Maybe, you should've tried harder.
Harder for her not to have any reasons at all.

Try again. Fail again, better.

Do not shrink yourself to fit into places you've outgrown.

If it no longer feels like home, it's time to move on.

Forth Worth

I was twelve when I asked my mom
"Is 925 sterling silver necklace worth something?"
As seen on the necklace I received;
From a boy I never noticed.

My mom responded,
"Depends on how you are treated after receiving such thing."

I never looked at things the same way,
Ever again.

Her

Her
The things that she's paying attention to,
Are actually the things that matters to her.

The things that she apologizes for,
Are the things that offends her.

Pay attention to her and the things that matter.

The Day You Apologized
ultraviolet Aug 2021
I pinned your apology against my wall;
Looked at it for most of the days.

I went through hell, but I never stopped there.
Why tf would I stay in Hell?

I have healed my wounds on my own,
Without any closure,
And no apologies from you.

But if you think apologizing to me wil help you move forward, sure.

I'm way past you.

You ever feel like you don't have any friends?

Valid questions:
Why am I still here?
Who are these people?
What should I say next?
Are they expecting me to say something next?

Your freckles are one of too many constellations built

As no galaxies are alike.

That's Better
ultraviolet Nov 2020
I'm not afraid anymore of the sound I make inside the public comfort room whenever I take a ***. It's normal, I tell myself, you're doing okay.

I don't hide behind my hair anymore whenever I ride the transit. They're not looking at you, I tell myself, you're doing alright.

I don't whisper my stories in the corridor anymore. Speak normal, I tell myself, you're doing fine.

Today, I decided not to hide behind closed doors, not to chew every people's reaction into my head and stop playing their opinions on my ipad.

Today, I will go out there, wear my loveliest dress and be like a field of sunflowers-- beautiful and satisfying.
I'm gonna wear my skin and my skin will be the prettiest of them all.

I am beautiful, I tell myself, that's better.

You look happy,
but not the kind of happy you pretend to be.

More like social media-type of happy, and it's not a good thing to look at.

You're not a good thing to look at.

Zombies are Real
ultraviolet Oct 2020
They wake up very morning, dress up and go out just like everyone else.
They go to work with empty heads and empty hearts.
No, they smile, too.
Doing the same things in circles.

Day in and day out, you go to the same place and do more or less of the same thing for way too little money or credit.

We forget.
We no longer dream.
We just wander.
