Hey I'm Charlie :) I have schizoaffective disorder and use poetry as an outlet, I hope my writing makes you feel something.
Adore. Thats the only word I can think of. It's so funny how she helps me breathe, Yet she is the reason my chest hurts. So tell me, how does it feel to be Adored by her? Do you smile when you Wake up? You should, I would. Does it feel like your blood is air, And you could just float away If someone blew? I'll tell you how it feels to watch Her adore you...it feels like my blood Is empty. But not like air. Just hollow, so hollow I could sink Into the earth and never be seen again. It hurts to breathe. I want to say its not fair, but she is so Happy. So who am I to object? I guess I'll never know how it feels To be adored by her.

Adored
Don't you ever eat? Of course I do! Lies. The hunger swirls in my stomach like pride. I am strong. I am in control. I will be skinny. But this isn't any ordinary wish, A little voice in my head is telling me that My bones should be my entirety. Thinner thighs, arms, stomach. I will fade Away till I am made of air; even then It won't be satisfied. But now I'm in too deep. I think I'm in Control but I've lost it, and now I fear my mind Is fading too. Don't help me. Please. Some people where born to disappear.

Disappear
There are monsters in my head, I'm afraid they want me dead. They scream and whisper in my ears, filling my mind with unusual fears. I feel everyone's eyes in my back, I am no longer safe, I fear an attack. They're poisoning you with their food. Can't you see you're being used Stop it! Leave me! I thrash about, I would give my life just to have them out. Just give in to us, then you'll see No, you'll never get the best of me.

Voices
Quiet, quiet. Its following me around Quiet, quiet. Please god don’t make a sound. Hush, hush. Soon it will be here. Shh,shh. Now its getting near. It lurks on every corner, in every nook and crack. In everything dingy,dark and dreary, right behind my back. It sits upon my shoulder and whispers in my ear then I finally realize, it’s a figment of my fear. But still I see it in the alleyways, the darkened, lamp-less street, in my bed at night time, hidden beneath the sheets. I feel it in the back of my mind the place where no one goes. I pray that it doesn’t find you too or it will take control.

Quiet
Lets play pretend for one more night. Lets not say goodbye till it gets light. Lets repeat all our past mistakes. Lets wait for our hearts to break. I do not love you but it doesn't really matter. I do not care so both our hearts could shatter. You perform your role living our disgrace. You fulfil your part in your empty embrace. Lets play pretend for one last time. Without reason our lies are sublime. Lets stay together till darkness will rise Lets be murderers and become what we despise.

Danger
They can't tell what's wrong with you from the outside. They can't tell what's wrong with you from the outside. They can't tell what's wrong with you. Is my illness truly  invisible? Or am I just deluding myself again? My thoughts are racing, falling, tumbling, maybe their right to call me insane. Don't ask me to speak because I don't want to; words don't mean a thing any more Instead I write and write onto sheets of white into the abyss my heart is poured. I hear their screams in my head all the time a pleading in my ear, I'm the one who's living this hell so why is it me you fear? I carry on breathing everyday despite the creatures living inside and I will keep living in every way until one day I don't even cry.

This Illness
I miss the snow when the sun is out I miss your touch when your not about I miss the stars when city lights are too bright I miss the city when the country is at night I miss the leaves when they fall to the ground I miss the silence when there's to much sound Its hard to live life and be happy when your never satisfied

Satisfaction
Your worn out t shirt lies on my floor It has that smell that I adore My lipstick stains around its neck Remind me of my worst regrets Like how I let you walk out my life Without putting up a decent fight Watched you leave, closed my eyes and wept Now I've just a shirt that I've kept There's a traffic jam inside my head Thinking of words I should have said Now I cant forgive and I can't forget And I'm living my life in deep, deep debt

Traffic Jam
A laptop light, a half eaten cereal bar, and a major suicidal tendency. I haven’t left my room in three days. The demons in my mind have escaped my body and barricaded shut my doors and my heart. I sit here staring at creatures that do not exist crawling up my walls and laughing in the shadows. The only sound is of sombre songs playing on repeat, attempting to **** my sadness with tears, and the scribbling and tearing and screaming of pages as I scratch my soul onto them covering my arms in blood and ink and tears praying that eventually I will succeed, and my pain will finally assent from my body onto paper, and lay there eternally in long thin letters that I can ****** into the void for all the other souls begging for help at 3 in the morning to hear, and I will finally be free, to sleep.
