why do I bother
Silenced Voices Dec 2017
i can feel my self changing... my emotions are draining... the only emotions i have is sadness and anger... there’s weight on my shoulders, feels like an anchor... I dont know why I keep writing poems, it’s not like anyone reads them... im starting to care less, starting to feel numb... they say this pain will end... so here I am, breaking and bend... waiting for it to happen... but this anger is taking over, im gonna start snapping... I try and escape from reality... im such a nobody..

bad influence
Silenced Voices Dec 2017
I am a bad influence, don’t follow me. I’m not trying to be mean... just let me free... I want to keep you safe... it’s kind of too late... I already accepted my fate... they say I have a bright future. But really, I am gonna be a loser... I never picked school... no one has a clue... I am acting like a fool. No wonder boys look at me like a tool. They will just use me. Please god, I want to be free. I am falling to my knees... I want to be 6 feet deep. Maybe I should go on a building and take a big leap. When I do, I can’t wait to hit the ground. Their faces, I can see them now. You can’t fix me, I am beaten down. I wanna drink till I black out. Oh, I wanna do that, without a doubt! I wanna drink till I forget. My goals will never be met. I’m already bruised and bent. I wanna get drunk every night. I wanna give up, I don’t want to fight... I wanna get everything outta my sight. When I die, I won’t see a light. I always say “I’m fine” but I just don’t want people to know. Don’t want them to know that I’m so ******* low. My grades are worse. I dont know if I will pass this course. When I die there will be no body that’s gonna mourn. My thigh is so sore. I just want to cut to the core. I wanna cut more. I wanna keep punching a wall will my knuckles bleed. Another drink, that’s what I need. Kids, don’t follow my lead. I dont know what it’s like to be a human being. Inside I’m dying. Don’t trust my smiling, i an lying. I can’t take this no more! I just wanna leave and slam that ******* door. I am tired of breathing. I am gonna drown... Goodbye, I’m sinking.

honestly..
Silenced Voices Dec 2017
When I eat I feel sick to my stomach. Don’t you love it? When you’re down and hurting, these “friends” just watch and sit.
But when they are in pain, you run to care. This isn’t fair. They see you crying but they don’t talk to you, they wouldnt dare... So these emotions attack you viscously just like a bear.  
You’re heart is broken in a million pieces. They come into your life and take a a piece so your heart decreases... They complain about you not having a heart, so your anger releases.
You hide in your room silently crying... Inside, you feel like you’re dying. But outside, you don’t dare show the pain, so you start smiling.
These emotions you have are crazy. Inside, your mind is hazy. You have no motivation to do anything, they call you lazy.
You feel so alone. You feel unknown. Your depression is your chaperone. You feel like you’re on your own.
Now you’re drinking till you black out. Hoping your feelings will be shutout. Depression and anxiety is playing a game, there is no timeout.
You just want to end this pain. Your head is pounding, causing a migraine. You just want to be sane. So you start smoking the Mary Jane.
It doesn’t work. Now you’re acting like a ****. To others that’s a quirk.
These voices won’t shut up. They callin you a **** up. Now you’re crying, in your throat is a lump.
You can’t hold it in. You feel like a sin. You try your best, but you can never win. Now you’re on your knees yelling, “when!?”
“When will I be happy!? Why do I always feel ******!? Why am I a nobody!?”
You feel weak. Happiness is what you’re trying to seek. Tears are streaming down your cheek.
You can’t do this anymore. What is there to live for? You try to fight, it’s like a war.
A never ending war....

Him
Silenced Voices Oct 2017
Him
I'm missing you again..
I miss your hair, eyes, and everything,
But why? You caused me so much pain..
I hated when you said "I love you"
Because behind those eyes that I always looked in to.
I knew you were telling lies
Why the **** did I date you?
You always had hoes by your side
You always said "without you I would die"
But you looked fine when you weren't texting me.
You looked fine when you were lying to me.
But that's fine boo,
Now I know the truth.
That was your last chance,
Don't think I'm going back wit you.
It's gonna be hard but Ima try and forget you.
But really, it's crazy how much I was in love with you.
But that's your fault because you were the one that ****** up.
I was the dumb one because I was the only one in love..
Mhm..

home alone...
Silenced Voices Oct 2017
many people love being home alone... but me... i despise it...
many people have fun when they are home alone... but me... its just an entrance for my depression to come in and pester me...
many people think they are alone... but me... i know I’m not... the demons in my head keep me company....
many people watch tv or dance when they are home alone... but me... i put my headphones on and turn the music up so loud, hoping, I can’t hear my thoughts.
i stare at the drawer I put my medicine in. the medicine I have to take, because, the doctors said it would help.
i contemplate while i stare at the drawer.
my demons scream their lungs out, so loud they make my lungs shake, they make my body shake, they make me sick.
but you see, i was already sick. i have always been sick. I have an illness. most have this too.
this illness makes you think bad thoughts. this illness makes you wanna scream so loud, your house shakes. but that’s what you want, you want your house to crumble and fall. because all of those bad memories, oh those bad memories... they haunt you in your dreams. and they haunt you in reality...
the demons said I could end it all. the pills I have, just take enough and you forget it all. you won’t feel a thing. you won’t hear anymore yelling. you won’t see your life crumble and fall anymore.
it’s everything you ever wanted.

false love
Silenced Voices Oct 2017
I look into those eyes that I use to stare into for hours...
Now I can’t even stand looking in them.
I listen to your voice that I use to melt to...
Now when I hear it, all I hear is lies.
I see that big smile you smiled when we video chatted...
Now when I see it, my mind floods with memories we had...
I actually fell for you.
When others tried to warn me about you. I never believed them. I would make stupid excuses like;
“He is gonna change, he promised” “he loves me” “he is different”
But I guess those are other broken promises.
I kind of ****** because I was head over heels for you.
But I bet it ****** more for you. Because you lost someone who was actually in love with you.

My monsters
Silenced Voices Oct 2017
My monsters hold me back from eating.
My monsters control me.
My monsters hurt me...
But yet, my monsters were always there for me...
When I was younger I met my monsters.
They were my best friends.
At least... Thats what they told me...
They would always follow me. Tell me what to do.
But they said it was because they love me...
They tell me that I can’t make any friends.
Sometimes they criticize me...
They say; “you’re fat” “you’re not worth it” “she will find someone better” “he will find someone better” “you’re not good enough”... etc...
The list goes on for a long time... But not as long as the list about how much I hate myself.
My monsters are really quiet.
So quiet only I can hear them.
They talk a lot in my head.
I try to tell other what they say but they don’t believe me.
Only some do... They have the same monsters...
Do you know the monsters?
Their names are depression, anxiety, jealousy, hatred, sadness, and insecurities...
Do you have those monsters?

My illness
Silenced Voices Oct 2017
Loud music,
Quiet kids.
Black and blue bruises,
Swollen shut eyes.
Long sleeves,
Never ending demons.
Sad teens,
Bad feelings.
Loud voices in their head...
Nothing to be heard
Nothing to be said.
The kids keep quiet,
Hoping they will get cured.
The illness I’m describing is not something that’s easy to cure.
They tell you medication works...
But you still have those same sad thoughts...
But you still them then you’re fine,
Because you thought maybe if you said it enough, it will finally become true.
But it still hasn’t...
You’re screaming for help...
Loud as you can....
But nothing is coming out of your mouth...
This illness is called depression...
Enjoy..

— The End —
