I slowly rot from this internal decay
Dying piece by piece day after day
The days are long but my life was short
This endless misery I'd just soon abort
This hellish pain that lives inside of my head
My body withered blistered and dead
My life before seems like a dream
I can't escape from the hellish scene
20 years in a blood soaked coffin
My skin has died and my teeth are rotten
My hair comes out in patches of lockets
And my eyes have suck-en into the sockets
(For 20 years)
For 20 years I've been dying alone
For 20 years my flesh falls from the bone
For 20 years I thought that death was the end
But my soul has remained in this blood soaked
coffin
In this blood soaked coffin...
I am reaching for the words that seem so distant
Words that I never even spoken
I write this poem for my grandfather
In this time when my world is broken:
It happened today at noon
And tears continue to flood my face
You weren't there when I came home
I couldn't feel your warm embrace
A sudden death took over you
No one exchanged any good-byes
There is only one way to express my love
That's why you hear my silent cries
Grandpa I know what you would say
If you were sitting with me today
You would say it is a terrible shame
And that crying is not the way
But what in the world can one do
When the one they loved departed
You left me here with a loss of words
And a soul that's broken hearted
It seems like more than decades ago
Where you taught me how to swing
You left the greatest impact on me
Grandpa you made me grow my wings
I learned the greatest lesson in life
I learned everything from you
You taught me how to live at ease
Everything you said was true
My tears drained right out of my skin
My eyes were swollen; I couldn't see
I hardly ever saw this coming
Your absence greatly affected me
Your pictures are hanging everywhere
And it really cuts me like a knife
Your soul not only left this earth
But you also messed up my own life
You touched our lives endlessly
And in two seconds you were gone
You brought our whole family together;
I don't think we will ever carry on.
The only gentleman I've ever known
Grandfather I am forever in your debt
You seemed so alive and full of spirit
And you are one of the few I won't forget
I have a few words to say to you
Grandpa I know you can hear me well
Since you never said good-bye here
To heaven I will write you this farewell:
You'll always be in my heart grandpa
And you will affect my life forever.
But being without you isn't permanent.
Because one day we'll all be together
I walk around all day
like everythings okay
but those smiles and laughs
wont last for long
because at night
its the fright
that makes my tears break loose
not too long i'll be gone
but for now, i lay in my room
in my bed hopelessly crying my self to sleep...
wonder why...wonder why God left me here all alone...
the only thing on my minds dying
but i know my plans will fall through
just like they always do
but why
let me go
take me away
to a land with no pain
to a land with no worries
to a land with bright futures
where i can be who i want to be
where i can be loved
instead of living in this misery
pretending im okay
pretending i'm okay~
but you don't know how hard i try...
to hide my wounds
to hide my pain
because at night
its the fright
that makes my tears break loose
not too long i'll be gone
but for now, i lay in my room
in my bed hopelessly crying my self to sleep...
wonder why...wonder why God left me here all alone...
because i don't want to show my weak side
because i don't need such sympathy
because all i need is...love...
let me go
take me away
to a land with no pain
to a land with no worries
to a land with bright futures
where i can be who i want to be
where i can be loved
instead of living in this misery
pretending im okay
pretending i'm okay~
You think you know how I feel
But you don't, you're never right
You actually believe you understand
Why I slit my wrists at night?
You can't see the hurt that breeds
You can't count all the times I've cried
You think this smile on my face is real
Just another thing about my life I've lied
You think I'm happy bu I'm not
Just one more assumption you've made
Cause every time I feel you near
I just simply hide the blade
I'll be a good girl, I'll put on
A smile that isn't real
I'll let you stare through my pain like glass
Let you think you know how I feel
I'll suppress myself, I'll let you pretend
You know how I scarred my arm
I have no choice but allow you to believe
You know why I inflict myself with harm
It's not as easy as it seems
It's something I just can't stop
All the hurt in my life
Bleeds out with each red drop
I feel so cold, I feel so numb
Everyone's touch just feels like ice
My heart turns away your comforting words
Simple solitude is its price
I'm giving up, I'll tell you why
You're breaking my protective wall
I'd rather feel this blinding pain
Than be numb and feel nothing at all
You want to be my tourniquet
But you're the one watching me drown
Let go of my clipped wings
Stop nailing them to the ground
My bloody wings are invisible to you
As I'm lying on the floor
But with these wings and these slit wrists
One day you'll see me soar
A little quiet house you see
Just sitting right before you
Everything seems so picture-perfect
That you would never believe what was true
I know you can't see the reality
You see the pictures with fake smiles tied
But beneath the surface lays the truth
Showing all of the tears ever cried
As you walk through the door now
You stand upon the floor
Where a girls body was thrown
Till she couldn't move any more
And on the steps you're walking
Was where she was pushed down
A never-ending series of pain
Till she fell upon that ground
Now while you come upon this wall
You may notice a hole that barely hides
That's where a girl was strangled
Finally let go when she screamed out her insides
When you come to the kitchen
You'll never know that white floor was once red
Where parents gave the girl a knife
And told her to slit her wrists so she'd be dead
Now walk into this bedroom now
Look into this closet that seems bare
That's where a suicide attempt happened
The little girl was hanging right there
Take a walk down stairs to the basement
And come to the main living room
That's where a girl was beaten
Thinking she would meet her doom
Still you don't quite understand the truth
It all seems to be a lie
This fake illusion that you now see
Hides the truths deadly cry
As you turn around now
You see a darkened door
Just open this now
And you will see the truth in horror
Upon the bed lies the body of a girl
And next to her a suicide letter
Telling of the reality of her life
And how it never would get better
I can see your tears stream
For now it is the Grand Finale
The truth is that I live here
And that little girl is me...
