    Truth is...
    by J. Lau

    I used to think
    That I can control,
    The feelings I had for you
    And the thoughts of being with you.

    I kept my distance,
    I held my stance.
    I treasure the friendships,
    And I wished you both happiness.

    I knew that it will not
    Be an easy path,
    But it turns out to be much rougher
    Then I could ever imagine.
    Cause deep down,
    It hurts like crazy.

    Truth is...
    I cannot hold my feelings back
    And ignore its existence.
    I cannot pretend l am not jealous,
    That I'm not the one by your side.

    Truth is...
    I cannot ignore the pain anymore,
    When comforting you when you fall.
    I cannot stand seeing you being hurt over and over again,
    And there's nothing more I can do.

    Truth is...
    I'm not being truthful and fair to myself,
    Cause it hurts so much inside each time you cry.
    I cannot leave this wound open,
    And not distance myself to let it heal.

    Truth is...
    I had feelings for you ever since the day we met,
    And it only grew deeper as time past.
    I know that I should not feel this way,
    But I can't help myself thinking of you each day.

    Truth is...
    I was sure that you were the one,
    ever since we met again that day,
    Around the end of June.

    I don't know what to do anymore,
    My logic is overwhemled by my emotions.
    I still wish that everything will work out,
    Between you and him.
    But if one day in the years to come,
    That fate finally grant me the chance.
    I wish that we will be together,
    Forever less a day...

    For that is the day,
    I wanted you to know...
    How I truly felt ... about YOU.

    Let you go
    by "-"ciñdy"-"

    I know that we're over
    And things are falling apart
    I'm still in my dream realm
    I should of known it from the start

    But a reality start to overwhelm
    I wish it won't happen like this
    I can't make things happen my way
    I can't reminisce

    Things are unexpected
    I know I soon will have to let go
    And someday i'll let you know
    How I feel and what I feel

    I feel so lonely and felt so sad
    I'm sorry I lost the love i had
    I know that i'm not dreaming
    I know it's real

    I know every feeling
    That me, myself revealed
    I didn't know myself in reality
    Because I couldn't face the real me

    Now I only want you to know
    Is that I don't need you anymore
    Now I'll have to let you go
    And find a love I've never had before

    Photograph
    by Alyson

    Look at the girl
    How she sits so still
    Motionless in her depression
    Not knowing her will

    Silently watching
    Eyes open wide
    Never does she blink
    So her feelings she doesn't hide

    Shes looking through the glass
    At the people that surround her
    How they stare at her helplessly
    Wishing she was there

    But she just sits there silently
    With the smile upon her face
    To bad that its a mask
    And she holds it firmly in place

    That was in the past
    As the scene sadly shows
    In the photograph she will sit forever
    With the sadness nobody knows

    Treasure

    Tears stream down my cheek
    I watch you fly away
    To a kingdom unknown
    A paradise of better days

    A place of love is your stay
    Emotions haunt nevermore
    Sin is not a fear here
    Surroundings so pure

    Lies are no longer an issue
    The truth is what you find
    No more rage and hatred
    Peace too complicated for the human mind

    So comforting for me now
    The memories we shared
    Close to my heart they stay
    Forget them I wouldn't dare

    To the end of my days
    I'll mourn you forever
    You were my only love
    My only true treasure

