Oh, little bird
wL Nov 2017
Little bird, little bird.
Fall asleep on my lap.

Little bird, little bird.
Take a breath and breathe.

Little bird, little bird.
Listen to my voice.

Little bird, little bird.
The rough melody it cries.

Little bird, little bird.
Shut your eyes.

Little bird, little bird.
Don’t look at my shade.

Little bird, little bird.
Feel the cotton in your ears.

Little bird, little bird.
Help me.

Little bird, little bird.
Everything is crumbling.

Little bird, little bird.
Because everything is breaking.

Little bird, little bird.
Break and crumble.

Little bird, little bird.
Oh, the sweet lullaby you scream.
she is the bird

perished
wL Dec 2017
i tell myself i'm fine,
but i always thought of what we could be.
it is not the first time.

i have started
drawing the line
with a pen that has
an eraser on top.

i hate you more and more.
but you're still the reason
why i lie awake on the rooftop.

if i could tell you
how much i don't care,
ill be in so much peace.

even though
you have faded away,
i feel like i'm just a chess piece.

nightmare
wL Nov 2017
I run,
trying to
run away from her.

She's here and I can't stop shaking.

I hold my breath,
my heart is thumping,
sweat pours down my body.

Waiting for my death,
I shiver in despair.

I see her shade,
I see her stare,
I see her smile.

pitch black eyes,
my mind fades black.
bed drenched in sweat

There is a monster under my bed.

the boy cries wolf.

sorry
wL Nov 2017
I am sorry if I treated you poorly
when I was only just trying to help.

I am sorry if I treated you too harshly
when I was only just trying to help.

I am sorry if I yelled at you
when I was only just trying to help.

I am sorry if I made you think about suicide
when I was only just trying to help.

I am sorry if I didn't stop you from wanting to suicide
when I was only just trying to help.

I am sorry if I called you weak in my mind
when I was only just trying to help.

No one helped me when I was at my lowest.
And my only coping mechanism
was my demons.

They called me names I did not like
but I could not retaliate because
they were true.

Though I have resurfaced back into hell,
the side-effects still lingers.

I am now curse
with a heart
that will never
skip a
beat.
the pathway i took, no man should ever.

Thinking only of you.
Lately, I can’t seem to get my mind off of you.
Just the thought of you drives me insanely sane.
My impulse to act on you is horrifyingly dangerous.
I am an atheist but,
Only God can save my impure thoughts.
Oh, how I dream of you.
I often wake up late at night just thinking of you.
I just want you,

death.
not a poetry. just one last note before i leave.

After all
wL Dec 2017
"I drew a tree on my wall..
..for every time I feel
sad,
depressed or
hopeless,
the tree grows bigger.
Crying doesn't feel good."

"Then keep drawing.
The tree is growing.
You will never know how big it grows.
You will never know where or how you will draw it.
Next time will always be a different part.

Draw when you're
sad,
happy,
depressed,
cheerful,
hopeless,
hopeful.

Expand it.
One day, you will see it sparkling.
Once you stop crying, you forget how to cry
and you will take back those words.

Cry.

                             Keep crying.

                                                                                              Let it out.


                             You are after all,

                                                      

                                                        just a human."

his eyes then became dull.

The smooth silence.
Only the sound of the swirling fan could be heard.

He is scared to sleep.
But his eyelids are getting heavy.
Heavy as a mountain.
The boy sleeps in defeat.


He wakes up drenched.

This world of mine,
words cannot describe.

It's unmatched beauty goes far unrivalled,
it's blinded abiding citizens will stay everlasting.

Surpassing all, the emperor's devotion,
full of his, heartless destruction.

Through the timeless domain,
devastating punishment shall be called.

The Grim Reaper of Death,
shall rampage again.

Again

I wish we could
go back to the days
where we would go home
and meet up again.

I wish we could
go back to the days
where we would pull out our phones
and talk again.

I wish we could
go back to the days
where we would make promises
to be together
forever
again.

Back
wL Nov 2017
When I go,
I just want you
to remember that
it is okay to feel sad.
Sadness is an emotion,
it is something that
you are feeling.
It represents that
you are alive.
If you do not feel sad
once in your life,
you are not living it
to the fullest.
Whether it be sometimes
or many times,
it is okay to be sad.
When you feel sad
just remember
someone has
your back.
I have it;
your
back.
im leaving soon

happy little creatures we are,

we extinguish too.
