Socially acceptable weirdo. Depressions' bitch. I cry tears of black ink on scrappy used up papers..
Who are you? You're not the same person you were two minutes ago. I just don't get you. You're compulsive, and corrupted. You're easily addicted. You have friends in your mind, but in reality friends you'll never find. You're simple yet, confusing like a Rubik's cube. With all your twists and turns. This pain you put upon me has left me with cuts and burns. Will we ever learn? To get along and fix these never ending battles? Your bipolar versus my anger. Some days, to me you are a stranger. Who I thought I knew has suddenly disappeared. Your disease is something I've always feared. Illness invaded your mind, and has taken over who you once were Leaving all your past senses blind.

Bipolar Friend
They flow and I am left Confused and sad and a mix of a million other things But I can't say any of them I am a man I put up walls to keep people out And bite my cheek to hold back tears I need to look strong, to put on a brave face I am a man Who cares Maybe everyone, but I don't see that My sight is blocked by walls that I put up so now No one can see me, and I see no hope, only darkness Yet somehow words seep through the cracks I can't see the source but the words are clear They break down the walls, and they flow Am I  a man?

I'm a man
Like oxygen the human body needs it In order to survive; In order to exist. It nourishes and sustains the part of us hidden away from the world - our souls. Without hope our souls shrivel up and die And leaves a dark hole inside of us, Making us question our own existence.

Hope
With my pen I try to slay the demons I am determined to chase them from my eden With the inky darkness I will paint my picture I will paint them with such stricture My words will flow And everyone I'll show They will no longer be allowed to reside Hidden deep inside With the darkness of my ink I will bring them to the brink With the black flow, I'll shine the light On their hideous form, no longer hiding in the night

With My Pen
She's an emotional vampire She'll **** out what she desires She preys on the lonely Making them think they are her one and only She lives off their emotion Love or hate, just as long as it's commotion She thrives on the drama Leaving behind only trauma She'll take you down slow You won't even know Till she releases her hold Leaving behind only holes Where she's ****** out your soul She's an emotional vampire She'll burn you like Hell's fire She's quite the enchanter Her whole life is a banter It's only the emotion that matters She sparkles like a sapphire That emotional vampire

Emotional Vampire (Frontwards Backwards Poem)
Hush. . . no one must know That I am at war with my own mind. No one must know That I am fighting a losing battle, Stuck in a brain that wants me dead. For how long I can keep it up Only God knows. But I will probably be dead Before anyone even begins to wonder. But hush. . . no one must know.

No one must know. . .
Lost and confused, he found a path. He followed it like the yellow brick road Looking to find the wizard of Oz For his one and only wish - HAPPINESS. Yet, the yellow brick road he followed Only led him to a path of self-destruction; Because along the way he discovered distractions To numb the pain until he found the wizard. Until he found happiness. He found comfort in those distractions Which quickly turned into addictions. Now he is stuck , In the middle of that yellow brick road . Because the distractions he discovered along the way Were destroying his soul; one bottle of ***** And bag of **** at a time. A part of him has given up on finding the wizard. So he indulges in his own self-destruction; stuck on a path that was meant to save him. To save him from himself.

Self-destruction
unheard unseen unconscious uninterested unloved unwanted unbecoming unable unnamed unattached unattractive unbounded unchanged I feel all of these things at once.

I feel.
Inside my shell All is well Inside my shell There is no hell Inside my shell My voices no longer yell Inside my shell Is safely where I dwell But my shell cracked It's all turned black My shell is cracked I'm flat on my back My shell is cracked I'm under attack My shell is cracked My knife it flashed My shell is cracked My blood just splashed MY shell is cracked My death is a fact
