16/F I love to sing and write songs. Lately I've been writing poetry though. I put feelings and emotions into my poetry.
I know that you love me, but it doesn't always feel like it I know that you love me, but you don't show me sometimes I know that you love me, but I can't see it sometimes I know that you love me, but... But you never have time for me anymore you never ask me how my day is anymore you never spam me throughout the day anymore you never tell me that you love me the same anymore You don't support me anymore I know that you're busy, but..... But you don't even think of me throughout your day you don't text me throughout your day you don't love me throughout the day you don't give me attention throughout the day, but I know you are busy so I just accept it... I accept the fact that you don't think of me throughout your day you keep yourself busy I accept the fact that we will never be the same because you keep yourself busy I accept the fact that you don't have time for me anymore you keep yourself busy I accept the fact that I will never be your priority you keep yourself busy I accept the fact that I will never be your number one because you keep yourself busy... I understand all this but... sometimes I need all that sometimes I need that love sometimes I need that support sometimes I need that attention sometimes I need that priority time Because... Without it... I feel like giving up sometimes I feel unwanted and trashed sometimes I feel unneeded sometimes I feel like I'm in a battle with myself that two should be fighting I feel like I'm not me anymore I feel that you forget about me sometimes, you don't think of me I feel alone... I don't know how else to tell you this, so I wrote this poem because you don't listen to me when I try to tell you that I'm suffering, that I feel unloved that I am alone in this relationship that I don't feel like this is a relationship we never talk anymore... I wish I could tell you how I feel without you calling me overdramatic or needy I wish I could tell you this without you calling me clingy or obsessed I wish I could tell you how I fell without you calling me selfish or ungrateful for what I have I wish I could tell you this to have you understand that I feel alone and forgotten... I know you are busy, but doing those little things, like small texts to know you are thinking of me They help they help a lot. I know you want your time and you don't want to spend all your free time with me but making time for me makes me feel important Even if I'm not your priority, and I respect that I'm not but you have to remember that if you want a relationship, you have to supply the needs of the other person too You have to remind them that you are thinking of them sometimes otherwise, you lose the connection, the trust, the love, and the relationship itself... You have to remember that they feel things too, and it's not just other things that you have to make your priority. If you want a relationship, you have to commit to that person and put the time in them and not just the time that you have free, but the time that you make for them. You have to make time for them in order for things to work out... I love you, but I don't always see or feel it from you.

Where am I? Bc I feel out of place I feel alone In the darkness trying to hide my pain My confusion My insecurities so no can see I feel alone in the darkness trying to find myself Who am I? Because I feel like I'm trapped I can't find any answers I'm alone Please I need to get out of here and live my life But I can't..... I'm alone I'm unworthy and trashed. I'm worthless and there is no going back Where do I go? Because I've lost my map Which way do I turn? Im stuck trying to put the puzzle together but it's all one color and there's 10,000 pieces. I'm struggling to find my self, my direction in life Where am I? These monsters are in the dark here with me Attacking me Making me feel like I'm no one. WHO am I? Trying to see I'm blind I can't hear anything around me But my hands are over my ears because I'm trying to drown out my thoughts The thoughts that come up to my neck They choke me I can't speak anymore They are surrounding me Like a never ending war I'm stuck fighting living in a hell whole of a life losing everything I earn I don't know who I am anymore it's hard to control my thoughts I need that protection where is it? I'm stuck and afraid Afraid of the negative thoughts that fill my brain I'm no longer needed they say I can go about now but I can't But I want to But I just CAN'T I'm stuck here in quicksand no one strong enough themselves to pull me out I'm sinking. I'm not me anymore. But that's the whole point of depression, Isn't it?

