Best Borderline Poems

We Are All the Same
Listen to the reeds as they sway apart;
Hear them speak of lost friends.
At birth, you were cut from your bed,
Crying and grasping in separation.
Everyone listens, knowing your song.
You yearn for others who know your name,
And the words to your lament.
We are...

It's difficult, but please try to understand,
my behaviour is something I cannot command.
At first I'll be serene like a sweet daydream,
but then unstable and intensely extreme.

Enter at your own risk, but be aware,
loving me can turn into a nightmare.
I'm like a grenade, don't pull my...

try and seed my name you'll concede to shame
no use in calling names to lose the game

yir' ill will is just plain disastrous 
asinine avatars deserve an asterisk

I sat on the couch in her office.
I'm a piece of work
She asked me "what ails you?"
I smiled because I didn't know better.

I smiled as I spoke of the pills I took last night, 
And of the piano tutor who took me
Even though I was...

Borderline Personality Disorder: Full Disclosure


There is no I inside,
No consistent self through time. 
I know that I am but 
Don't know who it is that is,
Who will be tomorrow, or was yesterday.
          Sad to be confused.

All...

All those lies,
The creaking on the stairs
Glazed fixed eyes
Upon scuff marked boots
My abrupt croak,
Droned-out by sudden humming
From the refrigerator
My voice falls,
Pitched to the floor
Like suspended in time
To look upon these photos now
Hold nothing but false pretenses
A mirrored hope,
To escape for plummeting slopes
Our roots untouched lay
Fuming...

Parental desperation
is the dreadful flee bidden cause
Children separation
is the inhumane quarantine effect

Trying to cross the sovereign divide
is narrow mindedly viewed, by more than a few,
as a pestilent travel venture
Ill will is the chilling, unhealthy reception

The uncivil solution: Create an insane policy
for poor souls seeking asylum
Man-made...

These secrets of the things I went through
As a child are so hard to keep, so hard to tell
I've made no pact, no promise with the devils
To keep the secrets, I just went through the hells
I don't know how young I was when it started
My...

She knows she isn't crazy
She knows what she sees....
She binge Eats to make it all go 
away.... 
Yea, her stress....
She becomes depressed.

She can't have a long social 
relationship because of her 
mood swings...
She can't control herself.
She becomes someone else.

She forgets what she says,
But remembers her...

borderline
between what may i ask?
floating whilst the clock ticks by
tears on the night of your life
pain in pleasure
pleasure in pain
doors closed 
the slams still echo in your brain
in-prisoned by your own name
dust scatters over where you lay
an endless impossible escape you planned at 5
imprints of...

Borderline Drunk 
It has been a bad day driving around having
A coffee here and a diet coke there, 
The problem was I had been drinking the night 
Before and craving for more
Was filling my heads with excuses, the thought
 I deserve a drink.... do I...

I've spent the last 7 years trying to find a cure for whatever's wrong with me
The sickness in my head and heart that nobody else can see

The sickness that caused a craving for something i could never find
A sickness that escalated every emotion in my...

BORDERLINE

I know I should not feel this way
It is not your fault that no one stays
It is not your fault I have no friends
Not your fault no one can contend

With the craziness inside my head
That makes me with I was dead
That leaves me feeling all...

Standing on the threshold 
Bordering realities 
Caught between what is
And what should never be

Discerning my indifferences
Thought becomes a casualty
Amidst a different mindset
A mirror of humility

Step however lightly
Into that maze of doubt
Which keeps us all pretending 
To know what life's about

Nothing's ever easy
In choices that we...

How do I explain
That my emotions are painful
That happiness is euphoria
That anger is blinded rage
That love borders obsession
How do I explain
That my emotions are my enemy
That sadness is suicidal thoughts
That pain is an agonizing fire that consumes me
That emotions are a hurricane
That merged with a...
