I am full of feelings
Everywhere
All the time
Sometimes they are so powerful
They consume me alive
Materialize Madness
Incite my moral decline

shake it off they say
    but they dont understand that trying to fight
                     your own mental illness
    is worse than finding a needle in a stack of hay.
           often i struggle to get through the day

Angrily hanging up a smartphone lacks gravitas - jabbing a virtual button doesn’t offer the satisfying, physical release of slamming down a receiver.
Sometimes you gotta show and feel - represent - your emotions
You think I fear you?
You are nothing,
I repeat you are nothing.
A dust mite.
Trapped, cornered, scared.
I am the mower.
Coming to do a job,
Cut the bad seed.
Save the crops.
But there you are.
This isn't Horton hears a Who.
For me this is just a normal day.
But you,
Well this is a horror film.
I'm the main villian,
Big difference is,
I leave no survivors,
I'm the only reoccurring character.
Now tell me who fears who...

Sometimes, when I’m around you
I wonder
How much would it take
To push my heart back into place

To reach in
And stop it from pounding
And pounding
Against my ribs
The sound so loud in my ears
The throbbing pressing against my lungs

Leaving no room
No space

For
The air
I so
Desperately

Desperately

Need.

Tell me.
How much longer
Until
You
Leave.

My words are merciless,
Over time they get so much energy
They gather up and like a wave
And fiercely run over the ocean
They swell up from the welled up anger
Nobody could be saved from this monstrous motion
These glutinous tides hold the power
To destroy everyone in their wrath

But all they do is crash against the rocks

There were things I kept in my heart
Buried deep within their graves
They were meant only to be whispered
Now in this storm of life I have to shout them out
I can’t keep quiet anymore
Can’t act artificial and leave doubts
Keep the secrets locked in the store
Call me a billion of things but know,

All I ever am is an unorthodox

run
your greedy hands are no greedier than mine,
as your fingers travel past my waistline,
thinking that i’m about to waste my time
on a man like you,
“too good to be true,”
kinda borrowed, about to be blue.
my greedy hands will clench,
as i lean closer on that bench,
ignoring your disgusting cigarette stench.
“i’ll break your ******* jawline
if your hands don’t leave my waistline,”
and you didn’t waste time

running away.
it’s 2:37am and i went to a bar for the second time in my life on my own volition, and a guy grabbed my ***.

Ive taken your bullets
Your punches, your slaps
Your stings, your comments
The words behind my back

Ive taken the embarrassment
All your belittling lies
Ive taken your huffs, your puffs
Your eye rolls and sighs

Ive taken your pointed fingers
Brushed it off, held my tongue
You make mistakes and say "im human"
But go up the chain if i make one

How hypocritical, How conniving
How stupid you must be
To think I'll be your punching bag
I've got more worth than that in me

So if this is how I go out
With your target on my back
Then, please, take your best shot
Cuz im never coming back.
My new manager has targeted me wver since she arrived. I cant take ther verbal and emotional abuse anymore.
