Take Me Down
Skyler M Feb 2018
Take me down,
Into my grave,
Sing me to sleep,
And give me prayers,
To call myself home,
But he won't hear his name,
Being called from my grave,
So I kneel and weep,

So, Take me down,
To the sea,
In a watery grave,
I will lay,
As you feed me tales,
Of his everlasting love,
I called his name,
But he's not home,
So I kneel and weep,
Under the sea.

Take me down,
Into the forest,
Where time stand still,
I will stay, standing quietly,
Listening for his voice,
Among the trees,
And I call my name,
Through the trees,
But I am silent.

Take me down,
To the sand,
Let me see where I am free,
So I follow the footprints in the sand,
Because my lights are fading fast,
I don't need, his breath to stay,
In order for me to stay alive,
I slam the door and fall to the floor,
Calling his name.

Against My Soul
Skyler M Feb 2018
I made my stand,
Against my soul,
Who was looking down at the sea,
From head to toes, it believes it's unworthy,
A body of shame and mismatch.

I made my stand,
Against my soul,
Who looked up at me with a somber smile,
I knew it's plans to leap off the ledge,
But I hold it's hand and carry it back into the forest.

I made my stand,
Against my soul,
Who seemed to ponder why I was doing this,
I had to see if it could be who it needed itself to be,
Who's body was no who it needed to be.

I made my stand,
Against my soul,
Who saw what I was doing and cried of joy,
My hands once black, turned to green.
Who I needed to be was in front of me.

I made my stand,
Against my soul,
Who smiled and held my hand,
As we walked above the sea to the island.

Human
Skyler M Feb 2018
Living empty-minded, unaware of plaguing viruses to find it and mind it.
Purpose becomes worthless if you move by inches, pointing you to giant homes and dehumanizing riches.
When life hands you meaning,
Why do you run and hide from it's changing chimes?
We're living the American dream,
Access to process your every single word.

Don't like me,
Don't like you,
Well, there's something I gotta write,
Don't like this,
Don't like that.
Well, there's no thinking left living.

Follow the big white line that leads into the sea,
How corrupted could we be,
To only see the world from the pictures on the T.V.,
Sempiternal delinquent humans run to become free.
We're living the American dream,
Access to process your every opinion.

Don't like me,
Don't like you,
Well, there's something I gotta write,
Don't like this,
Don't like that.
Well, there's no thinking left living.

Seek Sunday
Skyler M Feb 2018
The wind spins me five days away from Sunday,
The very particular day when all my problems are gone and I can say what’s on my mind,
The wind blows me ten days from hell raise no matter what I ever say,
It's a depressing day when I remember that there's most likely nothing to save me now.

Conclude my story with a leap--
Of faith to cascade into the deep,
Let me go so can find my twilight sleep,
For nothing in return I will weep.

Admittance to my problems and concluding my story of fake smiles and scolding a selfish thought,
The many wars and consolation I had fought,
In contributions to happiness I had bought,
Of course I wasn't happy, not by a long shot.

Conclude my story with a leap--
Of faith to cascade into the deep,
Let me go so can find my twilight sleep,
For nothing in return I will weep.

The Willow Tree
Skyler M Feb 2018
Close your eyes and wait for stars to reveal their stories in the darkness under the large willow tree,
And heaven forbid you start to cry,
but from your eyelids ink will seep into the roots of the tree,
Giving life to the old willow tree.

Questioning why you laid here,
Underneath the spaceships in the sky,
When you could be running through the constellations,
and faulty paradises of what your mind says is real.

Close your eyes and trip along the small dipper,
To find your own head and home,
Leaving the tall willow tree to rot away in peace,
Spaceships crash and you're alone again.

Goodbye
Skyler M Feb 2018
It’s time I said goodbye, to you and your pursitless strife.
It’s fine, I’ll say goodbye.
Feb 2018 · 82
Clarity, Please
Skyler M Feb 2018
Now you're gone,
Maybe I should be too,
I asked you so many times what you see in me,
And you told me that I was kind, fun, and the best friend you've ever had.
Then you suddenly turned and you left,
Leaving me here, on the ground, with a razor in my hand.

