like suicide
anita Jul 14
beautiful boy with the golden eyes
please don’t make me cry
the weight of your words changed my life
these feelings I have
I’ve never felt til tonight
in this moment it’s like suicide
taking my life
the decision’s all mine
I suppose it’s a toxic love
that’s really all I know
but I’m in it til the end
I won't let go
can't seem to quit you.

watching you walk by
i can’t speak
you’ve got me tongue tied
what will it take
to erase you
you haunt my
withering mind
you came back. they said you would

you
are my weapon of choice
and i have
a death wish
who knew you could **** me
so easily?
every word you speak
feels like a razor to my skin
why don’t i stop
the bleeding?
self punishment/when you realize you’re not as important to someone as you thought you were

alone in my thoughts
anita Feb 2023
sometimes my hardest nights are my best ones.
the nights where i am lonely, but not alone
the nights where i stare up at the sky
and see all those stars
and i realize that the world is so infinite
the nights that remind me that we are all just trying our best
and we all feel like strangers in our own bodies sometimes
and that despite how much we try to convince ourselves otherwise,
things
will
be
okay
i can't get out of my head

not a poem, a rant.
anita Jul 2020
i am tired.
tired of life, i guess.
every day seems to drag on, page by page.
i am slowly withering away.
i don't even pretend anymore, because pretending is exhausting
and i don't have the energy.
i think i want to die but really, i just want to live again.
i am worried about myself.
i am worried about where i am going.
i just need help.
i just need someone..

i am tired.
and i wish it would just go away.

slip away
anita May 2020
i will wait here
patiently
tell me we're wrong
but i will still hold on
i would wait
forever
just to feel your touch
don't slip away from me yet
my love
i finally found you and i don't want to let go

just a thought
anita Dec 2019
i think
if someone told me
"i hope you never find love" or
"i hope you never find happiness"
rather than "i hope you die"
is probably the only thing that could really break
me
because a life without happiness
and love
and fulfillment is
a pitiful life







besides, we're all going to die anyway.
if anyone actually reads this, this actually happened to me. people can be bold lol

memories
anita Jan 2019
reminders can be quite important.

for example,
when you are sitting alone
feeling sorry for yourself,
it is a nice reminder to reread words you have written
and remember that you need to pick yourself up,
and that things will be okay.
the most important words come from within,
and it is quite motivating to be your own inspiration.

when you feel lost,
it is nice to be reminded that you are whole
and eventually things that are lost will be found
and life works in inexplicable ways
and sometimes,
it's even better than you had imagined.

and even if you can't bring yourself to see,
it is okay.
you will be okay.
the timing will never be wrong.
because days end and seasons pass
but memories last forever.
i will be okay someday soon i can feel it

you had me
anita Mar 2018
and there we were
for one second rushing through millions, time felt like it had just...stopped
and it was just us
it was your lips on my neck
and your fingers pressed on my skin
it was our clothes strewn on the floor and my legs brushing up against you
it was the feeling of being desperately needed that filled the air around us
and engulfed our bodies

...you had me, then. you had all of me.

words i wish i had heard
anita Jan 2018
because
they will not kiss your scars
and will not say
the right things
at the right times
even if you are crying
devastated
and
God will not
project down from the heavens
to hold you
and speak, and tell you
you are strong
(you must know this
on your own)
life will not stop for you
even when
you are begging
gasping for air
drowning in reality
endlessly in self doubt
but
you must know
**** the ones who made you cry
**** a God who stands in silence
as you pray, worship
for nothing
you are not weak because of him
you are not strong through Him
you are
beautiful
and lovely
and strong
because of
you
(and i think
that is pretty extraordinary)

— The End —
