It hurts knowing the person you thought was your friend
never wanted to be your friend
showing up at your locker every day to say "hey"
passing notes
listening
picking on each other
motivating each other
I thought he was my friend
he only did those things because he expected more
he didn't want to be my friend
he wanted to be my boyfriend
yet he knew I wasn't looking for anything
and now he's gone
because when he popped the question
I said....no
I'm not hurt because of what he was trying to do
I am hurt that the fact he did those things
and yet I thought he was doing those things
because he was my friend
Hi my name is Beautiful Tragedy ( well of course my disguise name)
I am a young survivor
I've faced many challenges and still facing them now
I suffer from anxiety
perfectionist
had symptoms of anorexia
paranoia
depression
cant stand criticism
shy
OCD
(not extremely bad)
I honestly care about what people say
I argue a lot
push people away
scared of people getting to close
have trust issues
have my battle scars
suicidal


I have many more problems

But these things dont define me
It gets in the way sometimes
but I manage to survive everyday
Those things are apart of me but its not who I am
I am a fighter
battling those monsters everyday
and one day I will win these battles
I will make it
Its easy for people to fall in love with me
but its hard for them to hold on
to stay...
How can you love someone like me
Can you show me how you do it
So we can both be on the same page
I wish you were the mother I needed

But don't worry

I'm going to be the mother I needed
for my children
I love you so much to the point
I went against my morals for you

I'm sorry to say this but it wasn't
worth it
I wasn't missing out on anything
I shouldn't have let anybody
get in between my
morals and I

Not only that it showed how much I love you
But it showed a lot about myself



I wish I can go back
Today is the day that we officially..... broke up
It just doesn't feel ..real?
I cried my eyes out ...more than a water fall can cry
then the pain stopped because I'm in a stage of disbelief
But its going to hit in the morning for sure
I'm not going to lie
I had doubts , yes I did
but it was only because I was scared...
scared of someone actually loving me
I just didn't want that to all go away
I feel nothing right now...is that bad?
But he's the one who left , technically
he didn't say it to me but I read it between the lines of his messages
I know he wanted to...he was afraid to be in the category I have for the boys that are considered like everyone else
Its sad to let go the hand of your other half
and watch him disappear in the past behind you
He questioned my love for him and I did to
But last night was the night I realized that I love him more than I thought I did
I guess you really don't know how much you truly love something until its gone
I also realized how much I took him for granted
While I was taking a shower I just let the memories of us drown me
like the time he kissed all of my insecurities
or when we both celebrated together on how I'm going to get myself together
and the first time he slept over
and the first time....he came over my house because ...I said I was crying
and that was the day....we started
I guess I didn't really understood how much he loved me until I took that gloomy and lonely shower
I never felt alone when I was with him
I felt like thats all I really needed to be honest
But I ******* up my fairy tale once again.
Your probably wondering why am I writing on here when I just got dumped
but its because I don't know how to express my feelings.....and writing is the way I could...writing helped me for most of the parts of my life
But I guess Im writing to say......love your partner as they come and just love.
I also want to be raw with you to show you not every relationship is perfect and this is not the end...
As she hides behind a mask
with pain and fear
She makes sure to keep it unkown
So no one comes near
Shes been fighting years after years
And shedding more tears
never in front of nobody
she will take off her clothes
Because her story would be told
You would look at her and you would never know
That shes the type of girl
That wants to go
But beneath her skin is someone you would want to know
you won't get that far because how the world made her
her heart is so cold
she doesn't want you to be affected
on what she's going through
so she will cover up all the information and clues
and she will comfort you with lies
If you really want to help her
and know her story
just look into her eyes
Our relationship was a beautiful corruption
Love

