FIX YOUR THOUGHTS
Oh, why do you sing your heart out
To the daemons of the night?
Why do you press your lips to the mirror of time?
The spirit of evil isn’t worth the time
Isn’t worth the painful outcome,
So, why do you give your heart away?
to the enemy that gives bad dreams.
Each touch, or look of sorrow,
He weeps for your tomorrow,
Each word you say, he will write down in
Spells to trap you in,
His smile isn’t innocent,
He holds no affection for your soul
He uses words of lies to charms his way
Into a place, you crave,
Then when he finely gets you
He will soon quite you and neglect you;
Oh, can you see the darken swan swim?
Dark Angel trapped it upon scorn ponds,
Making everything beautiful to the swan’s eyes,
The hunger of sweet delights for a foolish swan
To swim its away into a darken state,
Oh, can you hear the rushing wind?
Singing out its painful cries of all time,
Beauty and lies are the trap of he
that gives darken dreams,
the words he says cut like a sharp knife
poison the blood that runs in vain,
Dark Angel, is something of hate
Loss of faith, words of worthless power.
Fads with time,
His words are like an ancient rhyme
That makes the soul cry;
The spirit weakens while the heart breaks,
Oh, look in the fading mirror
that shapes the face; that reflects lies,
into a world of darkness
that languish into the mind,
that dance into a place of anguish,
where tears will always fall,  
Clean up your ways, fix your every thought,
Because if you are weak in your faith;
Dark Angel will sweep you away
into a dark state of mind,
he will invade your life, he will cast you into
darken dreams that will make you scream.

What is love?
Such an overused word.
I'd never thought I'd feel it.
That idea was absurd.
And then I met you
I knew that one thing was plain.
That love isn't just one thing.
And it's a wonderful thing to have gained.
I thought it would be worthless.
Simply and utterly untrue.
But now I've found it in you, friend
I feel the joy when you do.
Of course it's not all perfect.
Like when I can feel your pain.
But to me, it's always worth it.
And I'll never be the same.
I was proved wrong about almost everything.
I am the girl who wakes up extra early to put on a face.
I put it on so good, No one would ever know the brokenness that I have to face.
Family never ask and friends can never tell
Only my pillow knows and is there to catch all of my tears.
Thank you to my pillow who knows my brokenness all to well.
I was sexually abused many of times to the point of hospitalization.
My family knew this family member who admitted to have harmed me, but gave me the
condemnation.
They gave me the evil looks, the you should have said something sooner speeches. The get over its
The it would be best if you would find somewhere else to live, oh and the oh your off our insurance too.
We dont care where you go... As long as we don't have to deal with you!
At church it began with the whispers, and then where I sat in a pew all alone as if I was the disease.
No knows how much I tried to hold my life together.
Only the Heavenly Father and my sore sore knees.
The family members who knew, never asked me
if I was okay, but they didn't know that I was contemplating taking my life every day.
From trying to  black out on alcohol and sleeping pills. Hoping I would wake up and this would all be a dream
To being successful with making that nuise out of my favorite blue bathrobe rope
My dad walked in EVERYTIME and gave me one more day to add to  my life which seemed like a treacherous timeline.
Was this God maybe, was he trying to save me and open up my eyes?
Some of them who knows that all this actually happened said it was for attention and I needed to just drop it, move on, let it go.
Well "you have become negative...maybe it is best if you go"
If I didn't feel like a slave in that house, I sure did now.
I feel like I literally did everything and there was still something my mom would bicker about.
I started noticing she would come up with basically anything to get my dad to kick me out.
I would drive to the park somedays and just sit in my car and cry.
I would drive down old back roads , and think would this world miss me when I die.
Family gatherings  where I once was welcome, I was no longer invited to
I spent thanksgiving all alone, just me and a box of tissues.
Friends invited me to their family events, but I was embarrassed.
I didn't want to intrude.
The friends who did know, I would call crying and they would not know what to say
For they have never felt this broken or had to feel this type of way.
I would sleep with a couch in front of my door and have an alarm set for 4 am
I could finally close my eyes and rest my tired head
4 am is when I felt like it was safe enough to close my eyes and be safe from my predator who crept in the night to finally go to bed
My friends said I was strong, but I really felt so weak.
I felt so gross, so worthless, so ashamed, and no one knew
After trying to recovery from my childhood, I will now have to recovery from this too.
I really would not be here today if it was not for the baby in my belly
And someone saying they would carry me the rest of the way.
these two are my world and the reason I get up every day.
So I am the girl who wakes up extra early to put on a face.
I put it on so well no one would know the brokenness that I have to face.
These events really took place. I write this for anyone this has ever happend too. Stay strong. Tell your story and keep finding a reason to live each and every day
Inspired by KR
Thank you!
You have taught me to stay strong, forgive,continue to love, and to find joy
Mia May 2013
You break my heart each day,
with a little silence and callous thoughts.
Do you think of me sometimes?
With a secret smile and warm heart.
Or do I sit by myself in solitude.
Wishing you will come tonight?