The world doesn't seem as bright as it used to be,
Now I feel the pressure is breaking in and tumbling down,
Down the staircase where I now reside, in the basement.
The world dims out and I feel it's time for me to say goodbye.

I asked God for forgiveness, even though I don't wanna believe.
I asked Lucifer for mercy. even thought I don't wanna believe.
I asked her for some clarity, even though I might not like the answer.

The Fork in the Road
Skyler M Feb 2018
The fork in the road,
Didn't show what I thought it showed,
A divergence in thought, in personality,
Although I thought I'd never change,
I can see that the fork in the road is going to force me to.
Both have good and bad sides,
Both could hurt my soul,
Either way I might not make it out alive.

The fork in the road,
Pretended to know who it was,
Lying and deceiving about it's inner machinations,
So I turned to run the other way,
But the path was blocked so I sat on the ground,
Just to shake and whine.

5:30 A.M.
Skyler M Feb 2018
I'm confronting myself at 5:30 A.M.,
Haven't slept a wink but I have to start my day soon,
Bordering anger I look at myself in the pouring rain,
I'll ask myself, "Where have you gone, why aren't you helping me?"

I watch myself sit down, myself won't speak and I can't control him.
He doesn't want to stand anymore and his hands are shaking.
His emotions are out the door, no more.

His eyes flash violent urges,
When the night unfurls it’s grasp,
I can see he want to tell me all the things,
But he can’t find the words so I look to his hands and they’re gone, he wants to scream but he can’t so he leaves his head on the floor.

I watch myself sit down, myself won't speak and I can't control him.
He doesn't want to stand anymore and his hands are shaking.
His emotions are out the door, no more.

To The Sea
Skyler M Feb 2018
Someone grabbed a hold of my hand and took it to the edge of the stream, where it flowed so suddenly into the precipice of the sea.
I missed the chance of getting a glace at the boy but I have a feeling that he knew me and that I knew him.
He dissipated into the overwhelming vastness of the sea,
I wish that I could say that I had accomplished something that day,
But all I saw was a back of a head and a lonely, burdened sea.

I came clean and told all truths,
Can you hold my hand again,
So that I can feel no fear,
Then the sea opens me up and reveals that I have so much to...
Clear.

The time I wasted, just drunk on my pills and eradication,
For the longest time I ignored the sea, feeling like it was betraying me,
But finally the boy revealed his face to me, so I took my time and turned towards the tide where the sea was waiting for me.


I came clean and told all truths,
Can you hold my hand again,
So that I can feel no fear,
Then the sea opens me up and reveals that I have so much to...
Clear.

Lovely (Renewed)
Skyler M Feb 2018
Can't you see what I see,
You are lovely,
It's framed in my head, undoubtedly.

You light up the darkest nights,
No matter what you say,
No matter how much my edges fray.

Can't you see what I see,
You are lovely,
It's framed in my head, undoubtedly.

Your hands are wrapped in roses,
Warming up the coldest of noses,
No matter how much you oppose it.

Can't you see what I see,
You are lovely,
It's framed in my head, undoubtedly.
Why won't you believe me?

Why won't you believe me?

She Could
Skyler M Feb 2018
She could,
Dream away my fears,
She could,
Hold me tighter than the noose that I hold,
She could,
Take me on a wild ride into trouble town,
She could,
Become my high that I needed all last week,
She is,
Everything I need,
She is,
The one who saved me.
Feb 2018 · 93
Ocean
Skyler M Feb 2018
I am here in the sea,
Bogged down my curiosity,
I can’t see,
I can’t hear my own voice.

I can see the waves,
Crashing as they wash away my bones,
But my skin still remains,
I can see the sky.
I can see my hands.
I can see my eyes and they’re so numb.

I've Made up my Mind
Skyler M Feb 2018
I've made up my mind,
And there's nothing that you or my mind can do to stop me,
You may slow me down,
You may **** my lights,
But I will continue with the same passion as I feel now.

I've made up my mind,
To do something better than now,
Staying up until the early morning,
To dream of better years and nostalgic memories.

I've made up my mind,
I want to play keyboard,
And get up onto the stage,
To pour my words into the speakers,
Just to let people know that they are not alone.

I've made up my mind,
Even if I crash and burn,
No matter how much sludge,
I won't be a slave in a non-profit job,
I won't be stuck inside my own head,
I'll explore the world and see new things.

