I watched her lips get wet, as she took a drag from her cigarette. I held her close when I heard her shout, because she finally knew, I had her figured out. Don’t be so pretty, don’t be so coy. Don’t walk away, don’t act like a boy. Don’t question my feelings or make me sore. Don’t, just please don’t, walk out of that door. I want to be the only person, in. Your. room. I want to feel your eyes on me. I want to be the one that you can only, desire. Kissed by a moment. And if you can convince me I am pretty, I will marry you. So many rules, too many ways to be right. Oh, but please, don’t get me so wrong. Don’t interrupt, don’t guess who I am, or come on too strong. You may not understand that I am myself. Please don’t let my deficit be your burden of wealth. I just want you. To love yourself. Too much to ask? Too much to grasp. I want to feel your arms around me, feel your heart against me. And know, that you are there. No two bit stamp on the back of my hand, a fleeting night under the sheets. No, convince me I am pretty, and I will walk with your shadow til the sunsets. I am not your buddy, I don’t facilitate second-hand-emotion. I do David Bowie, I do listening to the rain, I do dancing drinking, I do living without shame. And of these words that have been said before, keep gett-ing, left behind with the close of a door. Isn’t it shame you tried so very hard? Clouded, misjudged, may be a bit plus-tard? I hate apologies, or the shame of self defeat, where is your fight? Please ground your feet. I am getting bored of myself; the intricacies of freedom hidden in a secret box. Convince me I am pretty, for your are the one who only would know. I watched her eyes drift to the side, as she held back tears she could never cry. I held her closest when she pushed me away, and when she told me to leave, I made myself stay. Do be you, do smile when you can, do hold my hand, do act like the man. Do make me talk, don’t make me talk **** just make me realise, you love me just even a little bit. And when I convince myself I am pretty, I’ll be fine, just fine.

Convincing me
I watched her lips get wet, as she took a drag from her cigarette. I held her close when I heard her shout, because she finally knew, I had her figured out. Don’t be so pretty, don’t be so coy. Don’t walk away, don’t act like a boy. Don’t question my feelings or make me sore. Don’t, just please don’t, walk out of that door. I want to be the only person, in. Your. room. I want to feel your eyes on me. I want to be the one that you can only, desire. Kissed by a moment. And if you can convince me I am pretty, I will marry you. So many rules, too many ways to be right.

Your life has been hard, It has And you're not even seventeen yet You've just learned to wear your hair in a ponytail, Even though it doesn't cover your face as well Now everyone can see that face, That tiny little forehead, And those eyes that aren't quite green or gray or blue, But full of hope Hope, That is the color of your eyes When you look in the mirror and hate yourself to pieces When you wanted to grab a pair of scissors and cut off those beautiful belly rolls And when you wanted to carve out a new shape for your nose Ther's still hope, In your eyes Because that is what your made of, and it shines through Every time you've been broken down Countless times Every day on your way to school Stepping through the gates of hell on earth When they called you names The sticks and stones Staring at you in the corridor When you got through your ninth year When you saw your grandmother and all the safety she was die, For the third time When you realized that this time she wasn't coming back When you told your dad you hated him, And every time you realize you still do When they crushed you There was still hope left in you, if only the smallest grain You always believed there would be a better day, Even when you sunk the blade of a pocket knife into your own skin, And you could barely see through the tears in your eyes, And you mom cried, And she held you, And you said "No, you'll gett blood all over yourself" And she screamed a little, And there and then, at fourteen years old you thought that this, This is rock bottom You knew the only way out was through, You knew And that's why you made it, Because no matter how sure you were that you'd given up you never really had. That's why you, Eleven years old, You didn't jump , You didn't No matter how hard you believed in the freedom of bones cracking, In just a second Floating away, You never managed to convince yourself it would be worth it, Because what if the sun will rise tomorrow and you will be okay? Maybe that won't happen for another week or ten or twenty years But it still wouldn't be wort it, Because WHAT IF You don't want to miss out, You don't want to be the jinx, Miss your whole life just because you got tired so you left early, So instead you flew Because you knew You' pull trough And you did You bright bright ray of light You brilliant star Even though you are covered in scars And that's okay, It's okay Now look in the mirror, Look me in the eye, And say after me                                                              It's okay                                               You did it                            It's over now
