Nothing
penn Oct 2015
Everything is nothing
Everything I behold
All the thoughts I believe
The feelings I've had
Everything I see
Everything I touch
Everything I taste
Everything I smell
Everything I hear,
is  NOTHING.
All of a sudden,
Your mind will become still.
I know it's happening to some of you right now.
There is nothing to think about any longer.
There is no one to know whether you're doing it right or wrong,
Because everything is  NOTHING.

THERE'S  NO  PAST
THERE'S  NO  FUTURE
THERE'S  NO  GOOD
THERE'S  NO  BAD.

Everything is absolutely  Nothing.

She is a scripture of broken promises and shattered dreams. Every step felt like walking on mysteries and every breath felt like drinking secrets.

She is a mess from another mess of a family. Every moment was another sad memory and every single remembrance was already a forgotten dream.

She is a painting covered in ink. Her colors have turned black and her lines have been smeared. She is a canvas no longer wanted because of a stain she cannot remove.

And so I tell her, look up. Stop stepping on mysteries. Stop living on sad memories. Stop letting your colors fade. Become as vibrant as your soul and become a masterpiece painted by yourself.

Do not throw yourselves to the bottom of the pit because of people who want to use you only as a stepping stone. Do not bring yourselves down because of flaws you are taught to hate because those flaws are what make you different. Those flaws are what make you beautiful and those flaws are what make you see the beauty in yourself. Do not hate others because of things you do not accept and do not turn from those who need help.

You are a scripture of promises and dreams and that very thing is the reason of your existence. To love and be loved by others but more especially to be loved by yourself. Understad that the hardships you have gone through are the lessons you will remember. You are allowed an infinite number of chances to turn things around, but remember to make every chance matter.

Remember to give people your heart and remember to give yourself patience. Patience to grow and patience to love. Patience to learn and patience to accept.

Learn to live how you want to live, because your life is a story that you write with your hands. Do not let others write your story for you. Write your story with your own words, sentences, paragraphs, memories, remembrances, dreams, promises, and with your very being.

Write with your hands; write with your soul.

You found me,
Protected
Fully clothed
Naive from this chaotic world were existing in.

Thinking you would gently take off the pieces of sadness
and fear that's wrapping my entire body.

But then you left me cold,
Naked and torn apart,
Yet I thank you,
Because now I am aware that it's not the world that's chaotic..

But  you.

Who told you good artist are only see in television?
For they being so effinly good we didn't realize they are hiding in the screen name who we call "FRIEND",
Or some random people around us who other people mistakenly call "FRIEND".
They can act that they care,
They can be a newscaster who will talk behind your back,
They can make you cry,
They can be the Antagonist,
But a good girl in their story..

So be careful whom you call "FRIEND" .

The surface of the water
Was rippled with a seemingly
Endless series of tiny waves
Like the goosebumps that
Elaborately covered
The flesh of your
Naked thighs.
The sound of the sea
Hungrily kissing the white sands of the shore.
The faint whispers of the wind...
The afternoon was pregnant
With poetry
But all the poetry it bore
Was pregnant of you
You
Of which there was no escape.

I held my breath,
then laughed,
convincing myself that maybe
we were soulmates
in another lifetime.

As I huddle in this corner of my room, as far away from any entrance as I can get, I can hear them coming for me.

I cringe as I hear them whispering my name, close my eyes as I see their shadows run past my windows and door. They're at the door now, beating against it, scratching it, whispering all of the grotesque things they want to do to me.

WHY  WON'T  THEY  JUST  LEAVE  ME  ALONE?!

I feel the cold steel of our kitchen knife in my hand, and I barely notice myself lifting it up, pointed at my neck.

I feel a moment of clarity now, as I close my eyes. It's better to die by my hands, than by theirs. This is my last moment of resistance.

*Goodbye

"Life Is What You Make It"

Not it isn't.
I didn't ask for depression.
I did not ask for social anxieties.

If I wasn't born with these things,
My life would be so much ******* easier,
So don't tell me it's my fault.
My life is ****.

I am astonished, disappointed, pleased with myself. I am distressed, depressed, rapturous. I am all these things at once, and cannot add up the sum.

What you think,

What you feel,

What you imagine,

Chapped lips
Dark circles
Boring days
Anxious nights
Dangerous habits and thoughts
Slipping back in my mind
How much longer
Do I have to do this?

I don't understand why we must do things in this world, why we must have friends and aspirations, hopes and dreams. Wouldn't it be better to retreat to a faraway corner of the world, where all its noise and complications would be heard no more? Then we could renounce culture and ambitions; we would lose everything and gain nothing; for what is there to be gained from this world?

Voice Out
penn Sep 2015
One of the risks of being quiet is that the other people can fill your silence with their own interpretation: You’re bored. You’re depressed. You’re shy. You’re stuck up. You’re judgmental. When others can’t read us, they write their own story—not always one we choose or that’s true to who we are.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who's the biggest fool of all?
It must be the boy who can't stop crying?
Or maybe it's the girl who kept on trying...

A forest of silence
In the island of dreams
Where all words are blossoms
And nothing is what seems
Through tunnels of sorrow
And the land of the dead
These won't be the stories
You would read before bed
Hush now, don't weep
Monsters hate sleep
So they watch you instead
They show us true horror
To show us they live
And after all **** us
So others believe
The smell of blood only
Would lure them away
But please don't be fooled
For they'll come back to play
None of them is happy
Or thankful for living
Their nature is evil
Instead of forgiving
Whenever they find you
They give it their all
To scare you, to tease you,
Or try and make you fall
So I'll be there for you
To give you a hand
Allways like your second shadow
If you fall I'll help you stand
I'll never deceive you
The dead tell no lies
But know I am dark
And night is my life
I conclude as I tell you
I really am strange
If you need me, you'll have me
But you'll get in my cage
To watch out in the future
Just pull out your deck
But be quick, for I fear someday
I may bite you on the neck.

There are things that we don't want to happen, but to accept,
Things we don't want to know,
But have to learn,
And people we can't live without,
But have to let go.

I first fell in love with your eyes and the way you used them to create me.
I then fell in love with your mouth and your words that just ate me.
It took too long to realize that I am not the way that you see me and writing my own poems would be much more easy.
