I'm officially on autopilot.
Just drifting and staring, never there.

You take everything

You squeeze every bit of joy out of my life.

Every drop of sunshine belongs to you, not me.

You won't even let me get my **** together.

You just keep taking and taking.

You never stop.

You never give, only claim.

I hate you
I hate you
I hate you

But you are a part of me, clinging to my very being.

So I guess I'll have to accept you, either way, I still lose.

standing up there
cotton hands
wrapped at the jugular

i let myself
                     down
                down
           down

coz ive been here before
Jamie Sep 2020
i'm drifting
into treacherous waters,
again

i still can't swim

except this time
i can't find the energy
to come up to the
surface

there is no one around,
it's a ghost town,
and my eyes are sore and heavy

it seemed so much
easier yesterday
what happened to all that
childish wonder?

where did all the magic go?

i don't think
i want to float any longer
i think i might try and find
the bottom

wish me luck,
wherever you are
...
Jamie Sep 2020
I can't afford to
give myself hope

I'm afraid

I don't want to
**** up again

I'm afraid

I keep covering the
Holes with chewing gum

I'm afraid

I'm falling apart,
Piece by piece

I'm afraid

Of myself

turns out insenstivity buys you friends

We have all experienced
The harshness of life
At such a tender age

It’s unfair as
It is preparation

We will grow up to be
Amazing and powerful spirits

Strong, feisty
And
Beautiful souls.
I was having a conversation with my mom and interpreted her words into a poem.
Jamie Nov 2020
I've stopped caring.


Does that make me selfish?
Jamie Oct 2020
I think I keep checking up on people because I subconsciously wish they'd do the same.
Jamie May 2021
there's a little ball of fury within me slowly gaining more and more energy
i don't know how to stop her growth
Jamie Nov 2021
I went to see you yesterday


u reminded me why I stopped
loving you
Jamie Apr 2022
i press and press
deeper and deeper
watching the layers liquefy, dissolving

cracks  cracks  cracks

it's never enough
Jamie Jul 2021
u wont let me eat when i want to
or even sleep when i want to

God, u wont let me move without ur ******* interference

Please, please just go away
Jamie Jul 2020
I weep silently
As I grip the recyclable material
Apologising profusely

I am sorry

I know you
Do not wish
To spend more money

I am sorry

I really try
Another episode surfacing
I just can't, without a doctor

I am sorry

You try and
Find excuses to
Revoke the dosage

I am sorry

I really am, sorry that is
I didn't ask to be this way
I didn't hand-pick you
I really am sorry

everybody has stopped listening and my ears are bleeding because all i do is listen
Jamie Apr 2021
death has entered my dreams again.
Jamie Jul 2020
I shiver and shake
Goosebumps
all over my
skin
My breathing
is laboured
I don't want to be here.

My fingernails
drag across
my arms
The skin
leaking
I don't want to be here.

I promised to
stick it out
but I knew
not of the
things I know now
I don't want to be here.

The lights are
too bright
the voices are
too loud
the air
too thick
I don't want to be here.

I told you
I warned you
If He doesn't do it
then I will
I don't want to be here.

And that is my final promise to you,
one that I intend to keep.
Jamie May 2021
i mistake loneliness for nostalgia
Jamie Jul 2021
another run in doesnt faze y'all
coz it's all a joke, right?
Jamie Oct 2021
MY hands
MY hair
MY skin

"my choice"

u dress me up like a little ******* doll
pinks and blues,
lipgloss and holeless socks
sweetened words and subtle pokes

i never really liked the dreamhouse

MY legs
MY arms
MY midriff

i hate feeling like a mannequin

Jamie Oct 2020
everything I want to wear doesn't suit me
because my body is all wrong
Jamie Dec 2021
i found out
today that i hate you










so im going to spend every waking minute trying to hide you
Jamie Aug 2020
I've noticed a pattern with you.

