For your poems.

I cant see how you without me could possibly make any sense.

written by almostgone

You dont understand how i felt that day when you grabbed my hand and assured me it was okay. I could do nothing but think about what we were about to do, wonder if you were nervous too. My thoughts overpowered everything and caused my brain to shut off. Then you took my innocence and whispered soft, “it wasnt how i pictured, wasnt how i planned.” I hurt my head trying to process what you had just said. Its been me by myself ever since then, my finger on the button ready to push send. I want to tell you all my feelings, worries, thoughts, and fears- […]

Where Are You?

by just listen
written by just listen

Here I lay,
Here I cry,
Is that the devil at my side?
If you wish
You can hide,
but don’t you dare die!
You are what’s keeping me here
So, please, stay near,
You are very dear
Without you, I’m cold,
I’m all alone.
If you diminish
I will be finished.
People don’t hear it,
You are my spirit.
Or maybe they do,
And they try to kill you.
But no matter the tears they bring,
You must sing!
Because I fear
When you aren’t here.

Get Lost [[[please read this, don’t pass it up, I only joined this site so I can share stuff with others, DUH :P]]

by lvhnky702
written by lvhnky702

You try and try again

But the pages keep filling themselves in

How ever much you want to change

Things will never be the same

And the pages keep filling themselves in

There’s no room to stop

With no choice but to get lost

Lost in the pages you help create

This is a book written in pen, you cannot erase

This is life and you’re only given time

Time to waste

And skip a few things

Miss a few words, misunderstand a few scenes

Get lost within the stories we all make

It’s just a big reality we all face

We’re forced to get to the end, but it’s not a race

Since the beginning, you get more pages each […]

Suicide note

by KateBell
written by KateBell

Hi guys…

I’m really struggling right now with a lot of stuff… according to my psychiatrist I’m “clinically depressed,” but I’m on meds and they aren’t helping. I hate myself more than anything else in the entire world. I self-harm (that’s what it’s called, right?)–cut my ankles so no one can see. I have wonderful family and friends who all care about me very much and who would be destroyed if I died, but I just can’t see any other option right now. Every minute of my waking life consists of making plans to kill myself… I just completed my suicide note (it’s a poem… am […]

consumable question

by tigerjk
written by tigerjk

Im lost. stuck / Have been for some time / I keep coming back / I fight it with all my might / but you cant stop the consumable / I was the other side a decade past / Asking, begging, pleading as to why / It wasn’t long till I got the answer / I wish I never asked.

One Stands In The Night

by smr1593
written by smr1593

She doesn’t know
How much farther
She can go
Before its all over.

 

She wants people
To notice her,
How far will she go
Before she will see the light.

 

She stands alone
Thinking of ways to go
Because she thinks
People don’t see her.

 

She realizes that
In this battle
Of life and death
No one is there for her.

 

As the light
Grows brighter
She sees the
End is near.

 

She knows what
She has to do,
All that’s left
Is saying good-bye

 

She closes her eyes
And counts to three,
And before she knows it
Her life is
Done.

 

She didn’t think
How this would
Affect the people
Who are around her.

 

She doesn’t realize
That those who
Look up to her
Are going to try this themselves

 

She didn’t know
That a seven year old
Would take the blame
Of this […]

Why Cry Now

by Nothin2Live4
written by Nothin2Live4

Why cry now

You never noticed me before

It’s too late now to claim you care

I’m six feet under

Silk-lined box and all

I banged and banged to get your
attention

But you never heard me

Never paid attention

Now that I’m gone you wonder

What you could have done

Well you could have done everything
you never did

But now you can start by walking
away

I’m no longer here

Don’t cry a tear

Because I no longer live in fear

I took your pain

And protected you

You never once thought that I needed
you

You weren’t there before

I don’t need you now

So please just walk away

Without a single tear

Because you never truly cared

Don’t fake it today

written by Nothin2Live4

The frigerator full of coke

The shelf full of rum

I go to bed and in my head,

I just know he’s going to come.

 

For my dear old Dad, has made me sad,

By playing house with me,

And you can bet, I can’t forget,

All the things he’s done to me.

 

For he’s robbed me of my purity,

And he’s stripped me of my pride,

He took from me my virginity,

And he ruined me inside.

 

It makes no sense my innocence,

Was forced to take a tragic fall.

I don’t know why but I know that I,

Have become my daddy’s doll.

 

I’m so confused for I’ve been abused,

And I don’t think he will stop.

