I'm always in my head.

What's even real anymore?

Living in two worlds

Stuck inside the one

That does not make me happy
Not like the other world would though.

What if we stayed friends

instead of enemies?

What if you never told me you loved me?

What if I could live and let live?

What if I could forget and forgive?

Don't you just want to get away

from the past and all of the pain?

People never remain the same

But I would love to change with you.

I'd love to get away with you.

I'd like to just stay with you

We can't be lovers, we can be friends

Until the very end

I'm willing to comprimise

If only you'd just be mine.

I don't usually feel lonely

I am self-sufficient.

But I can not bear

the distance between you and I.

I want to feel

your defined muscles

your warm body

I want to breathe

the air you breathe

I crave

your presence

I need

your love

and when

you pull away from me

I truly do

start to feel lonely.

Because I

am so close to you,

because I

love you.
shadowsoul Feb 18
You're never alone when you live in the past.
Because then, it starts to live with you.

I know none of them give a **** about me
yet they still live in my head
some things never die

I go seek out my revenge
for something I held onto.

And I'll cause
all the damage in the world
with my grudges.

when you were gone
i missed you
when you were sad
i kissed you in my thoughts
when you were mad
i thought it was cute
shocked at how all
in love i was with you

it was never lust
and i don't ever think i ever said
that you were someone
that i trusted
but i felt close
just a bit
now i am withered down
and rusted

left me in the dust
cause' your life is such a rush
thought we were best friends for real
how would it make you feel?
if i always blew you off
and acted it was wrong
that i was so in love
thinking that
we were close

well i was wrong
missing you
i sing this song

i wanna come back,
but the same thing'll happen
you'll just forget about me faster
i see myself get in the car,
the seat belt i fasten
probably crying to the music im blasting

i was wrong
missing you
i sing this song

It would feel so amazing
For me to die
and watch the guilt drown you

I'd do anything
I'd **** myself
Just to watch you bleed

Hangin' around the dark corner of my rooms and sangin'
my face is young, but my soul is old, and my heart is anti-aging
young love brings nothing new, but these true feelings are old and ancient
there's nowhere else that I can go, I am a Bedouin

These are nice dreams,
that I'm having
where at night I hold you close, but I'm screaming
cause' I wake up
in the darkness
thinking about you
till' the day break

Lying around in the dark, saying,
"What's he thinkin'?"
Thinking about you every second without blinkin',
I cried day and night, all these days filled with suicide
Cause' I die in my mind from time to time,
I'm a grim reaper,
I'm a dreamer
Goin' in out and, and in and out of these things
I'm a sleeper,
I'm a keeper
Cause I keep you in my mind for these strange things,
strange reasons

And the seasons
getting colder,
getting wetter
getting older
I feel so much joy
thinking about that grave
that I already dug,
A big hole for me,
and no hope for me
falling endlessly,
while I pretend to sleep

I feel the shadow and the ghost of your body next to me
I want to touch you
in the darkness
cause' we're lovers, and we need to feel, don't need to see
feel the kiss
of your sweet lips
locked and loaded with candies and peppermint
cause' you're so sweet
but so cold to me
I'm making out with a stone wall endlessly.

I'll never again reach new heights,
never again say goodbye,
never again say good night
when you watch me from your eye
you're the monster in my third eye
you're the creature in the 3rd aisle
in my heart, you're thread now,
could've been a textile
now I just feel exiled
now I just feel stressed out.

Now I just feel x-ed out.

I am a firework
so pent up
waiting to explode
all my vibrant colors
all over you

You are
an irreplaceable
porcelain china
fragile,
yet breaks my heart
so easily
with
the softest blow

When I am sad,
When I am happy,
You are so lucky
I love you most

Do you want

Do you want
die hard rage?

Do you want

It's not that hard,
just tell me what you want.

