your worthless and terrible
an empty shell
who's walked this earth
for far too long
winter Apr 2020
Every day
Feels like another test
To see how much more I can take
winter Oct 2020
I’m scared
I don’t want to meet someone 10 years
in the future and have to do it all over. Who I am now is important.
Who I was in my childhood is so important.
I’m terrified of being so infinitely unknown
I just want to feel home
in someone or just somewhere
I wish 'childhood trauma' didn’t have to ******* up
so bad
years down the line.
Will it affect me forever?
Will it linger as a part of me forever?
Will it one day be so painfully insignificant that
I can move on with my life like everybody else?
Is that what I want?

to claim the biology of desire
is to acknowledge desire’s presence
wisdom will get you nowhere, silly

It isnt too late for compassion
And it isnt too late for hope
You from the city
Who comes from peace
Knows no difference
Between land and borders
I come from the coldwar
I come from plains
And I've seen the real need
To be unified
To be free

im just
2 cool i guess
winter Oct 2021
now that i am older i can say
that i was always meant to be this way
winter Mar 2022
i guess im picturing my death again
this time it feels real
i can see the reactions
of those i love most
the timing seems perfect
its scary
winter Mar 2022
everybody would have seen it coming
i've been waiting my whole life to die

My instagram
flows and flows
pictures and snapshots
at the top of a waterfall
ready for flight
raining down in full
relentless
I do not write when I am happy
I do not write when I am okay
I cannot capture security with words
I take pictures
Here is my cat,
Here is a latte,
Here are my friends,
Here is a cool tree
that reminded me of the one
that stood in the field
of my elementary school
That I cherished and loved
They cut that one down
I couldn't show you a picture
But this one looks quite like it,
don't you see?
And so they flow
Outweighing the scraps
of my written despairs
pouring like paint
to color my memory
of things
that are good
and things
that are okay
into the feeds
the scrolls of squares
they flow
winter Aug 2019
fearful, regretfully human side
of which I decide
to indulgence in my youth,
or to maintenance
of my stone body
Will I live
or Will I breathe
winter Oct 2021
momma i'm in the living room
listening to you cry again
momma i miss you
except for when you call
don't tell me you love me
just look after your son
stay calm, momma
the stars will come

"this is a lonely experience"
I say when
I study blades of grass or cracks in the walls
When I'm so angry that I cry or when
I truly feel like dying
I repeat that to myself when
I'm reading untouched books
Or feeling affectionate for my friends
Far moreso, I think, than they would reciprocate
Love outpoors from me and I feel so alone
It is lonely to love

But I've halted those words
With a change of heart
Realizing I was never alone
Future or past, there are people out there
At least, so I hope, who feel the same things as I
They might mark my words, or perhaps never know, but wonder the same
Was there ever someone like me
Someone whose words are untouched
I wish i could reach through time and tell them
The experience isn't lonely

This is a human experience

hypocrisy is a beautiful phenomena
that humans can't help but indulge in

who knows me most
knows me not
it is clear,
she knows me not
he knows me not
and collectively
they know nothing

