Everything is not okay
Now don’t ask me anything
Please just don’t
I feel like blowing up
I feel like screaming
It’s one of those days.
I’m in pain
I’ll admit it
If you can’t tell
I’m broken
I can’t think straight
I can’t talk
I can’t talk
I can’t breathe
The air is suffocating me
Just like hanging yourself
It feels like an anxiety attack
Everything is spinning
I’m shaking in fear
My silent screams are loud
The voices are louder
Just please let it go
Cut my life short
**** me already
I cant feel it
I can feel the hate
The anxiety
Everything is so bad
Everything is out of place
My heart beats faster with everything I do
My heart can just break away
Just like a wine glass
Just like my soul
Just like everything and anything else
But one thing I can say
Please don’t ask me if I’m okay
We all know the answer
Don’t ask me about my family life
I know how I feel
And don’t ask me why I’m sad
For you haven’t been through what I’ve been through
And you will not understand
Why I’m in pain

she feels the absence of anyone touching her,
imagines what it would be like to have
that pretty boy
touch his velvet lips to hers,
imagine what it would be like to feel
his magic rub off on her
to have his words
circulate in her head until she's drunk off his poetry.
she knows
this will never happen,
knows he will soon see into her abyssal soul
realize the cuts run deeper than the ones on her wrist,
realize her storm is
a bit too wild for him.
philophobia- the fear of being loved (of falling in love, though this alternate definition is not relevant for the poem)

I’m sorry that I wasn’t good enough
She is prettier, and smarter
I can see why you wanted her
Is it my fault?
Did I do something wrong?
If I did, I’m sorry
This poem is about my ex-boyfriend
I’m still broken-hearted but I hope the breaks can be fixed
But I’m not sure that they can
Is it me?
I’m sorry that I’m not what you wanted
Is it so wrong to want to feel loved? To feel wanted?
Is it so wrong….?
I’m almost over it
I could cry because of him and i wouldn’t realize it
Did I do something wrong?
Is it my fault?
It can’t be me…. Right?
I don’t miss him
I just wonder what I did wrong
What did I do wrong?
I’m sorry that I wasn’t good enough
This poem was written a while ago so it isn't one of my best

I DO NOT LOVE MYSELF.

I SEE MY SCARS
AND A PAST FULL OF BROKEN HEARTS.
I SEE A GIRL WHO REFUSES TO EAT
FOR GAINING ANY WEIGHT WOULD MEAN DEFEAT
I SEE MYSELF AND START TO CRY,
MY SMILE IS A COMPLETE LIE.

I DO NOT RECOGNIZE MYSELF.

I LOOK AT MY REFLECTION AND WHAT DO I SEE?
I SEE SOMEONE ELSE WHO ISN’T ME.
SHE STAYS UP ALL NIGHT,
UNTIL THE SUN BLINDS HER SIGHT.
SHE CAN’T EVEN SLEEP ANYMORE,
SHE LOST INTEREST IN EVERYTHING.
SHE’S SUCH A BORE.

I’M SCREAMING, SHE’S SCREAMING,
PLEASE TELL US WE’RE DREAMING.
LIVING IN A WORLD WHERE WE CANT LOVE OURSELVES,
WATCHING ONES WE LOVE, LOVE SOMEONE ELSE.

AND THEN ONE DAY I MET A BOY,
AND FINALLY MY HEART WAS FILLED WITH JOY.
THOUGH HE LIVES SO FAR AWAY,
HE DOESN’T FAIL TO MAKE MY DAY.
I ONLY HOPE HE NEVER SEES
ALL THE DEMONS INSIDE OF ME.

You see her..

You see her face

You see her take a slow pace

You see her smile

You think it’s beautiful

You see her with her friends

You see her with the trends

You see her popularity

You don’t see her crying..

You don’t see the ocean in her eyes..

You don’t see her happiness was all lies..

You don’t see her broken heart..

You don’t see that faded light..

You don’t see the walls she put up..

You don’t see her about to blow up..

You don’t see how she pushes everything down..

You don’t see her scars..

You don’t see how unhappy she is..

You don’t see her..

Devil I see you there..

Staring back at me..

I see you there

Taunting me

I hear you

Whispering

I hear your

Unkind words


Put those words in my head

Put those thoughts in my head

Tell me i’m worthless

Tell me i’m better off dead

Tell me the worst things ever

I will listen..


Devil tell me

Should I take that step

Should I cross

Should I take the bottle

Should I drink up

Should I pull

Should I give up

Devil tell me


Why are you so quiet all of the sudden

Can’t handle this?

You killed me

You pretended

You broke me

You killed me

Don’t want hear the truth?

Too ******* bad.

The counted sheep
Have become closer to me
Than you are
As far away as can be
In our full sized bed
That you persuaded me
Was just right for a couple
As in love as we.

And now I am left
The sheep and me
In a full sized bed
With an un-full heart
Un-loved
Un-restful
And not Un-married.

Green Kisses

it’s grotesque.
The hum drum sound your lips make when they’re sour.
it’s a shame I love sour candy.
she’s so lost, just look at her
does she even know no one wants her here?

Pity.
On you.

For assuming I was anything less than your opinions.
is it because I wear my hair down in loose tendrils, so you can see them twirl.
or is it because I wear shorts, so you can see the scars,
I doubt you noticed those anyways.

you seem to only have eyes for the lime eyed monster in the mirror.
is he as pretty as you?

I wish you could understand why I sit in the back, why I speak when spoken to, why I never smile.

You.
I imagine you figure it’s because of you,
isn’t everything
because of you?

Or you’d like to assume it is.

Your hands, dead grass green with vanity,
While I, dousing myself in insanity,
hope , that, maybe one day you’ll see colors less loved.

There is not a day, I don't wish to be seen
As a woman straight out of a dream.