Love is just a word

until someone comes along

and gives it meaning


you are the meaning

of what love truly means
I'm sorry its really hard
I'm sorry that its hard for me to  love you
I never been in love
all I gave was love
and all they did was take it away from me
and left
she loves him
but shes going insane
trying to drive the sin away
while the temptation is trying to slither into her mind
and ruin her relationship
as she shakes and peals her skin of her fingers with her nail
knowing nobody can here her silent cries
shes on the edge of temptation
shes loves him with all of her heart and soul
but knowing that sin lingers in this world
shes trying to build a  brick wall around her trust
but knowing temptation slithers through the cracks of the wall
to inject the sins into her heart
to poison it with temptation
as she tries to fight them off
the poison makes her weaker and weaker everyday
while her wall is starting to collapse
she starts to cry while she cant push the sin off her
but sin makes her feel relief, safe and loved
as shes falls for the sins scheme
and runs away with sin
knowing she left behind her heart and soul  
her mind runs away with temptation
her lover watches her escape with  tears rolling down his eyes
knowing he felt like he wasn't good enough because
this wouldn't have happened if only he filled in her brick wall with more cement
"You can't love someone until you love yourself"

Before I thought this statement wasn't true but only because I was in love
and what that relationship made me realize is that this statement is so true.

you can't love someone until you love yourself because if you don't love yourself and get into a relationship you are going to rely on their love and convince yourself that you love yourself to because you love them and they love you. But if they were to leave you are going to fall apart because you relied on them for self love and happiness.
That's why before you get into any relationship you need to know your worth.
I thought I'd never be happy again
I thought I'd never fall in love again
But one thing I finally realized was that I can

I give myself so many excuses
But its because I am afraid and that's ok
I pointed fingers at everything and everyone
for how life is treating me but..
I didn't even look in the mirror
I am in my own way of love and happiness

Maybe its hard for you to because your in your own way to?
Nothing is impossible
Let love come in
Let Happiness come in
Step to the side
Let Yourself Be Free
Not only that I am taking a break from my relationship
but I'm taking a break from the world
just so I can be with me in my own world
to catch up with her
and just
talk
I hate that I don't love you completely

I don't want to love you with only  half of my heart

And that's why

I feel like I need to leave

But the words that slipped out of your mouth tonight

Broke me

Because tonight you came here

With the mindset of purposing

while I was here with the mindset of leaving
I miss who I use to be
I lost her
When I lost you

Every since you left
I was never the same
And I have to say
I wish I can take back everything I did after you left
I hate the fact that I can be living my best life
and still you cross my mind time to time
I know its getting worse because its to the point that
everything reminds me of you
Don't mix up my kindness for mix signals
Goes both ways and its not all guys
I don't understand ,what do you want from me ?
You always walk out on me and slams the door behind you
or leave it open
sometimes I leave it open waiting
maybe you will come back home
When I start to close the door , you knock and I let you in
and you leave again
sometimes when your gone
I set the table for two
because maybe you will come back  
but theres just to many hello's and goodbye's
I don't know why I keep opening the door for you
even when you walk out and slam the door and drive away
I set the table for two
and make your side of the bed
because I'm still waiting for you
But everytime I open the door
and let you in
you always hurt me and leave

one day, just one day

when you knock on my door
that door won't be opening
the day you leave again
there will not be a table set for two
or the side of your bed done
there will be no more waiting
there will be no more hello's and goodbye's
I see it in your eyes you wanna run
but I know you dont want to let go
you know what you want
but I know what I need
the lights on my porch will be off
the doors will be locked

No more knocking
no more coming and going
no more waiting
no more me and you
no more
that door will never open for you again

Now
your sitting on my porch
waiting
I'm sorry you had to watch me
fall in love with someone else
I know what it feels like
because I watched my lover
Fall in love with someone else
But my lover didn't have it any better
He watched the love of his life
Move on and fall in love with another man
Because he found someone else and fell in love with them
And his previous girlfriend fell in love too
Just not with him

But I dont understand why there is more falling and less loving
Don't be surprised
When you see me in my coffin
You already knew I was suffering

Hell came to earth
Now it's time for me to go to heaven
Just because I am breathing
Doesn't mean I am alive
You knew I had something
bottled up inside
The only thing you didn't know
was what was going on
in my mind
You didn't help me
You went to go hide
Now I have to pull the plug
of what was keeping me alive
So don't be surprise
When I die

So be ready

Prepare what you want to say to me
at my funeral
Go to the store
and buy me some flowers
My favorite are tulips
Prepare to put these beautiful flowers
on my coffin
So it can look a little more alive
You are the guy in my dreams
Every time I came home I loved to fall asleep
Because that meant seeing you
Every time I woke up felt like a nightmare
I wish you were in my world
But as long as the ladders of thoughts are there
I can climb up to your world to see you

I don't want to go
I hate saying goodbye

But as long as I am here
I know you will be here for me
and love me
and never let me fall

I wish you were real....

