Writer's Block: Reacting to my bad mood

  • May. 14th, 2008 at 8:52 PM

When you're having a bad day, how do you react?


View other answers

 When I'm having a bad day I use listen to music, draw, and write. Sometimes I'll run away for a few hours and go where no one can bother me. I just sit alone and let me calm down on my own time. I forget the world, forget the drama, and forget time. And when I come back everything is more clear. So even if the bad mood isn't totally lifted, I can make sense out of it.

Crying Everyday

  • May. 14th, 2008 at 8:29 PM

I just don't understand my life at all. 
I want to band my head against the desk just to make something clear.
I'll have one or two absolutely happy days. 
They seen so real, and so perfect, but then its over. 
Depression comes flooding back into me, blocking out thoughts I once had.
I constantly quit things I love because I'm giving up on myself. 
I-I can't. This just doesn't seem right. How come nothing is fitting together in my head? 
I want it to stop. I need it to stop. B-but I don't know how. I don't want to do that to myself. 
I'm screaming on the inside, and sobbing on the outside. Just let all these thoughts stop! 
I don't want to have to worry about what everyone else thinks. I don't want to go around being a fake! 
I'm tired of smiling, I'm tired of laughing, I'm tried of caring! I need to be let free of this life. 
And soon my wish will come true. I'll be gone and happy, not having a thing to care about. 
Just nothingness, which would feel so much better than this. And I'm sorry if I got close to you. 
I shouldn't have. We all knew this was going to happen at some point. Yes, I'm finally done. 

Singing, Singing

  • May. 13th, 2008 at 9:01 PM

I'm oh so sorry I'm such a nice person. 
Getting yelled at for having no temper 
Singing, singing away the trouble. 
Singing, singing for a better day. 

Pushed down when I learn to stand tall, 
kicked when I'm already,
oh but I'm still happier than you, 
look at that sick, smug smile, 

haha yes you think you can control me, 
well guess again my little friend, 
you don't get it do you, 
push me down and you're just hurting yourself,
i know how to recover but you sure don't 
Singing, singing that you'll be okay
Singing, singing that you'll one day learn 

You're confidence is oh so weak, 
you keep it up with that intimdating cover, 
you're angry words, that come from nowhere in paticular
i really don't think you get this at all 

yelling at me won't help you at all
i'm oh so sorry, i hope you'll learn, 
you've gotta pick yourself up before you throw someone down, 
no one thinks you're cool for hurting someone else
Singing, singing that you'll help yourself 
Singing, singing that you'll be strong 

never lose my temper and more intimidating than ever
i know how to hold myself up high without anyone else
i can dream for myself and decide what to do 
headstrong and determined you can't keep me down for long

but oh how you try thinking it'll make you look powerful 
no this isn't about power, you don't know your place
and you don't want anyone else to know theirs 
the envy is eating up your insides 
Singing, singing your eyes will no longer be green
Singing, singing you'll see the beauty in yourself 

Singing, singing for you and not me
Singing, singing that everything will work out fine

Scream into your pillow

  • May. 10th, 2008 at 7:57 PM

 Scream into your pillow,
vent non-stop to your friends, 
punch a hole in your wall. 
I'll stay in the shadows and do this myself. 
Everyone cracks under the pressure,
while I keep my feelings hidden.
It's work, its nothing personal. 
Your not fit to handle my world so just go. 
Sit in your laid out, unimaginative world of business, 
while I stand strong in the world of art. 
Creating music, pictures, books, that you think you understand. 
And criticizing them openly, when you could never do anything half as good.
So next time you go to make fun of it, think. 
Could you ever do that? 
Can you write a song and sing it for millions of people? 
Can you write a 600 page book all the words twisted together sucking you in? 
Can you paint a picture that will capture the view of the world for thousands of years? 
No, I really don't think you can. 
So leave us alone, the people who choose to live their life on the edge. 
Who create new things everyday completely from thoughts in their mind, something you could never do. 
So just stop and live your boring life; and don't be prejudiced because we're different.

