"These Will Make You Happy"
Holly Feb 2016
As i walked out the therapist office
I have even more guilt on my face than i did when i walked in,
She told me i had depression.
She told me i had anxiety.
She handed me a prescription.
She told me,
These will make you happy.
On my drive home that repeated in my head.
"These will make you happy"
No. They wont.
Nothing can stop what i go through.
Nothing.
I went home just to sleep all day again.
I try to keep myself awake but i just can't.
I feel like i can sleep forever.
I slowly fall asleep.
I wake-up to my mother telling me to take my meds.
The words "these will make you happy"
Once again runs through my head.
I get a glass of water to take my meds,
Just to go back to bed.
The next morning i wake up
My mother screams, "Take your meds!"
I get a glass of water to take my meds,
Then i get dressed for school for a day to start again.
Everyday the words
"These will make you happy"
Is always running through my head.
Honestly how i feel alot.

Love.
Holly Feb 2015
Okay.
Well there are people that take love as something thats not love.
If your in love with someone,  you wanna be their night and day,
Their one and only,
Their sunny day,
Their rainy day.
They want to be yours. And only your.
They will listen to anything you say. Just to please you.
Now insted of taking love differently know what it is.
Now i'm writing this because people in my school act dumb as ****
And think they know what llove is. your in ******* 6th, 7th, or 8th.
You don't kknow what love is if you don't want anyone to be the things listed above. 8th grade drama if you love someone but you say you love them but want to be with someone else.?? If you know who i'm talking about.  Stop being so ******* stupid. and if you don't like this.
I CAN GIVE A **** LESS. ^.^

Just for you. :D
Holly Mar 2015
As i start to like you,
More and more.
Maybe  one well be happy.
Maybe i can show you what true  love is,
I want to be there for your  hardest times.
I want to be there for everything.
I dont want to see you fail.
I dont want to see you hurt.
I just want you to live happily.
I do want to see you success.
I do want to see you try your hardest.
I dont  want to see you cut, cry, or die.
I dont think i make sence. But this all true,
Just for you...

Imagine...
Holly Oct 2015
Imagine yourself
Alone in your head
You're hanging, dangling
From a silver thread

Empty, alone
With the monsters within
Internally screaming
You just want to give in

Now imagine that's you
Every day, every hour
Forever sinking
Like a wilting flower

You try to tell your dad
And you try to tell your mom
But they say you're being silly
You've just got to move on

Because teens don't know sorrow
Nor the hardships of life
They're just kids with imaginations
Just looking for attention, right?

You think that there's none
Who know how you feel
You're just so alone
But the feelings- they're real

Useless
Neglected
Forgotten
Distressed

Alone
Afraid
But mostly
Depressed

And you're friends
They go on
Like nothing has changed

"They must not care"
Your thoughts whisper
The lies in your brain

You can't escape it
Trapped in your own skin
You're ugly
You're hated
But you mask it with a grin

You hate what you feel
So instead you feel nothing
Your insides are numb
Your confidence crumbling

You look to other things
To stop the pain
Cutting, pills
But it gives you no gain

And the people around you
Shout abuse your way
"You're hurting yourself, stop it!"
That's all they ever say

No matter how you plead
That you're broken inside
They turn the other way
They run, they hide

They say you're just foolish
It's all in your head
What they don't know, is inside
You're already dead...

She Needs Love.
Holly Feb 2015
Eyes you can see through
And notice her pain,
Pain that could ****.
But shes making through it,
What you cant see through through her eyes
Is shes holding on by a tiny thread.
She tries to end  this pain but.
More scars appear,
She thinks she cant do it.
So she slits her wrist,
She wakes up in  the hospital and says
"I can't do  this"
She needs love.
2 days later they send her to the mental  hospital.
2 weeks later they send her home.
Shes still on that tiny thread but barely holding on.
She wants to take a walk.
Her mom says "no"
She gets upset and tells her she hates her.
She sneaks out of the house and goes to a bridge
She jumps off.
She wakes up still alive.
She screams
"I CAN'T DO THIS"
She needs love.
Shes bullied
Shes abused
Shes emotionally abused
She cuts
She hates herself.
She thinks no one likes her.
But.
She needs love,
She needs love,
She needs love.

