Broken Pieces -Rachel
Stained Glass Mar 2019
"She wondered 'If I had woken up, would I have smelled his sadness, his desperation, and his detachment?

His death, her breath.

He told her once, she remembers, these two words have no other rhyme but each other.

If she could go back, she thinks---

She would open her eyes, instead of her heart."

"I had a good day,
I laughed,
the sun was shining
and I was fine.
Until someone came and reminded me
why I was so sad. I realized I wasn't happy,
I was just distracted from my sadness."

Sometimes
Stained Glass Jan 2020
Sometimes I wish that things could get really bad, so I have a reason to **** myself.
Sometimes I wish that nobody cared for me so that I could **** myself without feeling guilty.
And sometimes I wish that I wasn't this type of person, but I am.
I really am a bad person...

I'm
homesick
for places away
from my own
                    Where
                 the people
            are friendly and
         my name is not known.
                                              You
                                       can tell me
                                     I'm crazy, but
                                    I'll never forget
                                                         I'm
                                                    homesick
                                               for the places
                                           I haven't been yet.

Alzheimer Disease
Stained Glass Mar 2019
I opened my mouth to his and tried to take him in so deep that my

soul, if I had one, might remember what my brain forgot.

But all of a sudden, I tasted salt between my lips and realized water

was streaming copiously from my eyes.

"Our memory is a more perfect world than the universe, as it gives

back life to those who no longer exists."

Just like everyone I loved.

A Narcissists Mindset.
Stained Glass Jan 2020
'-And if it did,
that didn't happen.
because it wasn't that bad,
and you're just overreacting
it's not a big deal
and if it was,
it's not my fault
and if it is,
I didn't mean it
and if I did mean it,
you made me do it.
It's your fault, not mine,
I'm the victim here,
and it's going to stay that way.'

Society: "WHY don't you open up?"
                                      Because I'm afraid to tell people how I feel
                                       because it will destroy them, so I bury it deep
                                                   inside myself where it can destroy me.

"DON'T worry it's just a phase."
                                             So 3 am is just a phase, I've been sad for
                       years don't tell me it gets better. With depression, I'm
                                                          being murdered by my own mind.

"WHY don't you let your feels out?"
              Because I hate when people have to see me cry, because I'm
     suppose to be that strong person but at the same time I hate how
                                  nobody notices how torn apart and broken I am.

"Don't worry, you're fine."
                                                   So it hurts but it's okay.. I'm used to it?
                                           The only thing more exhausting than being
                depressed is pretending that you're not, but WHY can you
                                                not understand the hell inside my head?

"Why didn't you tell anyone?"
                                               I could say no one asked, but even if you
                                                                ­                   did, did you really?

Even when I'm walking underwater
Even when I set myself on fire
No one can see me
While I wrap barbed wire around my wrists
And decorate the walls with my fists
No one can ever hears me
A witness to the yells or shouts
A witness to the pattern of "Oh okay" and "GET OUT!"
A witness to tears and uproars
A witness to hurtful words and slamming doors
No one's ever needed me
Even when I'm showered with stylish clothes
Even when I have the perfect nose
No one ever wanted me

There is nothing to gain but shame for the scars on her body but, she always ends up doing it again

You see, she is a victim of something

She knows that deep in her heart she knows she must stop

For her life she doesn't want to end

But for now its the only way to stop pretend
