Just because I scream bloody murder
In the middle of the night
Doesn't mean I have issues.
JUst becasue I have a teddy bear
That likes to pick fights
Doesn't mean I have issues.
Just because I hug my knees
And repeat the phrase "Find a happy place"
Doesn't mean I have issues.
Just beacuse I enjoy blinding myself
With my own bottle of Mase
Doesn't mean I have issues.
Maybe you should look in the mirror
And tell me what you see.
I bet you have lots and lots of issues
Just like me.
So don't hate me and my issues.
We haven't bothered you yet.
But you're starting to get on our nerves
So remember, "What you give, you get." (couMORONgh)

Depression

Lay down your right to be human. Put on a dazzling smile so that no one can see your pain. You hide it all so well, but underneath your shirt you can still feel the scars. No one knows what it is like to be you. Your smile is but one in a billion, A mask that you wear to ward off the questions. Your scars are your war paint, But this is a losing battle. You are sent to face the demons all alone, though they will never leave your side. So keep that pretty smile steady, And don't let one tear drop from those stormy eyes. Put on your war paint and go out into the world, where your smile makes you just like them.

Thoughts run through your mind 'I'm a failure, I'm worthless' Feel like you're being left beind Invisible to everyone Your world is just so bleak You believe words they say 'You're pathetic, unwanted' You must be that way Got no one to turn to Your 'friends' have all gone They didn't have a clue Couldn't understand You slit your wrists, want to die Through your veins runs despair Ashamed, it's all your fault To you life isn't fair Sat in a corner, tears in your eyes There's no hep, you're on your own Force a smile so they don't realise You just can't cope anymore That's not true, there's someone there To help you out, hel

ALONE

No one can see the pain that we hide, They're happy for us to keep it inside, Our fear is our own; they don't want to know, Why sould we involve them; why should it show. You live your whole life in confusion and fear, The need to feel something unbearably near, Half of you living, Half of you gone, And inside you know what your doing is wrong. The thing's that can help, the thing's that may heal, Are the flame or the blade and the sting of the steel, The destruction of skin means the death of your soul, But there's nowhere to run when your living alone.

Self love is Bullshit until it isn't

In Berkeley, California, the rain is a downpour. You shove your pajama pants into your boots to run outside at midnight and this time only you bring an umbrella and this time only you smoke a cigarette (the bell of the umbrella: a dingy coronet) and this time you don’t want it to kill you. The rain is driven like the city is making up for all its months of dryness like it’s gotta get it all in right now, tonight and so you’re standing in a river that’s running down your driveway to join all the other rivers and your feet are getting so wet but you can’t feel it yet and in the cracked pavement of your shitty

Happy It Away

Happy it away, it's simple, Happy it away; These speckles of mascara Look like stars upon my face, The droplets on my shirt Are like the kisses of spring rain; It only takes a smile To just happy it away. Happy it away, it's simple, Happy it away The beating in my skull Is like a summer ice cream pain, The catching in my throat Is like a tangled swing set chain; I merely fix my attitude To happy it away. Just happy it away, it's torture, Happy it away; There are no hands around my neck (They're just around my brain) I'll let the tide sweep over me, It will recede again; I'll keep my chin and spirits up And happy it away.

My darling.

Close your eyes. It's not to late for you to run. Take a breathe my darling. Drop down to your knees, feel the world stand still. It's not to late for you to hide. Let the tears wash your tired eyes. It's not to late to scream. Curl up in the corner, stop that demanding voice. My darling it's not to late. Remove that gun from your head. Leave your brillance inside. Remove the blade from your perfect skin. Leave the blood inside. My darling live. Be the person you are ment to be. Why crave acceptance in a world filled with misfits? Oh my darling heavens not ready to take another fallen angel. Open your eyes, Breathe another breat

Little Girl.

You think you can escape me? You think I don't have you by the throat? Well, little girl i'd like to tell you I have the strongest grip. Oh, little girl, you think you cn run. You think you can hide but i have the quickest feet and the sharpest eyes. Oh, little girl there is no esacape. Yes, your going to scream. Why? Well little girl, I'm gonna take this blade and sharply, yet slowly push it into your rib cage. Make you feel the burn. Make you feel the darkness. Oh, little girl your going to hurt. Yes, your going to feel every inch of your body burn. Your mine. I own you. Your nothing without me and my voice inside your head. Scr

Differences between a boy and a man:

Boys play house. Men build homes. Boys shack up. Men get married. Boys make babies. Men raise children. A boy won't raise his own child. A man will raise his and someone else's. Boys invent excuses for failure. Men produce strategies for success. Boys look for somebody to take care of them. Men look for someone to take care of. Boys seek popularity. Men earn respect by knowing how to give it. Boys quit and walk away when things get hard. Men will promise to love you through it all. Be the best man, best husband, and best father.

Courage

When you are lost, Look deep within yourself, To find the courage to smile on your darkest days, To laugh in the face of your loneliness, To look at yourself in the mirror past your insecurities, To have faith that you are worth it, To be brave enough to lift your head, To see hope in the stars. To find the strength to take the next step forward, Even if the future is unknown. Like a book you have the power to write your story. Some chapters might be hard to get through. They might drag you through the dirt. But some will also show you light of the sun, And the love in your heart. Life is precious. With the good times, and the bad. They ma

This is to all those people who keep telling me that I'm crazy, and that I have "issues." It's kinda funny to me, maybe someone else will think it's funny, too.
