Despair trails behind
When I find hope, you can't see it
It's like a river behind a mountain.
When I lose hope, it's all you can see
And the river floods the valley
But, hope is what keeps me going
She's a lifeboat and...
I still feel the rain...
But I'll make it through the storm.
Thanks Peaches : )
Sorry
It feels like my life is falling apart
And nobody knows it but me.
Like life’s tied a noose,
And hung me from a tree.
Sorry for letting you down.
I know it really is my fault
And I have my reasons,
Though I’m sure you’d rather not hear
About how I’m near [broken.]
It must seem like I slacked off this last week but I tried to try,
For the past week, it’s taken my best effort just not to cry.
I have a lot going on and I won’t pretend that I’m the only one,
But these feelings I’ve kept hidden sometimes seep through and stun [me.]
I’m sorry I wasn’t there but I wanted you to know,
I tried to try.
The Girl my life revolves around.
I cant get her out of my head.
My heart's on fire at the thought of her, yet
She carries my heart in her pocket.
I love her more than me, but
She keeps me out of sight, out of mind.
Even so,
She carries my heart in her pocket,
And I'd like to leave it there.
(Sometimes, I wonder if she remembers I'm here...)
I slit my wrist to ease my pain,
you look at me,
and think i'm insane.
my eyes turn red,
bleeding my tears,
and still you try to protect my from my worst fears.
Sometimes I don't even know if I'm sad,
If I actually want to be happy,
What if I actually want to stay sad,
What if all I'm doing
Is just because
I crave for

Attention.

That'd be really bad,
All the attention I'm already getting,
Is it not enough?
Have I really become that

Selfish?

All the little
Challenges
The people around me
Go through,
Have you really neglected them all?
Is it really because
You're depressed
And so you've
Wallowed up in this
Hole of depression
Cut off yourself from the rest of the world?
Or is this just

Intentional?

I don't even know
If i genuinely feel anymore
Or if all these thoughts
Are words from the devil.

I just hope
The people I love
Are fine,
Or more than ok
Hopefully.

It's just sad
That no one shares their problems anymore,
Worried they'll add on to mine,
When really,
It's doing
The opposite.

But it's my fault again
Isn't it?
For being sad in the first place,
For sharing the problems with you,
For bothering you
Time and time again,
It's all just me.

Me, myself and I.
Is that all that's in your mind?
What have you become?

Selfish ****.
when i think of love
i do not think at all
because love,
i have never truly felt.
"why do you say you love me then leave?!"
"i will never know what love is until someone shows me it for real."
The in-between time
after love has gone
is filled with wonderment,
waiting for the heart
to cry out again in joy
because someone smiles
and says hi...
"The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it."
~Albert Einstein
Her eyes are wide open
nervous gaze within
stretching far
she is waiting
for a good pass
on the corner
of loneliness
behind those lonely eyes
terror of addiction hides
she needs to use
a little bit
to reach the oblivion
the black pit
lack of chemical gear
causing hell and fear
shaking body and
disturbed brain
for sale on the corner
standing in the rain