Who am I?
Sometimes I feel lonely And when I'm by myself, I cry I cry when I feel hopless, emotionally tired, and depressed Sometimes I feel lonely

Shii ion know what I'm thinking, or if I'm thinking at all. I got these lines in my mind, and I'm jus writing it raw. I got this whole life ahead of me, but I'm thinking I'll fall. Like, what is this future that I'm creating Can I really live up to what I'm debating? Now, I'm getting kinda sick of this, and I'm starting to think, If there really is any bliss. Because this life I'm creating isn't starting to sync... Starting these programs, before helping myself, girl what do I look like? This perfect image, makes you wanna think bout yourself These negative thoughts, maybe you should work with yourself I'm tryna do this therapy thing all by myself Don't say your working with me, when I know ppl be working against me Only a select few that I know of are giving me a shove This direction my life's going is headed in the right direction, but one small mistake ruins it for the worse Like what is your intention to make me feel like I'm drowning in my thoughts I'm still tryna go with what I was taught.

I don't know what to think no more Being with you makes me wanna Soar Through the sky, come on baby, please don't lie to me, I got this under control You plus me, that makes us whole. I got this relationship, trust me its been a grip since you and me got the time to think about this future we been dealing with it, yes you were you were saving this future for the both of us come on baby, lets discuss how we gonna be together for ever and ever. This future is in our hands we not gonna let our future be decided because of all these demands that we're getting from those around us come on, we gotta adjust the time we have together its lighter then that feather over there, just floating away make this future all fuzzy and grey. But I know us, we don't got no suss, we gonna be together forever baby because I'm your one and only on a daily.

together forever
Dear grammy, as the clouds open their doors to let the sunshine through, you have opened a door in me, to let my happiness show your positivity shines like the sun Impacting everything it touches As the sunshine peeks though the clouds, like a child playing hide and seek, You have peeked in on me, when I am feeling down Shining your light, through my cracks you have helped me grow by shining happiness into my life long ago You have taught me how to grow, How to stand up tall, you never gave up on me, not once in your life You are why I kept going, you are as positive as a flower blooming, every single day Sadly, you have passed away

dear grammy
I want to be a mental health social worker. I want others to not feel the pain that I am feeling. I want to teach others how to understand their emotions, their doubts, their worries. I want to help others learn how to be happy, how to cope how to find a hobby. I want others to know that I am here, and that I'm not going to leave. I want them to know that I can help them. I want to lower the depression rates, make people happy, comfortable, relieved I want a lot of things, so I'm going to get up do something help others I want to make a difference so I'm going to change learn research study repeat Until my goal is met, I will repeat I will repeat over, and over, and over Until I have what I want Until I can find peace with myself

Finding peace
I want to help, talk to me, I can help you. Depression rates are increasing, Will you be the next victim? Depression can cause you to feel numb, broken, alone, scared, unloved, or unwanted Depression can tear you into a trillion little pieces and scatter you all over the floor Others don't help clean up, Instead, they walk all over you, they push you to the side, hide you in a trashcan.... They tell you that you're trash, you tell the mirror. They tell you no one wants you, You tell the mirror. They tell you that you are nothing, you tell the mirror. They tell you that you are nothing, you tell the razor. They tell you that you are worthless, you tell the red stained water. They tell you that you are nothing, you tell the doctor. They tell your mom that they were so so close to you, you tell God it's a lie... Depression is hurting our souls, our hearts, our physical bodies. Are you next? Talking helps. Talking hurts. Talking is overwhelming. But you have to do it. Pick up the scrapes, glue them together, find peace with yourself. Understand that you have to want to be helped in order for ANYONE to help you. Understand that you can be glued back together. Yes, there are scars, but they show others what you have gone through, dealt with, survived. You can survive, because right now, you are still here reading this poem.

Depression
If my depression was a person, They would show what goes on inside you. They would tear you down and tell you that you are not worth it. They'll say that you are stupid and ugly and that no one would care if you're gone. They crave others' hurtful words and takes them to heart and then begins to turn your happy days to dark days. Your proud moments to failures. Your normal days to sad days... They love others hurtful words... "No one would care if you're gone". You try to tell them "it's not true, that's a lie!" "It's not a lie", they say "You have NOBODY!" "You are worth nothing! No one even notices you anyway"... If my depression was a person, I know for a fact that they would find your softest parts, your weakest links... and point at it, drawing attention and digging a hole, until you couldn't handle it anymore. Until it makes you suffer as it has suffered. If my depression was a person, I wouldn't be here right now. Yet, somehow, my depression was a person...
