  Jan 2021 Raven Blue
Morgan Brehilt
Sometimes I think of killing myself
How the end would be so nice
How the darkness would swallow me up
And how the numbness would suffice
My need

For all the voices of the feelings
That constantly keep me reeling
To softly slow to a hush
As my brain starts tur-tur-turning into mush

How wonderful it would be
To have that powerful silence
Not even grasshoppers would bother
To wake me

My cells would stop dividing
My brain would stop the lying
Myself would stop denying
What I truly want

But but but
This is just a reckless fantasy
A way to elude one’s own reality

Because as I sit here on the floor
Tears drip drip dropping
I realize there’s those who care for me more
Cherish me more
Love me more
Than I love my own self

The crickets chirp
I put the pills down
Raven Blue Jan 2021
How can you be you?
When nobody wants you.
How can you live in true?
When everybody thinks everything about you is untrue.
How can everything be okay?
When everything is in grey.

"Dying"
The word little Raven knew as falling;
But little Raven was trying;
Little Raven's mind keeps denying;
But little Raven's heart wants to survive and keeps fighting.
Will little Raven die;
Or choose to live and fly?
Little Raven (IV)
Raven Blue Jan 2021
I was riding a roller coaster;
Ups and downs;
Swirling around;
As I was getting higher;
It was getting colder;
As I was getting lower;
I thought everything was over....
Raven Blue Dec 2020
Reverse the time;
As the grandfather clock chimes;
Just playing the words with rhymes;
Wondering if I can really go back in time.
I don't really know what this means.
Raven Blue Dec 2020
New year starts;
But I'm still falling apart;
It's breaking my heart;
And I feel like everything is too hard.
