Faces
Zefi Jan 2021
Inside my mind, inside my dreams
Faces roam around free
They laugh, they cry, they die inside
They live, they share
But I don’t seem to care
They scream and wail
I take my gun and prey
I bring to my head
It brings me to my end
And finally, god, finally
They stay silent…

Away
Zefi Nov 2020
i want to touch the sky
i want to feel the clouds resting on my palm
my eyelids get heavy
they carry the weight of the world
i am so very tired
i stay wake
even though my desire is to fly
to vanish
to be free
maybe to be remembered

Magic Pills
Zefi Dec 2020
"You don't need them"
she says almost angry
"easy solution" she calls them
But she does not know
every night when i close my eyes
i dream a little dream of death
and the life i live
it is for her
and not for myself
So i'm left hanging
by the thread of her doubt
i do not know how much longer it can hold me…

Sleep
       Sleep
             Sleep
maybe then i won't feel
maybe then it won't hurt
maybe then everything will STOP

Broken
Zefi Nov 2020
tasked
their pieces on the ground
scattered
all over the carpet
i marvel at their broken facade
it speaks to me
tasked
i pick their pieces
my frail fingers hold them gently
i hold them against the sun
beautiful
the only word to describe them
tasked
i try to glue them with my tears
i hold them against their broken face
against their broken heart
and i wither when they won't stay
tasked
i always do this
i fix the broken
i hold their pieces
i ignore the pain
but i won't look in the mirror
there lies my truth
my image reflects their's
my broken pieces lay on the carpet
i try to match them to Their cracks
and i end up more broken than i was
tasked
will someone ever do the same for me?

Life Worth Living
Zefi Nov 2020
little tiny holes
my body full of them
a piece of myself someone took
give
is all know
they keep it
or they throw it away
but still i feel nothing
empty is all
i cry but feel nothing
run over
beaten down
walked all over
still i say nothing
i can't reach out
i'm drowning in my thoughts
getting up feels like a task
i put a face up
they think i'm fine
i learned to be this way
tired
maybe this should come to an end...
post a picture
laugh at the tv
sing a song
but the smile doen't reach the eyes
maybe i'm broken
i'm creating my problems
i'm craving attention
i don't even now anymore
i hold  on for others
is that a life worth living?...

— The End —
