A distance.
You are a part of me,
that was taken away.
Little did I know that with out you,
I fall apart completly.

I look at your face,
behind you an airport;
where you leave me,
for who knows how long.

And you never know how much I break,
and I don't want you to ever find out.
Though you often see glimpses of this-
calling you crying, desperate for
someone to hear me out.

Don't leave me again,
I can't take it anymore,
you mean more to me than
anyone else.
Don't forget that.

I will always need you,
and one day we will find a way
for you to stay.

But for now, you leave tomorrow.
But for now, I will keep breaking.
But for now, we will keep wishing.

And the next time I see you I will try
to fill you in on life here.
But I don't ever think you
will keep up.

So I will see you later,
whenever later may be.
adept Apr 2018
A year ago my life changed,
terminal illnesses did the deed.

The deed that was simply a
mystery in front of millions
that had no idea how to go
about solving it.

Cancer.

And now it is done with and
a year has passed,
but with the passing of time
came the passing of grief
as We Have Been Cured.
adept Mar 2018
I can't get away,
you always seem to be there.
In times it feels like I need you to be gone,
you seem to always stick around.

Maybe its an unhealthy relationship- forced,
where as I try to get away,
while even court says I must stay.

You could do the world wrong,
but nothing is done for me;
my life has been surrounded by choices I was
forced to make because of you.

The choices that have made me sick and tired-
a never ending cycle that is.
And thanks to you it has been made
abundantly clear,
that I must not,
and will not
ever escape.
Make the choice that is best for you and see into the future, it will work better that way in the long-run, even if you are miserable at first.
adept May 2018
if being the subject of a
poem is unwanted,
maybe you should think
before you speak.
adept Mar 2018
I've lost control

I don't know what's wrong

I want the ground to swallow me whole

I want to run

And I want to minimize damage done to myself,
Which is only done by pushing you
Away.
adept Mar 2018
I can’t think for
Myself
Everyone around me
Is getting better and
I am just stuck.

Everyone around me
Is independent and
Successful,
Leaving me
Hanging fire.

No one listens,
No one is there,
No one cares,
But yet I am forced
Into believing things
That are wrong,
In my eyes.

Forced to believe you.
adept Mar 2019
i have begun to live day by day
without my worries
which i have now left behind.
and living has come easy
all thanks to You.
my new beginning
adept Apr 2018
I get in the car and
Burst into tears.
I am not sure what
Has gotten into me,
There has been a lot
On my mind I guess.
I am starting to believe
Everyone’s opinions-
But I have to be strong
For my own good.
Don’t judge the people around you, trust me they have enough going on without you joining in.

a trauma suffered by the innocent
was the picture painted.

that little boy deserved love
but just sitting next to him in that police station
told me he got the opposite

he had burns on his legs
and bruises on his face

he was only 8
“what r u here for?”
adept Apr 2018
so many People talk about me behind my back,
They are claiming to be my friend and
make fun of me.
have They ever thought "maybe she is tired of it
and thats why she doesn't laugh"?

i wish i was different too and
if only you knew what i do to make
others happy. but i will give you a hint
and it involves making myself miserable.

and all i need you to do is stop and think
for only one second before you speak of me.
adept Jul 2018
i am trying to go through
this with you and take it step by step,
but we seem to be going in
opposite directions.

you towards the fault line
and me towards the light,
but to our surprise, you
end up getting through
this without me in the end.

i have started a fire that i tend to
chase with gasoline, in effort to put it out.

i have obliterated all in my
path of destruction and can’t seem to
slow down.
adept Mar 2018
Too much passion within us for the things        
We know too well;
That are so familiar,
Yet so wrong.
Minds filled with
A fire,                                    
A flood.                                
Things that won’t change.
That can’t change.

For every corner that’s turned,
It’s there.
There’s no escaping.
It’s in your blood.
A fire,
A flood.

But the things that can’t be escaped
Are faced.
And the
Fire and flood
Take control.

A change occurs in
A mind that’s distant,
A mind thats fire and flood
Determines indifference.
adept Apr 2018
i try to be okay,
or seem that way at least
but the ground is flying out
from under me.

i am not in my right mind,
it has become too much
and i have to get out of here.
"I was below empty"
adept Jul 2018
i’ve held on for awhile now,
and all the while telling others
to let go. so this time i am going
to listen to myself, i will
officially let go now that i know
the truth, and it’s a long fall to
rock bottom.
it feels good to be freed from your own conscience.
adept Apr 2018
Though you only mean to protect me
a lot of the time you do just the opposite.
adept Apr 2018
they call me a liar.
and i admit that i am,
but the thing is that
i don’t care because
i stopped feeling a
long time ago.
except that is a lie too
"Am I the only one I know, waging my wars behind my face and above my throat"
adept Jun 2018
i found that i am not entitled
to those who care for me most.
mainly because my heart
is incapable of returning the favor.
i try, believe it or not.

