Unforgivable Pain
Jellyfish Dec 2015
The things that I said
were meant to be so
unforgivable.. to the
point where you'd
never want to see me
or speak to me again.
I said it all for a reason.
To avoid getting hurt
by you once more.
But I miss you everyday
and I'm sorry for everything.
I'm not going to say anything
to you though. Because there
will only ever be one result: pain.

I'll become Oblivious
Jellyfish Dec 2015
You're a heartbeat that's fading, in and out..

We've been through this so many times now...


You've hurt me, you've hugged me, and we never say goodbye.

I wish you'd tell me why you're the one, whom
my mind has been focused on for the past twelve
hours.

Why'd you choose the spell devour when you
locked in our friendship?

Was I only ever your prey?

I guess you wanted it to always work; to stick well.

And it obviously has, since I'm inside an eggshell that has your pictures all around the wall that has me trapped inside; forcing me to dwell.

I'm writing this so that you'll know I'm not going to anymore.

I'll forget you eventually and it'll all be laid out on the floor.

Burning Inside
Jellyfish Dec 2015
I sink under the water
holding my breath until
I hear the thunder that

me out.

I grip my wash cloth as
I inhale steam, I'm burning.

Hello Old Lover (10w)
Jellyfish Dec 2015
My fingers touch the strings
everything's connecting
we're not strangers..
The title may seem odd, but for me this is about my guitar. I haven't played it in a while, and today as I did I was reminded why I began to in the first place. I used to always play when I was sad or happy, similar to the way I write poetry now. Maybe I will slip back into song writing. Who knows.

Untitled Rant
Jellyfish Dec 2015
Right now I'm
outside looking
up at the sky
and I'm tired
of trying to
rhyme all
the time
everyone's
always
butting
into my life
it's as if they
want me to
be upset all the time?
one day I'm happy
the next day I'm not
but you know what
never changes?
Their screams that
spout from hatred.
Whatever happened
to telling me I could
accomplish greatness?
Because I'm tired of
waiting and chasing
while I'm complaining
as I'm suffocating beneath
your demands ****
I wish I'd just stand-
up to you.

Trying to Survive
Jellyfish Dec 2015
I can't remember the last time I played my guitar and I know when he gets home he'll ask me whether or not I've been playing like the star that he wants me to be well no, I'm sorry.. Please don't hate me for not wanting to carry out your childhood dreams that somehow became my own I just want to survive without becoming too broken before the end.

Sleep doesn't want me
Jellyfish Dec 2015
When you're laying in bed
feeling basically half dead,
eden's playing through your
             h e a d s e t
and everything else is quiet.
EDEN: https://youtu.be/CmEK31ghdFM

Last night was terrible. My eyes are sore from crying so much. On top of everything that was happening, I strained my ankle which made it worse. I slept for about 3, maybe 4 hours. I'm not sure if I'll nap later or not. I'm not sure what I'd do without Hello Poetry. I literally dump everything here, whether I'm ecstatic, utterly depressed, or even furious. I'm glad to be able to write somewhere so accepting.

Soraka Flocka Flame
Jellyfish Dec 2015
I am Soraka Flocka Flame,
I go hard in the paint:
I'll make the bad guys go away
because I've got heals for days
that's right- look the other way
you can't handle this type of pain
I can tell that you're afraid.
Don't worry though because
I make everyone feel like this
all of your skill shots are amiss
and I bet I'm making you reminisce
about old times where you were fly
like the other game you played last night
but right now, I'm bringing you down
your teammates are calling you a clown
you're starting to believe you'll get reported
for  **f e e d i n g
It's fun to have fun to be fun with fun.

No Where to go
Jellyfish Dec 2015
But where am I supposed to roam
when the bullying follows me
everywhere that I go, even *home?
Jellyfish Dec 2015
The screen in my window is partially torn
one half is fully attatched while the other..
is caught in the wind that is slowly pulling
it along, waiting for it to let go and flow as
gracefully as the newly falling snow

But I am the other half, holding on for my
life because I'm afraid of heights that the
wind will lift me up to..


The glass that I am protecting is already
broken, so why shouldn't I let go?


                      Don't.

Extreme dissatisfaction; your real life was covered in utter distress.
Jellyfish Nov 2015
24 hours ago I was someone different
but right now I'm crying right where I'm sitting:
in this old photo booth on the side of the beach
where you left me after saying that we should end things
because this wasn't turning out the way that you expected it to be.