1.2.3.

  • May. 9th, 2008 at 8:12 PM

1, 2, 3 I'm gone.
And I'm oh so sure you'll miss me very much.
Please, I can see how much I annoy you.
Turning my back on me everytime I start talking.
Then fine, I'll stop.
And when or should I say if, you try talking to me you'll know how I feel.
I'm reaching out to make you and me both happy, but you don't want the help.
So fine, leave me behind, I've been alone before.
I'll dream another day; maybe when I have the time.

I'm saying Goodbye now, incase I don't get another chance.
All this reaching out was a waste of my time. 
So if you when you see me again I'm different its really just you.
This is the real me, the one you never saw behind the covers. 
Well the covers are gone now and you'll see what I was trying to get out. 

Yeah, Yeah I get it.

  • May. 8th, 2008 at 7:21 PM

I knot that I've said I'm better and said that I'm really trying and that everytime I do I fail. Well, it's not that easy. You all have friends right? You know, ones that you can count on to listen to you, don't try to control you, don't always ignore you, or look at you funny. Well.I.Don't. And its so hard to go through all this, walking through the halls getting the worst looks you've ever seen, people hating you that you don't even know. And with the few friends you have you're always second best if not third or even fourth. That'll or they'll walk away and talk to someone else just to avoid you. I can tell you one thing, its hell. All I ever wanted was just one chance, one. I garuntee I could have at 3 or 4 good friends. I guess this is the price I pay for being perfect so many years. Preschool through fourth grade, look at the center of the popular crowd and theres me. Fifth grade, half popular half not; you know I talked to all them, but had geekier friends too. Sixth grade, dropped off the face of the earth. You know? I had some friends, but it was a huge change for me, a depressing change. Seventh grade, the attention comes back, its all negative. And now I'm stuck in it. I want to be freed so badly. I strive for compliments and get shot down more and more. My heart isn't in half, its gone. Love doesn't exist to me anymore, no real feelings do. Just guilt, because this has to be all my fault and the most depressing feelings. 4 hards year of depression, and I'm not yet 14. This is just too much for  me. Why me? Can't I have a guardian angel too? I want to run far, far away, I need too. Run to the South side just to feel alive, knowing I could get shot there. And to Death Valley to heat on my skin. Antartica to feel a chill run through my body. Iraq, Iran, and other middle-eastern countries to feel hatred. Italy to feel loved, and like I belong. Lines of graves lined up, to feel sorry. Anything I can't find in this suffocating hole I live in.

Dance with Me

  • May. 5th, 2008 at 9:02 PM

 

Dance with me

And we’ll leave this night behind

Spinning up a tornado

Destroying everything else around

 

The night calls for you, for us,

Wander into the shadows never to return

Can you hear them screaming out in pain

You’re the only one who can save people like us

An angel left in all the despair

 

Dance with me

And we’ll leave this night behind

Spinning up a tornado

Destroying everything else around

 

Sing for us and bring us your hope

Even when you want to die you’re there

An eternal light, burning a path through this terrible life

Stay the night with me

We’ll make things right

Prove we belong

It’s not a dying fight

 

Dance with me

And we’ll leave this night behind

Spinning up a tornado

Destroying everything else around

 

Give them a show

We’re here to stay and they should know

Never show the mercy we didn’t get

Let them bleed for all our tears

This world was never fair for us

And now we finally get that freedom

 

Run through the streets, screaming at night

Make them wish we weren’t free

Make a path for them to follow, lead the rebellion

Never give in you represent us all

You’ll find our support in the dark lit streets

In the shadows of overgrown forests

Always there for you

Leave them scared in the ruins behind us

 

Dance with me

And we’ll leave this night behind

Spinning up a tornado

Destroying everything else around

 

Their the weakest, and we’re the strength

Time they learn what we mean to them

Never to have survived without us

Dealing with feelings that last a lifetime

Regret is as strong as flames

Vengeance cannot be stopped at any cost

Heaven exists with us and hell with them

Always portrayed the opposite, time to set it right

 