    I am sorry I have not been perfect,
    During my eighteen years of life.
    I am sorry you think I am anorexic,
    And that I live life by a knife.
    I am sorry I am not the same little girl,
    That I was a short time ago.
    I am sorry that I feel so much pain inside,
    And that you have yet to see me grow.
    I am sorry you must look into these cold eyes,
    And that I have no confidence left to spare.
    I am sorry that I like being away from you,
    And that you hate the clothes I wear.
    I am sorry for keeping things from you,
    And for all my self-destruction.
    I am sorry for making you yell at me,
    And for causing you have that reaction.
    I am sorry for all the times I have sided with Dad,
    And for not feeling a bit of guilt.
    I am sorry for being the reason you damaged,
    The relationship we could have built.
    I am sorry for using your best kitchen knife,
    To slit my wrist for the first time.
    I am sorry for making time spent with me,
    Have to feel like a crime.
    I am sorry for not giving you hugs when you want them,
    And I am sorry for resenting you.
    I am sorry for not having the same beliefs,
    And for always making you argue.
    I am sorry I do not like you,
    And that I cannot forget things you have said.
    I am sorry that each and every day,
    Those words go through my head.
    I am sorry for never calling,
    And that I do not miss you at all.
    I am sorry you had to see me at my worst,
    Sorry you had to see me fall.
    I am sorry I am not the perfect daughter,
    And that I am not who you thought I would be.
    I am sorry, mother, for letting you down,
    I am so sorry for being me.

    This is not goodbye
    by Tabby

    Crying by his bedside my tears flow endlessly
    I held his hand so tightly never wanting to let go
    Trying to not think about what is about to be
    I look up at him trying to not let my sadness show

    His eyes are closed his breathing is slow and heavy
    I run my hands through his thick, dark, brown hair
    His handsome face is so pale with the color gray
    That I begin to cry even harder thinking it isn't fair

    Sickness is taking my true love away from me
    Draining away his energy happiness and light
    But not stealing our love away from each other
    That is the one thing that he was able to fight

    His eyes slowly open and he turns toward me
    He smiles a weak smile and touches my cheek
    I feel myself breakdown and burst into sobs
    trying to say don't die but I could no longer speak

    he grabs my hand and pulls me to him
    reaching for my face he brings me into a kiss
    then he hugs me with such a weak embrace
    I hug him so tight never wanting to end this

    Suddenly he lets go I pull myself slowly up
    He looks at me with such sadness in his eyes
    "I love you sweetheart"he says to me
    "I love you but there will be no goodbyes"

    "I love you to" I sob into his shoulder
    I lay on his chest hearing his heart as I cry
    I feel his breathing slowly fade away
    As i sob to myself I say "its ok this is not goodbye".....

    End of my Love Story
    By: ~*Who Cares?*~

    Love may be just a 4-letter word,
    Before love comes in, your free as a bird.
    But this word can lead to eternal sadness,
    As your heart begins to beat less and less.

    What ever happened to "We Belong Together?"
    You said we'd be together, but nothing lasts forever.
    "You wanna be my lady, I'm thinking more like my wife"
    Is what you sang to me, but you ended my love life.

    Now I call you, and I get your machine,
    Knowing your sitting there, hearing it ring,
    "Hi, this is Jesse, leave a message after the beep"
    Is what I always get, yet in my heart a place you keep.

    Saying goodbye to a guy like you,
    Is something that I never wanted to do.
    I thought I'd never have to worry, about my 2nd kiss,
    Because on the 1st I nearly missed.

    Yet you didn't care, because you said you loved me,
    And you wouldn't rush me about anything, you took it easy,
    Because you knew that I'm not ready for too much,
    So you said that enough was just getting a touch-

    From my hand. One kiss and I never saw you again,
    We continued to talk, every now and then.
    Now we barely talk, today was the first time in months,
    Yet I've dreamed about your face in the billions.

    I dream of our single kiss we had,
    Under the stars, but now it makes me so sad.
    I keep listening to our song, as I cry,
    I can't let go of you, but I don't know why.

    You were my single love, and I'll love you always,
    As minutes turn to hours, and hours to days.
    No matter who I end up marrying and having children with,
    You'll always be in my mind, this isn't a myth.

    I still love you Jesse.

