looking into her eyes
i could tell it told a stroy
a rare thing
told me everything she was afraid of
that look on her face told it all
but most importantly
the one thing i remember as clear as crystal
those blue eyes that drowed my sorrows away and made me think of something
someone
other than myself for once
they told me id never understand
little did she understand ive been through the same she'd been trough
fought the same battles
lingered apon the same questions and wondered the same thoughts
pictured the same scenerios in my head that we wanted to happen
and even thought about things the same way
it was perfect
i knew her just as well as she knew me
from just her eyes i could see the bittter past she wasnt willing to share
and the eager future she was excited about continuing
but loosing hope because everyone had shot down her dreams
fearless but had the courage that someday shed let all of the bad thoughts go
shed get rid of the deomns for good
she win the game of life
she knew she had it in her
the resononing behind becoming a better person for herself
felt good because she knew it wasnt for anybody else
although looking into her eyes i saw
hatred
jealousy
betrayl
traits i noticed
things id been familiar with and i just wanted to tell her weveall been there
to not trust every single person you meet
to take off that elecrtic smile that brightened up the room
to not open up so easily to those who were being nosey and desperate to break into the source of someone elses problems to cast away the shawdows of theirs for just a  
moment
to not run off with the boy who had the pretty smile and differet personality because he ends up being the same guy as the rest
to tell her to turn around and notice the nice guy
the guy who cared about her all along who would do anything for her
protect her and fight for her no matter what
but no matter what she wouldnt listen
she wanted the bad guy
figured he knew a way to make the  
pain go away
and indeed he did
which made more pain present in those eyes that were once as blue as the ocean
turn as black as the sky on a night there are no stars to look opon
i wanted to tell her all the things growing up i wish i  knew
looking into her eyes i saw that reflection staring back at me and telling myself
"im that little girl that once was you"

and i mean its me and you
two complete opposites  
in the matter of knowing what we want
besides the fact that we want each other
going different ways in life
and wanting different things
having it different ways
but wanting things to stay the same
living with the reality that things might never go back to the way they were
i'm content with the idea of never knowing
and you're consistent that i try and figure it out
figure myself out
but i can't
not right now

i feel alone often, vaccant like no one can see me but i can see everything else thats going on around me & that nothing i do is relevent idk i have those days where i just isolate the thought of being isolated & ik how u feel my bestfriend ditched for another person & found another bff too & idk it made me sad for the longest & still does & its ****** bc were not close anymore & i miss us being close you know, idk i miss the memories i think thats the big thing & the lesson u get out of things, the memories mean more than the events themselves, dependent on the situation
i wrote this a while ago, advice to someone else, and now seeing what i've learned is fascinating

i used to be the girl who didn't eat,
the girl with the voice in the back of her mind tell her awful things about herself
i was the girl who didn't want anyone elses help
refused it
the way my friends looked at me
made me proud
proud to know i knew something they didn't
proud to know i was hiding something
often they'd ask
"are you hungry?"
"why aren't you eating?"
"you're not turning anorexic are you?"
and even coming from your friends those words can hurt
and you can shake it off
smirk it off
walk away
but knowing a little of that was a bit of truth made me all clear to you
they knew
they said
"i'm only trying to help"
yeah trying to help me get fat
i thought
those demons in my mind
the way i looked at myself in the mirror
all i saw
HATE
my legs
to huge
hated them
my stomach
brings me back to that summer day
i was ready
ready to swim
and was finally feeling confident
had just bought a new bikini and was so excited
put my new bikini on
and my cousin comes in and says
"you're stomach is disgusting'
do you know how that feels to have someone say you're stomach is disgusting
made me feel ******
made me feel insecure
as insecure as id ever been
i covered up from there on
i stayed in
i made sure no one saw me
i kept cover
and until this day
i'm still that girl
with the thoughts that haunt me and tell me
"no one hates you more than you hate yourself"
"you're stomach is disgusting"
"you're fat, worthless, useless"
and until this day i struggle with the reality of ever living up to MY reality
of looking in the mirror and seeing what i want to see
and dreading the fact that ill never be
the girl with the pretty smile, so skinny and perky personality
and even those girls
have so much (on the inside) you don't see
a little story about my past, opening up a little i'll admit, i wish i could still be the girl i used to be, happy, but i know ill never fully get back to that place, makes me strive harder to get to that place, but the more i strive its like taking a step forward and fifty steps back

baby its been a long day
and i cant sleep
up thinking about you
and counting "sheep"
meaning the demons in my mind that surround my thoughts with negativity
each and every step of the way
they're right there
every turn
every twist
every fall
they're right there,
to follow me, to make sure i keep them in my head
to make sure i don't forget the person i used to be
to make those thoughts come back in a split second without impulse
to make my stomach cringe
keeping it knotting up to make sure i feel the pain
to have my throat dry as having cotton mouth from the first time we smoked together,
and eyes water like rain drops we felt during our first kiss
such things in my mind,
the power they have over me
i guess they just need somebody to love them to
just as i used to love you

i can replay the conversations in my head a millions times
picture your laughter
the loud chuckle they said always bothered everyone
said you were too loud
to obnoxious, annoying
i loved it
loved when you laughed
it was that i loved something about you that everyone else seemed to despise
and that's why you loved me
i could see through all your insecurities and doubts
idk Aug 2013
thought about it
time and time again
had it all planned out
on paper
in her head
she was just waiting for the day
convinced no one could change her mind
decided her mind was set

friends and family laughed around the dinner table
wondering where she was
thought it was just another night she'd say she wasn't hungry
