I've loved only one
in my eighteen years
and stopped myself before
I could love another.

I grew up without
love, not knowing what
it felt like to
be loved or to
love someone else.

But now, I  know
what love is after
I've seen and experienced
it.

Except when I fell
in love, it was
only me who fell..

And I don't plan
on falling again unless
I know I will
be caught.

Your voice is a drug
that I can't get enough of.

--

Your voice is a drug
and I'm addicted.

I want to learn
script, so maybe
I can feel as pretty
as my handwriting.

No, stop, no.
There's no point
in having feelings
for another.
This way there
is no pain.
There's no more
games.
You never have
to guess if
they like you.
Focus on you,
you don't need
A boy.
All you need is
you.

"Write," I whisper to myself.
"Write, keep writing, don't cry. Just write. You'll feel better."
Don't stop writing.
This is your only escape, you are only free when you write.

My "family" is
not a real
family.
There is only
hared,
no love.
We despise one
another and
it seems like
we have
competitions
of who can insult
eachother the most,
only to see who
goes crazy first.

Please hold me,
Tell me everything
Is going to
Be okay,
As I sob
Into your chest.
Hold me tight,
But not too tight,
For I am fragile
And pieces of me
Are already missing...
I don't think I can
Afford to lose anymore.
Is that too much to ask?
I'm sorry.
