Silent.

Maybe you are broken too
Maybe you aren't okay
But hey, as long as we were together
I knew everything was going to be alright
Now you are gone, and others came alone
And I just sit here, and sing a bad song

I can be quiet, while I scream from inside
So run away *****, you have no where to hide

Uninspiring

I guess I'm just not the kind of girl you write poems about.
I'm the girl you can only come up with one line about.
And a depressing one at that.

I can write poems in one sitting.
But when you sit down to write a poem about me.
Words just don't come to mind.
So you take months to write it.
And you don't finish.

I guess I don't inspire enough feeling.
I don't fill people with passion.
I don't see why I would.

I'll just have to keep writing my own poems.

I did not know winter could affect me like this

I did not know winter could affect me like this

I am trying to love myself
oh god, I am trying
but the stars are too far
for me to find comfort in
and the ocean
the ocean that is my blanket
lies miles from this bed
this bed where I cried until slumber
took me into nightmares
where the ice cracked underfoot
and I plunged into a lake
of self-loathing
I drowned in that cold world
And awoke with frostbite on my heart

How sad it is
to see the sun
but not feel it

I am trying to find warmth
in myself
but find only ice
and a terrible, tragic
cold.

dehydrated

I poured every ounce of myself
Into oceans and bath water
And blood and sweat and tears
At the end of all of this
I am finally empty.

Imprints

Your weight left an imprint on the couch
And it haunts the high ceilings
Now it's fading slowly like a feather bouncing back
Because you are no longer there to renew the stamp
And so it will fade, until it is but a ghostly memory

Just a little something written in a few minutes..
