Little girl
Little girl
Stupid as can be
Holding onto things that aren't real

Little girl
Little girl
Look around and see
With all you hide, there's nothing you conceal

They, who seek
to drag you down
are, themselves,
already below you.

David Ian Go
My mind is in a state of panic,
My world just turned psychedelic
Like all is lost in pure confusion
It's like my mind is in delusion.

Now, all I see is black and white,
All I hear are moans and cries
I come to ask myself, oh why?
but all I say are stupid lies.

This might sound crazy, yes it might
but I have no choice, I wonder why.
I might be in love with someone I despise
'cause all she says are beautiful lies.

Quietly she sits surrounded by the buzzing of people
are those whispers about her?
...no they can't be, but what if they are?
is it her outfit, her hair, is is something she did, something she said?
of coarse not, she is just a normal girl
...quiet but normal
but oh how she wishes to be normal
to be free of the constant worries
to no longer endure this fear that is eating her up inside
to no longer be consumed by this plague known as anxiety
to be happy
to be normal

Six weeks strong
Wounds have healed
Tried to stop an addiction
But became so unhappy
Thoughts became worse
More pessimistic
Demons won't stop pestering
Self hatred grew stronger
Turned to the pain
Knowing that it is just an illusion
Thinking it would help escape
The struggles of life
Relapsed; 6 weeks being clean went down the drain.
Not the best poem I have ever written but I just had to let it out.

i  envy your pillow
it lets you
rest your head on it
while i can't

i envy your cup,
it kisses your lips
tasting yours,
while i just stare at it,

i envy your blanket
it covers your skin
it touches every bit of you
while i can't

i envy your clothes
it touches your skin
every corner of it
every flaw
while i'm sitting here

In a cup or a glass, a bottle or a flask
Liquid courage masquerades as personality
Everyone wants to be someone else sometime
So choose a poison and swallow inhibitions
Be that someone, or someone else
Control is an illusion
Courage cannot be purchased or consumed
Bluffing affability through a counterfeit life
Found in a cup or a glass, a bottle or a flask
