new

i feel new,
i no longer have chains holding me down,
i no longer feel like i have to take my time,
hold my tongue; be a good girl now,

i feel new,
i can stretch my arms i won't me a brick wall,
taunting me; i want out but they hate when i am free,

i feel new,
i can feel the sun on my skin, the rain on my lips,
the wind in my hair, the love in your kiss,

i am new,
no longer in the past,
i am the future,
i'm more than happy with that.

this is the first poem i've written in a long time. Most of my poems have been really dark so i wanted to draw back the curtain and let the sun in

I Should Tell Him

I told him the other day what I was feeling
He looked me in the eyes and left me where I was standing
He has a way of making me smile
While I cry on the inside
And the odd ability of making me mad
When I'm ecstatic just to be in his space

It felt so good to finally be known
Even if was right in front of his girl
But what do I care
When the feelings I have eat me up
I have to say something before I am eaten alive
And it that is telling you that I love you
That's just what's going to happen

Sorry to you, TR I never meant to cause any issues. I hope you know that!

between numb and nothing

between numb and nothing,
i was somewhere in between.
where you felt lonely,
i felt relief.

— we had two very different endings

dont like the title of this one i cant think of one that i like enough. but ive had this sitting around for awhile like months and wanted to give you all some content. feel free to suggest a better title if you can provide one that fits with in my title style.

Reflection

I was walking down the street
I saw someone
Something
on the curb
Looking down
Eyes
like ice
Hair
Rosy red
I came over
No movement
Stopped at the edge of the bubble
Then took the step into his world

It was cold
People were screaming
My chest hurt
My eyes burned
The boy was rocking
His thoughts Pleading for relief
Too look away
from the face staring back

interpret how u please ^^

Stupid heartache

Once upon a time,
I felt a heartache.
The stinging pain,
Quite weird & strange.

Insomnia struck along,
Can memories be this strong?
There's nothing a pill can't ****,
Gulped a bottle to get my survival on.

Woke up being freed,
Of all the pain & obnoxious memories.
Happy, I closed the gate of miseries,
Jumped into the sky, over my body.

Artist's Stress & Relief

Creating titles, crafting lyrics
Working out the flow
Of words with occasional rhyme
Needing a pianist
But he's the only one

Hiding the purpose
Asking him to play
Hope to create a piece that flows
Or tell him
Create a masterpiece together
And share it
So, a surprise or a duet

The rest of the songs
To be presented
Writing no wrongs
All segmented
Overall;
Our story

Six pieces
Possibly new releases
For a new artist
Finally, something I shall have accomplished

So many things to do
Leaves dripping with the morning dew
Shadows long
Beneath the treetop
And I sing along
A lyric or two I'll swap
Just fix the flux

This verse needs repair
But as long as I'm with you
I don't care
About a silly verse
Or the color or the hue
In those eyes, I immerse

I hope to join a band
Here I hold your hand
Making you smile
While for you, I go the extra mile

For you
I won't give up
Won't back down
If I have one slip-up
It'll be not capturing you in words
I'm feelin' like such a clown
Messin' around
My feet barely touch the ground
As I fly with you
In the sky so blue.

I'm writing an album for my love. So far I've started writing a couple of the songs, but it's hard coming up with the lyrics.

Death has no face

Death came on a card
inside the walls of me and my bedroom
No clear answer, but when I put it down on the dresser
I saw the skeletons of last winter

Every time I look outside
it’s dark again

I never know if it’s the evenings
that erase me, or the tide of the morning
that pulls me under

Whatever it is
it follows me
faceless

Relief

I'm soppused to feel relief
Now that the holidays are over
But why do I feel worse?

Good morning finally school holidays are over But I don't feel right

Willing

TW: Self Harm

If I’m willing
What’s so wrong?
If I want to watch myself bleed
Why shouldn’t I?
If it offers relief
If it’s satisfying
If it eases the never-ending agony
Of breathing
Why shouldn’t I slit my wrists?

Maybe someone at suicide prevention will explain it to me

Bleeding Again

tw: self harm

Instant
Powerful
Relief
To just
Stop
Fighting
And drag
The blade
Across
The
Wrist

Forgot how much I like that....
