I picture pieces peeling
White and withered
Flying,
Like wood ash from fire,
I am tiring.
A soft powder trailing
From whomever I used to be.

Breathe in
Breathe out

I'm drowning
I can't think
I'm all alone

Breathe in
Breathe out

It's all darkness
The light fled
I'm blind and lost

Breathe in
Breathe out

I can't move
I'm so tired
Everything is too fast

Breathe in
Breathe out

I can't go on
I don't want to live
I want it to stop

Breathe in
Breathe out


Breathe in
Breathe out


Breathe in
Breathe out


Breathe in....








Breathe out
This is more of a rant than a poem sorry
I've sat on this blank page
For quite some time
Just trying to come up with*
A half decent rhyme

All just to say,
I cant take this ******* **** anymore
I cant deal with this feeling anymore, I wish I could stop thinking and talking myself  out of things
I'm completely exhausted.
The fights, the screams, everything.
It makes my ears ring.

I cry myself to sleep.
Wishing I could turn back time.
When i was nothing but a child.
But I am stuck in this timeline

I gave you my everything
But all you gave to me was nothing
I promised you endless things
But now my sacrifices are just nothing

For I see you everyday
Wasting your life away
With the person I hated the most

Through thick and thin
I went through hell and back
My god what is my sin?
Why do I feel this pain?

You screamed "I hate you"
Yet I whispered "I love you"
I kept all the burden inside
Hid it and locked it forever
Within me it will reside

I tried to understand you
But you never gave me a reason to
All you cared for was yourself
Always your needs and wants
Never once of mine

All I need was you
All I wanted was you
But then you left me
And who was torn to pieces?
Nobody else but me!

While you were out there partying
I was in my room crying
While you were dancing the night away
I was slowly fading away

You had a drink in your hand
I had a razor on mine
Liquor was spilled on you
Blood was oozing from me

I am now waiting
For the darknes
It will soon engulf me
For I am long exhausted.

Everything is gray
 Nothing has color anymore
Nothing makes me happy
 I can't be happy anymore
So many thing used to make me happy
 Now those things have no meaning
I'm sick of this colorless cloud I live on
 But there is no way off
If I take a step off the cloud I will fall to my inevitable death
 I will eventually die sooner then later
Right now I think it will be sooner
 I'm tired
Mentally I'm exhausted
 I want it to end....

I'm exhausted from running,
Away from every stalking fear,
I'm so busy avoiding chances,
I don't have time to stop and see clear,

And although I don't know why,
I'm scared of what we'll become,
I'm scrambling to keep my distance
but what is there to run away from?

Even with reassurances,
and promises that you won't leave,
I just can't bring myself to give in;
Its just too risky to believe.

I trust you with all of my head,
and every piece of my soul,
but for some unknown reason,
My heart isnt willing to lose control.

Maybe because ive been hurt before,
and im not eager to relive,
The endless days that would ensue,
Or the damage you could give.

I would love to surrender,
To everything you make me feel,
but without a guarantee,
How can I be sure it's real?

The familiar need is coming back,
I'm addicted to your touch,
Which wouldnt be a problem if,
I didnt already care too much.

I'm just exhausted,

I can't bear to feel these words being stuck so far
down my throat anymore
I want to speak but the words will not escape
I feel trapped in my own skin
My blood boils,
I'm getting sick from the heat
I can't escape my thoughts
I can't eat, can't sleep

I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sooner
I'm sorry that I just let you think
That I was fading with no explanation
Not kissing back,
Not speaking much,
I don't know what else to do

I'm exhausted,
But I still love you.

Acid in my eyes
Writing, reading, researching
Leaf in vast ocean
When there are so many books and references out there and you don't know which ones to use...

****
Green smoke
I swear that there's green in the air

The color of my lenses
as such of my life

Once broken,
always broken

Who's not broken here?

I fall down where I sleep
come unbound by night
or day
I fall down exhausted
but rest will not come
within reach

I fall down
There's one explanation true
That the easy is done,
best pages are turned

it's like i'm swimming from coast to coast
but still i'm drowning everyday
by body is an unwanted host
that dosen't listen when i pray

it's like my soul is so tired
that it wants to exhaust
i'm mad and uninspired
i'm lost