Jellyfish Dependent
Jellyfish Nov 2015
Late at night when I'm trying to sleep
I often picture myself curled up; and
being cradled inside of a Chrysaora's
bell.. From time to time I'd glance out
at its tentacles drifting along with the
oceans waters as it carries me along
I eventually fall asleep, it holds me in
my dreams. I'm dependent on Jellies
they help me forget the bad things.

Things will be okay
Jellyfish Nov 2015
Last night I cried
until I had red eyes
hyperventilating;
I was
continuously saying
that I wanted to die
in between every breath
trembling;
I was
mumbling little nothings
that meant everythings yet
no one wanted to hear me.
I am
breathing;
steadily now, the next day.

You're the cause
Jellyfish Nov 2015
You ask me why I'm crying and if
something is wrong- when I don't
respond you remind me to do the
dishes and clean off the counters-
don't forget to sweep the floor, "yes
every inch matters," I mumble that
I yawned and zoned out before I
could listen and you roll your eyes
as you walk away- unaffected
but you're the cause of all of this
tension don't act like you can't tell.
I think I must belong in Hell
knowing all of the thoughts I allow
to slip in and out of my mind..

I'm so ready to say goodbye..

Slow Down
Jellyfish Nov 2015
Never ending, life keeps on going.
With or without you; time will not stop
and just when you think: "I've got this"
it all turns. The world struggles- one crisis
after another, people die and we all keep
trying to find new reasons to survive.
Someone, tell me **why.

I don't want to be, just pixels on a screen.
Jellyfish Nov 2015
I throw my phone across the room
and scream as it shatters against the wall
how could you ever assume that I'd want
to see that content.. Tears easily escape my
eyes as I sit on the floor in distress and hide
my face in one hand. I hate you.  *Hate.
To explain the title, this is about someone who holds a grip on you. They keep hurting you, but you can't let go of them. No matter what, you may have tried, multiple times even. But you always come back. They're a ******* bomb that can reactivate over and over; causing you endless amounts of pain. Yeah.

Goodbye
Jellyfish Nov 2015
Everything is getting blurry as
you walk away from me in fury.
So many questions run through
my mind as I take in all the times
that we've had and where we've
been. You always find new ways
to make my head spin. Knowing
that you won't be anymore tops
it all off.

I Wish I Could Leave

I wish I could move out tomorrow
turn away from it all and start new
somewhere that nobody knows me
where no one knows about the things
that break me so easily.
Jellyfish Nov 2015
Now you're doing the things that we once did with someone else and I'm not okay with it. I told myself I'd never allow regret to seep into my mind and I still haven't but I'm feeling sad because of everything we built time and time again that I had to throw into the trash because of the things that you said and did. I hope it was worth it for you, obviously you've moved on without tears or pain while I am the one floating in the sea of disdain. You'll always be the friend I tried so hard not to give up on.

Lost Because of You
Jellyfish Nov 2015
I will never forgive you for anything that you did
you made everything about you and denied it
it was always what I had done to you
you were never in the wrong

we no longer talk
I hope that
you think
it was
worth
it


*because I'm conjured up in a storm because of it.

Why have you stopped writing
little nothings that hold such big

I long to read your words and
hear your whimsical voice and
the sounds that escape your
mouth when you laugh.. Just
tell me what I need to say to
bring everything back..

I know right now you're surrounded
by the darkness; lost within your mind
and what's around you that makes you
want to (maybe)  cry?

I'm trying to be supportive and stick to
your side- I'm sorry that I'm at a loss
for words; and that I'm not sure why.

I'm supposed to know what to say, aren't I?

You tell me I have to start sleeping right

the last time I remember you having a say
was way back when- before the rain came
inside my head is a war, it's been going on
for longer than you've been gone-
have no fear, this isn't your fault
it's mine for trying to rely on someone

Front Seat Responsibilities
Jellyfish Oct 2015
Do you want to sit in the front seat?
Because I really don't at this point
when did I even start wanting to sit
there and why? Did I think it'd make
me feel more mature or somehow..
better? Than I was before or maybe
I felt closer to them since I was
sitting directly beside them..
All I know now is that I don't want
that seat that for whatever reason
became so important to me.
I don't want all these responsibilities either.
I miss the back seat and drinking mixed up
ice cream that I begged for so dearly
tell me why did I have to age; grow older
why did I long for it more than I longed to go
to the park down our road..
When did my cousins become my foe?
And why is everything so hectic; fast
*why can't everything just slow down..?
Hopefully, this will make sense to someone.
