I’m a ghost who walks the halls
of my mind.
I’m a ghost who visits the mansions
of my body.
I’m a ghost who haunts the attics
of my soul.
I’m the ghost of the monster
who controls my body.
I’m the ghost of the girl
who wants control.
I’m a ghost of myself
and who I want to be.
cry
i need to cry
but who can i call?
it's late
and you're sleeping
it's been a long day after all

i need to cry
but who can hold me?
it will be okay
it's not so bad
is what you've always told me

i need to cry
but i am here alone
each tear falls in silence
no one hears it
no one's home

i need to cry
but it may not stop
the ache in my heart
will hemorrhage
and it's the only life i've got

i need to cry
because it isn't fair
a thousand knives
into the core of my being
by saying he won't be there

i need to cry

i need to.
but i can't.

Kiss
 Oct 2015 Julie Hermine
AM
when you kissed me,
something spread out and fall
something beautiful, calm
sweet and sour tastes like lime
yet creates a hurricane
a quite rough turbulence
inside me, inside my heart
at the same time
This can't be real
This pain I feel
I'm in a dark cave
All alone never to be saved

Won't somebody find me?
Open my eyes, let me see
Bring me back into the light
Into happiness and what's right

I hide myself under a pile of lies
So no one sees the secrets behind these immortal eyes

No one understands and they never will
Why my life is like a big long bill
I have to pay the price of living
It's myself that I am giving

Depression is what drags me under
Why can't they hear my screams I wonder
I'm screaming to you
Please help me through

There has to me more than this
Somewhere out there, there must be bliss
But until I find it I am here
In this pool of unforgiving tears.

— The End —
