Love According To A Young Girls Heart

Love can be blinding
it can make you see the world in a whole new way
make you walk with your head in the clouds
or have you falling hard

it can be the most amazing experience in the world
where you see beauty in every corner
or feel deep sorrow of a broken heart
that still manages to love the one who broke them with all the little pieces

But however confusing it is no one can ever fight the feeling
no matter how hard they try
its a part of the human experience
to feel affection towards another
although painful at times
true love is the only thing that shall never deceive you

and although when heartbroken and feeling alone
another seems to walk into our lives
and we realize y things happened this way
and that there is a reason for your pain

its just gods way of helping you grow stronger
and wiser
for us to realize when the one for us walks into our life
so no matter how much life gets you down
don't give up hope ,
its just another heartbreak closer to happily ever after .

The Cut

There she is...
On the bathroom floor...
With a blank look on her face...
and some kind of music in the background....

She looks at the blade...
So shiny and new...
takes it in her delicate hands...
hesitates for only a moment...

Pressing it to her leg...
Where she would be able to hide it...
where none would see...
she presses hard...
and pulls towards her...

The blood does not gush out like in the movies...
in fact, it almost seems to hesitate to come out...
then seeming almost timidly comes out...
as if unsure what awaited it outside...
as if afraid to venture out...

But the pain...
the rush of pain hits her...
It was as if a bolt of lightning...
as if electricity was coursing through her body...
had hit her...
She finally feels something...
She is finally no longer numb...

The pain brings out the adrenaline in her...
the blood comes out as if escaping her body now...
she can only look at it coming out...
she felt content, yet ashamed at what she had done...
carving on herself like that...

There were times that she felt nothing...
she wanted nothing...
she needed nothing...
she only wanted a release...
a release from the pain that is life...
but it never came...

She hated herself for doing it...
yet she liked the feeling of feeling...
the numb feeling had overtaken her so long...
that she had forgotten how it felt to feel...

She knew she must tell someone...
she knew she must call for help...
yet she did nothing...
no one would come...
she was alone...

Finally, she pulled herself up...
walked to the shower...
cleaned it all off...
and wiped the blood up...

As she was cleaning her would...
and thought about the scar it would leave...
she noticed she had written something...
she had unknowingly written a word...
a feeling...

The word...
the feeling...
the thought...
she had written...
JOY...
