whoever said that "the pain is worth it" must've had a sick mind, / because I've used it as an excuse for too long
I woke up this morning... With a different sense of things. No more sadness alluring me. Nothing pulling at my heart strings. I woke up to rainfall. Whilst the sky was black and blue I never felt more one with the earth, besides when I'm howling at the moon. The weather was a reflection of myself. Manifesting my inner turmoil into a beautiful Thunderstorm. I'm torn. Torn from my esteem, Stuck aiming to please But cannot nonetheless Tomorrow is another day But today I feel content.

The idea of living without you terrifies me so much that I have to do it. I want to tell you but the words sit in my stomach like bombs. I don't want to lose who I love, just to get a temporary satisfaction, but after a while my pain went numb. We'd fight and your words became knives that no longer cut. I no longer felt the need to baby your feelings, didn't care what was up. Yet a familiar love has kept me around. Because our love is like walking down the same alley, getting mugged 8 times in a row, hoping there will be something different about today. And today, thoughts of you are like a pinch in a numb place under my heart. And I'm not sure if I should stay.

That's what you used to call me Always with the smirk on your face, and the squint in your eye. Leaving traces of your love across my thighs. You'd hold me by the throat I loved it cause I wanted to die. Because I couldn't cope that I fed you with my lies. You didn't deserve my **** and you haven't been the same since. You'd go through the pain as long as I stayed. So beside you I laid in order to keep you sane. But I continued to use you, was honest and told you I was doing so. Told you I needed to leave you, cause I was only going to keep hurting you more. Your response was telling me you loved me, I started to tear up, told you you're delusional. You grabbed me by the face and kissed me, attempted to get sensual. But I just had to walk away. I knew I couldn't stay. I hope you'll one day forgive me for not being in your life. Forgive me for the confusion and the strife. **** That's what you yelled when I closed the door. I'm sorry I don't need you anymore.

"Kay"
Depression hit in the A.M. Feeling on edge, like I'm meant to be in an asylum. Tears flooded my cheeks and my fists clenched. A flashback with a razor played in my head; a memory that wasn't meant to be missed. But Déjà vu came into play when I grabbed the sharpest knife with the most painful ridges to rid my inner strife. I pressed it deep into my skin but my skin wouldn't slit. I kept trying, grinding the blade against my wrist. Feeling all the pain yet it wouldn't budge; I knew there had to be somebody watching over me from above. So I put back the most dangerous knife, that only left the slightest bump, to remind me I deserve to go on with life; there's no need to be rough. So this one's to my God, and the angels surrounding me, thank you for the love and protection. I was blind to it but now I see.

I was blind but now I see
I'm not liking the thought of looking at myself and seeing all the stress of my mother and the heavy eyes of my father. Looking into the mirror and seeing a reflection of myself a reflection of who's a burden on their shoulders. I just want to be better. To be better than my anger within. My anger towards myself. My anger towards the 'me' I didn't realize existed. Wanna leave it all on the shelf. Wanna writhe myself of this system. Not sure how to explain my bitter soul Besides showing you my reflection of my parents' expressions I stole.

My Parents' Reflections
You're the reason for my heartbreak             the reason for my poetry             the reason for my regrets I wish I didn't give you all of me. Tears building up but I refuse to cry. My walls getting higher; I refuse to sigh. You hit me with the "I miss you's" You hit me with my own pics Tryna revitalize my emotions, though I keep tellin ya to quit. I just wish you could see that your heart will bleed that together we're toxic and you're destroying me.

Untitled
the things you'll do after emotional abuse. They try to love you, you run. They try to get close to you, you push them away. They try to break down your walls, you build them higher. And when you realize, that you are in fact all alone.. after everything's said and done.. and that emotional abuse from the past shows his face again: you begin to self-destruct. Crying, sobbing,, you just want to be held but to scared to be. Trust issues and depression begins to define you. You have no one to blame but yourself. & you continue to spiral, dying inside a little more every day until you're in your dark room, all alone once again, and that razor blade pretends to be your friend.

It's funny(no it's not)
I love you I hate you Addicted to the madness Addicted to your bedroom You're my cure, you're my cause The one I hate, the one I love

(igneous name for a poem placed here)
how many drugs, or bruises or breakdowns or anxiety attacks or sighs or fake smiles or silence it will take until someone, a n y o n e realizes that I, need saving.

I sometimes wonder,
Faceless, got a mistress named Insanity Chaotic levels of intensity between my soul & me She told me to cut my losses; rid myself of what's luring me from my coffin Masquerade mask; my face lacks meaning Nobody notices this sigh, till they see it bleeding Pleading, needing, what will jump-start a healing With Heaven above my body, I remain tearing up at the seams Screaming aimlessly, meandering through these thoughts I keep, spiraling emotions until there's nothing left of me.
