It's just a little crush--really. But it was a secret For a reason I chose not to tell. My friend found out today. I freaked out--really. But it's just a little crush, right? Not one to last the lifetime. If it was, I didn't have to keep it secret. Right?

crush
I am quick to cry and to anger and people think I'm strange. They don't see how hard I try to control it, I know I'm seen as deranged. Emotions can be overbearing and it's difficult to stay quiet when someone upsets me It's simply not easy to hide it. I guessed for a long time that the issue was with me. But I thought I could watch maybe learn their technique. For keeping a cool head when things get heated. Instead of losing it over nothing and feeling totally defeated. I was wrong it turned out. I don't have breaks I have border as in borderline personality disorder. I got a diagnosis and was incredibly afraid that people would treat me like someone who'd contracted the plague. While I wasn't right, I wasn't totally wrong, mental illness is unfortunately still mostly ignored. If I was unwell with a headache, people would ask 'Are you okay?' 'Here I've got Panadol Actifast.' But when the ills In the mind and I say 'I'm feeling down' 9 times out of 10 people get freaked out. So it's tough when you're shamed For having a disorder A lot of normal people suffer So could your son or daughter. So next time you hear someone say 'I'm feeling down.' Do me one favour and please, just don't freak out. It's hard enough already dealing with this day to day without having friends turn their backs and walk away.

***I really like Christmas It's sentimental, I know, but I just really like it I am hardly religious I'd rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu, to be honest And yes, I have all of the usual objections To consumerism, the commercialisation of an ancient religion To the westernisation of a dead Palestinian Press-ganged into selling Playstations and beer But I still really like it I'm looking forward to Christmas Though I'm not expecting a visit from Jesus I'll be seeing my dad My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum They'll be drinking white wine in the sun I'll be seeing my dad My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum They'll be drinking white wine in the sun I don't go in for ancient wisdom I don't believe just 'cos ideas are tenacious it means they are worthy I get freaked out by churches Some of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy And yes I have all of the usual objections To the miseducation of children who, in tax-exempt institutions, Are taught to externalise blame And to feel ashamed and to judge things as plain right and wrong But I quite like the songs I'm not expecting big presents The old combination of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by me Cos I'll be seeing my dad My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum They'll be drinking white wine in the sun I'll be seeing my dad My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum They'll be drinking white wine in the sun*** **And you, my baby girl My jetlagged infant daughter You'll be handed round the room Like a puppy at a primary school And you won't understand But you will learn someday That wherever you are and whatever you face These are the people who'll make you feel safe in this world My sweet blue-eyed girl And if, my baby girl When you're twenty-one or thirty-one And Christmas comes around And you find yourself nine thousand miles from home You'll know what ever comes Your brother and sisters and me and your Mum Will be waiting for you in the sun Whenever you come Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles Your grandparents, cousins and me and your mum We'll be waiting for you in the sun Drinking white wine in the sun Darling, when Christmas comes We'll be waiting for you in the sun Drinking white wine in the sun Waiting for you in the sun Waiting for you...

I took too many busporine, But I'm still anxious. I'm still ******* freaked. I'm still nervously shaking. I'm still sputtering about. I'm still worried why you haven't opened my message. I know this whole thing is new. I know you're probably sleeping. I know you have a life outside of me. I know you sometimes need a break from me. But my anxiety doesn't. My anxiety doesn't get that you're busy. Anxiety doesn't get that you're sleeping. Anxiety doesn't get that maybe you just want some space. Anxiety doesn't get that I didn't do anything wrong, And that your feelings for me haven't changed. Anxiety is scared. Anxiety is panicking. Anxiety is popping one too many pills. Anxiety is crying and trying not to cut again. Anxiety is worrying that you've found someone else. Anxiety is worried that you're out with them now and just ignoring me until you're ***** later tonight. Jesus Christ, Anxiety. Give me a break, Quit giving me a battle. Jesus ******* Christ, Anxiety. Take a deep breath, Try to stay rational. Jesus ******* Christ, Anxiety. I'm trying to salvage a relationship here, And ruin the one I have with you.

