two hours to paris
Lottie May 2015
Welcome to England ladies,
It takes us twenty minutes to leave our borders,
And a lifetime to regret it
200 · Jul 2015
Parenting.
Lottie Jul 2015
This isn't discipline,

This is the destruction of a soul.
200 · Jan 2016
Chapter eight.
Lottie Jan 2016
Noose.**

It's almost like our friendship
Is hanging from a thread
And both of us have scissors
But instead of cutting the string,
We're slicing at our minds instead.
197 · Aug 2015
Give me this.
Lottie Aug 2015
Are we writing to each other on here, or am i just stupid and naïve.
197 · Nov 2015
Anxiety.
Lottie Nov 2015
I feel like there's a coil of wire
Winding around my waist
Clenching, clenching, clawing
At the skin.

I don't know how much longer
I can take of this. I am so
Scared, I don't know
What to do.
195 · Aug 2015
Not good.
Lottie Aug 2015
I am whimpering in the corner of my mind.
I am so scared
That the noise is going to come out of my mouth.
195 · Dec 2015
Hope.
Lottie Dec 2015
What is there in this world,
If not the promise of a better tomorrow?
194 · Aug 2015
No.
Lottie Aug 2015
No.
Bubbling to the surface,
I'm so scared that,
In a moment of weakness,
I'll tell you how I feel.
193 · Jul 2015
Lost
Lottie Jul 2015
I haven't lost anything, I know
But it feels like an absense,
A cavity in my side
Where you should be housed.

While you sleep,
its where you fit
And when I sleep
It's where my comfort
Is growing from

You rooted yourself
Deep inside my mind
And are tying knots:
strangling my heart
192 · Sep 2015
Utterly perfect.
Lottie Sep 2015
You were blushing,
And in that moment,
You were wholly,
And completely,
*mine.
191 · Aug 2015
Try again.
Lottie Aug 2015
Mornings don't make thing easier,
But they make days new,
And I suppose that's all we deserve.
190 · Nov 2015
Epiphany.
Lottie Nov 2015
The most romantically sought after girl
And the most socially admired boy
Chose to be my best friend and boyfriend
And Jesus Christ, they chose me
Woah.
189 · Jun 2015
Sshhhhh.
Lottie Jun 2015
My mind is screaming

Silence can't come soon enough
Headaches again
188 · Oct 2015
Love.
Lottie Oct 2015
Love is an abstract promise to protect and treasure another person's imperfections.
187 · Apr 2015
(10w)
Lottie Apr 2015
What were you expecting
From a child with broken wings?
186 · Aug 2015
If i could
Lottie Aug 2015
If I could rip my own throat out:
If I could rip out my own heart,
Do you think I'd feel any better
Or just die at my own worthless hands?
186 · Jan 2016
Time.
Lottie Jan 2016
Time is a matter of who's watching you.
184 · Dec 2015
Christopher.
Lottie Dec 2015
You're mouthing along to a song
That holds a memory for you,
And in this moment, I love you
More than I understand;
More than you comprehend.
184 · Aug 2015
Is this the power you hold?
Lottie Aug 2015
I don't think I should have let you know just how much power you have over me.
*****
184 · Sep 2015
Promise.
Lottie Sep 2015
You put your head in my lap,
And as my hand carded through your hair,
I made a promise to myself.
"I will love you with everything I am made of.
The sky would fall, the world would end
Before I hurt you willingly, my darling."
181 · Oct 2015
Decay.
Lottie Oct 2015
it's just a good word.
179 · Nov 2015

