When you grow up constantly being told that you’re not adequate and so you end up being a huge overthinker with very low self-esteem.

Why do I only write when I’m sad?

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

I wish I wasn’t born into a family where I had to constantly try to prove myself to get their approval.

Cause here I am, in my late 20’s, always looking for my worth from other people’s opinion.

And it’s so damn tiring to be feeling like this all the time.

You cover your mouth as you try not to let a sob escape your lips so he won’t notice, but darling, he heard you.

You pull your sheets over your head to hide your tears as he walks over the bed, but darling, he saw you.

You try not to scream and shout all the pain you’re feeling cause you don’t want him to see you crumble, but darling, he knew you.

Darling,

he knows,

he hears,

he sees,

but sadly, he just doesn’t care.

If I had known that loving you meant losing myself, then I wouldn’t have started.

being mentally ill is so tiring even when you’re not doing anything like damn I’m just sitting here and my brain wears me out

And so she got tired of asking

And asking

And asking

Him how to love her

Now, he lost her.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

I could tell you everything that has been going wrong about us lately and you still wouldn’t care.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

I guess the most terrible way to miss someone is when they are right there beside you and yet, it feels like they aren’t.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

Sometimes I ask myself, “Were you ever truly happy?”

[abuelitalesbiana]

i wonder what its like to get upset without getting suicidal

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

I wonder how we got here. We used to get lost in each other’s eyes, but now, we barely make eye contact.

I wonder how we got here. You used to be all over me before, but now, you don’t even reach my side of the bed anymore.

I wonder how we got here. We used to laugh our hearts out over the silliest stuff we do or say, but now, no one speaks a word unless we’re shouting endlessly at each other.

My love, I fucking miss us everyday and I wish things could have been different, but more than that, I wonder if you also wonder how we got here.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

Take me to a place where I can forget everything that's going on in my life.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

I just want to drown the voices inside my head. It's as simple and as difficult as that.

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

If what you have for me is really love, then why can’t I feel it?

[permanent-ink-and-paper]

It scares me, a lot. Because I don’t think I see myself in your future anymore.
