Yes or no,

Left or right,

I have to know my path.

Because college is coming,

And I’m stuck running,

All because of my past.

The future is calling,

But there was a time,

When I thought of hanging up.

Because life cut me at every turn,

Death by 1000 paper cuts.

But the phone still rings,

And I don’t know.

I didn’t have a plan for this far,

And school keeps raising the bar,

No matter how hard I c...

Fate.

Something I love to believe in,

but know isn't real.

because fate?

If fate existed I'd have found someone by now.

Dances are coming up,

my friends all dolled up for their boys,

while I sit on the sidelines.

I know I'm lovable,

and quite cute (if I do say so myself),

so then why does no one else see that?

Electric blue dress,

Dolled up,

but for me,

not for someone.

self love isn't quite...

Her eyes are the kind to flick over you, deciding whether or not you are worthy of her time. Cascading dirty blonde hair falls onto her back, though that is the least interesting thing about her. 

As she brushes her hair back behind her ears, the faintest trace of a tattoo is shown on her wrist. She glances my way, and her lips tug up into the barest of smiles, before she turns back to her work. 

...

They say I’m so strong,

But i shouldn’t have to be.

Yes, I can carry my weight and yours too if you’d like,

But why did I have to?

I’m so strong,

That’s true,

But I didn’t deserve that....

You.

Why you?

You did this?

But why dear friend?

Did you mean to send,

Those words to me that day?

Did you mean to stab my heart?

I’m sure you didn’t really truly mean it,

That it was all just a joke with me,

That I didn’t get right, yes that’s it, that’s it.

No, you couldn’t have mean those words that hurt me so badly.

It was all a mistake, yes that’s it, that’s the real truth.

Because you never ...

Words.

There’s a reason we all flock to writing fantasies,

Something quite different from our norms.

There’s the people who have been hurt,

And need something to release every pent up emotion,

Tears, and anger, they never got to let out.

The people who wish to escape,

Because this world is so much different from their own,

Yes, here, they have a home.

Those who wish to create,

Because my love?...

New year, New you

Same girl, same truths,

Same pain, same shame,

Same hurt, same work.

Old fears now true,

And I can’t seem to get over the fact,

That I lost you.

In the aftermath of speaking my mind,

Of finally letting my voice shine,

You were the cost.

It was you, that I lost.

New year, new you,

Same girl, new truths,

Old pain and old shame

New issues, used tissues,

Wiping away the tears,

Bec...

My day was boring,

But I love the mundane stuff.

Life is worth it guys....

Most of you will never know me.

I’m just a profile on an app.

Only if my book debuts will you know my true name.

Delphiniums are quite pretty,

In fact they are my favorite,

Which is why I adopted them as my pen name.

I’m a very anonymous person over here.

And yet,

You know my ups,

And my more common downs.

You will never know me most likely,

And I will never know you.

Yet…

I can only speak for...

I give up.

I give up.

I

Give

Up.

I’m done trying to please people,

Who want me to fail.

You think I ain’t pretty?

Well honey it’s subjective,

So have fun with your opinion,

But imma keep walking.

I am NEVER going to be able to please someone,

And I’d rather have a few haters,

Having stood for my cause,

Then keep on being the meek girl I once was.

I give up trying to make everyone happy.

You ...
