Broken Record

Scars on her wrists

They never to seem to fade

This will be how it is the rest of her days

A broken record, 

Still trying to force its self to play

What kind of life is this

A smile on her face

But secrets hidden deep

If they knew their opinions would change

"She's crazy"

"She's a freak"

"Pathetic"

"Stupid"

All of those things they'd say

They'd wrap around her throat like a rope

Tugging and choking her life away

She stays hidden.

A record, broken but silent

Still trying to force its self to play

This will be how it is the rest of her days.

Unless she speaks. 

How dare she speak?

 Uttering those words.

To whom she speak?

To the people? 

To the walls which upon she stares?

No one. No one is there to listen. 

No one. No one is there to care.

Lights

Help me

I can't breathe

Its like I'm drowning

In an icy cold, deep sea

It's like I'm screaming

But no matter how loud,

Nobody hears

It's like

It's like I'm put on mute

Like there's no sound

I feel like I'm perfectly bound

In a small box

Sealed up tight

Its as if I'm searching

To finally find a way out

To finally be free 

To see all of those magnificent and amazing

Bright shining lights.

Tea

Happiness,

Warmth


The perfect drink

On a rainy day.


Comfort, 

Pleasure.


The drink they sip

As conversation is made,

As friendship is started.


Peaceful serenity,

New beginnings.


As the sunset of the day slowly sinks into the shadows of twilight

I rest my head against his chest and listen

Listen to the slow rhythm of his heartbeat.


Silence, 

Grace.


His chest slowly rises and then falls again with each breath he takes

I look at him and I know,

He is the warmth and the comfort I need.


My cup of tea.

Heads Or Tails

A bright smile,

A dark heart.


An open book,

Full of dark secrets.


Happy on the outside,

Hollow under the skin.


Busy days,

Lonely nights.


It's good, Its great.

It never ends, its a tragic cycle.


Nobody notices,

I think they know.


Strong,

Falling apart.


I help others.

I need to be saved.


Is there something beneath, they wonder.

She worries, hoping things will stay hidden.


It all comes out in the open.

Will things get worse?


"You're stupid, you're pathetic"

"Why do I deserve this?"


Get over yourself, its for attention.

She can't take it anymore.


Stop pretending, everything's fine.

Giving up, can't handle life anymore.


She's really gone.

I'm gone.

Mama

Three kids yet she's got none of them

Her mind is in a daze 

She'll never ever change

A needle in her arm

And a strung out husband on the side

What kind of life is that?

She'll never ever change

Mama please, 

We need you.

We need you but you don't need us

No, not anymore.

You say you love us,

Mama no need to lie.

You're gone.

You can't deny. 

We see it in your eyes,

Emptiness.

She'll never ever change

One pill, two pill, three

How many will it take till she can't feel a thing?

Mama,

What did we do?

Are we that burden you can't shake?

Is that the reason why you do the things that you do?
