my heart broke
when you told me that you tried to take you life

you'r so pure and delicate
the world doesn't deserve you

no one does

it broke my heart
to know that you feel
the same emptiness
I do
Lu Apr 2018
I can't even begin to explain how **** it is that your leaving,

but I also can't even begin to explain how happy I am that you've found a way to move on and leave all the bad things behind.

Through all your hours of endless tears, and weeks of numb despair
you still found a way to keep going and i am so proud of the strong, kind and independent person you have come to be.

Don't let anyone drag you down
Don't settle for things your better than

And don't worry about what others say
because in a few years you'll be off somewhere in the world doing great things.
I know you will.

Keep following your passions


Your amazing and somewhere in all your doubt you know it too

Love always, lu.

An empty heart

Drained of emotion
....
Pale and cold

It’s colour devoured


Stripped of life
....
Alone and helpless

It’s strength dull


A pulsating emptiness

Flowing endlessly

it makes days darker
,
thoughts foggier

...

it makes me feel alone
even when i'm surrounded

...

it makes me wonder
whether it's worth it
-
whether life is worth it

...

but mostly
,
it makes me feel
like i'm floating away

into a place where i can't be saved
,
a place where i'm
cold
numb
...

empty

I wonder

if we'll meet

at a place

where everything is perfectly alined

just for us

,

just for what we could become

...

both our sparks

bright in a world of dark

shining with no hesitation
,
with no restraint

Have you ever felt
so non existent
that you could fall
off the face of the earth
at any time
and
no one would even
notice.

Have you ever felt
so down
that nothing
could even put a clear thought
in your mind.

the dull haze of my lamp lit the roof just enough for me to see myself silhouetted across the wall.
I look at this dark, soulless shadow and think about life and death

and how it has never really made sense to me.

how can a human, a soul, something that was once living, all of a sudden be gone from the face of the earth.

Lu Aug 2018
Life is everything and nothing all at once.

Eventually we fade, and all that we were, is gone.

and yes, maybe i am scared because the future seems so non existent and i won't be here to see what happens to this world.

...

I'm scared to let go of my life knowing that i wont be able to look up at the stars as they shine, or swim in the ocean and feel the water guide me, or smell the flowers that grow out in my grandma's garden.

person against person
colour against colour

what have we become

why must we fight so endlessly

we are all just skin and bones

you and me
we are the same

why must we rule against one another

why must we allow the rich to think we are their slaves

and the poor to think they are ours


this unfair and unjust system shouldn't be able to decide the category of each person

it shouldn't be able to label us

we are all equal

death
is
so powerful

. . .


the soon to be, death of a loved one
has changed my perception on life itself
and how venerable we really are

it has changed the way i feel about his last months alive

and now, i sit here writing this, still trying to decide whether the choices i've left myself with are really worth it
. . .
becuase they seem impossible

and soon he might be gone,
and ill be left with that
empty pit in my stomach,
thinking about all the things i never did with him,
and all the small moments that could have been something
life changing


ill be left with so many
drowning thoughts
and im scared that i will
suffocate beneath them

he was so alone
and no one cared

because they didn't realise
how much it damaged him

.

they didn't know about
the long
restless nights
he stayed awake through
wondering whether
he was even
worth anything

they didn't know about
the constant
draining feeling
that was always
inside him

...

and
they didn't
know
that he was laying
on his bathroom floor
with pills
spread out across the bench
and a letter
saying
i'm sorry

society
Lu Jan 2018
societies harsh ways
corrupting the mind
...
spreading like the plague

will it ever be overcome
,
will it ever be controlled

how influential can it be

saying this
doing that

eating away at self confidence and consciousness

ruining anyone who dares to challenge it
or anyone who dares to go another way

when will the human race wake up and realise the soul crushing devastation it has caused

will we ever be aware that it has taken lives
...
that it has taken peoples humanity and crushed it so easily
