Cheers To the Teenage Years

Cheers to the Teenage Years

Heartbreak and Sorrow, 
The complaining never ends
He never called you back 
And you're fighting with your friends

Partying and Hookups
Bullying and  Pain
Breakups and Name-Calling
Teachers driving you insane

Essays and Assignments
Drama and Boys
No more play-dough and snack time
No more barbies and toys

Learning life long lessons
Making hard choices and mistakes
Meeting the people who will stay in your life
Separating the real ones from fakes

Peer Pressure to look beautiful
Pressure to be that certain weight
Smoking weed and drinking hard
Telling yourself you've found your perfect soul mate

Spreading rumors and gossip
Secrets exposed to everyone around
Getting called names beneath other people's breath
Your world never felt so upside down

From laughing to happiness
To such sadness and tears
Everyone must go through it once
So let's raise a glass - "Cheers to the teenage years ! "

Thinking of You Everyday

I’m thinking of you every day. 
Wishing you will come back to me. 
Until I realize you’re really gone. 
I guess, God will only choose when we can be. 

Together again, 
I dream every day. 
Missing you so much, 
it’s so hard for me to say.

Sometimes God has disappointing ideas
I don’t know why he chose to take you.
You promised to walk with me down the runway, 
and have a dance that would just be me and you.

A daddy is supposed to always be there,
to support, and love his little girl, 
Until you were taken away from me, 
I feel like it’s the end of the world.

I really miss you daddy, 
Pictures are now all that I have
to remember the relationship we had.
With all the tears, and especially our last laugh.

I remember you when you got sick, 
I shed a tear almost every day, 
and than when I found out you were gone.
I wondered who would want to punish me this way.

Tears come for when I think, 
of all the promises you made, 
or the fun times we spent
like all the games we played.

I don’t think any of this makes sense.
I miss your comforting voice, 
but in the end I can't change what happened, 
because I guess God already made his choice.

I miss you Daddy, so much. 
I know you’re always going to be my angel.
I'm simply heartbroken, without you.
I love you always. 
Love,
Briyanna
xoxo

Depression

Depression

The feeling of sorrow coming from within
The feeling of sadness when you know you can't win

The feeling of anger when nothing goes your way
The feeling of loneliness when noone listens to what you have to say

The feeling of shatter when you're left all alone
The feeling of frustration when that person doesn't answer the phone

The feeling of confusion when you don't know what choice to make
The feeling of fear when you don't know the risk you're going to take

The feeling of pain when you have to let go
Something so dear to you, yet your feelings can't show

Depression is a sickness
That breaks you down inside
Where smiles are soon to be forced
And your sheets are full of the tears you cried

It takes away your happiness
Your cheerful spirit and soul
It hides your emotions way deep down
And the amount of pain cannot be controlled

It makes you close your eyes and wonder
Why your life took such a fall
And when you try to talk to someone
There is no one to call

You lock yourself up in your room
And hide yourself from the light of day
Wishing you could go back to being a child
When all the pain would be sent away

You want to go back to the day
Where goodbye only meant till tomorrow
When getting high meant on the swingset
And you never knew the feeling of sorrow

You miss the days when boys had cooties
And you took naps twice a day
Instead your locked up in your own miserable world
Throwing your days away

You wish Juice never became Alcohol
And kissing was never to be pushed towards sex
Where you never had any worry
And your life never seemed like such a mess

You miss the moment in time
Where fun came to you with no regret
When you'd ask people for lollipops
Instead of a light for your cigarette

People talk but you refuse to listen
You stay away from family and friends
You complain about how god treats you
And how this world never freaking ends

You think about where life has taken you
And you cry until you feel the pain
Until you realize that life has no meaning
And being here is just another stupid game

You've now chosen you've had enough
You have no more time to waste
You took too many of the wrong pills
And your pillow was the last thing you had to face

Now you're gone from your miserable world
Your body is being burried under the dirt
Your spirit is now off to heaven
Because down here, depression really hurts.

Empty Inside....

Why Did You Have to leave ?
So, So far away..
I thought you'd still be here,
Here with me to stay..
Without you I feel Empty Inside.

I never got to say Good-Bye
And now you're Forever Gone.
You would always kiss me goodnite,
and make me breakfast at dawn.
Without you i feel Empty Inside.

I don't know who to go to,
For those Big Daddy hugs,
I dont get to buy,
those " Happy Father Day Mugs.
Without you I feel Empty Inside.

I always came to talk to you
Now your never here,
To share birthday wishes, thanksgiving day,
and tons of Christmas Cheer.
Without you i feel Empty inside.

We have been through so much,
Through emotions of happy and mad,
But now since your gone,
i can be nothing but sad.

You were always the bestest daddy,
And i was always your little B.
Now hopefully you are up in heaven
Watching over me.
Without you I feel empty inside.

But Now I'm going to stop
And try my best not to cry,
Because i know i get emotional,
Knowing i have to say goodbye.

Empty Inside i feel.
When its my dad i need to call.
Because without you here beside me.
I cannot help but fall.
Without you i feel empty inside.


R.I.P Dad..
I love you forever and always.

XOXO.
Love,
Briyanna

Empty Apartment

My mind is lost in an empty apartment
Where I refuse to let anyone in
Where light does not shine and doors do not open
It's where my emotional self has always been.

I'm locked in this empty apartment
Where my silence is my loudest scream
Its where all my pictures fade away
And every happy moment is just a dream

I don't want to leave this empty apartment
Because here, only angels can hear my voice
Its where I go when nobody will listen
And everything is always my choice

Whenever I leave my empty apartment
Instead of a bridge, I build a wall
I put on a mask and say "I'm Fine"
And I never let that fake smile fall

Every night I return to my empty apartment 
So I can cry and let out my pain
So I can let my tears run slowly
And let the makeup on my shirt remain

In my empty apartment
I say what I want with no regret
I deal with problems my own way
And remember the things I've been told to forget

...And in my empty apartment
I constantly sit there alone
Look around at the closing in walls
And realize, I finally feel at home.
