She didn’t want to remember,
She desperately wanted to forget
The memories and thoughts were overwhelming her
She couldn’t handle it anymore
It was pulling her down to where she couldn’t climb out
Where she just didn’t have the strength to want to
She was tired of hurting everyone
Didn’t feel like she deserved to be here
So when left alone this sad, lost girl came up with a plan
Something that she set forth later that night
When she knew all was lost to her
She swallowed all the pills she could find and waited
Then cut her wrists wanting so bad to be released
To be removed from the pain in her heart
To stop herself from hurting everyone
With the stinging in her skin she swallowed some more pills
Starting to feel dizzy and confused
She lays down unable to stand up or walk
And closes her eyes with only the t.v. on
Ready for it all to end
Next thing she knows she is sitting on the bed feeling weightless
She looks down and sees something curious
Leaning closer she notices it is herself
She is hanging on a thread barely attached
Yet she feels free feels a pull from somewhere
The room gets bright and it feels so strange
It fills her with a lightness a longing a hope
She hears something behind her
A soft loving voice that sends love through her like warmth
“It is not your time to come home yet. You need to go back, you still have much to do”
The voice says to her and the brightness disappears
And the girl is back on the floor in her body with a thud
Struggling to get up her body fighting against the pills
Forcing them from her system
She stands today a stronger girl
With a strong desire and intent
To find what she was meant to do with her life
The reason she wasn’t taken home.
Dream
I dream of him while I sleep
He who will sweep me off
my feet
Who will make me feel like
I have wings
To fly away with him and
leave all things
Who will dry away my tears
When I am crying
And chase away my fears
So I’m not dying
I dream of him while I’m
awake
I away with him he will take
Away in the sky – far
from here
Though I know we will be
ever near
I see him every time I close
my eyes
Winking at me, being sly
I hear his voice in all my
sighs
Making my heart seem to fly
I dream of him with all my
being
He who everyday I am seeing
Next to me, sleeping in bed
With me everyday until I’m
dead
But will I feel him holding
my hand
Walking down the street?
On his shoulder, will I lay
my head
Sitting in the park seat?
I dream of him, though is
he real?
I know him and love him,
or so I feel
The one I am meant to be
with
Is nowhere to be seen with
Unable to find him near
Losing hope, I cry in desolation
Upset because I won’t
be with him, I tear
Not wanting to live without
him, I drink a poison potion.
On My Own
Looking around to find an escape,
I seem to be lost of late.
Climbing up from the cliff I had fallen
off of.
Searching for that sign of peace, that
dove,
To tell me I am almost near,
Getting closer to being in the clear.
Clawing my way past every barrier,
Each one looking that much scarier.
Pausing so, each specter, I will fight,
With the thought in mind of seeing the
light.
Each success making me that much more brave,
Giving me hope that
someone will save –
Me. loosing
faith in those when one walks away,
Giving cause for my
emotions to sway.
You don’t want
to help me? That’s fine,
Just walk away, trust
me I won’t whine.
I won’t wait
on people to help me anymore
Believing in most
is just a chore.
Just go away now,
I don’t want your help,
I tell you true now,
I can do it myself.
Mental Freedom
At a crossroads as to what I should do
My mind wants one thing my family wants
another
My thoughts and feelings are so misconstrued
Every time I think about it, it seems like
such a bother.
I feel like if I go one way
I hurt someone on the other end
No matter what I do, there is nothing I
can say
A person out of my life with each action
will send.
Should I go back or should I stay here,
What would happen if I decide not to choose?
Losing someone in my life is something
huge I fear,
My life will be different if anyone of
them, I loose.
A decision must be made soon
I
still am not sure what to do
I fear that any choice I make will make
me into a loon
On these, my mind must continue to chew.
In the end, the decision is up to me
Though each bit of advice will be held
in my mind
Each loving “I miss you” is
a delightful treat
All of these things though do not fully
bind.
Though I will have my friends and family
always
What I have to do, is what feels right
to me
I know I have both in so many ways
What I need for me, is just to see.
My spirit and mind, they so need to be
free
Of all problems and bindings that surround
them
And though in me head I have my dreams
Reality must set in so I can do the best
for me.
Untitled
In times of trouble
I find you near
I blame you at first
Because I don’t understand
I come to learn
That there is a reason
For everything that happens
I turn to you
For security and undeniable
love
To help me get through
What seems to be unsurpassable
With you near
I can accomplish a great
deal
though there are times
When I don’t acknowledge
Your presence in my life
I get angry and turn away
When things go wrong
But I know this one thing
That you are a surety
That no matter how many times
I may walk away from you
I will be able to find you
again
Right there, where I left
you
Praying for my return
Thank you for that
For showing me it is ok to
stray
As long as I will eventually
return
Thank you for having faith
My faith in you has been
restored
because your faith in me
Has been unwavering
Thank you for loving me
For trusting me to do what
is right
The only way I can show my
gratitude
Is by turning to face you
once again
With open arms
And an open, willing heart
To spread your word,
And do your deeds
To be the servant I am meant
to be.
