We're partners in crime.
We're birds of a feather.
Together until the end.

I would die for you,
And you would die for me
Because we can't survive without each other.

I'm one half,
And your one half.
Together we make a whole.

We will always be together,
No matter how far apart we are
Because we are best friends.

Silence.
No one wants to hear your voice.
No one wants to listen to the words you have to say.
They just want you to stand there and be silent.
And with every word you choke back down,
They win.
Because you stayed silent.

Silence.
It fills you up and eats you alive.
You want to speak so bad, but you don't.
But every word you don't speak
Feels like acid.
It burns, it hurts,
And yet you don't do anything about it.

Silence.
Maybe it's time to stop the silence.
Maybe it's time to fill the air around you with words.
Maybe it's time for you to take your life back.
Don't think, just speak.
Do not care about other people.
It's your life and no one has the right to silence you.
Sorry, this is not good.

Hi, I'm Worthless.
Well, that's what you tell me,
Worthless, ugly,not good enough.
Tell me, what is your definition of worthy, pretty, good enough.
You might be a person, but you have no right to make others feel like ****.

Hi, I'm Worthless.
Why do you call me worthless?
Because people like you have gotten into my mind and others minds?
Because people like you have damaged others so severely?
Because others starve themselves just to try to be skinny and pretty just like you want them to?
Because others harm themselves as a result of people like you?

Hi, I'm Worthless.
But here's the thing:
I'm not worthless.
No one in this entire world is worthless, ugly, or not good enough.
You just can't see that because you are so busy bringing others down.
No one needs to fit in your definition of worthy, pretty, or good enough.

Hi, I'm Worthless.
Wait, no I'm not, and neither is anyone else.
You can call us names and hurt us, but what you say is wrong.
Everyone is worthy, pretty, and good enough in their own way.
Everyone's world is different from yours.
So hi, I'm Not Worthless.

Depression is not a phase

This is a point i want to raise

Sufferers, do not seek attention

As the stigma likes to mention

Its a mental condition

Just as harmful as an addiction

Listen

And take it serious

*Depression is not a phase
~ my generation have degraded depression from being a mental illness to a way of seeking attention and the seriousness of the condition seems to have been lost an them (myself being part of this group)

Id like to re establish the seriousness that it actaully holds

You said that she was too fat,
But you didn't know that she was starving herself.

You said that she had too many scars,
But you didn't know that she cut herself so maybe, just maybe, she could feel alive.

You told her to die,
But you didn't know that she would actually try to die.
Sorry, this is not good. Sorry.

I am a poet because
I have seen many things.

I am a poet because
My voice has been silenced.

I am a poet because
Poetry is my voice.

I am a poet because
I am screaming, if only you would listen.