Dance with me

And we’ll leave this night behind

Spinning up a tornado

Destroying everything else around

[[Dance with me

We’ll leave this night behind]]

9 ft. Underground

  • May. 3rd, 2008 at 8:09 PM

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

 This is all so hard,

It’s easier to just end it all,

Dreaming for a better day to come,

But believing it will never happen

Living on empty, broken hopes

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

Gliding by on auto-pilot,

Waiting for something to pull me out,

Bring my attention back to the present,

Watching other lives go by,

Not able to live my own

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

Tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes go by,

Tragedies happen and there’s still no feeling,

Smiling, laughing throughout the day,

Tears spilling out all night long,

A cover so hard to keep up all the time

 

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

 

A few seeing through the built up act,

But no one reaching in to save me,

This world doesn’t care anymore,

Whatever happens happens,

Keep yourself on top in these times.

 

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

Looking through the dirty glass,

Vicariously living, sick in the head,

Body completely dead, but it won’t stop,

Watching the world go on, staying silent in the back,

Laughing at mistakes, living in my own,

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

Surrounded by endless crowds,

Completely alone, forever lost,

Wondering what happens next,

Praying to a god that doesn’t exist,

Knowing nothing is after this for me,

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead. 

 

 

It’s all the same to me,

Hiding throughout my life,

Stuck in a grave, rotting away after,

Asking myself which is better off for me,

9 ft. underground sometimes seems so much better

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

 

So this is the end of the line,

8 ft. under and barely alive

Its 8 ft. up and 1 ft. down

Wouldn’t you choose to go 1 ft. down too

I can see my tombstone now, made up of lies

 

 

Shoot myself in the head,

Wish to be dead.

 

Somehow Satisfied

  • Apr. 27th, 2008 at 8:19 PM

Nothing makes sense in my head, 
No one thinks I'm acting right.
Thw world is falling down around me. 
Friends are angry, not believing me. 
But I finally feel complete. 
I know what matters, and screw the rest. 
I love the way this is turning out. 
Throughout the sad I can stand tall, and not break down. 
An army couldn't destroy my mood if they tried. 
The worst of the worst could happen, but I know how I am. 
That's what this is all about isn't it? 
Finding you, escaping the pressure of everything around you. 
Well, I found myself and just in time. 
No one thing could ruin my inner peace. 
I don't care what anyone else thinks of who I am. 
I am me, and always will be. 
I know you all think I'm being someone else, 
but you were wrong, not me. 
This is me, and nothing can change that.

Found my Place

  • Apr. 27th, 2008 at 12:21 PM

So I finally think I understand my own life better. 
&& I think I found out who my true friends are.
Sadly, that means I know the ones that have been lying to me. 
Now I'm stuck, because I don't want to screw anything else up fixing this. 

How do I say goodbye without them knowing why?
I don't want anyone mad at me, or trying to get even over nothing. 
A lot of my old friends won't handle it well, I get yelled at for everything I say.
Do I try saying goodbye and take the risk or stay the way I am?

I have no idea what's right, but I know what I'm going to do. 
I'm tired of listening to everyone around me. 
I'm ready to take control of my own life, and stop listening to what other people want. 
&& if someone gets hurt, I can't be blamed because I'm trying to save myself. 

Some things might be easy to change, but most things won't be so clear. 
I'm just going to have to follow whatever I think. 
And only take advice from the people I know want the best for me. 
They have to value my life the way I value theirs to be a true friend. 

