Too Soon
ok okay Apr 2024
I saw your eyes wander out the window
Watching the daisies dancing in the breeze
Autumn came too soon
Now all I see are fallen leaves
199 · Sep 2019
Forever Red
ok okay Sep 2019
Black boots
Black dress
Black eyes
Black hair
But you bleed forever red
Let us be forever..
196 · Feb 2024
Lost
ok okay Feb 2024
Scattered rain
A midnight sky
My words have been lost
Lost in your eyes
196 · Apr 2021
Untitled
ok okay Apr 2021
Scarlet like the veins that bled
I sought out the demons in my head
What I want will not come
Only slumber will let me succumb
ok okay Oct 2019
It was so utterly calm outside today
The weather was lacking
And the sky was grey
No rain or sun
Maybe the sky was feeling numb
Although sleep will come
Flickering lights
The TV knows night
Eyes seduced by its temperament
Out goes my light
195 · Mar 2019
Not a poem(book?)
ok okay Mar 2019
I have been writing a book for a while now about the issues of the human race and personal issues that me and many others have faced. I havent found a site to publish it yet, however if i were to find a website which anyone could view from, would anyone like to see what I have written so far? Put a lot of effort into writing this so, it would be good to get some advice, ty peoples :)))
195 · Sep 2024
Disappear
ok okay Sep 2024
The world looked blurry
Like a background in a movie
All I could see was you
But once I closed my eyes
I awoke alone in my room
Sometimes life flashes before your eyes
ok okay Feb 2024
Picture perfect eyes
Silent little lies
A tender touch
Losing love
A lost lullaby
Desolate dreams
Slumber fell in empty sheets
Naive and twenty-nine
It was not meant to be
The rainfall came and spoke to me
To let me rest and put me to sleep
It was not meant to be
193 · Dec 2020
The Lies we Tell
ok okay Dec 2020
Some people see it
The pain in their eyes
In the corner of their smile
And the politeness of their lies
Because they know the feeling too
So they smile back
And tell their own lies

How would anyone really know if the wounds don't bleed
The wounds never heal if they have no chance to speak


So, for tonight I will drift away in my dreams..
192 · Apr 2020
Scrolling Through Life
ok okay Apr 2020
Scrolling through my words
I thought I said too much
But maybe it was not enough

Scrolling through our pictures
I thought this could be forever
But deep down I knew it could not

Scrolling through my life
It only takes a few flicks
One day it was okay
The next it was not
Or maybe it was never okay
191 · Mar 2021
Thoughts to ash
ok okay Mar 2021
Lackluster eyes and SSRIS
Thoughts turn to ash
When anxiety thrives
The raging fire never ends
Until there is nothing left to burn
The mind is like a forest
That can be burned down to a crisp
191 · Oct 2022
Few and Far Between
ok okay Oct 2022
My eyes wandered onto a lonely highway
Only a few headlights remained
They dawdled like fireflies in a midnight sky
Moments like these are few and far between
But when these occur, I feel alive
I can dream
191 · Nov 2023
Inconsequential
ok okay Nov 2023
Inconsequential
Were the words he spoke
At least that is what she thought
Whilst the cold air whispered to her to go
190 · Feb 2021
The Sun Always Rises
ok okay Feb 2021
Within dreams we can run
But hide we cannot
As we awake with the sun
And must always get up

I may be young
But I still feel pain
The type of pain that awakes with the sun
I see my hopes and goals
They are framed in my mind
Like pictures
They only show what I wish I could find
Of happier days
With my friends around me
My ink could help lives and let my dreams free

Within dreams the stars shine
Where the clouds cease to exist
We can run
But not hide
As the sun always rises
188 · Jan 2020
If I Took Your Shadow
ok okay Jan 2020
Shadows do not discriminate
They stay and change
Sometimes they go away
Hide in the darkest nights
And live in the brightest days

If I took your shadow
I could not tell
If you were black or white
Had scars
Tattoos
Or hair that was blue
Our form is more or less the same

If I saw your shadow again
I wonder
Could I tell you apart?
185 · Mar 2024
Where I Lay
ok okay Mar 2024
Where I lay
Flowers grow
They tell me things that no one knows
Under the stars
I dream upon
This soil will hold me and not let go
Petals fall with the sullen rain
They kiss my skin
As I slip away
Beyond this soil and the stars
I find what I have been looking for
184 · Jul 2019
Sane Enough
ok okay Jul 2019
Love doesn't help with the pain
It has just kept me sane enough to know I need drugs
183 · Jun 2019
When the Night Owls Awaken
ok okay Jun 2019
The night owls awaken once the sun retreats
The midnight sky greets them and cools the summer heat
Even through the silence of voices and stillness of air
The rhythm of their heartbeat stays constant and near
Each breath reminds them that more breathing is to come
This constant reminder makes them want to feel numb
182 · Mar 2020
Buried in the Subconscious
ok okay Mar 2020
These words don't always come
Sometimes they don't even appear
But they are there
Buried in the subconscious
Color is easy to write about