But you are in my dreams
Some times dreams come true

I hope mine does

One day I fell asleep
and you weren't there

I panicked and woke up

After school I kept looking for you in my dreams
Sitting on the bench waiting for you
But one day you just never came back

I just gave up

Next morning
Waiting for my mom to pick me up
Sitting on the bench
Just like in my dreams

Buried  my face into my knees
trying to connect to the other world
To see if I can see you again

But instead I cried

Until someone tapped me
I looked up fast scared

I couldn't believe what I seen

It was you...
The boy in my dreams

This felt like a dream
I thought I was in his world
But I wasn't
I was in my world

He left his world just for me..

I guess some dreams do come true
I need the pain to go away
No drugs and self harm can take it away
No medication numbs it
I didn't know what would calm my mind
Or slow my heartbeat
Once I started thinking about my death
I started to get addicted to the thought
I started to get high off the ways I could die
The feeling of relief knowing it could be over feels good
Overdosing myself with my suicide thoughts
Going in and out of consciousness
To the point I can’t tell from reality between my imagination
It feels too good to be true
This is why I love to sleep
It feels like I’m dead
Dreaming of what I want to come true
Wishing to stay asleep
Suicides thoughts are my drugs...I need it to keep me standing
But I dont want to be an addict
Probably one day I wouldn’t need to worry about waking up
Maybe my dream will come true
Maybe...my dream will be my reality
You have more of a reason to have my love
More then I do
Things started to get easier the moment I decided I wasn't going to settle for average.
Even if I move on
I can never stop loving you
I can never forget you
Even if I'm with someone else in the future
you will be in the back of my mind
but locked up in a box titled "happy memories"
Which they should be called "lost memories"
Even though your lost now
you still wonder in the past
and sometimes I cant help to take a step back
Because it brings me satisfaction just thinking about you
Even though they always tell me to move forward
but sometimes I can't help it
Even though I'm single now my heart is still taken by you
I can be with someone else
But I would still be loving you
Not finished but yeah
They destroyed me
I never knew why
But why me ?
Its been going on for so long
So I just got use to it
I welcomed myself home
To this destruction

They continued to tear me down
They beat the mindset of deserving it into me
So I thought there was something wrong with me

If they hurt me
]Why shouldn't I hurt myself
If nobody loves me
I shouldn't love myself

The darkness was my home
Throwing up was my sister
Negativity was my brother
Depression were my parents
The blade was my best friend
They were always there for me
People knew they were there for me
because it left its bandages on my body

People usually ask me
"why or did it hurt or what even brought you to that point?"

I just shrug my shoulders and said " I'm numb to pain, I'm numb to hurt. Its all I've ever been use to. When you've been hurt for so long....nothing hurts you"
She says " I want to die"
many people question why
she can't help to think about suicide
she feels like that's the only escape
her love ones say it gets better
so she waits
she says if she leaves it can take away the pain
and she will be walking with God down a golden lane
she tries to take the meds
but then she thinks about what would happen and taking her pain away by suicide
Then she realizes if she kills herself it wont go away
it will spread, to her love ones
it hit her
she collapse and cries
knowing she can't take her life
she won't get to experience life
and knowing its not a fairy tale
she doesn't live twice
she wont be able to see the good that actually exists
knowing she will never escape
that she will never be in a better place
knowing she can't sin
knowing she can't lie
knowing she can't commit suicide
shes just stuck in this world
she starts to become more sick

Its been ten years
shedding old tears
no one cant help her
she's already sober
she is just sitting in the chair
looking out her window waiting for this to be over
Once I stepped on the bus
The first thing I do
is look at everyone
and the first thing
that pops up in my head is
"what are their stories"?
I never took the time
to actually think about what people go through
do they fight with demons
in their head like I do ?

