I was always alone

I was always alone... I was always silent... I was always broken... When you reached out your hand and told me "it's okay", I was never alone... The dimples on your cheeks made my small heart open up to you... The bright look in your face astonished my cold soul... I fell in love with you... I fell in love with your deep, shallow eyes which reflected the deep ocean of your own thoughts... You shook off my hand, Told me to leave... I was left alone... I was left empty... For the love which I had made me tremble in fear... I was always alone... Always silent...

Dad

Feet tremble, gravel claws in Cheek soaked to the bone in salt All alone Late summer heat fills my pores Hope in my heart with every noise That you've come To apologise, to bring me home The time never comes Stomach rolls, begs, as the sun greets me once again It's okay, I still love you dad

pretty girls like you

They press and poke Better not let anyone see you cry Don't feel those emotions Apparently pretty is all im supposed to be No one wants to see a pretty girl like you show emotion Pretty girls like me don't feel so pretty

Standing at my death bed

if i was to die tomorrow I'd want my last day to be with you the sadness i feel without you seeps into the cracks slithering through my muscles making my bones shake so if i was lying on my bed of death I'd want you by my side to make the void disappear only you

You-white butterfly

I saw you again today. You were sitting on the red roses that I planted for you. Is red roses still your favourite? You still had your you-white color, not too yellow and not too white, just your perfect you-white. You look so pretty. I knew you had to leave sooner or later, but I wanted you to stay. I've really missed you. You flapped your wings, so I said Goodbye, and watched you fly away. For now, never, and forever, Goodbye.

Promises I

I promised myself that I would push myself out of bed, so I did. I pomised myself that I would go outside, so I did. I promised myself that I would make new friends, so I did. I promised myself that I would never hurt my friends, but I did, And they didnt keep their promise either, so I promised myself to never make new friends. I promised to never go outside again. I promised to never leave my bed again. But no one actually keeps their promises right?

Darkness

Sitting in the cold ink like darkness The sound of clouds crying can be heard outside Staring into the void Looking for answers Hoping for solace Hoping for freedom Residing in the emptyness Staring at the closing void Sitting on the cold floor Clock ticking past 11 Silence fills the space No words are said Once again staring into the darkness Looking for answers Finding only a boy Scared and alone.

Fall

The leaves fall in orange haze Dazed and confused I drown in the pool How much longer must I fall in the deep end before I get out How much longer must I swim closer to drowning than climbing The bottom is solid void of life My raisin hands lack moisture My raisin body lacks soul The more I lie the closer I get to the casket Longer Nights Longer Hours slept Less time awake Closer to the soft hands of death Cradled like my mother Wondering when I decided it was time to get out

Grey days

Grey days. Bleak silence. Rushing wind. Hushed murmrs Cold filter. Colourless vegetation. Clouded skies. Blocked sun rays. Lacking warmth. Bleak silence.

X Chance

I was scared so I closed my lips. Now regrets are haunting me, Whispering the words I left unsaid.

Feed Me Your Lies

Your lies were the sweetest, And your smiles were fake. I am aware—you are a liar, Yet I kept begging for more.

Barely Breathing

My heart decayed a long time ago But its remains refused to disappear. It stayed deep inside of me, I am dead yet existing.
