People say my poems are deep
But I don't see what they see
I'm just writing down my feelings
So they can see the real me

They can't hear it when I talk
But they can see it when I write
I'm giving up on whats left of me
But ima keep trying to fight

I may seem happy but I'm dying
Trying to fight back the tears
I can't defeat my demons
They know all of my fears

But I keep a smile on my face
And my feelings deep inside
Cause on paper is the only place
I do not have to hide

The world
Laura langston May 2018
Im trying to escape
This world has been so cruel to me
No matter where i hide
It just aint like it used to be

Fighting for my life
In a place full of so much hate
Nowhere left to go
In a world where they descriminate

The world is broken
And everyone may not recover
We're falling apart
But only the little people suffer

We'll still fight
Through all the blood and tears
The world goes on
As we get controlled by fears

Im a complicated person
I expect a lot for me
I want someone in my life
That is willing to die for me

I dont mean my family
Cause i know that they got me
Im talking bout my forever
Someone thats not gone lie to me

Its easy to say you love me
But actions speak louder
Ima need proof of your love
And i dont mean a flower

Roses and chocolates aint ****
I need to see how really you feel
If love is on your tongue
Get a ring so i know its real

Suicide
Laura langston May 2018
Driven mad by society
Now I suffer from anxiety
Fighting for survival
But I became suicidal

Looking for protection
As I battle this depression
But no one seemed to care
Yeah, no one was ever there

The cuts on my wrist
And the bruises on my fists
Are just a small price to pay
For the happiness I crave

Fighting pain with pain
Comes with very little gain
Except for the small grin
That comes at the very end

A smile before I end it
And no one could prevent it
Well they could, but didn't try
Now they sit and wonder why

Feelings
Laura langston May 2018
I didnt know how to say it
So ima write it down for you
Not sure how to do that
So let me spell it out for you

You left me broken down
With no one left to turn to
After everything i went through
You said i dont deserve you

I loved you from the start
And all you did was leave me
After all the love i gave you
You said you dont believe me

I thought your heart was mine
But you lied about that too
But i guess that i was stupid
For thinking i had you

— The End —
