Drown me

Wrap me in silk
and send me home
I am nothing but a sinner
who knows
how to drown.

i'm very afraid
of death

and i don't
particularly
want to drown

but when you look at me
with those eyes...

perhaps i can make
an exception.

i actually have no idea what this is. but i really miss you, blue eyes.

What Should I Do

I'm afraid to be loved.
But that doesn't mean
I don't want to be loved.

I know I say mean things
about myself all the time,
but I do that to protect
myself from potential danger
and unnecessary heartache.

I'm only human,
or perhaps a bit too human.
I can't deal with too much hardship
because it will only make me
spawn an ocean of melancholy.

And I do not want people to see
me drown in my own weakness.
I simply can't allow it.

So I **** it up and carry on.
You might think my mindset
is brave and indeed
it is, to some degree.

But most of all it is painful.
It's so ******* painful.
But I'll get through it, I have to;
until I crash and burn.

I’m scared of people / I’m learning how to appreciate myself

I’m uncomfortable under my own skin
I urge to chew it off when I’m frustrated
I’m pathetic that my teeth doesn’t pierce through
Maybe I deserve the pain I want
Maybe it’s better to conflict pain on my body rather then all over my heart
sometimes I feel I conflict my problems
I feel like it’s the reason I want to exit my body
I’m not worthy
people have acknowledged that I don’t got anything worth listening too
It sometimes leads me to dislike talking
It leads me to hating and being scared of people
I drown in anxiety
my heart is beating fast as I avoid eye contact
I’m an embarrassment
no one should see my body
I don’t even dare people to see
my beautiful human spirit,
because I can’t even see,
and I live with it.

Show love, I needed to let it out. Thank you if you read ❤️

peace

I’ve swam the seven seas, till I almost drown.
I’ve broken my heart so many times that I finally lost count.
I’ve lost my way somewhere beyond the trees.
If you could help me find it….
I’m looking for peace.

i'm such a hypocrite

can someone teach me
how to take my own advice?

because i've been
telling others
to swim ashore
as i drown

I'm happy to hurt to see you

Let me keep falling in this whirlwind
My heart fluttered but you made it thunder
This storm wants me turn more of the pages of you
The Coldness made me crave you
You gave me warmth
Inside grows stronger
Let me please keep Burning in You
You’ll never know
This warmth has become this scorching heat for you
You are the Joy I have no right to have
Imagining holding you and be held by you
Suffocates me, takes all of me, takes the oxygen out of my lungs
I’ll never know regret
You are love and happiness and hope
You are my Sun and you are also the Sea
Please let me forever drift in you
I want to forever Drown in You

Lies

I started to tell the lie that shes fine and that shes okay
She's a little bit sick that's why she looks so down today.
But she's not fine and this feeling wont go away
That aching feeling that makes her chest drown in its own blood
That little spark of hope washed away within the flood
Her grounds were shaking yet I still lied
Her soul was crumbling every part of her died
But she tries her hardest to laugh and joke
I was just there to make sure on her lies she didnt choke
I just wish there was something I could have done to make it alright
But I left her stranded on her battle field losing her own fight
She didn't break down until she was alone in her room that night
She scratched at her wrist wishing it would be the last
The last time that she remembered her old haunting past
She felt sleepy so she slept not thinking it would be her last
She died right there she died alone drowning in her past.