Yeah, I want,

Yeah, I want

Yeah, I want

It's not that hard,

You're the magician anyway

I'll just tell you what you want

Doesn't matter, near or far,

Cause' you shine like a burning star

Uber rage
Die hard fame
To be on stage

Fever dreams
of helplessness
the burning tears,
they feel so cold

my body, young,
my mind is old
and I am looking
through his lens

I cry so much
and wither away
I feel the pain
burn me away

unspoken words
soaked by tears
I couldn't say
any of my fears

unchosen love
that was never real
I'm kneeling down
at a karmic wheel

the desperateness
of hope and lies
our separateness
will never subside

in life or death,
I hope you know
that I will never
let you go

I search for you,
day and night
I'm traumatized
and hypnotized

I'm so in love,
in love, in pain,
I disintegrate
with the rain

the rage I feel,
the calming beast
it lays itself
upon my breast

I'll never rest
I'll never heal
I'll never understand
what was ever real

a hopeless love
a hopeless pain
with my hopeless friends
and this hopeless rain

a hopeless letter
a hopeless page,
a hopeless happiness,
a hopeless rain

a hopeless love,
a hopeless pain,
a melancholy burn,
a melancholy rain

I love your skin,
I love your eyes
I love your voice
I'm hypnotized

I love your brain,
I love your mind
I love your body
one of a kind

I love your words
I love your hurt
you manipulate me
I love your work

I love your lies
I love your joy
in the simple life
that you destroyed

I love the way
you always desert me
and leave me lingering
in nothingness

I love the way
you always hurt me
and leave me burning
in emptiness

I love the way
I have no friends
and have no means
to my ends

I love the way
I meaninglessly write
like you'd read
anything I've typed

I love the way
I regret what I said
the emptiness
unread messages

I love the way
I reuse words
crying these last bit of tears
in a melancholy burn

I love the way
that you are gone
and I'll never
see you again

I love the way
I endlessly long
just to have you,
just to need you

I hate,
oh how I despise,
the way I grieved
so many times

when you would leave me
all alone
and the pain would shake me
to my bones

I love the way
I talk to myself
as if thinking of you
would ever help

I love the way
I'll burn in hell
for choosing you
over myself

I love the way
you'll never come back
it's as if you died
and had a heart attack

I love the way
my whole life burns
because apparently I lived all this
just to learn.


I love the way
that I despair
looking in my inbox
and you're never there.

I love the way
that I distract
I'm just simply wishing
that you'd come back.

My heart
starts to crumble
as everything physical
just phased

I chased
all my demons
towards the end
of my days.

I fought
for my justice
I wasted
my time.

I realized
the sickness
I coughed
out the grime.

I focused
on vengeance
I never
had love.

I soaked
in my anger
without feeling
respite.

I doubt
at my death bed
that I'd feel any
delight.

Our lives
are a story,
nothing but pages
in a book.

My pain
is a secret,
the life
that you took.

I don't live
like I would
if everything
was good
moments passing
so fast
now I know
love will
never last
just look
at my past.

I cry
for my future
I mourn
all my grief
my worldview
is so limited
just like my gnarly
beliefs.

I'll swim
to the ocean,
and bury
myself deep
underneath
the wicked sands
letting my vision
fill the reef.

My sorrow is swimming,
my body is still
so now will you
be forgiving
or will you
just nill?

I'll never
say I'm sorry,
instead
I'll just kneel.

My life,
my will,
my pride,
my heel,
I want
to ****,
in all of it,
I heal.

Or maybe I
never will.
I'm reflecting on my death and the end of my life.

Just don't bring me back here.

Having love
is something I dream about
it just feels
so impossible
and no one
understands
what it's like
to no longer
believe
it isn't real

so out of reach
to me
oh, how happy I would be
if i had it
but I might as well
just keep dreaming.
can people just not tell me it is
i really don't wanna hear that ****
just let me be sad..
you don't understand my life

use my power,
use my will
to burn you against
my own grill

my own heaven,
my own hell
where you bleed out
in my jail

i'm so ******
i'm so cursed
because i like it
when you hurt

make you suffer
feel the release
the revenge
of the beast

the beast within me
bites and gnaws
gives you shivers
makes your skin crawl

widen my eyes
and open my jaw
take a chomp
grab the saw

i wont lie, i want to create a hell
and drown you in my wishing well
i wanna you hang you by a hook
let you take one last look

the reflection of your face
regret as you fall from grace.

