Life, Oh I Give Up

What is this?
I am restless
I don’t know why 
But, I feel no interest
Just force a smile upon

What is this? 
I see no color 
But, I am not blind 
Oh, I see, the world is black
No love, no affection

Tired

Derek

27 Oct, 2014 03:23 AM
Is it so hard to decipher the poorly encrypted code placed on my face?
"I'm tired" "I'm just tired" "I'm fine, I'm just fucking tired"

Is this so believable that you're left with nothing to inquire? 
Or is there something less forming, some lack of desire? 
The thoughts in my head are swarming, that no one is caring.

I always get left behind, there's just me being lonely and alone.
"It's OK, I'm really fine. It's just hard to sleep when I'm at home."
Just a second glance, it's all that I ask.

I'm at the brink of tears, I need some help before my skin tears.

Broken

Cassy

22 Nov, 2016 09:09 PM
You know you're broken when
Laughter sounds like tears.
And you have so many dark fears.
When your smile doesn't reach your eyes.
And Your world is surrounded by lies.
When you have no need for life.
You stare and wonder at your knife.

You know you're broken when
You can't do anything right.
In your soul, there's no longer light.
When you can't be happy anymore.

Our little raven

A Mother of Raven

12 Jul, 2017 05:02 PM
You never got to truly know me
We wasted time on useless fights
It was about who is stronger 
It was about who is right 

And now we're left with bleeding hearts
There is no winning, only loss
No one is right, no one is stronger 
And all our happiness is lost

We fought because we love each other 
We drove ourselves into the dark

I Wonder

Lily Vasilyeva

01 Jun, 2013 12:47 PM
I wonder if it'd be nice to drown?
To feel the burning lack of air inside your throat?
To see yourself as you're slowly flowing down,
Deep to the bottom, you gently, gently float;

I wonder if it'd be nice to jump?
Jump of a building, the wind whipping your hair?
You'd end up looking at the sky, your body slumped,
And still feel the gentle touch of air;

I wonder if it'd be nice to overdose on pills?
Wouldn't it be great to finally leave this place?

The Girl

Haven

21 Mar, 2018 03:27 AM
She sits in her room staring at the wall knowing she could never be anything more than worthless
The thoughts running through her head are on replay and never leave
So she sits facing a choice alone with no help
She sits facing death or life
Hard choice you may say, not to her she has her answer 
She has had her mind made up for a while
She sits facing the wall picking up a blade 
Small tears escaping her bloodshot eyes
She replays the memories one last time 
As she sits there staring at the wall digging the blade into her skin 
Deeper and deeper she goes
Blood trickling down her arms forming puddles on her floor

~Darkness Descends~

Jeanie Leyba

05 Dec, 2015 04:58 AM
Another night closes in
Darkness descends down
Smothering, suffocating,
Drowning me once again

In my deep depths 
Of dark despair
Breaking my spirit
Leaving me shattered

Consumed with pain
I'm completely broken

~Relief Into The Abyss Is Me~

Jeanie Leyba

05 Dec, 2015 04:40 AM
Let me go, set me free of this 
Paralyzing sickness that has
Taken complete control of me

All this pain I carry eating me alive
All this rage I feel the blackness
That drowns me, suffocates, suffocates, 
I'm choking in this poisen that is destroying
Me, consuming every breath I have left

Let me go, set me free, release me
I don't want to fight anymore

~Depression~

Jeanie Leyba

05 Dec, 2015 04:18 AM
I can't explain this darkness in me
I can't explain the hate that dwells in me
I cam't explain this pain, agonizing ache
That consumes all of me
I can't explain this demon that resides in me, I can't explain the Mon-Sun in stages
I can't explain my sleepless nights and my madness created by the monsters in my mind that torment me with their screaming thoughts created from a painful past that left me dead inside, my pathetic tormented
Soul that screams for peace, freedom
To draw my last breath and be seen 
To watch me spread my wings
And see me happy that I'm finally free.

Nothingness on a Dark Road

Nadene Basson

22 Sep, 2014 09:50 AM
A Dark road, alone with only my thoughts, 
with the sound of my heartbeat and broken hope.
Crimson tears, slowly draining my soul, my hope, my life. 
It’s bliss, knowing that I will no longer endure the struggle of everyday shit.
 
I have been waiting for all this to end, endless nights in the darkness, 
wishing that by some miracle, 
I will just vanish into the lurking nothingness of my existence. 
Spending my time in the shadows that drown me.

Please release me from my burden. 
The deception of a happy face, the facade people around me see.
