Fear
Théa Mar 2021
People are scared of things

One is the
d

r
k

I used to be afraid of the dark- so I got a nightlight
And yet that didn't help
I started sleeping with the blinds open AND the nightlight
Still- I was afraid
So I started sleeping with all the lights on
And I wasn't sleeping

I'm not afraid of the dark surrounding me
Enveloping me
That darkness- its a hug

This darkness- its the darkness inside of me
I'm scared of the darkness inside of me...

Love

Love...
Something to torture you
Bringing you to your knees
The pain is addicting

Strong
Théa Mar 2021
I want to cry
I want to scream
I want to cave in
I want to give up
I want to stay home
I want to do so many things...
But I don't
I keep my head up
I keep going
I keep living
I keep telling myself
"I will survive"
I will be strong

You
Théa Mar 2021
You
You with your sweet talk
You with your stupid smile
You with your hugs when I needed them
You with your net of words, ensnaring me
You...

Living death
Théa Mar 2021
Watching you walk away from me-
Shaking and collapsing-
Begging you to come back-
This is death- this is killing me

Invisible

Not noticed
Walked by
Ignored
Unseen
Left alone

You told me...
Théa Mar 2021
You told me that you loved me
You told me that I was loved
You told me that you would always be there
You told me I was beautiful
You told me I was strong
You told me that you were mine
Now...
I'm alone
I'm abandoned
I'm lonely
I'm staring into the mirror with tears streaming down my face
I'm begging myself to hold on
I'm watching you living the life with everyone else

I'll be okay
Théa Mar 2021
You said you loved me- then left- and now I'm staring blankly ahead- going through the basic motions of life- what used to be exploding with color now is grey… I'll be okay… you were mine to adore and I was yours to leave…

I know it’ll never happen
But don’t blame me for telling you this
You’re the one
Who makes me feel wanted
Who makes me feel valued
Who makes me feel this way that is impossible to explain
I know it's silly
And I hate myself for this
And I know it's gonna ruin whatever friendship we had
But I have been honest with you the whole time and I intend to keep being honest
I know i'm not your type
I know this seems stupid
But I may somewhat like you
And I tried to make it go away
Truth to be told, I’ve been in pain most of my life
Ready to leave life behind
And then you came along
Gave me a reason to stay strong
And I know its ****** and ****** of me to tell you this
It’s selfish and insensitive
But I like you a lot

Darkness
Théa Feb 2021
As the rain falls on my head,
making my hair stick to my face
in long wet strands,
I feel like the world is falling on me.
The constant pounding and unforgiving weather.
The grey stormy sky.
All of this was nothing compared to the darkness inside of me.

— The End —
