My heart  sank to my stomach.
Tears welled in my eyes.
I got to the car just as my knees were about to buckle.
I climbed in and just curled into a ball in my seat.
I didn't care that it was hotter than hell.
I don't really care about anything anymore.
But I mean it's hard to care anymore.
Why care when no one else does?
You could spend all your time always trying to make sure someones okay.
Trying to make sure they feel loved.
Making sure you're always more than nice...
And all you'll get in return in silence and avoidance.
Almost like they don't even care.

It's the last week of school
And I'm sitting here in bed crying because I'm scared.
And I'm scared because you'll be leaving.
And I don't want you to leave because you've been my hope and strength.
I don't know if you fully understand either
The way I look up to you.
All the locked messages from you on my phone.
The way my eyes scan the crowd for you between classes,
just hoping to make eye contact; maybe to reassure me that you havn't forgotten me.
Do you understand why I text you so much?
I simply want to just talk to you.
I feel like were not going to talk much soon, so I feel a need to get it all in now.
Maybe if you don't fully understand why I do all that I do,
think of the way you think about Bug.
Now do you understand?
I feel bad*
Because I want to get you a really nice graduation present,
but I just don't have the time to do what I was planning.
And I feel bad because I've gotten mad at you when I shouldn't.
And I've said things I shouldn't have, and I probably hurt you.
So I feel bad.
And I feel bad because I think I'm being selfish.
Not wanting you to leave.
Am I?

They say some people come and go and have little impact.
Others leave footprints on your heart.
I hope you know which one you are.
You have changed me in a way I will never be able to describe.
You have been a way better friend than I deserve.
You are beautiful and you are going to go far.
I believe in you. I love you. And I thank God for you every single day.
Half of this probably doesn't even make sense

Sitting here doing this project at 12 o'clock at night;
I have to answer the question "Who am I?"
It's an interesting question,
and I can't answer it.
Because I don't know who I am anymore.
I just know that I'm not alright.

How could I love someone who's already so broken?
How could I love someone whose heart is in pieces?

I've been thinking...
*And I still don't have an answer for you.

Laying under the stars you grab my hand.
The butterflies in my stomach start to dance.

*Could this be the start of something new?

What if one day,
I just wasn't anymore.

I'm alive,
But am I really living?
I sleep,
So why am I still so tired?
I get out of bed every day,
But am I really awake?
I don't really find much funny,
So why do I fake the laughs?
I'm not actually saying anything of much importance,
But my mouth is moving.
I don't actually want to know,
So why am I still asking?
I'm not really happy,
*But I still have to smile
