Why does everything feel like it's crashing down? my whole being dissipating into tiny dust particles searching for a place to fall soundlessly I'm dying my body is still here my mind is gone but to where? astray from this beat up shell sick and tired disassembled and abused by me

I did this to myself
I won't let you win I won't let you rip the pride out of my chest I won't let you make me feel like I'm any less than of a being since the day you contaminated my body and my thoughts the day you made me feel like an empty abyss alone within the universe searching for my meaning a meaning I once found but you pushed it out of reach drifting away slowly right at my finger tips you made me question my sanity and weaken the strength I wear as armor you won't win I'm going to flourish like the elegant blossom I've always been

eviction
I just wanna be something you don’t have to run from I saw you and all your intentions paving the road to heaven And I swear I'm trying to give up these ghosts It's just every time I smile in a millisecond I'll frown And I don't mean to drown these cylinder blocks are keeping me engulfed it's hard to talk with liquid in my lungs You dared me to be myself more than I think anyone ever has that's why it hurts so ******* bad when you're sad I could go searching for your laughter forever don't let your light go out Let's vanish into thin air together

flooded emotions
The rain hit me            dragging my feet in the wet soil          It seems the woods embedded me like my dreams      A small brown cabin        mass implanted it       fractured windows                                 as it appeared in front of me                                   some sense of suspense                                      ran through my veins I felt home Rain drizzled down my coat Approaching the door maybe this is what I needed the ease I felt within my bones The woods whispered “This is your home” I melted into the earth saturating into the dirt formulating into sticky mud This is where I belonged all along

woods
when my palms are starting to sweat i think about the warmth of your laugh echoing through my head and it starts to soothe me i don't know how to explain it but im scared one day you'll think every room is dark with me inside it

isn't it ironic that the only things that come back come to **** you? every time i dream i see the house i once grew up in i wouldn't call it a home because i didn't feel safe there the only difference is i see it for what it really was my own personal hell embodied with memories that were meant to stay memories surrounded with flames the stench of death so intolerable your nose would crumble just by one inhale bruises on my arms from the man who claimed to be my father an empty bottle of whiskey that was ingested within minutes a hole in the wall from the belligerence for what it seemed to me to be a battlefield i was only twelve and my imagination was at its peek and everyday was a survival game the only problem was i wasn't begging for my life i was begging for my end i saw so many things i wasn't supposed to see the blood shed and the tears seemed unbearable for me the nights of getting on my knees praying to a god i hoped existed how did it get so bad this wasn't only a dream this was once my reality
