What does it mean to be human?
Does it mean that your body is flesh and bone?
My body is made of plastic.
What are you made of?
What makes a person whole?
Is it fulfillment? Happiness? Soul?
Whatever the case, I am not whole.
Are you?
Are humans intelligent or ignorant?
I am both.
Which one are you?
Are humans kind or wicked?
I do not know which one I am.
Do you know?
Do humans get to choose who they are?
I have tried to mould myself as best I can, into the person I want to be
Have you?
Are you human?
I am, decidedly, not human.
I am that which I do not know of
I am that which I do not wish to discover
I hope never to know who I am.
Who are you?
Uhhh **** my man

People leave
like trees in the breeze
like the heaviness
on my knees
when I first saw you breathe
but it’s my fault
in the first place
I never say
what I should say
but maybe they’d stay
if one day
I could say
what I really want to say

What if I told you I hold demons inside?

What if I told you about the tears I hide?

What if I told you about every time I lied?

What if I told you my dreams of suicide?

What if I told you I wear a mask on the outside?

What if I told you in myself I confide?

What if I told you about all the times of happiness I was denied?

Putting on a mask.
Building a barrier.
Stuck inside the mind.
Fake on the outside.
Screams silenced.
Thoughts divided.
Wanting out.
Never to be freed.
Sly Nov 2018
Never fit in.
Never stood out.
Thoughts twisted around.
Empty gaze.
Lost in this maze.
To this darkness I am bound.
Deep cuts.
Deeper scars.
Bleeding on the ground.
Sly Nov 2018
I feel a need to ****.
Both myself and anyone near me.
I've thought of ways to end my life.
I've methodically found ways to end the others.
So tell me am I suicidal or a ******?
