Anger
Jay Marie Jun 2016
I am a volcano; I will erupt
I can feel the blood pumping through my head
and it hurts
I've been bottled inside for too long
Oh, how much it makes me want to destroy
Destroy everything in my way
See these tears?
I'm tired, I want out.
DO YOU HEAR ME
LET ME OUT

Otherwise I'll destroy myself.

Fear
Jay Marie Jun 2016
I continue to grow alongside you.
Wanting to swallow you whole.
I am that constant reminder of pain in your heart.
I am that uneasiness in your stomach.
I am the reason you hide and cower.
You know I will take over.
I'll eat you alive,
but I'm not evil.
I'm your protector and guardian.
To keep you from experiencing pain ever again.
I'll save you from the monsters
by becoming one myself.
So use me
or run.

Company from Another
Jay Marie Jun 2016
She struggled to connect
as a result of emotional neglect
from a childhood she never had.
Growing up feeling alone.
She was there, but not.
She was surrounded with love,
but loneliness didn't allay,
for her mind has gone away.
Away, away
somewhere still in solitude.
They noticed this,
and they've tried.
Tried, tried
to find her mind.
Like catching leaves
in the whistling wind.
Feeling their efforts futile,
they stopped.
Oh, how fast they accepted.
Unaware that their efforts were effective.

Adolescence Pt. II
Jay Marie May 2016
Look at you!
It's been a rough ride, huh?
Tell me, did you find love?
Or did you fall out of love?
Are you still hanging onto your dreams?
Or did you find another dream?
Are you surrounded with your loved ones?
Or are you loving yourself?
Let me tell you this:
It's not over.
Are you ready to give up?
You probably know already,
but there's still a long road ahead of you.
It's up to you if you want to stop walking,
but it's also up to you on how you walk it.

Adolescence
Jay Marie May 2016
No longer a child;
not yet an adult.
It's at this time
that your emotions
are at its peak.
You see yourself
giving up
and giving in
to all the things
that aren't you
or at least you think
they are.

Childhood
Jay Marie May 2016
Sweet child,
you're still so simple.
You speak your dreams
as if they were an arm's reach.
No one tells you
the sins of humanity,
because they intend to protect
the minds of the innocent.
Those who do,
just envy you.
For you are just a sweet,
innocent child.

Birth
Jay Marie May 2016
So pure, so innocent
To open your eyes for the first time
And taking breath in this new world
Who's thoughts are none of a sinner
Nor a saint
Not yet tainted by mankind
You crave for warmth
And your mother's loving hold
So simple, so unaware

— The End —