I lose my mind to you,
Moments i wish to have side by side with moments already shared.
I am helpless and alone.
Burning in agony of your absence.
I remain here lost,
Hoping you will be mine.
But it is a worthless thought,
someone that doesn't care for anything but himself won't love me
the way I need to be loved.
So I will lose my heart and happiness.
In loving you.
Carson Dees Jun 23
what is it like,
to have hope?
to be happy?
truly happy?
not just a smile,
i slap on my face?

what is it like,
to have lost hope?
to be sad?
truly sad?
because i know.
but it takes yourself
to realize
you are not alone.

you are not worthless.
Kassey Mar 2019
Show  you care and
leave me careless
Be my reason to breathe
But leave me breathless
Say I'm worth it
But you make me feel worthless

Lock you in a room all alone
Make you feel what I feel at home
Do what you do to me.
Now I'm strong
Strong enough to do what I want

And I wrap it all around
Wrap it all around so tight
You're screaming for help
But I become deaf
Remember you also did that?

Now the blood is all around us
I do all to stop the bleeding
But I can't do anything
To stop you leaving

Like when you're still alive
I heal all your scars
And I can't stop you leaving
You left me unloved

Now you're breathless.
I am careless.
You're worthless.
I just finished my revenge
Alex Vellis Nov 2019
We, heavy and sullen men;
on bent legs that  
learned to hold up the weight of our fathers
but could never hold up our mothers
in the way they deserved to be.

We, throwbacks to our youths;
that grew up and down
in cities with single streetlamps;
burned out bedroom windows
that tell you at least there was warmth here once.

you are worth less
than worthless
that is what our birth certificates read,
that is what we have been told
for our whole lives
worth less than worthless.

We, Sisyphean modes;
our backs burdened
by our father’s footsteps
‘please don’t let me turn into him’

I say this to you
over coffee
you tell me we all look the same
I say I have to leave,
you understand why.

Before I go
you tell me
to let my old self die
and become a new God.

I have traced myself back
to Carthage,
to Canaan,
to Athens.
I have traced myself back
to Olympus,
stood at the foot of a mountain
challenged the Gods to a fist fight

Much like my father,
they would never answer me.

In the small hours,
where the night hangs the day
and birds are a collection
of off notes,
where the workman dresses
his bathroom in white foam
and says
‘today is the last day I will do this’
on repeat like clockwork,
every. single. day

In the spent moments
between tying shoelaces
and wrapping fingers
around steering wheels
or clutching wallets
that march down to bus stops
to take stabs at photocopiers
or sit in coffee shops
or buy and measure rope
in full bodied lengths.

That is where we know loneliness
and futility
and a singular quiet death
that cannot come soon enough.

I see myself in his image;
a martyr with nothing to live for
but less to make my death
a worthwhile venture.
It is here
in the two am phone calls
to the Samaritans,
and the silent sobbing
about being alone
in the violet scars,
that trace my legs
like track marks
that I realise I am nothing like him…
Perhaps that is my downfall.

We, heavy and sullen men,
building foundations out of our ribs,
breaking down for not breaking down
soon enough-
wiring and rewiring and rewiring and…
there is not enough time in the day.

‘You are not enough’
they say.
And it sticks with you;
papier-mâché angles
that arch and tear
and fold and break
and break and break
and you must act strong,
everyone is counting on you,
you must act strong.

there is a finality in strength;
a fraught knot
used for hanging light fixtures
or bodies,
we can never unwind
we can never unwind
we can never unwind.

And Atlas will hold the world
as punishment,
until the world will pull him down.
We see this as a crime,
he is just pleased to still be here.
This old dog’s legs will give way
and we will wait
till the stars fall.

