15/F/In a galaxy far, far away I struggle with Schizophrenia and childhood trauma. I have CPTSD, depression, and anxiety. PLEASE don't treat me like a charity case because I get enough of that. I am just here to vent... and maybe make some friends... I'm lonely.
Sometimes I think about dying in my sleep Working up a way so that they won't be ashamed of me Instead of strung up by the ceiling fan maybe I could go in peace Then I wonder what kind of note I'd leave Saying don't blame yourself this is how it had to be The days drag on and the blood becomes a coursing stream The blade slips from my fingers being the end of me Because a bullet to the brain would be too gruesome for them to see The lines spell out **** me please" It's all ruined now life just isn't worth living So please just ignore me Try to block out my loud depressed weeping The pills make it worse and therapy isn't helping I don't wanna die but this is what became of me What the voices in my head are telling me to be So now I promise I'm not gonna leave Because death is too easy The real challenge is living So I'll live but only because I love you

I promise
She falls into the grasp of his hands The ground crumbles as she stands Her life is nothing but broken glass The air is toxin and love is a gas mask She breaks beneath the sound of his voice The constant regret of her naive choice Her world is gone with all she loved The constant question of am I enough She burned for the bullet in her chest The shame brought to her family crest Her name is now a word unspoken The damage of a heart remaining broken She feels the sharp pain of needles piercing The pain that draws her to endless screaming Her chest a blaze as she feels it all The blisters and pus continue to scald She falls to her knees praying to be free The dream ends and she wakes from her sleep Her heart still pounding and she's covered in sweat The cuts in her skin she will never forget

Night terror
Suddenly nothing else mattered You were there Your charm and humor Suddenly I was ok I used to watch as they walked all over me Now I realize I don’t deserve to be used I am worth sacrifice You give me your time You call me yours You aren’t ashamed To be seen with me To hold me Out in the open You stand up for me When they stare and laugh I feel safe next to you I don’t know how long this will last But I have issues and I have to ask That you don’t use them against me I don’t wanna jump all over you But please don’t use it against me I hope you see I’m just scared Hurt by way to many I trust you Don’t abuse that I love you Please don’t try to use that My wrists are healed I don’t want to reopen it You fixed me If you ever wanna leave Let me down easy I’m sorry if this scares you I don’t wanna hurt you I just want you to know what you’re getting into Because what happens When hands get put on me More than you know This is a warning

You
Save me and **** me Hurt me and heal me So priceless yet so tasteless Why is this love They tell me it's emotion Others say action Attitude and beliefs Love is affection they say Do they really know Does anyone To love To live To even breathe It's all so hollow without a reason I mean think Really think Can you honestly say that you know This world is turning and no one cares It's moving and breathing But they don't notice My questions fill my brain Of what Why, how, when Tell me this When was the last time you said I love you and meant it Or have you once said I would live for you Because dying is to easy When I say I love you I say it with every fiber Every amount of my being I would live for you Because that's the challenge Dying is not the point of living Dying is the end of it Where they remember you Only for a short while Then you are just Earth Beneath their feet Walked on A vessel no more Only dust So tell me Do you truly know the meaning To love To live To breathe Without, we are meaningless

To love, to live, to breathe
I'm an animal A puppet on a string They control me And I don't feel a thing They think that they own me I'm a monkey in a cage And they can't distract me From the war that has been waged I'm envious of their freedom My mind fills with rage I'm sick and claustrophobic my skin is turning green My head is spinning They ignore my scream A sharp piece of wire Sticking out from the weave I push to my wrists And I start to bleed My blood turns to embers as my skin turns to ash My soul leaks away Forgetting it's past No real death here It's all to soon No freedom should come From forging your tomb For this is only a dream Bestowed upon me by the moon Oh how I long for an opening A way out of this mess A pill or savior Comes to take my stress My hair is falling out My bones begin to show Starving for a familiar face Someone that I know But all that they tell me It'll be over soon Lay down and rest love They whistle me a tune All of these beautiful lies fill my head A pretty whisper wakes up the dead This is only a prism dream Dressed under a grey screen Those bright eyes can't stay hopeful A star plummeting to the ground They fight with me using actions ever hurtful But this is only a dream

