I loathe

Leslie

Loathe to close my eyes
Petrified to have them open
Pain is never forgotten
Nightmares of visions I wish to forget

I sit day after day
Reliving it over and over
I reach for alcohol..to much alcohol...
Thinking I want to survive....

Wishing I was stronger
Able to overcome it

It’s My Time

Ian Yahnke

01 Nov, 2017 01:29 AM
Laying in my bed 
Just lost in my head 

Staring at these walls 
And wishing I was dead

I feel so stressed 
And I feel so depressed 

I wish I could remember 
When I last got some rest

Lost.

Ian Yahnke

Oh my god 
I wanna fucking die 

I'm lost in the sky 
Why do I even try 

Yeah I get drunk  
And yeah I get high

Every time you see me
I’ve got bloodshot eyes

Wandering

Ian Yahnke

01 Nov, 2017 01:26 AM
I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say  

Just wish that I could figure out
What makes me feel this way 

I try to move, try to run 
Try to change, get nothing done

Stay in bed, but I don’t sleep
Only move when I need to eat

Hidden Pains

John Collins

30 Oct, 2017 12:17 PM
The tear-drops fall off her nose,
when she finds herself alone,
She cries out where nobody goes,
her feelings remain unknown. 

But her wet eyes tell me a story,
of being in solitude and pain;
I can read her eyes, and memory,
glares inside again and again. 

Never shows the scars of her past,
hidden under the thin clothes;

The Fire and the Calm

Cindy Efu

17 Oct, 2017 08:21 AM
First came the calm, to teach the world how beautiful she could be, 
bringing a sense of safety to the world like best friends laying side by side, eyes closed,
hands clutching one anothers, heart beat syncing up the beat of the music.
but the calm gave the world feelings she wasnt ready to feel.

then came the fire to show the world excitement,
how fun she could be, how wreckless and mischevious.
the fire came to teach the world a lesson, 
carressing the world with temptation like a new emotion the world never knew exsisted,
like a young boy glimpsing at his first playboy,
leaving the world craving more and more,

Memories

John

03 Oct, 2017 11:35 PM
I dread going to bed
The loneliness I can bear
The cold I can endure
My greatest fear
More than life
More than death
Awaits on my pillow
The home of my darkest memories
Those patient tormentors
Who waits all day without a whisper
Without a trace

Inside

I stay inside 
Its warm and safe in here
Although many things have died
I stay inside
I cant say i haven't tried to leave
Many say to open up my doors
I stay inside
I've left before
Only to get bullied back to my side of the door
I let someone in earlier, their breaking my walls down
Trying to burn the whole roof to the ground
I stay inside
Since I've already died

Life Goes on..

Ato BakaIsback

23 Sep, 2017 02:32 PM
Living in the world
With no hope
Just a fake
That decayed away.

Life 's killing me
Injured me
Which become Unbearable
And change me .

Days become worst
With so much mistery

Yielding to Darkness

Priyanka Iyer

14 Sep, 2017 09:23 AM
I unraveled my dusty luggage of words today,
Humming a melody to blow pain away,
Cautiously, not letting my words become trite,
To dispel the darkness, I let in the light!

 

Preventing my thoughts from straying into paths malign,
All the while pursuing some kind of a positive sign,
With light, out went darkness and pain followed suit,
Somewhere perhaps, my efforts had borne fruit.
