One
Then two
Three
Then four
I know I have a problem
But higher I soar
Five then
Six
Seven
Then eight
I better stop now its getting really late
What started as scratches
So light and so thin
Nine
Ten
Now craving deeper
When will it end
Eleven
Twelve
Why even fight
Thirteen
Fourteen
It hurts so much
Fifteen
Sixteen
Now I've lost touch
Seventeen...
Eighteen...
Red dribbles down
Nineteen
Twenty
I HAVE to stop now....
Maybe one more?...
No, or I'll be on deaths door...
I can't bleed the pain away
I cant bleed my mind free...
I'm trying to stop now
But what's stopping me?....
Angered by scars
but wanting to cause more
Because if I cut just right my mind won't reel anymore...
Trigger warning

The thought of starting new,
A beautiful world with you.

My head in my heart,
My heart in your hands.

I can't wait for this life to end
The promise of more,
A whole world to explore?

My life will start anew
The day I leave with you.

My heart sings a new tune,
For the world I know of you

The days are brighter
My mood seems lighter
Because inside me is a spark of desire!

Your smile lights a fire in me,
One the world has never seen
A passion that drives,
A desire will thrive.

A hope that you are the one for me
Because, you see,

For once was a shell,
A girl going through hell,
You calm the storms

Never once did I believe
someone could restore peace
In this broken down shell

But you looked me in the eye's
Pulled me from the fire
And met me with the same desire

To heal and to mend
Every known sin
Of a heart that now beats for you.

The weight of the world on her shoulders versus the pressure from her own mind is enough to make her shout out and scream, enough to break her beyond repair, its enough to destroy her from the inside out, people try to crumble her, tear her down under false pretense of "helping", they don't understand how easily help can turn into hurt,they always say "no one can love you until you learn to love yourself" I guess i'll never be loved then because i have been trying to love myself every day of my life with no success, "just do it" isn't easy with depression "get your attitude straight" isn't easy when you cant understand how you feel "it'll be okay" I know that! but anxiety is good at painting ugly pictures leaving you petrified. The feeling of impending doom that comes looming over you at the most random or the worst possible moments, the feeling of not wanting to get out of bed or even live some days, the feeling of driving everyone away because you distance yourself in order not to be a burden, no,no, not a burden, they say you arent a burden, your mind says differently though... heres the truth, youre never told about how badly it hurts when you pull yourself out of bed feeling so empty like you have this huge hole in your gut, it... its indescribable, this weight on your chest when you want to cry but you cant breathe, when it gets to much and you have no outlet and you want so badly to reach for that knife to take the pain away but you force yourself away, or the feeling that something will go wrong and you just want to hide, you cant trust anyone, you cant even trust yourself because WHAT IF! the feeling that you're slipping away again and you're trying so hard to hold it together, when your emotions drain and you feel like a shell of who you were, you want to scream out but you cant, you cant tell anyone how badly it hurts because you cant accurately describe whats going on in your mind, so you study until your mind spins, just trying to find the right **** words to say but nothing ever comes close to the pain you have inside, the frusteration of the random anger and sadness, the worry and hatred, the pure feeling of unadulterated insanity! You finally say something and break down in tears because its all too much but venting dosent make you feel any better so you lock yourself away, you cut yourself off from everyone because you dont want to be seen so broken down,  but that somehow makes it worse because you worry about everyone else, so you end up in an endless cycle, You tell yourself youre stronger, you can beat this, then the attacks come on and the flashbacks and you break again, youre exausted and feel like your at the end of your rope but yet you still hold on for everyone else, the doctors dont help and neither do the meds but you say they do, you say youre getting better but you arent, your dying and screaming inside but you dont let anything out, you hold your breath count to ten and try again, maybe one day this feeling will go away, youre fragile but resilient, you feel nothing and everything, you cant do this anymore but you have to... for everyone else, because you dont know how your story will end but it cant end now, not when it hasnt even gotten good yet, you cant let the deamons in your head win, not yet... not now... not this time...
write down my thoughts without erasing or corrections, post them annonomously. maybe this will help someone know they arent completely alone in this...

I truly love you,
I'm trying my best,
I'm giving you my trust
So you can take the rest.

I'm giving you my heart,
I beg you not to break it,
Because if you do
I'm not sure I can take it.

But what I don't say
Is how hard it is,
When all my head will think
Is of all the sins,
How many times ive been hurt,
How many promises where broken,
How many times I've been abused and heart broken.

I try not to show it,
But I'm oh so broken,
I'll leave all of these words unspoken,
I'll tell you I love you,
That I need your attention,
Everything else I'll leave unmentioned.

I hope my love and trust isn't misplaced,
That our love won't carry the same unholy fate,
The fate that rips apart the heart creating open wounds,
All because of the person who made you swoon,
I just pray you don't take my love for granted,
Because trust me when I said I loved you I meant it....

I'd say i couldn't believe
You left me high and dry
But I knew it in your words
All you said were lies

I saw the warning signs
Like flashing lights ahead
But i still couldn't believe
you'd leave me for dead

Without a second thought
You dissapeared
Left barely a trace
But I'd known you were here

For you left scars on my heart
A thousand words on my mind
But would it have really killed you
To only have said goodbye?

I'm left with feelings
impossible to ignore
My emotions feel raw
And unbearably sore

Once again I let you break me
You held my heart in your hands
You'd mercilessly crush it
Id beg for you to mend it again

Every word was heart wrenching
And noticeably dry
But yet you left me
Still wishing for a goodbye.

His look is healing
Eyes gazing
never hazing
never letting go

I love him so
But he must know
I long for him to let go

I'm not good enough
Not strong enough
To lie to those eyes

If he takes one look
He'd know the truth
But he can't see what I hide

Ill tell him forever
With hopes of never
For he should not carry that burden

For every moment we share together
I hope he thinks is worth it

For night after night I lye awake
Pray the universe my soul to take
And fix me once for everyone's sake

I'm broken beyond repair
I feel it in every stare
Its only a matter of time
Before I say goodbye

I hold his heart
I hold his eyes
They're so beautiful yet blind

For no one see's
The troubles in me
Yet I'd have it no other way
Because once someone see's that side of me
They find it hard to stay

I'm not strong enough
To feel myself break
Time and time again
So if I break again
That may be the end of my story
I'm sorry love
From your best friend...
No where near my best work... I'm no poet, No singer, No writer... I only wish to let my heart out in a way that is clensing......

Whispers in the wind
voices full of sin
blowing in the storm

they whip you round
they scream and howl
this is just the norm

they infiltrate your thoughts, your mind, and your being
they leave you lying broken, your heart open bleeding
they infiltrate your body
then find way into your soul
this is why you feel broken and so unbearably alone
