I am stuck in sand with
The tide is rushing in
I can see those around me
Running and playing
I scream for help
But not one sound leaves my lips
I try one more time
Summoning all my strength
But my efforts are in vain
I see the ride coming
Faster
Higher
Stronger than before
Helpless and afraid
I take my final breath
Looking around I still can see
Others they look right trough me
As if I were invisible
Slowly I admit defeat
And fade away with the ride.

Night Thoughts
B Aug 2014
I remember how it felt;
You fingers slowly touching my skin.
I can still hear the way you said
"I'll never let you go"

But I lay here and wonder
"Why did you let me go?"
Was it something I did or said?
Or did you decide I was no longer worth it?

As I close my eyes I still see
The way your sapphire eyes looked into mine.
My eyes open and I'm overcome with pain
Why did you leave me?

What Really Fucked Me Up
B Aug 2015
Never will I forget this day

I was 12
Playing in my neighbors back yard
We jump roped, played hopscotch
I was happy

One day we were listening to the radio
Singing, dancing and laughing
He called us inside to have lunch

His hand wrapped around the small of my back
I flinched, my heart stopped
Something was wrong
and I did not know yet what it was

He asked his daughter to leave the room
As I began to leave with her
I was demanded to stay
as the door locked, my heart dropped I couldnt breathe

He looked so pleased with him self as his eyes looked me up and down
I tried to run
He grabbed my wrists and threw me on the floor

What happened next forever changed me
I can not get the images out of my head
Did he know how much he would mentally **** me up?
Does he know the mental issues I now suffer because of him?

Did he know that years down the road
When I was finally married to the love of my life
and he would try to hold my hand or kiss my forehead
I'd flinch in fear?

Many times has my husband held me while I sobbed in our bed
He watched me suffer through this pain
and deal with me being so torn up inside
it kills him.

What really ****** me up
was when I was 12
and I learned that the world is cruel
You will be abused and hurt

And no one will stop it from happening.
Triggering to some.
I had to write this to get this out of my system
B Aug 2014
You told me you were scared
You ran your fingers through my hair
And grabbed onto my hand
"Please never let me go"

When you told me you were scared
You never said what of
I assumed it was from a dream
Or monsters in the closet

I now read the letter you wrote
Of what scared you most
It was the visions in your head
The thoughts of pain and ending it all

I now sit here reading the note you left
Telling me the things that scared you
That leaving me and hurting me
Were one of them

But now I'm scared and I don't have you
That was the last time
I fell apart in your arms
And felt free

And I swore to you
I'd be the one to hold us together
But now
I'm the reason were falling to pieces

Memories come back
The way you touched me
Electricity burning through my skin
Never wanting to stop

Maybe if I didn't raise my voice
And scream in your face
Maybe if I tried a little harder
To be a better me

But it's all me
I lost my temper
There's no sunshine after the rain
Just more overcast days

That turn into gloomy nights
Full of self hatred
Regret shame
I promise I'll never raise my voice again

I guess I never knew
The effect I had
In this battle of love and hate
But I'm starting to learn

B Aug 2014
Knees to chest, sitting on the floor
Slowly rocking forward to back
Breathing slowing and fading
I can not feel

The devil on the left says
"Do it. You'll feel again."
The devil on the right says
"End your pain. Take the jump."

Where is the angel
The angel who is suppose to save
The angel that will make me feel
Like I am of worth and I am okay

Either way
I am doomed to destruction
My sight changes to the devil
I look to the left

The lighter burns in my hand
Everything is slow motion
Slowly touching the flame
To my pale skin

A rush of relief
Runs through my bones
My heart pounding fast
My body becoming weak

The devil on the left says
"Don't you feel better?"
But I don't.
So I lay in bed

With a new battle wound
From a war I lost against myself  
As I lay to sleep
I go back to where I once was

Lost
Alone
Afraid
Numb.

I crave the gentle kiss of the blade against my skin
Whispering sweet words of comfort and relief
"No one will understand, I can heal your soul"

Red.
My pale skin turns red, inside I'm screaming
I sit calm watching every part of me tremble

Who is this inside my skin?
I do not recognize the monster who is living within me
This monster is taking over me.

