“i can write it better than you ever felt it” - p.w. ——i luv my bf <3

1 min read
I use sleep to escape,
The dreadful feeling of being alive,
But my head seems to mixtape,
The bad memories I’ve had to survive.
One night it’s bliss,
The other I wish I was dead.
However, It’s hard to miss,
This disgusting feeling in my head.
When I’m awake I feel the same,
I want to just forget,
But It’s really just a shame,
To be trapped in this mindset.
In REM I lay,
Wishing for the day,
Bu...
Poetry
Am I contagious?
They seem to avoid me like a virus,
And look at me like I’m outrageous,
With a bitter sense of highness.
Before you touch me,
You need to scrub in,
Use the soap and count to three,
And treat me like I’m vermin.
I’m just a nasty disease,
With no one to look after,
No room for worries,
When I’m preparing for the rapture.
My whole life I’ve been told,
“You better stay away”,
I...
As I walk
My shadow lingers
My presence stalks
With morbid fingers
I’m not to be seen
Even for a minute or two
They do call me the queen
Of being see-through
It’s not my fault they don’t see me
I’m just glad they don’t stare
They treat me so differently
When they don’t know I’m there...
Since I was six,
I’ve had my fix,
Of Jesus Christ,
And all things nice,
Alongside the hanging crucifix.
Church beat it into my head,
“It’s a sin to wish you were dead”,
“Your mother is going to hell,
As the Bible has to foretell.”
As rapists are accepted into heaven,
Because they love the lord,
The hypocrisy feels like a weapon,
And my real emotions poured.
It is not a sin to love who you lov...
My sense of dread hits me harder than the sense of regret
Which is funny, due to the fact that regret is what got me in this. Better yet,
The thought of death alone keeps me comforted, a string of sensitivity and unknowing but knowing the eternity of darkness that surrounds me.
It bombards me. Keeps me company in my sense of self in my heart strings.
Unknowing yet unseeing,
The prophecy is bein...
I can’t get over the late night matches
Or the empty pill bottles
The memories began the scratches
And the happiness became fossils
I tried to forgive
Maybe even forget
But I keep this authoritative
Sense of regret
I could have stopped you
From downing those whites
But what we all knew
You were infested with frights
To Alabama they sent my savior
For rehab and such
“That’s not normal behav...
They May Not Know Now, But it’s Going to Happen
I’m just a wishing well
They hope i’m okay
But at the end of the day
I’m under a spell
“You’re in my thoughts
Prayers too”
Give me a shot
One I haven’t blew
I fucked this all up
Self sabotage
Please camouflage
All my scars...
While we stand here,
Close and wet,
I sense something else is near,
The scent of regret.
I knew I shouldn’t have killed her,
And I’m sorry to say,
You might not concure,
But she’s out of the gray.
She won’t hurt anymore,
She’ll be blissfully glee,
Though it’s hard to ignore,
She’s not completely free.
So, instead of saying sorry,
I’ll take you too,
Under this umbrella,
No one will have a clue....
Thriller
I know today is the day,
And the anxiety follows,
I’m about to say,
The words that I can’t swallow.
I walk down the aisle,
Flowers in hand,
I stare at him for awhile,
I can barely stand.
The time has come,
To shed my last name,
God, he’s handsome,
As hot as a flame.
‘I love you Chase’,
I express in tears,
He kisses me with grace,
And melts away my fears....
Romance
There’s things I didn’t realize,
Things I didn’t see,
I should have opened my eyes,
And shifted the blame on me.
I know I did you wrong,
It hurts to say,
I’ve loved you for so long,
It won’t stop today.
I’ll try to be nice,
To be your good girl,
You have no price,
You’re pretty as a pearl.
I’m sorry I hurt you,
I see that now,
You’re my favorite view,
To you I’ll vow....
