Above & Below
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
Buried Words Dec 2018
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.

Appearance Vs. Reality
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.

Days
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.

Depression
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.

Hell on Earth
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.

Mask
Buried Words Dec 2018
But what she doesn't know is,
He sits with his head in his hands,
Not knowing what to say to the broken girl,
On the other side of the screen.

Winter
Buried Words Dec 2018
Holding her hand, that silky petite hand, her gorgeous lips, dripping from the cold, wet winter rain. Her velvet brown hair blowing in the wind as we run towards the shop front for shelter. But I stop, grabbing her arm. I take both her hands in my mine, keeping them protected. I take a deep breath and watch the droplets of water fall from her hood onto her cheeks. Those eyes, those beautiful hazel eyes, complimented by those long long eyelashes. She smiled her bright little smile.. And it was then I said. I love you.

Live, Laugh, Love.
Buried Words Dec 2018
***** dishes,
Unwashed clothes.
Shoes on the floor.
My love and I sprawled on the couch,
His arms wrapped around.
Taking life nice and easy.
Laughing at our old ambitions,
And realising that this is the life we live.
This is where I want to be

S i l e n t K i l l e r
Buried Words Dec 2018
It creeps in, not making a sound.
Clawing away at any happiness you had.
Until it has devoured it all,
Leaving you as a hollow shell....
Leaving you with nothing.

Poisin
Buried Words Dec 2018
I lay there dead and numb inside,
While you drew me in just like a tide.
I really don’t know where to start,
But you pulled a knife and cut my heart.
And in that moment then I knew
I could never ever stop loving you.
Even though your bad for me,
You make me feel alive and free...

As the pills kick in,
She feels at peace.
She feels the pain leaving her body.
Numb.
Knowing her fight is finally over

Dark Fantasy
Buried Words Nov 2018
I'm living in this dark fantasy,
Where I'm surrounded my deranged demons.
Back in that room,
With my attacker...
Reliving the moment second by second,
Minute by minute,
Hour by hour.
Slowly slipping away.
Very, very, slowly,
Until I disappeared.
Back into my dark fantasy.

Buried Words Nov 2018

She smiles a bright smile,
But hides the darkest secrets.

Untitled
Buried Words Nov 2018
The pain starts to dissipate as numbness floods her body,
She closes her eyes,
Unclenches her fists,
And lets out a final sigh.
In an hour or two someone will probably find her,
But she won't hear the worry in their voice
Or see the concern in their eyes when they do...
...because she's gone.

Mom
Buried Words Nov 2018
Mom
You never let me be me.
You see I'm healing,
Yet you need to drag me down.
You see me smiling,
Yet you need to make me cry.
You see me trying,
Yet you still make me feel like a failure.
Your meant to love me,
Not hate me Mom.

7 Minutes
Buried Words Nov 2018
It takes 7 minutes to bleed out.
Whereas here I am,
Fighting this constant losing battle for almost 5 years.
Struggling to live when I'd rather die.
7 short minutes.

Friend
Buried Words Nov 2018
The laughs,
The cries.
The secrets,
The lies.
The little fights,
The drunken nights,
A friend is all you need.

My Opinion
Buried Words Oct 2018
In my opinion,
things don't get better,
we're made to think it.
a coping mechanism,
built in.
To survive.

I love you
Buried Words Oct 2018
I can still feel the nerves,
Sneaking out to mind you.
I can still feel your hair between my fingers,
Wet with fear.
I can still feel your breath on my cheek,
Smelling of stale alcohol.
I can still hear your voice,
Hoarse and lost.
I can still see the way you looked at me,
With your big, sad, blood shot eyes,
Begging me to never leave your side.
Your lips telling me you love me.
And in that moment,
I knew I was never going to be the same.
I love you too.

Ghost
Buried Words Oct 2018
Most of the time I feel like a ghost.
No one can see me,
Or hear me.
I just exist in another realm,
While looking through a fogged window at everyone else.
A used body tired of life.

Outside I'm smiling,
While inside I'm crying.
Constantly trying,
But I feel myself dying.

Just keep smiling...
Buried Words Oct 2018
Just keep smiling,
Even though people are talking.
Just keep smiling,
Even though home is a mess.
Just keep smiling
Even though the blades hurt.
Just keep smiling,
Even though your dying...

Room
Buried Words Oct 2018
It's like screaming.
In a place where no one can hear.
Surrounded by brick walls,
Dark and Musky.
You can hear your own voice reflecting off them.
An then you realise it's only you,
In this dark room.
So you stop screaming.
And you sit and wait.
For the brightness to find you.

It
Buried Words Oct 2018
It
It screams,
It roars,
It hurts,
It claws.
Wanting to get out,
But it can't.
Hurting me.
Never escaping.
Oct 2018 · 77
Day by Day
Buried Words Oct 2018
I feel upset.
That's where this all started.
Upset turned to hurting.
Hurting turned to harming.
Harming turned to drugs.
Drugs turned to addiction.
Addiction turned to depression.
And depression stole my soul.
And its making me forget who I am,
More and more,
Day by Day.

