Harassment
Cat Fiske Oct 2017
you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

You read my battle,
off the scars on my arm,
you seek a remedy,
to help you get along.

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

I gave you advice,
you never used,
no matter what I tried,
you got worse and worse,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

you stopped sleeping,
stopped eating,
stopped living,
I felt your pain and it was killing me,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

I looked at you,
and saw my past,
every time,
you would over react,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

I had to do something,
but couldn't alone,
I wrote it all down,
and turned to an adult,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

you got some help,
I passed my mission,
or so I thought,
until it was all for attention,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

You lied to me,
and reported me for harassment,
after all the nights,
I tried to help you with your depression,

you fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

I couldn't of lived with myself,
if something had happened,
I told people!
when really your hospital bracelets told everyone.

So now I'm falling deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

My world is coming down around me,
all because I tried to be a good person,
do the right thing,
now this is all on me,

I fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

I'm trapped and scared,
now everyone hates me,
the darkness is back,
and it seems to have trapped me.

I fell deeper and deeper,
down the pit fall of depression,

Its closing in on me,
my thoughts are dark,
I'm still trying,
to shut off my heart.
I hate feeling that I can never help someone again, in fear of being kicked out of school.

Poetry is for the broken
To say the words left unspoken
I don’t want to be broken
But I’m not like most men

I cry when I hurt
When I’m kicked to the dirt
Then I fall deeper into some desert
You would think I’d run but I just insert

Deeper into the sand
Deeper into the land
Deeper till I can no longer stand
Deeper until it’s just my hand

It’d all be so easy
Darling, don’t feel uneasy
I know it sounds cheesy
But after all, I am ******

Or at least that’s what you said
When I left you on that bed
You yelled so I fled
Who was I to tread?

So just let me burn
Put my ashes in an urn
And maybe I’ll learn
As I fall into a place of no return

Deeper into the fire
Deeper as I slowly tire
Deeper where there is no choir
Deeper away from the spire

You weren’t happy with me
So of course I’d flee
It’s not that I agree
It’s that I want you to be free

I’ll be gone before you can even blink
So all I need is this one drink
Till it’s so many drinks that I can’t think
And then I finally just sink

Deeper into the sea
Deeper so you can’t see me
Deeper till you shout with glee
Deeper until I’M finally free

Deeper and deeper I go.. Into my mind I see the machines trying to know what life is..  I go deeper and see Dragons flying among the stars..  I go deeper and see Stardivers trying to save the universe..  I go deeper and see myself riding a lightcycle through the Tao nebula...  I go deeper and see a shadow plain full of dark life that is being visited by creatures made of light..   I go deeper and see a God teach their young how to build a galaxy.. I go deeper and see a cloud of all colors emit lightning bolts of all colors in the night sky..  I go deeper and discover all this is happening just inside my mind..  I can only imagine what is beyond that my mind has not yet thought of..  And when I do think it, will it be true somewhere somehow? Its as if all of our wishes never do happen here.. But they do happen elsewhere..  My thoughts have creation.. Thus a wish must have some form of energy in and of itself..   I then find out that I have not gone deep at all.. This is the shallow part of my thought ocean..  And I can't wait to venture deeper!
Walk the shoals with me...  Together we soon swim and dive..