the end of the universe visits me each night and whispers the consequence of sleep
the dark, like a blanket, drapes itself over
the ashes of all we grieve
this bed where i lay, once soft and serene now threatens a place to be burried
consciousness drifts as i draw my last breathe, and what's left is this thriftless worry
i'd like to wake up, and i'd like to live on
but the end of time each day comes
i wish i could've saved all those who are gone
but the pain eventually numbs
winter Jan 2020
save me
cut me open
winter Nov 2019
I am a vessel
for what, I do not know
winter Jan 2020
mother gets a call from my sister
I head to the bathroom
And scratch at my face
In my reflection
Nervous habit
Something else had been altered
winter Aug 2019
When I leave,
I don’t have to take you with me
twist it again
I can be unforgiving
In spite of your presumptions
of which you have too many
Our time together is limited
winter Mar 2020
I'd rather evaporate
winter Jun 2020
I want to make lifelong friends
And hold them close to my heart
I am grimly
And often preach my solitude
It is the strength I portray
In hopes of ironically drawing in
The affections of those who need
That sort of reliance
winter Dec 2019
how can I live blindly
are they hiding the fact
that there is nothing to see
winter Sep 2020
I think very often of our pain
I think very often. why can't we care for each other
What is it that stops us
What is it that holds me back from holding you and holding them
and what stops them from letting go
letting go
To give up
and give your hand
and live instead
and live with compassion
winter Sep 2020
o god o let me find you
in this time where you are buried
so far beneath and
all I can hope to do is guard the soil
let me lay over the ice top
not to warm it from the outside
but to let my silhouette be present to you
you who are so far below
this premature hibernation
with no telling of when the ice will crack
and when the ice will break for you
you who are free on the inside
and I
trapped on the outside
I will be here the moment you return
I will be here every moment before then
If only to be a reassurance to you
beneath my feet like an earthquake that I know someday is bound to happen
even if there really is no telling
I know you are there and
I know that you will find me too
winter Nov 2019
my worst fear
is to remain conscious
after death
that's how I'm feeling now
winter Jan 2020
The medicine works for *******
I've seen it do worse
To my friends in the ward
If you've found your freedom,
*******
winter Jun 2022
i dont belong anywhere
i need to go
winter May 2021
i think i'm starting to overcome it
I can love life, accept death, and believe
there's nothing after
all at once
winter Oct 2021
i know that i'm lonely
but i know i'm a dreamer
my projections of longing
are merely my hypotheses
a demonstration
of my understanding
of love
winter Sep 2020
I'm tired
I'm cold
What did I just take
You haven't replied to my texts in days
All I want is to be better for you
Why can't you just say something to my face
winter Nov 2021
smells of love
feels of hurt
winter Mar 2019
Weep me into an orbit
secure my warmth into it
Elevated, tremble me still
Lifting my legs into the air
And completely releasing the ground
Most comforting coldness
Welcomes me to a void
An inter-clashing of hollow and heart
I see nothing before me
I feel nothing beneath me
Moving only relatively to you
But the air between us bends
My bones feel crisp
When energy evolves into matter
Experiencing, for the first time,
Negative space
Seeing what nothingness lies before me
The acceptance
Ensuring calamity’s deference
I’ll be there
May I be still but I am moving
You see me here
Mightful in collision and clamour
Which rings so silently
That my breathing sounds greater
I long to be there
To dissipate into light
Become a pull in the tide
Warp everything inside
Regenerating my new birth
Fulfilled by the presence of lacuna
i want to be consumed by a black hole
winter Aug 2019
I'm told to think of a man
and I think of your jaw
I think of the thinness of your lips
This is how it goes
The sigh was grand and my body was whole
It says that I miss you,
that your arms wrapped well
around my back, under my legs
I'm found burdened by the yearning
My eyes want to well and tear
But the sting shifts into anger
It has always been anger with you,
on my own accord
the act I got caught up in
The challenge of sweetness,
testing my faux purity's limits
It was never your fault,
Call yourself a monster, maybe I'll oppose you
maybe I'll spend hours reminding you of your heart
you Inglorious *******
I have a catch, an idea, for your ego
Tell yourself that you ruined me
Remind yourself each day
that you are the beast who broke my heart
It's pathetic
I didn't need you for that
I once thought that you were only my reminder
that a love like yours didn't exist for people like me
But I was wrong
I always knew
But I got lost in the distraction
I lost my dearest love in your pursuit
You, who cursed me with your affairs
You, who mocked me with secret lovers
You, who tormented me with my own time
Strangle me with expectation,
Raising the heat, raising the tension
Make me useless, make me kind
Make me pointless, make me kind
Make me silent, mute, garbage
Make me completely deteriorate
Spouting intuition translated into madness
I cannot remember 3 months ago to 15
my mind's last attempt to spare me
from the constant & pulsating misery
that was thinking of you
You were not a lesson
You were not worth it,
You were not worth the "wisdom"
Nothing was gained, only wasted
No matter created, only destroyed
You reduced me with a single hand
to dull and ***** rubble
Ready for you to walk over
crush me slightly with your weight
place your footprint
mark where you've been
It wasn't worth it
Not after a period of silence
For you to show your face unwarranted
You mistook me for a pleasant encounter
You should have known better
After it all
After it all
After it all
You have no right to speak to me this way
After it all
I'm still writing poems about you
It's embarrassing
I'm humiliated
It wasn't worth it
You were not worth it
I think of a man,
I think of my greatest waste of time

I went downstairs
And my mother gave me a strange look
She heard a thud & assumed
I'd hanged myself
I can see myself dangling
But that never happened
I dont know how to tie a noose
My friend texted me
Saying she had a dream that I died
She asked me if I was alive
I sure thought I was
I've been time-hopping
A lot more this month
I really have been
Getting my own timeline mixed up
I'll accidentally slip into the past
Red brick and pink nails
Or I'll feel myself experiencing the future too early
That means I have yet to live, doesnt it?
Or does it mean I have been spared?
Does God know that I've begun
to reconsider His presence?
Or is it another force that mocks me
And dangles me on this thread
For yet another day
I lit a candle today
The flame felt cursed

need me a guy
who photoshops in a fringe

winter Sep 2019
“I don’t know, but I feel it”
I don’t know, but I feel it
I don’t know, but I feel it
his head on my chest
he can’t fool me
he doesn’t know me
doesn’t know anything
but he knows how to hold me
his hands around my back
if that’s what he’s feeling,
I’m feeling it too
or that’s what my lips are telling him
he doesn’t know me,
but he knows how I breathe
doesn’t care that I sing
for a living
or that I’m living
and some days it doesn’t feel
like I’m living at all
but this boy is internal
he’s reminding my soul
of the body attached to it
detaching it from him
and he pulls me right back
and it’s over for me
for the boy who never knew
and only felt me
something else
stripped of art
I had to force myself apart
winter Aug 2022
it wasnt that
animalistic, choking
raw death that read about
and call the hard, real truth
it was unearthly,
it was paranormal
like a demon holding her
up by the throat
and slamming her down
twisting her limbs
and trying to escape from her insides
it was
a horror scene
but more cold
more violent
there was no reason
for it to happen that way
at that time in the morning
i can still hear it
i can still see it
i can still smell it
i am bending over her as we speak

To all my friends posting about how 'for the first time, christmas doesn't feel the same'.........................
...... cringe
winter Aug 2019
yeah the dread is a little bit completely overwhelming
the famous daves billboard gives me a lot of anxiety
I watched a youtube video about "haunted" instagram posts
humanity has allowed all of this to happen
it's so ****** weird
humans are the weirdest ******* coincidence
maybe I need to listen to a different playlist
cut off this train of thought as abruptly possible
block it out until I die
that's what I've been doing this whole time, yeah?
winter Aug 2019
tell me, and i tell you
here i go again, i'll slip, just for you
let's try this again
accuse me of the upper hand
with one look you demand your distance
but I'm just like you,
you haven't been there yet is all
I'll be there when the time comes
for now, I'm okay with pretending
daily occurrences and days and people in general are a pain
winter Aug 2019
being suicidal was fine
since there was always that option
but now, that I don't want to die?
there's no way out of it
it's a little bit cruel, how that works
winter Feb 2020
Your lover isnt right
Your lover is simple
Your lover will whither
In the presence of you
With the weight of you
When you enter the air
They wish they were
The air, too
And they'll only whither
And you'll only watch

— The End —
