Sitting beneath the trees in silence,
watching the sun slowly sink behind the mountain.
The sky turns all sorts of colors.
Pink. Orange. Purple.
The longer I sit, the more the colors fade away.
Then, there's just a black sky above me.
Tiny stars begin to pop up here and there.
More and more every second.
Suddenly the sky is filled with millions of beautiful lights.
A tear rolls over my cheek; yet
I still smile.
Because I know  you're up there in the stars.
Watching over me.
My guardian angel.
I wish you could be here,
but I find comfort in knowing you're always there.
Among the stars.

You treat me like I have a disease.
Like Im sick and if you come to close youll catch it,
but its not contagious I wish you could just see.

You see me around everywhere. For Gods sake I live with you.
But you still keep your distance
As if this so called disease is going to leave me and enter you.
You dont know the real me,
You dont  know the girl whos lost.
And hurt.
You judge me, but then turn around and say you love me.
I dont understand

How can you say you love me then turn around and abuse me?
Do you think I just let it go because I pretend I dont care.
No I dont, it tears me up inside and bring me right back to where this mess all began.
You pushed me to this.
Your words and actions push me further into this,
and still you act as if Im the one at fault.
Im the one with the disease.
But the only cure,
is your apology.
Which I know will never come.

There are only so many times you can be broken
    before it becomes impossible to put the pieces back together.
       There are only so many times your heart can be torn
          before it becomes impossible to repair.
            There are only so many beatings you can take
               before you stop fighting back.
                  There is only so much tearing down that can be done
                     before it becomes impossible to be rebuilt.
                        There are only so many times you can fall
                           before you can't get back up.

Straight hair, makeup, jewelry.
Nice clothes, contacts in.
Smiles, laughs.
Thats the only me you know.
The girl you see at school everyday.
Thats who you think I am
Thats the fake me.
Messy hair, glasses.
Sweats, tshirts, sweaters.
Tears, screams, cries.
Thats who I really am
Would you recognize me if you saw me at home?
Would you recognize that this is the real me?
The broken girl.
The girl whose lost.
Would you accept it?

Having you by my side is one of the most exciting things in life.
Knowing every day first period you're going to have some story to tell.
Whether it be sad, juicy, or downright hilarious.
I love you because you make me laugh.
I love the millions of ringlets in your hair.
I love blasting music and dancing in the car with you.
Windows rolled down, wind blowing.
Driving down the road giving zero *****.
Eating crap food we know we shouldn't be eating,
yet we still continue to eat.
I love your dimples when you smile.
I love your smile.
I love the way your nose crinclkles when you giggle.
I love the way you tell it like it is.
You are so real and down to earth.
I think thats why we get along so well.
I love it.
The way we can talk for hours on end about everything;
yet we can sit in silence not saying a word,
and it still means everything.
We just get each other.
There's nothing to it.

Sometimes we're lucky enough in life to meet someone special.
To make a friend that is unlike anyone else.
This person will alter your life, whether they realize they're doing it or not.
This friend will make things different.
Make things better.
They'll make the pain melt away.
They'll force all your worries away.
They'll make you laugh and smile in ways you never have before.
And it's the simple things really.
Singing obnoxiously in the car.
Saying hi in the hallways.
Giving you hugs when you're down.
Ahh yes those hugs, those are the best.
The hugs that are so tight they press all the broken pieces back together.
Those are my favorite.
You see, people that can change your life this tremendously, these are people worth keeping around.
These people you should never let go.
These friends, are friends forever.

