Sing me to sleep
Till I’m pale and white
Drain the pain and sorrow away
That have become my life
I’m drowning in my misery
Lost in depression
These blades are my secret
My only protection
From reality setting in too deep
Shrouding me in darkness
As I lie in bed and weep
Life should be better,
I should be perfect
What’s the point in getting better
If no one thinks I’m worth it?
Tell me I’m stupid for doing this to myself
Or that I’m just plain crazy and you won’t give me any help
But all the words in the world still won’t […]

Our worlds are parallel

I feel you next to me

In all my yesterday’s

And every memory

Bent but never broken

Our circles stay aligned

Linking in symmetry

Becoming intertwined.

I’ll always follow you

Just as day follows night

Walking through the darkness

As you walk through the light

Diverging from this life

Upon your suicide

Waiting for tomorrow

And our hearts to collide

Whilst breathing in today

Each moment that you gave

Until we meet again

Through love beyond the grave

Memories like ghosts haunt my being
A past from which I’m ever fleeing

A heart so scarred it shouldn’t pump
Icicles flowing through my veins
A child worth as much as trash in a dump
A walking set of cold remains.

Heart of ice shattered to pieces,
The same blood it pumps it freezes

Quite alive, yet quite dead
I cried so long my eyes turned red.

I look back and ask why,
Why do some live while others die?

Is it a privilege or a penalty?
Why was it him and not me?

I have no beautiful words

Because I am not a beautiful

Person inside or out.

So what use am I?

I will never be loved

Let me go.

Let me die.

In the darkness I find myself,
Grappling  up the walls of hell.
Clawing, kicking not a sound,
Don’t want to involve those around.
Though some might grab a rope,
In my silent darkness I grope.
Looking for the next tiny ledge.
A place a finger or toe to wedge.
And pull myself from hell’s tight grasp,
The silent climber for air does gasp

My muscles ache, my fingers bleed.
My heart is broken, yet still I heed
That little voice inside my head,
“You must press forward, you are not dead.”
My tired body threatens to give out
Not a whimper much less a shout.
I can’t risk it, no I don’t dare
My true feeling to ever air.
For if they found […]

Today, I told my friend that I had lost all confidence and could no longer take pleasure in things. My friend told me that it was all in my head and that I should cheer up.

Today, I told my friend that I lie awake at night and wish that I wouldn’t wake up in the morning. My friend told me to stop bringing them down.

Today, I told my friend that I cut. My friend told me that I was doing it for the attention.

Today, I told my friend that I was afraid I might do something stupid. My friend told me to stop being such a drama queen.

Today, […]

I’ve never written poetry. I don’t even know if this counts as poetry, or just sentences that sound a little similar lol.

Tell me what you think.

“While I sank into the darkness of midnight, I forgot what light was.

While I sat in the bitter, relentless cold, I forgot the feeling of warmth.

While I submitted to the silence, I forgot how to sing.

While I suffered from the raging waves, I forgot happiness.

While I stood in the heavy, never-ending rain, I forgot how to smile.

While I soaked among lies and deceit, I forgot what truth was.

While I starved and withered of hunger, I forgot fullness.

While I […]

I wonder what the tree may say… 

By Me, But Who gives A Shit

I wonder what the tree may say,

if I were to sway

Everyone thinks I’m as strong as can be,

but I’m not even as strong as a honey bee.

Sometimes, from time to time,

I think of things that can rhyme.

If I were to be away,

the world would go by day to day.

Even though I look okay,

you do not know my dismay.

If you do, your to late,

because I’m about to clean my slate.