Scars
Holly Mar 2016
Here on my arm lies a mark that I made.
When I was so low I cut with a blade
To punish my body for being a mess,
Though here is my testament, I must confess...

That seeing these scars left on my arms, legs and chest
Makes me realize I was in a place of no rest;
I feel guilty inside for leaving this token.
Now I will see and remember that I was so broken.

But seeing these scars helps me see
That I survived so much trauma and now I am free;
So I ask of you now to stand with me and fight,
To show all these demons what they're doing's not right,

You won the battle of good versus bad.
You are still alive and are no longer sad;
Here on my arm lies a mark of survival,
I got through my hate and beat my self-rival.

"I Love You"
Holly Mar 2015
A tear drops down her face
One bye one.
As she thinks about "Her"
While holding that gun.
Images cross her mind,
As she pictures good times.
She cant take it anymore.
So she shoots until she is on the
Floor.
Before she died she wrote a note.
She wanted to say...
I love you all,
But she also said how this is it,
I dont want to live.
I cant bare seeing her with someone else.
I want her but she cant tell.
She ends her note with,
"I love you"
Than leaves everyone without a clue.
She doesnt even know what,
She has done.
She just carries on,
Not knowing she is gone.
Its hard to understand. but this has to different girls in it.

One day, whether you

You will stumble upon
Someone that will start
A fire in you that cannot die.

However the saddest,
Most awful truth...
You will never come to find

Is they are not always
With whom we spend our lives.

I dont know how to tell you im broken,
Without feeling needy.

I dont know how to open up,
Without feeling judged.

I dont know how to cry,
When my scars feel like acid.

I just need you to see im hurting,
Without me telling you
Because my words are bleeding out
Of my mouth, waiting for you
To stitch me up and make me fine
Although i know thats not your job.
And your better off without me.

I just need you to see me
One last time.

Words...
Holly Mar 2015
Life is filled with pain,
anger and sorrow.
I need a knife to borrow.
Let it flow against my skin easily,
as it goes deeper and deeper.

Soon I'll be with the reaper.
Tears fall fastly,
Thinking I'm worthless to be here.
All of my frights becomes my fears.

The words flowing through my head so fast,
you ***** **** *****.
Tearing my heart apart and throwing it on the floor.
So I cut deeper and deeper hitting the vain.

Again and again in the same spots,
leaving blood clots.
Don't judge about what I do,
judge me for who I am today.

Even if I'm not okay.
My hands, arms and legs filled with scars.
Each and every one I deserve on me,
because people tell me this all day constantly.

I hate when I believe that every word they say is true,
it hurts.
Wait until it happens to you.
Words hurt
Think before you speak

"The Emo"
Holly Oct 2015
From start to finish I wonder why
The cuts look good in this messed up lie
The blood that trickles down my arm
People all stare at the girl who self-harms:-

"The emo" they call me
I turn to my name
They act out slicing their wrists
I hang my head in shame
I can't help my feelings
Of being alone
I hide myself for the day
Just longing to go home
I sprawl on my bed
With my razor in hand
And take myself away
To a much better land
I stare in the mirror
And let myself cry
Looking forward to the day
That I finally die

Monster In The dark
Holly Jan 2015
Sometimes life is too dark, there's no light
I can't decide what's wrong or right,
While this beating heart falls out of sight,
I'm starting to lose my will to fight,
Letting my pain destroy my might,
But I keep my head up right,
With my tongue and lips locked tight,
So I can push my happiness to the side,
To leave myself empty to die.

Mirrors show monsters I don't recognize,
But it's behind these beasts that I hide,
With a fist full or cyanide,
And a heart full of pain,
I have my shotty in the bathroom like Kurt Cobain,
I can't help but wither away and go insane,
But it's this pain keeping me sane,
So I'm free to count the rain.

I don't know why I bother to try;
even though I know, you'll never be satisfied.
I'm not what you want, &: I'm not what you need.
but you're twisting &: turning my reality.
I'm lost in the shuffle,
buried with my troubles.
you're killing my emotions, &: losing my trust.
&: you look at me with a sense of disgust.
this is my world, &: you are my fear.
I think things would be better, without you near.
I'm losing myself &: cowarding down to you.
you're words they are permanent to me, just like a tattoo.
you're always right behind me, pushing me way to far.
cut me open, see the pattern of my scars.
all these people that think they're so tough.
try-- being reminded that you're never good enough.
you're killing me slowly, &: I'm almost dead.
I imagine you smile as you drift off to bed.
this isn't right, this isn't fair.
it's nothing, I don't expect you to care.
I'll paint this world, with my list of regrets.
I'll burn this city with my ashes &: I'll forget
that you weren't there.
&: maybe I'll be saved from this horrid despair.
I know whose right &: I know whose wrong.
but you'll figure it out, once I'm finally gone...

