I don't know what's worse;
To fall in love again eventhough you know you're going to get hurt,
Or to shut the slightest bit of feelings out

They say we learn from our mistakes,
Which now I know is a complete lie,
Cause' I can still look at you,
And bare the tears from my eyes

"i want to be the only ******* one"

I look into the full length mirror,
You all know I'm not good enough,
One ugly face, one messed up body,
Coping with emotions is straining tough.

I look into the full length mirror,
And I don't know what to feel,
All I know is that the walls are caving in,
And nothing feels quite real.

I look into the full length mirror,
And I see the girl I said I wouldn't be,
A girl with so much self consciousness,
Who would take a jump to feel a little free.

I look into the full length mirror,
I see the fake smile on my face,
Hiding hurt and bleeding sadness,
Isolating myself in my own space.

Lyra
Prologue:
Once upon a time, I had three guy friends,
whom on which I could always depend,
pair by pair we could've conquered the world,
with nothing but our little fingers twirled.

Chapter A:
The first boy, Boy One,
our journey had begun,
in a classroom of twenty four,
when both of us wanted more.

He was loyal and loving,
devoted and caring,
but everybody could see,
he was falling in love with me.

I started to put galaxies between us
the teasing and comments grew vexatious.
So, as expected, we grew apart,
the very first injury of my indecisive heart.

Chapter B:
Then after that came along Boy Two,
the second boy wasn't very good with rules.
But, I guess, that was what pulled us together,
here's to hoping this round would be better.

We used to be in love, Boy Two and I,
and after we were over, we never walked by.
We blamed each other for breaking our hearts,
but little did we know, fate didn't want us apart.

We reconciled after being thrown in a class,
but this time as friends, no longer treading on glass.
We became attached, inside jokes and all,
precisely why nothing prepared me for the fall.

The night before his birthday, I promised to call,
"I'll wish you at midnight, or not at all".
His careless reply hurt like a stab in my chest,
'Sorry, I'm calling her,' he confessed.

The betrayal cut through me like a knife,
I could feel him slipping through my fingers, not once but now twice.
Since then, I've been replaced as his best friend by her,
lesson number two has now occurred.

Chapter C:
Boy Three was the friend who was always around,
I'd see him here and there but he'd never seem to make a sound.
Suddenly, one day, we realized we grew on each other
addicted to thrill of walking the line between friend and lover.

Boy three and I would keep each other on our toes,
we'd savor the ships 'cause hey, whatever goes.
The romantic tension was obsessive and electrifying,
but it blew up in my face, and sent me flying.

During this period, I befriended a group of seniors,
who were all laughs & wits, it was nothing peculiar.
However, Boy Three got terribly protective,
we had an immense fall out, both of us too sensitive.

We somehow turned against each other,
silently stabbing and pushing further.
He'd spit about me to his clique,
making everyone doubt me, as we speak.

We said words we could never take back,
and hurt each other beyond repair.
In our hearts, we knew things would never be the same,
thus the third lesson has now taken its place.

Epilogue:**
This was the story of my three guy friends,
whom on which I could always depend.
Once upon a time, I had three guy friends,
but honestly it doesn't matter, I lost all three in the end.
Not a very good one, I'm afraid. Just a little something to let out the pressure building.

Forever is a long time.
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side.

This is for the people on the verge of letting go.
For the people who hide their sadness that the world would never know.

She was a girl; outspoken.
She got her heart broken.
She wore a beautiful dress filled with unseen; harsh words; scratches
And under that dress lied her heart sewed up with patches.
the truth is pretty ugly.
