empty seas
My head aches
with untold stories
My stomach is full
with swallowed words
My body has worn away
from being a trophy
The smart, awkward friend
The introverted, successful daughter
When can I tell my own story?

I am sinking, yet I don't have a ship to sink
I'm drowning, yet I do not have lungs to breath
I'm alone, yet I know I am loved
I love, yet I feel so numb
I'm mute, yet I can't stop talking
I'm talking, yet I have no voice
I have no voice, yet still you hear
I don't deserve you, yet you won't leave
You won't leave, yet I still fear.
Why is it like this?
I love you. And I know you love me..
So why can't we bask in peaceful simplicity?
Why must it be muddled with muck?
Why do I feel so stuck?
I should be happy.
I should be proud.
Yet I'm sitting here,
And this silence is way to loud.
"Crawling in the dark for you
Do you Burn amoung stars for me?"

I want to die.
But not in that way you just lose everything you have now.

I want to die.
But not in that way you go to a better place afterwards.

I want to die.
But not in that way you stop feeling all the pain.

I want to die.
In a way that death takes my pain away, but only for some hours or minutes, so I can rest a little bit from it.

Because after all, we all have to suffer someday, for some time.
But no one told me I couldn't take a rest from it.
So why shouldn't I?

That's why,
I want to die.
English version. I hope you like it. I thought of this when some important people decided to hurt me, and I realized that this is just a moment and that everything is going to be fine if I believe in that.

you drift over me, a gust of fresh air
resting gently onto my bones
but even your feather-light touch
digs like a thorn into my side
your comfort rejected, smothering stultification
mutual love exiled, favoring isolation
apologies i whisper as i lower myself into the ground.
even if someone is in such a state of depression that they can't properly respond to your attempts to reach out to them, please know that your efforts are deeply appreciated.
