Did they welcome you back to those halls?
To the insanity?
To the familiarness of it all.

You knew the rules, the people, everything,
when you came back.
Felt the same feeling again.
Maybe you would be even more tired, too far gone.
Maybe this time, it would be the last.

You would stay.

She is Beautiful.
Helena J Jan 2014
She is beautiful, and she is my friend.

She used to be blonde, but now has a mix of brown and red.
She's smaller than me, but about a year older.
She's smarter than me, and also taller.  

She is beautiful, and she is my friend.

She's kindhearted, and too lovely.
She's better than me, better at trusting people than me.
She knows what to say, and knows when to call *******.

She is beautiful, and she is my friend and I'm falling in love with her.

Did you miss the fact,
that I'm hellbound?

That I got my sentence long ago,
   and been walking here on borrowed time.
They even say I'm the devil.

Didn't it stop you?
   Maybe you missed it.

I feel sorry for you if you did.

Sorry.
Helena J Dec 2013
I don't say sorry, not often. Especially when I don't mean it.
   I don't know why, I just can't sometimes.

It feels wrong, like I'm giving away my power over myself.
Because "sorry" is a powerful word, really.
                   It feels like your pride gets hurt, and sometimes, that's all people have.
It's you admitting a mistake.

Sorry should be easy to say.
Sometimes I refuse to say it.

        And sometimes it's all I say, because it's all that I am.

Long sleeves, even in the summer and spring.
You feel them when you run your hands over your arms.
They remind you.

            The scars.

Sometimes they disappear over time and you get to breathe -
be normal, for a while.
But that is the thing.

             Only for a while.

You got to feel free that time, do you remember?
(how could you forget?)
But as it always does,

         it came crushing and trashing back.
         That feeling, that feeling you keep trying to suffocate.

Back to the long sleeves.

"my heart? is it there?"
Helena J Dec 2013
The thing about my heart is,
i don't know if i have one.

I know i have a heart,
but i mean a heart.
Feelings. Emotions.

Do you know how many times i've been called heartless?
Made of stone?
Black as can be?
Completely cold.

But you know,
it's a lot ******* easier that way.
I don't like feelings.
You can get mocked because of them.
You can get hurt.

Why would i want to feel that,
when i can be made of stone.

Little boy, I know You.
Helena J Dec 2013
I finished a book yesterday.
I'm gonna start a new one, soon. And waiting for more ones.

Books are great, really.
They kind of hide you.
    They hide from exactly what ever you want.
Maybe it's your family.
Or your past.
Or everything, which is a very wide department, but very true.

But the book I was talking about.
I got it. I really did.
And it was about this boy. This boy who saw everything, and nothing.
      I got the book.

would i die for you?
Helena J Dec 2013
I have two sisters, a father, and a mother.
I would die for any of them.

But dying.
Is it because i don't want to be here?
     Or is it because of my love for them?

For my father, i would die out of love.
For my mother, i would die out of love.
For my twin sister, i would die out of love.
For my older sister, i would die out of love, and go to all ends of the world for her.

I would die, out of love, for all of them.
       But also to get out of this life.

"Has poetry saved lives?"
   Maybe.
"How would you know?"
   I don't.
"Then why even answer?"
   I have hope.
"Hope for what?"
   Hope that it hasn't.
"Oh."
oh sweetie, i'm in your head.
