Trauma leaves a mark
That cannot be erased
Stays with you forever
Something not to be praised
But time is a healer
The memory with time fades
You cannot forget
What caused that trauma
That made that imprint
Which stays in your mind

I get allot of bad feelings
And no one wants to here about those
So I try to ignore them
Until they are so loud they scream at me
So I try to distract myself from them
Until they become overwhelming the only thing I can feel anymore

And then I’m just stuck feeling bad feelings that are things no one wants you to say to them with no more ways to distract myself from being left with them

I know you’re just supposed to think about something else…. I know. But I don’t know how to make bad feelings go away anymore
I am the bad feeling.

The painter never
runs out of ink. He paints till
he knows he must bleed.

My bedroom is dark


Like the place my mind takes me to when I wonder off
(This note was written by a bottle of water that if you drink from you'll only be able to speak through song after)

Nobody
i can't pick up the pieces
every time you break
i have my own
to retrieve from the floor

Hi, I went to therapy today
like everyone wants me to
I talked about all the things
I could of never stoped talking
because there are just so many things

there isn't enough time in Therapy
to talk about all the things
its not really helping me
in fact sometimes I feel worse after

but I am doing it
because everyone told me
I need it
but its not helping
its just talking about all the things and then its over
and all the things are still there overwheming me

I want to run away
I want to not be me.
the problem is not the things its me
