#literally
are we done here? let me make you a list of today; that even you don't make me feel better and sitting listening to music in my room is empty empty empty; looks like i am back to repeating and drowning in the crazy in my head god; i am standing on the precipice, my love and what if i was there on a different day what if the bridge without the railing had fallen into the river in hawaii would you have stood over me and said you're alive you're alive you're alive i just want to die

i was getting better
Pain affects immediately, sticks around indefinitely The headcount is up to sixty over infinity And right around the corner is another three Meaning it's always in the vicinity And every type lands just a smidge differently This feels like what I might imagine to be purgatory Woe is me My future will be winless if I'm too stay in the business of learning from my history The bell to start the fight indicates the end, just prematurely Loosing in a victory, contradictory absurdity mentioned literally, All ***** nilly As I'm sure you can imagine, maybe even probably agree Somethin' like that is bound to change the complexion of a personality I know personally I'd hoped good days would roll in gradually, at least eventually Instead they taunt relentlessly It's with a heavy, often broken, heart I go in and defend half heartedly Enjoying the savagery, a familiarity that relaxes me But positions me next to the poisons amidst the pageantry In the direct line of sight of my worst enemy Me looking back at me directly "You're talking to yourself again Jeremy..." ...shiit, sorry ©2024

Smile your Marie Kondo smile on me- Just smile and pretend it can be done She is a tank against common sense. Invasion of clear mind. I never tidy up, my life's a mess. Marie Kondo though makes me feel even less. Completely disarmed my will to feel.

you may hate the truth about this life. you may hate the fact about the path that you had already thrown. you may hate the feelings about the feels that you had already expressed. this world literally has nothing. has nothing nonetheless you. you just can’t accept what had already occurred. you just can’t take it sincerely. this world changes every millisecond. you just can't beat it. the world literally ignores you. you are the failure for a particular person. but you are the only one who can fill your voidness. you are the one who can bring influentialness to another person. before another person did it to you, worse and shameful. humans are exactly imperfect. but again, depends on what you did to your life, take yours wisely. humans deserve to be happy in their own ways, their life might be not happy to face the "ways" they take. time does matter to use it perfectly.

how the world literally works
A palindrome isn't a palindrome, intriguingly   How can that be? That something isn't itself by definition, literally ...Am I really me?

Palindrome's Irony
Hope set on repetition Single sentences, remittance Cataclysmic, for a single state Left to divide the remainder Still, hypnotic trained psychosis Found me scoffing at the notion Growing old, centered delusional Truth for something final Dead-set pan, follow the camera, love that emotion, let it seep through Lost, toppled bridges surrounding Found more than a fair share of ashes Corridors narrow enough... Almost one in the morning, lost in the middle of some state or another Neon lights come to a head, followed by the sound of the loose bulbs rattling in their sockets Sounds of something crawling in the walls I bet it all on retention My whole life, I bet it all on retention Marketable skills, not likely Fighting for a timepiece that I know despises, time will pass One way or another Make it last, fat chance Almost out of change and past Mistakes ring straight through glass Mark the date I have a love hate relationship with nice weather Warm nights in particular, where it would be just slightly too hot if not for a nice cross breeze Bearable, when I've got company Not that I have much company to spare

I literally can’t go to the mall Without doing my homework first. And I literally can’t take my money Without carrying a purse. I literally can’t text my friends Without having my parents see. I literally can’t leave the house Without having my annoying brother with me. I literally can’t do this and that. I literally can’t own a cat. There are literally so many things I want to do, But I LITERALLY can’t do those, too.

I Literally Don’t Understand
I don't care about what they're saying bad things about me I don't care if you hate me I'm just trying to be me, what can I do? I'm not trying to be cool You're just judging me Yet, you're the one bringing up my bad side Stop acting like we know each other Stop being like you know my story But still always remember I don't care about you.

I don't care
the guitar is shaking while it delivers a mellow sound her voice is sweeter than the night before "how'd ya make it so vulnerable?" he asks timidly "it's just the feeling" maybe it's the guitar, I thought to myself after she stopped singing I bought her a drink gave her a kiss and call it a day for her we went to sleep like the first time we just stared at each other's eyes listening to the night sometimes I wish we could go back

Joke
I was born With bones so strong No wind, storm blade nor razor Not even the laser Could ever break thy Not until We cross the path Not until I heard your voice Not until I laid my eyes on you Not until We say our first "hello" Not until You let me fell for you Not until You didn't catch me Coz since then, I was, is, and will be literally and metaphorically, BROKEN.

Broken
How many of you here counted your last moment? How many of you wondered if your last breath breathed would be the moment you would own it? How many of you published words as if it would be the last you write? How many here read those words? Hugging them long into the night? How many of you tried to say exactly what you feel, but failed? How many times did you edited it every single word, every line? Just to post it so it was unveiled? How many times did you refresh the words that you have lied? How many times have you typed every tear that you have cried? How many times did you say I love you in a thousand letters **As many times as it takes you to make the world seem better** Your poetry is as important as the balm upon a soul Your words caught upon a page are a literal bomb

Poetry! Literally 'da Bomb'
I wake up feeling like nothing is real and my heart beats and I'm panicking and I'm sweating and I want to die I don't really understand why I cry If I could just get over it, I promise you I would

i feel like i'm dying (literally)
You don't need to reply my text in a ten to make me like you You don't need to have a perfect skin condition You don't need a artistically beautiful shaped accent Nor do you need to sweet talk me into anything Because you see The boy who I loved had none of those things We talked till the sun rose though now if I ever get a text from him I will be as excited as if there was a solar eclipse occurring His skin had many pimples but and his hair was another story But I looked pass those and saw the way the dimples on his cheeks Rose out and I saw the way his brown eyes lit They were the most beautiful things I have seen I no longer know his imperfections because I have fell in love With every one of them He never could complete a sentence without stopping to clear his throat Though now he speaks well and high But I am still in love with his long pauses His pimples His little stupid comments Maybe now I have learnt Maybe now things would be better Maybe love could be better After all What is worse than falling in love with the most Stupid boy

really?
I said I was walking on glass You took me seriously And asked me to stop You told me to think Of other ways to deal With the crisis at home And the pain I feel I said it was figurative What are you talking about I chuckled to myself Because I'd actually do that But I'm fine Just not at home 'Cause I'm walking on glass But not literally Figuratively

Figuratively
I notice everything. And by everything, I literally mean everything. I notice when someone stops hitting me up like they used to. I notice when the way someone talks to me starts changing. I notice the little things that people do, and the little things they used to do. I notice when things change, and when it’s no longer the same. I notice every single little detail. I just don’t say anything. I'm not that different I'm just depressed I miss him and I'm sad, ok?

Because I can't literally run away, I go for jogs in sun drenched days. Because tragedy is in my life, I always turn back around.

I spent the last half hour Looking up names of fears. Fourteen I named mine, but I'm afraid to tell my peers.
