I did it again

Please don’t be mad

It’s just small scrapes

Little wounds

I promise I’m fine

Don’t worry

I wouldn’t do it again

I’ll make you proud

Till the next time I’ll say

I did it again...

she can’t breathe.

the walls are closing in on her,

the space growing tighter,

and tighter

and tighter.

tick tock.

tick tock.

she looks up,

the subtle sound of clockworks

momentarily drawing her attention away

from her entrapment.

the clock reads:

0.54AM.

she looks away,

her eyes fixing on the door.

she tries the handle:

push,

it refuses;

pull,

it refuses.

push again,

pull again,

again,

The sewage-brown bottles sat on the coffee table and floor,

Some lying sideways, dripping a golden yellow substance, some standing upright,

Surrounding him in a taunting way,

Reminding him of who he’s become again.

His body has slumped on the worn, stained couch too many times,

Intoxicated, impaired as the tv quietly plays,

Barely able to understand what’s going on,

As he’s on the brink of losi...

Darkness was once light

Day was once night

Dim was once bright

Life was once death

the opposite one in the same

Death was once life too

Enemies were once friends

Strangers were once lovers

You were once my everything

Adults were once kids

Memories were once alive

Love was once easy

Time falls too fast

Moves quickening

in a sickening manner

Once was once was once

Everything is a never endin...

“Hey, can we talk?”

I could save myself with those four words.

Maybe, if I’m not too far gone already.

I’m lonely to the point of pain,

Bored out of my mind.

I just want to talk to somebody, anybody.

I want to talk about something, anything.

I don’t care who it is, I don’t care what we say.

I just need to hear someone’s voice,

Or even the three dots that mean somebody’s bothered to notice I exis...

TW mental health

(Im okay)

I just woke up and I’m feeling numb,

To my own thoughts I wont succumb.

My mind it races all the time,

The reason why? That I cant define.

I need to distract myself and fast,

Play some music and make it last.

Because things cant always feel like this,

But thats a thought I just dismiss…

Perhaps I need some time apart,

Self Isolation. Thats a start.

Becaus...

the game has gone to overtime again.

the game has got our teeth aching, white-knuckled grip on nothing

the game has us praying for a last-minute buzzer beater, a final act of god

the game has the next shift hurting, yet we still believe ourselves to be divine

the game has us all thinking _it’s gonna be me i just know i’ll make sure of it_

the game has gone to overtime again.

the game has tha...

I build my pyre with weary hands,

A reckless dance on crumbling sands,

To watch my world in flames unfold,

Burning bright, then turning cold.

The embers spark, they rise, they scream,

Cons...

His eyes showed no emotions,

not even an ounce of devotion.

He carried a lot of baggage,

Due to the fact he felt average.

His time was near and dear,

But only him and god could

understand that type of fear.

His eyes you couldn’t read,

due to them being overshadowed

by the unforeseen deeds.

His eyes showed no emotions,

not even when he took the potion.

because he was now gone,

-I did it again

I gave in

I made a mess on my skin

Then wrote a poem about it

I thought that I was better

I really, really did

But I crack under pressure

So I’ll atone for my sins

I won’t eat today

And I won’t eat tomorrow

But I’ll smile anyway

And cover up my sorrow

I’m stoic that way

And really, it makes sense

I don’t deserve to eat

After doing that nonsense

I’m useless

I’m worthless
