Overwhelmed
Jellyfish Jul 2017
no one sticks around
they don't want to hear me out,
conversations go unfinished
and I'm back to wearing a frown.

Colorless
Jellyfish Sep 2017
I took the Christmas lights down,  
they're really out of season.
My room is always dark now,
it makes me feel kind of barren.

Goodbye
Jellyfish May 2017
We finally said goodbye
hopefully for the last time.
It was a peaceful ending
No one ended up crying.
I laid everything out on the table
you responded calmly
I was surprised,  
for the first time we weren't unstable.
I won't remember you as a horrible friend. I'll remember the you I met in the beginning.

It was Cold
Jellyfish Nov 2016
I'm holding onto you and shutting my eyes, as the song keeps playing, my heart continues to melt. The sounds from the squirrels jumping on leaves are all drowned out... I feel your hands moving, I smile and breathe you in, our faces come close again, your nose touches mine and I know I don't want this time together to end. *It was cold outside but you left me feeling heated.
The squirrel was laughing at us.

Stressful Slumberparty
Jellyfish Sep 2017
I got close to sleeping,
but stress has decided
on having a sleepover,
(again.)

Easy to Replace
Jellyfish Nov 2017
As I close my eyes I realize once more,
I’m not as important as they are.
I can always be replaced.

I'm Nothing
Jellyfish Nov 2015
I'm dead inside
I just want to hide
no need to confide;
in me.

I love the way the the moon rises and kisses the setting sun, between the sky touching mountains.
If only the dirt would stay on the ground.

Jellyfish Feb 2016
I wonder what you're doing right now
Are you sleeping or are they testing you?
I hope you're eating enough.

Fold
Jellyfish Mar 2024
I have so much shame, I can't tell where it begins
All I know, is the feeling it is.
It's a burning sensation,
that makes me want to fold in on myself,

My thoughts are so hurtful, it's as if they're in shouts.
It's intrusive and steals my energy,
It makes me want to eat tons of food
to push the feeling out of me.

It's a disgusting feeling,
I want to make it go away
and become the me I've imagined
From daydreaming every single day.

Writing Here
Jellyfish Aug 2017
I don't know what happened to me.
I used to write beautiful things,
but these days I seem to ramble on
until the notes match, only my song.

It makes me wonder why I'm still here
on this website to explain ever tear
to anyone who'll read.

Not Clean
Jellyfish Jul 2015
Even this subject to me is.. impure.
It's so agitating, why can I not forget?
Does the universe mean to keep it..
Locked inside of my head?

I want to forget the whole month,
Of that year.
I want to leave behind everything,
That I was too afraid to act out.
Everything that happened because,
I did not act out.
I was a weakling trapped inside of,
A lost girl.

Now I have been found,
In the best way possible.
Is it not supposed to be,
..easy now?

I suppose that's just not plausible.
After all I did somehow cause it all.
I kept it all shut inside for a while.
But it has to all spill out eventually.

It is so difficult to remain happy.
Or is it?
I shouldn't let this get to me,
But I am unclean.

What if no one truly wants me.
This is my greatest fear.

I Hate You.
Jellyfish Jul 2015
We used to be so close,
But now you're one of those,
People who don't need me anymore.
It's okay because I'm used to being ignored.

I just never expected it from you.
Because you were once my sun; my moon.
You challenged me to think differently,
About love, life, and everything.
It's too bad, now I finally see.
You just lied to me.
I hate you.

Maybe someday you'll feel this pain too.
392 · Aug 2017
Back Then
Jellyfish Aug 2017
When I go back
and listen from beginning to end
every song I listened to back then,
I feel so sad.

Remembering all that I did,  
back when I was feeling hopeless.

L ove
Jellyfish Mar 2017
I don't like being without you, but I will pull through.
You're my best friend, you know it all. The time that I crashed and why I didn't get up after the fall. I wouldn't want it any other way, no one else can make me feel the same. With you I'm not as gray as I've been before, instead I accept the rain and watch it as it pours.

Outside
Jellyfish Jan 2017
I look out the window
at all the snow on the ground
the American flag looks cold
It's below zero right now

Snow is piled up in heaps
from shoveling out our driveway
the night sky is dark like always
and the street is not currently visible.

emotions destroyed you
Jellyfish Feb 2017
the music playing
in the back of your mind,
turns into screams
as your day becomes night.

twisted and burning
in your dreams, I can see you fading.
spinning around, crying out
as you fall to your knees.

*no matter what,
when night comes,
the darkness finds me again and again...
and again.

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..

Not so Fun Goodbye
Jellyfish May 2016
I can't say that I'm proud
of the things that I've done
saying goodbye to you
wasn't something I found fun

you didn't make it easy
I didn't want to hurt your feelings

but I did in the end, didn't I?

Jellyfish Jul 2015
Sprawled out on my bed,
He's stuck in my head, again.
It seems I'm creating a habit.
For him; I'll always write ballads.

And I wonder if he can tell,
He's the reason I've lost my frown.
In his heart I'll eternally dwell.
When I'm around he's such a clown.

No, he always is.
And I wish I were still his.
But he truly deserves so much better.
I wish his arms would act as my sweater.

He's literally hacked into my mind.
I can't stop thinking about him tonight.

Special
Jellyfish Sep 2017
You make me feel happy,
you fill me with hope.
You've changed my life
in ways you'll never know.

But I want to know...
how do I make you feel?
Do I make you feel special?
Do I make you feel real?

I want to know,
if I make you smile wide.
If you long to reach for my hand
when you can see the tides.

My niece is crying.

I think inside I am too,
I already miss you.

Jellyfish Oct 2016
I do sing for you
Even now
The sky is blue
I remember you
I want to call you
To ask if you'd like to meet
Before I go back to the sand-filled
Place on the other side of the nation
Where I'm living now.
But I cannot.
So I'll lay my phone down next to my pillow
And continue sleeping; bitter filled dreaming

do you ever feel lonely?
they say that it's healthy
but I'm unsure of that.
Despite my liking alone time
too much of it can hurt me.
It makes me feel so lost, and empty
until my tears fall endlessly.
After crying I usually find solace,
but this time I just want to cry more.
Which makes me feel *pathetic.

When will I feel your arms around me again?
I'll wait forever even if you make my head spin,
You haven't yet, you fill me with bliss.
The room may be spinning,
but not from sadness.
I love you

Thankful
Jellyfish May 2017
I lay here in tears
thinking about how I've changed.
When we found each other
I was a little deranged
in a sad kind of way.
I was going through things
but you found a way to open me up.
Today, looking back
I never would've thought
I'd be as happy as I am.
I've been laying here thinking, only good things. I wanted to write about it before I let myself sleep.

And shield you from your fears.
I hope you know I believe in you,
And just how much that I care.
I'm sorry for the things that occured.
Will you let me hold you once again?
I won't let go this time. I promise.
Sad that I couldn't think of a title for this one.

We started out as friends in the south
Used to spend nights at each other's house
Over time our nights would be spent online
Thousands of miles apart; together inside
Many years spent making memories,
Somehow you got the worst and the best of me.
We were kids then but we're adults now
Our friendship is lost, will it ever be found?

Too much
Jellyfish Oct 2017
My heart aches with too many emotions,
I want to throw them away.

I’m going to quit drawing. It’s not what I’m talented at anyways.

With you there's no tension
but I'm sorry I'm always,
craving your attention.
When I'm talking with you,