I know there is little chance of you seeing this.
But it is just a reminder to you,
that sometimes people have to do
things that are unconvinient for them to make a
healthier, better life for you.

People are sick, and another person
may have to take themselves away to
make them better.
adept Dec 2019
i’ve hated u for a long time.
u took everything from me
my home, family, faith, happiness, and sanity
u were angry
so angry u hurt us
and so drunk u didn’t remember
i wanted to get away but i couldn’t escape
do u know who u r or what u have done?
u have turned into the man that u hate the most
and don’t seem to care
u have hurt ur only son
who doesn’t understand and u know better
a full grown man is supposed to have more empathy and sense than a child with disabilities
yet he won’t call u dad anymore
he even knows better
i want my life back
i want u to not be so blind

but now ur sick
and i don’t know what to feel
now i’m scrambling for guidance
and u don’t even have a clue
adept Apr 2018
I have a tendency
To worry about others
Who don’t seem to care about me.
Scared for them even,
Which is  weird
Because the only thing that has
Really ever scared me
Would be disappointing
Others.

there are often times i am caught in a
position i can’t handle.
i want more than anything to make everyone  happy, not being able to do
that tears me apart. it’s an endless
cycle of what happens to be
my biggest fear; disappointment.

but i have learned, that no matter how hard i try, i can’t save the world
forever unfinished business
adept Apr 2018
you like to rip me to pieces
every chance you get
then pick me back up
and try to put me back together
like a puzzle,
execpt now, i am too damaged to be
put back together,
my pieces don't fit together like
they are supposed to-
like everyone else.
and even some are left missing...
to be specific
the only piece truly missing
would be the one
in between my third and forth rib,
on the left side of my chest.
adept Oct 2018
no, i didn’t forgive you
out of love mercy or
sympathy.
i forgave because
someday i would need the same
treatment

I have been in this
Position one too many
Times, and this time
Hurts the worst.
But the reason I help,
The reason I care, is
Because I realize that
You have been there too
And I look up to you for
Getting through it.

it’s easy to be sad
when you have nothing to live for.
OLOL
adept Jul 2019
accepting sadness is hard.
harder than it should be.
and i often think that acceptance
simply wasn’t meant for me
it’s for the better
adept May 2018
i don't know what to do,
i feel so guilty and would
switch places with you if i could.
but the world and the way it works
is cruel and doesn't work like that.
adept May 2019
we are toxic.
you miss me and resent me because of it
ashamed that someone like you
could love someone like me.
so you burry your emotions under other girls.
and i think that’s okay.
because we are both moving on slowly
we are both tired
we are both hurting
if only
adept Oct 2018
i need you to come back home,
but even the people that deserve
the best don’t earn the best.

and that alone, is hell.
adept Apr 2018
People see through to you
even when you don't want
them to.
So don't do this to yourself,
not when I can't help.
adept May 2018
i almost feel bad, then i remember you deserve it.
you deserve all the wrong that could be felt,
and everyone tells me to forgive, but how can i
when you gave me something i will never forget?

and even still no one understands.
even if they act like they do.

it was your actions that gave me trust issues
and because of that, the "i love you" that is
supposed to come from the heart, is all a lie.
not everything is as good as it seems
adept Oct 2019
ur making a mistake
but i’m gonna let u

ur taking me for granted

We met you again

And today you have helped
pull my family apart.

So good job,
I hope you're happy.

i’m just not cutting it anymore.
and you are lying straight to my face

adept Mar 2018
For I am absent mindlessly waiting for a beginning,
For an emancipation,
For an assisted dying statue,
For a cure,
For a salvation of the world,
For peace among the worlds indifference,
For some sort of distance.

And at the same time,
Waiting to stop running from myself.

adept Mar 2018
For one moment of my life
I want someone to care.
I want someone to look at me asking
'are you okay?' and really
want to know the true answer.

But people don't always get what they want,
life isn't fair?
Is that the excuse so you don't have to deal
with me?

Everyday is getting worse,
My head is in a dark place.
And no one wants to enlighten it.
