We are made for the light
But can adapt to darkness
Becoming dull and numb
The light now to bright
Till our eyes readjust
And we remember where we belong...
Poetry
…
There’s no one left to fight
Everyone is back to nice
No reson to be upset at them
The people who where mean
Making my life a mess
They got in trouble
Now they’ve changed
My friends are doing fine
I want to make them happy
Give them gifts that mean something
My favorite neckless
Or a family heirloom
Everything I can for helping me
A thank you for being there
I need to tell my family I lo...
It’s all to much
People around
Being loud
Really living
Yet I’m not like them
I don’t fit in
All alone
I give up
I don’t care anymore
I want to fall
To sink into nothing
Others have it bad
Probably even worse
I’m just weak
I don’t try to fight
And I don’t have a reason why
My life is good
I’m insanely lucky
I shouldn’t feel like this
But I do
I can’t take the pain
The numbness
The st...
The wind blows my hair
I’m on the edge again
Looking down below
The water swirling
The night cold
I’m sitting there
Like I have before
But today is my limit
I stand and turn around
But I’m not going to leave
Walking beckwards
Till my heel hang off
Then I let go
Falling backwards
The descent feels slow
My mind numbing
Thoughts ceasing
Finally a thud
And I sink below...
In my room
A normal day
Nothing strange
That’s what it seems
But I know differently
Today is special
Because there won’t be another
I’ve tried so hard
Never enough
Count the pills
Once, twice
One goes down
Than another
Ten to take
And when there gone
Ten more for luck
Laying in bed
As they take effect
Tomorrow fading
Today my last...
Sitting in the silence
Darkness all around
Thoughts racing fast
Thinking of the day
Every little detail
What did I do wrong
Way to many things
The list keeps going on
Faster and faster
Each one is a cut
Both with the blade
And in my mind
Mark after mark
The blood begins to pour
Useless, I’m useless
A waste of space
When the reflection’s done
My arm is red
I bandage it quickly
Till tomo...
When things go wrong
Especially as a child
The effects last awhile
I still remember that day
It’s not as clear now
But it will never go away
Dad was upset about somthing
Mom was taking to him
Eventually a police officer arrived
Just one to talk
Dad went away for a little
Mom made us kids talk to people
Therapists or somthing
They came to school
Pulled us out of class individually
Only ...
I forget so many things
What my favorites are
How to do things for me
What being seen feels like
How to brake and cry
What it’s like to be heard
How to ask for help
So I cut myself sometimes
Snap at people for small things
Stay by myself all the time
Feel like I’m not even there
Escape to my daydreams
Hope it will get better
That I can find all I’ve lost...
The most beautiful things have thorns
A sweet rose can couse deep pain
Families can wear and fray with age
Friends can be toxic and harmful to you
Even in hope there’s despair somewhere
Life can be hard and you can be hurt
Your own mind can trap and lie
Your hands can find a blade to cope
A bottle or two of pills or booze
But thorns can be removed with work
Even if they come back some ...
I’ll the favorite child
Always staying in line
The only one home
My brother left
Mother isn’t satisfied
She curses me more
Her anger growing
She hurts and hurts
Controls my choices
My brother hates me
I’m to much like her
He doesn’t listen or care
I told him I was going
He didn’t hear
I know I’ll die
But I have to try
Try to be more than Mother
More than the perfect child
I have to take t...
