When
        night
              kisses
                      the
                          end
                               of
                                  day,
                      there’s
                          a
                     moment,
            when
       my
cares just…
       fall away,
                     a
                     feeling
                         of
                           gliding,
                                     upon
                              calm
                                    waters of life,
                           when
                    peace
               and
         love,
         overcome my strife….

eyes swelling
body shaking
mind yelling

blood pressure raising
tears falling
body shaking
vision blurred

this is what i feel when your memories visit

captivated by your mind is scary; as scary as the ocean being captivated by the shore.

you taught me that the loneliest star was still loved because it was a planet of its own

you said to me "i will not let the vastness of the way you feel take control over you"

i can't seem to remember the way you used to touch my hair i cant remember the slightest curve of your collarbone

you told me to not only feel but breathe what i wanted and that is exactly what i did.

i breathed your name

but here you are
you made me tough

Shhhhh did you hear me scream
Shhhhh it's in your dreams
Shhhhh did hear me cry
Shhhhh can you tell me why
Why am I screaming and crying
Why do I feel like I am dying
Shhhhh why do I look so sad
Shhhhh why is she so mad
Tell me why we didn't just talk
Why did I just get up and walk
Shhhhh do you know how you make me feel
Shhhhh why is this so unreal
I know this love is in my heart
I think it just needs a kick-start
Shhhhh why do I stare at the phone
Shhhhh why do i feel so alone.

When does someone open their eyes and see
When does she know she’s in too deep
Why does she hate herself
Why has she not killed herself

Why I’ll tell you why
She’s too strong to take the easy way out that’s why

Some days she wishes with all her might she will die tonight
But she never does die that night
Or any night those thoughts enter the mind

Before you judge me for doing what I’ve done
Keep in mind
That it was because I felt dead inside
And needed to feel alive inside
Just because I’m breathing
Doesn’t mean I feel alive inside

please don't make me think
turn the volume up
let me sink in noise
drown it all out
i don't want to hear you
call my name anymore

if i must live in this world
then i refuse to dwell on notions
i shall go through the motions
because it be hell if i stopped
and hell if i think
get these thoughts out of my mind
Suddenly, everything I see from my eyes is negative.
Suddenly, everything I hear from my ears is negative.
Suddenly, everything I think with my brain is negative.
Suddenly, I block out all positivity, nothing but hostility.
This happens every once in a while.
At first I thought it was strange, you know?..
I was able to hide and pretend, but now I can barely comprehend.
My curiosity to "what are these feelings" and my thoughts about "I wonder why this is happening to me" now turned into curiosity about the afterlife and thoughts about ways to end it.
When I say end it, I mean ways to end this pain.
It's a pain that is barely describable.
It's a pain that I can't seem to understand.

His voice said
Nice to meet you.
His eyes said
You look good.
His hand said
I want you to notice me.
My head said
Stay away from him.
My heart said
Kiss him.
My voice said
Nice to meet you too.
l.t.
I walk round
And round
And round
Hoping to hit my ten
Thousand steps.
How many calories does that
burn?

I end up eating
And eating
And eating
All 3 meals they serve
Me. Do I deserve
This?
How many calories do they
Have?

I lay and think
And think
And think
Why am I still
Alive?
Why did I not ****
Myself
Right
This
Time?
Just random thoughts while walking around the psychiatric ward.
