Abash
what it actually means: to destroy self-confidence/pose; make ashamed.
what it totally should mean: a wicked bonfire that lasts all night and leaves its participants covered in soot and mildly embarrased by their drunken actions but moreso pleased with the raging-party legacy they're sure to leave behind for years to come.
lies
do you ever get the feeling that
everyone's lying to you?
do you ever get the feeling that
you aren't as good as everyone says you are?
do you ever get the feeling that
your life will never amount to anything?
do you ever get the feeling that
your words won't ever matter?
do you ever get the feeling that
your friends hate you?
do you ever get the feeling that
someone's trying to break into your mind
and steal the thoughts hidden there?
are you scared to go to the doctor like me,
because you've read too many news stories?
do you ever lie to protect someone,
and then find out that
they don't even know you exist?
do you ever get the feeling that
you have no talent?
you probably don't feel this,
because you have something.
i do, because i don't.
do you ever get the feeling that
they will trash talk you
about your insecurities, and say you're
doing it for attention?
that's what my friends and doctors and parents say.
they say i cut for attention,
they say i'm too scared to kill myself,
they say i'm weak,
not strong enough,
they say i need to accept failure.
but this is real life
and in real life
failure
isn't
a
fucking
option.