No more of this, I'd die for you, and you'd leave me to die.
So I love all you who care, and I'm done with the rest. 
< 3

This ain't my Life

  • Apr. 15th, 2008 at 8:15 PM

No, I'm not supposed to know a 19 year old girl dying. I'm not supposed to be wanting to do drugs. I'm not supposed to drink. And I'm pretty damn sure suicide notes aren't normal. Really just, why ? Did I do something? Or is it just me you randomly picked to hate, because everyone needs someone to make fun of. No, I don't think its either of those, you just don't care. I bet when I'm not around you forgot everything you've said or thought about me, I'm just another nobody. But when I'm there you feel then need to make fun of me, kill my confidence in every way you can. And I know it's true, I know your friends. You don't talk about me when I'm out of hearing range. Only when I'm in hearing range and you pretend not to know I can hear every word you say perfectly. Each one another stab to the heart, I'm not sure how I'm still breathing. And I expect I won't be forever, not as long as you. So just remember what you all did to me, and don't do it to someone else. I'm hanging on a thread here and it isn't fun. You all watch too, fighting over so gets to cut the last, sinlge, frayed thread holding me up and together. You want to do this to me. So just don't ever talk to me again. I don't want to hear it.


How can you not see what you're doing to me? Stop pushing me so hard to realize your dreams. I can't remember having a true dream of my own. Notes from 2nd grade is what happiness I have left. I [[want]] to dream. I really just want to be normal. NO! Why do you do this to me? I still feel the pain after 6 advils, all the overdossing I do. Make it go away, please? I still love you, but I can't do this. This really was'nt my [[first]] choice, bot what do I have left? Can you not see the fear, the guilt, the remorse, the tragedy shining deep through my eyes? Well, now they're cold, never to feel that gain. I didn't want to do this to me or you, but you left no other options.


                                                                               Goodbye Forever < 3

Less like a Lifestyle, More like a Torture

  • Apr. 12th, 2008 at 8:35 PM

Suffocating under the worlds pressures

Making everyone else’s issues mine

Standing up for people I barely know

Getting beat down all the time

 

How am I supposed to stay standing

Everything is getting smaller

Claustrophobia setting in

Yet I still do this to myself

 

Seems harder each time I take a breathe

More pointless to keep on trying

Less like a lifestyle,

More like a torture

 

Strangled by mine own thoughts

By my own bad behavior

Putting myself in the worst situations

Beaten up so no one hears a rude comment

 

Defending people who hate me

Impossible to hate anyone but myself

I ask why people hate me

But maybe its because I hate myself

 

Carrying everything with me

Not able to let go

But always pretending to

Dreaming of a day that will never come

 

I can’t stop what I’m doing

Because even though I’m dying inside

Other people see me happy

&& are happy themselves

 

So its destroy them

Or destroy myself instead

I choose their life over mine

But is this really I choice I need to make

 
I really was trying as hard as I could. Maybe I don't have it in me. Sure, I act like Miss Perfect who can hold herself through the worst, but is that really who I am? All of you who think you know everything still only know my act. Its like another one of my addictions, lying to you all. Maybe I don't even know woh i really am, or maybe I just hate who I am. But I can't stop the streams of lies, and I can't stop doing what I think is better for others. I give up on arguements I'm right about, to hide what I'm really like. I'm leading a secret life like those dramatic tv show people. Only this one isn't fake and I have know escape out of it. Either tell everyone what I'm most ashamed of and afraid of, even thogh its me. Or keep doing what I'm doing. Whatever way I choose, people will still hate me, maybe even more. I'll get ignored just as much, hearing about people hanging out, never being involved. I think I'm just lost. The best days always have the worst endings, like piano hanging by a string, its bound to fall and be destroyed, everyone waiting for that tragic moment. Maybe my life is a show to people, maybe I'm not meant to fit in or have friends. I'm one of those freaks in a circus.  

I GIVE UP !

  • Apr. 8th, 2008 at 7:44 PM

I was wrong, okay ?!?!? WRONG WRONG WRONG ! 
I'm not okay, && I never will be. 
So why the hell do I keep trying ? 
I think I did it to try to convince myself on other lies that would never be true . 
Like the one that people care, they don't ! 
How could I be so stupid ? 

