some people say
                      how there are so many
teenagers who are just "pathetic"
       they have "depression"
         they "self harm"
                                                     because they want "attention"
                                     of course they ****** well do
                         they're sick of no one caring
                         they're sick of no one knowing
                         they're sick of people hurting them
                         they're sick of society
                         they're sick of family/friends
                         they're sick of it
so no wonder
they hurt
its not because
                         they're weak its because
                    society is harsher
                    society is the killer
                    society, with it's expectations
                                                 uncaring expectations

THATS WHY TEENAGERS CAN'T HANDLE IT
BECAUSE SOCIETY IS DOING IT
AND NO ONE, CAN STOP SOCIETY

let me touch
the softest skin
on the inside
of your elbow
and let me know
you're real
not a fake
name and face
let me know
you have
a soft spot
for me
inside the crook
of your heart
don't let me rest
on your sleeve
maybella snow May 2013
why is it when?
you tell me you love me
i feel utter happiness
warmth floods me

yet an unbearable sadness
pulls and picks
like a seagull on the beach
pestering a crab
waiting for it to give up

i don't want to
but i feel like its correct
meant to happen
maybe just giving up
isn't as bad as they say

maybe its time
to give up*

. . . . . . .

give up on the sadness
that i held like a blanket
as if it keeps me warm
i realize now, that it didn't
never did, never will

though i continue to clutch it
a child, frightened of letting go
loosing my strong grasp on
past feelings and fake safeties

to be completely happy

could i maybe find another
a blanket of thicker wool?
one that does hold me
tight in its embrace
keeping me warm
giving me love
maybe it's time
to take more
and let you
love me
fully

maybella snow Jul 2013
in fall                                                                                                              
we joined                        
the                                                                                
fiery leaves                                                  
as they                              
tumbled
and flew                                                                                      
gracefully                                          
in a                      
type                                                                                                
of beautiful                              
dance                                                                      
to settle                                                                                              
on the                
ground                                                      
safe and

*grab my hand

it's so terribly sad
           that unless you're located
  in a place with no or little food
            people are criticized for their weight
            put in boxes
                                                   [overweight]
                                                   [underweight]
and there's no
                                                   [perfect weight]
instead there are people
                               on diets
             to gain
        or to loose
                                                 to attempt to get the
                                                   [perfect weight]
there are adults
                teenagers
                children
                                          who only want food
                                          they're in their own box
                                                                                                      they're [starving]

backs pressed against each other      
weapons only of hands
knees       feet      heads        
the wind howls                                    

the world is a powerful enemy
sly       conniving      uncaring                
attacking with fury
we don't deserve any of this

we're already bleeding        
crying        worn out
it's only making our wounds worse      
cuts deeper           bruises darker                      

we lash out against it            
fists flying         hair whipping around  
we're a strong team                    

we know each others weaknesses
down falls            soft spots  
and we know how we're able to help the other    

i know when you don't see the fist            
coming at your head, turning to block
i kick back            
you're there to keep my balance    
assuring i don't fall

twisting and turning                                          
spinning around in battle stances                    
we're fighting the world                    
we've no idea if we're winning                        
but we're not going to be beaten                      

never will we let anything beat us
never will we let anything part us

the world fights everything                      
but it wont win                
not against true love                                                  

so we're fighting it    
we'll beat the world    
hand in hand                                      
back to back                                        
with true love
on our side
deleted this completely by accident, but i've put it back up again..

a twinkle                      
a spark        
a reflection          
of light
hitting my eye

the distance between us
is more literal                  
the closest way to physically measure
how far apart we are
would be to cut through the ground            
but  
even though we're so far apart            
that we don't share the same stars

our hearts are together
cuddling under the watchful eye
of our minds                  
which is being distracted by the force
of our souls

love, we're never really
fully apart                                              
we're together in more ways
than one

just the fact that i made
     you
smile today
            made me smile
  which made you smile
more
  and more
                           until we were both
                     grinning from ear                                    to ear
       because
i made you smile
maybella snow Jul 2013
like land birds        
we circle,
chase,                    
                                 glide after each other
over the sea                                  
there's no place          
for a land bird to rest                              

                                      will we simply
stop flying
              exhausted
                                            and drown?

                                 and in weird ways
      i think you actually care about me
      and yeah i care about you
                                      in a weird way

it bothers me
that your arm

than my pillow

or maybe it just
bothers me that your
arm isn't under

                           depressing emotions shifted
less    alone

filled   with
oppression
                                       an easy smile
                      troubled thoughts
                           warm hugs
                                           easy ways
pink dresses
take away coffee
warm blankets
                                      soaked in a hue of happiness
                                      naturally bight and warm
a wonderful person

◊                                                       i've found that            
when i really get to know people            
i know them                                                  
so well                                                  
that i know what they're thinking    
before they can say it    
sometimes                      
its a little weird                      
but i just cant help it              
i get to know people too well              

maybella snow Jul 2013
you called me
                   or i called you?
                                 it's been too   l o n g
since i last heard
   the deep timbre of your voice
                your soft breathing
                         deep chuckle
                                                         ­         for a while
                                                           ­       we just sat
                                                             ­       distanced
                                                ­                   connected
and listened to our breathing
                                      in... out
                                                                ­                      and i noticed how
                                      we're in synchrony
maybella snow Dec 2013
I'm doubting you again
are you truly the man
I first met. or were you never
the man I thought you were
your eyes did trickery
on my heart
and I lost myself
in the folds of your hugs
maybe your smell
deceived me
with a hint of musk
to hide the blood
bleach doesn't help
stains on skin
maybe you never were real
and I'm just a fleeting
moment and thought
of lust
never love
maybella snow Jul 2013

maybella snow Jan 2014
lay in bed
cool sheet covering you
and think
                                            or remember
that time you were
ignored by a                 friend                  ?
wonder what it's like
to be them
do they think it was harsh?
maybe               or maybe they were scared
never will you know
what they thought then
and does it matter?
if they            remain in your life
is it because you were loving enough
to forgive them               maybe
they didn't deserve you
                                                                   either way
it hurt didnt it?
maybella snow Aug 2013
if people talk about me

why are you scared to tell people about me?
...yeah it hurts, you don't want them to know?        
why?

i always wonder

why me?
why was i born
lacking in the whole
loving myself area

why me?
why did i get hurt
time after time
why am i the weakest link

why me?
why do i need medications
and supplements
to get through each day

why me?
why do i love you
why do i feel the need to live for you
when no one else made me feel this
desperate for hope, and life
sigh
maybella snow Nov 2013
"because i hate myself"
"how can you hate yourself so much though?!"
"i just do"

i know its difficult to understand
but i thought this through
and i've figured a way to describe what its like
i hope maybe you'll understand
a little maybe.

                                                           imagine you're angry with someone
                                      they've maybe broken something special to you
                             or forgotten to do something and it ended in disaster
                           well,  you're angry with them, so frustrated and angry
                     and you have built up rage, muscles tense and you know
                 you cant hurt them, because thats bad, and you'll feel worse

but the person you're angry with
                                                                        is you.
its like there's two of me
the me that is a body
just simple and does what its told
then there's my head
                     my mind
                     my mind gets frustrated with my body
so very angry
                     my mind punishes my body
for not being perfect enough
for not doing something perfect
for forgetting or not doing it g
ood enough

imagine that
over every
tiny* little thing
of course i hurt myself
its how i learn
to be perfect
i'm working on it
but i'm still angry
with my body
for not performing
good enough