Loss of thought
Words
are but letters added together
To tell
a person how you feel
Easy enough
to form
With simple
thought
So why
is it that when you are near
I try
to say how I feel but
Not even
a single letter
Comes
to mind
A simple
thought process
To create
the words I need
Can’t
be done
With you
on hand
My mind
wanders often to you
My blood
pulses faster with each thought
And like
a guardian angel
You arrive,
on hand to help
If I am
in trouble
Like a
savior from above
To rescue
me with your love
Though
at times I need solitude
To think
things through
Other
times I am wooed
By a simple
smile
That crosses
your lips
I don’t
understand
These
things I feel
Stick
with me through these times
For I
will come to comprehend
The magnitude
of what you mean to me.
A Shadow of Me
A crying
is heard in the distance
I can
hear it
But I
don’t know where it’s coming from
I walk
down the street when I see her
A lone
figure walks through the silence of night
She cries
as she walks
Feeling
that no one hears her
I try
to speak out
To tell
her that I hear her
That she
isn’t alone
And that
I care
She seems
so familiar to me
Like I
knew her
But for
some reason I couldn’t find her name
I follow
her,
Seeing
what she sees
As if
I am floating above her
I can’t
understand what is going on
It is
like we are one in the same
I lift
my hand and see her lift hers
Then it
dawns on me
I am she
But why
does it feel like we are separate
Like we
are apart?
I am the
one who is crying
I am the
one who is walking alone
I feel
separated from the world
From all
the ones I love so much
Why do
my tears burn my cheeks as they fall?
It feels
like they are acidic in nature
My voice
is hoarse from crying out
Can’t
anybody hear me?
They are
out there,
But can
they really hear me?
Those
I love, those that want to help
Seem to
be so far away
So far
out of reach
I feel
alone
As if
I am the only one that can hear my cries
And see
my pain, feel what I feel.
An Escape
The dark
is cold and consuming
Yet somehow
comforting
All alone
in this world
People
bickering
Always
fighting
I want
to hide from it
Desire
to be released
From the
binds that hold me
To this
cold dismal place
Weak with
pain, tired of crying
Afraid
to do anything
To be
noticed
Slip off
to oblivion
For only
a short time
Sitting
in dark solitude
Where
nothing can reach
Nothing
can find
Away from
the pain
Separated
from anger
No need
to fear
This shall
pass
As everything
does
No escape
From reality
Darkness
will rape
The mind
And keep
it captured
If you
let it.
A Desire to Feel
Within
a time
Of myth
and hope
Around
you I will not mope
Like a
fantasy out of my mind
Arriving
to help me survive
For within
reason, truth does chime
A dream
like haze
Floats
over my eyes
Blinding
me from all lies
In your
eyes I must gaze
To search
your soul
To know
you are real
Because
I need to feel –
So I can
be whole
Part of
my heart
Is reserved
solely for you
This will
forever be true
I don’t
ever want these feelings to part
Be forever
near me
Your face
in my mind I will see.
A Decision
A time
of frustration surrounds
Causing
endless stress
Needing
to escape for
Just a
little bit
Retreating
into the sanctuary
Where
only I exist
And there
are no problems
Another
problem
And I
feel like I’m going to burst
Outbursts
with those I love
Kill me
every time
When I
see the hurt in their faces
And know
they care
But they
don’t understand
All that
I feel
Though
they may know
The situation
Feeling
as if I am alone
Stuck
in a rut with no help to arrive
Trying
to make a decision that will
Forever
alter my life
One way
or another
Afraid
to set out
Yet afraid
to move on
And leave
my past behind
But it
is time for me to grow up
For me
to be the adult
Make my
own choices
As hard
as they are.
Uncertainty
A tumult
of emotions
Spiral
crazily as thoughts
Soar about
over head
Trying
to make sense
Of feelings
that seem pointless
Living
life in an endless routine
Something
changes
My mind
moves on
But my
heart stays behind
Leaving
me confused
Every
time I talk to you
I get
so confused
I can’t
get over how you
Made me
feel when we were together
I don’t
get why
You seem
so special to me
No matter
how I felt
When you
weren’t there
Everything
felt so right
When you
were near
Now, with
you so far away
Life seems
so useless
But somehow
I must
Move on
with life
And hope
with all my strength
That we
will meet up again.
