Writings
Caught up in this mess Trying to fight the storm Wanting to hurt But try to fight it down I know it will come to pass But it want to take over All the anger building up Like a storm waiting to strike As I punch it’s like a lighting burst And when im finally calm The storm has come to pass
The anger raged and festered A storm brewing in the soul It threatened to bubble over And lash at everyone Just like in middle school But I’m better than that now I can control myself And if I ever need to explode He will always be there Ready to stand and take the blows Sometimes he annoys me That’s all I let show But deep down I really care More then he’ll ever know
Relief or an ending? Is it over? Or just beginning?
Can we even say the storm is over?
When the effects haunt us every second of every minute of every day
I’m not saying That it’s not gone
The worst of it is in the past
But the future doesn’t look brighter
Will any of this last?
We put ourselves together
Just for another storm to hit
And wreck all of our progress
I don’t know if it’s worth it Maybe we should just hunker down Stay safe in the aftermath
Don’t think about the future
It’s not here yet
Just live In the relief of the end
of the past
Don’t make me mad. Cross my path and your marked missing. I take your friend and you scream;
TAKE ME INSTEAD!
no. You should have left her for dead.
Oh? You don’t want to see this? Chain you down, rip your i lids out, now you’ve got no choice but to watch me!
Oh the blood! Oh this is fun!
“You serve my anger” i hiss
I’m sorry it’s not me, it’s a slip of the mind, maybe some crazy and twisted OCD?
Chop off your limbs, now how you gonna crawl away?
Stars are shining outside, but you can’t see. Your in my basement on your knees begging for mercy.
They whisper about me, THEY THINK I CANT HEAR!
Not much can get under my skin. But still.Don’t say the wrong thing, my target list always has room for a few more! Please, I’m not violent , I’m just misunderstood! My hobbies are a little different! That’s all it is!
I love angry raps and music, but you accomplished me very favorite perfectly, my anguished victims screams!
Rip your tongue out. You were talking about me bad. What do you expect with me?
If I’m hungry, don’t have money? Guess that means your on my menu! Chop you up and put you in my fridge! Oh the sweet taste of revenge.
YOU GOT BLOOD ON MY SHOE!!!???
They cost sooo much! But not more than the price I’ll make you pay for the girl you betray!
Double time, triple time! Got you cornered like a fox and I’m the hunter. Slit your throat and you croak
“Please!”
No chance. My anger brings all my enemies to there knees.
Ps, this was inspired by shadow queen, and some my own emotions on a twisted,murder way. But that’s why they might sound kinda the same. She inspires a lot of my writing and even though I’m not as good of a writer as her you might see some similarities. I Hope she comes back ❤️
days and weeks and months flew by grazing past my ear like a dodgeball in PE the storm came quick but left just as quickly the howling winds turned into silence I didn’t know it would come but i didn’t expect it to leave it left a patch of destruction one that we were left to mend we paved the roads and fixed the houses as the storm proceeded to the next town it’s no longer with me, so whoever meets it next:
good luck.

The harsh waves thud against the hull Of the ship that carries me Across a vast and violent ocean Toward the land I see.
The squalls are fierce as hurricanes— I fear to lose my mind! ‘Tis hard to act or to think clearly In this turbulent wind.
When I see you walking toward me, My heart thunders against my breast. My mind grows foggy, and I can’t fathom A single word. In silence, I rest.
Even when it’s most nessesary I still mess everything up Even when I try my hardest It’s never enough I wanna cry but what’s the point if I can’t get anything right I don’t deserve the right to cry I’m not even worth being alive I’d bet no one would cry I’m only a bag filled with lies That can never get a thing right Ik im the reason my family fights Maybe it’ll be better if I take my life My dark demise might end up being everyone’s light After all I seem to get nothing right
💜Soooo I don’t think this works as a song I tried finding a melody to it nothing fits so this is more of a vent and I hope to God no one feels like this but if so I hope this helps and I’d also recommend talking to someone that usually helps 💜
After the storm She left the football game early And held back her dripping mascara.
After the storm She stepped into the car And took off her white jacket.
After the storm She went to her closet And cried for an end to the pain.
After the storm She shuffled their playlist And vowed never to listen again.
After the storm She ignored all his texts And her friends would pick up to her crying.
After the storm She hid from the world And tore down the walls she called love.
After the storm
She left her closet
And
Slowly
Forgot
His
Name.