I've made up my mind,
I hope you're coming with me.
Let it be remembered...that on my 16th birthday

I told myself I'd do something more in this world.

I told myself that I'd ignore all the adults and their doubts.

I told myself that I can be better than this depressed head.

I told myself that I can make a change for the better, for myself and this world, even if it's minuscule.

I hope that when I'm 30 years old...I can see this again and smile,
because I was successful...
Just maybe...
But we'll just have to see, hm?
Feb 2018 · 185
Away
Skyler M Feb 2018
I see where I linger
Between the forestry,

My heart beats for his voice,
Between the forestry,

I scream to ask him,
I need to feel my fingertips,

So speak the words I told you to,
But my head won't give in to let me free.

Between the forestry,
I see that he is wounded,

I know that I should leave him alone,
Between the forestry,

But I need my voice to carry on,
And there's no doubting my own cowardliness.

So I go,
Go away,
Far from this place,
So I go,
Away,
Away,
Away...from him.
Feb 2018 · 75
Sky
Skyler M Feb 2018
Sky
Sing me down from the sky,
All the way from death's ledge,
I am here to be saved and I'm calling your name,
But I can't see you here so I leave without your brand,
I'm okay with living alone, I'm okay without answers,
Then there's nights when I need your touch on my shoulder,
Cause I slowly lose myself in my own winding head.
Feb 2018 · 79
Who
Skyler M Feb 2018
Who
Who will I be,
Who will I become,
When will I fly away,
When will I go home.

The lake never looked so much darker.
I used to see the bottom but now all I see is black.
I climb to the edge of the dock knowing my fate as clear as day.
I dip my hand into the water and start to fade away.

Who will I be,
Who will I become,
When will I fly away,
When will I go home.

My body feels like a mere illusion,
Wavering back and forth between common ideas and useless ideals,
The black waves rock over me until I lose my breath,
I can feel something tugging on my leg,
Urging me to sink farther.

Who will I be,
Who will I become,
When will I fly away,
When will I go home.

Resting Away
Skyler M Feb 2018
Underneath the bridge and into the misty fog,
I will search for your soul that you lost so long ago,
Time passes and I can hardly remember where I came from,
The path fades from my memory and I'll dig in the ground to find a trace of home,
Your soul won't be found by mortal hands like mine,
So I'll rest on the dirt and tear my hair out of it's roots,
So frustrating how this time I'm wasting as I know your soul is waiting in the undergrowth.

You're so cold
Can you see?
That I wish for no more pain and loss of rain,
So send me down, on my way, to find your body,
Resting away.

Flashing strobes blind me while I desperately plead that you give me one more chance for the fifth time,
On time, that's all, I'll bring your breaking mortal body to your soul,
Just don't leave me alone,
Cause I'm petrified of losing my life,
To my own *****, ***** deeds.

You're so cold
Can you see?
That I wish for no more pain and loss of rain,
So send me down, on my way, to find your body,
Resting away.

Pour
Skyler M Feb 2018
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
Sweep me into the door,
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
Drown me in more,
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
Make it pour,
I’ve made it to the shore,
Make it fall onto my heart.

Ink from the Pen
Skyler M Feb 2018
The ink from my pen spills onto the sand,
My hands drop down to scoop it all up,
Like an addict with *******, I'm enraptured by the pain,
So I'm getting it tattooed into the page that sits inside my head,
The ink in the sand spreads into the sea,
Blackening it all so that I can dip myself inside,
I submerge myself in the ink-water, smiling as I breathe in the liquid,
Exhaling colorful water to keep myself alive and well.

