Silence is not keeping quiet
because you have nothing
to say...

Silence is having a lot
to say but no desire
to speak...

Dont leave me alone
in this scary lonely darkness
Because when im left alone
Thats when the monsters come out
Thats when the voices inside my head start yelling
But you'll never notice
I can fake a smile
I can act like im strong all alone
But really, im crying inside alone.

There's always a chance that you'll be around and that's the only reason why I continue drinking

You lie to me
Every time I look at you
You never show me
My true self
Instead you chose to show
What everyone can see
Can you not reflect my inner beauty
You are so vain
You cannot see beyond
I really cannot blame you
You are never the true one
It took some time
But now I know
You can just reflect but cannot see
Every time I look at you
I tell myself
This is not the real me
My mirror
You are a liar
You do not know me

Some days I feel the pain more than others.

Some days I can't cope at all.

But I'm getting better at pretending.

Anyone
can rhyme,
But only
we,
Bleed
words
on paper

They'll sew your lips shut in pretty little stitches
To keep your screams quiet,
Because beauty is nothing less than immeasurable pain.
I hear you'll be grateful though;
Your face will be lovely
And because of your tightly bound lips,
No one can smell the way your insides will rot.
