Diary Entry: 11/17/08


"I Must Not Tell Lies"
I cannot count how many lies I've told:
"I'm Fine."
"I'm just tired."
" He treats me well."

I cannot keep everything a secret. 
Lies will only lead to more sadness.
I will have too many secrets bottled up and I will never recover.
Recovery?
Interesting word. 
I'm getting better, but when will the pain be completely gone.

"I'm not sad"
"I don't care if people call me ugly."

I'll get home. Look in the mirror. 
First word that comes to mind:
Ugly. 
I think about the day, 
I don't remember being happy.
More lies.

" I always wear this wristband."
"I get cold easily, so I like to wear sweatshirts."
I'm making this obvious...
It's hard not to..
right?
Hopefully I'll get better at hiding it.
Or better, just stop. 

The biggest lie I've ever told:

"I would never cut myself"

The look on his face.
Heartbreaking.

His words:
"No, she wouldn't do that...would you?"
I tell him my secret.
Not a secret anymore, but it is safe with him

I'm trying hard not to do this.
I'll  repeat that moment in my head.
I'll write his name on my legs and wrists.
I don't want to hurt him anymore.

Excellent Auburn Jewel

Dear Washington, You consumed my joy yet you also added smile You stole my proof-- Proof that there is such thing as fate, that there is such thing as defeating one's fears, and meeting your wish, on the road to Damascus. Take care of my joy, my wish Take care of my Friend

Alone

Alone This has happened before, fighting on my own. Self-hatred and sadness, thin marks, and bruised bone. The urges still haunt me, I see red and relief  The pain still controls me, that old friend, a thief. Stealing my sanity, my strength, my progress My brush needs a canvas ,I'll gently  caress  I have missed you, master,  the love you have shown. Convincing and charming, making me feel alone.

Memories

Boxed up with a bow, gift beautiful, secure wrapped in soft cloth, feeling happy and sure. Now the tape is torn,not well kept together cut open with holes, tossed like a weak feather.  The gift is shattered, but remains in that box damaged, unworthy, weighed down by giant rocks.  Rocks that dent the shape, that was rebuilt so well admired gently, ringing praises like a bell.  Fixed way too quickly, ripped apart in pieces scattered everywhere, the burden increases. Swept up in one scoop, little noise to the ears. Swept up in one day, a gift wrapped for eight years. -Belle Rose