Rainfalls in Hometown
Skyler M Feb 2018
Rain falls so often where I stay to live,
So I walk outside and talk to the sky,
Contriving my words so that I might be lying,
To myself and the dark grey sky beyond,
Then I lay down on the wet grass and pick at the greens,
In worry, in thought, so distraught, that I'm in this disarray,
Distraught, that I taught the thoughts to flock to death and distress,
My hands are cold and wet with raindrops that I like to call teardrops,
I talk to myself and the dark grey sky beyond,
Drops falling into my eyes so that I can see a little clearer the next day,
Then I begin to sing, "La-da-la-da-la-la."
Then I begin to sing, "La-da-la-da-la-la."
Feb 2018 · 130
Hope to Live
Skyler M Feb 2018
If you're asking me where I'm going tonight,
I won't tell the truth cause I think you know the answer,
I've told the stories of how I'd stare at bathroom stalls until I fell into sleep,
Things don't seem as bright as they used to be and the flowers don't hold the key to happiness in the world,
I've told the stories of how I'd lose myself in blade reflections until I dozed off into sleep,
But I know that I fought a good fight and I'll keep fighting it until my true dying days,
I hope that I never lose myself to my own hands and head.
Feb 2018 · 203
Tonight
Skyler M Feb 2018
Your eyes were so cold, unenamored by your world that was cascading into the sky.
I tried my best to give you what you wanted but I was just a small child.
You were falling so fast and I was watching it all go down.
Behind broken mirrors I could see you hated yourself and everyone who dared to call you family.
Never close enough to hold you but enough to see you were broken,
The drugs and the alcohol starving your system of love and care.
A shell of apathy, a sheep's ghost among wolves.

Now, I ask of you to, let me into your head to take that pain.
You're my friend and that won't ever change as long as you don't push me away.
Now, I ask of you to, let me hold you tight tonight.
Tonight.

Johnny Kid
Skyler M Feb 2018
Johnny Kid, where were you when she laid in her nursing home,
Drained of life and anesthetized with morphine,
She called for you, Johnny Kid, while you were drunk on Woodland Boulevard,
Her spine frail and weak, breathing heavy and unanswered,
Johnny Kid, you've been getting into the nose candy and momma ain't happy,
She's still resting on her plastic sheets, only seconds away from the forever sleep,
Poor Johnny Kid, looks like he might overdose, on the morphine he stole from the nursing home,
Now momma closes her eyes in disappointment, suddenly she's never waking up and Johnny Kid's hitting the road again.

Midnight Frames
Skyler M Feb 2018
I refrain as my frame,
Continuously lies as I let out many unforgiving sighs,
I notice the water is deeper so I falter,
Then he calls me blasphemous as I become slowly passionless,
But that's just fine cause I don't need to follow him into the hollow,
I've got time to strive for my lifeline.
Feb 2018 · 70
So It Runs Away
Skyler M Feb 2018
Hope goes out the window to run for the sun,
It's sinking into the ground so far away,
So it's around this time when I find my hands becoming cold,
Then my head being strung onto the curtains,
The sense of control is gone from my grasp,
My eyes are permanently shut as I curl into my bed,
I asked the Lord for perseverance again,
Then I remember I don't believe and He'll never answer my calls,
So I grab the hidden razors and slit my eyes open,
I can see the nightmares walking around telling and stalling my planned death,
But nothing seems right as the rain falls into my room.
I cry out, please, help me.
I shout out my words, help me.
I scream my sentences, help me.
Feb 2018 · 69
Two Hands
Skyler M Feb 2018
Two hands will start bleeding again,
They don’t have a body only a stump,
They bleed colorful liquid onto the carpet of my room,
As I try to stitch them up,
They fall apart as I crash into the floor,
Melding into the carpet and messy clothes,
The hands start to flood my room,
I’m drowning in the rainbow syrup,
The hands are dead on the floor once more,
It’s time for me to fade.
Feb 2018 · 80
Chair
Skyler M Feb 2018
I'm darting towards a chair,

Out of the many wooden chairs,

That are surrounding my head, body, and the chair that I target,

I stand on the chair out of the many other chairs,

I'm seeing other shadows standing on chairs,

They seem to be searching for a better chair than mine,

But that's okay cause I like my wooden chair,

It's enough to keep my eyes above the seas of leaves,

I look out among the waves of shadow people,

As they climb onto very particular chairs,

Perhaps in the ocean of all that can be seen,

The wobble of my chair distracts me from the beings,

I sit into the chair because I fear I might fall,

The chair becomes my humble abode as I stare into the leaves,

As they welcome me into sleep.
Feb 2018 · 143
A Night in the Forest
Skyler M Feb 2018
A night in the forest has been due for some time,
All those internal urges to scream and cry,
The times I wanted to dig a hold and die,
So I can tell you that a night in the woods would do me good.

