Breaking Down
Sometimes I feel overwhelmed
to the point where I want to die
the tears won't stop
and I can barely breathe
I can't get the voices to shut up
and I can't find a single happy thought
I try to think of someone to call
but something always stops me
I don't want to be a burden
and force my unhappiness onto others
no one would truly understand anyway
its hard for me to find the right words
I feel so alone and broken
I just don't know what to do anymore
all the anxiety and worry just builds up
then tears me...

I don't want to be a burden

Untitled 8/14/19
I wish I could express that very moment
The feeling inside of being ripped apart by an unseen force
Having my life come to a screeching hult
I am scared
And I don't have anyone here to help
Yes I could text or call someone
But its not the same
I need sombody
Anybody physically here with me
The feeling inside of being ripped apart by an unseen force
Having my life come to a screeching hult
I am scared
And I don't have anyone here to help
Yes I could text or call someone
But its not the same
I need sombody
Anybody physically here with me

I wish I could tell you
Just how much you've hurt me
I wish you could see
The tears I cry every night
Sure, losing a boyfriend was hard
But losing my best friend was worse
Everything reminds me of you
And I'm forced to remember our good times
Knowing I will never make any more
I don't understand what happened
You left the same time my ex did
Sometimes I think you two planned it
But I know I'm being irrational
You guys wouldn't be that cruel
I trusted you so much
Then you had to go and shut me out
I wish you...
Just how much you've hurt me
I wish you could see
The tears I cry every night
Sure, losing a boyfriend was hard
But losing my best friend was worse
Everything reminds me of you
And I'm forced to remember our good times
Knowing I will never make any more
I don't understand what happened
You left the same time my ex did
Sometimes I think you two planned it
But I know I'm being irrational
You guys wouldn't be that cruel
I trusted you so much
Then you had to go and shut me out
I wish you...

What Happens In My Mind
I figure myself out
Through rhymes and verse
Often times feeling
Like it's a big curse
Expressing myself so plainly
With perfect sense to me
Realizing after that no one
Can see exactly what I see
So here I go again
Trying to write my mind
Hoping you will understand
The ideas I'm trying to find
This one is different
Because I'm writing about writing
And trying to rhyme
Without the words fighting
Let's end this already
Before I lose my train of thought
Who knows if you'll...
Through rhymes and verse
Often times feeling
Like it's a big curse

Hoping you will understand

Changed
I look at my reflection
And wonder at how I've changed
I use to be
Shy and introverted
Now I'm
Afraid to be alone
I use to be
Full of passion and adventure
Now I'm just
A broken record on repeat
I use to be
A hopeless romantic
Now I've
Felt the pain of heartbreak
I use to think everyone was good
And the world was great
And nothing could tear my family apart
And I'd always have my best friend
And people cared
And I was loved
And
I'd always
Make it...
And wonder at how I've changed
I use to be
Shy and introverted
Now I'm
Afraid to be alone
I use to be
Full of passion and adventure
Now I'm just
A broken record on repeat
I use to be
A hopeless romantic
Now I've
Felt the pain of heartbreak
I use to think everyone was good
And the world was great
And nothing could tear my family apart
And I'd always have my best friend
And people cared
And I was loved
And
I'd always
Make it...

I'm finally starting a conversation
Despite the voices in my head
I wait
And wait
Till you finally respond
With a half assed sentence
Are you busy?
Am I interrupting?
Do you not want to talk?
Do you not want to talk to me?
I continue
A little deflated
You respond ten minutes later
Another short answer
Am I bugging you?
Should I text back?
Am I reading too much into this?
I say we should hang out...

Enjoying Today
Smiling as I look around
Kayaking on a lake
Water dripping down the paddle
Finding a good spot
Putting the worm on the hook
Casting the line
Waiting
And
Waiting
A swift tug and reeling in
Seeing the fish
A Pumpkinseed
Holding onto its slimy scales
Taking the hook out
Watching it swim away
Hours of kayaking and fishing
Pure happiness
Driving
Finding a Berry Farm
Getting excited
Greeted by a warm smile and point in the right direction
Filling up a bucket of blueberries
Eating a few...
Kayaking on a lake
Water dripping down the paddle
Finding a good spot
Putting the worm on the hook
Casting the line
Waiting
And

Holding onto its slimy scales
Taking the hook out
Watching it swim away

Pure happiness

Untitled 7/19/19
Internet full of what everyone should be
World shouting words of hate
People shaming others to boost ego
Social media full of bragging
And perfectly shot photos
But right now
I'm not letting it get to me
I feel amazing and look amazing
Some would call it egotistical
I call it long awaited confidence
World shouting words of hate
People shaming others to boost ego
Social media full of bragging
And perfectly shot photos
But right now
I'm not letting it get to me
I feel amazing and look amazing
Some would call it egotistical
I call it long awaited confidence

Music and Cookies
The beat flows through me
as I dance around the kitchen
singing at the top of my lungs
Using the spatula as a mic
not staying still for a moment
and testing the cookie dough with a smile
Putting the cookies in the oven
turning up Elton Johns Crocodile Rock
And flailing my limbs like crazy
Starting to smell the banana and chocolate
knowing these cookies are going to taste delicious
finally taking them out and trying my creation
This moment is perfect
in my own little world
not worrying about anything...

Shattered Love
I wish you could understand
How much you hurt me
I trusted and loved you
And one day you just reject me
And broke me into a thousand pieces
I don't know what happened
Or where it all went wrong
I hate how much I still think of you
But that can't be helped
It's not easy to throw away all that time
I selfishly hope you're have the same troubles as me
But logically I know you are not
You were always the type to give up
It was only a matter of time
Till you gave up
On me
How much you hurt me
I trusted and loved you
And one day you just reject me
And broke me into a thousand pieces
I don't know what happened
Or where it all went wrong
I hate how much I still think of you
But that can't be helped
It's not easy to throw away all that time
I selfishly hope you're have the same troubles as me
But logically I know you are not
You were always the type to give up
It was only a matter of time
Till you gave up
On me

Simple Happy Thought Of You
Meeting someone
I truly connect with
Is an amazing feeling
He makes me forget
All my worries
For a little while
Sometimes I let my brain
Think more
Than it should
But with you
I'm more calm
And in control
For right now
I'll just live in the moment
And enjoy your company
Forgetting about stress
And people
And the world
I truly connect with
Is an amazing feeling
He makes me forget
All my worries
For a little while
Sometimes I let my brain
Think more
Than it should
But with you
I'm more calm
And in control
For right now
I'll just live in the moment
And enjoy your company
Forgetting about stress
And people
And the world

6 Years Ago
6 years ago
I was in 6th grade
If I were to define that year
It would be
The year I killed myself
Metaphorically speaking
Both my best friends ditched me
And I could barely speak to anyone else
That was the year
I told myself to suck it up
Shit happens
I realized that life wasnt going to go easy on me
That was the year that I was forced to be in a drama production
Turns out, I love theater
I broke out of my shell
That was the year
That prepared me
For the following years
Of shit
I was in 6th grade
If I were to define that year
It would be
The year I killed myself
Metaphorically speaking
Both my best friends ditched me
And I could barely speak to anyone else
That was the year

Shit happens
I realized that life wasnt going to go easy on me
That was the year that I was forced to be in a drama production
Turns out, I love theater
I broke out of my shell
That was the year
