Promise me forever
and nothing else matters
promise me a lifetime
and darling I'm yours
...

He touches my skin
I tremble
with each lengthening second
each deafening heartbeat
...

Her reflection scares her
Her disbelief impairs her
Her hurt consumes her
The spotlight pursues her
...

Who am I
and what have I become
where have you been
haven't you seen
...

When stars fall down
to crush my fragile heart
and the bright, shiny memories
create a sad, sad work of art
...

Sell them for food
send them off with a lie
attached at the side
'you're all i need'
...

My hands are cold
my face is hot
every sound chills my spine
my skin tingles at the slightest touch
...

Silently Crying,
muffled tears in a pillow
for days on end hiding,
dim lights and stale air
...

Holding back tears as I think of you
Holding in anger and hate for myself

Holding back laughter at some of the things we used to do
...

Too many days
too many ways
too many things i can't bring myself to say
...

Surrender.
All that I am -
All that I'll be.
you're going to break me anyway.
...

Should you forget me
I will still remember you
Love is forever
...

My face is sticky
and my nose is running
and im sick of feeling this way
especially considering it's never REALLY stopped
...

If I should choose
To model myself after the only girl.
The only girl I know to be perfectly beautiful
The only girl I've seen that has no flaws
...

I don't even know.
What I want.
Why I want it.
Where I want to be.
...

What he said was:
'I love you'

What I wanted to say was:
...

I could tell you about my face
it's a miracle, really
I'm fifteen and it's unmarred by acne
...

once again I find myself
in this sad state
a few minutes
an hour
...

she's alone
she's scared
maybe she's crazy
maybe she's ill
...

more or less
this is me

i'm generally lonely
...