A night in the woods would give me closure,
I don't have to feel the emotions that run down my spine,
Finding a shovel would be impossible in the ebony night,
This I why I say that a night in the forest is required.

But even a night in the woods would tear me down,
My eyes cannot see what is in front of me,
In the darkness of the forest I could fall into one of those holes,
Maybe a night in the forest isn't worth it.

We Write These Poems
Skyler M Feb 2018
I write these poems,
In hope that others see my message and agree,
I write these poems,
With thought and dig deep so that everyone can find meaning,
I write these poems,
Yet all I see continue to trend are the simple, love, and twisted.
I write these poems,
But I get discouraged as I see others like me, who breath words like oxygen and pour it out onto the page,
I write theses poems,
They do it well yet all they have is one like and a look.
We write these poems.
Feb 2018 · 92
Pretty Sir
Skyler M Feb 2018
You are so sure,
That you hold the key to unlock the meaning,
To your life and everything in the clouds,
I encourage you to fly away into your own body,
The stronger you believe yourself to be, that'll be how strong you'll become.

Tell me pretty sir,
What’s your preferred name,
They all call you James,
But you wanna be a nightmare or a night-scare.

They all hold you back but I'm here to tell you,
You're the sky itself so grab a hold of the lightning and the rain,
You have everything under your own mind,
Who cares if they take away the clouds,
The time has come for you to breath in plumes of life.

Tell me pretty sir,
What’s your preferred name,
They all call you James,
But you wanna be a nightmare or a night-scare.

Stranded
Skyler M Feb 2018
I’m stranded on this wooden raft,
Surrounded by the ghosts of the deep,
My body is falling apart with every move I make to keep myself awake,
Eyes stare me down from the waves above me,
They never could crash down onto me,
But I’m asking politely, please.
The dark waters call my name,
I’m asking myself if this is what I was meant to be all this time,
I can taste the blood welling into my mouth,
Cause nothing tastes as I want it to anymore.

I’m calling you down,
From your hiding place,
Please.
Save me.
Feb 2018 · 92
Change
Skyler M Feb 2018
I will try to avoid those eyes,
But now I'm here to give you words as to use,
To teach you how to live,
And take your pain to turn it into something memorable,
And take your anger to turn it into beauty.
Feb 2018 · 63
Sand
Skyler M Feb 2018
There's something peeking through my window,
On the third floor of the building,
I can feel it's breath against the window,
I begin to feel the fear,
Rise up into my throat.
Quickly I disintegrate into the tiny grains of sand,
that litter my dark bedroom floor,
My frame is shrinking and I’m sinking,
Oh so patiently,
Into the billions of grains of sand,
I find something stuck inside the grains,
There's a bottle in the sand and it's sealed beyond opening,
When I try to pop the cap it laps through time and I'm back on the floor inside on my bathroom floor,
The blood won't stop when I plead it to,
Miles of bottles and I keep picking the wrong one,
My eyes play tricks on me to make believe that I can see the end of the earth,
My hopes arise but the cap screws itself back on.
And I'm gone.
Feb 2018 · 87
Deny
Skyler M Feb 2018
I will deny you for years,
Well I'm sorry that I'm leaving the kingdom,
But I can't keep myself here to fall much longer,
Lord, let me die in your arms and I will tell you to revive me,
Then when I see you here I will believe you are with me.
Feb 2018 · 76
Don't Be Gone
Skyler M Feb 2018
Don't be gone,
Don't be gone,
You're worth life,
Don't be gone,
Don't be gone,
You are lovely,
Don't be gone,
Don't be gone.

She
Skyler M Feb 2018
She
She fell so hard,
So fast,
And I never even cared,
Even in the darkest nights when I gagged and bound her,
Trying to show her the meaning of my sand,
I try to give her a place to show herself to me,
But her head is enveloped in water so she only sees,
What she wants to see.
Feb 2018 · 72
Volcanic Sand
Skyler M Feb 2018
In the darkness of the volcanic sand,
It's pitch black words sink into my soul,
As I find my peace between it's grains,
But I can't pull it out from there.
Feb 2018 · 140
All She Can
Skyler M Feb 2018
All she can see are the black clouds,
The rolling thunder,
The falling rain,
All she'll ever know is how to lose to a landslide,
The shifting mud,
The ***** sand,
All I'll ever know is that I wasn't good enough
Feb 2018 · 67
Stick Around
Skyler M Feb 2018
For me to stick around,
I'd have to be cured of this disease,
I'd have to be crucified and put on display,
For me to stick around,
I'd have to find my own peace,
I'd have to fine the white kingdom,
For me to stick around.

