I shiver and shake
Goosebumps
all over my
skin
My breathing
is laboured
I don't want to be here.

My fingernails
drag across
my arms
The skin
leaking
I don't want to be here.

I promised to
stick it out
but I knew
not of the
things I know now
I don't want to be here.

The lights are
too bright
the voices are
too loud
the air
too thick
I don't want to be here.

I told you
I warned you
If He doesn't do it
then I will
I don't want to be here.

And that is my final promise to you,
one that I intend to keep.

You take everything

You squeeze every bit of joy out of my life.

Every drop of sunshine belongs to you, not me.

You won't even let me get my **** together.

You just keep taking and taking.

You never stop.

You never give, only claim.

I hate you
I hate you
I hate you

But you are a part of me, clinging to my very being.

So I guess I'll have to accept you, either way, I still lose.
Today i say goodbye to all that happened with me in the past,
Past where you were by my side, making me smile after our worst fights.
I say goodbye to the promises that we made,
Where the walls were painted all blue, the blues in which i am still swimming,
I say goodbye to the coffee cups,those caffeine are still in my nerves,
I say goodbye to the joint we rolled, feeling like I am writing on that same paper,
Today I say goodbye to our room, in which I still sleep alone, where the bedsheet reminds me of you,
Today I say goodbye to our mutual friend, that pillow mate, where he knows all that happened between us.
But let me tell you, this is my room, which is calling me back,
I will visit again sometime, someday
But today I say goodbye to all.

I´m feeling lonely,
But why are u so clingy,
I am feeling unwanted,
But why are u complimenting,
Nobody wants me,
But why are u flirting,
I´m feeling ugly,
But why do u call me beautiful,
A hundreds of people can call me beautiful,
But being unwanted from that one person can harm deeply,
It´s unlogical, but its overpowering.

They say, words hurt the most.
Is it?
Actions can even hurt more,
Seeing somebody dancing with someone else,
Seeing everybody together while u are alone,
Seeing the cold hard truth, that nobody´s calling u
Seeing all the love that is given, but not to you,
Seeing ur dreams crumble into pieces,
What does a word even mean,
If all these actions show you the cold hard truth,
Words can be a lie, an act of insecurity,
But actions,
They´ll let you crumble.

Can´t help thinking about what we could be
I will always think about the opportunity
Possibility that we could have been a thing,
You and I together
Creating magical moments,
You and me against the world,
You proving me wrong,
That I ain't less,
That I am someone,
That I am special,
But that didn't happen..

Yesterday I had to choose
between taking a one way trip to the unknown
or staying.
In this place
of loneliness,
sadness,
emptiness,
and hatred.
I chose to stay.
The familiarity of the misery
seems much more comforting
than the promised peace of the unknown.
It’s one of those trips that I’ve been wanting to take but I’ve been putting off like Fjaerland, Norway. The only difference between Fjaerland and this trip of the unknown is that this trip only has a one way ticket. Once I decide to board this plane there is not turning back.

I know shes just a friend
But why does this heart
Ache
Whenever you look at her


It was never the same as how you looked at me
