she stood there waiting
waiting for an answer
waiting for a reason
waiting for a sign
to know why i would
think i deserve to
have so much
pain.

the look in her eyes showed
that all she craved was to know.
why can she not see?

honestly, i wonder why i even
let myself endure the pain
any longer than i should.
death waits for me at my doorstep,
why should i not let him in again?

10 reasons I have come up with
because that should be all i need:
1) God- Would he forgive me? The thought seems scary if he wouldn't.
2) Life- Something I should hold onto dearly, after all this is the only kind like it.
3) Leigh- A girlfriend like you is worth living for. You are worth fighting for.
4) Amy- My bestfriend is possibly my soulmate... not in a "get married" way but in a "meant to be bets friends forever" way.
5) The World- I have too many things I want to do and that I want to change: I should do them, right?
6) UCBerkeley- All I want is this University... It's what I crave. I need to be there. I will be there.
7) The stars- I belong to them like I belong to God. When I die I want the stars to yearn for me just as much as I yearn for them.
8) My family- You are so low on the list, but I cannot lie that I would miss you in some form or way. My sisters big smile, my nephews hopeful eyes, my aunts kind words, and even my moms funny sayings.
9) Me- Yes, its sounds quite selfish but I would miss my humor and my laugh and my hair and my poetry. I would miss reading and exploring and learning... Oh God would I miss learning.
10) The Universe- How could I explore the Universe if I am dead?

I know living is worth it because of all of these things... I just wish life were a bit easier on me.
sorry this is sucky, but its true.

Please don't hide your heart like you hide your arms.
IloveyouIloveyouILOVEYOU. let me help. I want to understand.
A whisper left,
Upon my lips,
No one was meant,
To hear.

Shaking through
My Fingertips,
The numbness turned,
To fear.

And now I have,
Been ******* to,
A knot I cant undo.

For every time,
I seek release,
My headspace fills,

With you.

Dear graduate
Class of 2013

I hate you.
Probably more than anyone I've ever met
I hate you
I hate you so much
I want to tattoo it on you
Tattoo my hate
In bright red ink
Right on your forehead
So everyday
When you snicker at others
They can see
The hate I have for you
So everyday
When you look at the waste you call yourself in the bathroom mirror
You can remember
How you made my life hell
How I never felt good enough
Because of you
I didn't fit in
You called out all my flaws
Made me feel like an idiot
Talked **** about me
And called yourself a Saint.
Ha, no.
You know,
Even if you ever say sorry
(Which you'll never get the chance to,
Cause if you come face to face with me ever again
You'll come face to face with cold concrete
And a ****** face)
I won't accept your apologies
Never.
Not a one.
Because I hate you
I want you to burn in hell
Even if you become some great guy
No
I'll still hate you.
Til the day I die
I'll roll in my grave in hate
I'll be on the other side of heaven
STILL hating you
You've ruined your own name for me
If I ever meet another person with the same name
I'll only see your face
And hear your snickers
And feel the hate
I feel for you

Please,
Do yourself a favor
And *******.

Hatefully,
The Freshman Girl You Tormented Your Senior Year
This is a hate letter (obviously) to the senior boy that I can't think about without pulling up a face of disgust. This boy made my life hell my freshman year of high school, making me feel like a idiot ****-up all the time. I'm so elated he graduated last year, and that I'll never have to see his stupid blue eyes ever again.

You have no idea what you do to me.
A simple touch of your hand sets me aflame.
*I am pushing you away in order to resist the temptation of pulling you closer.
