PRETTY EYES AND A HEARTBEAT

The Ballad of me and my brain.

[boundtotheballad-blog]

My grief is my own; it is my burden to bare, my weight to carry and my nuisance to end.

Silence is louder.

And I want you to find me,

Please don't leave me in the dark.

I can feel you holding your breath from over here, when do you think it will be the right moment to breathe again?

I got out of my head,

but I don't like it outside.

I am different to what I was then, but I'm not sure wether I'm better or if I've lost sight of who I really am.

I lost myself when I helped you find yourself.

You're a single wildflower growing from a crack in the pavement.

Maybe I lived my life to well, Maybe I started to young, Maybe I shouldn’t have slept with him, Maybe that first drag was wrong, Maybe that last shot wasn’t a good idea, Maybe drugs do damage, Maybe not doing homework led me to fail my classes, Maybe leaving home meant leaving something behind.

Maybe I should’ve listened?

Don’t beg for someone to stay, your heart should feel like a freely given home not a prison cell.

Don’t do anything that leaves you empty for the attention of someone who isn’t worth yours.

He broke her heart so now she’s throwing words around like;

“I’m done being hurt, I don’t feel anything anymore and I honestly don’t care.

And I’m going to kiss a lot of boys.”

My silence is misjudged and seen as lack of personality, when my true intentions lie in the observation of others.

Self-help;

. Get out more, if only for an hour than great. That same night when you lie in bed you will feel like you have accomplished something.

. ANSWER loved one’s messages, even when they are such a BORE.

. Stop making excuses when someone asks you to go out, fellow human interaction is good for the soul.

. Limit use of Laptop, Tv and books… yes books! There is a life beyond pages, you just have to go live it.

. Don’t dwell on the past, it’s not going to help you in the future.

. Stick to the Five-Finger rule, if you can’t count all your close friends on one hand it’s time to make some cut backs. No one has the mental capacity to please more than five friends.

. Last but not least, you are only human you have flaws, but those flaws are what make you YOU.
