All That You Do

When work has been crazy,
And I come home to the laundry already done,
I feel lucky to have you.
When I feel like life is too hard,
And I want to give up,
You go and fix the bed up,
You hold me close,
And you listen to all my worries and fears.
At that moment,
You make me feel like
Maybe, just maybe life will be alright.
When I get back from a stressful and long trip,
You are there on time to meet me 
And give me that long loving hug,
And tell me how much you missed me.
That shows me you really care!
When we lock eyes in the morning,
After we just woke up,
You give me that cute little smile.
It makes me feel special
And excited that you are happy to see me.
When I fall and hurt myself,
No matter how it happened,
You always check to see if I am okay.
When you do that,
It means the world to me.
I could go on forever,
About all that you do,
But for now I will just end with the words
I love you!

Broken

I sit here and think 
I'm going to hell.
I wish it was full of fire 
And blazing with despair. 
Instead its full of people,
Who are suppose to be close to my heart.
Family.
Its the worst.
Buying my ticket for home
Is a ticket to visit the devil.
Rosy cheeks, 
Giggles and laughs,
Isn't that how Christmas looks?
Not to me.
My tears are basically leaping from my face,
My mind mentally preparing.
My head throbs
And my eyes stare wide,
Looking into no where
As my body begins to shut down.
If my mind doesn't blow up,
I'm sure my whole self will.

My Anxiously Depressed State of Mind

A colourful room
A disorganized mess
My brain.
My thoughts take control
I feel like I'm going to hell.
Life sucks.
Everyone is just as frustrated with me
As I am with life.
People have their own life to worry about
They don't need to worry about mine.
I feel very alone
My thoughts go off independently
I have no control.
My subcausious parinoid mind takes over.
Wheels are constantly turning
Going too fast to keep up.
If I just go to bed
And go to sleep
I can wake up when I am equipped
To handle all this reality.

I Sometimes Wonder

Do you care?
Are you in love with me?
Do you think I'm stupid?
Is there going to be an end?
Can you promise me forever?
My mind is constantly confused.
Emotions fill my brain,
Pulling me in every direction.
With all this pain inside,
My heart is open wide,
My blood is running thick,
My wounds are sore,
And my body is begging for comfort.
Your heart is filled with so much compassion,
Just wish you'd show it more to me,
For my body wants all of you.
My flesh just wants to be in your arms,
My mind just wants your acceptance.
As I write this,
My body is numb,
My brain is overwhelmed.

Torn

You don't know what I feel
You don't know what I think
No one does
Everything is swept under a rug
Yet floats through the air
You don't think I remember?
Well, how could I forget?
If your not talking about it
Someone else is
You pull me one way
For me to be pulled again
Back and forth like its a game of tug-a-war
I know what your thinking
Who cares about you?
About your opinion
Your thoughts
You choose to let my word slide
You think I agree with you
Your not wrong
But your also not right
I love you all can't you see?
By choosing a side
My love is never full
It was all great
Then it was shattered
Now it is changing
Again and again
What sucks is what I can't do
I can't make it all better
This occupies my thoughts
To no end at night 
I think about life and where I am today
Without you 
By now I'd have withered away
So now you know how I feel
And you know what I think
But I know that don't mean a single thing.

Alone

Feeling alone,
Like I need to get out,
I'd like to escape,
And have nothing to worry about.
My brain is always going,
No breaks are insight,
It makes me feel distant,
From me, myself and I.
I think of my mom,
And all that she'd say,
Probably though,
She'd be on my side. 
I wish she'd come see me,
Or be more near,
When she talks to me,
She makes life seem so easy.
Mom let's me be,
She trusts in my judgement,
And she believes in me.
Now I live so far,
With different supports,
I feel like a burden,
With a really bad report.
I feel so alone,
In a house so full,
I don't know what to do,
Just hoping it all works out.

Soul Explosion

There's fire burning high,
Different coloured flames are everywhere,
I'm all alone in the centre,
No way to reach out.
Memories creep threw,
Showing themselves in the light.
Fun and carefree times,
Happiness and excitement,
I reach out in hopes to feel the same,
But these illusions are just mocking me.
As I sit here pondering to my sorrowful thoughts,
I burst into flames,
My soul becoming burnt ashes left to dance in the night.