It wasn't quite a party. More of a kickback just ten or twelve friends drinking and smoking from a huge glass **** all of them huddled around the computer watching funny videos on YouTube of people getting hurt and **** The guy at the controls went to a website ratemyboobs.com or ratemytits.com something like that and the four girls there all moaned and groaned saying they didn't want to see **** like that. The guys all laughed and continued rating the pictures of ***** as they came up one by one when all of the sudden a picture of a guy holding his **** came up on the screen. The girls finally had a reason to laugh the guys were all grossed out but one guy more than anyone else he freaked out. "What the **** bro?! I don't wanna see guy's ***** I'm not gay!" "Relax man...no one said that you were. Chill out." He looked like he was hyperventilating and about to break out in ******* hives. "But that's gay **** bro! I'm not gay, so I don't wanna see that **** **** He stomped off to the backyard lighting a cigarette you could still hear him out there shouting over and over "I'm not gay. I'm not ******* gay!" he yelled, pacing back & forth. Everyone around the computer didn't know what to say so they just chuckled quietly and then someone said it. What every person there was thinking, "Wow. That's sad. He's totally gay." one of the girls said. "Yup. Totally gay..." the guy at the computer said cracking up. He rated the **** picture ten out of ten and moved on to more ****

Your truck knows it all It contains our whole relationship It knows the beginning, middle and end I loved seeing those lights Knowing you were driving to come pick me up It made me really happy And sometimes Even a little nervous But in a good way In the summertime We had the windows rolled down because it was hot In the winter it was cold But we'd find a place to park and make it July warm I almost lost my innocence in that passenger seat We did so much in that truck We talked Laughed Shared Kissed Argued Cried Stressed Freaked out Held each other Loved That truck knows it all Those camouflage seat covers still hold our passionate sweat The drooping brownish red ceiling absorbed all our words, feelings and keeps them there Even today The plastic in front of the gas gauge doesn't feel as whole without one of my pictures covering it The center console probably still holds one of my notes Saying how much I love about you Who knows, the glovebox still may hold my garter The lace with a tear on it from prom When the truck heard you say you didn't care anymore That truck holds everything All the feelings and emotions Maybe not so close to the surface anymore But it will never forget the stuff you've let yourself unremember That maroon Chevy still loves me Even if you don't.

COMPUTERS!!!!!!! :*(
I always walk up the stairs with a cup of tea filled to the brim. Not even walking just taking small steps periodically just in case the tea spilled. Sometimes I made it to the top and sometimes I spilled it and I would have to come back downstairs, go the the kitchen, get a paper towel, wipe up the mess, throw the paper towel away and try again. It was a very tedious Task. My mother used to yell at me for the times I get too lazy to clean up the mess and just allow the tea to dry up on the floor to stick. When I was twelve I realized how many times I allowed the tea to dry up. Most of the time I didn't even care if all the tea spilled by the time I got to the last staircase. The boiling hot tea spilling on my feet and the carpet and the granite didn't bother me. My mind was wayward- somewhere unknown. My thought process didn't care to think about my mother after a hard days work coming home to yell at her old enough daughter to stop drinking upstairs. She used to get so mad at me sometimes wondering why I always said "I don't care,". She used to despise me for it, and I did too. Maybe I liked how the tea burned my feet causing me to walk faster, maybe I liked the pain. Maybe I was too busy to care about the abundance of spills maybe I wasn't. Maybe I just didn't care. The whole world stopped spinning for me but my mind didn't. I loved leaving a trail of sweet hot tea for me to follow again and again, my mother didn't. Finally my mother broke all the teacups and threw away all the tea we had in the house. In all honesty I freaked out. I could've ripped the whole house from its foundation and throw it toward the horizon. I could've take matches and burn the place down letting its ashes fill the toxic sky. I could've done all of that. But I didn't. I disintegrated into my covers and let my bed seep me in, like tea leaves brewing. I was brewing. And like the perfect cup of tea, I finally became that dark, rich color with the perfect amount of milk and sugar, placed onto a saucer that was the right size. I the ridges kept me in place and the walk upstairs wasn't so bad anymore.

He got expelled this time. He wasn't sent to In-school suspension Or lunch detention Or the counselor's office. He was expelled from Fairfax County Public Schools. And his friends all freaked. They sat outside the school Every morning And wouldn't go in To protest. They signed a petition That called him a "Well rounded student" And "Well loved by the student body." I didn't love Brian. I hated Brian. Brian was the kid Who always Made the class Stay late. He was the kid who Went through the halls Grabbing peoples butts. He was the kid that All the guys wanted to be And all the girls wanted to have. And instead of sending him off To West Point Where he would have to Shave his Bieber hair and Follow the rules for once, The county revoked the expulsion. And to me It seems like A celebrity murdered someone And because a thousand fan letters were sent in They got to go free.

