I'M Not Strong

I'm not strong
the nights are long
with my thoughts
in my mind
the demons designed
all the lies
that specified
how to act
they told me what to do
that's a fact
I made a pact
with myself
not to be put on a shelf
the thoughts in my mind on repeat
it forms a beat
I try to push the demons away
that's a feat
but I never can
they come back in a clan
ready to be fought
they can't be bought

Jayme's Poem

(this poem is a work in progress)

You've been there for me every step of the way
you've saved my day
more than once
when it hurt so bad
and I was so sad
I was always glad
to see your face
and know
that I'd survive 
with you by my side
when I was going through hell
you helped me prevail 
I owe you everything

Happy Mother's Day

Happy mother's day I'll hear
as I wipe away a tear 
and try to hide
I can't abide the pain
there is no relief
so I'll retreat
I'll pretend my heart is whole
like there's not a hole

It's Coming

The day's drawing nearer 
a weight on my heart
a world of hurt exposed
for all to see
I feel guilty but I miss you plenty
You're on my mind
I wish I could rewind
back time
I'd say I love you more 
and ignore
how you made me feel
I know it wasn't intentional
you couldn't be that mental
I see you in my mind
your voice is getting lost 
in my memory
but it's only temporary
I swear I'll see you soon
just as soon as I meet my own doom

I Broke Down

I broke down 
tears streamed down my face
screams inside my head on repeat

there's no way I can beat 
monsters in my mind
they're on full-time

I don't ever get a break
they just want me to fall
down; covered in sound

in the back of my mind
there never seems to be time
my thoughts are getting hazy

I try to shut off my brain
there's just to much pain
to much to try and forget 

So I stand in the rain 
and let water pour out of my eyes

The rain is my disguise 
it hides my tears 
and washes away my fears

I no longer ignore it 
or try to destroy it

I finally am letting myself feel pain
because I know there's always more to gain

I'll drown my demons in my tears 
of acceptance of the fact

Free of the monsters for a day
I smile and laugh until tomorrow 
then I'll do it all over again
