So Sick (of all This Shit)
Everything inside of me hurts.
I feel like I'm burning.
I feel like the only way
it'll get better is
if if I am bleeding.
My life is in ruins.
I'm broken into tiny,
fragile pieces of who
I once was.
I
am
so
sick
of
all
this
shit.
I want this all to
be over. I want
this to end.
I want to be dead.
I want to be dead.
So, tomorrow
I'll
put
a
bullet
in
my
head.
I don't want to use
my friends anymore.
They need me to
be there to support
them, not just...

The Girl that Used to Be
Breathing
Is so much harder
Than it sounds.
People will talk
And I will
Listen to every
Word.
I can barely
Breath,
Sleep,
Or eat.
I can barely
Be.
I don't feel
Like myself
Anymore.
I don't feel
Like anyone
Anymore.
I feel like
The girl that
Used to be.
The girl that
Once was me.
Now, I am empty.
Was it even worth
It?
Is all this
Suffering going
To somehow bring
Me peace?
No.
And I already
Fucking know...
Is so much harder
Than it sounds.

Blame me
Blame me.
Go ahead, do it.
Blame me.
It's my fault anyway.
It's always been my
Fault. All these
Stupid mistakes
That I never learn
From and I just keep
Repeating
Repeating
Repeating
Like a fucking
Broken record. Just
Like me, broken
Wide open.
My heart spills out
Of my chest and you
Hold on to it
Like it's yours.
You try to heal me,
But
You should know
I'm not the type
To be healed. I'm
The type that should
Be blamed for everything
Because it is
...
Go ahead, do it.

Avoiding You (Because I Care)
Avoiding your eyes,
Almost as if
To see them
Would be my demise.
I pretended not
To notice you.
I pretended to be
Talking and laughing
And distracted and,
Hopefully,
You believed me.
I don't want you to
Know that I avoid
Your gaze because
I am
Afraid.
I'm afraid of
Having to stop and
Wait for you
And speak to
You. It may seem
Stupid, but that's
The truth. That's
What's keeping me
Away from you. I'm
So convinced
I'm going to mess up
That I don't even
Try.
I just pass you
By...

I Wonder
I wonder if you
Ever think about
Me. I wonder if
You remember what
You said we would be.
I wonder if you ever
Look back and remember
Every touch, every kiss,
And every word
As if it was whispered,
Only yesterday.
I wonder if it hurts
You. I wonder if,
When you see me,
You cannot breath
And you hate yourself
For still loving me.
I wonder if you've
Ever wondered if
I wonder about
These sorts of things.
I do.
You probably haven't
Even looked back on
These memories for
A moment. You moved...

I am so Sorry
I'm not
And I'm never going to be
Yours.
I don't have it in me.
I want to change,
But I can't.
I don't know
How to stop loving him
Like I do.
He hurt me,
And you were there
For me, but
I still want
To always be with him.
You are just
Way too good for me.
I will be the cause
Of your misery.
I know I will.
I've told you that.
I warned you
And you're still here.
Leave. There is
Nothing for you here
But pain. I don't want
To make you bleed
More than I...

A Shit-Load of Complaining
There are some days when
I can't take it anymore.
There are some days
When breathing isn't
Worth it to me. Today
Is just one of those
Many days I have to
Go through like that.
I don't even know why.
Nothing bad even happened
To me today that would
Make me feel as much
Pain and loneliness as I
Do at this moment.
Why here? Why now?
It doesn't make sense.
I've been avoiding all
Of my friends. I've been
Angry for no reason. I
Would blame it on
"Womanly" reasons but
That just isn't true....
I can't take it anymore.

Blinded by Perfect Eyes
His eyes are perfect,
Like diamonds to me.
He was always true to me,
No matter what.
I can't even breath around him.
He took my pain away from
The moment that I saw him.
Then, everything changed.
The moment that he left me
He left me so much pain that
I just can't breath. Not without him.
And no matter what,
You were never true to me.
Diamonds aren't as cold as he is.
I was blinded by his perfect eyes.
Like diamonds to me.
He was always true to me,
No matter what.

You Said That You Missed Me.
You said that
You missed me...
How can you
Miss me when
You don't even
Know me? You
Don't know the
Real me. The
One I'd never
Let you in to
See because
You would hurt
Me. So, no,
You don't really
Miss me. You
Miss the me I
Made you believe
Was me, when,
In truth, I am
Empty. I'm not
Me. I never was
Me. I don't know
Who I even am
Anymore. This
Heart never once
Belonged to you.
Never.
You can't miss me.
You just can't.
I want you to ...
You missed me...
How can you

Love Poem Gone All Wrong
I figured it out just
Yesterday that I'm never
Going to get over you no
Matter how hard I try to.
There's just no point.
Laughing and rushing
All around my basement
Trying to finds the right words
To say to you. God, you're
So funny. I love you. I
Know that I do and I
Promise you that I will
Never walk away.
I won't leave you; not
This way. Those words
You speak, so sweet like
Music to my ears.
No matter what, I just love you
And it's all I can bare
To not shout my love into the
Phone at you. I mean, you...

Going to get over you no

Those Last Words
Those last words are
Like nails in my coffin.
Those last words
Drag my body away to Hell.
You meant it as an apology.
You wanted those
Last words to make everything
All better. To make my
Pain go away. Well, it did
Not work. I still hurt.
I just wish that I could be
Everything you wanted me
To be. So you wouldn't have to
Say you're sorry. Those
Last words couldn't make up
For all the years I made
You stay when I knew your heart
Could never truly belong to
Me. You still apologized ...
Like nails in my coffin.
