Tick Tock
Nikita Sep 2015
I cant wait for the future
The freedom
The choice
The love
The fun

Im terrifyed of the future
The loneliness
The decisions
The responsiblity
The expectations

I want to relive my past
The memories
The laughs
The fun
The friends

I want to forget my past
The memories
The mistakes
The hurt
The heartbreak

Time can be your best friend
Time can be your enemy

But at some point that time has to end.
Live for the now

❇Can you tell me❇
Nikita Nov 2015
Can you tell me how it feels
To not care about a thing anymore?

Can you tell me how it is
That you seem so confident and not so insecure?

Can you tell me how to live
Without negativity by being positive?

Cause I can't see
The same light that you seem to see~

Aged Thirteen v.v
Nikita May 2015
Green dances like waves around her wide pupils, eyes lashes like curved feathers graze the top of her eyelid.

Flaming orange spirals from her beautiful mind down to the end of her back.

A canvas
Her face resembled as the flecks of freckles formed a gorgeous piece art.

Her body was as though it was sculptured carefully to put on display in greek goddess section of the museum

Sadly it wasn't
Instead her body was forcefully abused and harmed as it wasn't societys shallow idea of beauty

She wasn't tan
She wasn't blonde or brunette
Just a pale ginger.

She considered herself to be hideous

She became weak
Vunerable
Easy

It wasn't her fault
She needed the money
She lacked self esteem
And so selling her body gave her the worth and attention she never had.

Beaten
Hurt
*****

Her life was gone
The green waves in her eyes stop dancing
The lashes were now harsh lumps of dried mascara
Her beautiful hair was bleached blonde, frayed and cut.

And her body was now just another puppet to an old mans torture.

I love the way you hold me
Wrap me in your arms
Your the first thing I need when I get home and my hardest goodbye
You've seen me at my worst
My best
And all the rest

But you don't mind
After all you're just a

Do you ever just feel empty?
As though your veins are hollow and insides are nothing but air?
As though you look at yourself but you dont see any colour
Like you are feeling so much that you've just stopped feeling at all?

Because thats how I feel right now
Hopefully it wont last for long

Thoughts
Nikita May 2015
I need to sleep
I close my eyes and try
But the thoughts keep dragging me back

The thoughts keep me wide awake
They haunt me
They taunt me
They tease me
They seize me

If I were to name the thoughts
I would need to know what to call an awake nightmare.

Chest full to the brim
Waterfalls spill over

You pick up the piece
There falls another

While bending to help
I see scissors on my lover
Laid in his hands
The blood provides cover

You cut out a piece
There falls another

With tired eyes
I look to you and say
"Thanks for putting me back together".
Its hard to see that someone is pulling you apart when all you can see is them putting you back together

Shine
Nikita May 2015
Life is something we all share, Just like oxygen, in the air. The way we live it, is up to us, With a negative or with a plus.

Life is something, we should cherish, We never know, when we'll perish. Live each and every single day, Smell the flowers, stop and play.

Life is something, we've been blessed, Choice is yours, choose your quest. Follow your passions, and you'll be fine, With the right attitude, you will shine.

Within the bowels of these elements
Where we are tortured and remain forever.
Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscribed in one self place;for where we are is hell,
And where hell is, must we ever be.
And when all the world dissolves,
And every creature shall be purified,
All placed shall be hell that is not heaven.

Last night
Nikita Jun 2015
Last night
I met two people
As opposite as can be
One outgoing, funny and talkative
The other shy, sweet and quiet
But somehow they still worked as a couple
In fact they seemed to get along better than most couples you would think to be perfect

This goes to show
Its not who you end up with
Its how you ended up with them

Self Doubt
Nikita Jul 2015
Have you ever seen yourself
Have you ever actually realised how beautiful you really are
Of course you haven't
You've only seen captures
Glances
Relfections and fragments
Of who you really are

Maybe thats why you find it so hard to believe that to me
You are gorgeous no matter what you see

I used to have a depressed bipolar and strange step dad
I have nothing against depression or bipolar and strange people
But this guy made me hate humanity

He was munipulative and agressive

He would beat us and then tell my mum it was an accident

We were only 4-9 years old, we weren't going to speak up.

