I'm suffocating.
But I don't need your help,
I can handle my throat closing,
no don't call 911,
there's no reason to.

I'm choking.
But I don't need your help,
I can handle the mucus that blocks my throat,
I can spit it up just fine,
so just keep on walking.

I'm coughing.
But I don't need your help,
I can handle myself doubled over in pain,
with my chest hurting as I try to sit up straight,
so just ignore me hacking up a lung.

I'm breathing.
But I don't need your help,
I can handle hyperventilation without my inhaler,
I don't have to breathe properly to live,
so thanks for just leaving me on the floor.

I'm dying.
But I don't need your help,
it's not like I have no energy to get my inhaler,
you can totally just run out of the room panicking,
it's not like i'm scared too or anything.

I'm angry.
And for some reason,
you can't figure out why.
So leave me alone.
I'm fine now.
I can handle myself.
I don't need your help.
I'm changing the caption 4 years later because it was very angry and I don't carry that same level of anger anymore towards that person.
Except in reference to asthma
Then I'm quite angry

Who are you?
You came when I was in pieces
Shattered, but you pick it up 
Piece by piece you fixed me
It's not complete, but I can finally breathe

Who are you?
Making me smile 
Without me telling you
You knew I'm trying to forget him
But why are you still trying?

Who are you?
Despite shutting you out
You keep asking how my day was
Didn't I hurt you enough?
You must never see my flaws

Who are you?
Mr Stranger who are you?
I'm slowly getting up again
And I'm scared to fall again

But please Mr Stranger
Please, Please don't leave.
You came unexpectedly...
And now I don't want you to leave...

Scars on the skin always have stories to tell,
adventures to recount,
tales to convey.

It's the unseen scars on the heart
that have nothing to say.

Except rest deep within and confess
loves that have only been repaid with
**pain.

Love can't be described
It has no shape, it has no form.
Love is not an object
Love does not conform.

Love enters our lives
The moment we are born.
From the cradle to the grave
Love's in everyone.

Love burns like a candle
That sometimes flickers but never dies.
Love may be invisible
Although it's right before your eyes,

Love can leave you empty
Love can make you whole.
Love can make or break you
Love is in your soul.

Love is in your heart
Love is in your mind.
Love doesn't discriminate
Love is always blind.

Love is universal
It encompasses the globe
No matter where you are
Love has a language all its own.

Love is all around you
There's plenty of love to spare.
You cannot see or touch it
But love is everywhere.

Love's the greatest power
And yet it is so small.
Love's a gift from God
To be shared amongst us all.

Can I spend my time
Like Jesus did
40 days
In the wilderness
Commune with God
On a one on one
Father, Spirit
Servant, Son
Let go of the grasp
That I have
On worthless things
That soon will pass
Can I see life
As it really is
Betrayer of truth
In it's Judas kiss
Apply your word
From the moment heard
To the hardened heart
For a righteous cure
Can this I do
In Jesus' name
So my wilderness
Will be tamed

on a demented chorus
I began
I entitled
soberly
of moon and body
speaking of green
or ales
I have not imbibed
in  the last 1 hours
but I hear tweets
from mockingbirds
chasing gliding swooping
down from the nests
I guess
i threaten.
So, this message mis-titled
a chorus mis-guided
sails into the air
as a chirp chases me,
hiding,
I need a beer.

I have a mission:

today is a new day
this is always true
today is a sunrise
as the earth turns
the dark skies blue.

today is another chance
to look within
speak my truth
heal my heart
as living proof that
I alone am strong in faith

and so,

I walk my path today
to take my part in destiny
and write the pages of my life
exactly as I choose to read.

I AM~
the author of my story
the ink of my words
the love of my life
the sky full of birds
the roots of a tree
the air that I breathe.

I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
Yes, I AM.
My mantra today :)
Feel free to say it with me if it feels right for you too.
Have a really great day!

a place in the past resting quiet
never forgotten
immortal immobile
glowing brightly
through all the years
through smiles and tears
now, through wrinkles
chapped lips
hurting knees
broken dreams
all seems
so innocently
perfect.
But, that I am looking
back, through
rose colored glasses.

You are unforgettable
Upon my life
You have made an impact
Yes I look back and see
You made a difference in me
You have molded and shaped me into
  What I am today
  You taught me life lessons and virtues
   Good values
   To help carry me through the good times
    and bad times and sad times too
    I still miss you
    I sometimes am sure I feel your presence
    In the support of a friend
    Through the Love of family
     Sometimes when I smile it reminds me of your grin
     When I lost you Dad it felt like a big part of my life was over
      Another capture had to begin
     I guess you could say I am stronger now
     I hope you are proud of me
    To me you will always be Unforgettable
I was remembering today about my father who passed away in 2005

Crying Silhouette
If I killed myself tonight,
Would you mind?
Would you even blink your eyes
If you found me dead on the ground?
Would you be disturbed by the way
The blood would be pouring from my open veins?
Would you call me selfish
And hysterically yell my name?
Would you cry the way a mother would,
Or would you cry like my lover should?

So I ask myself sometimes
As I'm lying in the dark,
Would you do any of this things
If I was to take my own life.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
I'm dying inside,
But it doesn't matter to you,I'm a nobody..
A suicidal.. self harming girl...,
In the confines of a hospital,
And they say that I'm dying...
And there's nothing they can do.
They will just let me suffer...,
In my own pain and guilt,
It's to late for anyone to save me...
My life is in the hands of the devil....,
Good bye cruel world!!!!
First poem hope u like  it. I edited it to make it longer.