They all care about themselves more . 
&& I bet they'd all drop me in millisecond if they wanted or needed to . 
Those bitches lied to me, stupid manipulaters . 
I just. don't.understand.  
The same thing happens over && over . 
When am I going to learn ? 
Have I ever had a reason to really trust one of them ? 
No, but I do it anyway . 

I don't know, maybe I enjoy torturing myself . 
Telling people my secrets, waiting for them to spill them to someone else . 
Don't want to do this anymore, not sure how to stop. 
I need a way out of this, if only it were more clear. 

If only, if only.....

Can Faking it help ?

  • Apr. 8th, 2008 at 4:39 PM

Sometimes, you just need to fake the happiness. 
If you do it enough, you can actually start to feel happier. 
Because even a forced laugh is better than being all sad looking. 

Trust me on this, it really does help to act all normal. 
Because well if you act sad, you're distancing(it is so a word!) yourself 
But if you act happy lots of people will talk to you still.
So even if it seems hard, its a good thing to do, seriously. 


Just don't give up, there's always a bright side, and if I can find it so can you.
Do yourself the favor and fake it even if you're not really happy.

Alright....that was sort of odd. I kind of feel like a therapist now, omfg I'm Dr. Phil ! 


What talent do you have that you wish more people would recognize?


View other answers

 I wish that more people would realize I have a talent to pretty much do anything I want. I mean, most people think just because I get grades that well, aren't the best, that I'm really stupid. But I can do something if I put my mind to it. I just wish people would see me as more than a stupid girl who happens to do dangerous stuff a lot. I'm more than that.

What do you think is too serious to joke about?


View other answers

 I don't really think anything is too serious to joke about. I mean, having fun with something can make a sad situation a lot happier. Also, what harm can a joke cause, its not like people mean anything by them. Jokes are a perfect way to cheer someone up and make an uncomfortable situation more fun. I mean some topics can be really awkward if you don't joke about it just a little bit.

What do you bring most to a friendship?


View other answers

 Hmmm...what do I bring to a friendship. I think I bring fun and slightly dangerous and stupid ideas to try out. Okay, so maybe adding the slightly was a total understatement. I LIVE for stupid, dangerous, and fun ideas. But I mean, where's the excitement in doing safe, boring stuff all the time? You have to be a daredevil at some point.

An Illusion ?

  • Mar. 30th, 2008 at 10:29 AM

Making it through the day is getting easier again. 
But this has happened before,  
How do I know I won't just fall harder again ? 
Is it just because my dad is gone 
and I can't hear him screaming, 
Or because I'm faking strength for everyone else  ?

I want to learn how to care about myself
I want to feel like I'm worth my own time 
People need to stay by me or this won't work. 
But I still feel stronger, like this is something I'm meant to do ? 
Will it last long enough to pull me out 
or am I just about to lose control again ? 

Is it being away from judging peers 
or not worrying about my grades. 
The freedom to do what I want to do, 
whenever I feel the need.
To sleep in the afternoon and stay up all night.

Is it fear of what's to come? 
Knowing that if I've broken down twice in one week now,
I'll get worse if I don't pull out of this.
Each time I had something to help me geel strong. 
Whether it be a promise of a friend 
Or my kittens sitting with me till my hope is back. 

I don't want this to be an illusion,
I want my strength back, 
my contagious happiness everyone felt. 
I don't want it to be fake, there's nothing good about that. 
I need to act like myself, carefree all the time,  
and stop being worried about things that haven't happened.

Starting Over

  • Mar. 27th, 2008 at 8:25 PM

This is the last time I make myself puke,
the last time I starve myself.  
Never taking pills to numb the feelings again . 
I'm changing my life, I'm not ready to die. 
I won't try to kill myself again. 

I will eat healthy and loss weight the right way. 
I will get my grades back to their best, I won't slack. 
I will deal with my feelings in constructive ways. 
I will get better. 
I'm saving myself, but still not with the right motivation.
This isn't about me still. 
Its about the people who need me. 
It needs to be about me now.
