Almost | The Odyssey Online

STOP. What are you doing? You're fucking up. You're being so stupid. Stop falling. Don't!

Ignore the butterflies, ignore the fluttering in your chest, ignore the fuzziness in your brain when he kisses you.
He won't ever love you, no one can love you like that! Stop what you're doing RIGHT NOW!
Stop thinking about him nonstop, stop looking forward to his texts, stop caring so fucking much! What if he decided he doesn't care anymore?
STOP! You stupid, hopeless girl!
I, am a victim of failed almosts.
My first love tore me to shreds and because of that, I am too scared to have someone put me back together.
I always back away, so far, so they can't hear me crying. Crying over an almost that could've been an everything, only if his words would stop replaying themselves throughout my head.
"No one will love you."
"I found someone else."
"I don't care anymore."
See, my thoughts are my worst enemy, warping words, pixelating promises, fragmenting feelings, butchering butterflies.
Help me, I'm scared.
But what the fuck does it mean if you're scared to lose someone you've only known for a month.
This person that you don't want to go home, after a date, because you can't get enough of them, yet scared to drink them in entirely, because what if they're poison and you don't realize it until it's too late.
Dear God, I'm scared.
My brain needs to get it's shit together before it's too late and I'm dying with an empty heart.
Dear Brain, please stop being so harsh, I don't deserve it.
Dear Heart, don't stop beating for someone just because someone else says so.
Dear partner, mate, boyfriend, girlfriend, forgive me... I'm trying.


There it was! I will not be blocking hate, because I don't seem to care about it. I'm accepting all comments, all criticism whether it is rude or not, and suggestions!

I will probably only post poems and excerpts from my novels. I really do not know what else I would post.

Last thing, if you'd like to read my poems and/or novels, feel free to follow my Wattpad. I do have them posted along with some more things I've written that I can't really fit into a category.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
