don’t ask me if i’m fine,
because that’s my line.
“are you okay?”
“yeah, how was your day?”

open up to me, hon.
spill it all until you’re done.
if you don’t your chest will tighten.
your anxieties will heighten.

i went through the same,
i’m the only one to blame.
you don’t have to keep it in,
...you shouldn’t have to keep it in.

i love you,
i’m sorry.
let me know about anything,
i’m open ears, hon.
ended horribly **** but i’m very tired again and it doesn’t make s e n s e

do you have moments, where you can’t imagine a future?
you’re lying there, staring at the
same walls
same ceilings
same words
with nothing but the same feelings-
empty and pale,
like there’s no reason to go on,
when you can’t even do enough to fail.
the future is coming, but you don’t want to be in it,
can’t imagine yourself in it.
where you just want to stop.
everything.
and just sit there for a while.
maybe not death, as that’s too permanent,
but something close to it.
when you can feel the rope around your neck,
the razor on your wrist,
the way the pills taste.
you can imagine it, and you aren’t sure if it’s what you want,
or just the feelings you imagine it will give you
Is this depression?

Wishes
are simply that..

wishes
are daydreams

Wishes
can be reality,

wishes
are unlikely
In a drop of you, I lost an ocean of me.

as the lyrics come to a pause
when the rhythm departs in the air
all is left is the broken radio
and tears dried as fair

No one understands
No one cares
No one notices
No one's there
No one sees you
No one's aware

that you are hurting
that you are in pain
No one sends their prayer
As your life turns into a nightmare
As the thing you call hope
slowly disintegrates to air
No one notices...no one is there
No one is concerned, no one cares

You are alone

Going, going, gone.
The time ticking by
the sand in the hourglass falling, the top half nearly empty.
Eight years together, of laughter tears, and every emotion in between.

It has always been the three of us, him, his brother, and me.
I was his little sister, he was my older brother.
One moment, I was excited to see him, the next moment I was with him, and the next moment, all the other moments disintegrated into nothing memory. Pretty soon he, himself is going to be a memory
He is like a fire, flame turning into glowing embers, and glowing embers slowly turning into black ashes. Black, the color of my world without him
One year goes by as fast as lightning, time ticking too fast, moments becoming memories too quickly
He is the glue, that holds the friendship of his brother and me together. Without him, our friendship falls, and his brother and I fall into our different circles of friends, acting as if we were strangers.

Going, going, gone. Even this friendship will be gone once this year leaves. All the jokes, all the laughter, all the challenges of this unbiological brother/ sisterhood, is soon to be gone.

Months turns into weeks, weeks turn into days, and days turn into hours, hours become minutes, minutes become seconds, and seconds become memory.
Time flies, as people say it. But to me, time doesn’t just fly, it has a supersonic jet pack and a hyperspace ability.
I can already feel his absence as if he is already gone. It is almost as if he isn’t there any more
Going going gone
My best friend, my role model, my brother.

She drew happy faces all over my arms.
She drew smiley faces over my scars.
She showed me with ink and blue marks,
the answer is a pen, not a blade, to make art.
based on what happened today.
