Facebook- deal with all of your friends drama that's none of your business
Twitter- read about all the pointless things that celebrities have to say
Instagram- look at all these foods that look amazing but you know you'll never get
Vine- watch people be ******* and post videos to prove their stupidity
Pinterest- scroll through fantastic DIY projects that aren't as easy as they say

But there is one different from the others...

Hellopoetry- read things that are influential,
       they affect you in a way that you never thought was possible
       and it is all in a good way
read beautiful scriptures that actually stand for something
nonsense doesn't exist on hellopoetry
just honest feelings that make you want
to relax, enjoy, and just read

sitting here staring at a picture of you
i realize ive made a mistake
this emptiness inside is killing me
i gave everything
even what was sacred
i thought id be able to make you stay
but oh, was i wrong
i shouldnt of let you take it
i shouldve just waited for that special someone
but being young and naive
i was desperate
you knew all the right words to say
you became a pro at playing with my heart
and pulling its strings
treating me as if i meant everything but nothing
all at the same time
you played me like the fool that i was
but now i realize that im better than you
i deserve better than you
so i know to stay hidden behind my walls
and wait for someone who really care
its amazing that i learned so much, just from
sitting here staring at a picture of you

you shall forever haunt my dreams
in my never-ending slumber

you shall forever haunt my dreams
the amount, an unspeakable number

you shall forever haunt my dreams
as i lay here alone

you shall forever haunt my dreams
sending shivers to my bones

you shall forever haunt my dreams
and like ive already said

you shall forever haunt my dreams
even now, for as i am dead

looking in my mirror
i see nothing wrong
figuring out now
i was beautiful all along
imperfections, i have them
but its no big deal
its just a way of proving
that im 100% real
i may not be attractive
but im sure great to be around
the queen of self-confidence
shall i be crowned

dark, dimented, and twisted
i watch you walk past my door
you ignore my cries for help
you see me lying on the floor
stabbed through the heart
my blood spreading fast
pulse slowing, barely alive
not much longer shall i last
you tried to tell me i'd be fine
that i'd survive without you
and like the fool i am
i fell for all your lies
there once was a time
when we were in love
you were my everything
my soul mate from above
all i wanted was to be in your arms
just to feel warm and safe
your kiss was my drug
and how your tongue would always trace
every line and imperfection
so soft but so sure
the way you'd whisper in my ear
with words so beautiful and pure
but none of that matters now
as i lay here and cry
because you broke me unexpectedly
and left me stuck here
just waiting to die

lonely, depressed, and dark
love has left its mark
it's all just one big lie
and it left her there to die
her hearts been torn to shreds
barely attached by a single thread
a sick, dimented place
until she saw your face
your existence changed her world
even though she's just a girl
promising to stay around forever
to play her you would never
then one day you disappeared
and suddenly it was all too clear
the one she needed all along
was always close but far too gone
the perfect person to treat her right
was the beautiful being inside her mind

Poems are a form of expression

They help some heal from their depression

In them contain emotions

From all across the oceans

It's a way to put yourself out there

Even if you are from nowhere

They allow you to say what you feel

Without being judged

Preventing your true self,

From ever being smudged.
