Everything is awful.
It seems when things seem better they always get worse.
Why can't life be easy.
Why can't life be grand for everyone and not just one big struggle to survive!

a routine that is getting old
when will my shell break from this mold
perhaps ill wear something bright and bold

perhaps my actions will come back to haunt
proving that i was the one who was wrong

maybe i should turn back…
maybe i should sing a song

sitting here, oh so clear,
the message and the path are near—
the work still to be done, will it take very long?

i walk on as i sing my song
the one you taught me in a dream
where we broke apart from the seams
from who we were- into the people
we were meant to be, you and me,

now it's just me, fending for myself
we grow without guidance,

no one knows the right or wrong way
and it scares me that ive lingered around

home and comfort,

maybe i shouldnt stay
maybe i should just-

get out of my own way
when your life is unclear write a poem and shed a tear

Prevailing
You were supposed to be there
Five foot three with brunette hair
With eyes that held the kind of stare
That could strip these walls down

Bring me back to ground

Sounding words out to make sure the emphasis
Is on the feeling I found I missed
Which you showed me within a kiss
That was some thing new
Temporary bliss

And now you’re this

Prospect
There’s a new perspective
Mission statements paint directives
As I dive into introspective
To make sure intents are pure

Is this intense? Well, sure...

So long a heart obscure
Feelings, malady and cure
Potent potions cause commotions
That I must endure
In an analysis of myself
So I might be worthy of the wealth
That comes in the form of a girl
Of a gift beyond this world
Coveted amongst any and all
The darkness broken by creeping dawn

A hope that you may text back
But a knowing that you’re
Gone

Laying down
Spending my time
Reading books
Browsing the internet
Watching the sun
Finally set
As my family
Sits outside
In a proper family circle
While I wait
For the night
Yay... I guess this is happening again.

One day you may love me back,
One day i may walk back into the sunshine...
Eye contact is not an option
I can’t hold a conversation
It’s basically impossible
Fitting in is not my forte
I can’t even explain
What it feels like
To NOT be able to talk
Even when you really want to
Even after hours of mental preparation
Nothing comes out
Not even a squeak
Social anxiety kinda *****
Sorry, my poetry has gotten extremely sloppy. And I’ve been facing MAJOR writers block. Any suggestions on how to get over this??

I blame myself for not being enough
Within my voids, you found her to fill
And now she owns half of your heart
To know the truth, ******* kills

Does she love you better than I do?
Does she make you feel brand new?
Does she make you feel electric?
Or give you a feeling you don’t wanna lose?

When you tell her “I love you”
And when she tells you it back
Is that what you’ve been missing?
Has she been picking up my slack?

Every day without me
Is another day with her
Maybe not psychically
But enough for you to lure

My mind is my worst enemy
It constantly mocks me of the pain
And where I went wrong along the way
It drives me ******* insane

I can’t ever forgive myself
For not loving you properly
I ruin the all the things I love
So why does this come as a shock to me?
When did we get here? I wanna do back

You came at me,
I said “Do it I ******* dare you, you *******.¨

You said something that didn’t make sense,
Everything that comes out of your mouth doesn’t make sense.

You try to be intimidating and fight me,
But you forget I’m stronger and have more strategy.

I’ve survived more things than you,
You haven’t even lived life yet.

I was addicted to Acid,
Do you even know how it feels to have something control you?

Have you ever felt like you could leave this world,
And leave all your problems here?

But always come back,
And have to deal with the same ****?

Acid became a part of me,
And I loved it!

But I changed my life around,
And now I’m bigger and stronger than I ever was.

So tell me,
Do you really want to test my patience?

I’ll knock you on your ***,
Just to show you I’m not playing around.

So do it,
I dare you.

Come at me and find out what will happen,
But you can’t blame me for what will happen to you.

Because you asked for it,
It’s your fault that your on your ***.

No more crying
No more pain
my life with tears like rain
I'm saying goodbye,
standing on my chair without fear,
With a broken heart and six bottles of beer,
drinking and thinking
about my darling dear,
i knot and tie,
I'm Ready to die,
time to jump off with all my might,
i hope it don't break even if i fight,
rope around my neck,
i double check,
hear I come
smiling with death and my last breath,
I'm your romeo and you where my juliet,
my life I can no longer fake
letting you die alone was my
biggest mistake.
