Lay vacant in the dirt, keep licking your wounds
Tear off meat from the corpses, feed off the 'what ifs'
Waste away with ghosts of what could've been
Let yourself disintegrate along with a future that never came to be

Or

Pick yourself up. Directly apply anesthetic on the flesh. Ready the tourniquet.
Brush off the dirt. Walk through the graves.
The dead cannot be offended.
Cross over tomb stones
Step on the flowers.
The dead cannot be offended.
Leave the prayer beads
Leave the dampness of your cheeks
Leave the begging and the screaming
The dead cannot hear your prayers
The dead cannot wipe your tears
The dead cannot comfort
The dead cannot be offended


Do not dig up graves
They are dead
Leave them to rot

Walk out. All the way out.
Leave the dead where they are meant to be, and let life in.
It's true, what they say
people are mirrors
I look into your eyes
everything is backwards

What you see,
eyes and lips
hips and thighs
dirt and twigs
curves and lines

If my proportions
are enough, but
not too much
then...
I have your attention
and maybe
If I press my clothes
burn my hair
paint my face
maybe you will
like what you see?

What would I see?
If you never told me
I was beautiful
When I cover up
brush my hair
across my face
then...
would I know?
could I see?
The girl that's dying
inside of me.

I hate to see you dear poet
writing out all your pain
it makes me feel quite useless
like an umbrella without the rain

I want to put my arms around you
to let you know someone is there
we won't even have to speak
it's just to let you know, someone cares

In reality there's a distance
and I'm unable to sit with you
but I hope you don't really feel alone
with this pain you're going through
This was written for poets that are writing their pain at the moment.

I
Would
Give you all
I've ever had but
I've never had much so
You can take what you want
I trust you
*My Love
I know I said part 3 was the last part but this stanza just came to me so I had to write it :] I know it's a bit soppy but this part especially means a lot to me. All advice is highly welcomed... :]

You think you're tough enough?
To leave bruises on the others' body
To make a scar on the others' face

You think you're perfect?
To insult the others
Saying their existence is a ******* jokes

Do you proud of it?
Does it worth?

What did you gained?
Satisfaction?
Victory?

From your deepest heart
Don't you feel sorry for them?
They're physically and mentally
Broken by you

And you
Laughing at them
Saying they deserve this?

Is there
No humanity
Live inside you?

People like you guys
Don't deserve to be called human
Neither be called animal
'Cause animal isn't as devil as you

Just remember
This world is round
What goes around
Comes around
So, for the bullies
Please stop
'Cause it's hurt be the victims

You do not need to ruin your life just because some pathetic people broke your heart. Be a better person instead, and show them that you can live without them. You deserve the best not the ****.
