you sat in my car while i drove you home.
i was so worried  you would be put off by
my mess
or the music i played
pr my profile facing you wasn't flattering
so i don't remember anything you said
or when you held my hand

I'd rather hear
silence
than your
*******

Caught somewhere between
happy and
sad
but i can't tel the difference
i have felt one feeling
for some time
now
and the only change i can feel
is in the temperature in the air
and its sad
not me
but the air
is cold and its damp
and its perfect for telling me to keep on holding
everything inside
i wish that i could say
exactly how i feel
but what am i suppose to say
when i dont even know

"if I killed myself tonight, the stars would
still appear, the sun would still come
out, the earth would still rote, the
seasons would still change.. so why not?"

**** this post
**** this post so much
want to know "why not"?
how about the way your bestfriends older sister will throw up by the sidewalk
of the road because shes crying so hard
how about the way your bestfriend will sob for weeks in her showers, in
her bedroom, in the bathroom at school
how about the way your mother will cry every time she looks at herself in the mirror and pictures herself bringing you home
how about the way your fathers eyes will NEVER stop mirroring the
image of your hanging body
how about the way your boyfriend will sit in his room in silence, unable to
eat or sleep, or even ******* shower because why would he want to
continue with out you?
how about the way the girl who called you sister and will start crying every
time she sees your parents?
how about the way your family will sit in your house after the funeral
looking blankly at one another because god knows they cant find a
******* thing to say that doesnt just float through the air where you
should be walking
how about they way your sister will wake up every morning and see you
door and convince herself that you could still be there, just sleeping in
your bed
how about the way your exboyfriend will come over and pull your clothes
from the drawers and cry while he holds them desperately to his face to
breathe in whats left of you

dont you dare tell me it wont change things
there may be starts in the sky and wind in the air and sun in the clouds
but without you, we dont want them

Everyone is always so afraid
Of getting hurt
But Jesus Christ
I wanna fall for someone who will never love me back
Put my heart in his hands and clutch my chest as he tears it apart
I'll let him reach into my ribcage and break every bone
When I kiss you
I hope you bite my tong till I bleed and beg you to stop
Everyone is so scared of pain
But you need pain because on those nights when you sit on your bedroom floor, convinced that you're dead, and that there's nothing inside you
Those old texts from him will still make you cry
And that picture of your two kissing in the rain will make you scream
And it'll hurt like hell
But ****, at least you still feel something.

I grabbed you
and asked you how I
could make you
happy
and you looked at
me and told me
you'd be happy if
i was happy and
i tried so *******
hard to fix myself
but you were gone
before i could even
smile