I am of lost co-ordinates  
and I can’t see myself as anything more than a map.
They say if you dig down far enough,
there is treasure,
I think I have been stripped away.

The next great exodus
will see me home
and for the first time,
in a long time,
I might be happy
but happiness is
a collection of memories
of you telling me you loved me,
even when it was difficult to do so.

I would live and die for you
even though you would never ask me to,
I am about ready to go.
Ain May 2022
It’s seldom, that in such a far away land, we find;
Someone so generous, caring, considerate and kind;

It’s just once in a while we come to know,
To be of service to others- a person who’s taken such a vow;

Who’s wandered not from place to place
For better world and life to grace

Who’s forever taken what came in
Without contempt or complaint and with just a grin

Who firmly believes in lending a hand
And give support to those leaning to stand

Who’s sweetened the lives of those he knew
Sure such people exist rare and few

Who’s made it a part of his personality
To serve the cause of all humanity

What must’ve inspired God to make
Just a pretty heart just for his sake

He’s a man so soft hearted and selfless
For him wordly matters are just worthless

Anything in return he wants not
Just content with the happiness got

He’s filled with love and compassion for all
His greatness makes us all so small

Who’s always spread happiness from the start
No doubt it’s difficult for us to depart

I pray, the way he’s been to all
May life’s same blessings on him befall..!!

~Noorulain Sulemani
This one goes in honor of a special person on his farewell from Dubai after his service and stay of 22 years…
A god I have never known
Would have warned me of how easily
Everything can come to mean
Absolutely nothing.
But he never did and I’m not kidding
Or running
Over my sense of being
Worthless, this nonsense
This hurt this chaos is it worth it?
I insist it is for no good reason
Everyone says I need something
To believe in
I wonder how they would be
If they knew I believed in them.
Domagoj Aug 2018
Stay with me my friend,
I have nowhere to go.
My paths are broken and unknown.
Just like me,
everything is worthless.
I will talk to you,
with soft and nihilistic voice.
You can hear the screams,
coming from inside me.
Don't worry about them.
They are not to be listened.

Help me my friend!
My hands want to hurt me.
Mind is ruptured by despair,
creating black hole of solitude,
where my whole being fade.
My vision is discolored by darkness.
It won't let me see how I decay.
God forgive me,
but I can't forgive myself.
Grief is within in my existence.
By my hand, my name shall be eradicated..
Fox Härtlis Nov 2014
You told me that you were going to make this a great year.
I've never heard a bigger lie.
Everything has been falling apart
and you blame me for it.
You have sat there and insulted me,
telling me I never do enough,
I don't think,
you don't trust me.
I am your worthless mistake.
I've failed at  everything.
I tell you that I'm doing my best.
I am only human.
"Stop giving excuses. You have a reason for everything."
Shouldn't I have a reason?
Should I do things just because?
Is that what you want?
I am doing what I can.
I want to just whither away and die.
It would be less painful than this.
To have my very being attacked.
I should follow your example?
When you can't even talk to me without vulgarity?
I think not.
All this happens, and you still wonder why I keep it inside myself?
It shouldn't be a surprise.
I can't talk to you about anything.
Why can't you just leave me alone?
Solitude is preferable over this pain
kate Jan 2015
you stomped your way into my life with no ******* warning and no ******* invitation but i accepted it didn't i
you tore up my life two years ago as someone who loved me but i dealt with the guilt of not loving you back didn't i
you disappeared and i was fine and i accepted it didn't i
but you returned stealthily like a python in the long grasses and although you didn't have any poisonous fangs, i didn't realize you'd slowly squeeze me to death
you squeezed my chest with the panic of talking to you
you squeezed my thoughts as they became so overwhelmed with you and everything you made me feel you MADE me feel them and i didn't want to but then again maybe i liked the pain
but then you left again leaving me slack and gasping for breath and shaking worse than an 8.0 magnitude and i was trying to learn to breathe on my own again
i got used to the quiet your absence brought, or maybe i didn't and i secretly yearned for you again because you made me feel things no one else had me feel before
and your constant appearing and disappearing act left me the poor frustrated feline in the game of cat and mouse
and i said i was over you but was i really? was i REALLY?

no.
i wasn't.