Getting lost in a sense of happiness
that simply will not last
afraid to open up to the one involved
just afraid to get hurt yet again
She knows that the pain is inevitable
that in one form or another it will come
without fail, it always does
this poor girl, so afraid
of something so beautiful
cynical before her time
will lose the one that matters most to her
because of her fearful cynical nature
another tear, another rip in her fragile heart
unless she throws her past aside and steps ahead of it
allows her heart to open up
and accept the thing she truely desires the most.
A long gone part of my past
i put you in my past
didn't want the memory to last
so why is it that
whenever i am happy
you find a way to slither in
and make me remember
all the #### you did
to ruin my life
just
go away
leave me be
i don't want to know
how you have been
i am done with you
don't want you near
you have
no right to interfer
i don't even know
why it was so important to me
to have your friendship
in the beginning
yet
couldn't figure out why
i just couldn't trust you
a snake in sheeps clothing
that is what you are
not a wolf cuz
you aren't majestic like that
a snake slithering upon your belly
hiding in a semblance of good
waiting to attack
the next victim
well it won't be me anymore
because i won't let you in
i have that wall up
you always said
to
let it down
well i have reasons not to
reasons like you that happened long ago
goodbye forever
to forgive you
for what you did
will take a long time
so all i can do is to let you go
out of my mind...block you eternally
so
you won't hurt me anymore.
A tear falls from glassy blue orbs
A strong but tender hand reaches out
To
wipe away the tear
Loving and soft, a gentle touch
Helping to ease the pain
That is felt deep within
A journey
taken, long and perilous
Curving and winding, dipping and rising
Never straight, never easy
A tendency to fall from the right behavior
shows
A stern voice calls out
To teach and guide
Caring yet hard, a model to follow
Molding into what is meant to be
Keeping the discipline strict,
So that the mind grows
And the heart loves with unrelenting loyalty.
Find my soul
Caught adrift on a wave of blissful immortality
Immune from the pain of death
Still feeling emotional train wreck
Of love and loss, and in between
Stuck in the eternal rut of repeating
The same mental state of the decisions
past made
Trying to hide from the internal demons
Stabbing at my soul leaving ragged gashes
That never do heal, only rip open more
They never leave, and are never silent
Close my eyes to block out the world
And they are there waiting to tear into
me more
Leaving my crying out in hysteria
Begging them to let me be
Detach myself from my body
To be alone in my mind
Where I can’t be harmed
But I can’t be loved
Because they don’t understand
The hurt that I feel, they never will
Destined to be alone for all of time
Until I find one that will understand
One that will deny these demons access
To the torn and tattered soul that dwells
inside
One that will protect me from pain
And love me for the one that I am
But is there truly one, who can do that,
Who can love me unconditionally despite
my faults?
So alone I stay trying to dodge the demons
Until He finds me,
Wait I think he already has.
A tumult of emotions
Spiral crazily as thoughts
Soar about over head
Trying to make sense
Of feelings that seem pointless
Living life in an endless routine
Something changes
My mind moves on
But my heart stays behind
Leaving me confused
Every time I talk to you
I get so confused
I can’t get over how you
Made me feel when we were together
I don’t get why
You seem so special to me
No matter how I felt
When you weren’t there
Everything felt so right
When you were near
Now, with you so far away
Life seems so useless
But somehow I must
Move on with life
And hope with all my strength
That we will meet up again.
A phone call is answered
And suddenly my world falls apart
Right from under my feet
Like the ground dissolved
Causing me to fall
Tears fall freely
As I come to grips
Losing you is the worst thing
That could happen in my life
There is a roaring in my ears now
In an attempt to block out whatever
Other bad news there could be
My shaking hands lift up to my face
Holding my head as I cry
As all the memories flood my mind
No longer will I hear your strong voice
Reassuring me
When I am confused
Will you guide me still
Now that you are gone?
How will I survive the coming years
Without you by my side?
Somehow my pain will subside
And remember that you will watch over me
Though right now
All I can do is cry.
Break me down
Tear me apart
Chew me up
And spit me out
Leave me in a corner
Huddled up
In a crying heap
Can’t you see what you do to me?
I stand before you
Trying to show you
That I am real
That I am hurt
It feels like my tears
Are invisible to you
That my pain
Feeds your pleasure
Break me down
Tear me apart
Chew me up
And spit me out
Leave me in a corner
Huddled up
In a crying heap
Can’t you see what you do to me?
I am walking away
You will see me
I am done
I am mad
For long enough
Have you ignored me
Through with the burning tears
Sick of being
Your little pincushion.
