Mend

Mend

I try not to fall
And you know,
I'm really good at it

I don't ever fall
Because I'm the type of person
Who always breaks

They always pick me up
And mend me once again
Then push me back out there

They call it love
Call it pleasant
Call it heaven

And I promise them
That this time
That's what I'll find

But I've fallen again
And I'm so sorry
Not for me
But for them
Because their is no worse thing than seeing

A friend whom you can not mend.

You mustn’t forget

If you don’t you’ll regret
Write

I'm afraid I'm obsessed
Write
Write
Write
Or slightly possessed
Write
Write
Write
You must do it with order
Write
Write
Write
Or the words will get stuck
Write
Write
Write
To make the voices stop
Write
Write
Write
I have to get them out
Write
Write
Write
Afraid of my own thoughts
Write

Write*
I am prisoner to my mind

Please someone help me

I Don't Love You Anymore

I Don't Love You Anymore

I don't love you any more

Nor do I love you any less
With you I feel I have reached the peak
Of pure happiness

That's why I really can't stand you

Being all by yourself
Need you to be here with me
And nobody else

Because I hate you

Being away from me
If this is all a test of time
I've failed it miserably

It's all over

Written on my face
The love I have for you my dear
Could never be replaced

So yes I don't love you any more*

Nor do I love you any less
Because without you to keep me grounded
*We both know my life would be a mess

I've Got You (Where I Want You)

I've Got You (Where I Want You)

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  I'm going to do with you how I please

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  Get ready to cry out for relief

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  I'm going to hug you tight and squeeze

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  You'll only have eyes for me

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  Your desire will be to never leave

Now that I've got you
            where I want you
                  It's only you that I do see

But if I stop
            and think about it
                  It might be you who's gotten me

Things Within

Things Within
(A poem on Depression)

Things within are hard to see
But we feel them deep inside
When others ask how we are
We smile and tell them lies

Things within our inner thoughts
That seem to never go away
Emotions that cannot be stopped
We hear them each and every day

Things within that no one knows
And we hope they never do
Many different parts of life
We hide from daily view

Things within we must let go
Like the demons from our past
We try to push them far away
And hope they don't come back

Things within they can be changed
If we share them with a few
Know many others have things within
It is not just only you

We all have things within

Carl Joseph Roberts

This poem written in response to the Dread Poet Roberts who is having a poetry contest to bring awareness to the issue of depression. Although the Dread Poet Roberts has my last name, He/She is no relation to me at all. The poem is meant to bring light to depression and how some feel it deep inside every day and must attempt to hide it. The every day struggle to overcome. No matter what, never think you are alone.

Tattered

At first you were always there.
Every special day was just you and me.
Then life happened and you had to leave.
Every day became less full of you
And more full of just memories.
It's been a little more than half my lifetime
Since you decided to end it all.
And I wonder if you can see
All the holes you left in me.

It's like my mem ries are fad ng,
Until there's n thing left at all.
P eces of my he rt are lost compl tely,
*And th re's no heal ng for my soul.

SPECKTATOR

Nothing's right
Nothing's wrong
Sitting back watching the play
Sitting back in the lyrics of the song
Listening to the voices long since past
Wondering, Waiting
How long will it last
The final scene,
The last stanza,
The tragic end,
What will it all mean
The learning,
The giving,
The pretending,
Unspoken understanding
It's all part of living

~~~~~And the wheels keep spinning~~~~~