you were (almost) everything i wanted and i wasn't sure if i was satisfied or if i ever would be if i was truly with you.
and you played games, you treated me specially, or so i thought
you didn't really you treated other girls better than me with personality
though around me you deadened yours and attempted to stomp out mine and make me feel worthless and an annoyance similar to one of a gnat.
and then you became more appealing to me (at least physically, i'm sorry i was so shallow) and i missed the smiles your talking brought me and i wished that i could hear that voice with my own ears because god i didn't even know what it sounded like.

but then, at one point, i was yours.
and you were mine,
or at least i thought.

i squared my shoulders and screamed to myself, "don't be afraid anymore."

don't be afraid anymore.

i was afraid, but when i fell into your comforting arms, i felt at peace
i felt like nothing bad could ever happen again as long as you shielded me from the blades being tossed about haphazardly
i was so foolishly happy that i was blinded by the bitter workings of life
and the thought that nothing good lasts forever.
and it doesn't last forever. it gets bad. it gets frightening.

it gets deadly.

you said you couldn't handle so many commitments, but i didn't want to be just another obligation of yours and you HURT me and you LIED to me and you hid the truth from me
you said we couldn't be together any longer but we could still be friends
but friends don't ignore each other through the thorns of breakups, even if you were the one that committed the breaking, wielding your double edged blade which you wedged so deeply into my chest
you destroyed me

destroyed me

i felt like nothing would ever be good again not unless i had lungs full of smoke and a throat burning with ***** and bruises blossoming under my knuckles from when i punished the walls of my room and i was slipping over the endless tears that fell from my harsh eyes

but now, things are okay
i've finally moved onward sailing my ship and i'm happier with someone who treats me like a person, an actual person, and he made everything all right when my boat hit rough waters and typhoons
and even though you ****** me up, i have no regrets because you, you taught me to take chances and stop being afraid.
and for that, i thank you.

other than that, you can go **** yourself.
closure over an ex who really ****** me up, should've posted this a while ago but whatever this is really long and dumb and specific but yeah whatever
Jan Harak Jul 2015
The painful truth that serves you well
all the rules that breaks your will
and make you the servant
of long dead men

Someone smiles and wished you well
but in the end they all pretend
compassion is inhumane crime
Masters tell what's worth your time

They sent letters green and white
the more you have the more they got
the less you have the lesser man
these worthless creatures they can't stand

Worship your masters and things they gave
pursuit those letters night and day
they are the things that make life fair
they are the things that make you man
Ana S May 2016
I watch her in the corner of my eyes
Often looks can lie
She is beautiful in so many ways
I could get high off her looks for days
She has blondish hair
Looks around the room without a care
I know people stare
They watch me to
There disgusted by what they think I do
They are not right
No conclusions should be drawn from sight
She has short hair
A look of dare
A face that says everything
Her voice is beautiful and rings
She stays there like a stone
Beautiful and alone
I yearn to speak to her
But I don't have the nerve
It's not a good time, nor place
But yet again I look at her face
I would never know what she was like
Again I am just a ****
A crushing hard ******
Nobody ever knows
They are all fantasy
Never reality
I've always made things bad
Made my girl sad
I am done trying
Never knowing what these girls keep seeing
I'm a moody *****
Half the time I want to go die in a ditch
I take pills every night
Drink until I see the morning light
What do they see
All I see is worthless me
Never meant much
My ex said don't talk such
She said I cause the pain
I say I'm just on the verge of going insane
And anyways half the girls I have liked have been straight
In the end I found it to be great
At that I roll my eyes
Every time a bit of me dies
An I love you
Then a babe do you know what I do
The sad truth
It still kills me
And makes me be
The ***** who's moody
Who nobody really sees
I cry at night
Am growing less acquainted with the light.
I am going back to dangerous ways
Cutting my wrists with a blade
Today it bleed all morning
That was fun to hide.
I went in the bathroom to wash it
Watched a girl stare horrified and just shrugged.
Nothing left to loose.
I don't really have anyone except maybe Em and a few others.
Gosh if she knew how much she helps.
I feel like I don't show her enough.
Enough emotion and change.
I know I hurt her.
If she ever reads this I want her to know that no I am not okay.
Yes I look up to you everyday.
You made me out down the knife.
You saved my life.
Multiple times you've showed me light.
You've talked me out of suicide late at night.
That means so much you don't have a clue,
Emily just how much I love you.
To a friend I live dearly