Stop
Buried Words Oct 2018
I stopped trying the day you left.
I stopped my sport,
I stopped participating in school.
I stopped caring,
I stopped loving.
I stopped being me.
And it feels as if I've also
Stopped breathing.
Oct 2018 · 67
No Love
Buried Words Oct 2018
You left me standing there.
In shock.
Unable to move.
All I could feel was pain.
Frozen.
Tears falling without thought.
Letting this take over me.
You were meant to love me.

Buried Words Oct 2018
If i wasn't me, i think i'd last.
But I wouldn't be me without the hurt.
I wouldn't be me without my past
I wouldn't be me without my tears
I wouldn't be me without my scars
I wouldn't be me.
Oct 2018 · 222
Me
Buried Words Oct 2018
Me
I am the problem.
I am my own problem.
I stopped worrying about me a long time ago.
Letting this illness take over.
I'm screaming yet no one can hear.
I don't want them too.
I'm so used to this feeling,
That I wouldn't be me without it.
Oct 2018 · 87
Love
Buried Words Oct 2018
******* you in like a whirlpool.
No escape.
Waves crashing over you,
Not allowing you to breath.
Suffocating you.
You know there is no escape.
So you let it take you.
Deep, deep down.
Knowing you will never return.

Everlasting Pain
Buried Words Sep 2018
I am not afraid of the dark,
It can't scare me anymore.
I'm used to it.
It's ways of making me think and feel.
Having full control over me like a drug.
And I'm the addict.

I love the pain.
Because when you live with it,
Everyday...
You have no other choice.
Sep 2018 · 96
Forever
Buried Words Sep 2018
I feel as though I'm nothing,
You make me feel like nothing.
I feel empty.
Broken
And scarred.
I feel like there's no turning back.
Just continual darkness forever,
And ever,
And ever.

Unnoticed
Buried Words Sep 2018
I'm just a body,
Not a person.
Unnoticed in your eyes,
And also in mine.
I'm just a face,
Not pretty or perfect
Just another girl,
Unnoticed.
I'm just upset,
Nothing new.
The pain it hurts,
Unnoticed.
Until the day,
When I end my pain,
I will be
Unnoticed.

Deep Dark Moments
Buried Words Sep 2018
Neat little rows.
All over my body.
Some deep,
Some shallow.
Every line with its own story.
Little memories I carry with me.
The after scarring always there to remind me.
Of the pain I felt in those deep dark moments.
Sep 2018 · 83
Drink
Buried Words Sep 2018
Your addiction.
You think we don't notice but we do.
The empty bottles hidden in corners.
The slur in your voice.
The pain in your eyes.
Why are you doing this?
You are fine on the outside...
But what is inside making you **** yourself like this?
What demons are you trying to drink away....?

Think
Buried Words Sep 2018
'Coward', I hold my blade.
'*****', The tears fall.
'Useless', The blade moves.
'Unwanted', The blood drips.
'**** Yourself', The cuts deepen.
Oxygen stops reaching my lungs.
Think Before You Speak.

Jigsaw
Buried Words Sep 2018
Life is a jigsaw.
Sometimes you fit the pieces together, first try.
Sometimes it takes a few tries,
Putting the pieces in the wrong places
And taking a while to figure out where they go.
But sometimes, the jigsaw falls and breaks.
The decision lies there.
Awaiting your answer.
Do you start again?
Or give up.
Sep 2018 · 95
Busy
Buried Words Sep 2018
I said i was busy.
But not in the way you think.
I was busy focusing on my breathing.
I busy trying to keep the tears at bay.
I was busy gliding the blade back and forth.
I was busy bleeding.
I was busy doing what I do best.
I was busy hurting.

Mommy
Buried Words Sep 2018
'Why is Mommy so upset?'
'Why is Mommy not talking?'
'Why does Mommy have scars on her arms?'
'Why did Mommy hit me?'
'Why doesn't Mommy love me anymore?'
'Why is Mommy in the doctors all the time?'
'Why is Mommy taking so many pills?'
'Where is Mommy gone?'

But Dad...
Buried Words Sep 2018
You left me the same way someone would leave an unwanted puppy at the side of the road.
Alone, terrified and unknowing.
You walked out that door the same way the blade cuts.
Fast and painful.
You made promises.
That you would always be here.
But Dad,
Where are you now?
When I need you the most.
Sep 2018 · 71
Some...
Buried Words Sep 2018
Some hide their pain.
Some wear it with pride.
Some wear it but still feel the need to hide it.
Anything to get our pain out.
To release.

My Love
Buried Words Sep 2018
Your eyes glistening like sapphires under the bright night sky.
Your lips a soft rose, placed perfectly on your smooth face.
I could look at you for all eternity.
Your arms sprawled across my chest while I caress them with my fingertips, feeling your pain written all over your forearms.
I will never judge you.

— The End —
