Tell me please
By babygirl576 PLATINUM
Marion, Michigan

You keep pulling me back in every word you say do you have any idea what it does to me? What they mean to me? How it feels to hear you say you love me, but you wont prove it....

You lied, and I cried. You&#039;re a jerk, so I was hurt. You&#039;re a<br /> deceiver, But I was a believer. Sorry I wasted your time, I guess?

What is depression really? Is there one concrete definition, or has the meaning loosened as our generation has continued it&#039;s downhill descent? To me, depression is simply my life. I&#039;m not suicidal. I&#039;m not a cutter. I don&#039;t hate the world. I don&#039;t dress completely in black. I&#039;m just sad. I&#039;ve been sad for what feels like my entire life, but that&#039;s not true. I was happy once and I can vaguely remember what it felt like, but I can&#039;t touch it. I can&#039;t get that happiness back, I don&#039;t know how. That&#039;s what depression is to me, knowing what happiness is, but never being able to touch it, to feel it.- Jenny Leigh

who i am is not in the definition of ur beliefs<br /> i have every right to keep my head held high and regonize <br /> my beauty both mentally and physically..<br /> you dont define me<br /> you&#039;ve never been webster and you will never be god.<br /> i am a complex being and<br /> my true beauty lies in my state of mind.<br /> physically, i can be all that<br /> but i want ur eyes to see my mind,<br /> your ears to hear my thoughts<br /> and regonize my knowledge<br /> i am poetry...<br /> feel the words that slips off my lips<br /> the emotion that drips off my ink<br /> embrace the aura in every syllable that is written.<br /> Now watch me bring my emotions into your imagination.<br /> it is who i am, i am poetry.

&quot;Life is a package that you have to sign for. Yes, it&#039;s free. No, there&#039;s no guarantee as to what it holds. Open with caution, it&#039;s &#039;FRAGILE&#039;.&quot; (I made this up.)
