regret
regret is the most painful feeling
more painful is the regret you feel
for making her hate you
than the hate itself
regret is the moment
when you are thinking:
this is it; the things I have done
have made it come down to this moment
when I want to end everything
everything that could be
all for the mistakes of my past
all my regrets
gone in a moment
the moment that ends it all
when I will not feel regrets
of what I have done
in the past
and I won't have to be afraid
of the future
that I never knew
nor will I feel the regret I have left behind
for ending everything else
all the good that could be
all gone in 1 moment
1 lonely moment
all because you want to leave your regret behind
but you leave everything behind
and everyone
everyone is left behind
to carry the burden of your regrets
and for them to regret your last decision for you
they regret not knowing
not helping
you
what they could have done
is not have helped you not have regrets
but to move past them
so
you may lose all your regret
to make this decision
and end it
but you leave all else behind
ALL ELSE
to regret your last decision
but
if decided not
you won't regret it
and the feeling
of alleviation and relief
of numbness and comfort
combined
into your being
into your mind
is as strong of a feeling
as the regret
that started your pain
the regret
that this time you chose not to create
DO NOT let the last thing
-the last feeling-
you leave behind
on this earth
in this world
be a feeling
of regret

Silence
the   blood    rushing    in   my   ear
sitting  so   still
my   silent    heartbeat    rocks    me    gently
reminding    me   i'm   still   here
for   a   single   moment    my   mind   stills   briefly
and      focuses     on      a     single     moment     of       Silence

**** HIM

please stay safe

Dear Future Me,
      I have always looked up to you.
You make mom proud, which I've always tried to do.
You know what you want, and you know who you are.
You stand steady on ground, while you reach for the stars.
You are confident, and you love yourself.
You are honest, with you and everyone else.
You know your flaws, and you embrace them.
You know your dreams, and continue to chase them.
You make plans, then carry them out.
You set goals, and don't give into doubt.
You are friendly and kind, even to haters.
You crave commitment, and stay away from the players.
And finally,
The best version of me.

"You accept the love you think you deserve."

what do they see
when they look at me
to know the things they think
tears or laughter it might bring
I want to know
but yet I don't
behind the masks of this cruel world
thoughts can hurt or uplift this little girl

If you could say I'm pretty
Then I would say you're nice
But if you could see right through me
You'd see my ugly life
Then you wouldn't want me
It's too high of a price
For a girl you thought was pretty
And she thought you were nice
If you could have liked her simply
You would have changed her life

waking up next to you
the way you look at me
i can always tell when you're lying
and you know when i'm about to cry
we can finish each other's sentence
but you still surprise me every day
you know how to make me laugh
i know what you want
we want the same thing
true love

Whatever happened to the choices that we thought we had?
When we were younger we were happy but - now we're sad.
Everything was always simple - either black or white
Maybe cause no one ever dared to ever shed the light
On our innocent minds, that couldn't take up the real world -
Now we wake up in the real world -
Now we're so scared of the real world -
That nobody dares to change it -
We're changing sadness to anger -
And he goes home and blames her -
And their children are learning -
From violence and hurting -
That this is the answer -
Changing from happy to sad to changing to anger.
That's not the change we need -
To show your children -
They are the world, they are the future, and they are the difference
Between this world - and theirs
Between the ground floor - and the stairs
They can't move up -
If we bring them down -
You don't need to grow up -
To make a change -
One random act of kindness -
Works like a chain -
People pay forward -
And we all lean towards -
A better place for us -
But it's never enough -
Because there's always someone suffering