If I could rewind time-
I would go back and fix my life.
I'd make good choices.
I'd make sure they were wise.
I'd go back to the beginning.
I'd go back to the start.
I'd go back and find a way to keep my life from falling apart.
I'd block certain people out.
And let others in.
I'd erase all thoughts of wanting my life to end.
If I could fastforward time-
I'd find out what will become of my life.
I'd find out all the mistakes I would make.
I'd find out all the risks I would take.
I'd find out all the stupid **** I would do.
I'd find out if I would ever have to courage to tell you *******.
I'd find out a was to avoid all the problems I would have to face.
I'd find out what I would have to deal with day after day.
But for now I have to live in the present-
I have to deal with all the constant surprise.
I have to deal with all the lies.
I have to deal with all the crap.
I have to realize that I may never get my life back.
I have to carry on day after day.
Even though all I want to do is run away.

Sitting out in the cold,
cuddled in a blanket.
Gazing up at the stars.
I know you're up there,
watching over us all.
Keeping me safe,
my guardian angel.
So many nights I've cried over you,
every day I miss you.
It hurts like hell with you gone.
You're still with me in a way though.
I can feel you beside me,
every step I take.
Every breath I take.
I know you're there girl.
I'll never forget you.
I miss you baby girl.
I'll see you again someday.

I miss you.
Every little thing about you,
I wish I could have you back.
Your smile...your laugh.
The touch of your warm body pressed against mine.
Your voice...your smell.
The way I felt so safe in your arms;
like nothing in the world could ever hurt me.
I miss your jokes and pranks.
The way you made me laugh and you wiped away my tears.
I miss all that we did together.
Playing in the park,
swinging on swings,
sliding down the slide.
We looked like fools, acting like we were 5 years old again.
But it didn't matter, because we had each other.
Tubing on the boat, surfing;
cuddling when it got cold.
Snowball fights followed by hot coco.
What happened to all our fun times?
Now they're just masked with your goodbye.
And I miss you like hell

Babe please don't be mad I'm doing this because I care.
I never want anyone to hurt you again.
Not even lay a finger on your hair.
I know it's scary not knowing what's going to happen next.
But ill be here though it all, at your worst and at your best.
I just can't stand the thought of you being hurt anymore.
Since you told me the story I've had night mares of police showing up at my door.
All too vivid dreams of that day the phone rings
GIRL FOUND DEAD AT SCENE.
I can't let this go and I can't pretend that I don't know.
I love you more than you could ever comprehend.
I can't watch this anymore, the abuse has to end.

It's the same reoccurring dream over and over again.
The same images playing over in my head.

I'm sleep deprived, always facing the same nightmare.
Waking up screaming gasping for air.
Begging God please don't take him, it's not fair.

I thought maybe you'd change.
Decided to let you back it.
But now you're just another mistake.

How could I be so stupid to trust you in again?!

Upset because you think it's finally come to an end;

This is just the beginning of something new.
I know without a shadow of a doubt you're all going to go far in life.
How do I know this?
I know because I see that each and every one of you is special.
You've all touched peoples lives in one way or another.
Each of you have touchd my life.

22-Never failing to make me laugh with the weird things you do and say.
15-Giving me rides, letting me help you coach.

Because all I have is pictures to stare at and wish he was here but no matter how much I stare and scream and beg God... He's not gonna come back. No matter how much I miss how. How much I need him. How much I want him he's gona. And I'm never gonna be able to accept that. And it's 9:30 at night in summer and I should be out with friends but I'm not because I'm too sad so I'm just laying here in bed curled in a ball crying so hard I can't breathe writing this stupid ******* paragraph because he's never coming back... And I can't cope with that...

visit my glass bottled friends hidden in my closet

Feeling stressed and need to settle down?

visit my friends in daddy's medicine cabinet, he won't notice

Each day as evening startsto set
The ace builds in her chest
She knows she must go to bed
And try to get some rest

She hugs her tearstained pillow close
When no okne is around
And cries for one she loved and lost
And screams without a sound

Other see her in the day
They think she's doing well
But every day as evening sets
She enters her own hell

Time hasn't healed her pain at all
Or quieted all her fears
So every night alone in bed
She sheds those silent tears.
Found this on pinterest. It fits me perfectly

