Why do you despise me?
You treat me, abuse me like a puppet to be used,
Yet I don’t complain,
I never do.
I let you destroy me to release your pain,
Because I understand you
But you don’t understand me.
You look at my dead eyes
As you stab me with your words,
Never feeling guilt, never stopping
Because why should you?
Destroy me all you want
**** me all you want
Because I don’t really give a **** about my life
It only exists because of you
It only exists for you.
Despite all my desperate attempts to please you;
Want me to have good grades, done
Want me to pursue your plans, done
Want me to be happy, never.
I can never tick all the boxes.
I’m not prefect
I wish I was.
Remember that day when you found out I wanted to **** myself?
That really shaped me,
That day I did try
To remove my existence
Because you made it clear that
Mental pain is not part of your checklist
And I don’t think it will ever go away.
You don’t know how much I hurt,
3am in the corner of my room
Lighter in hand, fire tickling my skin,
You ignore I’m drowning
And just push me further down
Into the depths of my never ending darkness.
I’m alone, just like you.
You think my best friend knows everything
But really she’s the one who I lie to the most,
Constantly saying “I’m fine don’t worry”
When my whole body is on fire,
And I will do anything to stop my life
Even just for a minute.
You ignore my words,
Even the kind ones like “how are you”.
You treat me with constant silence
Only speaking to destroy me,
And that’s what hurts the most.
Why can’t you see that I’m a human too?
Why can’t you see that I’m under too much pressure?
Why can’t you see that I’m so close to being dead?
Because I don’t despise you
Like you despise me,
I wish I did
But you are like me, alone.
You live in denial, I live in reality.
I just wish you understood me
Like I understand you.

When darkness falls
And swallows me whole,
When my soul leaves my body
And I’m no longer living
Just existing,
When I’m drowning in the
Yawning waters that
Crave to taste my
Bitter tears,
Echoes of
Screams
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
Ring in my innocent ears.
They paint my mind a shade of grey,
Stain my childhood like
Ink on a linen cloth,
Bleeding until I’m nothing
But darkness.
I’m covered in invisible scars from
Every time you grasped your
Cold, strong fingers
On her scarred neck,
Wishing to remove her existence
In front of my pleading, teary eyes.
Echoes of
Screams
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
Ring in my innocent ears.
Im branded with the plates, cups, mugs
That you shattered in a fit of rage,
Shards of glass
Hidden under my cold skin
Digging into my life
As you muttered death.
Pieces of me shatter
As I grow in silence,
Learning that I’m always the problem,
Learning that I’m always the cause,
Learning that you’d be better off without me.
Echoes of
Screams
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
Ring in my innocent ears.
Wiping your tears,
Hiding in the car
From the unrecognisable monsters
That grew in our love-
Broke my innocence.
“Hush, they still love
Even if they hurt.”
Words and moments that
Sting my heart when they
Come flooding back,
Drowning me in my lost childhood.
Echoes of
Screams
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
Ring in my innocent ears.
When you scratch the
Polished glass
You trap me in,
My body makes a cold embrace,
Sending goosebumps around my ruined skin
Waiting to attack as we all
Plead my heart to stop beating,
So I can flee from the cage and the
Echoes of
Screams
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
That ring in my innocent ears.
When reality replaces the echoes,
When they are no longer the past
But the present,
When the angry monster comes again,
They conjure up the
Flame that ignited that day,
Burning inside,
Slowly eating at my flesh
Until I’m ashes of the
Scream
Shouts
Crashes
Cries
That pain my vulnerable ears.

I remember the music was loud enough
that she could not hear even a single thing.
But...sorry to say...the voices were louder.

Sputtering out words
I felt the emotion
Collect upon my face
In tiny droplets
Passion and hatred
Streak the same
As they run
Down your face

There is a whole world inside you
Waiting to be shown.
When you be yourself, you be new.
Let your inner truth be known.
Each sunrise shouts for you to shine
The passion that lives in your heart.
Step straight though the finish line
For it is really just the start!

Another life, lost
It's such a pity
Up the bay coast
Near the city
You and me
Truth and a lie
How do you see?
A knot or a tie
I scream
You shout
Like that dream
You had doubt
Took your way
In the car
Till this day
I hear from far
Accident caused
Your body found
Speeding forced
Car tumble around
Me at the scene
You in blood
Tortured my sin
Tears now flood
Dressed in black
You in coffin
My emotions lack
Thoughts popping
Buried in peace
I sit on your grave
Torn in piece
For you, I crave
Beside my grave
You lay buried
None were brave
Else we'd be married
Tears more tears
Screams and shout
Fear! now I fear
Which way is out!!

A WKD bottle and
Pizza slices on the table
Everybody waiting in anticipation
For that beat to drop
Holding each other
In a circle
Arms around each others waist
Smiles spreading laughter
As the magic
Creates swearing and shouts
Somebody's guts
Flushed down the sink
In cleaning products
Shots being taken
Faces pulled
As they squeal for the burning to leave
Time to go home.

Some pitches are so high
That when one shouts
No one could listen
Except for the animals.

It was but a dreary day
When the crows began to pray
When the harks began to sing
When the doves began to shout
All had gone upside down
Even the worst of them were begging for help
While the so called holy ones started the riots

hyperactive minds,
autistic souls;
hefty thoughts,
whispering shouts.
sitting under the face of god
forcing me to bow lower than my red sleeves.
feeling relentless and reckless at the same time,
my answer to everything will be "i'm fine".
cure? cure for having a realistic philosophy?
oh, dear. i am a lost case.

I hear some of you say
that I'm going crazy but
I don't give a first.
Give me something surreal at least
so I can buy it and go behind the shed
to smoke a cigarette.
Everyone's a combination
of happiness and craziness and
some would lose and some one win.
If you failed, remember
that every time you re-miss
you're hiding from your true self
in a real world.
Pretend you're happy, fine, cray,
totally out of control at times.
Start crying to the mirror
if you don't know what to do or say.
The art of living is in your head.
I hear some of you say
that I'm making them smile and happy but
I don't give a first.
Believe me, If i feel the same I'd buy you a hundred candles
and left 21 candles to be blunt
or give anything just to feel that
on my skin
