I don't get it
I don't understand
I don't know

I guess the real question is
Do I know anything?

I didn't know Seth would be abusive
I didn't know he would manipulate me
I didn't know he would force me into situations
I didn't want to be in
I didn't know he would use me as a *** toy

I didn't know I'd turn out just like him
I didn't know I'd force all of my emotions
Onto the people I love most
And expect them to fix me

I didn't know I'd lose the man I cared about most in this world
Because I'd mistreat him
Because I'd put so much pressure on him
That he couldn't even function

I didn't know that my little brother
Would look me in the eye
And tell me he didn't care about me

I didn't know, that because of Seth,
I'd be afraid of men for the rest of my life
I didn't know that the littlest thing
Could trigger flashbacks and panic attacks

I didn't know I'd be cursed
With severe depression
And extreme anxiety
I didn't know I'd be on medication
To be society's "normal"

I didn't know anything
I didn't know any of it
I didn't know
But here I am
Stuck with all of these things that I've learned
With all of the things, I didn't know
But that I know now

I sort of wish, I still didn't know
All of the things I know
I wish I didn't know because that way
I wouldn't be so broken
I wouldn't be so hurt
And I wouldn't drag everyone down with me

But now I know
All of these things
That I didn't know
And I'm stuck with it
The past, present, and future

I'm still learning
I'm still thinking
I'm still regretting
But I keep moving
Because I have to
Even though there is a lot that I don't know
Love..
so easy yet so difficult
                       to be found
I never thought I'd be
Unstable

I never thought
I'd want to die

I never thought
The thought of cutting myself
Would be so appealing

How am I so
unstable?

I take all of these
pills
Just like I'm told

I talk to a counselor
But I still feel unwhole

It seems as if no matter what I do
I'm still unstable

My mind is in constant
panic

Thousands and thousands
Of whispers
Rush through my head

Everything up there
Has been painted black

So now I can't see
I can't hear
I can't do anything

Because I'm so
Unstable

My body moves
My body breaths
My heart pumps
My skin bleeds

But I'm....

I'm gone.....

I've disappeared

Never to be seen again

Because my mind...

*Is UNSTABLE
I loved you with gentleness and you threw it all away.

You liked mysteries and sneaking out late.

You told me I was a distraction and she was a drug.

When you were sad my calmness was nice. But when she was around you didn't even remember my name.

I thought in my mind writing your name a hundred times in my journal would make you love me more.

But my eyes were brown, it reminded you of dirt.

Her eyes were blue and you realized you loved the sea more then you loved me cause I reminded you of the trees.

Silent days when you were reading in the woods, but you were on vacation when you realized the sea was your favorite place to be.
I feel it closing
Sweet peace of eternal rest
And I welcome it

There are numbers
that add up to
the madness that is
my heart.

They subtract fuel from my being
and divide me
from my goals.

Hashtag Madness.
Hashtag Maniac.
Hashtag Morbid.

Perhaps a hashtag
is really just a buffer.

The day is done, I’m tired.
I stayed up until 12, I do every night now.
I count down the hours until I can say I made it another day.
I made it another day it’s 12 o clock.
No cuts on my wrist.
I made it another day and I owe it all to you.
I love you, you have made life so bright, so special.
Even though we have not known each other long, I know I want to be with you for as long as I live.
I want to be able to snuggle with you someday.
Once I’m finally there with you, I want to whisper in your ear and say how much you truly mean to me.
Bad days and fights will come our way, we will figure it out though, I promise.
Good night, I love you.
We both made it another day.
I find it easier to try and convince everyone.
Even myself that I no longer love you.

Baby, all of it is so much easier.
It's easier than admitting the truth.

All my love for you.
Has nowhere to go anymore.
But just your
heart feels empty
And soul feels cold
Like the little warmth your heart did have one day
Just disappears the next
And your body is just tired
You feel lost
But you dont know whats missing
So you search aimlessly
No sense of direction
