Buried Words Jan 2019
I crave the breeze brushing against my skin,
The rain gently dripping on my hair.
To run through the woods, full of life and nature.
Meet new people, and discover this fascinating Earth.
But instead you keep me trapped,
Claustrophobic in my room.
Never going beyond these walls,
Of pain, remorse and this pessimistic existence.
Which you call 'living'.
Buried Words Dec 2018
You are above,
While I am below.
I grovel at your feet,
Giving you love and respect.
Yet you step on me like I don't even exist.
Like I'm nothing.
And this is the moment I realise,
I will never be above.
Always below.

Him
'It's okay to be broken',
The 5 most beautiful words imaginable.
When I let him inside my barrier,
This is what he said,
Tears in his eyes,
Looking around,
At the crumbling walls inside me.
Buried Words Dec 2018
I hold the rail of the balcony.
Taking it all in.
The rays of the sun on my face,
The smoke from my cigarette.
I close my eyes and smile.
Reliving my life's greatest moments.
And most importantly,
I remind myself that this beautiful world,
No matter how amazing,
Drove me to end it all.
Buried Words Dec 2018
Sometimes I feel that,
I don't even want to see a tomorrow.
Because I am living in yesterday,
And I feel dead today,
And everyday.
Buried Words Dec 2018
I ran and I ran...
But you still managed to catch me,
And suffocate me.
Taking my every last breath for yourself.
Buried Words Dec 2018
I stand,
The fire screaming at me.
I don't move,
I don't want to.
I want to be engulfed by these flames.
These flames of hell.
Yet above me the clouds shine,
The Earth feels soft under my bare feet.
Keeping me grounded.
Yet the serene beauty of the world,
Is taken over by this darkness inside.
