Am I only my body? Did he have to have *** with me to realize he did not want me anymore Or did he already knew? Was the question “Can we do it raw?” Because he knew it would be the last time? Why did I do this for so long? For him to love me? For myself? For the last bit of hope? I hope no one has to suffer like I did I kinda wish he was miserable too To feel at least  a bit of regret A bit of sadness I kinda wish the world screws him Just a bit more So is ego is crushed He does not have my respect Because I do not think he respected me anyways Or atleast Not my body

Am I only my body?
Watch out, everyone is looking at us, our love -- must remain secret.

[ Watch out, everyone ]
I am haunted by the things that embarrass me Every mistake, every misstep Comes rushing out As I lay in bed, trying to sleep And I’m desperate to cry aloud And I try to pretend That I vacuum them away Into my own Pandora’s box But that’s the trouble— It’s irresistible to open— And I fight the memories as they flood forward And I close my eyes and squirm— How can I make them stop? I can’t sleep for reliving every memory Of things I wish I’d never done The things that I question Did I make a stupid choice Or did he— And I blush and I curl up And I feel so alone And I can’t forget those awful things And I think it’s ruining me

//embarrassing things
At times I feel socially awkward hiding away those eyes from contact mumbling and stuttering as though I were stumbling, upon the words as I was discovering. Please don’t think I don’t want to talk when I rush out, Please don’t think I don’t want to talk, when I don’t open your messages. I escape out of nervosity I feel the fuzziness in my head butterflies in my stomach nervosity in my nerves lack of air in my lungs tremble in my muscles and the gritting of my teeth on my nails as it drains every ounce of energy out of me. I hide behind shadows so I don’t encounter any social interaction. No matter how many times I plan and play a conversation in my head I shudder and fret in reality, making myself look like an awkward mess. I want to be friends I want to say hi but the words do not escape for I feel tongue tied. I feel conscience and dreadful for being such an awkward mess choking on words unable to let them escape my tongue. I am thinking more than I am speaking I can have a conversation in my head but somehow, I find it difficult in reality. But then you reach out and make the first move It makes it easier; only to find myself being an embarrassment once again. But you don’t judge you play it cool and remain patient you still show an eager to talk and maybe that was what I needed to be comfortable and me.

Social Phobia/Social Anxiety
Got 2 fingers for this night 2 bloodshot eyes on the town's small size. I'll take this walk on shaky toes, take 1 more bottle for the icy road. 3 years, 3 months and countless ghosts, some angry friends, a long walk home.      I stumble down Wyoming Street    and ball 2 fists inside my coat.                       Stunted I tripped while running in place, bit my tongue and cut my nose up--     ****** my pretty, spiteful face.                    And I'm just                        punting and slurring while I beg for pardons. Forgive my weak and sour heart--                   didn't mean it when I said "Goodbye and **** this place." I'm a werewolf on nights like these-- popping joints and twisting knees, yellow eyes and dagger teeth; full moon makes my lungs freeze. When memories claim my mind, can't see through greyscaled eyes. Sorry to waste your time           but I seem to have misplaced mine. Hundred questions for myself. Emptied 15, placed them on my shelf. 0 answers inside each 1. Shapeshifter's sorry that I killed your fun. 3 years, 3 months. 1 long walk home. I gambled with these dicey ghosts. I spilled some drinks and said some things. Grab my coat and hope you can forgive me.                       Stunted I zipped my leaking lips up. Bit my tongue -- I'd made no progress      Hung my petty, spiteful face.                   And I'm just                       punting, but could you forget my infractions?                  didn't mean it when I said, "Goodbye and **** this place." I'm a werewolf on nights like these-- Claws bared and licking teeth. So, please just don't mind me as I walk out on unsure feet. Sorry to waste your time, but I seem to have misplaced mine.

I have delayed writing about you Because I know that if I do I will develop feelings for you. Its not that feelings are that bad Just that they can't be taken back, And that thought drives me mad. But as I sit here avoiding the write, My true feelings have come into light And I have found that what I want is for us to be right. I feel like such a fool Laughing this hard, smiling this hard, not keeping my cool, My mask fades when we speak and so do my tools. Strawberry blonde... It makes me giddy how I am fond Of that description, particularly when you respond. In your presence, I don't manipulate, I can only manage to speak straight, My ego you sedate- Take what I have to say with weight.

Sub-Par Rhyming Trios
Me: Pale eyes, Big thighs, and flat hair Chest that resembles waves And skin like the dead leaves of the fall You: Eyes like honey dew, Artistic mountain-like figures your voice drew You seem to be perfect, don't you? With the way you batter your eyelids and my lids, they cause hurricane winds Rough draft copies of tragedies My life a constant mixture of sin and sanity You, you're trapped in vanity. Am I a buffalo, with a targets on my sides? You're bullet of jokes stings. I bleed blood from my eyes I wish I was the carcass now, But the other half of me continues to go on now. You seem to hate my posture Hate the way my mouth cracks under all the pressure. Sue, SUE, SUE, SUICIDE WHERE YOU ASIDE from when I need you to wipe the tears, my eyes Is it when I'm alone and vulnerable you seem to want to comfort me? I wouldn't blame you to not want to be seen with The **** of the joke. I do not like the way your larynx lashes out to me Like whips to a slave Leaving scars, the words My skin, the page. But it's ok. I'll take the pain. After all it's just a joke It's only a game Even though your self esteem won't be the same. Relax, don't go insane. That's one of the joys (the pain) of being the **** of the joke

The **** of the Joke
I know each one of us has a moment in our lives, a moment when we make regrets. Like, *"Why the hell did I do that?" "What was I thinking?"* And later we abuse ourselves with punishment good enough to repay for what happened.

oh sh....t
My body is unhappy because I ate a packet of energy Goo before I took a nap. My mind is unhappy because because now I don't know what you think of me. **** I'm never eating that **** during a non-sports season ever again... Why did I say that?
