I read books about suicidal people
just to have a taste of
death in my mind.

And maybe,
just maybe,
I can feel dead just for awhile.

A taste of relief
just for awhile.

I remember crying while looking at you,
begging you to not forget me.
Now look who has forgotten who;
you are barely even a memory.

I can't remember what was great,
I feel like, maybe nothing was.
I remember thinking it was fate,
now I know I was just grasping straws.

All the love I that wanted to receive,
I shouldn't have looked for in you.
Thinking I needed you was naive,
when to myself, I should've been true.

At first, I simply felt distraught,
but then I began to realize
we were never what I thought
and it's better off that we died.

Although, I do recall your insolence;
the only way I remember your voice,
"You are ******* ridiculous"
easily helped me make a choice.

It took an epiphany to see,
that you were never good to me.
I've noticed that I'm more happy,
now that you're less than a memory.

Realizing the amazing things I deserve, made it easy to forget about the ******* who treated me poorly. Now that I respect myself, I don't even WANT someone who would do anything less than I deserve. I feel honestly relieved to have come to these realizations. I look forward to a long, happy life where I won't put up with people being jerks. :)

Let's take a moment
And toast to the inevitable kind of men
The ones we hate to cross
But somehow do anyways
The **** boys
With their egoistic personalities
And no good intentions
They make the world go around
By making us realize
How much better we deserve
So thank you
For being a **** boy
And showing me
Everything I don't want in a guy

I bare my skin to you.
******* to the love we once knew.
I see the knife you hold behind your back,
It's all a part of a mystery you seem to lack.
You marvel over the scars you've left
& I await the next cut hoping to find some relief,
But leave depressed.
Nothing comes but dawn
& when the day is done,
You are what makes me feel.

i made my way
i thought you'd come along
i just thought you could

you have your way
it's screaming in every path
i heard you say
...we had nothing to keep

you don't have to blame me..i needed a horse to lift me away...a stallion to race me to here...before i could understand the true meaning of all your uncertain language

you just didn't care..

you always left a note..showing a different way you understood us..
there was always a message..before you spoke
Her needle breaks my skin and she runs her course through bulging
veins.
Just like thick Codeine syrup, she minimizes any evidence or memory of pain.
Throughout my shadowy existence she is a vibrant sun, and she knows **** well she's the only one.
Relief.
About a girl. And ******. A ******* ******. ****** personified as a girl.
I am clean and have been 7 months, seems the closest I get to that wonderful high is falling in love.

basically alive
these are your arms
they feel like words
stirring me drowsy..

fading the sounds
these are your arms
chasing my heart
into the rivers...

i just can't believe you're hugging me..after all this

"I could see what a mess we were. Our insecurities, our flaws became more exaggerated when we were together. We truly brought out the worst in each other. "

"I apologized, for not knowing myself better, and thereby not realizing how wrong we were for eachother"

If you are only a vision
Sent by a Holy God,
To lift my heart
And take my gaze
Above the gloom...

You are also a sure
Enigma to walk with me
Just long enough,
To ease my heart
And calm my pain.

I've got nothing to write
except my wrongs,
I've had nothing to do
but sing a happy song,
I've had nowhere to go,
but infinity with you.
I've got all the world
**and it's never turning blue
it's okay to be happy.