'Roses are pretty
And violets are blue
The stars look lovely too'

But what is fading is ignored
Death is sad
And wilted roses turn grey
Soon enough they will be thrown away
Just like everything else
We will all be discarded
These words
These thoughts
Which are buried so deep
Will be taken to our grave
179 · Mar 2024
Silence
ok okay Mar 2024
In silence I fall
Into the endless abyss
177 · Jul 2019
Flower bed
ok okay Jul 2019
There are flowers on my duvet covers
I guess you could say that I sleep in a flower bed
177 · Aug 2022
When the mind wanders
ok okay Aug 2022
The mind wanders
Towards the empty blue
Even in winter
Some flowers bloom
Soft pinks and oranges show not all life is lost
A few remaining cicadas buzz while tuis sing their songs
The grass is still green
Sometimes it rains for days
Leaving puddles to glisten when night becomes day
The sun beckons
Not yet too harsh
The mind wanders on this type of day
It is moments like these when the pain fades away
175 · Mar 2024
Another Page
ok okay Mar 2024
Another page has turned
Yet somehow things just feel the same
This ink never seems to last
It always seems to run away
174 · Feb 2024
Untitled
ok okay Feb 2024
Nothing lasts forever
Some things will never feel the same
Soon the lush greens will fade away
The cicadas will make their bed
Hollow will be the falling sky
As I face existential dread
But soon enough
Summer will return
As if the sun had never left
172 · Jan 2024
Hope to See You Again
ok okay Jan 2024
There she lay
Between the Earth and the clouds
Asking the stars 'Please let me down'
Floating away as the thoughts left her head
She only wondered what would be if
And what would come next
As she left past the clouds and the marble-white moon
She felt the cold of the void
No more beautiful blue
Past the vast and small spheres
She drifted for miles
Empty and alone
Until the stars found her eyes
She turned around and saw the heavenly view
Sometimes we just gotta appreciate what we have, as hard as it can be. Life is beautiful, even though sometimes it feels like we are slipping away.
ok okay Jul 2020
When they don't know
The way the wind blows
Nothing but their breathing flows
Their mind takes them where they want to go
But deep down
Beneath their shallow insecurities
Lies something truly horrible
Their deepest darkest sadness shows
And its hurts so much
Because their empty apologies are just words for show
They think they are okay
But they are not
I am not okay
But at least that I know
im so so sad and the people i thought i could talk to were actually the ones who ended up hurting me the most.
171 · Mar 2021
Patch Me Together
ok okay Mar 2021
Patch me together
With staples on skin
I'll be your puzzle
If you fix me
You win
Start with my heart
It's much easier to fix
My mind is a problem
It should not exist
Please don't let me leave
The hollow darkness awaits
I think if I fall one more time
I may never escape
Hold me together
With your arms around me
I'll love you forever
For as long as time can be
171 · Aug 2019
Somebody Save Me
ok okay Aug 2019
Addicted to breathing
Each day goes the same
My heart is fading
And my soul is turning grey
Somebody save me
Before my mind goes astray
I am tired of hiding
Will you lend me your faith?
Thought of this while listening to music, goes to a rhythm, i wna write a song
170 · May 2019
True to my Imagination
ok okay May 2019
Can anyone be true to themselves?
Or can we just be true to the person we think we are
167 · Jul 2019
Life is a Game
ok okay Jul 2019
You cut me out of your life
So I cut myself
Blades always knew me like no one else

Band aids could never stick
Just like those who I called close
Fantasies arose about my suicide notes

Time became slower
I loved to feel numb
Pain is too much for a small heart to overcome

Life is a game
Which nobody wins
Except those who are blessed with ignorance
idk
166 · Feb 2020
Tell Me Your Secrets
ok okay Feb 2020
Tell me your secrets
I might tell you a lie
Talk to me slowly
I might tell you im fine
Inject me with poison
So my brain feels numb
Make me dumber and dumber
Till my mind succumbs
165 · Aug 2019
What's Your Name
ok okay Aug 2019
As subtle as a sun shower
My tears become one with rain
Loosely connected dreams hold my love letters are bay
All I ever wanted
Was to know your name
I guess I'll have to ask you on another day
165 · May 2019
Smile for a While
ok okay May 2019
I can't be happy
Because every time I smile
I know i'm going to be sad again
165 · Jun 2019
Sometimes
ok okay Jun 2019
Sometimes I just want to **** myself
But then I realize that myself doesn't even know what I want
ononono
159 · Mar 2024
Blue
ok okay Mar 2024
The impact you had
If only you knew
I got lost in your troubles
Now I sit alone in my room
157 · Jan 2020
You Can See It In My Hair
ok okay Jan 2020
Life is fading
You can see it in my hair
This hair dye does not last long enough
These pills just slow down time

