I Can Smile, But Not be happy I Can Cry but because i am angry being lonley,like im drowning slowly hard to breathe as my heart rushes to catch up to my thoughts i feel the cold rush down my neck i can feel you creeping all your eyes watching as i drag my feet and trip along the road i used to skip down. the only place ive been hurt like this in this town. the sneakers that squeak as mine are silent. the clothes that still smell like the stores, mine the same as they were. the same everything. i wake, i struggle, i push, i shed but one tear and tear apart everyone else to protect myself from everyone. i wish of the things i wish i had. of what i wish i was. of what i wish i wasnt and whisper into the trees and grass how much i miss you and everyone else i have lost. screaming at people who i never should have, loving people i know will hurt me.... unless i hurt them first, so many first kisses and first girlfriends i have ruined... so many inults that i said out of a place in my heart that is cold as ice and hard as stone. afraid everyone knows the lies ive told. to create this persona that makes me less of a lame, shame, untame dissapointment of everyone who is related to me.... Let me start over. let me be the one who never lies. let me be the one who didnt have to say that they hate someone. let me love everyone including myself. Look at me without shame Mom. look apon me without disgust father. for i am your baby girl. i am the baby you nurtured into the monster you call a daughter...... no mas no mas mother..... i am not what you have raised i am a near blemish in your imperfect yet perfect life. as we stare each other down from across the table i see the dissapointment in your eyes... the instructers see the lie they call potential... i am just a shadow in the glory of the boy.... just a twinkle in the firework of YOUR life. and as i begin to fall to my knees with pain and anger i think of the people i hurt and wish they could watch me slowly fall into a deep pit of darkness and hate,... i will sleep to the sounds of their giggles since i danced to the sound of their crys. Ill continue to disappoint those around me. im sorry for the pain and stress mom. Im sorry for the tears and fear mom. this is me. oh so terrible unforgivable broken shaken shattered me.......