Its about one in the morning I know I have to get up at 7 I wish I was knocked out snoring I told myself I’d go to the gym at 11 I guess I can never keep a promise to myself There are so many things I should do But I just put **** off and keep it on a mental shelf Why can’t I ever follow through I told myself I’d tell you I liked you weeks ago But then I figured that you wouldn’t care You’re always with your friends for all I know If I told you I bet you’d just stare I told myself I’d get in shape this year But surprise I actually gained weight Being fat again is the worst thing I fear This week I’ve tracked all the calories I ate I told myself I’d try to stay in a relationship But two weeks in I freaked and ended it I got too annoyed kissing your lips I can’t pretend to be interested in this **** I told myself if other people are happy dating Then I could probably be happy too But I’m not comfortable with anything more than a fling Monogamy just isn’t something I can do I told myself I’d get my **** together this time Yet I’m snorting addies at a Philly party Then proceeding to cry about how I’m Such A Piece Of ****

Procrastination
All this pain, studies and pressure. It's getting frustrating and stressful but I must do better. Just a couple more days until, hm......ahm doomsday is here. The days that CXC falls upon us, will we be happy or full of fear. But God is good Mock Exams are coming, HOORAY!! I'll prepare to study. I would be ashamed to waste five years of hard work. A greater shame to let not only myself down but those who had faith me. Because many have tried and failed the work, But a lot have passed boy hmm.... you don't have a clue. Stay focus and calm as you can. Because the failure or success in your life, is your number one determination. So ladies and gentle men get ready for war, Because we have to **** them papers, we have to **** it for sure. Duh get scared and duh get freaked out, Freaked out!...... of what....CXC nah that should be like a KFC take out. And remember to pray and give God thanks for life, Today isn't the only day you did something he didn't like. So just in case he choose to take it back in spite. Be patient, for the sun is for the day, And the moon for the night. Don't rush it, VICTORY will come when the time is right.

She knew, right afterward. Amazing. She knew. I took her word for it. Oo-Oo-Oocyte! The largest, roundest cell Females have. It is Visible to the eye Clothed or nakey. With the largest surface Volume in relation to Her cell-fluid-gorged surface. One is produced ea/month. One? Yowza. Me? Millions of the little buggers. Millions! Yeah! THAT’s The ticket! And tiny those little tickets are. Hardly more than a nucleus with That powerhouse of the cell, The Mitochondrial outboard motor, Propelling the tail. The smallest and straightest Human cell (Cool tail, though) The juxtaposition is kind Of amazing. Large vs. small. Roundest vs. straightest. Tail-propelled nucleus Vs. Moon-shaped cytoplasm. The opposite, embryologically- Speaking. And she was positive, POSITIVE We’d conceived. Roughly 9 months later, I was there. Physically. The rest of me was Possibly sunning in Togo. Kind of freaked me out, The birthing process, The first time. My son. My baby boy. Our child. 5/28/91. I’m more proud and more Astonished at the man My little baby has grown into With each passing day. Golden child, beginning Life with blonde hair, Almost white, darkening As he grew into the French- Indian DNA of his Mom’s side of the family. He is so much like His Mother, for which I’m very happy, Because his Mother Is simply amazing And worthy of an entire Slew of poems just To describe her. And I’ve another Golden child Gold blessing vein running True and deep, different Than his older brother Of seven years, Yet similar, opposite in Some ways, having grown strong As the little plaything for His older brother’s friends, Making him very tough, Strong as a team of oxen, A work ethic he inherited From Dad, Mom, Brother Yet fitting together as Loving siblings can When they have God At the center of their lives. Thank You, God, for My two sons. I’m protective, but I know They do not belong to me. They are Your blessings To my wife and me. They are Your blessings To this world, set in motion, Wound up to take what they see And make it better, and To prevent it from getting worse. They will do Your work. We were the biological Vessels that delivered Them from Your world Before To this world, Now.

Vacant. Empty. Twisted. Lacking. Chills shoot though my body filling the cracks whatever is left Let go of the Meaning of LIFE and one is lost Worried. Angered. Freaked. Spinning. Words jotted down upon an empty page to show giving proof to rage Reality is no kind reminder in correction of humanness Stupidity. Irony. Pathetic. Foolish. These eyes have absorbed from the outside world all which is meaningless Vibrant life left behind to retrieve if one is wise Hope. Love. Joy. Peace. Never take the God-given gifts taken for granted or hard ways shall teach Throw them aside as ******* and despair will find what's left Trash. Pathetic. Waste. Shameful. Such trash is how I perceive some to view my vehemency No integrity do they see in what these eyes hold scared Purity. Integrity. Honesty. Valiancy. Which spring from the soul and mind diluted from ones first breath in the flesh Access to God diluted from what cannot be achieved Sovereignty. Omniscience. Omnipresent. Agape. Witness madness for what God has been met first hand is just in righteousness Full of grace and mercy to those who Seek Him Loving. Wise. Holy. Eternal. To those Who serve Him He gives of Himself correcting those He loves Comfort is naught promised for character is His measure   Sanctification. Tried. True. Loyalty. Purifying His people through teaching His ways is the foremost goal As choice gold refined and proved accordingly