My heart feels broken into a million pieces...
did you think about that Daddy before you stole my innocence.. Did you think about how this would affect me? Did you even care? How could you... how could you do this to me. Did I not matter? Did you think I just wouldn't remember. What if I didn't remember. Wouldn't you remember..? Wouldn't that break your own heart. It should. I was your little girl. You should of loved me, protected me, showed me my worth. Not hurt me & leave me with forever scars in my soul. My soul is bleeding... I bandaged up my wounds for as long as I could. Now I have to face it. My pain, my sadness, my anger. You made me fear trusting anyone & everyone. You betrayed my trust. You violated me. Was I not enough to spare such humiliation? What did I ever do to you. I was 5. You should of been my protector not my intruder. I feel sadness for you.  Because you must not have peace within your own soul after doing that. Guess what Daddy.. I do matter. I will rise above this. I hope you know you broke my heart forever... I Pray God forgives you. I'm working on forgiving you. Through this pain I will find my strength. I don't want to make the world darker to anyone like you did to me... I want to shine light into everyone's darkness. Humans matter. I matter. I deserve peace & I'm going to find it. You poured lies into my heart that I was worthless and only worthy for my body. I'm much more than that. I matter. I ******* matter & I will rise above this ❤️️
J Nov 2021
people act like it's something to romanticize, yknow, being this way. "oh I'm sad" and then everyone suddenly cares, that's what people expect to happen, but see, the sad truth is "oh I'm sad" is usually returned with "well, just stop being sad," or "yeah, me too," or "why? nothing's even happening to you." see that's the ******' thing about depression. even if your day is wonderful, even if you spend the day laughing, when you're alone, or even right in the middle of laughing, you'll be nothing. or at least that's how it is for me. you know I try, I really do, I try for meds, and even with them, it feels like nothing is really working. I'll try with these ******* stupid *** techniques I'll find online, I'll try to get my **** together. and for a time, yknow, for a little bit it seems to actually work. but then the smallest thing goes wrong and I'm back in my hole of self-loathing. maybe death isn't the answer, but life doesn't seem to be it either. I'm constantly manic these days, but all that I can do is sit here and go off inside myself like a ticking bomb until I explode, tear myself open, and start all over again. i. feel. worthless. like I'm nothing, nothing but some spec on the infinite cosmos. and that doesn't bother me much, you know, thinking about how small I am compared to literally everything else.  I know how small I am, I'm finally okay with that, but feeling like this black hole? this is different. because not only am I small, I'm entirely forgotten. but it's not like there's much to remember about me, right?
J.
J was.. J was something, weren't they? If they weren't joking about everything, they were overthinking everything. Sure, J was sweet, but was J really anything we can remember? Do you remember much about J? Cause I sure don't. Let's see. J. J Novella Scott. 5'1, 135 pounds of pure mania and psychotic tendencies. 18 years old when they died, lost themselves to the battle with suicide, found with their blood seeping out of slits they made with the razorblades, aka their lovers. messy dark brown hair on top of hazel eyes, freckles in all the wrong places, eyes unmatched in symmetry. J was abnormally dull.
J.
J loved poetry, witchcraft, and art of all sorts, but they also had a crippling dependency on attention. Regardless of who it was from, they wanted it. A guy with an interest in ******* them, perfect, that's everything they could have wanted, forget anyone that only wanted to hold them in their arms and tell J that they were something incredible, **** all the past boyfriends and girlfriends that wanted J to see how great they were to them, oh yes, **** those that showed some ounce of humanity, because the truth is J just wanted to be used. They've been used all their life, this shouldn't have been anything new. To quote J, "we accept the love we think we deserve." Too bad J only accepted trash men who think with their second head. See, J, they were crazy. Not the crazy that would push a pillow to your face when you were sleeping, or at least they hadn't actually done it, just thought about it, no, J was the type of crazy to meet someone, read that person, discover what they truly wanted, and then J gave it to them. Wanted a **** for a pet? J was your them. Wanted someone to bash in and destroy mentally, J spreaded their metaphoric brain legs, and allowed the headfuck to begin. J was what we call a mirrorer, they can turn into whoever you want them to be just by reading you for mere seconds. They might not have acted like it, but they had a head on their shoulders, it just wasn't used properly.
J.
J was something new, yet not something good enough to be called special. They did normal things, and they did the abnormal. one of their favorite past times was rolling up their sleeves and carving the person who they loved the most's name in their arm. See, J got attached way too easily, and that was one of their many many many many flaws. And when they got attached, it wasn't for a month or a year, that sort of thing was eternal, whether they wanted it to be or not. J wasn't a great person, but they tried to be.
J.
J was nothing to muse at. their features weren't something to be described in a great love novel, they were basic in everything on the outside, and on the inside J was nothing but someone to be afraid of and afraid for. J would say they deserved this sort of death, something by their own hands. J wanted to go for years, and the thing is I'd bet they were just too much of a ***** to do it sooner. Maybe they were waiting for someone to come around and make them second guess it, or maybe they just wanted to be a thorn in the foot of the world for as long as they could. Whatever kept them here, it kept them for too long. See, J, as I've said before, wasn't very special, but somehow they did enough right in the world to make people actually like them, maybe even care for them, despite what J thinks. so in conclusion, J was ******, and J ruined everything they got involved with, may they rest knowing that in the end, they were right about everything that included themself.   J was something weren't they? Or maybe, know, the truth is, they weren't really anything.
J.
J?
J, they were nothing. and the world moves on.

