Pain Is Silent

Your words don't have to be

Pain Is Silent
The silent pain

So I decided this week to share a poem. I made this poem because there has been a lot of controversy in this world with bullying and suicide. Some people say that someone killed their self for attention or that victims should just get over everything that is done to them. People don't get what words do to other people. They don't understand what someone goes through in a day. They definitely don't understand that hitting someone is not an option. So when I write I speak for everyone. Pain is silent, but words don't have to be.

They don’t trust you

They don’t feel how you feel

They don’t know what you know

They don’t heal how you heal

They don’t know the process

The guidelines to my brain

Not hip to my secrets

Or if pain is really pain

They come and they go

Trying to say that they care

But enough ain’t enough

Life’s a blank stare

They don’t know my direction

They don’t fear what I fear

They don’t know that I’m crying

They can’t hear what I hear

And just for second

Everything feels good

Then I realize I can’t win life

even when I should

The very few friends

Will think that I’m selfish

Cause when It all finally ends

They’ll know I was helpless

They might ask questions

Like why didn’t she talk?

My pain was silent

Tears running down the clock

They put me through a lot

They don’t know the fight that I fought

Beat down, broken, and bought

Yeah… I said bought

They don’t know you,

They don’t Feel you

They don’t Heal you

Bang bang, all they did was kill you

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Top 10 Lessons I Learned My Freshman Year

The first year of college opens your eyes to so many new experiences.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
