"I'm trying
to feel safe
inside.
My body
doesn't feel like mine.
I look at who I am.
I think I fear her."

“halsey’s poetry is so shallow” okay you try taking care of a partner with a drug problem and then read lighthouse and tell me it’s shallow

Guts
"I got this bad habit
where I don't think before I speak.
I fall in love like every week.
I keep a pistol when I sleep
inside my mouth
so I don't fight my tongue
for saying all these things,
like how I saw you in my dreams."
- Halsey, I Would Leave Me If I Could

it is not a desire
it is a clenched jaw and an aching back and a disposition to spite everything around you
you are asking to be shot square in the head you know not what you seek

Been biting my tongue till it bleeds
cry over things I don’t need.
My mother told me
pick your battles wisely
but you made me angry
at the world
so I chose them all.

Not The Fun Girl
I’m not the just the fun girl
I’ve tried to be the “lead him on” girl
But it felt wrong
I can’t be the “watch me flirt” girl
Because I’m the “have your fun and come home” girl
The “I’d rather not sleep alone” girl
But “I will until I find you” girl
The “give you all my love and more” girl
The “writes you poems in the dark” girl
The “I want you to know I care” girl
The “please text me when you made it home safe” girl
I know I’ve presented myself as the “heart on my cheek” girl
But I’m more of the “hold me when you sleep” girl
The “hope I’ll be enough” girl
Because guys would rather have the fun girl
-Athena
