It just hides in the back of your mind

Invisible
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
Depression is invisible
That’s why it hurts so much
You can’t see what’s been broken
Or who’s been hurt

help
Cerys Briggs Jun 2019
We’re taught to help others
but how are we supposed to help ourselves

Free
Cerys Briggs Feb 2019
I’ve been released
It wasn’t bad it wasn’t good
I was just trapped
Trapped in a place where I had no freedom
I was told what to do
How to do it
And I couldn’t change my mind
I’m finally free
But now all you do is haunt me

Words
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
Words make you feel different
They can make you happy
Make you sad
They can make you depressed
Words are a powerful thing
So powerful
They could end someone’s life

kingdom
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
you treat me like a queen and you'll always be my king
and soon we'll have our own kingdom to rule
where problems melt away
but we are always here to stay
you made me your queen and now you're my king

Eyes
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
The eyes are the door to the soul
That’s what I always believed
Then I met you
And all I saw was darkness

Keep in touch
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
A thousand miles away
But I’m one phone call away
One text message
We’ll keep in touch
Right?
But we know how that goes
From talking everyday
To every other day,
Once a week,
Once a month,
To once a year
And then never

Lost
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
A mistake
No matter how small or big
Can destroy the most precious thing to you
I made a mistake
A big one
And I lost him
I lost the most precious thing to me
And I lost my love
I lost him
And I love him

I love you
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
“I love you”
Those 3 words
Can make someone’s day
Or
Break someone’s heart

Pain
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
Pain doesn’t go away
It just hides deep inside us
Until we explode
And go away with it
Just to never be seen again

mistakes
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
i've made terrible mistakes
we all have
we've all hurt someone we love and care about at one point or another
i always worry about hurting someone i love
even if it means i don't get happiness
but sometimes i black out
i don't know what i'm doing
i lose all control and focus
that's when i ended up hurting the one person who meant the world to me
trust was broken
respect was lost
and it was all my fault
never hurt the person you love
because you'll never stop hating yourself for it
then you'll lose them
like i did
we all make mistakes
just don't make the same one i did

Mean it
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
“I love you”
Words we’ve all heard before
But who actually meant it?

Broken trust
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
I trusted you with everything
My heart
My soul
My eternal being
Even when you would hurt me
I’d still trust you
I’d still love you
Yet you’re the one who doesn’t trust me

Absence
Cerys Briggs Dec 2018
I think of you when I cry at night
You used to be my light
You’ve left me alone
For reasons that are still unknown
Why did you leave
Why are you making me grieve!
Your absence does nothing but hurt
You said I love you
So often I believed it
The only thing is you didn’t mean it
But I did

forget
Cerys Briggs Jun 2019
It is your blood
in my veins
tell me how

It is your words
engraved in my head

It is your actions
that i still feel

now explain to me how
i’m supposed to forget

Stay

People come and go
I thought you’d be the one who stayed

demons
Cerys Briggs Jan 2019
We all have demons
who would've thought you'd be mine

Love
Cerys Briggs Jun 2019
Love is a tricky thing
You don't know who means it
Who has it
Or who abuses it
