Depression isn't always 3 a.m.
sometimes it hits you at 3 p.m.
when you're with your friends
and you're halfway through a laugh
and you just
stop.

"tell me about your heart
how it stole breath from my lungs
  and still warmed my veins."
Stained Glass Dec 2019
Whenever I say I hate something people feel the need to respond with "Hate is a strong word"
Yeah?
Well so is love and people throw around that word like it's nothing..
Such as:
"I love this,
I love that,
I love you."

In feeling things I had denied
So I lay down in its' icy arms
And surrender to the tide'''''

I ruined so many things (for myself and those around me) that could've been amazing because I was sad.
Slowly learning that sometimes you have to make peace with the fact that you are the villain in someone else's story even if you thought you were doing the right thing. You don't get to tell them how to narrate their experience....

"Red nails, like roses
Purple fingers, flowering,
Bruises fed to bloom,

The more you let the darkness grow,
the less there is of you."

No one sees it's a ******* up world, even a blind man could see

That to fake happiness you have to be who others expect you to be

My friends all laugh and hang around, you don't need water to be drowned

I live in a place where my soul is repeatedly *****

A school, a prison where there is no escape

Some people aren't good at asking for help, they're so used to being 'the helper.' Throughout their life they've experienced an unbalance give and take, so their instinct is usually "I'll figure it out on my own". The self-reliance is all they've ever known.

People think a soulmate is your perfect fit
and that's what everyone wants.
But a true soulmate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

It's what EVERYONE sees and what NOBODY thinks about.

A turtle once said.. that
"Yesterday is history
tomorrow is a mystery
but today is a gift.
That is why it is called: "The present."

"If you had cancer, would you yell at yourself for having cancer?"
                                                                                                     "No."
"Then why are you yelling at yourself for being depressed? Be gentle with yourself."

I always feel like I'm second best when it comes to friends. Like I always feel like I'm not as fun or outgoing to be around.

can tell you a lot about who we are.
The difference between a garden and a graveyard
is only what we choose to put in the soil."
Stained Glass Mar 2019
It just occurred to me that many people are actually afraid to heal

because their entire identity is centered around the trauma they've

experienced. They have no idea who they are outside of trauma &

that unknown can be terrifying.

Everyone speaks a silent language and expresses a truth without intention

That's why we should depend on the memories of what we do

Not on the memories of what we see or hear

Trust is a very fragile thing
                                                  inside of me
And you're mindlessly throwing rocks at it
                                                                   and it's broken, so broken
With sharp edges, that cut right in my heart
                                                     I'm drowning in my own blood          
And you keep throwing.

and I hate how you made me question myself when the problem was you all along.

Grip turning my skin red
Pulled like a flower from the dirt,

I stopped explaining myself when I realized people only understand from their level of perception.

Darling, I may be the musical star of the universe
but that doesn't make me happy.
Don't you know that a star's light shines the brightest when it's starting to collapse?

"The cities of the world are calling to me,
and I want to live them all.
I want to leave tiny pieces of myself in every corner of the world.
A citizen of nowhere,
but belonging everywhere."

"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."

I am not obligated to explain my past and my abuse to you.
I am not obligated to tell you anything regarding my feelings.
And you are not obligated to know.
#Because in the end, it is honestly not any of your business.
#No one should feel as if they have to spill out their feelings and past in order to get along with you.

It's funny that when I think about suicide
I don't think about the pain
I think about what society might think afterwards

She felt like crying but nothing came out. It was just a sort of sad sicknees, sick sad, when you can't feel any worse. I think you know it. I think everybody knows it now and then. But I think I have known it pretty often, too often.

Because of all of you she hated the girl in the mirror
Eventually she ate herself like a cannibal, only prettier

(ex) those who condition you to believe the problem isn't the abuse itself, but instead your reactions to their abuse.
Stained Glass Dec 2019
I hate the fact that I need so much reassurance; for example, things could be going perfectly fine but there's always a part of me that believes that it's all a lie.

I hate myself but I can't tell you that.
You'd tell me not to
but you don't understand.
If you would really understand, you won't tell me i shouldn't.

I hate hearing something that absolutely kills you inside
and having to act like you don't care.

I think my biggest problem is that I love being alone, but I hate being lonely.