You used to make me so excited
Like a little ******* Christmas morning
Smiling. Giddy. Giggling.
The days I knew I'd see you, I would wake up hours earlier so I had more time to get ready.
I had to look good for you.
Hair. Makeup. Clothes.
Everything had to be perfect
because you were perfect.
We were perfect
I'd stay up way past my bedtime thinking about you.
Replaying everything in my head.
Wondering if you were thinking of me.
I would think about your cute dimples, the way you laughed.
The way we could talk for hours about nothing...and everything.
You were perfect for me.
We were perfect
We did stupid things together.
I remember it all.
The snow, the whipped cream, the chotoes, the park.
Cuddling on the boat. Gazing at stars.
Perfect memories I'll never forget.
We were perfect
Then came the goodbye along with all the tears.
You said it was only temporary though.
You said you'd be back for me.
Then the letters started coming along with the phone calls.
I started becoming more okay with the distance, knowing it'd be over soon.
"I love you, I miss you, I cant wait until I come home"
You said all of this, but then left me.
Not even giving me answers, and all I want to know is why?
Because I thought...
*We were perfect

I can't explain why you're so important to me.
I'm not in love with you.
We've never been intimate.
Never even held hands.
There's no feelings between us,
but yet so many.
Maybe it's the way we've know each other since we were kids,
playing tag all day on the playground.
Or maybe the way we just got close last year,
but if feel like we've known each other for eternity.
Could it be how much we have in common?
Music, movies, star gazing.
Maybe it's the way we can talk for hours about nothing and everything.
One minute talking about what our favorite tupac song is, the next crying in each other's arms because cancer took him from me, and now he's taking her from you.
Maybe I like the way I feel so safe and comfortable around you.
Knowing you'll always stick up for me like you did the other night.
Are you important because I like the way my names roles off your tongue?
Or maybe it's the drunk conversations at 2am.
Or the 4am car rides,
both of us too high and tired to even know what we're saying.
Spilling all our secrets.
Maybe you're important because you're so much like me.
And if I can't save myself,
*at least maybe I can save you

I found all the old letters.
I read them all again, some twice through.
Smiling with all the sweet words you said.
Remembering how you said you missed me.
Reminicing on you telling me you wanted nothing more than just to hold me.
I found your old sweater.
The one you gave me that one day in the snow.
We spent hours outside acting like children.
Once we were done I was numb,
though you were freezing youself, you gave it to me selflessly.
Every now and than I put it on.
Sit on my bed all wrapped up in you.
I can smell you on it,
so badly I wish you were next to me in this bed again
I found our old pictures.
All our good times.
The endless memories.
Back when things were simple, happy, unbroken.
I found myself in tears.*
Thinking of everything we had.
I thought it would last forever.
We shared so much;
secrets, tears, laughs, and smiles.
Everytime I find something,
I break a little more.

