The pain of yesterday is vivid in our minds,
The words that were said,
The blood that was shed,
The scars burned into our hearts.
We held that blade so tightly,
Our hands shaking under the weight,
Of an impossible decision.
Sometimes the pain is just too much,
Sometimes you have to let go,
Let go of this world,
Let go of yourself,
As you fly away,
We won’t blame you.
Your memory will stay with us,
We will remember you for your smile,
For your beautiful laugh,
For the way your voice sounded,
You will not be forgotten.
Sometimes our hands shake too much,
And the blade falls to the ground,
But I am not a survivor.
Sometimes we choos
Dear Mother,
I’m doing well,
How are you?
I know we live miles apart,
And I haven’t said I love you in a while,
But please don’t forget that you’re in my heart,
We don’t talk as often as we should,
Maybe that’s because I’m all grown up,
But I’m still your baby girl,
You cried the first day you met me,
And I’m sure I did to,
You cried when I left the house,
And cried when I was handed my diploma,
I’m sure you’ll cry when I finally get married to.
You held my hand when times were tough,
Gave me your shoulder when I needed to cry,
I may not be near,
But I’m not far.

I'm afraid,
So very afraid.
I take a deep breath,
but the thoughts are still there.
I'm afraid of you,
of me,
of us.
I'm afraid to be alive.
I'm afraid to live.
I'm afraid to be happy,
To be sad,
To cry,
To scream.
But.
I want to breath,
I want to love you,
I want to be myself.
I want to be happy,
To be sad,
To cry,
To scream.
I want to be alive.
To feel the air fill my lounges.
The fear wont go away.
But I'll be alive.
There is a demon inside of me,
She pretends to be me,
And takes over this mind of mine,
I wake up in the morning,
And I can feel her weight on my shoulders,
Stay asleep, she whispers in my ear,
I push myself to get up,
I choke down breakfast,
I manage to get to work,
I tell myself to remember to smile,
Don’t let anyone see what’s inside of you,
Everything is fine.
Why do I feel so happy?
And then I just want to cry?
I’m scared,
Kill yourself, she whispers in my ear,
It’s so easy, just give up,
No one cares about you,
But I know that’s not true,
I have friends and family that care,
That are here for m
I’ve built my world around this cage,
Keeping others out,
The sun seemed so far away,
But I was okay with that,
I remember when I lived outside,
Where all of your words were lies,
I clung so tightly to them,
Molding myself around your ideals,
I was what they wanted,
Smiled and fit in,
Be that perfect girl,
Never complain that life is too hard,
Then I realized that this life I lived,
Had all been just a lie,
And with the broken pieces of my heart,
I built this cage,
I watched through the cracks,
This was the perfect shield,
No one could hurt me,
As long as I stayed in here,
Then you came along and shattered my cage,
You reached yo
I’ve been thinking of ways to tell you,
Tell you just how much I love you,
But my mind goes blank.
How do I tell you,
Just how amazingly perfect you are?
How do I tell you,
That I couldn’t live without you?
I look at you and see that smile,
You say something silly,
And I laugh at you,
This is what it means to be happy.
We lay down at night,
And I can feel your warmth,
These nights are cold,
But I’d never know,
You whisper you love me,
And the words make me want to cry,
What would I do without you?
I wake up to your eyes looking at me,
My face flushes,
You pull me in for a kiss,
“Good morning beautiful.”

When we met, I was broken.
I was falling apart at the seams.
Suicide was such a real thing for me.
I’d already attempted once.
But even knowing that,
Knowing I wasn’t whole,
You still loved me.
I was afraid at first,
That you would hurt me like everyone else.
But you didn’t,
You loved me.
You put up with my mood swings,
Dealt with my emotionally unstable self,
You stayed with me.
The way you smiled at me,
Saved me from my self,
Your laugh sparked a light,
Deep inside my broken heart.
You held me on those long nights,
And we both cried.
You were just as broken as I was.
We pulled each other together,
Tied ourselves toge

How many times am I going to play this part?
How many times are you going to take this heart?
I know my lines well,
Can you even tell?
I was drawn in by that smile,
I should have known you’d make me walk a mile,
Now I’m hurt and broken,
And you’ve taken my heart as a token,
Words of I love you,
But you wouldn’t see this through,
I was just a time waster,
And you were a faker.
I can see behind the lies,
But you’re too wise,
You keep me tied down,
Why do you even want me around?
Your love is suffocating,
I can tell you’re dying,
Maybe that’s why I let you hold on,
So when you wake I won’t
I’m fine,
These things are not really here,
I don’t really hear voices,
What was that shadow?
Turn out the lights,
Hide under the covers,
And pray sleep takes me,
You smile in the darkness,
Faces only I can see,
Voices only I can hear,
I’m terribly afraid of you,
Turn on the lights,
Check under the bed,
Open the closet,
I’m fine,
Those faces are not there,
Those voices are my imagination,
But why am I so afraid?
Turn out the lights,
My chest tightens,
I can’t breathe,
Then you’re hand covers mine,
Your warm envelopes me,
And the monster disappear,
The voices stop,
And sleep takes me.
