I hate Houston Texans I love when they lose I cheer when they fumble I celebrate the opponents victory I hate Houston Texans Not for their wrong doing But for adversary association They are my enemy I hate Houston Texans I loathe their logo I cringe at their colors I whence when they win I hate the Houston Texans With every fiber of my being I hate the Houston Texans Until the day I die I HATE THE HOUSTON TEXANS! DEFUNCT THE FRANCHISE!!!

Football enemy
You know, I never actually got away? I left those 4 walls long ago But the friends I made while I was alone..? Still keep me company inside my head They remind me every day That Im not capable of  making good choices. That it's safer to be alone, behind walls. That crying is not just weak, but dangerous. Because when people come inside, They will hate you. They will hurt you. And worst of all, They will never. Even try. To understand you. You probably aren't worth the time. Or even the space you inhabit. You are possibly a vile and useless creature Born to be wrong, and always sorry. So don't be late Don't defend yourself. Don't cry - and if you do: Don't ever let them hear you. Don't say one ******* word, Of one ******* thought, Out loud. Ever. Those are the rules. And if you ever find yourself struggling To follow those rules: Stop breathing until it gets easier. Its been years now, but... I never actually left that room.... Those 4 walls came with me, And I carry them inside every day. On good days they keep me safe. And on bad days they close in so tightly, That it gets dark, and hard to breathe. But on any given day? I just feel... So **** heavy... ©pennamebreez

4 Walls
You made me feel stuck You made me feel gross You made me feel unwanted You made me feel like an inconvenience You made me feel ugly You made me feel like a waste You made me feel discarded You made me feel like a mistake You made feel powerless You made me feel worthless You made me feel inhuman You made me feel like a ruined day A ruined day that lasts forever... And there is no running from it There is no hiding from it There's just me, unmoving Unable to be whatever you wanted When I never really had a chance You made me feel like gum On the bottom of your shoe I did not deserve to feel that way ©pennamebreez

Gum
When we first met you’d smoke cigarettes as we laughed at sunrise. Working on what you promised of a dream. You were living in a sober house, cracked walls, leaking ceiling. Yet you felt like home. I knew you had your nightmares everyone does. You manipulated me, there were so many warning signs. I don’t know how I stayed for so long or how I survived. All I know is I watched you almost die too many times. Your choice is heroine. My choice used to be you. But now I’ve called a lawyer and started smoking the cigarettes you hated the most too.

Warning signs
Cuddle up and get some rest Ignore the pain inside your chest Though doubt plagues your aching heart Promise him you’ll never part Let him feed you broken lies Empty promises and severed ties Make him happy is what you’ll do He says he’s afraid of losing you He’s like a dog fresh off the **** He’s happy that he broke your will Through widened eyes and pouted lips He distracts as he travels past your hips Pretend he sends your form aquiver All while your soul will start to shiver And as he sleeps there in your bed Pretend that running doesn’t run through your head Though you escaped and made it through You can’t get back what he took from you And though you’ve left him far behind He’s never really off your mind

Not Everything I Left Behind Was By Choice
How can one be so spiteful Do I fill you with regret Do you really miss the fighting Or just how I let you share my bed Nobody knows the poison Of a deadly widow’s bite How they **** out all of your energy And leave you with a blight You bullied me into forever Used me like a tool Took me without consequence And treated me a fool Lied to my companions Spouting an accusatory tone Told them I was straying Because I no longer was a drone You don’t want a love that’s true You thrive on self infliction You keep stirring up my life Because you like the friction I’m not sorry that I broke them The promises I made When one as pitiful as you Tried to make me afraid You don’t control me anymore Yet you still won’t leave me alone How don’t you get that I’m better now That I’m not pretending you’re my home

Two Was The Loneliest Number When I Was With You
i know that i get scared and lost in my own heart, i've been bruised and beaten down, almost from the very start of me. its hard to understand how i could be the perfect part of me that i have never known existed at all. it's disguised by fear and anticipation for the bad things that probably won't come, and interfered by the thoughts that i'm not good enough. but if you rip me open, there are sunflowers inside, and when you shine your light upon my face, the way you do, so perfectly, my head will lift toward your gaze, and i will only look to you, for you are my sunshine and you will keep me standing tall.
