**** me now
Just let me go
I can't turn back
Or makes things right
I ****** up
I'm terribly sorry
Just leave me be
Let me die
So you can be happy
Let me suffer
To save you
I'd rather be dead
Than let you hurt
So long as I'm here
Your life will deplete
This was a short poem I wrote at work. I feel like this is terrible, but it came out in the middle of a bad anxiety attack at work. Please take it with a grain of salt.
Your words are lies,
I can't see through.
My eyes they dry,
Where tears once grew.

A lotus on my cheek,
Blossoms from salt water.
Knowing you'll start a leak,
With words that slaughter.

The flower of loneliness
To show the loss.
Hope turned weakness,
And you are the cause.
The lotus has many meanings. In China and Buddhism it can mean to rise out of your suffering. It can also symbolizes abandonment or loneliness.

long, sleepless nights
of tossing and turning
with no memory
of what used to be
and a proverbial
ribbon wrapped tightly
around her finger

popping pills,
and dragging blades across
my wrist,
tying rope over and over,
re writing my suicide
note.

why you are sitting there
oblivious to the pain you put me
through.

summer
what happened?
one day,
you were here,
then things changed,
you were physically here,
but somehow distant,
you came home,
distant an- and different,
i just want to know,
was it me,
did i do something,
say something,
anyway,
i could have almost missed the signs,
the way your eyes stared off into no space,
the way your words lost all meaning,
the way your touch didn't feel the same,
almost the same,
but soo different,
you're a perfect impostor,
looks the same,
sounds the same,
but soo ******* different.
