Don't tell me I'm beautiful
It makes me hurt worse
I despise your kind words-
Sorry to be terse
When you tell me I'm worth it
I just want to collapse
Because I can't listen
Because this is one of your traps
Because I know it's lies
Because when I say "thank you"
I want to break down and cry
And when you say you care
I wish I could believe you
I don't, but I'll smile
And sniffle out a "love you."

The shower my bed. The bathroom stall and my head. These are the places my tears have been shed. Into my pillow and out in the street. Inside my nightmares and inside my dreams.

I want to cry, I need to cry But tears, they just won't fall. My body is racked with despair My tear ducts blind to it all.

Stress
I need to find a place. Where my head can rest. I need to find a place. Where I can be my best. My brain is not my own no more. Clouded with too much stress. I just really want to know the score.

Unfinished
Depression known but never shown, Concealed from the face of truth, Cloaked in lies and severed ties, Obscured by the guise of youth.

Never Whole
Somedays it takes all my strength just to feel alive,. If I was pulled any thinner, I don't think I'd survive,. I am just the empty hollow in between your dreams,.

Pain
Battered and broken. Someone outspoken. Light turned dark. Forever the mark. So much pain I'm gone. Tears now all done. Living in the pain. The tears the rain. Everything flew away.

@plasticcourage Thank you, Bai❤ you're sweet. It wasn't directed at you-Deven is just making things difficult without even knowing it..😞
@newernew this is very beautiful! Be strong. Just remember that no one can have the power to break you. Stay strong and keep smiling! Everything will turn out fine :-)
@waleedyazdani Thank you so much! I can't tell you how much that means. You're very kind; thank you for the pick me up❤
@newernew you're most welcome :-) don't ever forget that around every corner there's a rainbow. Granted that everybody needs love to survive but this isn't the love which you give to some else cuts the love you give to yourself that makes you alive. You've got your whole life ahead of you with girl. Live it with your head held high and eventually life will have to look up to you rather than looking down upon you :-) <3