    Can't
    can't do this no more
    can't live this lie
    i can't fall asleep and
    can't bare to cry

    can't run away
    can't live my life
    i can't stop this pain and
    can't stop this knife

    can't find myself
    can't be in the norm
    i can't find a safe place and
    can't hide from your storm

    can't hold up my head
    but i can't live this way
    i can't be your friend
    can't handle the pain

    can't let this happen
    but can't let it end
    you can't break my heart
    cause you know it can't mend

    can't say I'm sorry
    can't tell the truth
    i can't say i love someone and
    can't say that its you

    can't see you again
    can't tell you goodbye
    can't let you hug me
    cause you can't see me cry

    The Girl

    The girl is walking down a path
    with shadows of death above
    covering the light that
    she never seems to see

    Her life is black
    along with her heart
    She learns to live with the black
    She seems to know nothing else

    She walks down that path
    with signs of death above
    Happieness in her mind
    is a joke so she frowns

    She thinks about death
    the thought of suicde is fun
    Sliting her wrists
    and shoting that gun

    I never loved
    I never saw the light
    I never was happy
    I am such a fright
    Nobody will cry
    So tonight Im going to shot this gun under my chin and say one last goodbye

    These were her last words
    she wrote to everyone that
    has walking in and out of her life

    She took that gun
    her hands so still
    and said a final goodbye
    and went for the kill

    She shot a bullet
    right up her head
    as that girl
    falls down on the ground

    Her twin finds the body
    and the note that lye with
    she reads the note as
    she crys to herself

    She says to her died sister
    "Im not a twin without you
    so the other should die too"

    So she took a knife
    and slit her wrists
    till the life of the other girl
    could no longer exsist

    JUST FOR LOVE

    Father's sitting in the chair
    Being questioned by the police
    Little brother's crying hysterically
    Cousin shocked
    For he could not believe
    The brutality of the scene
    Drops of blood on the floor
    Trailing from the kitchen
    To the bathroom
    Laid with her eyes wide open
    Red from crying
    Was her body in the tub
    Filled with water
    Mixed with her blood
    On the sink
    A letter laid
    Written on it
    Was her reasons why
    She had finally given up on life

    "I died for you,
    I died for my friends
    I died for my family
    And finally
    I died for the truth to be revealed:
    That I NEVER got the love I wanted and needed!!
    I was tired of being neglected
    Tired of being misunderstood
    I was just tired of EVERYTHING!!!
    AND THEN
    He came into my life
    Uncried every single tear that I cried
    And gave me all the security that I needed
    He brought warmth and sunshine into my dark
    Frigid
    Lonely world
    HE
    Showed me what true love really means
    He told me that he loved me
    And of course I believed
    For I never felt this way
    Until he came into my life
    As time went by
    Little by little
    He began to change
    My world began to get cold
    It wasn't warm any more
    The warmth was gone
    HIS warmth was gone
    So I decided to confront him
    I told him I felt his love slipping away
    And that I wanted to know
    WHERE DID IT GO?
    He looked at me with eyes filled with sorrow
    Eyes begging for forgiveness
    And told me there and then
    THE TRUTH
    That there was ...
    Somebody new
    The minute I hears those words
    I was blinded with tears
    My heart stopped beating
    Darkness overcame my world
    I couldn't breathe
    Could this really be happening to me?
    Suddenly
    I was back where I started
    Lonely
    Cold
    And lost
    But also afraid
    My heart was shattered
    I never felt this before
    How can one live without a heart?
    How can I live without a heart?
    I can't
    NO ONE CAN
    I tried so hard to do it
    But it isn't possible
    I just cannot live without my heart
    I craved for my heart back
    I craved for love
    But love
    I did not receive
    So look at me now
    There in the tub
    And you will see
    I died because he broke my heart
    I died for love
    Love from him
    Love from my family
    Love from you
    Love
    just for me
    I died for the love
    I DID NOT RECEIVE!!!
    But just in case
    You didn't know
    I loved him I loved my friends
    I loved my family
    And last but not least
    I loved you
    Now take this into consideration
    Until the day we meet again
    Did YOU
    Ever love me?
    Did you my friend?

