Why do you sell yourself
short,
When your price tag reads infinite?
You don't deserve to be bought,
You supernova, you once-in-a-lifetime sight.
Hope that this shorty helps, though I must admire that I do have some self-esteem issues. Perhaps I was writing what I wanted to hear from someone else and was never said, or maybe not. It's all up to you.

I was just thinking about lyfe and my mind decided to run away and come up with some weird questions. Here they are!

If you were a squid, what would your favorite kind of muffin be?

If you were a riptide sqiud what would your----OSTRICH ATTACK!!!!




OH NO! Sorry. Just got attacked by an un-adhesified ostrich. I will continue now.


If you were a riptide squid, would you have a white car?

If you were a cat what would be your favourite type of human?

If you were a Cat food truck driver, on a scale of 1-10, how tasty would you consider yourself to be?

What would your reaction be if you were at your favorite restaurant and suddenly a dolphin wearing a fake mustache as a disguise, and eating a fajita appeared on your head and began to tap dance while singing twinkle twinkle little star in a high opera voice?
Just wondering. Please answer in a comment below.

True, they don't hurt you physically,
Not
A
Scratch.
But inside,
Beneath these lies
You tell yourself,
I'm okay, I'm fine, really...
inside,
A ceramic plate chips,
A corner taken,
A fragment gone.
With time, what was strong
Has become weak.
For what is a house made of
Straw?

Once it's gone, it's
Gone.
That part, however little,
Will never, ever be
With you again.
Like fixing porcelain with
Glue.
It just doesn't feel the same.
And it hurts,
Hurts, hurts, hurts.

But...
If the glue is applied with the
Right care,
Love,
Effort,
The end result, can be--
will be more beautiful
than
If it hadn't been
b r o k e n
before.

sticks and stones may break my bones but words never will
I guess it depends on what kind of words,
Ain't it?
I have decided to let you people guess the quote, but it's kinda obvious, no? This idea sorta popped into my head and I spent 30 minutes scribbling down my thoughts. I really hope you read it to the end, just cause if you didn't it would seem like a really sad poem, and I don't want it to be sad. Be happy! And enjoy life, some people, like me, have found out how to do that by developing a thick skin that doesn't let any words affect me, which isn't always a good thing, also known as being stubborn.

On a side note,
Please give me some constructive criticism if you know how this can be improved, I really appreciate it.

Mabel is breathing....
    no one ever visits.
She has tended flowers and done laundry all
    life for others.
No one needs her.
    She has a bad knee and
Neuropathy , subsists now on pain medication and sugars.
    No one calls her.
She envisions one day getting flowers.
    Or hearing again from that gentleman, who
twenty years ago smiled.
    Or her children or grand young ens';
but no one writes her one letter.
     In the cold she wears all those sweaters she knitted.
So no  people remember her, I will!
    I visit and bring the flowers I grew specially
for her,
    the prettiest yellow roses,
while she lives!

The pills doesn't work
I took it over and over
But still
It doesn't work

Each and everyday passes by
I fake a smile to the world

No one knows
Underneath my smile
Is my broken heart

But
I had reached a breaking point
The crystals streamed down my cheeks

I can't stand it anymore

"SOMEONE !"
"PLEASE !"
"HELP ME ! HELP ME !"

"I'M DYING.."
**"I'M DYING INSIDE..."
Depression took over..

The rich will always be rich,
Computers, clean body, nice clothes,
Proper homes, not shacks.
Elite schools, branded
Motorcycles, jewelry

The poor will always be poor,
A pen, a marvel
Firewood, abandoned train tracks
YMCA funded classes,
Hand-me downs, nakedness

Grandfather, father,
Son. Same lineage, same burden
To pass down
Generation
To
Generation
To
Generation.
A Never-ending cycle

Cruel game of Russian roulette,
Spin the revolver, watch it
Turn, pick it up, iron to temple
--BANG BANG-- you're dead.
The more the rounds, the
More
Lethal
It
Gets

It is a gap that cannot
Be plugged,
A boulder that cannot be put down,
Like Atlas holding the sky,
If released, the sky and earth
Collide, and we die--
All of us.
Everyone.
Sorry if this isn't really top notch, I didn't really have much time to dwell on it, just a basic idea, cause I'm in Cambodia doing missionary work. So bear with me please.
