Save Yourself

I am a plague to those around me; I watch them as they flee. I am a mess of epic proportion. All I love, I push away. They can only stand so much, so it’s no surprise when they leave; I am a virus, to my own humanity. I am the titanic, slowly sinking you can’t help me, it may be….too late, the poison is in my veins. I am weak, lying to myself that I’m “strong.” I’m alone; I’m like a vortex, save yourself, run. I am in the dark only a mere cocoon of the person I used to be. I am nothing but a shadow, and soon like all ghosts I shall be forgotten.

Walking Around in Circles

Arguing about nothing, talking our way in circles, can’t help but wonder if you’re ever gunna catch on to my hints. Cuz I keep thinking, thinking how I might tell you, how I could.

Can’t help but wonder what I mean….cuz when you’re walking around in circles, talking as if tomorrow and today are magically intertwined then why bother with the rest? After all I wouldn’t really mind, if we skipped straight to the part where all the stars aligned, skipped straight to the part where we could just be alright.

Call me a romantic in fact, call me what you will but I’d rather be a hopeless romantic than just another girl swallowing another bitter pill.

The Kind of Girl I Am

I’m not the girl who’ll put out
I’m not the girl who’ll give in
I’m not the life-sized barbie doll, who’ll just let you have her & transform her as you wish
I’m not typical or “normal”
I’m not the girl who will only stay because she “loves” him
I’m not the girl who will cuss you out, no matter how much I might be tempted
I am the girl who will accept you for who you are
I’m the girl who will stay strong despite my challenges
I’m the girl who goes her own path, not the one he wants her to take
I’m the girl who walked away from the boy I loved, although that was something I never thought I could do
I’m the girl who has stood up to her father, who looked him in the eyes and didn’t hesitate
I’m the girl who is in charge of her life.
