write with love
for love

write out your anger
before it becomes a danger

write out your pain
in case it gets heavy inside your chest

write out your ideas and thoughts that flow in your head
don't lose them
they can become a masterpiece

Always write out
who are you
if you're losing yourself

writing in my dreams
writing in my sleep

I never want to stop myself
from expressing myself

you pulled the words from my head
and threw them far away

I'll get them back

Your only ten miles away
Feels like your farther away

I went up north
Where we could touch the sky

Back
In town
The clouds
Are higher now

Everyone's up in going
Am i doing nothing
Caught up in the music

Everyone's up and going
What am i doing

Feel the rush come in
Gonna change
Myself again

you hear the same sounds
you sound like that one band I heard when locked out

we won't sleep tonight
we'll stay awake talk about everything
we won't wake up in the morning

I fell in love without a warning
when you left me I wondered
where do broken hearts go

I don't want to talk about it
feeling so alone

I won't sleep tonight
I'll see the sun come up again

We try and look for the words
to describe how hurt
the love
our hate
the rare happiness

we feel

but let's be honest
we'll never find it
you'll keep writing

Escaping reality
this is not my real life

My blue life
dark blue

Feel the energy draining from my body

I'm not in my mind

This isn't real life

I forgot the key
to my head

Somewhere in this blue life

I see green

So close to waking up

I'll fall asleep

relapse
eileen Jan 2019
Cannot wait to fall and break
just so I can scare those who love me away

Can't wait to hear you scream in my ear
telling me what I have done

I'm not myself
I'm not here
I'm not there
I'm not fine

every time I slip
I collect the pieces of glass
to hurt myself more

more more
I want to ache

don't know

I'm not fine
I'm not there
I'm not here
I'm not myself

Can't wait to see myself shatter

pick up the sharp pieces

hurt myself a little more

just until the screaming echoes out
no noises heard

just until you go away
no questions asked

My friend anxiety
eileen Apr 2018
See I tear off pieces of skin from my fingers
I never let it grow
Nor heal itself
I shower for too long
My hair is messy
People never admit they don't like me
I always wonder
Am I too happy
Am I too sad
Why aren't I enough
I keep going back for more
Pulled into the vicious darkness

I keep biting off my skin
bleeding till I become numb
I stay in the shower for hours

I just want to know
Do they like me

you say I'm beautiful
why can't you say the same for yourself

oh I got you on my skin
clipped on like a pin
your making me bleed

I think I love you

I'm hoping you do too
do I make you bleed ?

there's no theme to my pain
there's no way to explain
there's no metaphor or hyperbolic
message to translate

i'm just throwing it up
for you to see
my blood and guts
all over the floor
careful don't slip and fall

i don't tie up my sadness
with pretty bows
and my anxiety isn't cute

it's not a fictional story
it's not a test for popularity
i don't hide the meaning

a memory i can't erase
if you're reading this
please take it from me

when i wrote those words
i wasn't lying
i really felt like dying

give me your sadness
give me your flaws
I'll swallow them down
I'll hate myself
drinking down my tears
I can't take this

your flaws
my sadness
goodbye
I'm not fine
it's okay
I'm so fine
I lie
our love is a lie

so easy to hate you
never a time to love you

everyone is laughing at me

out loud
inside their heads

everywhere I go
I see the look in their eyes

I'm pathetic
I know

Alone
behind doors

I stay away

I never hurt others
I only hurt myself

everyone is watching me
everyone is talking about me

I'm a disappointment
I'm not what they expected

I'm not who they want me to be

Only in my world
Do you hear the birds sing at night

the moon comes out
in the daytime
You can see a galaxy around five

Only in my eyes can you
See a red sky
Flames are the clouds
it's raining
Ashes

Beneath the walls
Under the harden paint
There's an alien

picked a hole in the sky
swallowed up
turnover
I run with the clouds
falling with rain

I told myself it'll get
better
better
better

I heard you say

cloudy day
the clouds are running
we run far
to the other side

it's better
better
better

will it rain today
will it rain today
will it rain again

I heard you say

it's different

farther
farther away

we run
fall
reach the screaming sun
stealing the golden light

Shallow waters
eileen Jul 2017
Today isn't my day

It's those days
Where the pool doesn't
Get shade

The sundries
The water out

And I'm having trouble
Staying
Below the water

I get so dizzy
And weird feeling
As if I need
To Choke

It's a day
Where I just float

My back facing the sky
And I'm staring
Into the
Deep pool floor
Underwater poetry

my eyes are burning
when the lights reach them

i went shopping
got lots of stuff

he has his
city family

never picks up
the phone
for his own blood
children

yeah i know he
doesn't care
and i wish i could
spit out fire words
to the phone

i crawl into
a shell once
i hear his voice

i'm probably traumatized
it doesn't matter to
anyone though

because i should
learn to get up
on depressing days
and practice fake happy

no one takes anything
personal

if i was on the verge of death
we would forget about it
in a few weeks

go on with life
not even bothering
with what's going on
in our heads

pick up the phone
and hear the haunting voices
that talk problems

while having a nightmare
around 7 o clock

cracked telephone

doesn't even call me
anymore

Butterfly dreams
eileen Nov 2018
There was a time
when I asked questions

I received answers

Now such thing is a disaster

Keep my thoughts to myself
locked in a box

I'm a heavy cloud
waiting to rain down

darkness reigns
inside me

living in a butterfly dream

There's a constant storm in my ear

We all love in good nature

I live in silence

The day has come
We finally know
The day you'll be out
To come home


December 30th
Come fast
Run into my arms

Because finally my brother will be home

And I know
There's little things
To ruin my day

But I think
I'll have a smile on my face

Almost out
Almost home with us

if i look away
i'll lose you again

you said together
we'll be forever

but that only lasted at night
the mornings were lonely

you career never fit in mine
we had our ways far apart

miles away
calls on hold

your life went on
and mine did too

but if i ever see you again
maybe we can talk

and maybe in another world
we be together forever
like you said

feed me false fantasies
I know nothing is ever going to happen
fairy tales aren't real
I'm still looking after you