Schizophernia
Holly Jan 2015
Insane?
Hallucinations and voices.
I think I'm seeing
Something now.
Look! There it is.
What?
You can't see it?
No, I swear
I'm not insane.
It's right there!
A little girl,
Black hair,
Victorian dress.
She's looking at us,
From across the hall.
She's mumbling something.
As she walks closer.
Where is she going?
I think she's coming,
Towards us.
Wait!
Where did you go?
Please don't leave!
Oh no,
The little girl.
She has a knife.
Please come back!
I need your help!
Where did you go?
You just disappeared.
The girl,
I can hear her now.
She's mumbling about
Death
She's lifting the knife.
Where are you?
I need you now.
She's attacking me.
Now, everything's growing
Blurry and dark.
All I feel is a searing pain
All over my body
You left though.
To save yourself.
You let her attack me.
I can't stay awake
Any longer.
Why are the lights so bright?
I only closed my eyes for a minute
They claim I'm in the hospital
They think I tried to **** myself
I told them about you
And the girl
But they don't believe me
Instead, they sent me away.
To a white rubber room
I have a special jacket
It lets me hug myself
They claim I'm insane.
Beyond repair.
They say you aren't real
Nor, is the girl.
They say I have
Schizophrenia
But, you can prove them wrong.
Just introduce yourself.
I've tried to introduce you.
But, they all look at me,
With pity covering their features.
Please, just say hello.
Then, they'll know, that you're real.

She paints a pretty picture
But all of the ink has run red
This picture is of a ****** battle
That is going on inside her head

She paints a pretty picture
Of a girl in a dress and heels
The mirror shows a skeleton
But still she skips another meal

She paints a pretty picture
But nobody has seen it yet
It is of a shiny razor
That makes her sleeves red and wet

She paints a pretty picture
Of an angel in the sky
That didn't see the point of life
And now they all whisper "suicide"

Now I paint a pretty picture
It's all in black and white
Our memories and childhood dreams
Still I wonder why she took her life

Mask
Holly Sep 2015
I'm great, fine, spectacular. In a way
I relish every night, and I live every day.
I live, I laugh, I write, I sing,
I wonder what the new days will bring.

Then I get home, and I take off the mask.
The day, and almost impossible task,
Is finally over, and so I lie Down,
and wait patiently for the day that I die.

I cry, I scream, I bawl, and sleep,
even though I have promises to keep.
I wait, and wonder, and cry some more,
And I ache and burn from my very core.

Then, I'm not alone, and the mask reappears:
Out goes the grief, pain and all of the tears,
As I am a happy person, cheerful all the day.
A world full of rainbow, not one shade of grey.

Of course I'm not okay, I'm not fine,
No matter how much I seem to shine.
I don't even know why I feel this...
Why my existence is one long, endless abyss.

But it is, and will be, so I cling to life,
As one day I might slip, and end it with a knife.
But, I'm still here, no matter what my dreams might say
And I hope that one day I will actually be okay.

Wrist Cutter...

I slit my wrist to erase the pain,
you look at me, and think I'm insane,
my eyes turn red, bleeding my tears,
and still you try to protect me from my worst fears.
Look at my scars then you will see,
why I can't seem to go around and fake happy,
yet you tell me you love me, that you'll forget,
for I'll soon be gone, and I'll be your greatest regret.
So let me die, broken and scarred,
I can't deal with life, it's getting far to hard,
everything's gone wrong, it's not worth trying,
so leave me alone because I feel like I'm dying,
I don't want you to worry,
because my life is ending in a hurry,
I'll be fine, and happy you see,
for death is what I wished for and soon it will be.

