I am damaged
Far too damaged
But I'll never let it show
I'd hate to burden you with my words
I'd hate to make you worry
Because your smile brings me
joy
And I'll do my best to make sure your happy
A part of it is because I'm a little selfish
The rest is
because I love you
and I'd hate to watch you lose that beautiful smile of yours
So I wouldn't dare burden you with my broken and shattered heart
So I'll do my best to stitch it back up
Or glue it back together
So you don't have too

Here we are again
there's a strange bad feeling in my gut
Today we have an assembly
which means:
loud cheers
shouting
a crowd
A big group of some of my fears
all together
all at once
my heart beats faster
tears start to form
the world around me seems to slow
my breathing begins to become a little heavy
it's happening again.
A panic attack.

Oh how it hurts
this pain in my chest
it feels as though someone has stabbed my heart
and is turning the blade
blood slowly trickling down my chest
as I scream for help
but nothing will come out of my mouth
all there is to be heard by my ears
is their laughter
their lies
and everyone's screams
but my own
why?
why now?
why was I never good enough?
WHY AM I ALWAYS BEING TOLD LIES?!
I'm sorry for whatever I have done for you to think
that I only deserve the brutal lies
I truly am
though
I have no idea what I did
I apologize for all of my previous unknown actions
the ones who made you believe I deserve it all
the ones who took everything I gave to you
the ones that made me who I am
Anything I should work on?

How long ago did my heart fall apart?
Who shattered my world once more?
So many questions left without answers
The darkness in my mind is like a deadly cancer
The hands I used to trust and hold so dearly
Have left me with this darkness
To be forgotten
A voice began to speak
Then another
And another
Until my mind is filled with them
Their lies have become my truth
My life has fallen into internal darkness
And there is no one who cares enough to save me
I'd love some feedback x3

What happens to a little girl
Who's father is slowly forgetting she's even alive
He's out drinking with friends dragging her along
Her anxiety would shoot through the roof
But he didn't care
All he said was "get over it"
As if he didn't know what he did that was wrong
Skip ahead a few years
He's still getting further and further away
Her smile becoming more and more believable
It does that If you practice for 4 year straight
Junior high was hard but her grades where good
Except gym
She couldn't do any physical activity
Her father yelled at her for it
That's when it came all crashing down
She gave up
She thought that If he would yell at her for something she couldn't control
It wasn't worth it
Meanwhile
He still believed he was a great father
No matter how many times people told him he wasn't
He kept dragging her further down an emotional spiral
He was in his own little world
He didn't see the pain he caused his only daughter
She was in his shadow everywhere he went
People told her to stand up to him
but she was to afraid of getting yelled at
To scared to tell him how she felt
She was broken
And she didn't see the point
So to this day
She's still battling this demon that began to follow her
Her father now out with people
Probably getting high
or drunk
Forgetting his little girl
Oh how much she wishes for him to come back
For it all to just go back to the way it was before
When he would actually ask about her
When she was standing with him
Not in his shadow crying
She asks herself everyday
"What happened to being your little angel?"
"Your little girl that you loved so much?''
But she would always ask herself
"why"
"Why did this happen to you?"
"Am I not enough?"
"Did I disappoint him?"
All she wants is for her real father to love her again
To actually be in his life again
She wishes someone would get through to him
Even though no one could
She'll still continue to wish
So this is kinda a vent.. :/