i wish life was like an editing room,
where i could rewind and pause at the good times,
delete out the sad times,
and fast forward through the hard times...
You want to know what hurts the most?
Not losing him, not that he likes one of my friends
Not the way we embraced, not the way we held hands
The thing that hurts the most is my heart
It holds the memories that make it ache
Its the way you look into my eyes
That feeling you give me, its like butterflies
And you got me getting all shy
Baby you are the one I will want until the day I die
You are the only one that can keep me feeling like this
Because I can tell you, this is truely bliss
And when you go, you know you will always be the one that I miss
I don't like the way I keep having to wait to see you
It makes me all so sad and very blue
I have never felt anything this true
Its in the way in eveything that you do
I love the way you smell, that special scent of yours
I know you are THE ONE and I can not be anymore sure
Because I get so down the minute you walk out of that door
It leaves me crying for ages on my bedroom floor
I love everything about the way that you are
Everything, everywhere, and everytime, its always about you
You are nothing less than my shining star
You'll only understand these feelings if you were in my shoes.
Whenever i look at you it seems like i don't want you,
i don't even care but deep down inside all I'm thinking about is you
the way you look
the way you smile
the way you talk
and the way you look into my eyes whenever i pass you by
i cant get enough of you
cant you see it in my eyes that all i wanna do is be with you
until the sun falls from the sky
There are so many words I cannot say,
when I look into your eyes.
I want to be able to tell you one day,
but I'm left speechless every time that I try.
You must have stumbled across the key,
and discovered so much more.
You found a hidden place in me,
you found my heart and opened the door.
And I cried in pain
of losing my dear friend.
Will it ever be the same again?
If it passes will it be the end?
I realized it was worth so much,
as I lie in bed that night.
So I allowed my soul to be touched,
without even putting up a fight.
Are my eyes deceiving me,
when I see you standing there?
Are you playing games,
just to prove I care?
You speak my name in a prelude,
in a reference to love,
with such loving attitude,
as if it were a message from above.
With the palms of your hands
pressed firmly against mine,
a white doves lands,
and the sun begins to shine.
Someday I will see,
though that day has not come yet.
You'll say you love me,
but will you ever forget?
If that happens and my spirit dies,
if my emotions drop,
will you want to hold me when I cry?
Or will the love just suddenly stop?
We can't expect to fall in love and never cry.
You'll stay and play your part,
but after the beauty starts to die,
will your footprints still be on my heart?
Though it would be hard to say goodbye,
your friend I'll always be,
as long as we always try,
to keep the friendship between you and me.
The letter I will not send
will casually inquire,
how could you have brought it to an end?
I was your one desire.
After this life is over,
you'll be one person I know I'll miss.
It'll be too late to start over, and so I leave you with this...
I'll hold you for a lifetime,
if you'll just hold my hand.
We could have a wonderful time,
in the days we have not yet planned.
I am just that funny little girl,
who has always made you laugh;
the one who was always there for you
when your world was torn in half.
I am that girl,
who always seems to smile,
so you never knew what was wrong;
or maybe you did, and were just in denial.
You see me. That girl,
with her world spiraling down.
Yet, you still do not ask about her
when you see her secret frown.
I am that girl,
with a joke to make your day,
but when at home, all alone,
soo depressed...
So keep telling me your problems,
and don't ask me mine.
Just keep on thinking
that I'm always fine.
Yes, I am that girl.
That will always care,
and if there is someone who cares,
I can't seem to find them anywhere.
Mom, Dad,
I really need to go.
I really wanted a life,
And to be someones wife,
But I had to use the knife.
To rid all the pain in my life.
Please don't be sad,
And dad please don't get mad.
I needed to go.
