I wear all black My eyeliner is sharp as a knife My laughter is melodic and has a nice sound I’ve never been kissed And I hate the ache over something I shouldn’t be able to miss...
My tongue is silver and seems to have a mind of its own My lips change color depending on my mood: red, taupe, black, purple, blue; I love to cuddle and receive hugs It may seem ridiculous to you, love, But you’ve had it all Yes, from the very start.
I don’t want to be called a crybaby Not for the connotation it receives So instead I build walls around my heart I bristle and joke Despite the ache in my chest For I know that I cannot be strong forever.
I only hope you won’t be around when I break, love. I don’t want you to see me fall apart at the seams. You deserve to know the best of me For the worst is hard to understand.
Please don’t cry for me, love I am not broken yet I can still spit fire from my lips and utter curses from my tongue I remain steadfast in this prickly facade Because if I don’t, I cannot say what you will do.
So I refuse to be a crybaby No matter how many times it hurts to see you with someone new I have wept over you enough, love So now I must harden against the world Before I become utterly undone.
I will not be your crybaby Even though you only care when I’m nearly falling apart You thrive off of other’s suffering, so that you may be their knight in shining converse You seek those in need, you prey on the weak... I don’t want to be just another conquest Just another score I wanted something else, love With you, I’ve always wanted more.
Guess what, love? I’m not your crybaby I will die before you will know Exactly what it is that you do that makes me weak in the knees For if I were to voice my thoughts, you would roll your eyes and mock...
I hate that you make me your little ***** That you make me want to bawl my eyes out when you come in with hickeys that have no name You’re. Not. Mine. You’re just a stupid ******* So why do you make me your crybaby? I hate this feeling of weakness whenever you’re near I used to be such a ******* badass But here I am, buried under five blankets, Hoping my roommate doesn’t hear me as I cry my eyes out, Forevermore, over you.
