Buried Words Sep 2019
And I suddenly felt at peace,
One the pills passed my lips.
This whole lifetime of struggle.
Stopped.
Ended.
Finished.
Dead.
Buried Words May 2020
It’s funny really. All those pictures you show me, I’m smiling. Those were days when underneath my pants, I was covered in wounds. Laughing, happy and at peace, yet my body at war with my mind. A smile speaks a thousand words and can also hide the unspoken ones.
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...
Buried Words May 2020
The memories hurt a million times more,
Than the trauma itself.
Buried Words Mar 2020
And today,
I broke.
My body shook,
My breath deepened.
I lost my voice,
My thoughts.
And I was back,
Back in my past.
Once again.
The hands,
The voice,
I can feel it.
I am there.
I am back,
Back to the beginning,
The beginning of my life long battle.
Buried Words Feb 2019
All the words I could not say.



Trapped all tight inside my brain.



Waiting for the fall of rain.
Buried Words Jan 2019
Your my reason.
My reason to live.
My reason to wake up in the morning,
And not to enter the eternal sleep I crave.
You keep me going,
And keep me happy.
Your the reason I'm slowly starting to find a meaning.
You turn the bad days to good,
And sometimes the good days to bad,
But we always fight through it.
I don't know what i'd do without you.
Red
Buried Words Jan 2019
Red
The colour of love,
Yet the colour of death.

The colour of your lips,
Leaning in to love me.

The colour of the liquid,
That drips from the wounds.
And the colour of the pills that took your life.
Buried Words Sep 2019
I craved the feeling,
Of being teared open.
I need my skin to split.
I need it to pour out,
For the thoughts to disappear.
So I relapsed.
I took my tool,
And slit my wrists.
And as the crimson oozed,
My pain went with it.
Seeping onto the floor,
Drop by drop,
My memories leaving my body,
Until there was nothing left,
Not even me...
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.
Sad
Buried Words Jan 2019
Sad
I keep swallowing what I thought was air.
Buried Words Mar 2019
Scars are the words from within,
That we could not release.
Words are the feelings,
That need to be heard.
Buried Words Mar 2019
My fingers run across my thigh,
Feeling the damage I’ve done.
The rough lines delicately scattered to and fro.
Each telling their own tale of how they appeared.
One containing memories,
Another made by pain.
In a way I feel at peace knowing their always there.
Never leaving,
Unlike everything else in life.
Buried Words Mar 2020
It’s not just the blades.
Its hands,
It’s nails,
Binging,
Vomiting,
Starving,
Alcohol,
Fighting,
Punching,
­Biting,
Isolation,
Reliving,
Remembering.
Self harm is not just blades.
Buried Words Oct 2019
I leave the room,
Yet my body stays put.
My feet grounded,
While my mind flies away.

And it was then I realized.
That I’m not living.
I’m just walking around in a dead outer shell,
And a broken inner layer.
Buried Words Dec 2019
Let me enjoy the silence.
The silence of screaming,
Hitting,
Crying,
Cutting,
The silence of starvation.
If I stay silent,
No one will come for me.
No one will know my secrets.
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.
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.
Buried Words Mar 2020
I used to be alive.
But now I am nothing more than a ghost.
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.
Buried Words Dec 2019
I feel like,
I am lying on a table.
Slit down my middle,
My family,
Friends,
Doctors,
And therapists.
Peering inside me.
Looking for the cause.
But the cause was me.
I am the problem.
They were looking right at it the whole time.
Buried Words Sep 2019
I'm sick of feeling like this,
And I'm sick of not being able to do anything about it.

It will never end.
Until it ends me.
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.
Buried Words Mar 2019
I dug myself a hole.
And lay myself down inside.
Letting the mud and gravel cover me.
Never seeing the light again.
Buried Words Apr 2019
I will never give up.
Until I am only bone.
Buried Words Jul 2019
You left your finger on the trigger,
Wondering if you should take me back,
Back to all the darkness.
Buried Words Nov 2019
I’m hurting.
I’m hurting so **** much.
I wake up and think, “why didn’t I die in my sleep”.
God, just let me die.
Please just let me die.

Everything I do,
Is harm,
***, Drugs,
Everything else,
Just to numb the pain.
That’s screaming instead.

I know this isint a poem but I have no one or no where to put my feelings.
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.
Buried Words Mar 2019
You never noticed her,
She was unseen.
You walk right past her.
She is unseen.
You pass her body,
She was unseen..
Buried Words Jul 2019
My legs tremble underneath me,
My chest tightens,
The voices shout louder.
My vision depletes,
And my hands start shaking.
I am becoming unsteady,
With myself.
Buried Words Oct 2018
Outside I'm smiling,
While inside I'm crying.
Constantly trying,
But I feel myself dying.
Buried Words Nov 2018
As the pills kick in,
She feels at peace.
She feels the pain leaving her body.
Numb.
Knowing her fight is finally over
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.
Buried Words Jan 2019
I bet you never think of me,
And I never cross your mind.
I bet you when I call you,
All you want to do is hide.
You tell me that you love me,
But what if its not true.
Even when you lied to me,
I kept loving you.
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.
Buried Words Sep 2018
The pain doesn't go away.
Even when I'm sleeping,
I'm awoken by myself screaming.
Buried Words May 2020
I am dangerously insecure...
Buried Words Aug 2020
I have spent my life,
Living in the past,
Avoiding the present
And absolutely petrified of the future.
Buried Words Sep 2019
Heaven cast me aside,
While hell welcomed me with open arms.
Why
Buried Words Sep 2019
Why
Why do I exist
Buried Words Jan 2019
If I left today,
Leaving behind my name and a memory.
Like a useless object,
No one would notice if it was here or gone.

Worthless, Ugly, Unworthy.
Those were your words to describe me.
Your words put me in this position.

Deciding between black or white,
Or
Deciding between life and death.
Life and death seems the easier option.

I feel unlovable,
This state of being is depressing.
Maybe people will understand.

Why would anyone even care about understanding.
Buried Words Sep 2019
The slightest wind could blow all my petals away,
Leaving
Me
With

Nothing..
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.
Buried Words Sep 2019
Oh how I wish,
That the water
Was blood.
You
Buried Words Mar 2020
You
I don’t know you anymore.
Your mind is gone,
Your body a hollow shell.
I dream about you,
But I’m reality,
Who are you?
Who are you now if not yourself.
I miss you.

— The End —
