Words
are like
w o u n d s
that
never heal:
impactful,
deep and
something
you never
forget
- SkullsNBones

Assume
assume
to always
presume
makes me
feel just
awful
- SkullsNBones

Beneath these moon
and stars I love you
forever more
From dusk til dawn we
hold our hands
Our lips and heart
sewn together til we
ever part
- SkullsNBones

I grow
lonely
by the
second
without
you
here
- SkullsNBones

My stories
may be untrue
but trust
that my
bleeding heart
isn't lying
- SkullsNBones

I'm awake in the moment
But I'm dreaming of you

My eyes may be open
But to me I'm right beside you

By wrist may be empty
But I'm waiting for you

I see your happy smiles
Clouded visions in my mind

What joy it brings me
The thought of being with you

- SkullsNBones

All you need to do
is fake a smile
and move on
with your day.

Hold back the tears,
Suppress the demons
and pretend you're okay

Some days it's not worth
all the effort that's
draining you inside out

Exhaustion follows you
all day for all the battles
you fought last night

You're brave but you
feel so scared
Running in circles

It feels so pointless,
Yet so meaningful
Stabbing you every way
until you give up.

Don't ever give up-
Reread this poem
and know how strong you really are.

Exposure

I can't hide my skin
Clothes cage my body
Gnawing to be free

Exposure to the mind
Ensues fear inside of me
I hide behind concrete walls

I cannot hide my flesh
In layers of cloth and lies
But my mind is already layered

Break apart the walls
Break apart the mind
Expose me

Exposure
