No one can know your pain
Not nearly as well as yourself
But the rope won't take it away
It just gives it to someone else

My self worth sleeps
with my self loathing
and the devil is watching
the whole thing go down
and whats one more scar
on a dented heart
and it hurts to breath
but it feels good to bleed
so I keep something sharp
underneath tear soaked pillows
and there is a dream somewhere
saying all this pain is worth it
and there is a reason somewhere
saying to keep my head up
and there is someone
who wants to listen
and there is someone
who wants to say something
and its all been said before
but maybe we can say it
one more time and maybe theres something more to living
than watching the devil
watch my self worth
sleep with my self loathing

No fun
Till the work's done
Working tirelessly
For a place in university

Work again
Non-stop
'Loner'
'Mugger'
But that's fine
As long as
I get out with a degree

Work
Eat
Sleep
Same thing
Every day

Never really dated
No time for that now
Need to get married
Before 30

Having kids
The cycle repeats
Had no idea
Life was planned out
Before birth

Smooth, silky hair tied in a high ponytail
Clear lip gloss
Fingernails painted pale pink
The perfect girl next door
Pastel cardigans and sweaters were her thing

Waking up with red, swollen, puffy eyes
Staring at her reflection in the mirror for hours
And reappearing fresh cuts on her wrist
Yet no one knew the blackness growing darker in her

What's done is done
No way to go back in time
A little attention would've been sufficient to stop it
But to be fair
She got it in the end
As her body laid on the ground
With blood gushing out of her hand

They never show
Their real emotion
While people watch
Their every motion

Everything they have
Is fake
If they'd notice
They would break

They're living in
A fake reality
They need to wake up
To actuality

We always talk
Behind their backs
If they knew
They would crack

They think we love them
They think they're pretty
But they really don't
Deserve our pity

It shows happiness
It hides sadness
It is sarcastic in it’s best
It is melancholy at other times
A smile can be everything
Or nothing all at once
A smile tells you a lot of things
About the person
And the life their living.

Pain, without love
Pain, can’t get enough
Pain, it’s all i love
I need to feed this hurt in me

Pain, drugged me up
Pain, it’s all i want
I need to feed this Beast in me

Pain, in solitude
Pain, it’s what i do
Pain, can’t get too deep
Just what i need to feed this Beast

Pain, in agony
Pain, it’s not what you think
This is release
The pain is inside me

Pain, flowing down
Pain, it won’t get out
Pain
It’s all i want, it’s all i need
Just feed this Beast inside of me

Pain, make it stop
Pain, it’s ‘round the clock
Pain, where’s my lunch break?
Pain, won’t let me escape

Pain, it’s all i want
Pain, it’s all i need
Pain, i need to leave
But not unless it won’t let me

Title : A Girl and A Boy

There is a story about a girl and a boy,
They are from different backgrounds,
Different knowledge and ethic,
But with the same cold heart;

A girl without a smile plastered on her face,
A girl who waved people off from their presence?
A girl crying out loud in the middle of the night?
But she's far from a girl with demons on her tail;

A boy with a hard, stern face,
A boy who only small so little, barely seemed like a genuine smile,
A boy caring for others more than himself,
But he's never be a boy with an angel beside him;

That girl becomes an angel,
And that boy become a demon,
Both not known what they need to do,
And stunned when the reality hit them hard;

As cold as they can be,
They are from a different world,
They aren't worse from other people,
They are still the same person when they're first born.
People come from different circumstances and they think differently from others. This poem is to show us that people has different thinking and what they see in their future.
