My Reaction
Eden Y Hamden Apr 2024
don't
don't ever assume
my "overreaction"
you don't know what happened
for me to react
the way I did
so
sit still
and don't
ever
assume
my reaction

Never

I always want to be forward
but no one would let me
say it would hurt you
and I never want to hurt you

Around Me
Eden Y Hamden Jul 2023
and tell me how
I cannot be comfortable
in my own skin,
the skin I was born in

I look around me
and I feel envious,
envious
of how
everyone walks around
carrying themselves

Hate
Eden Y Hamden Nov 2022
your ******* condescending laugh
your sarcastic tone
I hate them
I hate so many things
about you now
I wonder how long it's gonna
take til I hate
you as a whole.

They say
home
is where
the heart is
but
if my heart is with you
then,
where does that
leave me...?

Unfair
Eden Y Hamden Sep 2023

put on this earth
to recieve
more pain
than love.
Now...

just sad

Fake smiles
fake laughs
does anyone notice that I'm sad?
bruised fists
abused wrists
does anyone notice that I'm going mad?
overthinks
never thinks
does anyone notice that it's that bad?
no words
used swords
you'll never know where I stand
fake smiles
fake laughs
this is not what I had planned

Everything about Everyone
Eden Y Hamden Jul 2023
let me watch
all the little things
you do
the way your eyes crinkle
when you laugh
the way your dimples pop
when you smile
the way you hug so warmly
the way you scrunch your nose
let me watch how you move your hands
when you explain to me
something you are passionate about
let me ask you questions
no one has ever asked before
let me hear what your answers will be
because I wanna know
everything about everyone

Mama
Eden Y Hamden Feb 2024
Did you
hear my heart break
when I sat beside you
while you were telling
your life story

that was
one of the moments
where I felt
my heart break
like
๐’ถ๐’ธ๐“‰๐“Š๐’ถ๐“๐“๐“Ž break

The first time
had something to do with you
but,
this time
this time was different
because this time
I felt helpless
because this time
I couldn't do anything
except
hear you cry

I Thought

thought it was over
thought I would love life
but I hate it even more
I love people
but I don't love
myself anymore

Bullet Holes
Eden Y Hamden Sep 2024
they say I should forgive him
that no matter what happens in life
he's still my dad
and whatever things
he has said to me
he didn't mean them
or that he just simply
forgot
that whatever wounds
he left me I should just
cover up
put a bandaid
they say
but I tell them
bandaids
don't fix bullet holes

Anger
Eden Y Hamden Nov 2022
if I'm being honest,
there's this anger
inside of me
all the time.
sometimes it's light
and I don't feel it, but
other times
I can't control it
sometimes, I let it out
on people
then it becomes worse.
this anger...
itย never goes away
it's always here
it's tainting my heart
but sometimes,
I like this anger
it makes me feel empowered
it makes me feel strong
it makes me feel like I have
something to fight for,
like I have people to fight for
my anger is towards
the opposite

Time
Eden Y Hamden Sep 2023
I hate it
because
I don't know if I want
time to move faster
or to stop altogether
everyday
is a repetition
of the day before
I hate living as much
as the person
I'm becoming

If Depression Were Me
Eden Y Hamden Jun 17
if depression were me
it would paint me
blood red
and
raven black
where my body
is the canvas and
the colors are
my thoughts

if depression were to talk
it would scream at me
that I am
falling behind
and that
I am not inclined

if depression were me
it would beg me to
to leave me
behind

but, I donโ€™t stand still
long enough
to be painted over
