My parents warned me about the drugs in the street, but not the one
                with the big brown eyes and a heartbeat.

Stu(dying)

Stu(died)

To be yourself
in a world where you need to be everybody else
Now that in itself is a miracle.

The worst kind of sad is not being able to explain why.
                                                                           -Sincerely, Depression.

Some of you cared

None of you cared enough

And neither did I

The ego wants quantity
                                 But the soul wants quality.
                                                                           What if they both glitched?

"She's the kind of high only a deep soul can get ****** to."

What if after you die,

God asks you:

"So how was heaven?"

"He was poetry in a world that was still learning the alphabet."

"If you had cancer, would you yell at yourself for having cancer?"
                                                                                                     "No."
"Then why are you yelling at yourself for being depressed? Be gentle with yourself."

"Autumn is beautiful,

yet everything is dying."

"Don't bother walking a mile in my shoes, that would be boring.
                      Spend 30 seconds in my head. that'll freak you right out."

His eyes played silence

                  like it was an instrument

                                                the world had never known.

"She wasn't just talking about her hair when she said she cut off her dead ends for growth."

& when my mom asks me "what's wrong?"
I just say I'm tired because I don't have the heart
To tell the lady that gave me life
That I don't want it anymore

So many feelings go unsaid and maybe that's why most people write

best when their either falling in love or falling apart.

The end is near
I can't keep trying
Stop asking, "If I'm okay?"
I'm tired of lying
It's almost time to quit
Most fear death but others pray for it
They'll ask and wonder why they had never seen her cry
No answers found
I'll rot deep, Deep, DEEP, beneath the ground

"For I smile at people passing by,
But they pretend they didn't see
The one thing so much worse than this that shakes me to the core
Is the only time they talk to me is to say,
"You should speak more."

Even if I catch ten thieves out in the mountains,
I can't even catch the one thief that is in my heart

Where shall I go?
To a place where no lies
No fear
No hurt
No sorrow
And no pain follow
Where I will not be discouraged or oppressed
And here I stand
The front and in back
Here and there
I am everywhere
Nobody can hurt me
But me
Nobody can touch me
But me
Nobody can see me
But me
And I am the only one I can see
I can hurt me
I can love me
I can know me
I can hate me
What shall I choose?
It is up to no-one
But me

Society: "WHY don't you open up?"
                                      Because I'm afraid to tell people how I feel
                                       because it will destroy them, so I bury it deep
                                                   inside myself where it can destroy me.

"DON'T worry it's just a phase."
                                             So 3 am is just a phase, I've been sad for
                       years don't tell me it gets better. With depression, I'm
                                                          being murdered by my own mind.

"WHY don't you let your feels out?"
              Because I hate when people have to see me cry, because I'm
     suppose to be that strong person but at the same time I hate how
                                  nobody notices how torn apart and broken I am.

"Don't worry, you're fine."
                                                   So it hurts but it's okay.. I'm used to it?
                                           The only thing more exhausting than being
                depressed is pretending that you're not, but WHY can you
                                                not understand the hell inside my head?

"Why didn't you tell anyone?"
                                               I could say no one asked, but even if you
                                                                ­                   did, did you really?

"She sang in greek,
And prayed in latin
So she can ache in a language so old that even
the earth no longer remembers;
                                   so dead
that it has returned to dust."

Someone once said that
  Being asked "Why are you depressed? Life is beautiful!"
     Is like saying "Why do you have asthma? There is so much air!"
       Depression is not "I feel sad because..."
          Depression is "I can't feel happy"
              I think I'm afraid to be happy
                 Because whenever I get too happy,
                    Something bad happens and
                       It's like they care, but then in reality,
                                They don't.

"She wondered 'If I had woken up, would I have smelled his sadness, his desperation, and his detachment?

His death, her breath.

He told her once, she remembers, these two words have no other rhyme but each other.

If she could go back, she thinks---

She would open her eyes, instead of her heart."

I just wanted to let you know,

that I put your name on the bullet so everyone will know that you

were the last thing that went through my head.

"A stone thrown in a well and it's where your listening to that stone fall your whole life, never hearing it hit the bottom."

You become so used to the feeling , that when you find someone that makes you happy, you instantly push them away.

"We all want someone to notice but as soon as they do, we wish they never did."

I'm going to smile and make you think I'm happy

I'm going to laugh so you don't have to see me cry

I'm going to give so you can be who ever you want to be

I'm going to let you go in style

And even if it kills me

I'm going to smile

"having a body made out of thorns, and being constantly surrounded by balloons."

You chained my to a lion, and expected me to survive the fight

Yet when you pushed me off a mountain, I could finally see the light
