Take These Broken Wings and Learn to Fly #Pt.I

I have a lot of demons. I've made a lot of mistakes. But I'd like to suppose that I can move on from them.

But the harder I fought my demons, the stronger they grew.
I do not wish to complain. I do not wish to have done what I have done. I do not wish to have regret, or a stabbing over-sense of responsibility, a strive in sensitivity.
I've been struggling for the past months. Even so in the last month. I was overcame with the urge to end my life. I couldn't say it. I couldn't tell anybody. And nobody asked. I brooded over it, and came to conclusion that I could do no such thing with my mother in consideration. But as I tried to cope with my problems, I noticed they multiplied in size, in darkness, and in seriousness.
I had brought with me my many years of rather dull experiences in the perspective of the rest of the world, but almost unacceptable in the eyes of the people around me, I would think. I am that type of person, that forgives, but never forgets. But that was only when it came to other people. Because when it came to me, I could never forgive, let alone forget.
I am not a whole child, a pure child. Nothing was done to me, but the things that I've chosen to do, thoughtlessly. I have not lost a lot, but yet I seemed to be crumbling away at the edges because of these little things. I have not been dysfunctional all my life, no. But it came to my attention that, I should be. Or in other words, why shouldn't I be? Because others have it worse than me? It wasn't a good enough reason. I could deal with worse, if it were inflicted on me. Because the only thing I've always been running away from is responsibility.
There is something about me. Something that brings me to claw myself and hit myself. Something that permits me to punish myself when no one else would. But just as the problems are not as big, these punishments are just as little. I cannot cut myself. I cannot attempt to commit suicide.
But I wish I could.

I've been trying to get someone to notice this.

But no one will.
But true, why should they?

There's been another fight.

It's not that bad. Nobody ever gets hurt physically.
But maybe that's what's dangerous about it. You can't see someone bleeding on the inside.

My room.

This is where everything happens. Where everything happened.
Everything that goes wrong with me. I don't know why, or how. Or if these little things matter. But it just feels like it should.
Maybe I'm just overthinking it?

It's just the long nights, the crying, the accidents, the broodings, the times when I'm bored and the moments where I'm sick of myself. Everything happened right here.
How do I sleep at night?

There's a boy.

There's always a boy.
God, I'm sick of boys!
Dumped the last one, now, didn't I? Sickening. I hate myself.

But that's beside the point. (Well, yes, of course, I still hate myself.)
He's taken. I don't know him so well, and he doesn't know me so well. But we get along, very well. He makes me feel okay, but most people do. So what?
So I wish I had someone like him. But I can't tell anybody, 'cause he has a girlfriend. And I don't actually have feelings for him. I just wish I had someone like him. And I don't like boys. They scare me now. I don't know why. It's just a statement, that.
I must be sexually frustrated or something, right?

But I think if he weren't taken, and if I'd never been taken, just because I couldn't wait -- that was it. I just couldn't wait, could I?
Bitch.
(Oh, no, I'm talking about myself.)

I remember.

A lot of things. Can't really tell what's worth remembering and what's not anymore.

I think they suck.

I'm talking about my friends. They just suck.
No, it's not my teenage bitch of a drama queen side talking here. They just do.
I was in school, around them, and I couldn't help it, I just cried, and nobody bloody cared. I felt sick around them. And I kept digging my nails into my forearm. But it wouldn't bleed.

I don't know, I think they're gonna like it when I die.
...No, I don't think that.
I just really want to see their sorry faces, dripping with tears of remorse when I die.

Oh hey, right there, I just decided. I want to die.

I had a good day today.

Yeah, invisible reader, finally, right? :)

I woke up and made breakfast for myself. Pancakes, yum. Then I went out for a walk. There's no one around, you see. My family went back to our hometown and it's just me at home. I like being alone sometimes.
Then I sat around listening to music and watching TV. What usually happens at those moments is that I get a panic attack on these nerves about how I should be studying. But I enjoyed watching NCIS this time around. Zero nervous attack.
Then I cooked pasta for lunch and sat outside, watching little cars zoom past and Mr. Roberts cat lazing on his porch until it started to rain. And I thought why not? Why not what? Play in the rain!
So I ran up and down, danced around, smiling to myself this crazy, wide smile. And I felt alive.
It reminds me of when I was little...

Oh God, here it comes.
Dead down. Bend.

Sheesshh. Can't have a full happy day now, can I?

Watched Anastasia.

While I ate dinner. That was these ice cream cones with the ice cream toppled over chocolate-ed popcorn. I cried. Aw, shucks.
I miss being a kid.

Goodness Gracious.

Oh, f***.
(appreciate the censorship).

WHUUT. It's my birthday next week already.
I hate my blood birthday.
Last year I made that mistake.... which... oh F***!
I hate birthdays.
I don't ever want to have another birthday.
KILL ME NOW!

Untitled.

Last year, my mother had taken me out for brunch before I pranced out to see the rest of my friends and my *take note* boyfriend. My mom didn't know. She didn't.
I hate myself. Every f***ing day is a reminder of how I betrayed her trust.
Now, I have to face my birthday?
And now he's my ex. Yay. Great. I feel great. Just 'cuz I ended it before things got worse. But I feel sick to the gut when I think of myself.
Disgusting.
Yeah, you're right, it wasn't that bad. I didn't do anything that bad.

Bad enough, honey, bad enough.

Tomorrow's the day.

I feel so much guilt that I feel like I could jsut come up and confess about things to my mom but I think she might die before she gets to murdering me so I won't say a word.
I love her so much.
And I hope to God that that's all that counts for.

I hit my head on the wall today.

Here's the thing.

I did used to have positivity.
I used to be happy. Even though before that, I wasn't. But I worked very hard on being happy. I even came up with philosophies so well and wise that I could teach other people on how to be happy. I was doing great. And then I made one mistake that brought back everything before that.
No, Invisible Reader, I'm not going to tell you what it is. But I will say, that everything's going to be okay, from here on in :)

Why, you ask? Why the sudden positivity?
Because I have to, well, sort of. Then there's the fact that today didn't turn out as bad as I thought it would be. I woke up in the morning and smiled to that broken looking ugly face in the mirror and washed it, brushed my teeth, got in the shower and dressed up to look pretty. I put makeup on to carry the red bump I caused on my head last night.
I got out of my room and told my mom that today, let's just go out. I got a call from my friends saying they wanted to go out, but I turned them down because I wanted to be with my mother today.

What I have't told you yet, is that ever since that "mistake" happened, I have been trying much harder to be kind to my mother. It was not just a product of remorse. It had been a wakeup call.
No, I'm not exactly the bitch I have been painting myself to be.
I am a good person. Somewhere.
No, it's what people saw in me. It was everywhere. That's why it was so tough. Because for a moment there, so hard, I thought I would never live up to all those expectations. People would see me, and think, hey, that's an ordinary girl-next-door who's never done big wrongs in her life. But all my life I've been striving for those extraordinary expectations, and this is what I've become. Who to blame? I have no one to blame. Not even myself.

"I just want you to know, want you to know, it's not your fault. It's not your fault."

Maybe.. I'm going to be okay? I don't know. Just. I guess, I have to try.
Hold on, I'm gonna go change the name of this blog now ;)
