Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I've learned not to flinch,
I take every blow.
Not crying until your gone,
I just wish you'd leave me alone.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
These tears I cry,
You will never dry.
Goodbye to your lies.
Now you get to watch our love die.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
I'd rather be by myself,
Than be another book on your shelf.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I try to sleep as long as I can,
Because every morning I have to relive the pain of waking up alone.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Don't even bother anymore.
You have torn me to the core.
How can I miss,
Someone who did me like this?
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
Another morning without you,
And more motions to go through.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Your love is like ecstacy,
I need it desperately.
It leaves me helplessly,
But I want it endlessly.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I'm breaking down,
And no one's around.
My mouth let's out a sound,
To sadness I am bound.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
My stomach drops,
And you send my head into flops.
My heart stops.
These tears need multiple mops.
Taylor Poole Mar 2016
I hate these moments of silence,
Because my thoughts wander where they shouldn't go.
Running from doubt,
While I try to get away from myself.
These thoughts expose the real me,
While I'm praying for sleep.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
I stay awake,
Scared of what the night will take.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I stare in the mirror at this girl,
A girl who's lost her way.
I sit here, my mind in a swirl.
But weirdly I'm okay.

I look at the empty pill bottle,
And I know death fills me.
I'm empty like that bottle.
I know heaven may reject me.

I couldn't handle all the pains.
I'm weak.
The pills poisoning my veins.
A better place is what I seek.

These eyes watch me die.
I'm not afraid.
Actually I can't lie.
I'm very afraid.

Maybe this wasn't the best,
Maybe there was a chance for me.
Maybe it was all a test.
But now it's too late for me.

There's no saving me.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Running away from this old town,
Because all it ever did was tore me down.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
I was blinded by your light,
But now you're burnt out.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I thought I was running from you,
Turns out I was trying to get away from myself.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
She's torn.
Wishing she was never born.
She became too worn.
But she will never know how many people came to mourn.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I wander this earth uncertain,
Not sure of my current direction.
My purpose not found.
Still questioning why I'm around.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I was wrapped around your finger,
But now these feelings just linger.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
In the moment of goodbye,
I realized just how much I love you.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
You're just a memory,
And it's time for you to fade away.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
My eyes fighting the light,
Not prepared for the nightmares I fight.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I hate everything you do to me.
I hate the way you look at me.
I hate the words you say to me.
I hate the way you love me.

I just want to escape you,
But I cant.
I find myself running back.
For some reason I love you.

So let's escape into hate.
Because I love the way I hate you.
This hate is passion,
And I can't get enough.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Love was once red,
But now it is dead.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I hide behind broken mirrors,
Because I can't stand to see this monster inside of me.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I want to feel something.
Strike the match,
And ignite me.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
It consumes me.
I don't like it,
But I gave you my key.
This feeling throws me into a fit.

I hate other girls looking
I make up these scenarios in my head
I feel you have a plan cooking,
I cry alone in this bed.

I know you're good to me,
But I'm so broken.
This isn't how it's suppose to be.
I question every word that's spoken.

This feeling gets under my skin.
Please don't leave.
I just know the actions of other men.
It's so hard to believe.

This jealousy is me.
I'm sorry.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Opinions everywhere
They rip through my walls,
Exposing my fear.
To my knees I fall.

Be pretty they say
Wear this, wear that
But I'm just not wired the same way.
I don't want to be like that.

I'm careless
I carry beauty in my own way.
I'm a mess.
In my thoughts I stay.

Maybe I will never be the queen.
And maybe that's okay.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
You can't stand to watch me cry,
But you look me straight in my eyes
And you spill out your new lie.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
I like being alone.
Shutting out the world is the best kind of feeling.
It's just you and your thoughts.
You get to know yourself,
And fall in love with little things.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
You are my hearts desire,
And you ignite my fire.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Never let someone go to bed,
Not understanding what you said.
Into heaven they may be led,
Your words, echoing in their head,
There's no take backs when they're dead.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
The moon lighting this old street.
Reminiscing, with only the sound of my heartbeat
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Alone I lie,
In a trance state of mind.
My thoughts screaming,
But I don't move.

Too much pain,
Yet I don't even bother to cry.
I created this violence in my head.
Piercing thoughts until I'm dead.
Taylor Poole Mar 2016
My anxiety is unbearable this time,
I'm having a break down.
The clock is about to chime,
But I feel like a clown.

When I walk in,
I know they will stare.
I know I'm not a ten,
But is this fair?

My insecurities fill my head.
Why am I doing this?
Critical is what I'm being fed.
I walk out knowing it's a hit or miss.

So here goes nothing...
I have a modeling interview today, wish me luck!!
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Wake up,
Another day to do right or ***** up.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I pretend to be okay,
But the truth is I'm far from it.
Life is so bizarre.
You always have to be up to par.

Even when you're trying to be yourself,
You're still being someone else.
Someone else shares your name,
And your style is the same.

When did different become alike?
Unique is now deceased.
When we think we're a leader,
In the end we're just a follower.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
A one night stand,
Is just not for me.
It's something my heart cannot stand.
It's something not meant to be.

One night of lust,
And pretending to love.
Morning comes and I'm left in the dust,
With nobody to love.

My mind plays a trick
And believes there's something more.
Now my heart feels like bricks,
Because you're already out the door.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
Escape the labels,
Just give me this one night.
We can pretend that nothing is something.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
"I'm not who you want to be,
Or what you need.
But yet you can't resist me."
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
Lay in a bed filled with lies,
And now you deal with her tragic demise.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
I'm losing you to the games I play with my mind,
Because I'm scared of what you might find.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
This silence is filled with screams,
And it rips at my dreams.
Taylor Poole Mar 2016
I break down,
While the city sleeps.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I try to hold my tears as long as I can,
So that I can drown out the world in front of me.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I try so hard to be the best,
But it seems my best is trouble.
I find myself making the same mistakes.
I tell myself no, but I lose control.

God are you still listening?
Have you given up on me?
Or am I giving up on myself?
The void in my heart is getting worst.

I'm surrounded by people,
But not by light.
Is heaven out of my reach,
Or is it too late?

All these questions,
Filling my head.
I reach out,
But nothing is there.

I don't want to live this way.
Save me from my mind.
Slipping away into insanity,
Are you there?

Am I worth saving?
Taylor Poole Mar 2016
I wish I could write about pretty things,
But I have to tell you what the darkness brings.
You have to know,
The monsters that live below.
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
I know now of something.
forgotten along the way,
I took advantage of a love given
And in the end taken.

Learning to live without,
Lonely nights and crying out
Empty heart, I took a shot
I reached out and prayed the love remained

You are the beauty of life
I know now
And now I can never forget.
I love you
Taylor Poole Jan 2016
Stay picture perfect,
or society will reject.
Taylor Poole Feb 2016
She can never fall in love,
Because the world taught her to be cold.
Taylor Poole Mar 2016
It takes over me.
My lungs filled with disease,
Making it harder to breathe.
My temperature raised to a high degree.
No medicine can save me,
Just let me be.
I'm obviously sick lol :(
