Sitting at the table
Gambling with my soul
Shitty cards between my fingers
Body growing old
Length of the days begin to shrink ...
I need one of them
Because of how I think
The screams inside the darkness
Are bone shattering and shrill
This descent into the madness
Is a fucking thrill
Swimming in the endless sea
It Cuts and burns like glass on fire
Time is ticking , fleeting
Getting down to the wire
Bottles line the beach
Pieces sting like razor blades
But The shore is always out of...

if you can’t stand then f**kin crawl
you hate this pathetic display
this disgustin weakness in yourself
yet here you are
soakin in your own misery
you worthless pile of flesh
is this what we’re doin?
get the fuck up
remember that hell knows your name
you’ve danced with demons
walked thru the god damn flames
and you’re cryin over…what?
this?
fuckin laughable
no one’s comin to save you
no one gives a damn
no one is watchin
smoke yourself to oblivion
mix whatever chemicals numb the noise
break your knuckles against concrete ...

descent
I reach thru shadows
a moment of warmth
a flame underwater
collectin light I cannot drink
I have fallen
into the space
where echoes go
to die
this is where I end
a moment of warmth
a flame underwater
collectin light I cannot drink
I have fallen
into the space
where echoes go
to die
this is where I end

The Lights
fatal mind fetal
pose dying to
find my home
afraid to feel
to hear to see
it hurts to face
it hurts to erase
the pain kills me
eats me inside
it hurts to hide
tired of fighting
& of being alive
afraid of the dark
the demons inside
the night & light it
hurts to wake up
i curl my back to
loneliness hide
inside their riffs
and cries try to
forget who i was
Archive hears me
where no one does
pose dying to
find my home
afraid to feel
to hear to see
it hurts to face
it hurts to erase
the pain kills me
eats me inside
it hurts to hide
tired of fighting
& of being alive
afraid of the dark
the demons inside
the night & light it
hurts to wake up
i curl my back to
loneliness hide
inside their riffs
and cries try to
forget who i was
Archive hears me
where no one does

Tipping The Tables On Her Past
Numbness wallows, a welcome gift
Once a vibrant soul, a hapless shift
Love forsaken, she couldn’t get a grip
She left her mind at the door and took a decades-long trip
Chaos ensued, she sunk further beneath
Her heart unraveled and fell off her sleeve
Her shrieks turned to wails as she fell on her knees
Gray skies darkened as her life became void of peace
Blow after blow bloodied her resolve to stay sane
Until the day she declared never again!
Underneath her armor it’s the truth that remains
Five years later she’s no longer in...

The Wrong Kind of Life
Spend your days wondering why you have them
Go to stores to look at the things you can’t buy
You know you’re done with how things are
It would kill your soul just to hear your heart
Tell yourself it’s all in your head
You know therapy can’t fix you now
When your friends leave you, blame yourself
“Their lives were shit because of my birth.”
Eat knowing that there is nothing real in your body
You might not even be human anymore tonight
The bones in your body are sick and contagious
Nobody would want to come near you now
...

Rainy World
The world used to feel
so beautiful.
I adapted to the rain
falling.
The tempo changed
often
with an emotional
drumming, clearing
the world, exposing
the scent of rusted oak
woods along my path.
In gilded water
drops in my hand,
The world feels so beautiful,
clutching the magic.
We get old
and the world
gets cold
and rain we use to know
is only a wet mess.
The rain I used to know
/ as magic /
is just a wet mess
of disillusionment, ...

if I tell you I'm selfish, will you leave me alone?
Come on over
wrap me up in your expectations
and then blame me
for your disappointment
when I inevitably fail
You watch me walk
trip and fall
you watch me crawl
scrabble at the walls
try and pull myself up
but you never
ever offer to help me up
I carry myself alone
while you stand over me
with tough love
that's less empathy
and more indifference
than I think you realize
I'm not looking for a saviour
I just need you to love me
through the darkness
without...

Hiding in every cell.
Doctors, scientists,philosophers have never been able to locate the human mind.
But
Depression or any other mental illness has no trouble finding it in seconds,the perfect terrorist.
So
The human mind, once located turns in on itself,causing all sorts of mental and physical havoc.
It will stay in a state of turmoil until it becomes invisible once more.
And
It will never be the same again.

Guilty bitterness
I'm supposed to be angry with you
At least that's what everyone says
Maybe i hold you in a light
Whilst sulking in the dark
How can I be angry
When it was my mistake?
I'm supposed to be angry for me
Constantly being reminded
That what you declared was cruel
But i can't help the pedestal
That i hold for you in spite
Of what you said
I make excuses for you
Create poems and art of you
Understanding why you spoke
Those ruthless words of fault
And accept the blame
With my...

my brain is like a broken carnival ride
I told myself I'd stop writing angsty shit
because I'm so tired of this
misery-go-round in my head
Another day, another mental wall
and I'm stuck staring at the
nothingness I feel
without any solutions
on how to get around it
over it or under it
I need more than this
barren horizon of emptiness
that promises something
but delivers nothing
I told myself I'd stop writing angsty shit
because I'm so tired of this
misery-go-round in my head
but here I am again
breaking promises...
