sally jean
darkness
sally jean are you there?
light
sally jean?
agonizing pain
secrets left uncovered
loving what can't be loved
people won't accept this
sally jean, a girl
me too a girl
they wont accept this
its a phase
i like boys too
how can it be both
why so indecisive
sally jean
the girl in the meadow
a crown of flowers surrounding her
fresh flowers like the ones she gave me
light-wash jeans ...

my little world
big and small
the world is i mean
my small world that is mine
and the world surrounding me
you're too loud
you talk too much
you are too much of an open book
you annoy me
she overshares
who would be her friend
god she irritates me
i'm sorry i just wanted my little world to be apart of yours.

generations
Dear other generations,
I grew up in a world of technology, that you created
And yet you blame my generation for using it
I grew up in the work world you created
With unachievable goals and low pay
I learn in the education system you revolutionized
Pulling at my hair, stressed beyond reason
You all raised us, wether your an older sibling, parent, grandparent, uncle, aunt, friend
Yet, you call us lazy as if we are to blame
You gave us the distractions of technology, you encouraged us
And now we are reprimanded and handed all these expectations...

the irony of self harm (trigger warning)
the irony of self harm
i don't want to do it
its just an urge, a feeling
the blade hurts
but the pain stops
the blood is a soft red liquid
it brings me comfort
for once, i'm the one hurting myself
i have the control over the pain
but I don't have control over the urge
it's ironic
i don't want to do it
its just an urge, a feeling
the blade hurts
but the pain stops
the blood is a soft red liquid
it brings me comfort
for once, i'm the one hurting myself
i have the control over the pain
but I don't have control over the urge
it's ironic

dream (is this a dream?)
is this a dream?
certainly feels like one
i'm scared
when will this end?
the constant pretend
i'm ok
i'm fine
i'm not hungry
so scared
estoy asustada
its endless
boundless
no mercy
no sympathy
someone pinch me

when i first saw you
no one sees what i see
no one sees me
i see you, you don't see me
i've mastered the art of invisibility
i want to become what i want to be
the first time i saw you it was half past three
i saw you reading a book under the oak tree
the next time i saw you was by the sea
you were sitting there, sad, with your left hand on your knee
lastly i saw you in the field, coexisting with a bee
but then you looked my way, and i had to flee
every time i think of you i'm filled with glee
nonetheless, i can't hold onto you, i must set you free ...

pretty girl
pretty girl
soft eyes
warm smile
light hair
blushed cheeks
tan skin
plump lips
underneath
the mask
dark eye bags
teeth whitener
bleach and money
hair falling out
painful headaches
rumbling stomach
needles in lips
tanning everyday
makeup to cover
her insecurities
inside
her very core
aching bones
hurt heart
body craving food
brain confused
legs aching
self hatred
but her smile
hides it all

love (a damaged view)
love,
it reminds me of
the pain in your chest--
when sadness hits you
the feeling of ecstacy
you get from a simple smile
the Jealous pang you feel all over
when your partner betrays you
the co-partnership
that makes every idea better
the entertainment you receive
when your bored the most
the desperation you feel
when your significant other is mad
the warm embraces
that make your body radiate positivity
the secrets you disclose
with only that one trusted individual
the connection you feel
as...

3am
the clock--- it says 3am
up late once again tired sleepy eyes
mothers wishes fathers words
criticism and praise mixed and coexisting
there's music soft but percing
book open distracting but exhausting
stomach hurts hunger is constant
no eating need to be thin
need to fit in hair falling...
