have fun reading my unhappy poetry
I don’t know what it is I don’t know how to feel If that hope is worth keeping Or maybe just let it all fly out Something I never thought about Dropped down without a sound A concept I don’t even want consider Pushed down Forced up I still just feel empty An emptiness I don’t want to fill

I dream of never being perceived having the world never see me again I’ll take up no space just pass through bookshelves and give the occasional shiver just to prove that I still can I want to be haunting just in the back of the library a legend people tell but can never quite prove pure speculation I want to be a ghost so no one can really look at me living only in thoughts and conversations but never on my own

want to be a ghost
life is safe in your arms shield me from myself the thoughts can’t get through your love your skin against mine connection deeper than this I’m fully physical just a body next to yours soaking in the warmth of love a bed with you in it is better than anything I’ve ever wanted

lover
I feel the weight of it on my hand the possibilities bliss? darkness? pain? a second chance? no one knows except those who succeed I don’t want others to be in pain but I can’t handle my own it’s selfish to go but even harder to see life past today

scattered handful
we live in life stories of sunshine true days hidden in corners of diaries lock and key covers and tape most days untold eaten up by minds so sad

perfect life I dreamt of: a shot of hormones a boy who loves me a place to call my own and freedom to live I have it all yet why is it not enough? four years it’s all I thought of the fix to all my problems all but one became the start of all of them

dream life
im trapped by a bed and i dont know if i want to get out sleeping isnt a safe place i never sleep soundly yet im always thinking about when i can be in bed eyes closed and unconscious i dont enjoy sleeping i enjoy not thinking i enjoy the time where i dont think that its just random dreams good or bad because they arent real like the thoughts in my head i want to fix it feel alive and not plan my day around naps that i can be awake for more than 10 hours without needing to collapse on a bed but if i get fixed i dont have an excuse i wont be able to say im just tired because its so much more im trapped by my mind and i just want to get out

trap
sometimes I think I don’t know what love is that I can’t say the words since I haven’t lived long enough to really experience it but then I remember how I felt with his head in my lap my hands idly playing with his hair as he fell asleep how he let me fidget with his fingers when I have nothing to occupy my mind and that he found it cute and not annoying I know how love feels I know what it is because of his blue eyes how they look at me in the morning after holding me all night long it’s in the way he softly kisses me before I walk away even though I’ll see him in a few hours it’s how I am amazed at every little thing he does that even a small smile I see daily always makes my heart flutter sometimes I think I don’t know what love is but then I remember him and how he showed me what true love is

my boy
your heartbeat in my ear fingers tracing my freckles I feel safe in your arms and at home against your chest