I really wanted to die,
But I don't want you to cry,
But only if you could understand why
Depression taking over
going at its own will
no more being happy
time is standing still
alone in a room
crying on my own
im caught up in depression
feelings r not known
im all alone
no one cares
that hurt inside
rips and tears
depression is all i know
i wasted all my feelings
theres nothing left to show
Underneath the surface
Beneath the skin
Here is where i hide.
Locked away.
Hidden deep with in myself are my
Thoughts
Memories and
Dreams of happier days
Those days are in the past
The dreadful future lies ahead
My days full of joy and laughter never seem to last.
Life used to seem so simple
Almost as black and white
But now my simple days are gone
And the black and white turned gray...
So here is where i hide..
Here is where i'll stay...
Hidden until prayers are answered...
Hidden here with my better days.
It all came so fast,
She hoped she’d be able to put it in the past.
She didn’t know what to do,
He said he “had to.”
But she knew it didn’t feel right.
She didn’t make a move because of all the fright.
She laid there not making a sound,
She wanted to scream for help, but no one was around.
When she started to fright,
He’d hold her down tight.
“Get off me” came out of m, but he used all his might,
She closed her tear filled eyes but he was still in sight.
Her fear was starting to get the best of her,
Suddenly she was swallowed into a big, black blur.
She thought he would never stop, never come to an end.
When she felt him let loose the words, the awful words he said.
By the time someone found her cold, lifeless body on the bed,
They came to realize she was already dead.
this is a poem based on what happened to me in my past...no i didn't die but that's how i felt inside...
My mind is often drifting, to the memories of our past,
So with a tear I’m wondering, why you let it go so fast.
You made endless vows to me, that I’m still believing now,
And I do to try to forget you, but I simple don’t know how.
You’re always in my mind and heart, I only wish you knew,
That I’m sat here crying, ‘Cause I’m still in love with you.
A million tears have fallen, for the pain you caused within,
And I have no strength at all, with the state you left me in.
My prayers are never answered, God’s just as tired as me,
Tired of each pitiful dream, that I wish would come to be.
The conversations long since over, nothing more to say,
But even though I turned my back, I just couldn’t walk away.
Although you’re fine without me, I can’t deny my heart,
You tell me that we’ll still be friends, but that’s so far apart.
You pulled the ground beneath me, with the words you said,
And still I’m falling further down, with echoes in my head.
I knew I’d take a fall that day, when you let go of my hands,
But I know falling this deep, was not part of my plans.
Unto this day I love you, but these words you will ignore,
To you I’m just a memory, of our love that is no more.
I guess I sound pathetic, but one thing's more than true,
Baby I’ll be holding on, ‘Cause I’m still in love with you.
I walk into a room
Filled with anger and hatred
Gazing to the left
To see her shattered face there
Only sixteen,
And already she is broken
Trying so hard to swim
But she only keeps choking
I look down at the sink
Only to see her rich blood
Spread across the marble
Like some twisted form of art
Her hair covers her face
As she bows her head in shame
Knowing that her life
Will never be the same
She can never show her arms
Or a smile on her face
Because both would be revealing
The pain she sees each day
So beaten down by life
It hurts me to look at her
It breaks my heart to see
That there's nothing i can do for her
Fed up with watching, and doing nothing-
I reach for her hand
And tears come to my eyes
I just don't understand?!
I feel the cool glass
slide underneath my fingers
on the edge of panic
my life lingers..
My heart grasps at terror
as i glance to see
my own green eyes
staring back at me
the mist in my eyes fades
as my vision grows clearer
and i can finally see
that it was a mirror
no!
stop!
that just can't be!
i refuse to believe,
that girl was me!
I'm not depressed
where as she was
i'm just sad at times
and all because
my life is hell
the roles reversed-
and i feel so guilty:
it could be so much worse
i stumble back
and still i see
my own green eyes
staring back at me..
I’m almost dying every night
Endless tears fall down
Screaming at the top of my voice
And yet I make no sound.
But don’t you worry I’ll hide it
Tomorrow, It will not show
I’ll cover it up, every trace
Not one of you shall know.
So much inside, so many emotions
For a pitiful, worthless soul
I’ve held on for much too long
That I’ve lost all my control.
But don’t you worry, It won’t show
These feelings I will hide
No one will hear, no one will see
The shadows by my side.
I fall apart, lose self-respect
To a point of self destruction
I lose my faith, don’t ask of hope
Lost everything to corruption.
But don’t you worry, I’ll lie again
I’ll be the girl you think you see
I’ll carry on, like nothing’s wrong
Be the girl you want me to be.
And for the record, It’s getting tough
These smiles are harder to fake
I’m getting tired of trying each day
To the point, where I almost break.
But don't you worry, It's all okay
I'll act like nothing's wrong
I'll fall alone, I'll crumble in two,
And still, convince you I'm strong.
