Beauty Standards

Oh my god she's so fat, 
her stomach has rolls. 
And her thighs shake when she walks, 
unbelievable that, 
someone would comment on someone's folds. 
“Her double chin is visible when she talks.”  
Eating in front of someone and pray, 
pray that they don't judge me 
"she probably eats too much" they say 
people pass comments as though therapy is free
people judge too fast 
only caring about the outside 
what people say actually hurts on the inside 
and the good moments never last 
insecurities overwhelm us  
acting like we're fine
and the second we make a fuss 
we should "learn to take a joke" 
what a stupid hoax 
crossing lines 
by commenting on others bodies? 
no, and I'm not sorry.

If I Could Go Back In Time

If I could go back in time, 
I wouldn't really change anything. 
Changing things would be a crime, 
perfection, that's how I'd describe everything. 

I hate how we ended, 
but I love that we happened. 
I hate that you're not a part of my life anymore, 
but I love that when you were, you made me soar. 

I miss hearing about your days, 
and the happiness in your moonlit eyes. 
Your smile was like the suns rays, 
if I told you I wasn't in love, it'd be all lies. 

You're still the first person on my mind, 
when I have exciting news. 
Any reason to exchange words I'll find, 
conversing with you I'd never refuse. 

Our days together as a paradigm,
I hope it's not just me reminiscing. 
If I could go back in time, 
I wouldn't really change anything.

Yearning For Oases

Oh how I wish to be one with the wind in my hair, 
my floral dress flowing in the air. 
The soft ocean breeze hitting my face, 
and the delightful cadence of waves nothing would replace. 

The waters crash onto the quayside, 
as the ocean and sun would slowly collide. 
My mind and soul take in the beauty, 
carrying me away into a blissful reverie. 

The sky would form wondrous clouds full of colour, 
and I'd smile to myself as I think of this summer. 
Forever captivated by the world outside, 
while the moon will set on the other side. 

I dream to experience something just like this, 
I'd stay forever in this soulful abyss. 
I dream to find tranquility in exquisite places, 
whether it be an indoor inn or an outdoor oasis.

Weight of Words

If you have nothing nice to say, 
don't say anything at all. 
Your opinions seem to ruin my day. 
What gave you the gall
to express your unpleasant views, 
about me, my physique, or my features? 
Don't you think my feelings'd be bruised? 
Maybe everyone could be a little sweeter, 
a little more good natured, 
no nice words ever seem to be savoured. 
This isn't nice, 
this isn't right. 
Making fun of people, body shaming, 
stamping labels and naming. 
Even the compliments have layers. 
All this negativity; we turn from lovers to slayers.

Generation 2 Airpods

I try to drown them out, 
wearing my generation 2 Airpods.
All through the night I hear them shout, 
the starless night turns to a cloudless dawn. 
I can hear them through the walls. 
My mental health exists no more, 
as though it was never there in the first place. 
The clock of death starts ticking the moment you're born, 
people want it to slow down but all I want is to race, 
towards the bright gates of heaven or the fiery pits of hell. 
From reality my mind is torn. 
My sanity is like finding a coin in a well. 
After searching endlessly, 
you realise the coin may never be located. 
You might regret spending your time carelessly, 
but perhaps this is all fated. 
You were meant to go through living hell, 
to discover yourself once more. 
For happiness is a thirst we must quell, 
but life is an ocean and we must reach ashore.

Enigmatic Love

His voice is as fresh as the morning air, 
of his existence, every bone in my body is aware. 
His face is as mysterious as a book with no cover, 
oh how lucky I am, to have him as my lover. 
His exhilarating eyes look deep into my soul, 
his voice causes shivers through my bones. 

His soul is like a bottomless pit filled with care,
but his exterior is harder than a bricked well. 
A stoic expression plastered across his face,
him, no-one can replace.
A warm smile strewn across his heart,
my heart aches when we're apart.

He belongs to me, 
his heart is mine and so is his love. 
I’d never give him up, at least not easily. 
He looks after everyone with no declines. 
Loving him isn't tough, 
it makes me want to be alive.

To Be Well

A few ways to stay well, 
3 ways to you I shall tell. 

Believe in yourself, 
it helps strengthen your mental health.

Stay fit, 
Don’t just quit. 

Eat healthy, 
And keep your mind and body wealthy. 

Address what you’re feeling,
Then you’ll know, with what you’re dealing. 

Setbacks you must solve,
old feelings, you must dissolve.  

Take care, 
And on this note, I bid you farewell.

The Search For Silence

No matter what,
it's never enough. 
I’m never enough. 
It’s too much, it’s a lot. 

I’m caught, caught between what I want, 
and what achievements others expect. 
Caught between what I deserve, 
and the treatment I receive. 

No matter where I am or who I talk to, 
they always need to criticise. 
Their opinions are always voiced as "advice”, 
sometimes I’m afraid their words may be true. 

I want to be free of judgement, 
and free to do as I please. 
I’d like to wear makeup or any sort of garments, 
without the buzz of the fleas. 

I wish I could just smack everyone away. 
I’d be happier without the chatters and buzz. 
The time doesn't matter, night or day, 
I just want to be able to do what I want without a fuss.

Neverending Judgement

It’s an issue when I say something, 
but also when I don’t. 
There’s a problem with when I eat, 
but also when I don’t.  
Someone always has something to say, 
or looks to throw. 
No-one looks at what they do, 
just at what everyone else does.

Why?

why 
why do I need to keep earning your trust
when you don't trust me?
why do i keep hiding myself from you 
when you can't accept me
all i want is to be comfortable in my own skin 
do my own thing
the words you say? my heart is crushed. 
the urge to be free, the need to be free
free from your autocratic rule 
free from you being unjustifiably cruel 

i am your kin 
and where no child should ever be, i have been 
the treacherous no's to my pleads for therapy 
for my intrusive thoughts all i wanted was a remedy
your disbelief in my predicaments 
it feels like my feet are stuck in a pit of cement
my arms flailing, hoping to hold on to something,
when the realisation that i'm failing occurs, 
anxiety seeps into my skin like water into cloth 
the line between reality and imagination blurs 
the hours i spent on overthinking somehow unfurls 

the number of suicide notes ive written in the past year are concerning
with panic my stomach keeps churning
at this point though
to my thoughts there's no evident flow 
i think they're just diary entries 
i hope i don't feel the same when i'm in my twenties 
with my emotions unfurling into a chaotic swirl, 
I feel kinda nauseous, I might just hurl. 
the breakdowns in the school bathroom, 
the tears seeping out of my eyes, 
all these feelings might just lead to my demise.
