Today I woke up and told you I wanted to jump off a bridge and you said you would talk to me all day and call me as soon as you got home to make sure I was okay but at 11:19am you stopped texting me and I would've understood if it was because of class but school ended at 3:30pm and you didn't call me like you said you would and you didn't text me until 9:17pm and you were surprised when I said I was doing well and I guess what I'm trying to say is I thought I needed you to be there for me today but you weren't and I got out of bed and pulled myself together on my own and I made everything better on my own and you might need me but I sure as hell don't need you and I hope you hate that I can be happy without you I hope you wish you had held onto me tighter I hope you know I'm okay on my own I hope you know I don't need anyone

It's killing me from the

In perspective of everything, I am nothing.

A* minor blip in time and space.
Microscopic compared to the entire universe.

Maybe I am small, but I'm
Enjoying it anyways.

I just realized how small we really are, yet how amazing we can be. This is an acrostic, written to prove a point.
Smile bigger,
the day is bright!
Dawn has broken,
There's no more night.

Fear not, darling,
For I am here,
To ease your pain
And stop your tears.

I'll never leave.
I swear to you.
I'll be right here,
Right next to you.

Through all your days,
You will soon find,
That I'm all yours
In heart and mind.

So, fear no more,
I'm here to stay.
You'll find that I
Can't stay away.

Your eyes, they shine
Like stars at night.
Your smile is
The brightest light.

Please trust me, dear.
I'm all yours now.
No need to fear
About us now.

My boyfriend said "Well smile bigger, the day is bright!" and I wanted to turn it into a poem about us so badly, so I did. The meter of the poem turned out to resemble a heart beat, which I find very ironic and lovely.
Don't just stand there

and adjust your bowtie

So, Junior Prom was pretty fun
too much
too late
to sleep
too wide awake
too tight wound
to sleep
too bright tonight
too thirsty
to sleep
too good a book
too cool n wet
to sleep
too full of dinner
too crowded in bed
to sleep
two gulps
two pills
to sleep
When I was younger
my mom told me not to trust animals
And not to get too close
because no matter how nice they seemed
They might get scared
and bite me.

I don't know why she expects me
to trust people.
