Slowly but surely, my death is approaching.
Nothing much to live for.

My life hurts to many people./

So begins the packing extravaganza of 2014.
I move on Thursday and have only packed 8 boxes of books so far.

[hey pssst]

this poem made me cry like oh my ******** god.
I feel this.

[Just A Wanderer]

I've been
workin' this graveshift
and I ain't made s**t
I wish I could
buy me a spaceship and fly...

i didnt realize how religious the college dropout was
the only obvious one to my 12 year-old self was jesus walks lol

[JGluvr69]

There's a lot I can't help
My depression and anxiety make me sick, and sometimes, they own me and control me
But I stay strong, and I do it for Eren.

I'm Trans (FtM pre-op) and i'm mildly open about that, and about being gay. But i'm still so terrified of my parents ever finding out...

[hey pssst]

I dont worry about fitting the profile of a feminist, I dont see how anybody can assume I'd be ashamed.
I dont whisper the word feminist, and i'm certainly not affraid of 'admitting' to being one.

[Alice Everheart]

This is getting ridiculous.
The only people who don't make me feel alienated are total strangers.
I hate it. I hate this. And every single person who has attributed towards it.

Chances are I won't be getting to spend the 3rd year anniversary with my boyfriend.
We'll celebrate it another day.
I knew it would happen.
I knew he would leave me alone at last moment.
He did ask me, but the only reason I let him go is cause he would be miserable if I made him stay. That and so he'd get to see his cousin that he hasn't seen in two years.

So I made a post on fb about being huddled up in my room alone.
I never make those. Always happy, cheery, uplifting s**t for everyone, cause I like to make people happy.
A friend of my brother's responds with 'knows that feel'.
Had to be a bit of a b***h and say that he at least had friends to hang with.
No one can't truly conceive how feeling alone to this level is like.
I've known people who have committed suicide for less.

[Teh Hakuness.]

Shh...

[Just A Wanderer]

I get down for my grandfather who took my momma
Made her sit that seat where white folks ain't wanna us to eat
At the tender age of 6 she was arrested for the sit in
With that in my blood I was born to be different...

[Just A Wanderer]

But I can't complaint what the accident did to my left eye
Cuz look what a accident did to Left Eye
First Aaliyah and now Romeo Must Die
I know a got angels watching me from the other side

[Just A Wanderer]

i remember seeing j ivy on def poetry jam
i always loved that show when i was younger
i really wish i was creative like that
that i could write beautiful poems like that

i wish i was articulate enough to convey my feelings like they could