Lottie Nov 2015

I've held onto the fact that I love you
For five years
I'm not going to stop any time soon
179 · Aug 2015
Fearless.
Lottie Aug 2015
I don't want to sleep alone.
178 · Nov 2015
Stop.
Lottie Nov 2015
I will stop thinking this way.
I have not disappointed anyone.*
I just couldn't keep everyone safe.
i hate myself.
177 · Sep 2015
Happiness is..
Lottie Sep 2015
The all-consuming gravity between my hands and your skin.
177 · Oct 2015
Survival.
Lottie Oct 2015
Belonging with you is
Not about being happy
Or sad or calm or
Excited.
I live by your side
That I might not merely
live but **thrive.
176 · Aug 2015
Oh. God.
Lottie Aug 2015
Oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh God oh oh God oh God oh God.
176 · Oct 2015
Closed off
Lottie Oct 2015
I feel very far away
From everything that makes me whole.
175 · Nov 2015
One of those moods.
Lottie Nov 2015
Where do I fit into life again?
175 · Oct 2015
Write.
Lottie Oct 2015
To be loved,

Now that's poetry.
175 · Aug 2015
Loving you.
Lottie Aug 2015
Loving you is what makes me brave,
And let's me sleep,
And gives me hope,
And helps me breath.
I could stand alone
In a raging storm of anger and fear,
But I don't have to.
172 · Oct 2015
Faith.
Lottie Oct 2015
Have a little faith in the words you're given,
Because we cant give you anything else.
And it's not for lack of trying.
I love you.
172 · Jul 2015
Darling.
Lottie Jul 2015
Give me power.

*Smile.
172 · Jul 2015
Headaches 2.0
Lottie Jul 2015
My brain hurts.
I can't turn or blink,
Have the lights too bright,
Or have them dim.
171 · Nov 2015
Old friend.
Lottie Nov 2015
Was there anything that was real?
Or was it just your
Synthetic soul
And plastic personality.
167 · Nov 2015
Dying.
Lottie Nov 2015
Love is a rose,
With blood
Dripping from the thorns.
166 · Oct 2015
Ow my brain.
Lottie Oct 2015
In this moment,
My head hurts;
It feels like nails,
And I'd quite like,
To not be breathing,
If it meant no pain.
165 · Dec 2015
Christopher.
Lottie Dec 2015
I lust for the lighter, darker things
That only your lips can bring.
163 · Oct 2015
Distance.
Lottie Oct 2015
Please, world
Stop causing pain to those
Who try so hard
To be perfect and normal.

It's the people around them;
These 'normal', 'perfect' people,
The ones who cause the pain

Who ******* well deserve it.
The human content of this world repulses me.
161 · Sep 2015
Hurt.
Lottie Sep 2015
I want to be happy, so badly.
It hurts other people though.
160 · Aug 2015
muffled.
Lottie Aug 2015
the world outside has a sheet of quiet
floating down on top of it.
the world we have created for ourselves
is small,
and temporary,
but it is *ours.
158 · Oct 2015
a moment
Lottie Oct 2015
of pure insecurity
is feeding itself
the tattered remains of my control.
157 · Sep 2015
Memory.
Lottie Sep 2015
You live in my skin,
So when I go hollow and drift from emotion,
My body grasps the physical memory of you
So that when my heart returns to me,
It can find me wrapped up *in you.
157 · Jan 2016
Christopher.
Lottie Jan 2016
I'm trying to focus, get out of my head!
156 · Sep 2015
I promise you.
Lottie Sep 2015
I promise you that I will give you my heart.

I am scared to, but I need to do this,
Otherwise you will never know
Just what it means to me,
When I look at you and find you smiling.
153 · Oct 2015
Landing funny.
Lottie Oct 2015
When you're coming down from a high,
Everything was fine, fine, completely fine.
But you hit the ground,
And its harder than it should be to get up again.
149 · Jun 2015
Hello Alex, at long last.
Lottie Jun 2015
You gave me a kiss
You gave me a promise
"We'll see each other at Christmas"
Three years on, my once was love
We've started talking and I'd forgotten
How brilliant you were and
How brilliant we were
You make me laugh
But you broke
My heart.
147 · Oct 2015
Christopher.
Lottie Oct 2015
You are everything to me.
146 · Oct 2015
Beautiful human.
Lottie Oct 2015
You don't deserve pain.
133 · Oct 2015
Hope?
Lottie Oct 2015
You chose me,
So maybe this world isn't so bad.
