You Still Loved Me

Even when I was nothing, 
You still loved me.

Even when I was broken
And choking on my pride,
You still loved me.

Even when I was sobbing
In front of a computer screen
At two in the morning,
You still loved me.

Even when I was out in a dark alley
Leaning against a wall
With my legs about to give out
And tears in my eyes,
You still loved me.

Even when I was a total jerk
And I talked about you behind your back
Because I was insecure
And heartbroken
And liked you more than I would admit,
You still loved me.

Even when I was staring in the mirror
My hands shaking
My eyes seeing nothing
My hands touching cold glass
My lips barely letting in breath
My ears not hearing anything anyone said to me,
You still loved me.


Even when I didn't love myself,
You still loved me.

    Bandaids for Bad Dreams

    I wish there were bandaids for all the cuts on my arm,
    but there’s no bandaids, because I can’t tell anybody
    that I’m bleeding.

    I wish there were bandaids for all my scars,

    Villain

    I tried to say hi to a girl yesterday
    Can you tell me why she was so afraid?
    I know I’m fine—not disfigured or two-faced
    I promise you guys that I’m perfectly sane.
    My teachers don’t seem to think I’m all there
  • Enough


    Isn’t it enough?

    Isn’t it enough for you
    That there have been 102 mass shootings
    In the past year?

    Isn’t it enough for you
    That most of them have been hate crimes
    And have gone unpunished?