You say this sadness is just a common phase
I will be aight by twenty-five
But I do not know
Life is too slow
Until the years have disappeared
And then you wonder where it has all gone
157 · Feb 2021
Hazel
ok okay Feb 2021
How can I tell her
That sometimes I wish I was dead
I could tell everyone else
About the thoughts in my head
But when her red lips meet mine
There is not a single thought in my mind
How could I inflict my sadness
To her sweet hazel eyes
I love you..
156 · Aug 2024
Hold Phone Sideways
ok okay Aug 2024
Grey has become of the sky                     Blue has taken control of the sky
Bewitching the street lights below            Alluring the birds below

Empty sidewalks                                       Buzzing sidewalks            
Crowded clouds                                         One single lonely cloud
This must be a dream                                This must be a dream
I feel empty                                                 I feel complete
Absent                                                  ­        Present
Is this to be alive                                          Is this to be alive

I can not see the diamonds up above        I can see the diamonds up above
It is lonely here outside                               It is lovely here outside
This day felt dreary                                    This day felt joyful
The night feels numb                                 This night feels sympathetic
Unlike the crowded clouds                        Like the blue sky
Hollow is my mind                                    Fulfilled is my mind

Grey has become of the sky                      Blue has taken control of the sky
Bewitching my sunken eyes                      Alluring my hopeful eyes
Hold phone sideways
156 · Nov 2018
Life
ok okay Nov 2018
Some people only want to live
When they are about to die
Not everyone thinks this, but a lot do... So many people have regrets when they are old and want to relive their life. When people are young they just want to die.
156 · Sep 2021
Ghost Stuck in Time
ok okay Sep 2021
With absence in his mind
A ghost was stuck in time
Raindrops were his tears
The empty mirror was his fear
He was not dead
Nor alive
He had not lived
Nor had he died
155 · Jan 2023
Untitled
ok okay Jan 2023
The only thing worse than silence
Is being utterly alone
154 · Apr 2024
Silence is my Misery
ok okay Apr 2024
I have not found peace for a while
Even when it rains
My hands still shake
I am not scared of the world
I am scared of myself
And the complexities my mind faces
Dreams are no longer my solitude
They are horrors that leave me no escape
I can find chaos anywhere
Even beyond your brightest smile
Below my feet from where I tread
The soil grounds me and consumes my  voice
Sometimes thoughts feel so close
Yet words feel so far away
And so silence becomes my misery
Freedom seems too abstract to be true
Maybe I am just too harsh on myself
Or too selfish to this world
There is beauty here
Beneath the stars
We do not have to look so far away
When my heart beats out of my chest
I must remember that everything will be okay
154 · Oct 2024
Take Me There
ok okay Oct 2024
Swerving by the stars
Moonlight in my eyes
Could you take me to infinity?
I just lost my mind
Darkness all around me
But these diamonds shining bright

Could you take me to infinity?
Together we could lose our minds
:)
152 · Jul 2020
Blank
ok okay Jul 2020
As blank as the page in front of me
My mind took me where I wanted to be
151 · Aug 2020
Finding Another
ok okay Aug 2020
The thoughts
The fears
The runaway tears
Lost in infinity
I try find someone who cares
From chaos
To madness
And back to a deep breath
I wonder
And wander
Through my mental mess
Its scary
But lovely
In the most wonderful way
How we try find another
Who wont go away
151 · Jul 2022
Untitled
ok okay Jul 2022
Six like-minded people
All in one room
A revolver on the table
What will we do
149 · Jun 2020
There She Lay
ok okay Jun 2020
There she lay
Shrouded in the darkness off his mind
Her eyes were as bright as the moon
She had nothing to hide
I think there was a spark
He felt a warmth from within
But the light eventually succumb
And his mind went back to numb
Gonna write a story yay
148 · Feb 2024
Reborn
ok okay Feb 2024
Silent is the setting sun
Forever fields where my mind runs
A sudden rush and scarlet skies
Where eyes wander and time flies by
The moon soon will beckon
As if doom impends
The stars died long ago
But their light transcends
Time will filter and slowly mend
I wander through this starry night
The lights above me take my sight
Consumed by chaos
My wings will form
And take me to where I will be reborn
148 · Aug 2021
Untitled
ok okay Aug 2021
Words unlock the gateway
To the deepest thoughts of our mind
147 · Oct 2022
Luminous
ok okay Oct 2022
Luminous she was
My glance met her eyes
An intensity so strong
I could not smile
Even if I tried
So still was the world
when your lips met my skin
It could be the end
Or just the beginning
But for now, let's just kiss