The thing that gets me is that he managed to get my mother to love him so much, that no matter what he did
She would believe his lies

She would choose him over us

I actually hated her at one stage

But one day we come home and hes gone.
Pills are laying on the bed
Alot of them.
And half of the packages were empty.

My mum freaked
She stayed up all night worrying
And worrying
And worrying
About that *******

When finally at four in the morning
One of her calls is finally answered by his phone
Its a woman that answers
She says "hello"
"Oh uh okay, let me get him for you."
"Baby theres someone on the phone for you"

My mum hangs up before she talks to him..
The ******* **** faked his own death to run away with another woman


And if I ever see him again
Id be glad to beat the **** out of him

My mum was like pretty upset for a year but moved on after that
It was hard for her
It was hard for everyone

But Im pretty glad hes out of our lives now.

People who are cruel make me feel ill
Do you get anything out of beating that poor soul?
Do you feel better now for taking advantage of a drunk girl?

You should feel sick to your stomach
Because you if you are content with being abusive
Then you are content with being a **monster

The weak link
Nikita Jul 2015
Sick of being the ugly friend
Sick of being the friend noone cares about
Sick of being the friend that has to try because noone else makes an effort
Sick of trying to help but being taken for granted
Sick of being the friend that always walks on the grass
Sick of being the friend thats last to get invited
Sick of being the friend that gets mad fun of constantly
Sick of being the friend that gets chosen last
Sick of being the friend that gets walked all over

Sick of being
Ignored
Invisable
Talked over
Pushed away
Used

Because I can only take so much
Soon I wont even be your friend at all

But I guess you wouldnt even notice

The Snowball Effect
Nikita Sep 2021
She smelt of
Burnt coffee,
Vaseline,
And hopelessness.

Glass shards cloaked the floor,
Smothering her belongs,
Like a blanket used to suffocate captives.

Amongst the chaos,
Stands tall pictures of her family.
Untouched and distorted with dust.

Step by step,
She searches through the rubble.

Through tear swelled eyes,
She stares into the floor.

I’m not enough.
I need to be more.
They count on me.
I’m not enough.

Her thoughts spiral around her mind,
As if each one were a razor blade.
Slowing blending her brain.

Her muscles ached,
Her head pounded as the tears fell from her cheeks and onto her cracked lips.

In a wave of realisation,
She ****** air in through her nose and exhaled harshly.

Carried by a whisper;
****.

She pushed herself to her feet,
And found herself cleaning her room again.
As a writer with ADHD I struggle to handle life’s stresses. This poem lets you see into the disappointment in myself.

Gnawing Guilt
Nikita Jul 2015
It's actually super annoying that I think about you all the time.

But its weird
I'd never date you
I'd never kiss you
Yet somehow I seem to miss you

Because it's like I've lost a best friend
Because it's like I've lost so many memories
Because I feel guilty for hurting you

You have no idea how much I care
Its kind of pathetic when you think about it
You probably don't think about me at all

I guess thats my fault though
Because once upon a time
We used to be something
But I got scared
And fear controls.

Theres a tightness in my chest
I cant breathe
I cant think

Thank god noones looking
Even though I kinda wish they would
But they are busy
Busy with their school work

I dont know why
Why I had a panic attack in class
There was no trigger
No stress
Just
No breath

It happens often
But Im scared that this anxiety
Is not just an illness anymore
It cant be treated anymore
Its as though its a part of me

A part of me that hugs me a little too tightly
Or strangles me a little too softly
Medication doesnt seem to be working and im feeling as down as ever.

Self-pity isnt productive
Nikita Jun 2015
Have you ever wondered:
Why me?

Why did this happen to me and nobody else?

Well the truth is that it probably did happen to someone else, maybe even worse than the situation that you're in

So instead of asking "Why me?"

Start asking "How me?"
"How did this happen to me?"

Because the sooner you know that
The sooner you can learn from your mistakes

tug of war
at each end of my mind
one saying stay

each time stay wins

I'd rather just
cut the rope altogether

I just want my friends

But I guess I'm too talented at ******* things up

Everyone has a story so don't close your eyes just because you believe your story is worse or better because you'll get lost
Life isnt a competition, its a journey.
We need to help others or
Noone will be there to catch us when we fall
Because we were too busy focused on our own lives that we didnt even realise we were creating a social wall
