Heavy Hearted Jan 2018
Lonely candle blinking bare,
Sultry darkness- illuminate
to Glowing silhouettes I stare
& solemnly appreciate.
Ronald J Chapman Jan 2018
Spending my whole life, looking down,
with tears falling on God's acre,

Hoping flowers would grow,
never seeing roses bloom.

Never realizing,
you left this place long ago.

Until that fateful day,
God gave me the gift,
to see a short glimpse of Heaven
with you standing there with Angel wings.

Your love, waiting for me in Heaven.

Today I look up at Heaven's stars,
sharing your love with others,
through words and pictures, every day.

Mercy the one who no longer feels
She has been through a lot
Bless her who gives to people
She has nothing for herself
Love her who loves everyone
She has always been alone.
Have pity on her.
She is tired.
Death is her only resolve now.
And there i felt something. A realization that i have a lot of friends but i am always alone.

Despite how
invincible
I feel now
in this moment
surely sometime
today or tomorrow
I'll be beginning
to feel the
opposite again

I've got a dark place in my heart.
A place that likes hurt,
A place that accepts abuse,
And in this place I find solace,
I find warmth and confusing joy,
So hit me as hard as you can,
Beat me until I can cry no more,
But never say you'll leave me.
That, I could not endure.
I'm trying to find new coping mechanisms.

I'm not the girl who thrives on being in a relationship
I'm not the girl who moves around like a ship
I'm not the girl who just "takes a dip"
just for the sake of trying.

I'm not the girl who will kneel and bow
I'm not the girl who will wipe the sweat off his brow
I'm not the girl who will just let him plow
right on over me

I'm the girl who will drive you mad
I'm the girl who isn't "bad"
I'm the girl who makes the fads
I'm the goody-goody

I'm the girl who is still a ******
I'm the girl who will continue to burgeon
I'm the girl who will never go to a surgeon
just so I can be the same

I'm the girl who will give you all my heart
I'm the girl who been broken from the start

so love me if you can
I don't expect you to understand
That I don't need you to be "grand"
I just need you to be mine.
To burgeon=to grow or rapidly flourish.

Sometimes I think
About all my flaws
So I take the blade
To my bare wrist
And make a slice
Into my skin

Sometimes when there are pills in my house
Or nearby to where I am
I get an urge
To find the bottle
And swallow its contents

Sometimes when I’m alone
In my bedroom at night
I think about how much I hate myself
And that I would be better off dead

But if it weren’t for
Certain people
Those “sometimes” would be “all the times”
And I would be dead
Obscrea Dec 2017
I think I miss you a lot
More than I realize
Because things keep
Happening and I
Always

Find myself wishing
That I could tell you
All about them.
