that was never really there
I am sorry

Have you seen the missing persons sign?
The one with the pretty girl with wide smile
and sparkling eyes.
The one with a girl who was a honors student
and wouldn't dare disobey her parents.

I think I've seen that girl before
Where?
I last saw her at the bottom of one of the many brandy bottles lined up near the door.
And in the mirror before she took her first fix
But, why?
Because, she couldn't handle the stress anymore, the thoughts of not being good enough and facing the never ending disappointment.

I used to be that girl in the missing persons sign.*
I'm not anymore.*

i have never been in love
and i don't want to be either
why would i want to be constantly confused and love sick all the time?
why would i, give up my heart to be played with when i could keep it safe and guarded?
i have never been in love
and i don't plan to be either.

I quote people everyday.
I live by the words of a stranger.
I hold onto them like a lifeline.

Their words make me feel like I am not alone.
Like perhaps I can make it another day.

I am not entirely happy
I am not entirely sad

                                                            ­                             I smile sometimes and
                                                             ­                            I laugh at funny things
                                                          ­                               I can crack a joke and
                                                                ­                         Be around people.

But at night when I am alone
Is when the thoughts start coming
When the tears escape my eyes
And when I start to feel the worse about myself.
This is the time when I just want to disappear.

I deleted the old messages.
I kept on rereading them
And I couldn't stop thinking about you.
You moved on,
I need to move on too.

everything that falls must be broken
for i fell for you and now i am made of broken parts.
for i cannot fly
and our love had no wings.
so when i fell
i had nothing to hold on to
and i became
only a shadow
of the girl
you once knew.

Refuse to fall
Refuse to miss
Refuse to love
Refuse to kiss

Never been cheated
'Cause I never really cared
I refuse to be apart

I was so scared
of someone getting too close.
I was so scared
of someone getting close enough to break me.

I was so scared
of being broken so badly that I could never be fixed.
I was so scared
that I closed myself off.

                                                                    And I ended up breaking myself.

It's coming again
I can barely hold this pen
My hands are shaking so hard
And I can barely think straight.
What's wrong with me?
I don't know anymore.
It could be my anxiety
Or just my lack of self control.
What's wrong with me?
I should be able to keep my thoughts in check.
Cause those worrisome thoughts
Are what has brought me here.

Blame it on my anxiety.
Blame it on my lack of self control.

Silence
is
Bad

Because
then
I
have
time
to
think
about
how
I
am
not
good
enough

About
how
I
am
unwanted

In
the
silence
is
when
my
thoughts
are
loudest
when
my
monsters
decide
to
come
out

And
with
silence
comes
violence

will you still love me when I am old and gray?
stay by my side 'til the end of my days?
will you still care?
look at me with adoring eyes?
will you laugh with me?
and tell me not to cry?
will you still sing with me the lyrics to our song?

or will you say bye as time continues to fly?

Sometimes I feel like
         I am not good enough

There is some truth in my lies.
Some demons that hide deep inside.
I am happy -- that's a lie.
I do despise those eyes I try so hard to hide.
My laughter is often forced
My smiles are often faked.
Sometimes I try so hard but I still hate --
hate the fate.
The fate I've been forced to take.

The most beautiful words
Come from the most ****** up minds
So tortured and sorrowful that you begin to wonder where the enemy lies
Is it inside
Or somewhere beyond?
Can it be stopped from causing so much harm?

If you could read my mind, you'd be in tears
You'd see all my flaws and all my fears.
The deeper you go
The darker it gets
You'd see how twisted my mind really gets and all of the coffins
that I had once layed to rest
You'd know my suffering
and all of my regrets.
You would know the truth and how deep my mind gets.

I can't see the stars anymore.
Not where I live anyway.
Back when I was a child,
my mother would always tell me to look at the stars
when I felt helpless or down
because if the littlest stars can shine in the darkness--
then I can too.
Well I'm feeling down now mother.
What do I do now?
How am I supposed to look at the stars when there aren't any to look at mother?
If these stars can't shine through these
city skies,
how
can
I?

I wrote a version of this before but deleted it and decided to write another poem that followed the same idea.
lost girl May 2014
The world is just a book
And each page is a new day
And each chapter is a new year
And I am just a measley character out of billions of others

I have a life that I am not fully living
And I'm supposed to be happy and I'm not
I play a small, unimportant part in a huge book
And when I get to my last chapter the book will continue on without faltering.

This world is just a book
And with each page comes a new day
And with each chapter comes a new year.
And I am just a character out of billions of others.

They don't know
That I cry myself to sleep

this is not a cry for a help

this is a story

the story of a girl who used to smile a lot and laugh at the right times. the story of a bright beautiful girl with pretty soft skin and freckles on her nose. this the story of a girl with vibrant black hair and sparkling blue eyes.

this is the story of a girl who worked hard in school because she wanted to go somewhere. this is the story of a girl who pushed herself to be the greatest she could possibly be. this is the story of a girl who cared and cared and worked and worked...

until one day she stopped.

this is the story of a girl who has had enough. the story of a girl who had been pushed too hard to keep on going. this is the story of a girl with no way out. this is the story of a girl who can't cope anymore.

this is the story of a girl who can no longer smile without crying, and whose laugh is cold and void of emotion. this is the story of a sad girl with bumpy red skin that is covered with scars and cuts. this is the story of a girl with dull black hair and empty eyes.

this is not a cry for help

this is a story

the story of a girl who no longer cared.

Your presence here is voluntary
But is it really?
You aren't forced to be here
But leaving is a sign of giving up isn't it?
Leaving is a sign of cowardice
                               of weakness
I don't think I can take it
You wouldn't want to disappoint.
You have to make it.
You've made it to this point.
This is what you wanted
What if it isn't?
I don't even know what I want for lunch
It's an opportunity of a lifetime