We've armed God to the teeth
Ready to **** indiscreetly
Through his
Favorite little sheep
We rabble babble on
Never forget
The power of
The tower
The Babylon of freedom's
Worthless lie
The ignorant that curse
This land
The first to fight
The last to think
This worldwide
Disease of thoughtless homicide
No peace
        No not on your TV
No
Not on your flat screen
HD **** machines
I scroll habitually
Programmed emotionally
Can't stop reacting
Stroking that enormous
Ego
Blood flows wherever we go
Spreading that capital
Anywhere habitable
Masters of our own destruction
Racing to the end without reluctance
Darkness with her companion love -
mix touch and memory with mystery
and *******
A Gibbous Moon tucked away in the cloudy
twilight , a flashlight sending Morse code
on a foggy night
Fidelity chartered vessels sailing the ambiguous shallow peril
Soldiers bargaining their mortality in the heat
of battle
Clarity bound in fetters of memory and worthless prattle

essentially,
each day I learn
new and interesting
ways that I am
completely worthless
and
unnecessary

whether it be complaints about
my speech,
or my attitude,
or my
personality,
all I keep hearing
every day
and
every
night

despite my small victory,
in getting the part I wanted
in the play,
my life has quickly
and steadily spiraled
downward
each time I check
back in

I want succeed
to stop all this
but I have arrived
at the conclusion
that it’s me
not someone
else

me,
good ole
caleb,
is the
problem

and I know I can’t change
enough to fix all these
problems
so I sit in bed,
starring at the
stars,
wondering how,
I got here,
why I was born
like this,
and who decided
I deserved this
or something along
those lines
Tommy Johnson Mar 2014
Unbeknownst to him
Knowing me is a sin
And I already have my grip

He doesn’t know the cost
He doesn’t own a cross
And hasn’t learned his sacraments

To his family this is tragic
His soul belongs to me
My unholy black magic
He is mine forever more
He is mine forever more

Signed, a loophole-less deal
A contract written in blood
Our fiendish accord
A binding agreement
The demonic covenant
An exchange of a worthless desire for an invaluable spirit

No angelic lawyer can save him
He is ****** for eternity
Put up a for sale sign on a whim
He is mine forever more
He is mine forever more

Scheduled to be defiled
Tortured endlessly
And be thrown into a lake a fire
He is mine forever more
He is mine forever more

He is mine forever more

Color me in the right shade of hate
fill in the vacant holes in my heart with pounds of abuse
starve me from my right to eat because my weight is normal
(and normal isn't nearly as depressing as anorexic)
paint me perfect and leave me looking
devastated and depressed
cracked and traumatized
leave me wanting to **** myself because
suicide is trending right now and the more alone you feel
the more popular you’ll become

leave me looking mysterious so that my prince charming
can look for the girl with the broken smile and then
fix me
break me so I can be perfect
leave me feeling worthless because hating yourself is cool
teach me how to cut my skin because
scars are proof that you’re broken
and the more broken you are the more whole they want to make you

paint me perfect
by tearing me apart
after all,
*why would you want to be happy?
I have mixed emotions about this...
Amanda Kay Burke Nov 2024
Pain within my every word
Mental instability
Never very kind or patient
Definitely not conducive to tranquility

