The worst feeling of all


                                                                                            is when you want to cry


                                                and yet shedding even one tear


              is impossible...

I Dream of Shipwrecks

You were drowning And I couldn’t save you Because our cell phones didn’t work Underwater. You weren’t looking for me Because you could not see. And you couldn’t breathe So you could not scream my name, So deep Underwater. I threw myself into the waves Trying to follow you into midnight fathoms. Tiny bubbles escaped my mouth and nose As I yelled to you Underwater. The calm silence below the surface Pressed against my ears, A clamp getting tighter With every desperate stroke of my arms. Seawater replaced your name In my mouth and lungs, And my muscles were ablaze. But I dove down once more In the hopes that I could

Save me

Save me from these padded white walls Save me from this from covered in blood of my friends and family Save me from this broken heart whose pieces i don't even bother to pick up anymore Save me from the monster inside me Save me from these vines that threaten to pierce my heart save me from death on skeleton wings spread high Save me from the razor that bites deep into my skin Bleed damn it I want it to bleed

Ghost of You

Down on my knees for you Begging please stop Picking the good out of me Heaving on the floor I need you But you're killing me I look in the mirror My reflection beckons back Who is she? Someone falling through the cracks, That you have made in her broken heart Someone begging on her knees for you to shut up Just a girl who wants to be beautiful Just running from the edge Into this world unknown Finding nobody, but the ghost of you...

Suicide

Suicide Take away the pain One rope One bullet One pill Can take it all away Take away the pain, Take away the scars, Take away the tears. Is it worth it? All this hidden within, My heart dying of wounds, How long till it ends. Can I end it today? Just one task, One fall, One vehicle, One knife, Can it end everything? I feel lost inside, My feelings locked away, My thoughts wondering, I feel like I'm not myself. Why do I live this way? Why was I even born? What is the point of my existence? I feel like a prisoner, A prisoner in my own mind, A prisoner in this world. Why was I born into this life? My eyes fill wi

The Girl Who Was Afraid To Be

She speaks to me fondly of passions and talents, of guitars and stars, with such breathless intensity then stops short and apologises for speaking at all. All because somewhere in her life, someone she loved broke her heart by ignoring her beautiful words and telling her to shut up, keep it down, nobody cares. People aren’t born sad. We make them that way.

My Worst Ememy

I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's me, but not me. She's the girl the world sees, Happy and always laughing, Always kind and polite, As friendly as she needs to be. That's not me. I'm sad and feel like crying, Kind to only the people I know and like Faking friendliness to strangers when I have to. I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's annoying with all she pretends to be. I want to be someone else. I'm tired of the constant fights with her, She always wins. So I take it out on her when I'm alone, And no one can stop me. I'm my own worst enemy, You see. Mentally beating myself up, At first, Try

Anorexia

'You're so skinny!' 'You don't need to lose weight!' 'You look great!' Lies…all lies. I know the truth. Too many pounds here, too many there. Hips, stomach, butt… I want it all gone. I need it to be gone. Eat less, exercise more…it's such a simple problem to fix. So I eat when I need to. Doesn't even need to be everyday. It's usually something small. Carrots, celery, a handful of nuts…It's just enough to get me through the day. You want to know my daily routine? Fine. I run a few miles everyday. It took some time to get used to it, but I had to adjust to reach my goal. No one else knows I do it. I wake in the wee h

Loving Those Who Overthink or Are Depressed

Loving Those Who Overthink, Are Depressed, or Hate Themselves (Or a Guide to Handling Your Cupcake) 1) No matter how many times it's necessary, argue. Every time they vent about how hideous, worthless, or moronic they think they are, fight it. Day in and day out, no matter how much they don't believe you, they still want to hear it. They need it, but they won't ask for it. Maybe once and a while you don't want to start a full on debate. Simply tell them, if they don't tell you, that you don't want to fight again. Just tell them they already know you think they are amazing and move on to talk about more pleasant things. 2) Try not to leave

It's how I've felt so often lately.... I wish I knew how to make it go away, but even if I did, I still have to act strong for those around me. They can never know that I'm a coward, nor can the see how weak I really am... Whether that's the reality or not, it's what I believe of myself, and always have.

But is it normal?
I can't shed an even tear

All I've ended up is not opening up to anyone. You try not to hurt anyone, make a new start,you sum it up internally and it backfires.
...
I have no words.
