oh my god, we're not gonna make it || to be flawed

make me a promise here tonight

promises.
why make a promise you can't keep?
why swear to do something
and let someone trust you
when you're just gonna breach that trust?
why bother?
why would you wanna hurt someone like that?
does that please you?
does it make you happy to see someone break down
and feel nothing but absolute crap about themselves?
what do you get out of it?
when you strip someone bare of everything they are;
of everything they thought they were
are you going to be happy as long as i'm not?

then go ahead.

sharpen your teeth and bite as hard as you want

i hope you're happy then
i hope you're happy knowing you're the reason for someone's scars
i hope you're happy knowing that you're the reason someone's starving herself
i hope you're happy knowing someone didn't sleep last night because the demons, the one you planted in her head, scream her every flaw
i hope you're happy knowing she can't find a reason to be happy anymore
i hope you're happy knowing you probably killed that girl

to have the nerve,
the audacity to tell someone to
"get over it"
is just something else all together
it's like pushing someone off a cliff and telling them to stop falling
it's like dangling food in front of a starving child and telling them to stop looking

she's not gonna make it
if you keep doing what you do
if you keep pushing her
shoving her around
and provoking her
none of them are
not that girl you laughed at
not that girl you joked about her weight
not that girl you called ugly
not that girl you called emo

maybe it slipped by you that she's hurt. maybe you forgot she has feelings too. maybe you're forgetting that it she knows her flaws. maybe you don't know how hollow she feels. maybe you don't realise how puffy and red her eyes are when she comes to school every morning. maybe you don't realise how much weight she's suddenly losing. 

NONE OF THESE JUSTIFY ANYTHING

this post was kinda sudden
a teensy bit reflective based on...
well, certain people
because everyone deserves to be reminded that they are beautiful.
