i thought that joining the army would help me figure out things and love myself
but in reality i am so much more alone lost and confused

i ignore reality because the world is to much of an evil sin-filled dark place

i dont want a bf because i'm scared of commitment, scared to loose, scared of choices, and scared that it will rip me apart. i have seen what it did to my family, i dont want that. i have experianced love, and it hurt. maybe i will become a nun....

I think I'm in love with my best friend. I think I have been for years.
You can have peace or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.
There's a drive in me that won't allow me to do certain things that are easy.
This was freedom. Losing all hope was freedom.
I just don't want to die without a few scars.
One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't utter.
War does not determine who is right, only who is left.
You've got to burn me. Make me bleed. Turn my pain into fantasy. And if I scream it's only just, love can hurt much more than lust.

I thought last night was a one off but i feel just as shitty today. I try to be positive but deep down I'm still that self conscious kid who feels like she'll never be good enough.

I used to invent characters in my head and 'become' them. And truly believe I was them. Until I was sixteen.
And I miss those days. Things felt easier.

I've just realised I'm a terrible mother.

I need you, Matt. You were my world. It wasn't about love - not the romantic kind. I wasn't - I'm NOT - in love with you. But I need you. You were the only person, the only person in my entire life to make me feel like I was okay, like I wasn't bad, like there isn't something intrinsically WRONG with me. But I scared you away, and now I know I am. There is something wrong with me. I could have shared you with her; I didn't want from you what your girlfriend had. I just wanted your friendship. Losing you is what drove me to self-harm, to needing theropy, to three suicide attempts. That feeling of connection - losing it was like someone took away my air. Its been two years since we were really friends. I'd still give up everything in my life for you. I'd die for one more day with you as my best friend. I love you Matt. I love you and I need you and I don't think I can do this without you. But I have to because I screwed it up and you're not coming back.

Phew, I feel better now.

Anyone who knows me, knows I'm incredibly perceptive.
I notice things about people, thing everyone else is blind too.
I know when people aren't okay. I see all the little tricks they have to mask their insecurities and pain.

I see this stuff, becuase I live it.
And I'm desperate for someone to look at me, and see what I see when I look at everyone else.
I want somebody to notice that I'm not okay.
The Patch Stop Bad Poetry


If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could've won.
It does not do to dwell on dreams, and forget to live.
Must I be content with discontent...I cannot bite the day to the core.
To die would be an awfully big adventure
And how can I stand here with you, and not be moved by you? Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Darkness can only be scattered by light, hatred can only be conquered by love.
Awareness is the enemy of sanity, for once you hear the screaming, it never stops.
Writers aren't exactly people...they're a whole bunch of people trying to be one person.

I can't do life alone. I don't know what to fucking do anymore, I feel like I'm losing myself again. I hate this. I just want to have a life, I want to have people who love me.
