Ari May 24
You can't possibly imagine
the dark thoughts that take me
over when the lights are out.
you can't possibly imagine how
familiar I am with the feeling of
sadness flooding out my eyes,
you can't possibly imagine,
how hurt I am just from being myself and scarring my own heart.
i always feel like there so much to say, no time to say it, no one to say it to, no reason to let it out because nothing much matters really. idk just not feeling right atm ik im pathetic should've just ignored this horrid poem 🙃

I have had too many words fill my mind,
too many thoughts fill my heart,
and too many tears down my cheeks,
so that I am left with no more ways to
express how much I adore him,
every stupid little thing about him
and yet,
he will never even think about the space I occupy.
life is crazy, I hate hormones and currently hating emotions.
I have thought of a billion poems to express the things I think about him,
none ever feel like enough 🥲 I think I've had enough of life

for her
I will move on
for her
I will grow
for her,
the happy little girl I once was with eyes full of wonder and a heart full of love.
for the little girl I grew from,
the one I still am inside,
the little girl who only wanted joy.
for her I will be better.
I have been feeling so weird lately, and today I thought of how sad the crazy little girl I used would feel if she knew what she became. So from now on I will live my life for her.

today I looked at my mom and saw the little girl beneath, the little girl just like me, trying to make it through life, pretending to be grown.
isnt it a little weird and wonderful how our parents and all the adults around us used to be kids like us, trying to fit in and just have fun? Maybe we should remember adults are just trying to do their best like us?

A stranger knocks at my door-
I opened it and saw,
Loneliness standing in front of me,
Saying, “Hello, old friend."
there are times when loneliness starts to sink in and sometimes we just accept it and greet it like an old friend.

I meet and read about girls who are sweet and carefree,
strong and independent, kind, smart, determined,
oblivious and lazy too,
each one unique with their own flaws, each one amazing and every one of them, beautiful in their own way.

I read about girls who are, oh, so, much like me,
women I admire, and women I adore, women who are made to be seen and heard never judged.
but why don't I see myself as my own women?
Whenever my friends criticize themselves I want to shout that it’s not true, they’re all amazing and even with their flaws deserve so much. But I never think that of myself, even when I’m also a girl with flaws.

For some reason,
I often hear girls speak this treason:
"I'm so fat"

no.
No.
nO.
NO.
NO!

You're skinny. You're in shape!
Next to me, you look like a stick.
I'M fat. I'm a big round rock.
But who cares? Why care?
Some of us are fat. Some of us are thinner.
why's must we worry and
detest our selves because of how we look?
we are more than just our bodies.
we are hearts. we are souls. we are human.
we are broken, scarred and beautiful
Seriously, I hate how insecure we all are because the beauty standards are so limited. And we all want to look a certain way because it seems 'perfect'. Well we aren't perfect. our bodies dont define us, but we've had it for our whole lives. been through everything with us. idk just suddenly felt need to write this out
