Desert Rose Jun 2013
Insanity ingrained
Deep inside the soul
Taking root
Sprouting inside your body

SPreading through your veins
Overtaking your life
Someway it's got to come out

It bubbles inside you
Rising to the surface
It's a burning so you
Decide to let it all out

You slip into the bathroom
Lean over the toilet and
Stick your fingers down your throar
It burns coming up but
Finally you are at peace
Knowing your demons
Have yet to get the best of you
Desert Rose Jun 2013
Two diseases
Locked inside
Of this body

Who am I?
Just a vessel
Taken over through
Demons that haunt the likes of you


Depression courses through the body
Sapping your energy
Making you sleep all day
Making you wish
The world would slip away

Anxiety is a beast
It freaks you out
Causes you to be
Unable to breathe

You have ot so great
I wish you could be taken over
Maybe then you'll see
WHat it's like to see me
Desert Rose Jun 2013
This is it
I've had enough
I'm done with this
All the lies  and
Broken promises

Maybe I should go mute
You';; never have to hear me
So you can just pretend
That I'm not there

Maybe I should just
Commit the deed
End my worthless life
It'd make you all
So very happy

Is this me
Am I here
Am I real
Or is this just the disease
Coming out
Taking over me
Desert Rose May 2013
Dear...
This empty space
Who cares about me

This is finally it
The end that I've waited for
I've been so far gone
For way too long

Everyone around me
Much better off
Without me in their lives
Will be happy to see me gone

Sorry that you had to
Find my body this way
Torn and broken
Waiting to decay

When I'm gone
Don't miss me
I'm always here
A sliver of
Broken memory
Desert Rose May 2013
I wish you'd all let me go
Be free of all this pain
Because everywhere I turn
I'm the reason someone else is hurting

I want pain, to hurt
Bring the blade upon my
Fresh weak skin

I wish you'd let me go
Get rid of those soft
Fragile strings to a
Broken human being

Takes a gun out
Aimed at my head
Tries to shoot myself
Kills the world instead

I don't know what to do
My heart's a mess
While my head's trying to
Convince me it wants you

I'm so connected to the
Heart of you
Want to stay
Pushed to go

Split in two
Do I want you?
I left you
But I still care
My heart's torn
I'm so gonna regret this later
