My love

is as beautiful as I knew she would be

silver, rough, sharp in only some places,

and she takes a bite from me every time I cry.

She understands my woes,

my fears,

and wants me always to stay.

She bites a little deeper, sometimes,

after I've been away.
your presence,
the only reason
that i am still alive

Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in the moment this order’s tall

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
In the morning I’ll be with you
But it will be a different “kind”
I’ll be holding all the tickets
And you’ll be owning all the fines

Come on skinny love what happened here
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be balanced
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was I?
Now I’m breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?
Note mine of course, these beautiful lyrics are performed by Birdy and many others. I just think many can relate.
Alcohol drowns my sorrows,
smoking numbs my pain
ya i might lose my lungs and my liver
but it s nothing compared to what i feel in my heart
the aching and the breaking
like its dividing into to itty-bitty pieces
i feel like you're killing me
but don't worry, lucky for me its just cancer.
Fake smile,
           Dried eyes,
                       Scratched wrists,
                                         Bruised thighs,
                                                         White pills,
                                                                      Rope tied,
                                                                                Gun loaded,
                                                                                                     *Suicide.
Can I die now?
Mirror, Mirror,* on my wall,
I just want to be thin, pretty and tall.

Mirror, Mirror, if I change my hair,
Maybe someone will start to care?

Mirror, Mirror, if I starve myself,
At least I’ll be beautiful, forget my health.

Mirror, Mirror, if I cut my wrist,
Will I feel like I exist?

Mirror, Mirror, don’t you see?
What you show, is ruining me.
Why do I constantly hate what I see?
sitting here staring at a picture of you
i realize ive made a mistake
this emptiness inside is killing me
i gave everything
even what was sacred
i thought id be able to make you stay
but oh, was i wrong
i shouldnt of let you take it
i shouldve just waited for that special someone
but being young and naive
i was desperate
you knew all the right words to say
you became a pro at playing with my heart
and pulling its strings
treating me as if i meant everything but nothing
all at the same time
you played me like the fool that i was
but now i realize that im better than you
i deserve better than you
so i know to stay hidden behind my walls
and wait for someone who really care
its amazing that i learned so much, just from
sitting here staring at a picture of you
Facebook- deal with all of your friends drama that's none of your business
Twitter- read about all the pointless things that celebrities have to say
Instagram- look at all these foods that look amazing but you know you'll never get
Vine- watch people be ******* and post videos to prove their stupidity
Pinterest- scroll through fantastic DIY projects that aren't as easy as they say

But there is one different from the others...

Hellopoetry- read things that are influential,
       they affect you in a way that you never thought was possible
       and it is all in a good way
read beautiful scriptures that actually stand for something
nonsense doesn't exist on hellopoetry
just honest feelings that make you want
to relax, enjoy, and just read
You'd say you'd always be here
      You said you'd never leave
           You started saying "it's not you, baby it's me"
                 You broke my heart in to pieces
                      Your love for me now ceases
                 You have moved on without me
          You'll never be able to see
     That anything you wanted,
Gladly, I would be.
Things are not okay
No matter what you say
Everything is completely wrong
It's been that way for so long
Nothing is ever perfect
And not anything is worth it
Why is the world such a ****** place?
And all the food has a sour taste
Like I've said before
Things are not okay,
No matter what you say
