Every time I looked into or even glanced any social networks
it always came with a furious  "What are you doing, hm? Why are you liking guys pictures?"
"Babe, their my friends, I've known them for a long time. "
, which later will blow up into arguments on "Why can't it just be us?"
My world was shrinking by the minute, and my heart shriveling up.
"It's okay" I would convince myself.
It will get better.
He will change.
It never did
The arguments became frequent
The isolation became the norm.
Being in a room alone would be my job.
Just to please this man.
My friends would tell me
"Leave  hes not good for you anymore"
Stubbornly I would stay.
Arguments would end up being yelling matches.
At one point he raised his hand to me.
These red flags I ignored because
I thought I found the one.
I cut my friends, and left my family
to live a life with him.
Until one day I thought,
"Is this even right?"
I talked to friends, which all said the same thing
"Leave"
Hell , I even flipped a coin, and it told me to leave.
I packed my stuff and left.
With tears in my eyes I never felt so
Free.
So, I was in an extremely toxic relationship. Luckily I decided to leave. To everyone that has ever felt anything like this with their significant other, Please leave. You dont have to feel useless anymore.

I can't breathe and
you fell asleep on me.

While I'm freaking out in bed,
you're across the sea,
calm beneath your own sheets.

Waves of overwhelming thoughts are washing over me and all I want is to dream.

Please teach me how to sleep
because I can't take another second of this agony.

I wish you were here to reassure me and bring me peace
because in your presence my demons are set free.

Please wake up and
comfort me..

I know I'm clingy..
but I can't help but need you with me.

Save me from this dark abyss with one kiss from your comforting lips
and rescue me from the monsters that have embedded into my mind.

Doubt.**
A terrible plague
that just rots and destroys
every thought and hope.
Every wonderful feeling I had
disappeared, and was replaced with fear.
What is this?
How could it invoke so much
pain, and hopelessness?
I can't help but to sit here
and allow doubt to shatter the remaining light
of my dreams and curiosity.
In this situation, I dont know what to do.

Whomever you may be,
Whatever gender, color, height, or whatever career you decide to have later on in your life...
I want to first off tell you,
I love you!
It may be years until I see your faces
Because I do not plan to have children until later on, but I do know...
I will love you no matter what.
On another note...
Here are things I do not want you to go through alone:

Identity issues- I will always be here for you and I will understand you through your crisis. I will help the best way I can- even if that is constantly making you laugh with lame corny jokes!

Sexuality- Whatever gender you prefer or if you are confused or even if you decide to have a *** change... I don't care! As long as you are happy!

Body Image: If you ever sad about your body or see something wrong with yourself ... Please tell me. You are beautiful. I do not want you to cry yourself to sleep because you hate yourself. I will help you. I promise. You will learn that what we must seek is the beauty within ourselves. You will never be alone through this process.

Relationships: PLEASE ALWAYS INFORM ME! I ALWAYS WANT TO KNOW WHEN YOU ARE DATING SOMEONE BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT YOU DREPRESSED AFTER THE BREAKUP. PLEASE. I WILL HELP YOU WITH THE HEARBREAK WHEN YOU HAVE ANY.
And when you find the one I want to celebrate with you!!!!

School: Best believe I will bother the hell out of you if you persue a higher education and leave my sight. It is never fun to face stress by yourself. Trust me.

In other words,
I don't want you to think you are alone in the world or that you have to face the struggles of this world alone!
I want you to be able to rely on me.
And it pains me to ever think that you will go through the same  Self struggles I have.
I do not ever want you to be crying yourself to sleep for any reason.
Or worry yourself about nonsense
And let that worry consume your sleep.
I will never let that slip pass me!
Therefore, I promise, I will always be here for you. Always.
I will always listen and try to be understanding.
Any time of the day and any time of the year, I will be there for you!
I want you to rely on me as a parent and know that I will go to the ends of the earth for you.
Sincerely,
Your future mother, DLM.
Its been awhile and I apologize. Life has been hectic and I havent had motivation. Until now. This has been on my mind quite a bit ever since the man I love and I discussed how we don't want our children to suffer like we did. Plus its not much of a poem, so im sorry for that. I hope to use this one day.

Hello friends!
Sorry its been too long!
Life became hectic.
But to make it better,
I just need a hug.
Yup,
a single embrace
will fill my world with
more sunshine.
**Have a great day, whoever you are.
And always remember you are a wonderful soul.

Do you know how it feels
To get dressed up only to be ignored when you arrive
Do you know what it's like
To have eyes rolled at you,
and ***** whispers overheard
Do you know how it feels
To walk faster down the street
To escape the filthy names and laughs
Can you imagine the way that ruins your day
Breaks your spirit, robs you of your joy
I know how that feels
Like a pain that won't go away
Numbing, overwhelming, a pain that makes you cry
You reach out to anyone, anyone who will listen
And pour out your heart, as if that will make it better
And you go to sleep, cover your head, cover your eyes
And sometimes the pain makes you give in and die
How much can we each take
Each of us has a limit
Of the pain others cause us
Just because we're living