myself
Life is not easy like almost everyone thinks it is. My mom always told me that life isn’t easy, kids just have it easy. I didn’t believe her, I fought with her all the time, and sometimes it got physical. I hated living with my mom, and I wanted to have my own rules, like almost every teenager. So I started leaving and going with my friends, and running the streets all day and all night, not going to school, not even caring what I was missing, I just knew I was free. I had no rules, no consequences, and nothing going for myself. I was a goody-goody, I did the right things, I went to school, I didn’t do anything to harm myself. I remember those days, and I thrived for a do-over. I've heard things, that I wouldn't dream of repeating to my mother. I've seen things that no other person should have to see. I've seen people doing things that I prayed every night, that I wouldn't get caught up in. I worried that I would make all the wrong choices, and mess my entire life up, beyond return. I thought I knew what I was doing, but I guess my mom was right. School had no value to me anymore. I didn't want to be in this town I'm supposed to call "home”. I didn't want to be anywhere. I bluntly admitted to my mother that I was contemplating suicide. My mother made me move with my dad in Buckfield, and I went. I went back to my moms for the balloon festival. But, two days before the festival, my dad made me come back to his house. I told my dad that I was going back to my moms, him and his girlfriend freaked out. They started restraining me from leaving, by grabbing the collar of my shirt, and therefore choking me. My dad pushed me to the floor, sat on top of me, shoving my face into the floor, and was screaming “What kind of drugs are you on?” I’m going to be 100% honest, I have been verbally, emotionally, physically, and sexually abused. I’ve been slapped across the face by my mom’s ex-husband, on multiple occasions. He’s almost given me a concussion, from shoving me against the wall. Like I have said, life is not easy… Life is not fair. But, had I not been through everything that I have been through, I wouldn’t be the way I am. I may have gone through hard times, a lot of them at that, but it’s made me strong and independent. I’ve had some really good friends who support and love me, I have had really good family friends that have helped me be who I am today. I am now really close to my mom, I am home all the time, I go to school all day everyday. In the past couple months, I turned my life around. Don’t make the same mistakes I did. Life is not easy that way, you need school, you need friends and family. As much as you may think you don’t need family, you do. It’s is what helps you get through your everyday struggle.

Life's Not Easy
Life is not easy like almost everyone thinks it is. My mom always told me that life isn’t easy, kids just have it easy.

I recently got into a little kundalini yoga and joined the Zen group on Facebook, and it was like being plugged into an electric socket. I didn't sing the body electric, I freaked out. Panic, anxiety, and mania ensued. This **** can be dangerous. I saw my doctor and he gave me more medicine. Now, I'm fine. Whew.

I'm Scared Shitless Of The Body/Mind Electric
I spoke to a wasp today. And he told me his story. He spoke to me about his childhood, and watching his own family being murdered. It was a bright and warm Friday evening. His father had ventured out and flew among the humans that lived in the home of his home. The smell of liquor permeated the air, as did the barbeque that was nearly too done. He drew close to the man of the home, just to watch and observe the scene. The man didn't like it too much. So he swatted him. It didn't hurt him, however, but it did confuse him. And in his confusion he landed upon the man and planted his stinger within him. The man slammed his hand down, cursing as the wasp's father's guts bled out. There was nothing the wasp could do but watch. The woman of the house asked if the man was ok. The man cursed once more and slammed his glass on the ground. The woman became upset and demanded to know why. The man had no answer. He merely just grabbed a gas can, took another ...swig of liquor, and walked up to the wasp's home and began dousing it in gasoline. The woman freaked out, afraid of what was about to happen. The man merely cursed at her as well and shoved her to the ground. When she tried to get back up he kicked her in the face. The blood poured. The wasp's home was now soaked in a lethal liquid. The man had a sinister grin as he glanced at his crying and bleeding woman lying on the ground, and he laughed as he lit a match and threw it on the wasp home. The nest went up in flames, and shortly after the home of the man did too. The little wasp escaped, unable to save the lives of his screaming family being burnt alive. The man merely laughed; the woman lay crying; the nest burnt to ashes; the house burnt down. So now the little wasp is all grown up. And when I asked what he wants to do with his life, all he replied was, "I want to sting people...because it seems that is all every creature is meant to do." ♥

