Lost

My hollow, empty eyes scream more to the world than my voice ever can. My only goal in life was only ever to survive the day; on tougher days, I willed myself to survive hours, minutes, and moments. I have been unjustly dealt one of the toughest hands in life. I have lived a loveless life- and no knight can save me. I have been battered by wind and rain and my father's fists. And those famous last words- at least it can't get any worse? The phrase has passed my lips one time too many, uttered out of the shred of hope that had remained. Now look into my lost eyes and see my demons. I have given up fighting for my worthless self. I have lost hope. Life has not been fair to me, why should I play by the rules of her game? I should just let myself fly with a more permanent destination- to my game over in this rigged, worthless scheme.

Understanding

The funny thing

about finding someone

who understands

is you realize 

how little everyone else

understands 

you.

but i’m afraid

i wanna scream

i love you

from the top of my lungs

but i'm afraid that 

someone else will hear me

they will laugh at 

all i am and wish for

and my attempts at love

they will kick me

when i am down

and scoff in my face

I wanna scream

I love you 

from the top of my lungs

but i'm afraid

I wanna scream

I love you

from the top of my lungs

but i'm afraid

of what you will scream back.
