-sometimes I wear t-shirts hoping my friends will finally ask what the scars are and why I did it

-I promised myself I wouldn't drink energy drinks anymore but i did a couple months later.

-Sometimes Im ashamed of my dad because he acts so childishly. I dont look up to him.

-If I never saw the majority of my friends again, I wouldnt really miss them at all.

*(some sex I guess)

-Sometimes Im glad she misscarried. Other times Im really sad.

I think it finally hit me tonight. The way I should have been feeling all along I mean. Seeing them just killed me because I don't want them to hurt like I did but I know that because of us they could. She could too. I am sorry. Are you?
You told me not to think of you as the perfect example. See thats the thing, I used to. I used to admire you so much for everything you were and everything you did but now I don't know. Everythings different and I don't think I really admire you at all like I used to. I wish I had someone to admire like that. We let me down. It wasn't your fault, it was ours.
M.S., I just wanted to tell you, I am so sorry for all I've done that hurt you or could hurt you. I'm especially sorry to S.S. and M.S.

The worst part, even after this I'm not sure if I'm going to stop.
I'm afraid you'll stop talking to me if you do and I do not want that. I want you in my life one way or another and if this is what it takes, even if its wrong, I will do it. Or at least will give it some more serious consideration.
We'll talk tomorrow.

My mother got married over winter break

and didn't tell me until last week. In therapy.



For some reason--

I feel emotionless towards her. No matter how hard I try
I cannot conjure anything.
love
happiness
hate
sadness
bitterness


mostly it's just indifference

with a little teen angst mixed in for good measure.
lately i've been feeling
like i don't belong
like the ground's not mine to walk upon

I think it's my fault because I think they finally figured out that I used to be in love with them....i think that's why they chose to run away right now. I think its that and the fact that they are scared of hurting me by being here because I'm a lot like them and they don't understand it. They don't understand that my feelings for them died long long ago....they don't understand that they've done nothing but help me and that how I feel/have been feeling has very little to do with them or their past. They don't understand that by running away like this they are hurting me more than just telling me to stop or go away ever would. They don't understand that by doing it this way they leave me with no choice but to cut them out my life forever because it's the only way I can deal with being treated like this again. They don't understand that I've lost all respect for them now, because they didnt even have the guts to tell me I was being a problem.

I am starting to hate them now, because it's the only way I can deal with how much this hurts without hurting myself and hurting the other things I have in my life. I know that pretty soon all I'll ever feel for them is hate because they broke my one golden rule and refused to be honest with me.

and still, I hate myself for hating them because i know its my fault.

i feel bad for being mad at them...but they hurt me, whether it was intentional or not....and the fact that its them makes it hurt even more....so i can't not be mad at them (even if part of me wonders if i overreacted)

i'm starting to get scared and tired and frustrated with myself again....and no one can see that, and i don't want to say anything. because i'm meant to be getting better.

i'm a bad poet, but people are telling me to enter the competition. but what if they're just trying to make me feel better and i make a fool of myself.

i'm sick of being physically ill and in pain.
