The soul hunters came for me the other day
but it was okay,
because I don't have what they want
anyway.
Doesn't sound quite right

Accept change
with open arms,
I promise you
that the road is
not that bumpy
and that you
will be just alright

The thought of dying
occupies my mind too often
I'm not okay

The place we go to when we fall asleep
let me stay there forever, please
Because I'm not okay

In the waking hours, I stumble
around in a world of make-believe
I'm still not okay

The darkness is cold but kind
it offers me a place to hide
Can I be okay?

I'm floating around in a straitjacket
on the edge of the universe
I'll never be okay

I'm not okay
And I need you to stay
But you keep going away
But I'll try another day
A poem every day.

Don't we love stupid rhymes

I'm about to cry in class
I'm not okay
A poem every day.

Old times
Sting like
Fresh wounds
What would happen
If I cut until I bled
Then watched my life trickle out
A flood from within my veins
Staining my sheets
Ruining my bed
I really need to get off the internet.

White jet stream splits the blue sky
Serenity, I ignore what they say to me
Maybe daying be’s, laying fading beneath swaying trees
Dawning years a tease, burn away the grease
Wipe the grime away, I’m searching for signs today
Pried myself outside the lines, you stayed behind it’s okay
Thought grenade, cicadas and bees serenade,
Peeling back layers, the sour tang of marmalade
Garments handmade, dip my toes in the bluing lake
Vibrations I feel a wake, a dip in the curve
Butterfly stomach I can’t help but squirm
Serenity, I saw a white jet stream split the sky
As I wandered, I wondered why

suspended in water,
slowly sinking in.

take a deep breath,
you're engulfed in.

don't be afraid,
breathe it in
"deep breath, it's okay to fall in love again."

loving someone again, it's like your floating in a body of water, you feel it but you don't acknowledge it fully unless you let the waters engulf you completely. Scary at first but everything's gonna be al'right.