    The letter was closed
    With the tears she had cried
    The tears she will forever shed
    Even though she is no longer alive
    She will continue to weep
    For she is lonely
    She is cold
    Pale
    Drained of all her blood
    Drained of all her love
    The one thing in the world she could have gotten from anybody
    She did not obtain
    How could this be?
    Look at her now
    Weeping endlessly
    Freezing
    Surrounded by darkness
    Sightless due to the tears she have cried
    With no heart to call her own
    With no one to call her own
    With no love to call her own
    But yet for love
    She has died

    Dwelling in the pain you left behind
    By Ipsita Bose

    I carry on with my life,
    even after our relation has broken
    The memories live on,
    as I carry the golden token

    I don't want to look in your eyes
    because i can not afford to listen to all the things they have to say
    It's too late, you've taken too long
    and now it's going to end this way

    Your smile is still trying to win something,
    but it no longer melts my heart
    That one dream of us uniting is now over,
    It's about time we must depart

    There's pain in love
    and you never realized
    You set out to buy my heart
    but it was never priced

    We never watched a sunrise
    We never enjoyed the midnight breeze
    Counting money every step of your life,
    that's why you never knew how it felt to count raindrops sitting under trees

    Now, I'm not looking for anything
    There's nothing I want to find
    I'm just dwelling here
    In the pain you left behind

    Valentine's Day
    by Even roses have thorns

    They sit together
    on the lover's holiday
    cuddling, and smiling
    acting lovey dovey
    he knows she wants to die sometimes
    she thinks there might be someone else
    they part in their ways
    he goes to the one he loves
    she to the one that loves her
    she holds the cold metal, his photo
    crying why couldn't you love me
    like the way you love her
    she holds the blade closer
    thinking "walk the sidewalk"
    she gets closer to her want
    he now feels her pain
    leaving his lover
    he runs down the road
    now she is thinking "no turning back"
    the blade "walks the sidewalk"
    now turning, it "crosses the street"
    he reaches her house
    tears running down their eyes
    she clutches the note
    he clutches the nob
    just a second too late
    she lays there motionless
    kneeling beside her
    he reads the note
    "we both can't get what we want"
    he knows, though no one else does.
    he now belongs to her
    she got her wish
    but he shall not
    that was her happy ending
    but his sorrowful beginning

    If... By Meaghen

    If cutting myself will release my pain

    Then ill never stop slicing my veins

    If shooting myself will make me forget

    Then id shoot myself a million times without regret

    If hanging myself will take away my tears

    Then ill do it holding back no fears

    If drowning myself will make everything go away

    Then id do it every single night and day

    If taking a pill will make everything stop

    then ill take them until i drop

    But none of This will ever truly take away your pain

    No matter what it will always remain..

    "Just a little blood"

    She sits and thinks about the meaning of life,
    She can't even feel her wrist touching the knife.
    "Just a little blood" she thinks in her mind,
    As the blood poars, pain and tears are combined.
    "This pain is better than any other pain",
    she says to herself when it shoots through every vein.
    She grabbes a towel and puts it over the voom,
    This is her end, this is her doom.
    Her sight is weakened, she going blind,
    As she thinks to herself, she doesn't really mind.
    Her death is unimportant, no one will care,
    "They won't even notice, I was never even there",
    A wet and shiny tear falls down her cheek,
    As everything goes black, some words she tries to speak.
    She forces the words forward as her final last breath,
    "Just a little blood" she says, "will lead to my death"

    Pain

    Whenever we're like this,
    when life seems like hell,
    everything seems to go so wrong,
    I wonder if things will ever get well.

    But even when everything seems fine,
    behind those eyes is where your pain lies,
    it hurts so much to see them,
    but I pretend its OK and try to make time fly.

    Whenever I think about you,
    and all that you go through,
    I remember how useless i am,
    since I can't do anything to make you feel less blue.

    Maybe my surface means nothing,
    it shows nothing like what is underneath,
    but I know it'll all just going to cause us all more heartbreak,
    if i show any weakness, our pain will only be a time thief.

