Spiraling

I'm spiraling

Can't eat

Can't sleep

Can't breathe

Imagining things

What do I do with your rings...?

Weep.... sink... hallucinate... repeat..

Take a break.. fall apart.

I gave you all of me, but you tore me apart

I tried too hard; you left me with a broken heart

I almost relapsed the night you walked away

Kinda shocked I'm still here today

I still see you at school

Thought you meant it when you said forever

Guess I was a fool

..I miss when talking to you was a matter of when...

Not whether

Your image still sits
under the red traffic lights
On the other side.

And to watch you whilst
Dancing between the painted
Lines of pedestrian lane,

Your scent left me unmoved.
And to your unnoticed tears
That fell beneath the concrete.

To be chosen by your smile
might be the ugliest way to
Say goodbye to this ugly world.

We could both leave this place,
Cure you over the stars
And be at the moon but

You kissed the dust,
and bled the pavements -
And no one came to save us.
If my poems can put your suicidal thoughts down,
I keep on being a writer.
(even if I'm not.)

I'll keep on finding
the very best metaphors.
(Sorry, I know they're not.)

Sedari kecil, aku mendambakan sepasang sayap di belakang punggung.

Ingin aku arungi langit yang melintang dengan bebas. Ingin aku jelajahi awan yang seperti gumpalan kapas. Ingin aku miliki sepasang sayap agar anganku lepas.

Burung-burung yang mengambang melantunkan tawa bahagia. Ketika aku menengadah, pandangan mereka jatuh menimpa iris jelaga. "Kenapa kamu tidak terbang?" kicauan mereka membentuk kalimat tanya.

"Aku ingin, tapi takdir menyuruh aku menapaki tanah," timpalku sedikit berteriak.

Burung-burung tertawa, melingkari kepalaku dengan serangkai gelak. Aku termenung, menatap sayap-sayap yang terbang menjauh.

Andai aku bisa terbang, akan aku susul mereka yang mengambang. Akan aku lintasi awan sampai berlubang. Akan aku imbangi laju mereka tanpa secuil bimbang.

Sayangnya, aku tidak bisa terbang.

Aku cuma bisa menengadah, menatap biru dan biru dan biru yang membentang. Aku pandangi tirai biru sampai warnanya bergeser jadi abu.

Siang yang biru diganti malam yang kelabu. Mirip seperti mimpi-mimpi yang dengan cepat menjadi semu.

Pikirku, sedari dulu mimpiku selalu gagal bertaruh. Mungkin aku terlalu belagu? Terlalu banyak menaruh harap pada hidup?

Aku berusaha maklum, berdamai dengan gagal yang mengikuti aku seperti hantu. Namun, terbang seperti burung adalah satu-satunya mimpi yang tidak mau aku buat luruh.

Aku ingin terbang, menyapa semilir angin yang menerpa wajah. Aku ingin terbang, merangkai kapas di atas awan untuk menutup luka.

Aku ingin terbang. Aku ingin terbang. Aku ingin damai datang ketika tubuhku melayang di udara.

Maka, kepada Tuhan yang tinggalnya jauh di atas semesta, aku mohon dengan amat sangat agar aku bisa terbang.

Aku menaiki undakan, menatap gemerlap kota yang mengimitasi kawanan kunang-kunang. Kedua tangan aku rentangkan, berharap Tuhan menjahit sayap yang kilau gemilang. Aku melompat, menantang kelam yang memenuhi langit malam.

Aku terbang.
i cant even lie I was going to **** myself last night
You pulled me from my head and made everything all right.
You made my life make sense, put everything in line,
I laid back down again, everything seemed fine.

today I went through motions, tired and devoid of emotions
my brain was wrongly wired, it was you that i admired.
I wish you could've helped me
I wish you had known.
set my stupid mind free, all my worries flown.
i thought i was getting better...

I wrote suicide notes like love letters,
Maybe a bit too much.
Maybe a bit too often,
With those depressing words and such.

I wrote suicide notes like love letters,
Carefully chose every word.
Desperately trying to tell you,
That to me you meant the whole world.

I wrote suicide notes like love letters,
It almost felt like a crime.
Put my pen down like a weapon,
And glance at you one last time.
i wrote way too many of those

...
numb and drained
life is being ****** from me
its vibrant colors slowly fading to gray
leaving me empty

life has no meaning
i'm not living this way
only existing because im a coward
afraid to throw it all away

a pull of a trigger
a swipe of a knife
small simple things
to end my life

this isn't a plea
no i don't want your sympathy
go take it and use it
for someone other than me

An old friend,
I'd call him,
The way we both want each other,
And yet timing keeps us apart.

It's not yet time,
Even when I want it shortened,
So I tease,
I provoke.

His a patient friend,
Who takes his time,
It's saddening,
But next time I'll make you move.

Next time,
I will win,
It's a matter of time,
Before we meet death.....

He's getting high again —
Negotiations with death, again
Says it quiets the suicidal thoughts

Survival needs no explanation —


Not to me
Not
To
Me


I'm ******* in my own...

Do I suffer?
Everything I do, I do wrong.
I can’t even get help.
I want to manifest my pain—
to bleed into your vision,
to force you to see me.

I hate that I’m an inconvenience.
I hate that I could be a problem.
I hate that I cause offense.
But please, please see me.

I need to be loud.
I need to be heard.
I need to be seen.
Please—
just see me.

I’m sorry to ruin your day.
I’m hurting too.
****.
I hate myself.
I might do it.
I might finally show you.

My last laugh:
the silence shatters.
I will finally be remembered.
You can’t ignore this.

i want to cut again
make pretty little lines
i want to take the razor
and make it my demise

i want to cut again
watch the red pour
i want to cut my legs
behind a closed door

see, i used ro cut daily
before my friends found out
i made another promise
"what was that about?"

my parents used to yell at me
my friends used to try
the worst reaction that i got
was seeing Moonbeam cry

i want to cut again
now that moon is gone
i want to hurt again
its really been too long.
guess what? im 7 days clean.
