#messup
And when things get good, I push it away, And when I finally understand, I forget, And when I find myself, I'm suddenly so lost. Why am I so lost?

Why?
A lie is an intentional mistruth. It's when you deliberately try to get someone to believe something you know isn't true. A mistake is unintentional. It's when you ***** up, and usually, you end up hurting someone even though you never meant to. It's when you let people push you to do or say things you aren't ready to. It's when you're still learning what it means to dream, to live, to love, when you try so insanely hard to put it all behind you, but you can't because people won't let you forget the mistakes you made. Just remind yourself that all people make mistakes, and your mistakes don't define you. ******** up doesn't make you a liar. It makes you human.

Haiku: Messed Up
Like a foggy road I can't see what's ahead Only a sense of dread In this quiet madness Still keeps me walking Without any sense of direction Wondering if I can escape This chaotic mind of mine.

Chaotic mind
You’re going to mess up a lot. Each time you’re going to think it’s the end of the world. It’s not. Don’t believe everything you think & know you and your future are entirely up to you.

Messed up life→poetry
I watched a movie once, where this girl keeps ruining her life as she and her brother walk on a beach he asks her whats going on and she turns to him and says "Maybe I'm the faller. The one who doesnt get the boy, the one who never gets an A. The one who trips and stumbles and pulls everybody down with her. every family has one. ours must be me." i hear her say this, and i hear the pain in her voice as she says it, and i realize that i am the faller. i ***** up i cause pain to my family how can someone who never does anything right even come close to standing up straight?

I look back on those things that we said; When I told you, it was the truth: I was willing to let you mess up a million times I just wanted to be here to forgive you.
