This Life.
Jessica Breslow Jan 2014
Life is nothing more than a word
If we matter, let our voices be heard
Born only to die
Passing away like clouds in the sky
It's something that happens everyday
I think that it's time we all get our say
Life is unfair to us all
Built up only to fall
Life is a *****
I'm waiting every minute to become a body in the ditch
I want to die
I will never say goodbye
To the ones I love
To the ones I hate
Released like a dove
Is this what you call fate?
I am ready to become a memory
Nothing more than another stupid story
Gone like the sun in the sky
Born again, once we die
To everyone else I am an insect
Too small to notice while they do drugs and have ***
Maybe life is nothing more than a dream
Our lives are patched, can you see the seem?
Soon it will all be over
Soon it will all be gone
Loved like a brother
Your only one
As we sit in the darkness, silence filling our minds
We suddenly realize, as the sun begins to shine
Our love was nothing, now it's gone
Our love is nothing, while it lasted, it was fun
Love is useless
Unneeded by most
We don't need this
Our love is a ghost
Undead, like you and I
Give it up, I'm done with this lie
A shudder fills my skin
When I think of you and him
The future looks so thin
Together you are the perfect sin
You and I, that's the way it should have been
This is the end of the show, as the lights start to dim
Did our love mean nothing?
Was it all a game?
To you, did I mean anything?
When you put me to shame?
I spend my nights alone, in the dark
I sit here wondering, writing poems about my broken heart
While you have moved on
I feel I am nothing. I am already gone.

Every girl.
Jessica Breslow Jan 2014
For every girl who was a ‘*****’ ‘cause she said no to a boy

For every girl who was a ‘****’ ‘cause she said yes

For every girl who was an object ‘cause she had ****

For every girl who couldn’t wear that ‘cause boys can’t control themselves

For every girl who was ‘asking for it’ ‘cause she wore a short skirt

For every girl who was a ‘*****’ ‘cause she wore a long one

For every girl who was a ‘challenge’ ‘cause she liked other girls

For every girl who was ‘easy’ ‘cause she liked both

For every girl who nobody heard ‘cause she didn’t have a **** (or maybe because she did)

For every girl who everyone ignored ‘cause she was ‘on her period’

For every girl who was ‘fat’ ‘cause she had dessert

For every girl who was ‘anorexic’ ‘cause she didn’t

For every girl who was ‘insecure’ ‘cause she wore make-up

For every girl who was ‘ugly’ ‘cause she didn’t

For every girl who smiled ‘cause she thought she was pretty

For every girl who cried ‘cause she was told she wasn’t;  

Here’s to you.

— The End —
