#backstab
Blessed are the hearts, that are pure, sweet, and naive Who guard their innocence through hurdles of life Not letting it be tainted, Polluted, Corrupted, By manipulations and greed... Blessed are the hearts Whose sole indulgence are the joy of others, Along, with, not alone Withstand, not with temptations... And yet curses,... Cursed, or rather, condemned, Condemed are those,... Whose hearts are full of filths and self gratifications, Who are ignorant on the sufferings of others, In the name of "I'm jealous", Of comfort, of ambitions, Spitting nothing but contempt, Showing different sides of one coin, yet alone, on one's face... Them... Shame... For they would never know the beauty inside out,... nor peace, nor true happiness... Is it what you want little heart?...

Little Heart ♡
she didn't stab me in the back the way that people have in the past. she looked me right in my eyes and stabbed me in my chest. she didn't backstab me. she stabbed me mid-sentence, when I was still talking and still trusting her and then she watched me die.

You better stop it Something unexpected Might just end up injuring you A press in a step A footprint permanently stained Might just end up with things railing off You better stop it Look what you’re doing to me My drive is alluding your well being You’re on my *** Ready to backstab me I’m not driving for revenge You better rearrange your lane Because if you don’t I’ll check you You better stop it Driving me crazy

Break Check
Your lies have hurt , why do you talk sweetly to my face then turn around a spit them out with hate. Why do you pass around bad rumors like a mad note, if your trying to be funny well its a sad joke. You hurt me but I did not see it until it was too late. I cut off the chain that connected us. I bought a ticket to fly away from your negative space. Then I will rinse myself with soap so your hate might just wash right away.

i walked out crying and you didn’t go after me i looked back hoping you’d come running but you didn’t you stayed sitting there and let me cry over you why didn’t you try to help me? it was your fault anyway. it doesn’t matter because i’ll be the one apologizing while you make yourself the victim because i was hurt. because i was betrayed because i was in pain because i trusted you you twisted the knife so far into me and i didn’t even get to fight back you always think you can trust the ones that hurt you the most. all i did was love you i didn’t deserve this I didn’t deserve to feel like i don’t matter i care too much about your opinion you could make me up and break me down with one comment maybe it’s because you’re the only one i have left or maybe it’s because you gave me false hope that I’m worth something

hurt
_i know what love is love is pain._ love is handing them the knife to slash at your chains but hoping they don't stab you in the back. *** love is disappointment it is waiting up for messages never sent hoping someone remembers to remember you. *** Love is a word over spent very seldom meant its the arrow of Cupid that kills you. its an emotion that disappears after it catches you unaware its the want not the need that fills you both elixir and poison the apocalypse in the horizon the fear of the loss that thrills you. the walls not the bridges the cuts not the stitches the fire and the thirst that wills you.

you dont know what love is
Friends are like bad days, They seem to be fine most of the time, Then they decide to Stab you in the back And ask you if your ok? You seem pale, As I bleed to death on the floor. But it's alright, clearly they cared about my well being. Stabbing me was for my own good. It only nearly ruined the rest of my life. But hey, what are bad friends for anyway?

Friendship
One can never be friends with the devil. Just as he smiles easily, he can toss you in the oven.

Deal (20W)
i’m a step latter. i’m kept between your fridge and the wall and barely make appearances. you only take me out when you need to reach the cereal from the top cupboard. you only use me when you’re in need. i guess i can say you rely on me... in a way. but you won’t let anyone else use me for fear of them getting hurt. then you’d have to shave out some money for their hospital bill to fix what i did. so after you’ve gotten your cereal, and the box is back in place, you shove me back between your fridge and the wall. sometimes, you forget i’m there completely. you’ll use the counter instead to hoist up and grab a bag of chips. and when you fall from trying to get down , you’ll run back to me, “i should’ve come to you,” you’ll say. but i know you’ll reclimb that counter when you don’t wanna use me. you don’t have to flatter me. i know you’re tired of me. you need the space between your fridge and the wall for your new step latter. it’s a better step latter, i’ll admit. it doesn’t wobble when it unfolds. it’s made of strong, shiny metal as opposed to my cracked plastic. and when i’m hiding between the tree and a trash outside, i realize you didn’t want me. you just needed something to stand on.

your fridge and the wall
she walked and wailed for miles, she screamed for help, but no one seems to be around. what did she do wrong, she is always nice, always wanted to make them happy but it seems like nothing's being reciprocated. the clouds above her head circles around,and the crows gawk at her. what is wrong, no, what did she do wrong.

Lips
It stings to sit at a table with you and know you are trying to pull my friends away It stings to sit 3 feet away from you and no one at the table is going to acknowledge me It stings to think that you had my heart and you threw it away for someone who dumped you after a week It stings to look back on us and our good times and realize I wasn't happy It stings to know you still have a pull on my life and I don't want you anywhere near me anymore It stings so much and you're still putting lemon in the hole you put in my back when you stabbed me

Twisted
Some would call it a back stab, I just call it a backtrack, Every path that was once unseen, Is now unearthed right in front of me, I could say that I'm wrong, I haven't always been strong, But in my weakness, I always bounce back like a reflex, A metaphor of burning ashes giving birth to a Phoenix?, But I'm still sleeping, The giant still grows, Nearly 24 and not a clue of where my future is going, 2 years, countless hours, spilling out my heart, A piece of me is out there idle, Waiting for a spark, Somebody to notice, But everybody has their own ideas, opinions and motives, Square one wouldn't scare me if I had pushed so much, Maybe I'll be proud if I suffer enough...

The Start of Something Great?
Growing up is realizing that most everyone never means what they say, it's the proof that no one actually loves nor cares for you, but the things you can provide them with and serve to them. Growing up is seeing how complicated and mischievous the world really is in the reality we live, it's noticing the pieces fitting together in a ****** off puzzle no one pays any mind to figure out, wondering through streets and transparency of all whom fill them. Growing up is publishing the truth and the mighty glory it with holds, it's figuring out what no one really cares to perceive in honesty. Growing up is having your heart broken by those who once promised to put it back together and never having them back as you thought it was before because, you see through it all, through than and the faults.

Grow Up
i'm feeling empty inside like someone took an ice cream scoop and hollowed out my stomach more easily than sawing open and gutting out a cantaloupe. there's nothing in there nothing where the seat of my emotions used to be because when i'm alone even the anger dulls to the stab of a poorly sharpened knife. i've stood in the hot white kitchen with the tall metal countertops some stiff sort of summer breeze fluttering the ineffective flypaper stringing the low ceilings and watched you precisely section off a watermelon. but now i'm the one on that hackneyed cutting board and you don't even notice the juice streaming to the edge. my overactive mind used to be a razor slicing quickly almost painlessly but now it's just a dull serrated edge scraping along my slowly ripping skin. everyone sitting at the dinner table passing me around and laughing as they sink their forks into me and you always wondered why i avoided family meals at all costs. i'm being eaten alive like fruit in the summer and your only concern is how many slices you'll get out of me and whether or not i was sweet enough.

Who bled first? Was it me or you? Does it even matter which of us stabbed the other first?

Life Cycle
As the world heaves and crashes around you Can you keep your feet? Will you balance, as flexible as a willow Or suffer painful defeat? When the ground quakes And you've got the shakes From memories, so bittersweet Can you keep your feet? As the ocean roars And dams leak When hurricanes rage And floorboards squeak Can you keep your feet? When others talk behind your back Ambush with ferocious attack Will you have the courage to speak? Will you be able to keep your feet?
