I think I’ll always be the one standing at the edge of the crowd laughing at the jokes people tell without me.
If my family must tell my story they will say I was a monster

They will tell tall tales of white white anger

Of how I never listened and pretended I was the master

They will say she was extravagant but hell if you could get her to say so

She lies through her teeth and pretended she was a Saint you know ?

If my family must tell my story they will proclaim what they say is the truth

They'll try their hardest to stain my already ruined reputation and say we're just looking out for you

If I was humble I would never have known for their tales of pride have convinced me

If I was sweet I would never know because they claim if I am it's an anomaly

All this I tell you
Making me look like a desperado
But your family are the ones who know you best too
I really don't have a defense
For if I were here to tell you the lies

I would have said

I am a Saint and my family thinks so too

I am a Saint
I am happy
And my family
My family

If my family were to tell my story they would tell my friends first
The friends I lied to the ones who said how could you be the worst
You're an angel and I'd say Hush
You're making me blush

I wasn't even flattered
I am a monster and my family knows it too

If my family were to tell my story
Listen
They are the ones who know what's true.
And there I stood
This is what you made
This is what you did
Breaths are shallow
Hearts thundering
Stopping the battle only to lose the war
Sometimes, I wonder
Am I those pretty girls who you want to smack cos you’re  so **** hot? Like bro Why can’t you see it
Or am I pretty bcos of my personality
Or am I just personality
Or maybe not even that
Self depreciation, love
It’s called self deprecation,genius

I planned this speech for a book in the bathroom

I like it

I think best in the bathroom

Tmi, I know
Sometimes you never know what might come out of your mouth. And sometimes you do and it's things like this. And you just think
Wow
You are a ***** do you know that
Serenity was my enemy, who became my greatest friend
But Serenity flies through lovers like an unloyal cat eating the cream from every hand but mine
To think I thought this up to impress a poet I saw on Instagram. I wonder where she is in the world now.
I’m at the edge of regret and relief
The thin lines are growing on its cliff
Do I let myself fall into despair
Or crawl back into the arms of peace
Her arms are cold, where they were once warm
And her eyes bottomless are red red red
Where is the anger
It’s in her eyes
Where is the frustration
It’s in her arms
She’s tired
I’m tired
So I let myself fall
And I hope I don’t regret that too
All this from a person whose never been in a relationship. Makes you wonder

Only sometimes
Sometimes i feel that jaw numbing pain
The one I used to feel when everything between us was
Well
What it is now
Sometimes I feel it
I feel it when you look at me and that spark is gone from your eyes
I feel it when I say hello and you do too but it's almost as if you're saying goodbye
But Sometimes I feel it
When the birds chirp the way they used to
The way they chirped when i was with you
Yes i know. Very cliche.
You’re worried about your pyjamas
I’m worried that when you stab my heart
You’ll see only you are in it
Or when you slit my throat
You’ll see praises in your name waiting in it
I’m worried that even though you are ripping my soul from me
I will still look in your eyes and say :
“Take what is urs”
I’m worried that I’ll hand over my mutilated heart and still trust you to protect it even as your teeth clamp over my jugular
I’m worried you’ll feel the thrumming of my heart the trembling of my bones because you chose to lay your hands on me
Your worry is for yourself
My worry is for yourself
But my biggest worry is that my love, when handed to you, will be a burden that you’ll have to live with
Knowing instead of my voice telling you I love you
You’ll have my blood telling you
That even in death, I will never stop
I sometimes think of it
U standing In ur pyjamas blood all over you,
I think of it and know without a doubt,
My love cost you my death
My pain has ended
But yours has just begun
Starting from the bouquet of roses you never gave me
The amount of times you never defended me
My revenge is my love
I die and leave this pain
And you
You will spend ur days in its cage
I wrote this as a joke to my best friend one day and well now it's my best artwork

I created a backstory and basically in my mind the character here is Elizabeth Bennetts sister Lydia after marrying that man
She's so in love but she s knows he doesn't love her back but she'd rather die than leave because even if he kills her to her it's his own form of love.
So she writes poetry and hopes that one day he'll find it and remember what they used to be but he never does and she dies
The only thing her children learn is that love kills

— The End —