Inwardly I am screaming, pleading
Someone please please find me
Save. Me

I was found the next day
Bleeding on the floor
Sorry for the mess I left
i am not okay

Sometimes it hurts
Being in love with someone
Not because they hurt you but
Because you want them to be happy
And in order for that to happen
You have to let go
I realized I am the anchor
Keeping you to shore
But there's a whole ocean out there
You need to open your sails
Set yourself free
And explore
I can no longer keep you here
You're much happier set free

I remember it hurt-
Looking at you hurt.
I remember watching the tears fall down while you clung to me
Holding to me like I'd slip right through your fingers

But darling,
I'm afraid you are the one that slipped through
You let go and I reached into darkness to find you
Searching for any sign of you

"Please don't leave me like this"
I mumbled through the tears and frantic screams
Breathing heavy, chest caving in
I began to understand

I was more afraid of you slipping away
Maybe even terrified
I retire to my bed
To have my thoughts invaded by your memory

It all goes back to that night,
When I saw you hurt
Pain filled my soul
I wanted to save you

But I couldn't

Today is the day
One year ago you took the fatal fall
"I love you and this isn't fair
But I don't deserve to breathe"

The letter you wrote
Your suicide note
Is still embedded in my mind

I get so weak and break down
Legs shaking, breathing heavy
My tears running down the picture of you
The physical pain I felt and still feel is so real

There isn't a day that goes by
that I don't break down
That I do not scream your name
And hope you will return to me again

Do tell me doctor,
Do you have a prescription that can mend this too
That can heal my soul and aching body
Because I've tried all I can

I'll heal myself
Through lighters and blades
Leaving my skin feeling torn and burnt
Just like how it was when you'd touch me

My bones will ache
When I awake from my deep slumber
Slow heavy breaths leave my lungs
I wish each one were my last

I plead to God
{if there is a God}
That he will take me
That I might die before tomorrow

Reflecting upon my life
Looking at how worthless
Meaningless I truly am
I abandon all hope to surviving

I use to know what it was like to have a soul
And to look forward to life with purpose
Now all I feel is a hollow chest and no hop

I Will Never Be The Same
B Sep 2015
I was only a child
Who are you to take away my innocence
Did you know that at 20 years old I would still look at myself
In the mirror and loath who I saw staring back at me?

You see, I was told that I am like chewed gum
Tainted, unwanted, disgusting
No one wants something used
Whether I wanted to be used or not

It's not fair
I WAS JUST A CHILD
NOW THAT IM OLDER I HAVE NIGHTMARES
PLEASE. LET. ME. BE.

I'm sorry for gripping the bottle
a little too tight and for
the tear stained shirt you now wear.

Please forgive me
for falling apart from time to time
and when I do I can't speak.

I'm screaming in my head
"I want to die I WANT TO DIE"
but when asked what's wrong I can't speak

Thank you for holding my hand
Ensuring me of your love
I do not deserve you
I'm sorry I want to die all the time

There has to be more to life than this
There has to be more than self loathing
And self destruction

I'm stuck inside a body I hate
Surrounded by people who don't care
And stranded to only die alone

I often think to myself
"**** it I'm going to change the world"
But then I remember I am only so small
And this world is so big

But I know there's something out there
There's something there for me
I just have to find it
But what if I never do?

I can not communicate the feelings I have- often I find myself screaming in my mind to just say it, tell them "I'm numb to everything and I am sad" but I refuse myself but then in turn hurt those who try to love me and come close to me.

It is not advised that you come near me, be my friend nor even acquaintance for I will pull every ounce of  life out of you. I will draw you in with my smile make you laugh with my quick wit, you will love me and I know it, for I have watched people fall in love with me far too many times.

But once you watch me fall into the home of my demons you think you can be my ultimate cure.

You will try and seek an answer and perhaps put my pieces back together once more- the last whom has tried gave up, as will you.

What is broken can not be fixed not even with the greatest amount of love, care and patience. You will leave feeling weak and angry- everyone always does but do not fret, for you will soon forget me as I am still trapped in the deep corners of my mind- trying to find a way to escape.

Years after you have forgotten me and all our pleasant memories fade- we will reunite once again when you stand above my grave. My demons devoured me- took me away and you will remember the day you took my hand and said " I will not go away"

But where were you

Where did you go

I'm sorry for the blood I left in the sink
this is not a poem i just needed to vent my feelings

My demons don't come only at night
They follow me during the day
Hiding in shadows
Lurking over my shoulder

Constantly telling me to keep driving straight
Instead of turning
Whispering sweet promises of relief
If I just carve my skin a little deeper

— The End —
