It burns in the back of your mind
And feels like you swallowed
A bag of stones
And now they're weighing down
On your insides.

Th meditation doesn't help,
Neither does the medication
The music feels empty
And the days seem darker.

Today seems bleak,
Tomorrow seems even bleaker.

Who said
We
Have to
be
Monsters?
We are
Born
Angels
But
The cruelty and
Evil which
We must endure
Turn us
Into
bloodsucking
Revenge seeking
Death driven
Horror stricken
Violent
Unhappy

I jaywalk,
Hoping a car will hit me.

I take one extra painkiller,
Hoping to overdose.

I shave my legs a little too hard,
Hoping to get cut.

I sit in the front seat,
Hoping to be the victim of a car crash.

I wish for city riots,
Hoping to get shot.

I try getting sick,
Hoping to end up in the hospital.

I use electrical appliances with wet hands,
Hoping to get electrocuted.

I pray for an earthquake,
Hoping to get caught under the rubble.

I want to get dumped,
Hoping to die of heartbreak.

I hope for all of this,
So when I say it was an accident,
I won't be lying.

And if you're in love then you're the lucky one,
Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them;
But I'm forever missing him...
I think this song is sheer artistic brilliance and needs to be acknowledged as such.

I love her*
I love the way she makes me feel like my life is a slow motion movie.
Whenever I'm with her I feel like there should be a theme song in the background.
I love the way her smile makes me feel like everything is almost okay.
I love her.
I love the way her messy hair makes me feel like a child.
I love how she always knows the wrong thing to say.
I love her imperfections. I love every flaw she hates.
I know the way she talks, walks; I know the rhythm of the breaths she takes.
She makes me feel whole.
She takes out every impurity from my life and makes me a better person.
She might not know I love her,
Or she might just not care.
But her existence has given me something to live for,
She's larger than life.
She doesn't understand me.
She's a mess.
She's a beautiful person,
And I just want to save her.

They started off in love,
But if it seems too good to be true,
It probably is
.

                     They continued fighting,
                     They said they only fought because they were in love,
                     Everyone knew they were breaking apart.

         They went on to falling out of love,
         They blamed each other,
         But they both were hurting.

    His heart was broken into pieces,
               Her heart was simply broken.

It's always all or nothing,
Either life is good,
Or life is bad.

You can never be happy and sad.
What about when you're sad and
You need to be happy?
