1.** You were my first love. I'll never forget you, but I will also never forgive you.
2. You were the one that was supposed to be my savior. Instead, you left.
3. Thank you for being such a good friend. I'm glad I met you.
4. You, you, you consumed me. You tore me to pieces. I'm glad it didn't work out.
5. We used each other.
6. I wish I could love you.
7. With you, I feel cheap and *****. You were beautiful, but now you're tainted.
8. Your smile is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. And that scares me. A lot.

A-N-X-I-E-T-Y
The more you think about it, the worse it gets
But I can't stop thinking about it
Sweat pouring off of me
Hands shaking
Headaches, dizziness
Feeling like every eye is on me
Exhausted after a mere hour in the public eye
Always checking, far too self-aware
A rolling, tossing, turning sea in the pit of my stomach
Nervous babble
Uncontrollable thoughts
Awkward silences
Insecure thoughts
Nervous nervous nervous nervous
Like I want to claw out my own insides just so they'd stop
JUMPING SPINNING CRASHING
around inside of me.
And there's an ever-present twitch in my neck in my eye in my brain
Making me tense, ache, twitch, check, check again
My whole body, tense and taut, ready for fight or
flight flight flight.
Ready for flight!
Oh how I want to run away....
Away from the eyes that connect to brains that connect to thoughts that make judgments that tell others that then make their own judgments and
TEAR MY INSIDES OUT!
I just want it to stop.
The voices, the thoughts, the fears, the sweat, the tightening muscles...
Because I can't live this way for much longer
