POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I didn't want you to see me cry, so I laughed.
This Void Mind
A soft breeze caresses my bare skin,
Sending shivers up my spine.
Lying back on onto the grass.
Shimmers of light cascade down my body.
Blank, empty eyes stare up into the sky.
The clouds roll on, and the sun continues to shine.
The void in my heart begins to throb.
I clench my fists, and close my eyes.
The spaces between my fingers are where his should be.
But they aren't anymore.
The leaves sway softly in the wind,
Filling my desolate mind with pained memories.
I begin to drown in reminiscence of what we once had..
Sending shivers up my spine.
Lying back on onto the grass.
Shimmers of light cascade down my body.
Blank, empty eyes stare up into the sky.
The clouds roll on, and the sun continues to shine.
The void in my heart begins to throb.
I clench my fists, and close my eyes.
The spaces between my fingers are where his should be.
But they aren't anymore.
The leaves sway softly in the wind,
Filling my desolate mind with pained memories.
I begin to drown in reminiscence of what we once had..

I feel so weightless. I feel so skinny.
I feel beautiful. Oh, hipbones, you make me feel complete.
You show me what I really want in this world.
Collarbones, you show me how beautiful I really am.
I'm what everyone wants to be.
They want to be skinny just like me.
"Wow, have you lost weight?" Why, yes, I have.
Rib bones, please show yourself even more, pronounce yourself,
show me how to feel. Give me something to feel.
The hunger pains are clawing on my sunken in stomach,
There's no fat for you to absorb. Just suffer, like me.
Your...

Closure
It's the ending of our book, the final chapter.
This story is coming to a close, sadly.
All of the time we spent together is not regretted.
Maybe a little...
I knew this needed to be done.
Because I am not me when I'm with you.
I'll never forget what we shared, it was so beautiful.
Our love. I don't want anything from you.
All I want really want, is to feel closure.

Beautiful Heartbreak
The beauty of heartbreak
Is a painful thing.
You want them to be happy,
Even if it means you're not.

This isn't me
This isn't me.
I'm trying to be who I used to,
Just to please you mother fuckers.
I'm not so sure what I'm supposed to be doing.
I've lost my artistic, creative, insane side.
Now the only thing I'm painting is my face with hollow smiles.
I patch my anger up inside.
You're lucky I'm holding it in.
You don't want to know what runs through my head.
You don't know my sick desires.
I seem okay, right?
Right..?
You don't see what I see.
You don't feel how I do.
You don't want to be me.
Walk a fucking mile in my shoes.

It hurts.
It really fucking hurts.
I don't even have a grip on sanity anymore.
Kill me.
I don't even have a grip on sanity anymore.
Kill me.

Anorexia
Binge, purge, cry, repeat.
Swear to me that you wont eat.
Make yourself starve to thin.
Got control? You will win.

I dont know anymore.
I'm just here.
Not sure if there's meaning behind my existence.
Things feel pretty hopeless right now. All I do is sleep.
Sleep my life away. I guess it doesn't matter.
I feel so useless and hopeless.
I wish I just had to worry about what I'd be doing for the weekend.
Not the things I have to worry about now.
I am truly alone.
Truly. Alone.

Suicidal Symphony
Dizzy.
Dizzy..
Dizzy...
Sitting there.
Satisfied with yourself.
You're ready.
Your world swirls around you.
As it comes crashing down.
You laugh.
Struggling to hold yourself up.
Your brain fighting to stay alive.
Flickering eyelids.
Twitching eyes.
Falling into yourself.
Getting lost inside of paradise.
Breaths become shallow.
The world seems to implode.
You cant see.
Filmy eyes opened wide.
Seeing blurs and swirls.
You cant see...
What have you done?...

Our Last Words
Our last words.
All come out.
Hurting or helping.
I don't fucking know.
We're not okay.
Like a dream, it doesn't seem real.
This isn't happening.
I hate that damn feeling.
Sickness. In your stomach.
When you're hurt.
When you're sad.
Sadly, I always feel it there.
I don't want to hear your last words.
You don't want to hear mine.
I'll learn to keep my heart away.
Locked in the chest.
I won't let anyone in.
I'm sorry, I don't like being hurt.
But I think I do.
I like to feel.
Anything.
Even...

I dont know
I want to just throw my hands up.
Why can't I?
I've spent too many nights alone in my room.
Hurting.
Crying.
Suffering.
I don't know who I am anymore.
Looking in the mirror, I don't recognize what I see.
What have I become?
I'm not sure what to feel anymore.
Breaking point is near.
I can feel it.
I'm not happy.
The fire in my heart is out.
No motivation to live.
Where will it go from here?

Goodbye~
The darkest pits of hell would be better
than the torture I'm put through every day.
It's overbearing. I can't take it anymore. I'm conflicted.
I'm tired of being alive, but scared of dying.
I think I just need to overcome my fear. I could put an end to all this in seconds.
I'm used to things falling apart. This feeling is so severe.
Will it ever go away..?
It's fine. I fuck everything up anyways.
I ruin every relationship I have with someone.
I'm scared of being alone.
I'm scared of being hurt.
It's okay, ill be gone soon..
I'm not...
