Sometimes tears feel like broken glass
Like pushing a gem out of my eyes
Causing them to scratch and burn
Causing my vision to blur
And my lashes to wet
Sometimes the gems that are tears fall and shatter
Like the first drop of rain on the pavement that is my bathroom floor
Soon causing a puddle of shimmering diamonds
There's beauty in the sad
And pain in the beauty

This one is different,
on the inside it’s a quiet forest reaching up toward a warm, pastel sky.
After a few moments I get this floaty feeling in my stomach and I feel like I’m being lifted into the sky.
Something inside me hesitates.
I squeeze my eyes shut to block the feeling out.
It hurts to look at this forest and this sky, because deep down, I know they’re not real. The tears come.
I try desperately to be quiet but, being incapable of it my voice is getting a nervous high pitch to it

There are consequences to every choice.
You made the wrong choice

It's like I feel restless,
My thoughts racing but at the same time nothing is happening.
I'm just surrounded by silence in the dead of night.
The only sound is my keyboard as I type out this poem,
Hoping it will reach you.

I don't want to take meds for depression
Adding another component to my ****** up brain is only going to be stressful.
What if I dont take it?
Will everything feel worse?
Will my mind and body become so reliant on these stimulants that I wont know what different emotions feel like?
The "Happy" that ill be feeling will only be a temporary man made lala land.

I'm afraid that one day my broken pieces will end up cutting, and bruising you, to the point that you just walk away/

I think I need help,
No
I know that I need help
But I am supposed to be the strong one,
The one who helps others through tough times.
How can I help others if I can't help myself?
I don't want help,
Because it will show others my weak points
It will show them my hurt,
And give them every chance in the world to hurt me more.
So I'll throw my feelings away
For those who need help

Im Tired of trying
Im Tired of crying
Im tired of you lying
Im tired of listening and being gullible
Im tired of trying to be sensible
Im tired of being inaudible

It feels like some inescapable thing,
Is trying to replace my heart
Before it knows how to beat on its own

Its funny how slowly time goes by
when my mind has been racing
all this time