Oh to be free all I long for
World exterminated of hate
Something I've dreamt about often
Life has refused to cooperate

Relaxation an overstayed houseguest
Won't take my subtle hints to leave
Some think I enjoy lazy demeanor
Desperately wish goals I could acheive

I'm not worthless degenerate
Just process events differently than most
A am a lost soul fighting depression
Inside haunted by a nameless ghost

With zero way to discover a road to bliss
Words I scribble my comfort when dark
Everything is a fleeting experience
Perception altered by every harmful remark

Is swallowing truth so hard
That it sticks in back of my throat?
If it is I'll forcefully choke it down
Weight why it's difficult to float
I got hit with writer's block so that's why the ending is somewhat abrupt
O the streams of joy flow on Earth!
O day and night
So much amrita rasa(heavenly ambrosia)
Brims out in the endless sky!
O drink do the Sun
And moon
Holding anjali in their hands!
O perpetually is lit
The permanent flame!
O always is the Earth
Filled with life and rays
Of light!
Why are you sitting
So lost in your mind?
O why are you just
Running after
Material ,self
'Pleasures'?
O see in the four directions
Opening thy eyes!
Expanding your heart!
O the petty sorrows
Realizing them worthless!
O fill thy heart and soul
With but only love
In this empty life
That you've got!
Written by a maestro and life changing one who understood himself very well!

Change... is inevitable no matter where you stand in your life time,
Change is a scary thing and you feel frozen in time like nothing is possible like a tiny grandfather clock in a small town,
You feel invisible no matter what you do,
Everyone experiences the clock and eventually talks behind its back so much that eventually she becomes worn down,
She craves a new beginning,
Afraid of moving on since the clock is afraid of changing her perspective she is stuck in that one time frame,
Gradually she stops caring about herself, her family, friends, teachers and all the other clocks around her,
She wants to run away,
She wants to put an end to her life as she feels like a worthless ticking time bomb,
She decides to run away to a new city disregarding the change and what may come with it,
The clocks in that city all have their differences,
They show love and affection to the grandfather clock
She does not feel desperate anymore to feel loved,
She finds love within strangers in her new community,
Her true colors are no need to hide behind the scared feelings to be her true self,
Before she put a mask on everyday that she was in a living hell and had to fake happy feelings,
After being in her new community it was no longer a place she dreaded to go rather a place she longed to go everyday and was completely herself no matter what others talked about her,
She knew that their opinions no longer matter,
She began to love herself and rather than cry her self to sleep each night
She began laughing herself to bed and dreaming instead of having nightmares of what the next day would be like,
The Grandfather clock began to feel authentic and became worth it to herself

-E.J.W
Change from a small community to a big community can make all the difference
the grand father clock is a metaphor i really am speaking of myself

Go on and starve yourself if you think you're fat

(even though you're already a toothpick)

I've tried your methods to have a flat stomach.

(It didn't work)

If I'm going to starve myself and feel depressed

(feeling worthless and never good enough)

to get a flat stomach, to hell with that.

I'd rather be fat and with a smile
Ben Johnson Jan 2019
Pimps and ******
Missiles and guns
Death the score
Sacrifice for fun

Dollars for dancing
Paradise for blood
Money men prancing
Preaching the flood  

Jesus the Christ
Bringing the end
Mohammed given the keys
To Syria, Persia, & Yemen

Religion’s a bubble
Waiting to bust
Propped up by the gullible
Distracted by lust

The Gods are worthless
You better short the dollar
The faithful and faithless
All living in squalor

Mammon, a prince of hell
That’s who we worship
Ring the bell
Ready the warship!

I'm still listening.
The voices are
Telling me things.
my voice screams at them and
Trys to reason with them.
she should be dead
i should live, shouldn't I?
youre ugly, fat, and a ***, you're a disgrace to mankind
but I could help
youre worthless
I'm not sure who to believe,
They run back and forth and
I'm very confused.
I don't know what to do.
Eh, thoughts.
MyReality May 2018
All this is is another line,
All I have is another fine.
I don’t want this, not anymore,
My mind is tired my body sore.
all alone in bed I'll lay.
So  I don’t want my fate today,
It has dealt me a bad hand,
It has screamed to me I cant.
I can't exist and I won't live here,
I will need pills, **** and beer.
I will have the need to this sedation,
for I am gods worthless creation.

— The End —
