Sometimes I
Wonder if
Nothing that
Has happened
To me
Did happen
Would I
Be different
Maybe better
Offered salvation
Everything that
I'm not
Guess I
Won't know
OnLithium Oct 2024
I misseth mine own loveth. I wisheth f'r h'r to beest in mine own arms. To has't the warmth of h'r corpse. H'r soft toucheth and coequal softer gazeth.

You can consider me
Your favorite
Disciple
I would follow you
Until my
Death

With that said
Take my hand and I will
Dedicate
Myself to you
And even when I turn to
Dust
You will find me
Waiting

Divination
Sought out
By Dreamers
Sinners who
Held out
Desperation
Controls those
Who Don't
Wanna Die
Without somewhere
To belong
Pleading for
Deliverance
Enticing Dogma
You Don't
Believe in
OnLithium Jul 29
You say things
I don't understand
Tell me I'm free to go
But still under your hand
You do things
I question and you lie
Tell me I'm free to go
Only way I'll be free is if I die

...                                          gashed deeply
in the quietest of ways
                         when i should have been
shrieking in torment
                         but with the swells
of both oceans and wounds
                         comes mitigation
...                                                and repose
OnLithium Jul 12
For those who have stuck around
I should be grateful
Yet often I've been wounded
By those who are close and dear
Their intentions virtuous
And their results malicious
All comes back to
If familiarity mattered
Water wouldn't boil a fish
OnLithium Jul 30
You make it difficult
To write about loss
And tragedy
And heartbreak
And all the other things
I start writing something
You just smiling
Just looking in my direction
Is enough to wash it away
You ask what I'm writing
I answer honestly
And say nothing
Because what I was going to
Isn't as beautiful and joyous
As you
Somehow it feels
I've been misplaced
Shouldn't be here now
Wishing I had been there then
Somehow it feels
I've been replaced
Can't be there now
Praying I'll be there then
OnLithium Aug 12
i know
the meds
keep me
steady
but then
when things
become very
choppy
one med
turns to two
two to three
and i start to
lose all of me
OnLithium Jul 26
when it comes
there's that
feeling
and now everything
begins to
slip
when it passes
there's no
feeling
and now everything
continues to
slip
OnLithium Apr 26
I don't want to feel anything
Yet I complain when I feel nothing.

I don't want to find love again
Yet I complain when no one wants me.

I don't want to talk anymore
Yet I complain when I'm not heard.

You are my
Everything
And that may
Seem bold
But what's really bold
Is how you stormed
Into my life
Even though
You were always there
Eagerly waiting
And now
I can't and don't
Want to leave your
Embrace
OnLithium May 21
every ten seconds
feels like a thousand years
every time i laugh
know ive cried a thousand tears

every time i wince
know ive always been in pain
every time the sun pokes out
feels like i worry about rain
Eh
OnLithium Apr 30
Eh
I live in my own creation
Or I live in a godless simulation
Eh, its about the same.
OnLithium Aug 5
Peeling the mask away
Chipping at this facade
Jumping from the tight rope act
Finding the person I thought was lost
Pleading for the time to be right
OnLithium Aug 23
as much as you
stabbed me in the back
as much as i
slit both of my wrists
as much as you
squeezed my heart
as much as i
claimed to be alright
suppose you should know
you can't **** something
that has already died
OnLithium Dec 2018
Heartbreak
Fueling my hands
With the richest
Form of
Getting lost
I am nothing
But the words
That I write
And now
Reality has
Blended
My life
Into dreams
Altering them
Into nightmares
I am drowning
In drink
Silence
And subtleties
The unsaid
Can’t cry
Empty eyes
And
Photographed smiles.
OnLithium Jul 15
Guilty pleasures
Rooted in
Traumatic treasures

You can either
Turn off the lights
Or we can sit
And both go to therapy
OnLithium Aug 18
please know that
i would die
if there was
a universe
that had a place
for me
so why am i
pretending i belong
in this reality
where i am not
even enough
for me
OnLithium Sep 2022
I'm working two jobs
Just to get by
Time seems to be flying
And I know why
My money goes away, so does my day
It's empty, and I mean my pockets
Have a short fuse, don't set me off
I'm like a ******* nuclear rocket
Can't seem to escape
This ****** head space
So for now I'll just keep rockin'
OnLithium Apr 5
Crawl for acceptance
Beg for indifference
You're just an investment
A mere disappointment

Never going to be
Everything you want me to be

How can I change
If I'm the same person

**** me if you desire
Let me see the brightest hellfire
OnLithium Jun 7
Daydreaming
About saying hello again
And never saying goodbye

Daydreaming
About seeing you smile
And it never fading away

Daydreaming
About playing in the stars
And never coming back down
OnLithium Jul 28
Lay my cards on the table
Only to see yours are better
Stretch my bloodied hands out
Only to see yours are clean
Hide in the cemetery
Only to see you
OnLithium Jul 8
This feeling
In the gut
The butterflies
Turn to termites
What made you
Stir inside
Is now eating
You alive
And now you are left
Rotting
OnLithium Jul 23
Where will you be
When the party ends
Metaphorically I ask
Will you be covered
In golden glitter
Or passed out in the front yard
Like a drunken ***
Will you be safe at home
Cause your friends cared
Or jumping over fences
Cause they gave up on you
Will you be the one upstairs
With someone you shouldn't
Or praying to something for help
When you thought you wouldn't
The party always ends
OnLithium Aug 15
Starting over
Is a lot like
Getting on plane
To go somewhere new
You have to rid of
Everything heavy
The baggage that
Has brought you down
You have to remember the person
In the old photo
Of your passport
You need to learn to accept
That what you know is gone
And you can drag yourself
Into visiting the past
Only to find that
Nobody else will be there waiting
OnLithium Aug 17
Tie the noose
Only to be hung upside down
Call the time
Only for the clock to rewind
Close the curtains
Only to hear calls for an encore
Reach for the gun
Only to have no ammunition
OnLithium Jun 23
You chase
Till I fall
You watch
As I tumble
You leave
When I hit
The bottom
OnLithium Jul 3
Contemplate suicide
Yet worry about death
The man I was
Died a long time ago
The man I am
Will die soon
And the man I'll become
Will die eventually
This may sound depressing
But when you realize
I'm becoming somebody
I never thought I would be
Just for her
And to eventually lay to rest
With her
You realize it's the most beautiful
Love story ever told.

Its the way
You praise me
Call me yours
Break me down
In the best way
You make me weak
And feel strong
So throw me
And hold me
Call me
Well you know
Do you feel love
When you're alone
Or is it just me
Cause you know
That I can't leave
You still thrive
In my heart to this day
But in yours
I'm just another
Body and soul
Left to decay
OnLithium Jun 30
Being remembered
Forever
Sounds like like a tall
Task
That I'm not up for
Nope
I just want to be
Forgiven
For all that I've
Caused
OnLithium Jul 2022
I shed the stress of my day
Off at the door
I shed my tears in private
So you don't see
I don't hide my emotions
Just for the sake of it
I don't tell you what is eating away
At my mind and heart
You try to see through the curtains
I don't like Hide and Seek
But if I even gave you a peek
I cannot let you see me when
What I see as me being weak
All these little things
I hope you never see
So you and I can focus
On just being we
OnLithium Jun 7
I get asked questions
That I
Have already tortured myself with
For years
I get defensive
While being offered guidance
I get fueled by false hope
That someday
I'll have the wherewithal
To wake up
Look myself in the mirror
And be okay with what I see
But for now
Therapy blows chunks.