My Poison
Skyler M Feb 2018
Things are getting slower,
Time running down to a stop at the red lights,
The car thinks there's something wrong with them,
So it runs on it's own depression,
My legs are faltering as I attempted to pour more gas,
All I did was start a fire,
My charred hands try to take a hold of the wheel but the car has other plans,
I inject poison into my veins to hope I can hear my existence once again.
Feb 2018 · 95
Unsatisfactory Poem
Skyler M Feb 2018
Who do I know enough to say that I can’t walk any farther on these legs?
Why can’t I tell them that I’m falling so far?
My hands are ensnared in a trap of my mind’s own making,
I want to take up your time to say that I am ready to leave this world,
But I refrain because my frame is so close To the car waiting for me on the side of the road.
Feb 2018 · 91
Save Me
Skyler M Feb 2018
Save me...

I’m so lost
I’m so gone
Save me...

I’ve lost my voice
I’ve lost my sight
Save me, please
Save me, please

I Need
Skyler M Feb 2018
I need something to breath for me,
I need something to **** for me,
I need something to feel for me,
I need something to see for me,
I need something to walk for me,
I need something to cry for me,
I need something to **** me.

Light
Skyler M Feb 2018
Something pulls my feet from underneath the river's surface,
My eyes are drawn to a bright light at the other side,
It flashes mesmerizing colors and I'm leaning into the water,
My hands outreach for it's splendor as I truly start to render it's beauty,
I slip into the river and swim towards the light,
The tugging at my feet grows stronger as I get closer,
But I'm already on shore and I'm holding onto it's existence tightly,
The light glimmers as I hold it close in loving comfort,
I pray to whatever created me that it'll never leave me here to wallow underneath the river.

Down
Skyler M Jan 2018
Strike me down,
Bring your lightening,
Pour the blood over my still body,
I've contradicted my own story enough times,
You can strike me down,
Bring your holy spirit to me,
And burn your marks into my ribs forevermore.

Brick Road
Skyler M Jan 2018
It's always ending at the little brick road by the creek,
In my dreams I will laugh in despair cause it's not fair,
What the trees like to believe is that I am there for my dying days,
The problem is that they might be right but I can't tell,
Cause my fists are numb and there might be some razors buried inside,
My fair skin begins to bleed cause I've been running away with common sense.

Big Black Sea
Skyler M Jan 2018
I'm breathing in this oxygen,
Getting high on letter knives,
Faking smiles and happiness.

They think I'm a goner,
Never getting back onto dry land,
I'm lost in this ******* sea,
So, yeah, I agree.

It can feel like the world will end,
When everything's not at my fingertips,
I've got life to live ahead,
and I won't be taking it for granted.

They think I'm a goner,
Never getting back onto dry land,
I'm lost in this ******* sea,
So, yeah, I agree.

Cab
Skyler M Jan 2018
Cab
Here in the dark I will park,
My cab and pray that it will not get blown away,
I let the engine run as I continue my search for more,
The cab then begins its journey as it suddenly contrives,
Through lightless tunnels and pouring rain on the shores,
It stops in front of a light and I’m blinded by the sheen,
I suddenly find that I am scared of what I’ve been searching for,
I figure out that I cannot take the wheel so I backpedal into the trunk,
I feel the cab start to move and I’m terrified for my life,
I peek out of the crack and see the back of a man’s head,
He claims his life depends on me so he’s helping me drive away the light that blinded my own space,
His hands are not even there and I know that he lied,
But I sit inside the trunk and plead towards the morning sun,
The cab finds it in itself to stop by the riverside,
Ignoring the man up front,
I follow the steps in the sand,
I turn around to say, “I’m walking towards the morning sun to find if my doom is washed away and all I did was completely undid.”
So I leave him in the cab as he cries out for my hand,
But I’ve found what I’ve been searching for and I don’t need his say.
