my hair doesn't stay in perfect place,
my face isn't the prettiest around,
my body is covered in bruises,
i'm not where near perfect,
but i'm not afraid to dance in the rain,
i'm brave ehough to play your game,
i'm going to make you hear my voice,
just to drive you insane,
i have the guts not to give a **** what people think of me,
i don't look for your acceptance,
i am my own perfection,
because baby i
'm the strange craving you get in the middle of the night,
the one that won't go away with out putting up a fight....

It was my time to shine,
Beat my wings and fly,
But you dragged me too deep,
Into water as black as my soul,
And now I'm drowning in my own tears,
Completely surrounded by my fears,
My wings are drenched and they are now too weak to fly,
You've ruined this birds moment to shine.

Each day I'm followed by doctors, meds and fears,
My anxiety rising up to high,
For me to think about the next few years,
The only time I'll have some peace,
Is when I'm buried six feet under,
When I can eternally sleep.

When the memories die,
And slowly fade away,
I'll finally be OK.

Today we started over,
And it became easier for me to breathe,
It felt like i found a seven leaved clover,
I feel completely reprieved.

Now i can work at fixing things,
Instead of driving myself insane,
Thinking we'd never be the same,
And now that we are starting again,
I hope i can take back everything i said,
Let's act like i never liked you.

We were always perfect strangers,
And now we want to try and be friends.

Let's believe,
I didn't like you in that way,
I never said I love you,
You were never the one thing always on my mind,
And you have never made me cry,
Or ask myself why,
I've never lost myself in your eyes,
My heart never held a flame for you.

All of that never happened,
Because we were always perfect strangers.

I've never talked to you before,
I don't know you like 'Where every you will go by The Calling,'
I have no clue your favorite animal is a dog,
I don't know if you like purple,
Or if you like paramore.

Because we have never talked before,
We have always been perfect strangers.

And most important of it all,
You have never seen me,
At my worst,
The incident never happened,
We never had that problem.

Because you didn't see me,
And we are still perfect strangers.

Now my dear,
We have started again,
Strike up a conversation,
After all we are perfect strangers,
Who know what we'll find out,
We might fall after all,
But don't just sit there in silence,
Otherwise we might always be perfect strangers,
And i don't know a greater loss,
Then never getting to know an amazing stranger,
Like you....

Today is the first day back,
From what seemed like hell,
Sitting there trying not to cry as you,
Acted like i wasn't alive,
Like my name didn't ring a bell,
You ignored me,
I was dead and gone to you.

Oh dear god i wish i were through,
I'm sick of wanting,
And wasting my days,
Wishing and dreaming,
That we could go back and make a do-over,
Change the past,
Fix my mistake....

My biggest issue isn't you,
It's not what i did,
My biggest issue is...
I'm kicking myself,
While i'm down,
Because i think...

If i had waited a few more weeks,
Or even just changed my ways,
Then i'd be-able to be there for you,
It's obvious your not ok,
I know something's wrong,
And its killing me to know i can't do a **** thing to fix it....
I can't make you smile,
Or laugh,
I can't re assure you it'll all be okay....
I can't even make you happy....

I'd **** to hear your laugh just one more time,
To hear you're voice talking to me,
To see you smile back at me,
To catch you even looking at me.....
For all these things,
Although they may sound silly and small,
I'd still go to the end of the world to make them happen......

But i know that'll never happen,
My dreams and wishes are such a tease,
All they are doing is breaking me down,
So it's time i stop wanting,
Stop wasting my time waiting for you,
I can't cope with the pain and guilt,
And hopeless longing...

I'm over it all and it's got to end,
But every time i see your face,
Look into your brown eyes,
Every nerve in my body is set on fire,
My skin begins to burn,
And i know there's still a spark.

My heart...
It still beats for you,
It's burning because of you,
And everyday it explodes with passion when i see you,
Setting off fireworks in my stomach,
Making me cry because how much i miss you,
And need you,
And want to be with you...

Today i was ashamed,
Of what i actually did,
I grabbed the knife,
And cut a slice,
Of pie for me to eat....

I wish that were the truth,
The reason for my sudden blues,
I wish all i cut was pie,
And then walked off and cried,
But I stayed and craved thy blood.

I didn't cut too deep,
Just enough to bleed,
To quench thy thirst,
And suffocate thy pain.

And now from that one mistake,
I ruined thy life and now it's too late,
To fix everything.

That day you stopped talking to me,
I became a complete ghost,
Something you can't see.

I wanted to know why,
I had a good idea,
Of why you made me cry,
I pleaded and begged,
But you'd given me no reply.

Today i found out the truth,
You stopped talking to me,
Because i cut myself while sitting under our tree.

Now i feel the tears and pain,
Will vanish with my love for you,
you had driven me completely insane,
So now i say we're through!
recently things haven't been at their best. a really good friend of mine has cut off contact with me and i only found out why he did that today.

I'm tired,
My body screams for sleep,
But I'm still to scared to close my eyes,
And my heat is too incomplete,
I know tonight I'll remain awake,
Sleepless in a massive stampede,
Now it starts to get to my head,
And i begin to stop making sense,
Sleepless in the light of day,
And night's shadows too cold for my delight,
So I'll stay awake for eternity,
Insomnia isn't too far behind me,
So do i sleep and get ready for the night,
When i stay up well past the rising light????
I have no clue.... i have not slept properly for days and its getting to my head a little, i'm really starting to make no sense... any way as usual i wanted to try to express how tired i am and yet i can't sleep and this is how it turned out...... ENJOY???

I cut my hair,
And make over my face,
Trying to live up to your expectations,
Cos right now you think I'm a disgrace,
But I've just realized,
It's time to say,
***** you and move the hell on,
Change me and how i look,
For me and ONLY me.

But as i start to walk away,
I look back,
And see you so sad,
Your eyes filled with tears,
And that's when i finally got it,
I finally understood,
You didn't think i was a disgrace because of the way i looked,
It was because i felt the need to change for some one,
Other than me.....
i have no clue where half of this came from... i just finished cutting my hair when i just suddenly had the urge to write something, so i sat here for about five minutes thinking, then THIS poem was born.....
