Writing poems
With the ink of my tears

Night sits on my chest
Squeezes poems out of me
And grinds my poor soul

Noting changes.
Nothing grows.

Empty highs.
Empty lows.

I can't feel the warm,
And I can't feel the cold.

You try to make me happy,
And I try just for you.
But other than our trying,
Nothing else is new.

I worry I'll upset you,
If I can't make a change.
It's not fair of me,
To make you stay the same.
Don't let me drag you down with me.
I've seen them come
I've seen them go.
The aftermath
of a heartless show.
They're steps ahead
while you're steps behind.
Their echoing footsteps
your peace of mind.
Rewind, rewind,
rewind, repeat.
Eventually
you're alone with defeat.
Unless you change
your way of thought.
And learn self love
is where love is taught.

You broke and dismembered me,
But of course I’ll never let you see.
     Disregard that fake smile, I’ve been practicing it for quite a while.
It falters behind my closed doors,
For there is where I fight my wars.
   I hate being in here anymore,
I hate everything I used to adore.
All the things I found comfort in, Now wrap me in an abundance of sin.
My morning and late afternoon coffee, it now makes my eyes glossy.
My warm blankets and soft bed,
  I’m too afraid to rest my head.
   You’ve taken every safe place,     because now they all remind me of your face.

Shadow
walking this earth
searching for the sunrise
everywhere I went
I saw your blue eyes

some said you were
nothing but a dream
I held you once for
a moment, it seems

here I stand, I'm facing the end
knowing well, soon death will descend
I see your face as it was that day
so close to me where I lay

from town to town
I fought for what was right
in our love's name
I stuck to the light

the darkness called
to me everyday
you were the only thing
that kept it at bay

here I stand, I'm facing the end
knowing well, soon death will descend
I see your face as it was that day
so close to me where I lay

there's only time to
whisper one last goodbye
smiling at you, my
life departs with a sigh....

Let me out

I need the light.
I want the day.
Dig me up.
Forget my name.
Try to climb.
I slip away.
Let me out.

Crawling on the ground.
Back to you.
Dig me up.
Forget my name.
Tried to crawl.
But I slipped away.
Let me out.
Can you hear me?
Let me out.

I need the light.
I want the day.
Won’t you dig me up?
I’ve listened.
I’ve given.
Let me out.
Can you hear me?
Let me out.

Monsters

Monsters don’t exist
Still, we are very afraid
Because we made them
Monsters. A concept so often used to represent anything dislikable to society, which we are afraid of. Yet literal monsters don’t exist.

It’s different
Every time I arrive
I am alive
But it feels as if I’ve died
And the only roadblock is
Is my mind

Comfort

I’m searching for comfort
In words of wisdom.
I know where to look,
But am I strong enough?
