Well fuck me.
Anna Jul 2013
I woke up,
My body's ******
And I'm a shittastic
Failure.

I'm ripping at my hair
Anna Jul 2013
Why
   the
      ****
     Is
   it
So
   Wrong
       To
Feel.
Anna Jul 2013
These words tangle me,
they're the only sound
I've ever seen
that says exactly what I mean
and at the same time
exactly nothing.

I'm so fucking sorry

"why do you have so many cuts?"
i throw things.
i clutch my chest.
because nothing ever matches this,
nothing ever does!

To the skull bound myth:
Anna Jul 2013
I still know
Exactly who you are
And just who
You were.

Symbology
Anna Jul 2013
I put out
Cigarettes on my fingertips
To 'pass the torch'
And echo the way that smoke drifts
With every letter
That finds reality
Between my blistered thumbs
And cellphone keys.

Nine inches.
Anna Jul 2013
I'd be gay,
Too
If i had to take
(pictures of)
your ****.
He apologized for his phone being 'gay'.
Anna Jul 2013
Spin me stories
like leaves
that I can kiss and pull off
of trees
that flourish
or are withering
because both fruits have
so much value
to me.
Anna Jul 2013
I went to therapy
Drunk as ****
and thanked God for
All his blessings.
All my scars sitting softly on my wrists,
The silver still kissing my paled hips,
The welts on my legs,
The blistered words that
spin circles on my lips.
I just left confused.
If God's still out there-
he let me be used.
I dont know how I feel,
but alone in death or not-
someone let me be
So ******* abused.

Trauma.
Anna Jul 2013
It takes a buzz
for me to be happy
For the feel of any feeling
besides misery and pain
and the carpet
and a little girls shame.
As sad as it is-
these aching old memories
are still a bleeding stain.

Addiction.
Anna Jul 2013
Take another hit,
another sip-
just for that ******* second
of gorgeousness.
When what you knew was never there
besides another fight,
Escape becomes your only chance and
Drugs become your right.
The worst thing is
I know they're mine
and I even see the signs-
when all I have is crumbling-
when ***** is divine.
I'm losing thought
And everything
I thought that I would need-  
It hurts me every time
I wake
and every time I see.
Jul 2013 · 269
And I hate knowing it.
Anna Jul 2013
Baby, I can break you
And be your
Poison everything.
But in the end, remember-
You never even
Got a real taste of me.

When the
bruised moon
wanes,
I feel so ******* abandoned.
Anna Jul 2013
one day
your soul will break.
You will be
forsaken.
deserving of nothing,
no home,
no skin for
blistered bones.

words to myself
Anna Jul 2013
I'm such
A piece of
****.*
Get drunk and get over it.
Anna Jul 2013
Sometimes
the only poetic thing
I can think
is
'I
miss
home. '

I'll hold your hand
If you can make me fall
Or get me to stand again.
Anna Jul 2013
"you're shaking, ***."
she wears a concerned look.
"It's my meds. "
I ******* hate myself.
"You've been in bed all day."
I close my eyes to nausea
to pain
"Yeah. Sick."*
My whole mind and body quakes
I'm a monster,
in the midst of eternal transfiguration
I'm in withdrawal.

My kind of romance.

Let's dance to oldies
*******

At five in the morning.

Kyle.
Anna Jul 2013
We're both just
Bitter children
Upset with ideology,
Waiting for correction
Or some type
Of answered question

Haunting
Anna Jul 2013
Ghosts fall at the altar
For you on loan,
Begging to be taken home
stop her! stop her!
Leave our throne.
Ghosts don't help
When you're
Alone.

The moon is full right now.
Anna Jul 2013
There is no urgency
in living in
A well adjusted reality.
Just obligations
and timed machinery.
I think it's so ******* wrong.

Rehab therapy
Anna Jul 2013
I showed up
Already drunk.
Anna Jul 2013
You don't have to worry,
I can live without your sympathy
Disorder is my norm, really.
*Just stop telling me to put on pants.
Anna Jul 2013
People
Will say anything
To try and make a sick kid
Feel better
*I love you.