    All your friends think I don't care,
    sometimes i wonder if I am wrong again,
    but I know things will only be worst if I did not stay strong,
    I hope that you will never ever see my pain.

    Dreaming

    She perches on a bridge arms stretched high
    Ignoring the murmurings of passers by
    She leaps into space as if she can fly
    And she falls

    She dives down deep into the blue sea
    She swims deeper though burning her lungs may be
    Down and down she swims, gliding smooth and free
    And she drowns

    She lights a burning pyre, and the flames touch the sky
    She watches the smoke spiralling up on high
    She steps up onto the fuel, brittle and dry
    And she burns

    She murmurs and rustles in her heavy sleep
    A scarred arm slides out under the white sheet
    In her mind are sky, flames and water deep
    And she dreams

    Not Mine

    I was your voice when
    you couldn't speak.

    Not my words.

    I was your strength
    when you stood to bleed.

    Not my hurt.

    You needed support
    and you know I was there.

    Not my fight.

    Your hand was guilty
    of an unforgivable crime.

    Not my touch.

    You were
    struggling to breathe.

    I held you.

    Not my breath.

    You were dying from
    your own shame.

    I watched.

    Not my death.

    You were missing
    your moments alive.

    I heard.

    Not my life.

    Begging for sunshine
    in this prison cell.

    Your world not mine.

    I'm everything you needed
    but nothing that I wanted.

    -Things Change

    Sitting on her window sill
    Reflecting on years past
    She just can't help but laugh
    As she watches the children play in the street
    She remembers the days when she was one of them
    But things change, nothing ever remains the same

    Once upon a time
    Her life was filled with make believe and lies
    Like a fairy tale right out of a book
    She once had a father and a caring mother
    They were once a very happy family
    But things change, nothing ever remains the same

    She used to believe she was a princess
    And that nothing could ever harm her
    That the people she loved would live forever
    Never to leave her side
    That she'd always be daddy's little girl
    But things change, nothing ever remains the same

    She stopped believing all of these lies
    The day her father died
    No longer were her days filled with happiness and laughter
    They were replaced with sadness and tears
    She soon turned to the knife to help solve her problems
    Things change, nothing ever remains the same

    Her mother began drinking more
    And by the end of every day she lay passed out on the floor
    Leaving her little girl to care for herself
    And showing her no love
    So the girl cried herself to sleep every night
    Things change, nothing ever remains the same

    The little girl grew up wishing on a star
    Hoping and praying things would get better
    Weeks turned into months and months turned into years
    The little girl's prayers continued to go unanswered
    And she still cries herself to sleep every night
    Things change, nothing ever remains the same

    This little girl turns and looks into the mirror
    And to her surprise the reflection she sees is me
    I'm the girl with no father and an alcoholic for a mother
    I'm the one dealing with depression
    And the one who has a very deadly obsession
    I'm the one praying my suffering ends

    But each and every day my prayers go unanswered

    Valentine's Day
    by Even roses have thorns

    They sit together
    on the lover's holiday
    cuddling, and smiling
    acting lovey dovey
    he knows she wants to die sometimes
    she thinks there might be someone else
    they part in their ways
    he goes to the one he loves
    she to the one that loves her
    she holds the cold metal, his photo
    crying why couldn't you love me
    like the way you love her
    she holds the blade closer
    thinking "walk the sidewalk"
    she gets closer to her want
    he now feels her pain
    leaving his lover
    he runs down the road
    now she is thinking "no turning back"
    the blade "walks the sidewalk"
    now turning, it "crosses the street"
    he reaches her house
    tears running down their eyes
    she clutches the note
    he clutches the nob
    just a second too late
    she lays there motionless
    kneeling beside her
    he reads the note
    "we both can't get what we want"
    he knows, though no one else does.
    he now belongs to her
    she got her wish
    but he shall not
    that was her happy ending
    but his sorrowful beginning

    Unbelievable. Literally took the words out of my mouth. I don't know really much more to say. I just hate life.
