My mind is empty, passive, yet filled with chaos from the past.

Afraid to feel again, to give in.

Scared this is another trap.

What can I give him that no one else can? Why me?

Is there another hidden agenda?

I can't resist his words, yet they scare me to death.

It's like a love song I wanna play on repeat,
but still wishing that the record would break.

Before I do.

who needs to learn
to wrap the tides
while the fisherman
cast the net of fire
from the darkest seabed
locked the doors of events
to keep an ancient calendar
still glowing on it's eyes
but within the time
the firts cry came
the lips of the ocean
became reluctant to return
for us to be afraid
to saw the wraith

of the fish

I am changing.
I'm not greatful nor have I gained wisdom from what happened to me.
But I am tougher, my barrier is stronger.
I know who I am, and I'm no longer afraid.
No more ******* and lies.
I see through it all.
So take your best shot, I dare you.

And I have to change

Nobody understands me
They don't get it
They don't try to
It's just all
Or
It's nothing

I give so much
And get so little
When I back off
They back off more
When I go forward
They step backward

I feel like I should quit
Maybe I should give up
Stop trying
Become who I was

Quiet
Embarrassed
Careful
Shy

Didn't say hello
Didn't speak her mind
Just let everyone else
Dictate my every thought
But that's not who I am

I've changed
                                        
                                               They've changed

They should understand
I'm a new girl

It should be better
Not worse

I should be respected
Not ridiculed

So then what's happening
What left me like this

So alone
So afraid

That every time I try to sleep
I end up crying
I end up hurt
And they don't bat an eye
Because I changed

I'm harsh
I'm different

If I tried I'd be better
I could be

Quiet
Careful
Shy
Embarrassed

And maybe they would notice
That the strongest
Are the weakest
But they don't

So by playing the weakest
I am the strongest
I am stronger than they know
Stronger than they will ever be
Stronger than they think I am

But
I'm not
I'm not strong
I'm weak
I cry at five am
To forget everything they've done

I scream when I'm alone
To try and get back
Hoping that

Maybe

Hopefully

They will understand
They will hear me

Scream
And
Cry

And they will understand
That I've changed
You know what?

I **** at math, I **** at breathing
In my head, everyone's screaming
I can't stop the pain when I walk
Can't stop the fear when I talk

I regret I even exist
I'm sorry for being like this
But I'm afraid and I'm scared
No surprise
no one cares.

long ago,
we used to play in
your paper houses
we were like
cardboard figures
molded complementary
to each other's wildest desires
long ago,
we lived in
paper town
where our world
was changed forever
by the tiny flame
of our hearts
illuminated by the promise
of dreams lived
once a time ago,
we loved
in these paper towns
like never before
set reality ablaze
with our passion
we were
cardboard dolls
with life
little gingerbread beauties
in the light
(b.d.s.)

As I sat down with my friend
To talk we began

One on one
Open conversation

A bond of trust
A must

Expressing her lost
Letting it out like a water fall

I understood and responded with a nod
I will tell her what I saw

Your Choices
Are influenced by someone voices
Or by your free will

So much noise
You can not think clear

The way you feel
You just want life to disappear

When you look in the mirror
You break down into tears

Your life is broken like glass is shattered
Hopeless and in despair

These words I would like to share
Because I care    

I have been there
Confused and afraid

My life I almost took away
A second chance I was given on that day

I fell a sleep that night
When I woke up I felt broken inside


I understood what I had done to myself
That’s when I started crying out for help

I was tired of the way I felt
Tired of being wrapped up in the devil's belt

Tired of being a mess
Tired of feeling depress

For three days I rode the bus
Thinking and to God, I was speaking

In change, I was in search
Invited to go to church

I learned the meaning of the cost of love
That a man came from above

He took all my pain
He forgave

All my wrong were wiped away
I was never the same

He was whipped
He was mocked

They placed a crown of thrones on His head
Hung on a cross unit He was dead

They Pierced His side and He bled
Into hell, He descends

To take back the keys of death
No longer will the devil control our flesh

On the third day, He was resin
To give us all back life’s breath

In Him, we find our rest
In Him, we find new life

This what I told my friend
Come, believe and confess

Put your trust
In Jesus Christ
Amen
