Lies

Brown eye to black eye
The movement of colour when you lie
Less conversations,more fights
This tension between us is really pushing me above my height
No good morning texts,nor goodnight ones
The stress makes me lose weight,tonnes and tonnes
Sleepless nights and a broken heart
I've tried my best to to fulfill my part
Long text messages with no reply
Me waiting on you with more emotions along with a cry
Insomnia begins and my once curvaceous body thins
Hallucinations as well amongst other terrrible things
It's Barneys fault that I became such a woe
Cause Barney said if I loved you you'd love me too
I'm slowly dying deep inside
The water is swallowing along with its tide
Tick tock clocks the time in years
Me lying in bed in a pool of tears
I'm sorry,I echo in the middle of the night
This life is taking me down with everything through every fight
I miss you,I whisper in the dark
But your heart is cold and dry like fallen off tree bark
How could an angel break my heart

Starry Starry Night

Starry Starry night
You have the the stars shine so bright
You have the moon all round at sight
You have it sailing across the sea night for night
But why is it dearest night
That my heart should feel so tight
And why is it shimmering stars 
That many have left such appalling scars
Oh tell me Mr moon 
Why does love turn you a fool
Tell me why,I can't understand why
That every night I should be the one to cry
Milky clouds of night
It seems like I never do anything right
Big blanket of blue,covering the sky
Why should my soul be ripped apart to dry
Why should I feel broken like this
Why am I left in a massive foggy mist
Why oh why starry starry night
Can't I be perfect at sight
Why is it shooting comets
That I get such insulting coments
Why ph why starry starry night
Can't I be as perfect as night

It's Over

Dark skies filled up thick with rain
Chilly days that awaken the pain
Salty droplets flowing down my face
My heart beating at an abnormal pace
Screams start to fill up my head
I'm to do something everyone will dread
Should I take the gun,the blade or the rope
Society has crushed everything including my hope
Filling the tub up to the brim 
Why did life have to cost a limb
First its the thighs then my ankles
Then my wrists and I massage my temples
I stagger to the bath and lay in the water 
All I can hear in my head is everyone's laughter
Slowly I loose consciousness and I begin to float
Above the water my body rises as though I'm a boat
Sudden darkness takes in my mind
Something not strange to find
I then exhale my last earthly breath
Well done society now I've met my death

Red Coloured Water

With tears streaming down her face
She sat knees to chest on the cold bathroom floor
She sobbed so loud in an unstoppable haste
Her back against the hard cool door
She rose up and headed to the small wall cupboard
She took her dads razor and cried even more
The locked the door and filled the tub
She slit her thighs and winced as her skin tore
She repeated again and again as she heard her heart thud
She carried on and soon the floor was covered with blood
She slowly entered the overflowing bath
Her mind asking why she had to feel such wrath
She took the blade and muttered a sorry
She slit down her wrist embracing death and all its glory
She did the same to her left wrist as quick
All the pity was that the right hand was weak
She dropped the blade and leaned her head against the tap
She was tired of the world and all her crap
She began to breath and it was ragged breathing
Each breath she took seemed like her heart would stop beating
She closed her eyes and was taken into pure darkness
She smiled one last time and closed her eyes
She was tired and sad and had decided to fly
Away from the nonsense and all the fights
Thats why she decided on committing suicide.

Are We Really Free

captured by ideas of society.bound by the chains of created ideology.murdered by the fluctuation of emotional distress.tortured by the minds of our peers.disappointed in our ability to feel pain.shut up by the fear of rejection.insane of words kept too deep within.deluded by stereotypes regarding race,culture,creed and beliefs.and yet our parents think that they raise us in a free society.they think that no it's only adolescent.they think it's a phase to pass.don't they understand the scathing this "phase" can do.we're just clouded with this utopia of freedom yet we are heavily incarcerated by our lives.

Do we really think we're still free?

Just a Little Prayer

God hear my heart and calm my soul. Settle my fears and bless my mind. For I'm only human born into a world where peace and love is hard to find. I bleed and I weep for this place oh Lord. May your holiness be my protection,may it My sword. May the  restlessness of this world not taint my heart and spirit. May I learn to seek you everywhere and in everything in it. Oh Lord my God, please hear my heart and calm my soul.©?
