I once put my heart in

the hands of a

shallowed shadow man.

Never again...

The ways I love,

oh so shackled in

fairy tale chains.

Comes in caresses of

the small minded;

like us utterly deranged.

Yet, I'm scatting poetry

against the pale moonlight.

Elbow deep in turmoil

without much insight.

Weaving loss where

god inked his famed.

Where angels and demons

all dress the same.

Trivial...

The hammers banging on my head.

The constant wish that I were dead.

(Can replace this line with “these feelings and thoughts i just can’t shed” if I’m preforming it)

My thoughts are so loud,

Like someone is holding shift.

Sound goes away, my only wish.

Silence was a priceless gift.

The shame.

The migraine.

The thought that everyone knows that I’m in pain,

Kinda like fame.

The paperazzi t...

The questions that ring in my mind.

The questions that scream in my mind.

The questions that hiss in my mind.

The questions that sing in my mind.

The questions the questions the questions-

“STOP!”

I scream out.

For a single second, everything is clear.

For a single second, I can finally breathe.

For a single second, my mind is my own.

For a second a second a second-

“WE’RE BACK!”

They scream ou...

Tw⚠️: self harm, knife.

“FUCK YOU” he yells at me whilst i lock myself in a room and he does too

I reach in my closet and pull out my knife

We’ve been fighting everyday for months it was already so loud i roll down my pants and start making my thighs bleed, i think im cutting to hard but i really dont care at this point i cant see, its all so blurry from the tears. I wipe up the blood and wait ...

Silence was a priceless gift,

A mask, a tool, a bloody fist,

One that punches again and again,

As you just stare and stare, I knew it then,

That silence was a priceless gift.

One you unknowingly gave me,

Your lips sealed, blocking a vast sea

Of words you want to say, but don’t,

A secret you swore you’d never tell, and won’t,

One you unknowingly gave me.

Safety from the violent storm,

Saying noth...

silence was a priceless gift

that i broke when i exploded

and the words spilled out in my hands

thick and inky

hot and steamy

burning the both of us to our barest

the silence kept us in peace

but now everything is rocky and it's all my fault

will i ever be forgiven

dearest?...

A tale I spin, so listen close, I've found, comes people from all over obnoxious and loud.

After hours of labor, in retail's lore,

A moment of respite, a gift to adore.

Oh, silence, you sneaky and elusive friend,

When the day feels long, you gently descend.

A symphony of peace, a temporary release,

From customers who clattered, their voices ceased.

With patience worn thin, and nerves on edge,

I...

you told me:

“i once watched you

sleeping naked in my bed,

curled up and limp,

and i knew

that everything else was bullshit.”

i told you:

“it’s so hard to stay alive these days

or sane,

so let me sleep

while you guard me from it all.”

you told me,

shaken and irritated:

“being in love with you is agonizing,

‘cause one day you’ll stop breathing,

and i already think you’re dying

when you lie ...

Help me. *Help*.

I live within a cacophony. It seizes my heart in an iron-like grip as it roars the roars of a thousand lions. My screams drown in the never-ending noise, and as I close my eyes, my hands over my ears, I suddenly realize...

I can stop this. I can switch the outside off. Turn off the phone notifications. Hey, here's a wild idea... *turn off the phone*.

Turn off YouTube, email, In...

silence was a priceless gift

but i didn’t know it then

because everything is precious

when it has to end

the waves of the quiet

lapped over my wasting corpse

gently lulling me to safety

my body would enforce

but now the noise does choke me

with its dark and sharpened claws

as i scream into the darkness

drowned out by the applause

the thorns drain me of blood

our bodies are packed in

confined t...
