Are You Happy?

My day was wonderful! I got an A on all three tests! Are you happy? My day was great! I have a solo in choir! Are you happy? My day was good! I exceeded the PSAT! Are you happy? My day was fine. I cleaned the house. Are you happy? My day was okay. It's been a long day of assignments. Are you happy? My day was normal.

I think I should get a rubber band on my wrist too To stop me from thinking of you Cause after all this time I'm still writing poems about you Still saying I'm in love with you I still have your number on my phone by the way I tried calling the other day THE NUMBER YOU HAVE DIALED DOES NOT EXIST Which had me thinking for a little bit Maybe the love I seek does not exist And I guess maybe that's alright Maybe it's about time I gave up the fight I'm way too battered and bruised I missed the opportunity to hold you close Now I'm stuck here missing you And I guess all of this seems like it's coming out the blue And maybe that's true

The number you have dialed does not exist I sit calmly as my soul continues to violently scream for you I've tried running to you but pride holds me hostage My fears and insecurities keep in a bondage Right next to all the words I should've said Never have I know a love like this Correction Never will I know a love like this A love that waited patiently for me to grow up A love that lifted me up and showed me the ropes Because whenever I had your hand to hold I was shinning baby girl I was gold I used to think the sunset was beautiful Back when I was with you still But now every time I set my eyes on it I can feel the pain coming over me

I have this dream that one day I'll bump into you in the mall You'd be wearing that black dress I like and the matching heels And you'll look so beautiful I'll immediately get into my feels But like I've been doing for what feels like an eternity now I'll hold back my tears because you are walking with him Laughing harder than you ever did with me He probably loves you better than I ever could Brings you chocolate everyday Kisses you on the neck way better than me I'm sure he listens to you I'm sure he's twice the man I ever could be Maybe you think of me Or maybe for a second you see me too And you instantly turn blue Now would be a good chance to ask me why Why I never seemed to try

I see him holding the piece of my heart I've been missing He's taken a part of myself I can't get back I still need you and darling you know that So I'll hold back my tears again And pretend that it's different I'll ignore all the bitterness Of the sweet nothings you used to whisper in my ear Those constellations I used to gaze upon Are now sadly gone They sparkle for someone else now You promised me you'd stay But now you are miles away You even dress differently And I think that's the part that's killing me If you could change for him so easily and move on so fast I wonder if you were fake with me Was I just your release

Solitude

My days are grim My nights are blue, My memory tainted green, My vision has lost its hue But a bite into this orange The juice sipping through, The taste I can't manage A mirage is what is true. Too much, turns bitter Just like my mood When I see a cover of glitter My feelings become nude But in all that comes, I am the only witness.

Why oh why?

Hide that pain, Wash away that stain Throw it all in a pail Don't let them see you frail. All this hurt Going on in my heart Rooted in me like a hut On the ground strongly made of dirt. They don't know me They don't care about me They don't see what's in me They don't appreciate me. Why such a life? Why strike me a knife? Why make me a wife? A betrothed wife to suffering.

My aura, darkness.

The sun shines bright but all I see is darkness. Darkness in the light, darkness in the clouds, darkness in the earth beneath my feet, darkness in the air i supposedly breathe. Is it me? Or is it my fate.. or is that my destiny... or are they all one and the same? The road is clear of traffic, I am free to tread on it but before i can take a step, I look down to my feet and i see darkness. Darkness in the road i am to trek on. The clothes i parade in are dark,

Refreshing...

As he bit into my heart he looked into my eyes, He had a nasty grin, Like he was missing something inside... He wiped his mouth and closed his eyes "Ah that was refreshing" He said while I just laid there and cried...

TEARS. an encoure

There once was a girl, She cried all the time, She cried all night, Falling asleep with tears in her eyes, She'd cry all morning once she got up, She cried so much her tear ducts dried up... Although they were dry somehow she still seemed to cry Because... She was nothing but broken inside.
SadNikky

Broken everything...

There was a boy I fell madly in love with... He told me he would fix me, But instead all he did was break me.. He broke my already shattered pieces, Smaller And smaller And smaller... Till they were almost unfixable...

Desperate

I feel so desperate and lost. It's like this place is just a cardboard box. I feel weak and ill. Please just give me some sort of pill. I crave a release from this world This body This mind. I am desperate.