Every day it gets one day closer to the end; and every day I get more and more scared. In a few months it will all be over. We will be out for summer, and you will be gone. Off on the next chapter in your life. I wish I could just freeze time. Stop it right in its tracks. That way I would never have to say goodbye. I want to just stay in this year forever, you a senior me a sophomore. I don't want to say goodbye. Will I ever hear from you? Will I see you again? I am scared to death you are going to forget about me. But I pray to God that you won't. Every night I beg Him "please don't let me lose her." I am terrified I am going to lose one of my bestfriends. I am scared I am going to lose the one who came along and changed everything for me. You gave me a different outlook on things. All the little things you do, all the little things you say; they mean more than you know. Simple things really. Chin up. "Chin up" you always say. "Stay strong" you always say. You are living proof that I am not in this war alone. You are my rock. You give me hope. A friend is an angel who lifts you up when your own wings have forgotten how to fly. You are my angel. You give me strength to get through the day. You picked me up when I had hit rock bottom. You have kept me from drowning all this time. When I fall, you catch me. Instead of letting me hit the cold hard ground. Who is going to be my strength when you are gone? Who is going to throw me a rope when the waves start to consume me? Because if you have not noticed, I am not too good at being strong on my own. Are we ever going to talk? Can I still call you crying my eyes out? Can I still text you if I need advice? Can I just freeze time so you do not have to go? Am I being selfish? I am happy for you; do not get me wrong. And I am proud of you. I am proud that you have made it this far; overcoming all the obsticals you have encountered. Proving to life that you can handle whatever is thrown at you. I admire you for that. I admire you for your kindness. I admire your dedication to your team. I admire the way you still laugh through that day, even though sometimes you might cry through the night. I am going to miss you. Every little part of you. Your smile. Your voice. Your laugh. Your weirdness. Your jokes. Your hugs, maybe that is one thing I will miss most of all. Why? Because they are different. They are not the crap quick hugs most people give. They are big. Warm. Compassionate. Loving. Comforting. When you give me a hug, I feel like maybe for once everything is going to be okay. They are real. This friendship is real. I just pray I do not become only a mere memory.
Thoughts that circle around in my head day in and day out.

I don't really think it's the darkness I'm afraid of.
It's what is inside the darkness.
Because inside the darkness hide the truth.
The lonliness.

Inside the darkness is tears,
screams,

Inside the darkness is a scared little girl,

Alone.
Honestly though, Im used to them now.
Surrounded by darkness...reminding me of everything I try to forget.
Tears roll over perfectly rounded cheeks as I cry out to the darkness.
Makeup stains cover my pillow. Dark black smudges.
My thoughts race.
I think of a million things at once, but at the same time

I get tired of the darkness so I turn on a light.
I need something to do.
I look around...search.
Find my crimson stained blades.
release
I put the blades away. Hiding them. Saving them for another day.
I turn my lights back off.
The house is deathly quiet.
Everyone else has been peacefully asleep for hours now.
Peace...I wish I could find it.
Insteaed I just lie awake in bed like all the other nights before.
Wondering;
will I ever know normal sleep again?
But I think my bodys becoming used to it,
because when the next day comes...Im not tired.

Pile on the coverup to hide the scars from my sleepless night.
Will it ever end?
Will I ever know sleep again?

And if it was and if I'm right about this sinking feeling I cant seem to shake, I just hope you know that I am forever changed because of you. You have brought me through a lot and looking at you I really see the real meaning of strength. I want you to know that every day I pray that God will always show favor to you and that he'll surround you with twice the guardian angles than you actually need. Because I never want you to hurt anymore. And I never want you to have to hurt again. You, the girl that does so much to make sure everyone else is happy, you deserve to be happy. Truly happy.

where did my bestfriend go?
We made so many promises to each other
That we would stand by each other.
That we would help one another.
That we wouldn't let high school get the best of us.
I meant it when I said it, but it's pretty obvious you didn't.
Parties every weekend.
Opening yourself up to anyone and everyone.
You complain you get taken advantage of too much, but it's your own fault.
Is it hard being that easy?
You complain that guys keep hurting you because they only want you for your body
and then they leave you...
well here's a little thought;
say NO once in a while
Holy **** is it that hard to stand up for yourself?
You told me you feel bad about all the things you've done with him.
And him.
And him.
You said you feel like you made a mistake...
but then you go and do it again.
It's the same story time and time again.
Listen though,
the first time you do something it's a mistake.
Every time after that,
it's a choice.

I am trying to build myself back up,
and all you do is hold me down.
I do not think I have ever been as hurt as I am now.
I hope you are happy.
I hope you had fun breaking me.
I hope you'll be happier when I am gone.
I guess down in my heart, I've known I am a waste of space. But actually hearing it out in the open, made it so much more of a reality
Damaged Jun 2013
Please I'm begging you;
don't be another hole in my heart.
Don't be another tear, another scar.
**Be the stitches that rebuild me
