Beautiful

And they say

"For someone so broken,

She sure is beautiful"

While she's thinking

'Why does everyone keep,

calling me broken?'

Because she doesn't see the scars

That crawl up her arms

As being broken.

She see's them as a promise

That she made to herself

Never to be broken again

And no matter how many times

She says this to people

They still say

"For someone so broken,

She sure is beautiful"

Good enough

Tell me where I can lay my head for the night

I don't know where I am welcome anymore

Every step I take is the wrong one

And every word I say is wrong as well

I can't so much as blink, wink, or smile

Without someone telling me not to breath to loudly

Accusing me of being someone that I'm not

Calling me down in front of my "friends"

As they all stand around and laugh

Tell me where I can lay my head for the night

I just need to rest my eyes for a while

Although I don't feel welcome here

And I hear plots for my murder Whispered in the dark

Im told I'm not good enough

That I try to hard

Laughed at for my imperfections

Ostrisized for being different

Being told I am to main stream

Tell me where to place my head for the night

Outline it in careful instructions

Explain it carefully

I don't want to upset you

I just want to be good enough for you

I would bend over backwards for you

But I would probably even do that wrong

You would call me a show off

And send me away

Tell me where I can lay my head for the night

Because I just wanted to be good enough for you.

Together

Together

We can work through this

Together

We can get past this

Together

We can...

What is 'this'?

I don't know

Do you??

Or is this just a game

Is it your game

Mine

Or does it belong to someone else

I don't know

Do you.?

And are we really together in this?

My best friend...

Forever is a word

Forever is a word

A word is just letters

Letters put together make sounds

Sounds make us listen

Listen for the words

The words made of letters

Letters making sounds

Sounds making us listen

Listen to the words

Forever is a word

A word that could be a sentence

A sentence that could mean everything

Everything and nothing

Nothing is just a word

A word that creates its own sentence

A sentence that could mean everything

Everything, but still nothing

Forever is a word

Ending

Walls falling

Eyes closing

Energy fading

Love dying

People are lost

Tears are falling

Dreams are dying

We are separating

I’m falling

Failing

Fading

Dying

Life is ending

I’m not blending

Forever is ending

I’m not mending

To soon

To soon

I spoke well of you

Brought you up to our level

Told people tales, lies

When I thought they were truth

To soon

I turned you into a saint

I made you into someone like me

Someone who would understand

The people who surround you

To soon

My world felt all to perfect

Like someone had painted over all the bad

Took the evil and erased it from our minds

And actually made me believe in you again

To soon

I let my guard down

And thought maybe you would love me again

Thought maybe I could smile again

But with a look you brought me back down again.

To soon

I said I love you

I saw you change before my eyes

You turned into a monster

You spat words like fire my way.

And just like that

My too soon turned into your too late

And I moved on

And left you with your words

Because that’s all they were, words.

Mine

You aren't as broken

As they want you to be

You aren't ugly

But they say you are

You aren't alone

But they would like you to be

You aren't evil

But they say you are

You aren't mine

But I want you to be