As I take my seat
I look at my people again
Some are laughing
Others are sleeping
and those who are just
calm
All they do is look out the window
Like me

I always assume
Based on peoples face expression
if they go through things
And those that have so much life
Are ok

Until one day
the girl that everyone calls "rich"
was riding the city bus
the happiest girl in my school broke down today
wanting everything to be over
the guy that everyone thought was poor
because of the way he dressed
paid his daughters tuition for college
out of his pocket

Thats when I realized
I can't be judging a book by its cover
Because all this time I just assumed
while the answer was in me all this time
and that was
ME
I am an example
of what I didn't believe
I am that girl that puts up a show for people
that I am happy
when it is all an act

(that's when I snap out of it)

I looked around one last time
But this time I looked through the eyes of reality
so when I looked at my people
I seen all of their demons behind them
They all looked at me back
And seen what I was seeing
They seen mine behind me

Believe it or not we all go through something
You will be surprised of who they are too
He puts his hand gently on my back and slowly guides me to him
Holds me in his arms, my chest against his
So close that I can't tell my heart beat from his
Looking into his eyes big blue eyes
I ask him " do you love me?"
He puts my hand gently on his chest and his heart beat said it all
would I make it ?
does he like me ?
would I be successful?
will I make through high school?
why don't they like me ?
why are they looking at me ?
what grade did I get on all my subjects ?
is my family proud of me ?
probably not
will I go to college?
maybe if I don't pass the exam?
why are people so mean?
how can I solve this problem ?
what do I want to be when I get older?
maybe a ..vet...or a construction worker....or maybe a psychologist
am I good enough?
why does god let these things happen?
why do I feel so worthless?
why am I constantly thinking?
why cant I rest ?
why am I thinking about constantly thinking
I cant help to think
because that's all I do
I think about everything
and I don't know why
my mind overflows with questions, thoughts, what ifs and more  
I over think a lot
my mind is overwhelming to the point my brain might collapse or dysfunction
I cant help to think about when will this be over
.....im over thinking to much
Don't do things because of others
Stop trying to "prove" to them you will be great
Its going to backfire
How about you start doing things
for you
let "you" be the reason not others
Start to prove to yourself
And watch things change
Is this the way you want to die?
Will love to hear yall responses! I asked this question because I want to know if you are satisfied where you are right now ? If no then that means its time to change. Not everyone gets a chance to live. So take an advantage of life. Life is hard trust me but you can do it if you only push through the rain.
Wishing you can do something about it
but you cant
its your pain
but in someone else's hands
slipping through
waiting for the answer
to see if everything is ok
looking on the other side of the room
not able to move or do anything ,but watch
just there waiting
for the news
it ***** knowing your not in control
of something that is having to do with you
something that hurts
but someone else is carrying
the thing you want to fix
but you cant trespass the cation lines
just wait on the other side
You are so beautiful
you are one of a kind
I cant help from noticing you
and staring into your eyes
your silky brown hair that flows down to your back
or the freckles on your face that lights up Gods place
and don't forget that beautiful smile
that you try to keep in a straight line
but you cant
because you love to laugh and smile
one phrase you like to say is " I'm fine "
I wish you were here
but your just an imaged that I made up in my mind
Love is a drug
But even addicts can get better
As he reminds me of everything I did wrong
breaks me little by little
slowly and painfully
the words slicing my heart like a knife
I already have enough scars as it is
I don't need to be reminded
I already know
I can't help it
I wish I wasn't like this but this is who I am
I am DIFFICULT

you know who he reminds me of....
he reminds me of my ex
he use to point of everything I did wrong