Only a dream
He was walking home Ticked off with a broken nose They stole his things And with no shame Left cuts and bruises Head to toe covering him No one gets his mind No one really tries He hides in the closet When he gets home In fear of his intoxicated father His leather belt Swinging from his fist The boy cries in bitter isolation He can't trust anyone With no safty He fears for his life His mother was killed when he was five Nine years later He just wants to die Multiple times he's tried Every one of them He survived His wrists bleed for releaf His skin pulls tight Then it's released He tiptoes out of his room This for the last time His father asleep in the chair He looked pail His chest barely moving If you weren't paying attention You might think he was dead The boy got an idea Such a melancholy idea He went in to his father's quarters Peaking under the bed There lay a box full Unsold meds A knife in the kitchen would be his weapon Nothing but a sigh let out His father was soon to be no more His heart pounded His mind thundered With anger and pride "This is for Mom!" He screamed with tears in his eyes A knife to the chest He fought the man Pushing further and harder He worked fast The eyes glazed over Both fear and joy filling his heart Into the bathtub Pills in hand He turns on the water He uncaps the bottle Putting it to his lips Up turned He sinks down Letting the drugs take their toll Gone ****** Suicide This was the price For freedom For justice

Gone
Inside a room somewhere in my mind I sit alone in the darkness I can't break through the bars I'm trapped behind The beat of my pulse constantly racing A panic rises as I cry Blood drips down my chin I stare out at the dark starless sky all the beast are real They stalk me in the night I wait for them to come for me This to be my last fight I fake my smile And pretend I'm fine A mask so well displayed Emotion they can't find I hate this cage The chains that bind I scream for a savior But they can't hear my cry How do you see The girl hidden inside her mind

Inside Her Mind
The wind felt cold on his bare arms Standing alone in the empty dead surrounding His hands are numb and his body trembles Staring into the eyes of death over his fate For he knows what lies ahead He knows he has to slay the beast He has to seal the tomb on his past A broken man or a rising hero The greek warrior cannot sleep this night He has to get up and fight He has to restore what was lost All that is dead will be revealed as light All his hurt soon gone to the oblivion Hearing the battle cry of his town His own mother tells him to rise and fight For his reward when he returns home A warrior, a proven man will find to home of a king He now meets his demons face to face His sword drawn and in position Through the chest of the beast And off with his head Fear has been left for dead Where now stands a golden blade Wielded of a warrior and a royal His family has pride in the unbroken man He is given a name Ischyrós

Ischyrós
You paint your eyes black And hide behind your hair You keep your words in your head And put on a blank stare Into Oblivion Your last peace of self You know they're not equipped with understanding You know they don't see your hell You're drifting all alone That's what you believe Under all of the pain you know You just need someone to see To love you for who you are You need someone you know won't deceive Who won't walk away Or turn the lights off You won't be betrayed By the one that you love They know you They hear you They would do anything for If you'd just let them near you And you know what they want Is just to help you They want to know the truth behind The isolation you feel in your mind The one who does care Who puts you before anything Proud to call you a friend

Friend
Every punch, every bruise Every kiss, every tear I love you The blood stains The migraines I can't stand it But I love you Maybe pain is my weakness Maybe you're trying to help Maybe I'm only imagining This entire mental hell I'm done fighting for freedom I'm done begging for help In some twisted way This is beautiful This is colorful Others look at me and say This is sad I don't care I love you I reflect on my actions I only ponder the abuse You're drunk again I run and hide How dare I call this love To be honest I hate you You took it all away Everything My family My life My safety My sanity But when the dust settles And the noise is gone You're still here Holding me in your arms As I cry like a child Stitching my cuts As I bleed In some sick way I love you
