I'm happy for you,
Since you're happier now.
I hope she'll make you happy every day.
You deserve that.

your name is
forbidden in
my mouth
or in my heart
because when
i think about
you;

i'll cry a little more,
hurt a little stronger
love a little softer
because you no longer
make me feel sober

i'm drunk on the
memory of you
if only i could chase you with pizza but shots don't work like that

Sometimes I wish I was born as a boy
my late-night strolls wouldn't be seen as coy.
Sometimes I wish I was born as a boy
at least I wouldn't be reduced to a mere toy.

Sometimes I wish wasn't born as a female
my life story would have been a tellable tale.
Sometimes I wish I wasn't born as a female
my journey wouldn't have been filled with storms and hail.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't born at all
coz there nothing I hate more than being a life-size doll.

" Cut yourself"

Just a cut
Just a scratch
"What's that mark?"
"It was the cat."
Just an excuse
Just a lie
"What's with all the bracelets?"
" Just fashion, why?"
Just a tear
Just a scream
" Why were you crying?"
"Just a bad dream."
But it's not just a cut, or a tear, or a lie
It's 'just one more' until you die
this poem is about me

Hot  I was when I came
Cold they told me became , So I became.  

Later they told me you are so Cold
So I melted and became Hot again.

Now when I am hot I burn myself and others as well.  
Now no one cares if I am hot or cold.
This is about how we are so innocent and outspoken when we are born and then told by our elders to mellow down.  Later as we grow up , the same poeple and others tell you how diplomatic you are. So some change back to this state of being honest only to hurt others in the long run and ultimately being with a few or alone for the rest of their life.