and you know what they both remind me of

they remind me of how difficult relationships can really be
and that I can deserve someone better
crying alone in the dark
looking at my body with so many marks
stroking my scars that people made
wishing they can all fade away
I get out from my corner
look in the mirror and see myself
grab the box off the shelf
take my friend out that brings me joy
slide the blade across my wrist
hearing the sounds of the devils hiss
crying with so much pain
while blood is pouring down like rain
I feel myself slowly drained
look up at the ceiling
praying to god to give me healing
this is sad that I have these feelings
I just want to be happy
I didn't choose to feel this way
this is because of all the pain
with laughter and remarks
all these cold hearts
hug myself with my ****** arms
take away this self harm
someday this suffering will come to end
and I'll hopefully go to heaven
She was the girl that loved to draw at night
All her drawings were out of sight
She was most artistic at night in the bathroom
The more she drew, the less space she had, it was going to run out very soon
She kept a secret that no one knew
Not telling anyone, her work grew
Her drawings were like no other, no paper or pen
Shes been drawing since she was ten
Before her friend can leave, he asked if she was ok
That's when she broke down and told him to stay
They sat on the bridge watching the passing cars
She rolled up her sleeves and showed him her scars
regretting her decision, crying not knowing what to say or do
Then he rolled up his sleeves and whispered "Its ok..I draw too"
You are not alone, someone is going through the same thing as you or even worse.
My work but got the idea from another author and used one of their sentences
A lot of people have silent cries and are quietly asking for help
She was young when she committed
Her friends yell her name
but its like shes not there
shes gone
her mind committed suicide a long time ago
its going insane now

So whats the point of living
when your not there
her heart is already on the edge of giving up
with all the blows that it took

its like living without an soul
its just a body
not really a corpse
because she is still breathing

but shes not alive either
I'm sorry I'm not the girl you wanted me to be anymore
I left her behind , shes lost in the past
Shes not who I am anymore
The girl you want me to be is just a memory
I told her
" I don't want to lose you, I don't want you to die "
But before I can say anything else she yelled
" you already lost me along time ago, I'm just a walking body
that one guy I saw that afternoon
he looked strangely odd
I didn't even bother to introduce myself
but surprisingly he came to me
that first glance
I knew he was the one
not noticing his silver tongue
I fell in love
I gave him everything
I was their for him
I supported him
I loved him
the only thing he had was his silver tongue
he only had his compliments which didn't bother
but he hasn't showed it with action
that day he went to work
I haven't seen him ever since
I only remember the foot steps he left on the muddy ground
so that afternoon I went to the same place to see if he will come back
but he never did
I guess I never loved him
I fell in love with his silver tongue
As crazy as it sounds, its true
It hurts to say or think this
but at this point
I can slowly see you better off with someone else
that isn't me
and the sad thing is
its starting not to bother me anymore
LOOK

I am SORRY that I am the way I am

I'm sorry that I start to panic when someone touches me
especially a guy
even though if its in a friendly way
I just can't help to flinch
I always think about the people that hurt me in the past

I am sorry that I constantly break down
I cant control my mind for consuming my emotions
my mind is always at war with my heart
I cant help to get flash backs of the past of what they did to me

Im sorry for hiding my feelings
I get nervous to tell you because Im scared of upsetting you
I had people that I upset when I always told them how I felt
I'm also not an open book
I even feel vulnerable just someone looking at the content of the book

I am sorry that I always ask for reassurance
Im just trying to get it memorized in my head so I can believe you
I want to make sure your being honest
your answers dont change
and you mean it
People drilled bad things into my head so I cant help it

I am sorry for constantly apologizing
I always think its my fault
I grew up people putting the blame on me
sometimes I can't tell if its my fault or not

LOOk
I
I ..am
sorry that I am me
Even with all this air in the world
Its still hard to breathe
They tell me that I am strong
No, I'm actually not strong
My heart is strong ,not me
My heart is the one that been shattered multiple times
but its still pumping blood , its still keeping me alive
if it wasn't for my heart I wouldnt be as strong as you think I am
My heart is the true fighter here
Give me your all
put your past in my hands
and watch me heal it
and make you look forward
for your future
you don't need to worry anymore
I will set you free
I will turn your cocoon into a butterfly
don't be afraid to show me
who you really are
give me your all
your heart
love
past
present
give me your future
and I'll give my all right back
I promise
but it won't come all together
because of everything bad
that has happened to me
so be prepared
to have my all in
pieces
What should I call this poem?
Thank you for believing in me
Now its my turn to believe in myself