What sticks with me.
Anna Jul 2013
"I just want to see you smile like that. Just once."**
I tried not to be struck by that comment.
I never realized how
Transparent
Depression is.
Six years since- so many years beforehand. I'm sorry I can't be what you've imagined.
Anna Jul 2013
I don't want to be
that broken girl
anymore.
I'm sick of what I've done.
I'm sick of drunk sleeping
On a strangers floor.

I got a new sketch book.
Anna Jul 2013
I'm drawing ships
And skeletons
On the first blank page
While I drink to
Anything that suits a sip-
Which is everything at this stage.

Indigo.
Anna Jul 2013
He smells like
The colors of
A saturated midnight
Ocean.
As he walks past,
The impression of rich
Hints
Of jasmine, violet,
Chilly blues,
And tiny sips of grey
Wash over me.
The boy could drown
Himself
In the depth of
His hues.

Girl not of the world
Anna Jul 2013
The sun will always miss her
And the sea will always beg
The stars just want to kiss her-
But she only wants a friend.

No rest for my weary head
Anna Jul 2013
It's three in the morning
Again.
I'm awake still.
Weary
And so ******* tired.
But things are the same as they've always been.

Falling
Anna Jul 2013
Don't beg me to stay
When you're torturing me
And we're falling away
Like coins dropped out at sea.
Anna Jul 2013
In case you didn't know-
I can be so ******* beautiful.

I started getting drunk
At eleven in the morning.

God, I hate his eyes.

I chase every mouthful
Of *****
With a splash of
Bright blue eyed
Memory.

I don't do relationships
Anna Jul 2013
Because
It's easier
To believe in
A good ****
Than
True love.

Feigning
Anna Jul 2013
******* help me
I can't breathe.
I need a hit.
Not another line of ****** poetry.

My mouth tastes of res and
Yesterdays alcohol.
Sour.
*Depression
Is a

Sink.

Let me sink
As your own
Little ship
Of half-drawn cannons
And frowning lips.

All I could ever ask for.

Alcohol is
My anguish-
Agony-
My ******* Lucifer
Saving me and
leaving me empty.

To feel.
Anna Jul 2013
Oh god,
Let me carve again-
I was made without your mark,
Bathed in too much flesh
And tiny breaths
To fully feel alive.
Jul 2013 · 437
I was a ghost.
Anna Jul 2013
Ill be your little ghost
If you can keep the light intact
We were children playing games
Until the moonlight turned it's back
please, just let me be
You tore at silence
to diminish what I lacked.
A myth, you stripped
The little ghost of what
small things she still had.

My midnight ponderings.
Anna Jul 2013
Little loveless Juliet
She sits and burns another cigarette
While thinking of new ways
To push feelings far away.

Mood disorder.
Anna Jul 2013
When I was small
I was afraid that a monster
Would cut me up
Eat me alive
Or hold me captive.
As I got older,
I grew into that foreign being
Cutting,
Eaten away by bred in thoughts,
Holding myself captive in
A tortured mind.
It makes me sick
When people say
Monsters don't exist.

Sirens
Anna Jul 2013
The sirens sing us songs
Of waves that crash and call us home
And how the depths are worth it just to be
The brightest star beneath the sea.

sell out.
Anna Jul 2013
I miss when my poems
Were laced with political emotion
And my rhymes rang true
To the tune of societal revulsion
When my veins felt like burning cities
And I craved diverting from man
I guess people all have moments
When they turn away from where they used to stand.
Jul 2013 · 206
You really have no chance.
Anna Jul 2013
Tell me where trouble goes
So I can laugh about the things
Your type of trouble doesn't know.

Autumn
Anna Jul 2013
Take me to autumn
To illustrate the way
Innocence flees,
Dripping blood red
Horrific memories
Concealed in
Gorgeous leaves
