While you have no control over the quantity of your life
The quality of your life is in your hands
i.

shadows of a dark world
the stars are cut out of paper
their blues unwinding the skies.

ii.

night drifts and drifts
its luminous notes
driven against a burning
bridge.

iii.

clouds scurry and break
shiver along like silvery rivers
fold origami corners onto
the breeze.

iv.

tragic stage of a darkening world
i dream of flowers, i dream
of the sea.


v.

your love sings out
and i am happy once more
bathed in dark rapture.
Unrobe me
From my flesh;
Stripped and ripped
Down to my bones,
That I may be as
Plain as this boundlessness.

I render myself,
Just as I am to you;
Solely and wholly
Uncovered and unstuffed,
That I may be the only,
You behold in this moonlit realm.
When you write the wrong words
don't erase them entirely

Instead,
scribble above them
and below them
the alternate spelling
and better-fitting synonyms

Sometimes you don't need a clean slate
You need the slate that carries pain and blood
Hate and love
Memories and regrets

What will one be
without mistakes
if not a blank page
with no name
As I suffer and bleed
To the never ending pain
To which once, I cried "yield"
All things in vain, all in vain

I hear them speak
Whispers in the harsh winds
Like a snowstorm at it's peak
The Humans' unmerciful fiends

I bleed once more
My weary, troubled mind
My heavy burned core
In myself thorns I did bind

Thorns of unending Agony
Of Anguish and Despair
Like the endless sea
The deeper it is, the less I care

But for all this Pain and Trials
I stand at Fate's own door
Happiness to myself is in denial
I begged to make all this no more

So once more, we rise
We fall and stand high
Toppling in our own demise
Until we learn to try and try

Deep into ourselves we scarred
For all of this, we alone bore
Even when our faces with grief, marred
There's still Plenty More To Suffer For
Hi, it seems like last night I was suicidal and beyond help.  Yes, true, I tried cutting my wrists at the best. It's my nature, and my curse. I drowned in my own peers' disappointment and scorn last night. And I guess, my half-filled cup of patience and endurance just started to overflow so... I admit to having nearly committed a grave mistake to the ones who still cared. My dear mother most of all, would have her heart broken. And some people did reply last night, to which I have only recently read before this poem. And I said to myself, 'Hey, maybe there are still good people out there. People who can hear my teeny tiny voice,'. To those, thank you for caring. Now, I'm still seeking help with people and medications. And I hope, no I wish, to stand and stay strong till I go to the end of this, and I will do so.
When I was seventeen
After you kissed me you
Asked if I wanted something to eat
I said later
And you frowned
Because only true rejection
Could make you die inside

When i was eighteen
After you kissed me you
Asked me if I wanted something to drink
I said not now
And you left
Slamming the door and
Collapsing in defeat

When i was nineteen
After you kissed me you
Didn’t even offer me anything
Because you knew
Even without me saying
You knew that i would decline
And you left after saying goodnight

When i was twenty
After you kissed me you
Told me you were sorry and
Said this was the best for us.
This time i slammed the door and collapsed in
Tears and now it was my turn
To be rejected
you may think this is serious but its actually about tay zonday