You seem to care for me,
but hate buying me the
medication I need

You roll your eyes
or shout at me for
finishing them
like they are candy,
addicting

Maybe pick a side
Please, it's getting really confusing

Two nights ago

You asked me to take
every two days
to 'get me used to it'

I told you that I
might need them
You disagreed

If they were cancer meds,
you wouldn't be encouraging
or rather
forcing me to do this

So I've decided to stop swallowing
so that you won't ever need to buy
me anything
lol
Jamie Aug 2021
lol
ive purged myself of
all things
        
                            Y    O    U

                                              and i couldnt
                                                   be happier

I feel like I've conquered the world today,


But everyone was asleep.
Jamie Feb 2021
i want to dissolve into the walls of my mind
Jamie Apr 2021
i've become good at pretending again
Jamie Jun 2021
i think it is more about how you never got to know me when i was better

u only knew me when i was sick
Jamie Aug 2020
Yes, I am sensitive,
And you know this
Ever since 'then' I haven't been the same

But you still
Say hurtful things

I can't help but ask:
Must I leave?

I've tried before and
I can only assume that
You don't or you didn't
Want me to go through with it.
Kind of hard to tell,
Your constant yelling and threats
were hard to decipher

But now, you put
These situations in my head
And I can't help but feel
Unwanted

I feel like a big baby,
And not the adorable kind

My voice becoming more
And more whiny and annoying
To my ears

That's why I refuse to rebut
I don't want to hear her voice

I feel like I'm
Locking a promise
Deep in the centre
Of my rapidly beating heart

A promise to go
A promise that'll make sure
That you won't need to insult
Or reprimand me again

But then I think of you
Being the one blamed
For my departing
For pushing me to the brink of insanity

I can't help but
agree with such
accusations

I think I might leave
Or I might chicken out again

My point is,
You knew and still know
I wish you didn't
So that this promise
Wouldn't be locked so tightly
.

Nine months
Of blissful ignorance

Nine months
Of peace

Nine months
Of rest

Nine months
Of safety

Nine months
Of love

Nine months
Without heartbreak

Nine months
Of growth

Nine months... was all we got

What gave the World the right to rob us of so much?
Jamie May 2021
please stop mistaking curiosity for infatuation
Jamie Jun 2020
On the outside

I can't breathe
Give me air
Please

I look fine

I can't feel
My fingers are frozen
Please

But I'm not

I can't see
My retinas burn
Please

Set me free
Jamie Feb 2021
every time something seems to go wrong, i always think back to the past
to when i was on the brink of ending it all
and wonder how i could've avoided all of this if i just sank
Jamie Dec 2021
I'm staying safe for me
not anyone else

I'm taking care of myself
for me
not anyone else

I'm getting better for me
not anyone else

I'm me for me
not anyone else

not even for you
Jamie May 2021
i hate being one step ahead of you
now that i'm finally making progress, your life has turned to ****
Jamie Jan 2021
I'm my own self destruct button
Jamie Jan 2021
my eyes have been closed
all my life
and now that they are open
I can't seem to flutter them shut

I see them everywhere now
in the shops
at school
in the reflective glass, I use when getting dressed

it's an infestation

everyone is selfish

I cannot erase the
epiphany now
it's glued to my skull

every one of them more ghoulish than the last
each carrying a heavier bag

i often wonder if my bag
yields enough weight to be part of the club
Jamie Jun 2020
I can see it in the way
she watches me;
she hates me.

I've tried and tried
from birth
to be what she wants.

I've been sick too many times
each time not
physical
never taken to heart

I promise I didn't will
my brain to be this way
I promise I'm trying
I promise I'm not pretending

Please believe me

They've tried to
force open the gates
of her heart
But it's no use
Everybody has a key except me.

Please let me in mom
Please give me the key
I promise to try harder this time
Jamie Sep 2020
I think when we become someone's answer; we are too afraid to ask them for our own.
Jamie Sep 2021
ive shrunk
and im scared that i love it so much
Jamie Dec 2020
It's always terrible talking to a stranger.
You realise that they say the things people around you are thinking.

You see how your close ones have carved a tone especially for you.
One, a stranger does not use.

It's always scary conversing with a stranger.
It's like sprinkling salt on an open wound.
Raw. Real. And undeniably painful.
Jamie Mar 2021
so ******* angry
and anxious

I'm suffering from something called a secondhand midlife crisis
