ill sit you down and hold your hands in mine
and i will tell you all of my stories
from the very beginning
you'll inhale them
eager and hungry for more
you'll build a little picture of me in your mind
your brilliant ******* mind
god it's so gorgeous
the pictures will be based off of the things i tell you
and only that
they might be twisted and strange
they might not make sense to you completely or at all
but you'll love them because you love me
it's important that you know these stories that i carry around with me
because here's the best part of all
you are in the pictures now
you are one of my stories
a silly dream that actually came true

i skinned my knees trying to crawl through my own thoughts and emotions
i opened my veins onto paper and let the blood come trickling out
my heart is made of glass and if you tap it hard enough it will break into two million pieces
ill carve cuts deep into my chest almost as if i think without them i cannot breathe
and the words ive scratched into my throat with my fingernails will go up to my tongue
and fill me with a brand new oxygen supply

i don't know what this is
i only needed to say i hate poems and poetry

i call them at two in the morning
im crying
"why'd you wake me up i'm not in the mood"
"im sorry it won't happen again"
they text me
"we need to talk"
my heart stops my throat tightens
my mind wanders to the pills in the bathroom cabinet
my heart is heavy
my lungs need so badly
just to ******* sleep
~
onto the next
and it's always the same
person after person
over and over
"im sorry it won't happen again"  
they text me
"we need to talk"
my heart stops my throat tightens
my mind wanders to the pills in the bathroom cabinet
my heart is heavy
my lungs need so badly
just to ******* sleep please let me sleep
i can't do this any longer
~

i get a call from you at two in the morning
you're crying
"i'm sorry"
"no baby. don't you dare say sorry. breathe. everything's okay. we're okay. i pinky promise"
and just as we're falling asleep together ill grumble in my sleepy voice
*"what's forever? i think i'm in love"

What if I get tired of letting him break little pieces of me?

In a world where society says you need to be thin,
beautiful, and smart, funny yet sophisticated. In a work where you are to be yourself. Except you can't do that. Oh sorry, no, you can't do that either. In a world where you need to be unique but can't stand out of the crowd or you get patronized. "How are we supposed to go on in our lives being all those contradicting things?" you may ask yourself. Well, I have a solution. It is quite simple actually. You do you and don't listen to what society has to say. You be the perfect person you are in this beautiful world. You let NO ONE tell you who you should be, because you are amazing. You don't have to be skinny and tall. You don't need to be charismatic and sarcastic all at the same time. You don't need to worry about what people are going to say about you. If you want to wear that sweater covered in cats you ******* rock that sweater covered in cats! You could be a plump Hobbit and you would still be perfect because you are you, and you are amazing. Don't let anybody ever tell you otherwise.

I was tired of disappointing myself so I left
And when I tried to come back
There was no room for anything else
A monster had taken my place
Taken the name
Autumn
With the same hair and muscles
The bones were the same
But the smile was different
The eyes lacked the glimmer that once was
And I resigned
To the back seat
Of this fancy day dream
