Tell me everything

Give me the dirt in your soul I don't want pretty and clean I want the ugly and messy the real nitty gritty the raw feelings. Please overshare that story with me, people like you don't scare me, I don't feel uncomfortable when you scream and cry, I feel at home.

A secret

It's been a year since I felt a thing 

the fucking wind doesn't even hit my face the same

the smell of fire isn't as strong

I turned down my own brightness

This year I crave to be noticed

Bracelets that clatter when I feel depressed

how can I love you when I don't love myself

You carry dust in your socks and rearrange the color of your thoughts 
the cherry candle I bought melts out months of your rot
I can buy a brand new lighter to burn every piece of me you shot now I'm left with a memory I'm sure you forgot

Destructive me

Why did I love you so my old friend
The taste of you now is not light at time of bed
I want to erase every memory from my head but who would be my friend till the end 
a face I won't believe till I see them drop dead

A made up reality

I have a friendship with fairy tales and bright white china dolls who collect sparkles in their eyes 
I can show you my safe place where we share all the love our mothers gave us and wonder why our fathers never loved us enough 
This is a memoir to the child with a sour heart

You blow up your pain and burst into vapor
Loving the smell of dangerous nature 

Drink to all things you'll get to later

Thoughts scare us

I feel as if I am mad like the curtain wrapped around my brain is being ripped off and suddenly changed vibrant and loud like all the reactions i let out

When you get upset it overflows

It's easy to say "don't take your anger out on someone. They don't deserve it. Take it out in a healthy way."
But we all get upset, we all lash out, we all get sensitive, and sometimes all we know is how to react viciously towards someone else.
Sometimes you get so upset at everyone around you when the problem lies within yourself. 
Sometimes you can lack control and it's not necessarily your f...

new jeans

I got new jeans last year because when I graduated high school my body began to change. Hips and all. I was surprised and a bit self conscious with the growth of my body. I felt like I wasn't as thin. I remember wearing really tight sports bras to cover up my boobs. I didn't want to seem curvy. I wanted to seem skinny. I'm currently learning to accept my body for it is growing everyday. not being ...

We exchange stories that change us forever

We all met different people who give us a reason to keep fighting.
It's exciting to know I haven't met all the souls I was meant to and I can't wait to see where these people take me how they'll help me heal. It can be scary when you feel alone in a mind crushing with madness, but you will meet someone who will show you why we become darkness. They will give you a hand like you never knew unlike ...

Alone

When you weren't looking I knocked on the door of your soul 
I noticed glass was the product you chose 
Maybe I can help myself first before you see me marveling the build up of dark you hold  
You had rose petal eyes with words powerful enough to make old bruises swell 
you opened your mouth when the lights were out and the flowers flowed with a color I've never seen before

Diary

I've realized I continuously put myself down there's this side to me that's almost evil. 
I don't know why it brings itself to my mind embedded in my cells.
It talks in tones that echo into my speech.
I want to take this part of me and shed it off to throw it over a cliff. 
It's the doubt that's infectious.
As I have always seen shutting down as the only choice.
When that is such a awful way...

Know you deserve the best

How could she believe anything you'd say.

I wonder what lie your selling for your lost hope in being vain.

take back the brag that's written for personal gain.

The pride you hold in your teeth portraying it's not a game.

Took away her trust in place of holding a temporary face.

Still you claim she's your love.

Look at the damage you've done.

The lies we accept

I Stomped on your glass when you claimed to carry my feet
Does dishonestly make you complete
A sick way you got to me
One thing I'll never believe
All the beautiful words not meant for you to speak
Every goodbye you give is fallen on hurt you can't see 
I handed you a piece freely when I was drawn in with false feelings

Lock me in a coffin filled with red roses this pain is one that reoccurs with a strong notice 
You ran the water dry lead me up real high 
To inject me with a thread

Supportive loyal fake friends

People come and go, sometimes you think it will last forever. 
Don't we wish friendships had stronger ties. 
But friendships can be exhausting.
They can be toxic.
They can be over in a text paragraph. 
You can get your heart broken by friends.
Some people aren't willing to love you like you love them. So you let them go.

my own relationship with god

What a twisted way we portray God in the media. Our society has us fooled.

Along the stream we all go. Unpopular opinions unwanted. Banished. Shamed.

We are a foolish society with open minds but not open hearts.

Offended by anything we take this too seriously.

so why should I care what any of them think. Let me love God.

let me do me. Flourish within my soul.

What a drag it is to be an individual. Brave hearts are only capable to go against the grain.

For it is exhausting. Not to be myself but to accept myself. knowing the inner fire that builds

it snaps at whoever gets in my way. It can break me I must say it has broken me many times.

It has also evolved me from the ash. A strong girl I've become.

I swore some people got off on tragedy. In a twisted way it gave them something outrageous to feel.

It set a fire to run through with abusive feelings. Kind of an excuse to act out. I'm not sure if these people
