I want to disappear
M May 2019
I do not know what exactly I desire in this complicated world, only that there are moments in which I wish I didn't exist.
Death is too complicated,  I would rather just
disappear.
into a slumber that lasts for the rest of my life.
life is too difficult, nor is it any fun, I'm not even sure it ever was.


Love is the only thing worth living for, and even that hurts.

it is always you
M Dec 2018
it is
it was
it will
always be you
the moon whispers to me in a soft voice, telling me to be patient
because it is you,
it is you I will wait for until my knuckles bleed and until my breath becomes so irregular there are moments where I fear death is too close for comfort
my dreams are constant reminders as to why I sleep,
as to why I wake up
I know there is love out there worth living for
worth bleeding for
worth fighting for
that love is embedded in you
in your soul
and caressed around your lungs
I am at war with time,
time is what keeps us apart
but with the help of the stars in the night sky that accompany the moon
we will meet
and when we do
i will no longer be able to tell dreams from reality
and that my dear,
is why
it is always you

no longer
M May 2015
I'm sitting in the corner of a dark room, where the only light visible is the moonlight
I'm shaking, the touch of his skin is stuck to me like a tattoo
and my bloodstained shirt from last nights war is sticking on my skin.
my breathing begins to grow more rapid, I forget how to breathe in moments like these
he. he's the one who haunts my dreams, eating my mind alive with the poisonous hopes of someday meeting
I am tired and hopeless. I am in love and hurt.
these dreams are what keep my alive, while killing a part of me each night
how long will I last like this?
the memories will always find its way into my mind, weaving it's way inside my brain and coressing it with the horrifying yet beautiful images of him.
but he only exists in my dreams, and the only sound being made in my small apartment is my heavy breathing
reality is my worst enemy
I want to escape in lucid dreams every night, because with him,
i'm no longer hopeless
:) I ****

I have 76 missed calls, and all of them are from you. I always find myself pressing the ignore button instead of answering. It's becoming a natural reflex. You were always good at letting people out, never letting them in and seeing who you are, and what you've become. You have drug addictions and a dark past but even I can see the beauty in you. You never would believe me when I complimented you but I swear everything I said, was all true. You had long brown hair and gorgeous cheekbones, perfectly aligned with your lips. It's been 5 months since we last spoke, and it still to this day haunts me that I could go so long without touching or kissing you or even speaking to you. I always get anxiety attacks whenever you are bought up in conversations. You always made me happy, I guess people were right when they told me to not rely on others for my happiness. When we were together I felt weightless, light but still very dangerous. We always took chances and risked our lives just for the thrill of it all. But I could've sworn as long as I was with you, I would die happily in your arms, our last whiffs of air taken in together, our last heart beats, chest to chest. But now, I feel heavy, dark and dependent. Too afraid to let anyone in and repeat the same mistakes I had with you. I still love you, and a part of me always will. After you, after us, I'am not sure of anything anymore. You're probably out getting drunk, drinking ***** like it was water.  I always wonder if I should call, but what would I say? I miss you? How's your drug program going? Have you met anyone new? I still have your fingerprints on my thigh, no one could ever touch me like you did. I miss you. I hope you're doing okay. I'm lost without you, are you lost without me? All my friends think I'm crazy, but in reality I'm just crazy about the thought of  you.

full moon
M Dec 2018
the moon lights up the night sky so bright that I am sure the sun is envious
all I wish to do is run barefoot in a forest
yelling nothing to no one
one day I will be able to hug the moon in its entirety, until my heart becomes so full i'm afraid it will jump out of my chest
but until then
I will crane my neck to stare up at her
and in her brightness she will stare back
until my eyes burn to the point that I enjoy it
and at this moment
we are one

poetry
M Jan 2019
in the midst of writing my feelings I feel my soul separate from me and bleed onto the pages,
a sort of astral projection with words.
poetry is an escape
it is my therapist
my one way ticket to freedom

do I exist?
M Oct 2019
do I exist?
I’m afraid that sometimes I do
that all of this may somehow be real
and all my failures
all my embarrassments are true.
do I exist?
do I want to?
I can’t imagine wanting to,
wanting to live this life
knowing who I am
how incapable I am of being loved
but how capable I am of disappointing
actually exists
the universe is beautiful,
but it would be made less tragic if I didn’t actually exist
so, I do not exist
I’m just floating,
hoping that when I die
I leave not a trace that I was actually here

I’ve never liked the smell of cigarettes, that was, before I smelled them on you

I have been locked away in my room for so long I’m afraid my bookshelf has started conversing with me.
Every time I step foot in my backyard, the grass always seems greener, and the sky, why, she gets prettier everyday.
My eyes burn from staring at the sun, I need to look up, never down, and I must make do until the moon arises again.
If I had known the last time I kissed him, held him would be the last for weeks, even months, I would’ve never let go. Everyday that passes, to an end I know not of, feels like forevermore.
They say patience is a virtue, but I’m broken. I’m alone with my shadow and thoughts that seem to bring me down. I grow timid, lifeless and departed from reality. I feel as though I’m floating, I do not actually exist, not in the minds of others not physically not ever.
I sometimes wonder what the point of waking up is, I could just lay in bed, deteriorating slowly, and when this is all over, I will build myself back up again.
At least I hope I will.
I’m always nervously staring at the clock, the calendar, I say time is an illusion but I can feel myself grow older and weaker as the clock numbers go upwards.
I sleep, constantly, an escape for just a few hours.
And if I’m lucky, I can find myself dreaming of him.
This will do. This will do until I can see him again, and feel his bare chest against mine.
If patience is a virtue, I no longer wish to be virtuous,
I just wish to be with him, outside, inside wherever it may be.
STAY HOME

— The End —
