Gone
I couldn’t find myself,
when my voice lost its way out
of my lips, stifled in my throat,
when my tears hung behind my lids,
flooding the back of my eyes,
when I stared at the screen
for a bit longer, unblinking,
when I became a stranger
to my own mind.
I was gone, scattered into dust.
when my voice lost its way out
of my lips, stifled in my throat,
when my tears hung behind my lids,
flooding the back of my eyes,
when I stared at the screen
for a bit longer, unblinking,
when I became a stranger
to my own mind.
I was gone, scattered into dust.

Swallowed Me Whole
I tried to feel something
I loved her & she loved me
I don't know what happened
Everything was going well
Then all of a sudden, I got cold like there was a stranger next to me
I tried to get rid of the feeling but it swallowed me
She asked me what my problem was and how she can help
She was right next to me and it sounded like she was from another planet
I almost forgot her name
I still don't understand it
I was in love with her and then in a flash, I couldn't think of a single reason that I should be with her
I left her that night...
I loved her & she loved me
I don't know what happened
Everything was going well
Then all of a sudden, I got cold like there was a stranger next to me
I tried to get rid of the feeling but it swallowed me
She asked me what my problem was and how she can help
She was right next to me and it sounded like she was from another planet
I almost forgot her name
I still don't understand it
I was in love with her and then in a flash, I couldn't think of a single reason that I should be with her
I left her that night...

Bleed
A parchment and a quill
is all I ever seek
to craft a tapestry
of emotional streak
People may call me a freak-
writing and erasing
what I dream, what I mean-
lost in futile chasing
Madness mystifying
as night spreads in the sky;
pen running on blank page
as wild feelings soar high
It's my laughter and cry
that echoes on crisp sheets;
senseless verses naked
as my heart and soul bleeds
is all I ever seek
to craft a tapestry
of emotional streak
People may call me a freak-
writing and erasing
what I dream, what I mean-
lost in futile chasing
Madness mystifying
as night spreads in the sky;
pen running on blank page
as wild feelings soar high
It's my laughter and cry
that echoes on crisp sheets;
senseless verses naked
as my heart and soul bleeds

Melt the Frost
Sometimes we lose our minds
Trapped between two walls colliding
Feels like you will be crushed
A war between two sides are fighting
Crash and burn just like a car
Explosion within, the world's on fire
A hose is needed to put it out
The situation is getting dire
We try to make it out
From the depths of hell below
Lost in an endless maze
Nowhere for you to go
Trapped beneath the waves
Held down by all your fear
Afraid you will lose it all
The devil will then appear
It's hard to find hope ...
Trapped between two walls colliding
Feels like you will be crushed
A war between two sides are fighting
Crash and burn just like a car
Explosion within, the world's on fire
A hose is needed to put it out
The situation is getting dire
We try to make it out
From the depths of hell below
Lost in an endless maze
Nowhere for you to go
Trapped beneath the waves
Held down by all your fear
Afraid you will lose it all
The devil will then appear
It's hard to find hope ...

Lexicographical Interdependence
Day 1: one-syllable words;
Day 2: two-letter words;
Day 3: three-letter words;
Day 4: what could this mean?
Spotting the pattern, said he,
"I'm looking forward to the later rounds...!"
She replied,
"as if I'm going to keep this up for a month!
They take hours, and aren't that good!
Here are my self-imposed criteria;
I urge you to give it a go!"
"Oh," said he,
"you have to do one with 15-letter words,
that's only halfway!"
"Shut up, David!" ...

Sunny Eyes
Sunny eyes beam through this storm of fury.
Before me, the whirling fog illuminates white
at the pulses of lightning from within me.
I do not know what can damper this storm.
What antipsychotic medication can calm!
I prefer to trek on blindly through
the fog of the psychotic episodes -
I as the lightning pulses from my eyes -
my still healthy consciousness illumines
my life’s path before me and it’s scary.
Before me, the whirling fog illuminates white
at the pulses of lightning from within me.
I do not know what can damper this storm.
What antipsychotic medication can calm!
I prefer to trek on blindly through
the fog of the psychotic episodes -
I as the lightning pulses from my eyes -
my still healthy consciousness illumines
my life’s path before me and it’s scary.

Why we can't find love
Why we can't find love in these days and times, as well as the truth of what love really means to the, deepness of the truth of a beautiful heart 💖 For sure why continue to tell yourself that love doesn't exist anymore, for isn't it hard enough. YET we always find situations in our own life, to compare what is truly happening, in our lives in these days and times. To be able to have a strong commitment with real consistency and real communications. TO be able to share our thoughts and insight and feelings and emotions, in the process of deeply creating a solid foundation. For it's...

Walk this crazy life
Walk this crazy life like a drunk tightrope walker
arms wide, laughing at the wobble.
Perfection’s a myth sold by liars and crooks,
while the real ones stitch gold from their unraveled threads.
Regrets? Stack them like unpaid bills,
then strike a match. Watch how quick
ash becomes fertile ground.
Even poison can grow roses
if you stop calling it poison.😏
When the dark comes, and it comes
like a freight train with no lights
grin crooked at the abyss.
Teeth are just tiny headstones...
arms wide, laughing at the wobble.

Goodbye DUP
It’s been almost 8 years since I joined DU.
It’s been almost 8 years since I left my abusive ex-husband.
I had been living with him for 8 years before finding this site.
Finding DU was finding my voice, a voice that had been silenced for so long. I was being tortured, suffering, suicidal, and on the verge of relapsing with self-harm.
The community here saw my pain bleeding onto the page, and you came to support and uplift me. More than that, you all saw my potential, and encouraged me to overcome great feats.
There will never be another...

Twist of Fate
What kind of cruel trick is this
That destiny has played on me
Feeling some kind of bliss
I try to run I tried to flee
But this connection overwhelmed me
I was powerless to resist
I am always much too good
Always Love the way I wish someone would
Love me back
If someone did I’d always walk the line
I’d stay on track
They’d say you’re mine
There’d be no doubt and I’d please my man
Anytime he wanted like I know I can
He’d keep me wild, he’d know I’m strong
But he’d be by my side even when I wrong
He’d protect...
