I am a writer
I write what
I wish I could say
Trapping my feelings
On paper everyday

I am a writer
I write what
I see around me
My eyes; wide open
Have set me free

I am a writer
I write what
I need to do
Clear and confused
Just give me a clue

I am a writer
I write what I feel
And I feel what I write
But when I stop feeling
I stop writing
And my little world
Starts reeling

I am a writer
Who writes to find reason
And maybe even some treason
In this world
Where insanity rules
Behind a piece of paper marked:
"Here are the fools"

New Perspective

My world is blurry Filled with illness and hurry I crawl at the speed of light With all of my unbalanced might I'm too small to rule her world Although I always make it swirl She cares for me With a silent plea One the yearns for peace Her love will never cease But soon I'll be leaving And she'll take up drinking Killing herself slowly Wishing she was holy So that maybe I could stay And she wouldn't stray From this crazy thing that holds us here Sometimes I wish it would just disappear I don't have much time left And maybe I'm asking too much Please tell her she's blessed And be her crutch When things get bad She'll be sad Because I

What I Can't Have

I wanted wings To wrap me gently In such a wondrously beautiful embrace Amongst the stars and angels So I delicately ripped flight From the butterflies surrounding my window In the hopes they could fly me away. I wanted to feel loved To feel the doting heat Of a lovers breath on my neck And grasp on my heart So I kissed the sun And held it ever so gently Against my breast till It burned me away And I could reminisce in its loving burn. I wanted to be whole Without flaw Without ugly bones to trap my soul Without a life So desperately wanting Everything it could never have or be So I embraced the seas Submerged my entirety My being Letti

You said....

You told me “friends forever”, More like ‘friends for now’, As your sweet promises Were just lies I allowed. You said “we are best friends”, More like ‘friends at best’, As your solid affirmations Were all digressed. You told me “I need you” More like ‘you need me’ As your statements Were my last plea. Why did you go? Why did you leave? I’m left here all alone Trying, in us, to believe.

Literature

A message to the broken

You drown yourself in liquid sorrows, letting the salty mess burn your wounds, and the sadness to drip in your mouth, consuming your words and you say you deserve the pain, but I want to dry your face, and whisper in your ear how the clouds cry too, while they hold such beauty, and so do you.

Oh Brave New World

Imagine a world where there is no sorrow Or sadness, or pain, or dismay True, in this world there'd be no happiness But that's a small price to pay. Imagine a world where there is no regret Because nothing really matters No broken dreams, no broken hearts Because there are no hearts or dreams to shatter. Imagine a world where everything you have Is all that you desire A world where every person and thing Is easy to acquire. Imagine a world where every person Is dressed based on their class And your destiny is laid before you, A fate you can't surpass. Imagine a world where holidays Are just a pill away Or am I mistaking this

Depression Isn't Real

Depression isn’t true, my dear Depression isn’t real. It’s just a silly tragedy You’ve forced yourself to feel. Anxiety is fake, my friend You wonder why it’s there. But others have it worse than you! Stop forming false despair. Cutting is dramatic, love, It’s ugly, and it’s dumb. Why not just get over it? Is the attention fun? Suicide is stupid, dear, And selfish, if I may. Get over yourself, darling, Can you hear these things I say? Why aren’t you replying, love? Oh, where could you have gone? I never meant to hurt you, love, Did I say something wrong? Why aren’t you replying, dear

Literature

Outsider

Did you ever fit in? You tried to. No one could say you didn't try but you possessed something the others didn't have. A conscience worth listening to, intelligence and empathy, a knowing that came from deep within. Actually that's the reason you seemed older than all the rest. Those childish and silly, always willing to do stupid things, they would say you're missing out on life but then what sort of life do they have, with their false friends, who tend to vanish into thin air if really needed. Yes you did try but who's to say their way is correct. Stay true to yourself, it's better on the outside. Written by Suzanne Karbach

I Like Being Weird

Whether I’m laughing in awkward situations Or crying when everybody else smiles I go from wanting to stay in bed forever To wanting to run directionless for miles Normality just feels like silent floorboards And is something I most definitely fear See I need to creak every once in a while You won’t understand but I like being weird Talking when everybody else is silent Being deathly quiet in a maelstrom of noise As I decide if I’ll be your friend today But I promise that you are not just a toy Normality just feels like empty nightscapes And is something I most definitely fear I need the stars to spell out my last name Do

Darling, Don't You Dare

To the girl who skips dinner, Because her reflection hurts more than Starving. To the boy who wears sweatshirts On hot summer days, Because he doesn’t want his mother to cry over his Scars. To the boy who weeps uncontrollably Until he falls asleep, Because it’s the only way to escape into his Dreams. To the girl who spends her days in her bedroom, Because the dark is more peaceful than her Mind. To the child who gets angry, Because no one understands. To the teens who self-harm, To the ones in recovery, To the ones that just can’t do it anymore… Stay Strong. For the girl who skips meals And the boy who wears sw

My Beautiful Mess

She smiles like the Cheshire cat Like her problems don't matter Like the stars can speak Like perhaps she can hear them She laughs like she's mad Like every moment is special Like she controls her destiny Like it's her last day on Earth She loves like a child Like she's not sorry for being happy Like her pain is pretend Like there are always second chances

it's okay to not be okay

sometimes it’s okay to sit on the floor of the bathroom stall and let your feelings gather- it’s okay to let them pool like a lachrymose lagoon as the inside of your stomach does summersaults; I know these emotions can’t be tenderly released, they’re not soft waves kissing the expecting shore, let them pour out of you like tidal waves- release the tsunami from within you and I know sometimes the tears will sodden your pillowcase, they’ll be juggernauts- those brackish beads cathartically-cartwheeling down your flushed cheeks; but remember how even the clouds may cry tempestuously today, only to make room for m

put your hands on either side of my hipbones and press. I wanna hear my own innocence fracture.

Literature

Your feelings are valid

I once read that a teaspoon of matter from a black hole can weigh thousands of tons upon Earth so think about that when someone tells you your problem is no big deal for it may not look like you have the weight of the world upon your shoulders but it sure can feel like it.