My self-worth is zero,
negative self-esteem
I just want to be
loved in all my dreams
fast to crinkle inward,
curl inside a ball,
life has it's ups and downs
and all I do is fall.

I've been at rock bottom
the bottom of the sea,
for what appears to me
like an eternity.

I slowly crawl upwards
while the tears roll down my eyes
knowing that I'm worthless
in and out of demise.

I can't take my life
why do I even try?
I still can't figure out
why the hell I'm alive

Life is not for living,
you just have to survive.
Seeking out the truth
whilst surrounded by lies.

Piling up the stress,
maybe I'm depressed
I feel heavy and dense,
emotions unexpressed.

I can not cry for help
because nowhere is safe
my own mind is a landfield
and people are a maze.
i have no self worth. which is why i'm not dating. it hurts to continue. i don't know why I do it. I have no other choice.

my heart in a desert
the heat melts my mind
the pain heavy like iron,
and water hard to find
i carry all this weight
i travel far and wide
searching for an answer
to the pain i feel inside

i don't know how to feel
all of these chemicals
i will bleed out toxins
and it will be fatal
my heart in a desert
i will make you hurt
i will make you bleed
to take your iron with me

"I grew up some sort of monster, some sort of ghost."

Not the kind of monster that hides under beds and awaits their victim, but a monster without a voice. A monster that couldn't speak. Only abused, demonized, and misunderstood. Under the face, the hood of a pretty girl, I am a darkness. I am a void. A collection of knowledge, a bunch of photographs disorganized. My True Self long gone, breeded into a psychopath. A disgusting mess, bathing in sunlight, taking in the green. Life is silent. My mind is not.

I'm the grim reaper
trenching on this earth
to those I hate,
I give death.
To what I love,
I give birth.
I am a lost cause.
I am no one now.
So let me grab your soul
by the neck,
and tear it all
the way down.

I am the root,
I plant the seeds,
I squeeze the blood
I build my deeds
I have the rags,
I am the flesh,
the innards are raw
the meat is fresh.
I till, and till,
the waters still
the air is nil
I start to drill
and fill the fields
with all I feel.

Your death is fake,
but the pain is real.

I reap with Saturn,
I sow with steel.

Your misery
is my favorite meal
I love the taste
the human zeal
they taste like krill
I love to ****
my *** appeal
rolling down hills
cause' I look like

dead bodies
falling high,
out of hell,
into the skies
onto my land,
of sorrow
and woe,
I love my ***
I can burrow more,
to bury the saints
and save the ******.
Work in progress.

******* stew floating around in my head
at this point now, all I can do is wish I were dead
don't get why I always care what they said.
Work too hard just to get nothing in return

I wanna watch it burn
All the way down
I wanna feel flames
From the bottom, to my crown
I'm surrounded by lies
And a bunch of illusions
Stuck in confusion,
but you all still drink it.

Grandiosity fills my bones with dust
pixies next to my head and they're filled with lust
I'm the knight in my own little kingdom
and everybody wants me
and everybody loves me

I know I can only save myself
everyone's lost, stuck inside this hell
how could you possibly
call it beautiful, honestly?
I know the hive won't be fond of me
because I bring the thing that stings
I can fly with my own wings
I'm a busy, busy bee

I only think it,
but you all still drink it
yeah, you belong in it
yeah, you throng in it
singing your songs in it,
yeah, you spit in it
you're all the culprits,
I'm crawling out of it
I'm so out of it
In doubt of it

I wanna watch it BURN
all the way down
I wanna feel the flames,
from my feet, to my crown
I want to be dark,
I want to be brown
I'm surrounded by lies
I JUST can't get you guys
And a bunch of illusions
Stuck in confusion,
but you all still drink it,
I only think it,
I only fake it,
until I make it
I'm always naked
stuck in confusion
but you all still drink it.