It sounds absurd but […]

Porcalin

by Nothin2Live4
written by Nothin2Live4

And into the world stared these gleaming blue eyes

Which she saw past its dimension and only despised

This beauty she portrayed everyone had seen

But disguised sadness she made it serene

The greatest flaw that had filled her heart

Perfection only the beginning, just the start

With blonde fine long hair hit right beneath her
waist

Glass mirror she had feared she now turned to face

The pale white skin was now deep within her reflection

And enemy she had seen, with this girl had no
connection

Tears streamed down and began to hit the sink

Matched the blood that seeped now combining to
pink

Cutting she thought was her only escape

From the horrid memories of […]

BrOkEn AnD tOrN

by Nothin2Live4
written by Nothin2Live4

As I lie in bed at night

The door begins to squeak

Footsteps I hear creak

 

The bed goes down

With a climbing sound

As you begin to creep

 

You climb on top

The covers retract

Here you go make your move

 

Smashing fist

Bloodied face

Screams that pierce the room

 

Clothes come off

And there you go

The nightmare hits the road

 

Start to finish

As I scream

You just dig right in

 

The louder I scream

The harder you pound

And there seems to be no end

 

As the room begins to darken

The breathing comes to an end

Unconscious I lie once again

 

Wakened now by the sun

Glowing on my skin

Stinging feelings begin

It Won’t Be OK

by mdm10099
written by mdm10099

To let go

The mass – now too great to endure

Arms weary and swollen

Thwarting the barrier’s fall since birth

 

 Drained
limbs are lowered

Spirit broken

The partition falls

 

One last turn . . .

One last time. . .

One final gaze. . .

 

Leaving all that is good in the world behind

Stepping over the rubble of the once great wall

To the other side

Where the soil grows only indiscretion

And torment

 

If only . . .

Another rootless soul wanders along . . .

Places limbs upon the wall . . .

Allowing a brief […]

For my friend, a poem

by Titanstrong
written by Titanstrong

Sorry, I am not very creative, nor a good poet, but I wrote this for a friend, but will never send it, but I kind of wanted to so here it is.

 

 

If I weren’t so Naive,

I would believe,

that what is there,

isn’t just hot air,

and what I feel

Is actually real.

And I am more,

than just a chore.

But what I know,

is my life will flow,

and I will be gone,

before the next dawn.

Though what I seek,

is solved when you speak,

I cannot allow

what you have to fall,

because you are great.

And I am just more weight.

The truth is.

by Myimmortal
written by Myimmortal

The truth is once you get depressed, suicidal its.hard to turn to normal. People use the word normal like they know the definition, apparently idont fit that group. Truth is people are going to hurt you but got to have strength, for me ihave no strength, no mind and no hope. To everybody society actualy hates us and makes us feel bad about our self and tries to make each individual seem crazy, most take it well but for others like me well you get the picture… :/ Icould try to change but the truth is im staying the same !

The Diamond-Steel Heart

by ANobody
written by ANobody

Before, there was a time where words could reach to my heart, no wall, no nothing. But now, words can’t get past this cold, diamond-steeled heart that blocks it. Just try to break it. Even yours or my will can’t break it. The Diamond-Steel Heart, a cold and harsh place where everything is dead and no such thing as peace ever existed or EVEN heard of the word “Peace”. This heart is like a world that was worse than war and after 2012 combined itself. Words? HA! No such thing existed. You have to feel it to believe it. A new world that is literally […]

by helpless soul

It’s gettin harder each day to act like I’m ok.

I’m not.

I’m so tired of feeling like this, I want it all to end.

I can’t go on.

I wake up a and the feeling of dread washes over me like a tsunami of angst.

Upset I woke up at all.

This needs to end.

Night thoughts.

by Aitsjennifer
written by Aitsjennifer

At night is when thoughts unleash itself.
Small thoughts that turn into terrifying images that keep playing in your head.
Like a movie. A movie of all your mistakes, all your insecurities, and all your fears, mocking you.
You wish you could bury all those thoughts so they wont come back into your mind.
You lay there and cry. Your eyes then become worn-out from your tears. And you have that urge to pull out that razor.

Cyberspace and connections

by U.N. Owen
written by U.N. Owen

Some say that the proliferation of social networks is killing people’s interpersonal relationships.  I think it is taking them to another dimension.  I’ve never met any of you in person but I find myself worried abo many of you when I’m offline.  Hoping you are ok, hoping uyou are getting better, and for those who are decided hoping their end is painless and peaceful.

So many people here could be saved by the people in their lives just listening and being there. For someone to just hug them, support them, and justactually care.  I wish I could have an island and just bring all of you […]

Endings

by U.N. Owen
written by U.N. Owen

The darkness of life,

The brigthness of death,

Life’s excruciating pain,

Death’s soothing pleasure,

Life’s long term toil,

Death’s eternal rest,

Life’s confusing uncertainty,

Death’s confirmed state,

The confinement of life,

The freedom of death,

The caustic acid that is life,

The healing balm that is death,

Life’s sour holding,

Death’s sweet release.

Guilt trips. Comparison.

by U.N. Owen
written by U.N. Owen

It is funny how when people are upset about their issues, one of the main responses they are given is a comparison to people who are considerably worse off by objective comparison.

Nobody brings up people who seem to be considerably doing better by a similar comparison. 

The motive behind it is understandable, yet since this is a world with no gurantees and one can only control ones actons and thoughts to a limited extent after one is born, why shoul one feel guilty for being born in a country where poverty is less of a problem than say a third world country.

Why should one feel guilty […]