our love is temporary
everything with you is an ending
all I want
is for you to give me a reason
to begin

leave that room
leave that house
leave that virulent love

I love you
I love you

you can't love me good

abysmally
eileen Dec 2021
I've gotta hold myself back
I don't want to look at
you

I'm tempted
I'm wasted
thinking about
you

how quickly you disappeared
will you remember me if I stand near
you

giving up was hard
moving on is harder
I only wanted to keep you longer

I can't let you go
I can't leave

you're the one holding me
I want to pull you closer

these confusing dreams
insanity follows me awake

you
I can't see
I can't give up

you
in my thoughts
in my skin

you
disappear into my mouth
love me in hidden ways

I put my pain inside a bottle
Drink it up
another swallow

I'm night
You're day

Stuck sharing the same day

Wishful sleep

Sleep away the sleepiness
sleep away the heartache

I felt that this love could be permanent

Waste of space
Worthless bones

A little to curious of the afterlife

I wouldn't want to come back

pressurized
eileen Sep 2023
the water pressure changed
i guess im not the same

thinking of ways to stay sane
catching up with it
it runs away again

no one can feel it
i got a bad feeling
of what's to come

all i know is i must hold on
till i see the other end

stay intact
stay intact
stay intact

i should attack
attack all my demons
all these distorted voices

i hear the pressure change
and my blood is heating up

i can't turn back time
try and remember a good life

it's not here

i try
to stay intact
stay intact
but all i do is attack
attack

i can't find reasons to stay alive

when all this pressure
crushes me
i can't breathe

can't stay still
can't eat well

losing all my smiles

and my heart is weak

there's a new day ahead
try and change my mind
before i lose it

eileen Oct 2021
lately
I need to squint

closer the closer I get
I should go

I'm starting to see all my flaws
so I take my glasses off

I've been up and down
you pull me back
I'm trying to leave

lately
I'm start to realize
everything that's wrong
will I change or stay the same

I know we were friends
this distance is killing me
I have no patience to wait for you

I liked him
he was so transparent
could never hide away
I would always find him

all these pretty faces
I can't fake it
if I give you my name
will you take it

lately
in my timeless bedroom
the silence feels peaceful
I'm alone I'm okay

I'll keep dreaming

I don't want to be in love with you

by the morning so warm

I don't want to know if you love me or not

there are clouds in my

Hello Poetry: the ghost
eileen Oct 2019
it's back on
time to overflow
into this white screen
couldn't hear me scream

it's online
we're back
can it stay this way
much longer stay a little longer

I don't hear the bells ring
we crawl into empty spaces all of my words
wait wait we wait a while longer going offline again

hello poetry is dead
a ghost we come back to now and then
days change out of place let it overflow we won't go

our poetry will always come back to life

New years
New times
New memories in time
All you see is the same
But all you have to do is change
Different people
Different things
It's not the same day
Not  always yesterday
We will see it's 2016
And those who live
Are lucky
And those who die
May rest in peace
We shall move in a good direction
And go up only

Happy holidays
Happy dreams
Live your days  happy

I sleep with coins under my pillow
so I'll have rich dreams

when I wake up I wish you weren't beside me
this is to be taken seriously
something so deadly
and delicate

I don't love you anymore
once you know
you'll turn dangerous

my heart no longer
lives underwater
it's floating
up the surface

you were trying to drown it

There's a little window
In my bathroom
That lets me see a piece of
The sky
Cloudy or the starry night
It permits air to flow in
Giving me the fresh scent
Of the trees

While taking a bath
I stare at the sky
The blue is fading
Clouds taking it away

Reminds me there's bigger things than my head

I can whoever I want to be

I don't need your opinion
you'll always be ignored

I can be whoever I want

I'll love whoever I want
I'll do whatever I want
I'll go wherever I want
I'll leave whenever I want

I'll be whoever I want

you don't need to say something

I know there's someone out there like me

I'm not special
I'm not unique
I'm not weird
I'm not different
I'm not anything they want me to be

I'm not alone
we're not alone

Yoh stand alone
You and your dimmed views

my eyes bleed
the chlorine dripping
from my nose
can't purify myself
telling me I should get
my head out of the water
everything feels cold
I see everyone breathing
from down below
you put in your hand
slipping away
like sand
they'll never understand
underwater poetry

Depression is like drowning while everyone is out above breathing

no se qué decir
ya me voy para siempre

rotos

ahora aprende vivir sin mí
rotos estamos mejor

quiero hablarte
decirte mucho mas
pero las palabras no sale de mí

no tengo nada
no regresó hoy

porque rotos
estamos mejor

si me quieres
aprende
y deja me ir

I miss you so much

I miss the bittersweetness

I miss it all

with no one to hold