He's just too excitable, not my type Sure, Comma was more sedate but a little too slow for me, you know So I gave guys like Inverted Commas and Parenthesis a try - but hell, they were always trying to frame me So I like said to myself, maybe I'll try someone else from the Mark family, and woooh! - this guy was like questioning me all through dinner and I was like thinking to myself: *What's with this guy? Where does he work? At the NSA or FBI or what?* I guess you know who I'm talking about Well, I dated all the other guys too like Semi-Colon and then Colon but you know, one liked to separate; and the other was always out with his smartphone listing things I said 2 So I nearly gave up dating when I thought - *Hey what about Dash? That's a dashing fellow surely and he seems to be just like me* (except he is - as is apt for a guy - long) but he was just like Semi-Colon - always separating people You got to bring people together in this world, you know; that's what this world needs Yes, I dated Full Stop too but he was always getting me to stop and besides, he said his alias was Period - now that freaked me out, you know *Hey, what kind of guy walks around with a name like Period?* I'll tell you like who's the worst guy to date, OK - that's Apostrophe: O listen darling, was he ever so possessive! 3 Well, I'll give my dating career a break - maybe come next year, I might try dating 2nd of February

I woke up feeling frustrated today a part of me just exploded I couldn't figure out what the hell was wrong with me so I freaked out and cried I wouldn't let anyone be there for me I just wanted to be left alone As I went for a walk for six hours straight I didn't even pick up my phone People get mad at me because they can't understand me not even my Mother does The way I act, the things I wear I do just because I don't go out to impress anyone if anything people should impress me I don't let others in so easily so thank your lucky stars if you know me I'm not hear to make things easier for others I'm a challenge you can't stand I'm intimidating for a reason I don't let any guy just hold my hand I woke up in a very ****** off mood it happens from time to time If you can't handle me at my worst then your not a good friend of mine.

If You Can't Handle Me At My Worst You Sure As Hell Can't Handle Me At My Best
Unworthy- 31/January/2021 1.22Am That day when you asked if you could tell me a secret I was so excited, But to be honest I freaked out. I was so unworthy of that weight. My simple heart cannot hold such pressure. The weight you are carrying. The knowledge that you've earned. I felt so unworthy of the words that would spill out of your lips. That day I felt something different. I thought I knew knowledge, I thought I knew how to take life as easily as a floating feather. I thought I knew how to take my problems and put it down with my fists. I thought I knew what is love. But that day your eyes told me a different story. Your eyes showed me a story of a thousand nights. A forest of thousand lives. A Library with thousand books. A universe of thousand skies. Your eyes asked for trust that day It asked for a chamber with a lost key, Locked away and cannot be found for eternity. But I am just a human. Unworthy of the treasury you wanted to give. Illiterate to the feelings you wanted to share. And unworthy of your trust.

Unworthy
I am awoken by a nagging in my head its in my mothers voice the urgency, I don't know what for, its 5 am. my submission doesn't speak. I fill the air with the sound of my nonsense, a rambling of dreams, "dont burst the bubble, burst the bubble, burst the-" a never ending melody. Because there is nothing louder than this, I have wanted to crawl out of my skin long before I knew it was mine. And theirs, not mine entirely, composed of DNA so imperfect even the gods would've laughed. If you ever want to **** something up to the point its unrecognizable, give it to me, look what I did to my own potential. Squander doesn't begin to cover it, almost out of spite. and i must stop it before it reaches my eyes it has a certain way of clouding them over and I just dont want people to realize that I am swallowing a lump at the back of my throat what seems like forever trying not to get my eyes to burn or dig my nails deep into someones throat just to feel their artery and scream "YOU ******* FEEL IT DONT YOU? ARE YOU ALIVE? ARE YOU REALLY HERE? YOU ARE ALIVE, ALIVE ALIVE!." Then place the sharp bits of my nails against my skin, hard and not feel anything I struggle with self control especially with *** and drugs and alcohol. I yell too often, never loud enough to make them hear me. I am afraid of my own voice telling people to shut up Jack knows its not a good thing if I whisper last time I did I said "I don't have a pulse, I cant find my pulse." Before I freaked out and smashed that vase against the wall and laughed at what a sad broken cliche I have become. My anger came out in sputtering sobs And he tried to hold me because that's what people do in movies cue the background music but I didn't let him because I was never any good at acting, and he never got mad when I hit him I can hear that "Sshhhh" at the back of my ear Forever. and I could wince at my own humiliation if I gave a **** I wont lie it was awkward he sounded scared "aww dont c-c-ry" thought I saw a tear there too