Anger
Holly Sep 2015
So angry
The feeling of betrayal
Suffocating my senses
A thousand attempts
Is a thousand failures
Only expect everything less
Hope
A distant aspiration
Darkness
A promising relaxation
Muffled screams
And stifled cries
Never wish hello
Always curse goodbyes
This feeling in my chest
Is no longer just a feeling
Born in the darkness
Nursed by the pain
Raised by the injustice
It courses through my veins
And pollutes every thought
And murders every dream
No mercy for the innocent
No care for the naive
Pure worship for the ignorant
Sacrifices of the soul
Piece by chunk, its chipped away
My hearts no longer whole
Don't try and tell me its okay
Cause you'll be lying to my face
All hopes and dreams
All laughs and smiles
Have all been washed away.
No love, no loss
No hope, no tears
Plain and simple, you see
No tries, no fails
No lies, no tales...
Still alive, but barely breathing

***** and *****
The girl runs away
she slams the door
she takes a knife
and cuts her skin
remembering how ******* up her life has been
she leans to the toilet
throws up to be thin
at school all she has is a grin
She cuts cuts cuts some more
Screaming in pain, blood on the floor
People call her emo people laugh at her face
But they haven't even tried to be in her place
Her dad just yelled, her mom has depression
her brother has to go through a therapy session
Why can't people see? that grin is a lie
everything's done for her, her life's slowly fading by
Bloods dripping on the floor, she's screaming in pain
she can't eat because that means more weight to gain
She wishes to be perfect she says it's not fair
she says she hears people talking about her hair
She cuts it all off, her soul has been broken
but she never told anyone, her words were never spoken
She takes the rope, hangs herself in the dark
She no longer has a beating heart
Her friends fall to the ground
when they hear the words "She's dead"
Her brother cries as he sleeps in her bed
She is gone
She is done
Just because of people. making fun.
She's buried on a Saturday,
people start crying
all because that one girl stopped trying.

so before judging someone on their weight or their clothes
their laugh their talk their hair or their nose
Just take a moment to realize and see
Everyone is not always who they seem to be.

And say a lil prayer?
Did you  ever look into someones heart
Wishing you were there?
Did you ever watch someone walk
Away, not wanting them to go?
Did you ever whisper "God i love you"
With not letting them know?
You cry at night  in misery and almost
Go insane.
Hell, you dont even know one ounce
Of my pain.

Pain
Holly Jan 2015
I'm a young girl who is kept from sight
Constantly I'm crying in the middle of the night
I'm a girl who lives in constant fear
From the torment I have to endure and hear
I'm a girl who lives in a world full of pain and shame
As others say that I am hurt and alone as I was to blame
I am a girl who is longing for acceptance and happiness
But it seems like no one really understand and cares
I am a girl who lives in a broken home.
I am a girl who still holds her painful childhood memories
Mum used to beat, slap, and thrown me around every day
As dad watched.
I am a girl with a heart that is constantly breaking
As mum is always tormenting me with her anger and painful words
I am a broken girl who lost her innocence at a very young age
From a mum who hurts me with her deliberate unreasonable rage
I am a girl who is so lonely and sad
As I have no friends and would hide myself away
I'm a girl who was hurt from the people I used to trust
My friends became the bullies who would beat and torment me each day
I used to be the girl who would have tried to **** myself many times
But I was saved by what was the most precious in my mind
I used to be the girl who would bottle up all the emotions and fears
But I could no longer hold on and broke down into tears
I used to be the girl who hurt herself in every way possible
From trying to cut to breaking bones
I am now the girl who is still trying to hold on
But on the inside I am on the verge of breakdown
I am the girl who now smiles and makes eye contact
But truthfully I still want to fade away
I am the girl filled with the painful emotional and physical scars
I am a girl who now wishes to run away
I am now a girl who is trying to pray for everything to be better
I am the girl who still cries each night
I am the girl whose heart would be hard to fixed
I am the girl who now does not easily trust
I am now the girl who is still afraid
I am now the girl who regrets having to live life this way.

Truth.

I seem happy right?
You see no cuts on my wrist.
Only the smile on my lips..
You hear me laugh, you see me smile.

But did you take time to look in my eyes?
Did you see the emptiness, the darkness...
Did you check my hips?
Darling, if you only opened your eyes, you could see.
I was dying inside...

And i bet you didnt know
That she cries herself to sleep every
Night thinking of you.
Replaying everything you ever said
Everything you ever did
And wondering where she went wrong.
