The Torture
the pain is truly
excruciating the
cramp hard to
carry, i do it
myself, take
30+ laxatives
Hurt myself
to get rid of
the crap i ate
for some days
insane to think
i'm so tender to
others and yet
Harm myself
fucked up that
i'm a bit skinny
& want to lose
as many kilos
as is humanely
possible, to take
up little to no space

Why Bother
I've had
an urgent
appointment
with death
since i started
breathing
always walking
a very
thin line
panic grips
my hand
asking me
to dance
living inside
the dark doubts
about existing
each day dawns
pistol cocked ready
for when
self destruction
is assured
no bluff
being called here
only russian roulette
new apocalypse
explosive mind games
going boom
an urgent
appointment
with death
since i started
breathing
always walking
a very
thin line
panic grips
my hand
asking me
to dance
living inside
the dark doubts
about existing
each day dawns
pistol cocked ready
for when
self destruction
is assured
no bluff
being called here
only russian roulette
new apocalypse
explosive mind games
going boom

Lives of Poets
What makes me wonder
Is not why writers and poets
So young and old
Succumb to emptiness.
It is the lives they had lived
Under the bright sky.
Things they must have seen
To mold those words of bitterness.
From Homer’s Olympus heights
To Byron’s mountain of light.
From the banks of a gushing Nile
to the flows of the Mississippi might.
Mountains, rivers, hills, and streams
Have molded words and wondrous dreams.
Dripping blood mixed with ink
Together they form a hidden...

Not Subtle
no subtle reflections
more in your face hurricane
realising hell fire has form
honesty carries its own suffering
collective shadows bring waves of pain
so much confusion afrisesfrom darkness
addressing my worthiness to life
battles constantly fought hard
this invisible war never ending
counting against me social rules
understanding very little raises stress
buiding pressures that wont release
more in your face hurricane
realising hell fire has form
honesty carries its own suffering
collective shadows bring waves of pain
so much confusion afrisesfrom darkness
addressing my worthiness to life
battles constantly fought hard
this invisible war never ending
counting against me social rules
understanding very little raises stress
buiding pressures that wont release

trying to write out my feelings instead of cutting
anguish is flowing in red rivers beneath my skin
and it’s screaming to be let out
i couldn’t tell you where it came from
all i know is that i’m wired wrong
i wouldn’t dare try to talk to anyone beforehand
people either freak out or act annoyed
and in such a vulnerable state,
that is the cyanide of human communication
i wish someone would help me
the way i need to be helped
i usually feel stressed
numb
sad
ashamed
lonely
and overwhelmed ...

Behind Yinsel
just let go
all the pain in you
watch the blood
flow like a flood
the festive tints
over bloody footprints
circles of red
be careful where you tread
no more feeling
little actual healing
this invisible entity
has hit the limit of eternity
red alert
it's a dead cert
i think of death
with each breath
all the pain in you
watch the blood
flow like a flood
the festive tints
over bloody footprints
circles of red
be careful where you tread
no more feeling
little actual healing
this invisible entity
has hit the limit of eternity
red alert
it's a dead cert
i think of death
with each breath

Coping Mechanisms
Writing it out is wonderful
But what about when
The words dry up
And your fingers are tired
And you have no ice left to throw
The oranges are moldy
Moving the furniture
Just creates scratches on the floor
Not on your body
But what about when
The words dry up
And your fingers are tired
And you have no ice left to throw
The oranges are moldy
Moving the furniture
Just creates scratches on the floor
Not on your body

Lose Your Faith
When a thought comes in
I can’t escape it
I used to know how
I can’t make myself remember
i don’t want to do it
I can’t escape it
I used to know how
I can’t make myself remember
i don’t want to do it

Guilt, Fear And Loathing
I think it's almost time
To drop everything
And take that giant step
That takes me away from here
There's no happiness
In my life and times
Only angry words
And hateful states
It just makes me feel like
Today's the day
I have everything I need
To take me away
So what is holding me back?
Fear?
Guilt?
Maybe even hope?
I don't know why I'm thinking like this
It's an anguished thought in my head
But it's pulling me in
To drop everything
And take that giant step
That takes me away from here
There's no happiness
In my life and times
Only angry words
And hateful states
It just makes me feel like
Today's the day
I have everything I need
To take me away
So what is holding me back?
Fear?
Guilt?
Maybe even hope?
I don't know why I'm thinking like this
It's an anguished thought in my head
But it's pulling me in

Vampiric
My heart won't wait forever
And the stop
the stop the clock
is ticking
Ever closer.
The stars align at night they say
it's over.
A handful of rocks won't fix this mistake I made
and I'm making
No excuses after this
I'm open to what the cards hold.
My heart won't go forever
I'm losing the motor
and the car just
won't go.
Shaking back
Fake laughs
In a group of the classic
Pageantry
I made with my own stupid ass
Self esteem
borderline
vampiric...
