Can’t put my feelings on paper, can’t phrase them in words.
Something doesn’t feel right.
Something’s giving my inner tissues an irritable itch.
It can be hollow emptiness, it could be stinging hurt.
Do I care? I don’t want to.
I can’t even write, I can’t even think.
What am I thinking about then?
Am I thinking about thinking? Or am I thinking about not thinking?
Or maybe I am thinking. Thinking about what? Err..
My heart is pounding for something, like it’s trying to reach for something.
Tell me what it is, and I swear I’ll try to help in reaching it.
Just don’t leave me hanging because I will suffocate.
Ever felt hatred towards everything but with the desire to hug the world in a tight squeeze? As if getting hold of things inside your arms will do you good.
It’ll probably ******* up even more baby.
I feel death. I want to have a beautiful death.
But before it, I want to dedicate a poem to each and every friend that has made me feel warm in a skin icy-cold.
Your presence is evergreen.
Your words are softer than milk.
And your hugs are a whole other world.
I want to be covered in paint.
Black space, blue ocean.
Blood red and grey skies.
I want to be buried with the same t-shirt I’ll never take off for the rest of my life.
I don’t want change, but I desperately need it.
You can’t mix conflict with contradiction and expect a beautiful thing.
One day, all this will end.
But only God knows when.
For now, I’ll only stain my wrists with wet ink and sit here as I sink.

my mind is made of medicine
I forget to take my doses
and suddenly everything is chaos
looking in the mirror is horror
feeling emotions again is unbearable
and I remember why I need
the maximum dose
of this ******* anti-psychotic
and I remember why I was thrown
in the mental hospital
and I remember what it's like
to dissociate
and I remember what it's like
to come back from that
or have brief moments of clarity
only to be drowned in confusion
and suffocated by delirium
and I remember what it's like
to not want to exist
and I remember what it's like
to feel meaningless
and I remember what it's like
to have to pretend
and I remember what it's like
to hit a dead end

The first time I tried drugs
I think the thing I liked most about it was that slowly
I was destroying myself
I like how it took me away from what my life actually was
and afterwards I became addicted to my what my actual life wasn't
I was living in a fantasy
I was stuck between who I was supposed to be
and who I wanted to be
never knowing what I was meant to choose

I know I shouldn't fear growing up
because that's just irrational me
it's bound to happen
my bones will ache and my hearing will fade
however, I don't fear that
I fear that moment where I'll put other things
in front of myself
I fear putting some boy that makes me feel good about myself in front of me
I fear putting my job in front of myself
I fear that by growing up it's all bound to happen
the time where you put everyone first before yourself
because that's the thing about growing up
everyone is already before you

love is like a lifeless affair
in the end leaving everyone wounded
stranded in a place where it's evidently inevitable
doesn't matter if it's the loss or rejection of a lover
and just like death
the possibility of falling in love
is unavoidable

I said I was okay,
                and another person was deceived.

I was sick
and not the type where you catch the flu
and within a couple days you feel better thanks to all those antibiotics
but my sickness was something different then the flu
only my flu did not involve my body
more so my brain
that no amount of painkillers could ease my pain

I could picture life
school and everything else continuing on without me
maybe there would be sorrow, maybe even guilt at first
but in my brain everone would be fine
everyone would eventually get over it
everyone would continue on with their lives
and soon enough everyone would have already forgotten,
leave behind the girl who killed herself

because that is the one thing that school does not teach you
they don't teach you that as humans we forget
about how long time passes because we've been too caught
up in everything else to realize that the world around us is still moving
that time doesn't stop for anyone
and that was the reason why I believed everything would be okay
everyone would be fine
