#carelessness
You know you are unworthy & undeserving, Beneath me, love; And yet, with shame, You feel the same as you have always That heart - of mine. It is kindred, and full of lust. Hopelessly infatuated, Though you know we were all wrong. You can't help it, And you assure me it isn't obsession For you have known that, This is not it. Just painfully unrequited, For all your faults.

Pretty Ridiculous From This Perspective, Isn't It?
I wanted to shut myself off from reality. To escape from myself most definately. But be careful you don't end up like me, or bill collectors will sue you eventually.

That's Not What I Wanted!
I bang my elbow in the shower, takes a second to realize why not that I was careless or enjoy pain, again but the cascara cowbell, saxophone, hands around my shoulders that are not my own sunlight squeezing lemons, flower dress upon the hill potato enchilada still digesting messing with my footwork     possibly maybe     I was careless. Showers are not the place for salsa.

Not the Place for Salsa
Dear careless whisperer, Some sharings are dagger-edged and there is no escape when they’re turned on you no countermagic for the soul crushing embarrassment dropped as if from a great height. Did you hear the gun-shot thunderclap of confidence leaving the room?

I wish I opened up more, Maybe that’s why people get bored. I’m so scared of being vulnerable, That i just end up being unreachable. If only I said what I needed to, Maybe I wouldn’t feel like I do. Because you only notice how bad you’re hurting, When you’ve finally stopped worrying or caring.

Thoughts
sometimes i wonder if we'll make it - after all the misscomunications that leads to fights that leads to tears that at the end always ends up with us tangled around each other. i swear sometimes my anxieties, insecurities and monsters got the best of me and turned me into a villain and break his heart over and over again "there's a thin line between loyalty and stupidity" i always tell him but still he stays and still he fights for us "i do this because i love you. that's it. i love you and your difficulities. i love you because you're the best thing that has ever happened to me and i want to be with you forever," he says. forever. what a silly word. at the end i do love him, though, i love him with all my soul. i can lie to myself and say that it's better for him to be apart from me - but i want him. at the end of the day, i'd still kiss his forehead and hug him in his sleep. i know i do love him, though, because even in my madness and carelessness i still don't want to leave and when i've upset him too much, even with my stubborn pride, i'd hug him still mad but walls crumbling by the seconds.

at the end
Smile, smile, smile, It's all they want you to do, they don't care what you feel, they don't care what you'll do. They just don't want your burdens, they just dont want to understand, lucky for me, their carelessness I withstand.

Don't Smile
Empty head Filled with lead, Spilt the beans... Spoilt the fun. Flatter-flutter Pigs in the butter, Killed the fun. Chicken run. Pitter-patter Chitter-chatter. Spilt the milk, It doesn’t matter… Cry no more Like before. Water under the bridge, Milk is in the fridge.

CHICKEN RUN
...But you don't have a grave, do you? You own, ***** **** bugs in your clothes, holes in your shoes. [Crept in through a window; He holds her close and says, "You're everything I ever wanted." She falls asleep, smiling. He continues, "But I'm also still looking." Left through the back door.] Left a note that said, "Couldn't take the pressure." Looked up the most painless way to **** oneself on google. Thirty minutes later, added Medical Crisis Hotline to my contacts.
