16/M I use poetry to process and understand my emotions. This is for me not for you, you are guests here be respectful.
A broken tree bearing fruit Hidden beneath a crumbling home, Where a dead man sits in a rotted chair, Breathing in quiet gasps.

The Other Side
Catching sunlight in my hands, Burned and scarred by searing brands. While cherry petals fill the air, My joy, a diamond a brightly burning flare. I cradle my meager golden prize, And lift the gilded treasure to my eyes. To see the memories I have made Over lost years and forgotten days. A spark catching in my heart an unquenchable blaze. A light through the endless dark of life

Like flowers in Spring
You, a monster, you're not really human. People feel compassion- Do you even know what that is? Is it just another thing you think doesn't exist? You walk, you talk, you laugh, you smile, but I know what's behind your eyes. When you take from this world another part of me dies. I hate you with every bone in my body, every part of my soul. Life is not a toy to be taken and tossed- My life, his life, her life, gone. Left a shell, a broken vessel abandoned for the carrion crows. But now I see standing is this mirror hating the monster for what it did. While knowing when my angel died, The monster was laughing deep inside. Hesitantly I pick up the knife For the the angel’s sake I will take its life.

From My Brokenness
To die Kiss life goodbye A fatal waltz with death Run feet and wings afire until You burn.

Living for just a moment
Trapped in this floating glass mountain of a box Unable to see out despite a thousand eyes This is insanity This my broken reality Light shrieking as they streak across the sky The screaming voices whisper A life lived only in the light is not a life My shadow hates me I hear him plotting Always watching and following I’m running chased by a lie that tells a truth i do not with to hear I pass the door again and again but I cannot leave The sheep languished blue trains suffer Windows books dogs hands run Take sharpness filling soda cans This is insanity

Insanity
A spring forms a river, Far from the sea, The water starts to flow I smile, because I know, This river is meant for me. The spring is the ocean, A deep crystal blue surrounding, drowning me Then falling off, into eternity I have not forgotten you. The river is salt But gives life to a tree, That tree is my heart Let the river depart Then walk with me. Through life to death Let’s start anew Dry your tears And discard your fears I will never leave you
