Alaska Aug 2017
How long has it been
since I last left my house?
Didn't let anyone in,
didn't go out.

Day after day
I sat in silence,
tryna find a way
out of my shyness.

Tried to get back some energy,
but all I found
was apathy
so on I drowned.

Swallowed by the darkness,
unaware of my surroundings.

It could've been a day
or a year,
I wouldn't be able to say,
how long it's actually been.

and now
my nightmares come true
and now
i'm actually losing you

thank you
for your part in my journey
i say
as a tear rolls down my cheek

thank you
for keeping up with me
when
i couldn't even stand myself

without you
i wouldn't be here anymore
without you
i wouldn't have hope anymore

but now
that you leave
i'm stuck here
trying to believe

trying to survive
Part of an imaginative good-bye letter
Alaska Aug 2016
and suddenly
i realize
you are my little star
which sadly
means
i'll only see you from far
away

there is this thing
in your eyes
that not even a philosopher
can describe
Alaska Aug 2016
the girl sitting next to the door
frequently
tapping her feet on the floor
when you look her in the eyes
she'll hide her face and look away
what would you say if you'd recognize
her body's just made of anxiety

my eyes are dancing
over the glittering sea
the wind is glancing
the sparkling beach
sand in my eyes
salt in my hair
mountains so high
a whistling in the air
for perfection it strives
and i think
that must be life
Alaska Aug 2016
I tremble as I open my eyes,
Is this reality or is it just a dream,
Am I even alive?

My head hurts,
I wanna scream,
But I can't put my thoughts into words
When I open my mouth,
There's nothing but silence.

No words to come out,
I have nothing to say.
Oh I have so much to say.

But all those thoughts,
Will never become words.
They belong to me,
They'll stay in mind,
For all eternity.
