Like the fridged winter air seeping into my skin,I watch as the ink bleeds through the paper from my pen.I turn words into visions and visions into words.Poetry sets me free like the air flowing beneath the wings of the birds.As I look up at the sky,I pray that my guardian angel would wipe the tears that I cry.I stood in front of the mirror.Thinking if I closed my eyes my thoughts would be clearer.I rubbed my eyes, but wh...

Go away, fuck off, back to your bunker.It has no title,but understanding is vital.Stop.Here’s the poem: I saw somebody.She was beautiful.An energy that didn’t fit,yet she owned it. I found outshe likes to twist and shout.But does she like ...? Her polar is bi,she thinks she can flyand of course she can. She doesn’t need fixing.Let her bebecause she is me. I am serenity.  

All of my life I have had to deal with a mind crippling depression. The origional time this depression hit me was when I was 11 years old and had started 7th grade. I had just moved from my grade school to a junior high. For the intial first half grading period, I was forgetting homework assignments and even how to do tasks. I suffered. I could get control of my emotions after 3 weeks and my course work improved, so I fel...

Do we hearken to our hearts? Do we assimilate our inner instincts? No. We are galloping in a race where we get anxiety because of our ineptitude to fit the so-called success pattern. We follow what everybody is doing to reach perfection. But, life is not that harsh! It sprinkles shimmering flakes of elation and serenity at the coldest of times where we have relinquished our hopes.  

I am tryingbut three days in a carmake my progress seem very farThankfully the seahas come to my rescue again.Salt air, endless ocean views are friendsPatience you continue to showmile after mile day after dayEventually helping me find my wayI question again and againWhy am I so different, so bentMaybe that's why you were sentWhen others around me laughand enjoy good timesMy brain chemistry makes me hideYet you are always...

She was again bullied by one of her seniors. She came back to her room crying. She was delighted to be a part of that event but had never thought it could turn harsh on her. She started scolding herself and took all the flaws on her own. She felt suffocated and unconfident for her ineptitude to enunciate among everyone. The girl turned against herself and kept blaming herself for the way she was. Days passed but the spect...

I’m happy that you’re gone Not because I wanted you dead Not because I never cared But because all hate, sadness and pain is gone   I’m happy that you’re gone Not because I don’t want you by my side Where you belong to love me, to catch me if I slip or slide But because your journey to peace is on   I’m happy that you’re gone Not because it’s better nowadays But knowing that you’re in a better place Can help me and the on...

Dear Diary,  You know how when you put your whole self into something or you give all you can that day, even if it’s not much, it still feels like a whole lot to you? And you know, how you feel so good about yourself for a minute because you think you did a lot and gave it your all but come to find out you're not doing even half of what normal people are?  None of that probably makes sense at all but it’s how I feel about...

Battle within Despair Not worthy Raging Heart blacken  Emptiness Soul lost Pain Standing alone Darkness Goating spectors Numbness Midnight gongs         

When does it happen and where does it go, the happiness I used to know? I shallow breathe, hold my breath, refusing to utter shibboleths. I'm not getting better, remedies fail, I mourn a time when I was hale. The doctors and I both know what's not; neither one knows what's begot. The lab screens all say I'm fine but I know when mood crosses the line. A zombie lives inside of me, he brings hopelessness and despondency. He...

I am enraged. Why must our lives be so difficult? Why must those who are supposed to love us, Hurt us? The idea of you hurting in any way pains me. It fills me with a burning hatred I have long forgotten. To know that you are being beaten down, And treated like dirt But still have the strength to put on a happy face and show no pain Completely breaks my heart. To know that every night you are cold And sometimes have no wh...

I was always scared    I never knew what direction to go in   Fearing what lies ahead and how someone would treat me    Scared of love and passion    It could be from past experiences    Well it is from past experiences but I hate to admit that    I’d like to say I’m strong, that I don’t let it bother me    Truth is, I’ve missed out on plenty of relationships due to it    Truth is, I’ve been so distant in the ones I do ha...

For her.. Its already been one hell of a year Filled with lost friendships and finances Broken promises And a family that just don’t care. For her… She sits alone by the phone Waiting for an important call It will forever change her life As it holds the key to her future. For her… She flicks through photos Remembering all the friends she’s made The moments of sadness and tears Mixed with silliness and pure joy. For them.....

The love we let subside, the fear we try to so hard to hide, the hopes we dare not speak, and the nightmares we keep alive   Whether it's depression's blight, jealousy's sabotaging bite, or simple resentment and spite, all act as condemnations for the self   A host of symptoms that serve to bind, we give into loneliness and despair, pop the pills we are prescribed, or simply pretend that we're alright   We cower behind wh...
