They say that there are a lot of ways to die;
Smoke a cigarette daily,
You will die ten years early.
Drink alcohol daily,
You will die thirty years early.
Love someone who doesn't love you back,
You will die daily.
The last option is the worst
Yet most effective
The pain is unbearable
You will not even have a choice
But to do the latter
To become numb if you suppose.

She was the girl who,
Everyone thought was
So beautiful and amazing.
But yet she was so broken,
And no one knew

That One Guy
I fell in love
Wishing I could be with you
Wanting to help
To be with you all the way through
But if I get any closer
I will just make it worse

I'm sorry for all the trouble I have created
I have just been adding flame to the fire

I can't do anything to help
And every time I try
It makes me wanna cry
Watching you get more and more hurt
Makes me feel like I should fall into a hole of dirt
I always say I wanna be there
When something happens
But I'm making it worse with my actions
I will still be in love
That is just something I cannot get rid of
But if you need to push me away
I you need me to
I can turn around and go that way...

When you need a shoulder to cry on
My shoulder is here for you
When you need a hug
I am here with open arms
When you need someone to love
I already love you

I wanna be able to help you
Without feeling scared
I wanna be able to hug you
Without feeling guilty
I wanna be able to hold you tight
Without getting to close
I wanna be with you

I want to do all these things because
I wanna love you

Don't shame young girls
who want to express their lives
in metaphors and mellifluous poetry.
They perceive words
as fireflies that shine
on their lonely nights
and it makes them feel alive.
Let them be.
I read somewhere that people shame young girls over their love of poetry and their attempt to compare themselves to 'storms' or whatever. It's not fair. Everyone copes in a different way, and shaming someone for something that they like makes you horrible. Plus, it's poetry! People should express as they like.
our love is like a sunset.
so many layers
so many colors
we can go from light to dark
or from dark to light
but in the end we'll always glow

Tell me why I hold on to you
with the desperation that ill
never see you again.
Tell me why goodbye is so hard.
Tell me why I feel like I annoy you.
Tell me why I constantly need your
confirmation that I don't.
Tell me why I need you to tell me that
you love me every five minutes.
Tell me why I need you to hold me together.
Tell me why I can't do this by myself.
Tell me why I constantly need you by my side.
Tell me why I love you so **** much.
Tell me that i'm not a lost cause.
Tell me that you won't give up on me.
Please tell me.

You never talked to me that much,
And we're not even that close,
Yet you have observed me
Like an open book,
And gave me letters.
I still remember the time
When I seemed to be
Going out of my mind,
And things have gone out of hand
I just found a piece of paper
On my desk with;
Words so soothing
Like a cold wash of relief
Words so soft like a cotton
And your name,
Lousily scrawled at the bottom
