and i can't promise the ghosts living in your past will stop haunting you
in your weakest times
i can't proffer you a new and improved life
with better understanding parents,
friends who won't backstab you
people who won't call you 'attention seeker'
when you're not around
a life where you'll never hear the words
'stupid, whore, bitch,' ever again
i can't tell you
that everything bad about your life will go away
because that would be a lie
but i can assure you that i will be there
fighting the fight with you
and i can strengthen you
give you a reason to stand up
i can help you win the race,
keep the faith
and i can be your biggest fan,
i can stand in the bleachers
cheering my heart out for you
telling you that you can do this
because i know you can
i can be your refuge
the place you go when you want to
scream to the heavens
or just be silent
and i can laugh with you
or cry with you
or just listen
i can make this hell
a little less hellish
i can be there
right with you
when you're ready to face the world
and i can walk out of this with you
hand and hand.
because we can
we can.

the hills
i'm not the person i say to be
the girl you think i am isn't me
yes, you see that i'm pensive and smart
but i feel stupid and foolish at heart
yes, you see eyes brimming with cheer
but that's just a mask, so you don't see tears
yes, you see short sleeves, 'don't fret, she's clean'
but why would i cut where you can see?
you think i have it all together, that's a lie
no one has yet noticed they're running out of time
i'm not the person i say to be
i guess when i'm fucked up, that's the real me.

monster
i remember when i was
always told that there were monsters under my bed
i would flip my room over
and analyze every nook and cranny
in futile attempt to find them
it wasn't until now
that i realized the monster is me
so if you ever ask if i believe in them
check my wrists, you'll see.

i love how
people buy into the lie
that i'm okay
i love how
i can force a laugh
or fake a smile
and no one will notice
i'm dead on the inside
i love how
i can make people believe
that I'm very social
when behind closed door
i'm a silent war with my demons
and I'm losing
i love how
i can pour life into someone
without them noticing
that through my eyes
all they'll ever see is death
i love how
people buy into the lie
that I'm okay
one day, I'm going to cut too deep
or I'll drink too much
one day I'll finally end it
and the last of me they'll ever see
is a happy face
i love how
people buy into the lie
that I'm okay
when
in reality
i'm far from it.

quotes
even the brightest of stars
will eventually die.
-
when i'm alone, i think
when i think, i remember
when i remember, i feel pain
when i feel pain, i cry
when i cry, i can't stop.
please don't leave me alone.

she saved everyone
but she couldn't save herself.

red
rivers gushing out of the
lines littering my thighs and arms
pooling onto the iced bathroom tiles
my favorite color.