I have the power
to rid myself
of thoughts of you.

You don't mean
anything in my life.
i write way better poetry on my alt account
A river in my mind,
I always feel behind,
running after dreams,
to catch up.

When I was feeling bliss,
you came into my life
and made me think
about love.

You put your hands in glee,
straight into the stream,
and played with the water,
in my head.

For once I felt at peace,
and finally released
from all the pain
that I felt.

I'm never running dry
from all the times I cried
and now I'm crying
once more.

Because of all the times I bled,
and all the tears I shed,
you're hurting me,
once more.

With you,
you were the last time
I'll ever believe
that I can be loved.

And you broke me so bad
and I can not believe
that I could ever be this dumb,
forever feeling numb,

My broken bones
they just collapse
and my sobs echo
into my lap

And God hates me
once again
breaking my heart
when I didn't even ask.

And now I'm at
my final straw
teary eyed,
with a shaking jaw

And it hurts so bad
that you made me feel
that I could be loved,
that it could be real.
unimaginable pain. i'm hurting so much to the point where i just can't feel it no more.

When everything is beautiful
and everything is strange
when everything is lifeless
and beautifully arranged

when everything is sorrowful,
and takes away your breath
when everything is living
but life's a silent death.

when everyone is laughing
but all you do is cry
when others are thriving
and you just want to die

when everything is passing
and you live in the past
holding onto strangers
that were never meant to last

always hoping
that reality will bend
and you won't talk to me
but I can always pretend.

always replacing
the void that's always there
so I won't be lonely
and I won't despair

something always changing
always inter-phasing,
I have many faces
for the many things I'm facing.

call me a kaleidoscope,
always cry and can't let go
I am a sad cube,
Inside a vacuum

These tears are hot and sting
I really like to sing
Whenever I feel like
I have nothing

It's all a silent death,
but it's not colorless
It's my internal void
that always gets destroyed

when everything is lifeless,
and beautifully deranged
and you're rid of your innocence
and wonderfully estranged.

when strangers marvel at you,
like a plate full of meat
and nobody loves me,
it's all just deceit.

when the world is so vast
but your room is so small
and the monsters are so big,
but your dreams are too tall.

when intimacy is formless,
and you're making love with ghosts
sitting in anger,
at a pain no one knows.

and with the simple pleasures,
you really mean the most
cause' although I'm suicidal,
I want to have a toast.

when your ex is everything,
but you're nothing but his muse,
and he calls you his 'friend'
after you were violently abused

when you forget your age,
as he forgets his
and your childhood is seamless
life's as if you were dreaming

but everything's a nightmare,
and everything is slow
and everyone is happy
and everyone lets go

but I move silently
I walk as slow as my breath
because time is passing
straight to the silent death.
This poem was about Lego
I love you 💖

I will just get old and die. Never really having what I actually wanted. Wrinkling and preparing more and more to go back into the dirt. It's where I really want to go. Nothing in this world was worth living for.

It's just always a love I never had. And yet I replace it with voices in my head.

Someway, somehow
I think writing
will bring me closer to you
somehow

I'm just writing to you
and you silently watch my words
like a ghost
I think I ran out of time
Unless it's all in my mind
The world, just leave it behind
My god, I think I am blind

I tried thousands of times
Searching, just to find
Nothing at all
Empty in my hallway

Stars, they spread
But stars are dead
The supernovas have bled
The supernovas I've met

The stardust they spread,
The stardust I collect,
The memories I protect

Emotionally neglected
Fractured and defective,
Emotionless and breathless
Heavy and headless

In love and helpless
Restless, hopeless,
Searching in a world
Where we've all been coping

Holding, hoping,
Pulling all the strings
Saying all the words,
And doing all the things,

This universe is something like my world.
