fallen

I did this really stupid thing called falling in love. Peoples parents do it all the time The way they described it seemed so joyous But it's not so great after all. I fell in love. But the person I fell for didn't catch me. I fell into a pit of disparity​. And landed on nails I think they were labeled loneliness. Then the person I fell for helped me up But they dropped me I guess my emotions were to heavy I ended up being stabbed in the back By broken glass but they had heart written all over them in sharpie. I hesitantly took the person's hand again and they helped out of the deep hole They held me tight and rested their hand over my heart I felt something dig into me

Mentally Ill

I'm happy and depressed Mad and sad Lonely and suffocated Wanting to cry but to aware of the fakeness of these tears Wanting to thrash around but staying as still as a statue Afraid of living but tired of dying This is my cry for help Because I'm unable speak up Always showing a smile but speaking violently Hating my thoughts but loving my opinions Scared of the dark but i fell for the black space that surrounds me I'm as silent as a mouse while i scream for help at the top of my lungs Please help me let me solve my own problems I'm not bipolar my emotions are always together A marriage of 4 that never divorces Breaking me into one piece

My mind

My brain is numb My body soar My stomach twisted And I'm left paralyzed Sitting in this darkened room they call my mind Faulty accusations and realizations Words stuck in my Replaying like a broken record The days are the same My plans never change Still alone with my brain and the haunting memories My screw ups playing like a playlist

Importance

Why am I important to you? The question runs through my head Starting marathons it'll never finish Because the conclusion remains the same I am important to no one Give me a reason Ill find a flaw Render a task "Only I can do" Ill seek a replacement Now can you give me a reason why I'm "important" That's correct Silence is all you give me It's the truth.

Alas

– Spread your sandy voice over me, under me The branch is crushing my body Black mulberries are crushing her body Those chanting hoo, hoo are crushing her body Salt is crushing her body Fever is crushing her body – Sprinkle your sandy voice over me, under me The road is crushing my body Quinces are crushing her body Those chanting ah, ah are crushing her body Breeze is crushing her body Stealth is crushing her body – Scatter your sandy voice over me, under me The hand is crushing my body Reeds are crushing her body Those chanting hey, hey are crushing her body

<Divorce>

Like hollowed earth, being; Like a broken instrument; The visits and the revisits To the same places Same spaces To fight memory. Like a mountain storm, Like the night winds shivering Like December forever and ever. Like rocks under a waterfall Blue birds and more Always there, disappear Stings Like a pancreatitis attack Like a life gone wrong Like a song about a gong

Moon.

That name brought life in me,like the moon fills the darkness with beauty.Oh darkness,the more you exist,the more I can see the stars that I love so much.The more you spread,the brighter the moon is that I'm in love with. She was like the moon.But brighter,colourful. But like the moon,there was a side she never showed.A young soul,filled with kindness,in a world asking for her hatered.A rebelious,trembling mess of stars.Through the ruins she made flowers grow. Oh young soul,how much blood have you spilled for other's happyness?How many times have you knelled down acheing for their safty,brave one?How many times have I wished for your return,my friend? Are you a star,my soul?

It's my turn to take on the world now.

And you looked so peaceful when you slept. Unbothered and untouched. Letting all the emotions of days and weeks and years fade away slowly, until what was left was just.. You. You, in your purest form. No war. No grief. Just calming, deafing silence. And how I loved to see you like this. How I'd love to have this memory encraved in my mind. If I could never forget it, I'd hold it forever behind my eyes. But my eyes never layed upon you. And every day, I forgot more about you, little by little, more and more. And still, every day it felt like I remembered you more than yesterday. How I'd love to always remember you. I would rather die than let you be forgotten.

2O.

2 of October. 2 of October and I'm still here. 2 of October and my heart hasn't healed yet. 2 of October and it seems like not a single day has passed. The weather is getting cold,and I get to remember.I get to feel this freezing breeze down my spine every year,to this day. I get to remember and travel back instead of looking forward.I get to see that no matter how much I've tried I can never really let go. Maybe I'll leave it for next year,just like any other year.Maybe healing needs more time,or no time at all for me. I wish I could change,but I can't. God,what would she think of me now?

Im sorry.

Maybe I shouldnt have said "hi" maybe I shouldnt have said "how are you?".Maybe i should have never let my name escape my lips. Maybe just because im who i am,i should have never met you.Im sorry. Im sorry for all the times i tried to be there,but i failed. Im sorry for every time i told you about me,and failed you. Im sorry i tried to keep things going with us,and i failed. Im sorry im the way i am. Im sorry,for this is what i do,what i always say,what i always feel.Asking for forgiveness. Maybe i should just be with myself,for i was taught that people stay in your life,and eventualy,i got abandoned.Ommited. Im so sorry i bothered you,maybe in the end im just a waste of space and time.

Blood

Its not like you could control it,I understand.I know you wanted to go,to feel with all your heart the kindness.I know. But sometimes,I wish I had said goodbye,you know. I wish I had at least said something,and the fact that I remained silent made my blood boil. I still wish...you had come back. I wish I had the chance to take your place.

She

She was beautuful,like the revolution. I could feel my skin getting dry,my soul coming to life when she speaked. She was absolute,all or nothing. She could make you tremble with love and respect.She loved beyond measure,she hated so little. She had the power to make them all fall to their knees,begging.Yet,she chose not to.She chose to stay silent,teaching them.She spoke her mind,everyone else's happiness was more important than hers to her,she wanted a new world,she dreamed it,hell she fought for it.She wanted everything for it..but settled for nothing. Even calling out her name makes my soul shiver with pain. Her name was peace.
