When you are born
you are given two things,
heart and mind.
From little age you are told:
"Be careful with the heart,
it is a fragile thing. "
"Sharpen and strengthen your mind,
for it will serve you right. "
But no one tells you,
how fragile mind can be,
how easily it breaks
and how tough one's heart is,
how hard it is to get inside.
No one talks about the way
they work so closely together.
No one could say
the truth about their bond.
No one tells you
how it hurts when one breaks.
Just one thing they let you know:
"Be kind. For it is your shield and your sword."
But how can that be,
when your arms are trembling
and your eyes are filled with water?
Lines Written in my Cage.
It feels suffocating
Lies so excruciating
The love runs deep
But I might never keep
With lies and mind illusions
I hate how you've got me having delusions
You're giving me hypertension
Now I'm in another dimension
This love is toxic
It's starting to get chaotic
I'm in my zone, chill within my bones
While I'm skipping stones
Staring at the sky
I'm trying not to say bye
My life is going down
Maybe I should move to a new town
Start again, new friends, maybe family
Get my things in harmony
And maybe then I'll finally have peace
Finally get away from the beast
Away from all the abuse
Not drowning in all the misuse
With people crowded like flies
Yet we're trying to get to the skies
My head is pounding
Yet my imagination is unbounding
If I die who's gonna remember me
Maybe my grave will be the key
My mind is a delusional trajectory
I'm hoping I find a new sanctuary
To anyone who's at this stage
I think all I needed was a page
This I think is by far the longest poem I've written👌. I had help from @pheonix-notthebird. She started helping me at "Maybe my grave will be the key". Thanks a lot you were really helpful and I hope y'all like the poem :) . PS: I chose that title cuz Cage nd Page rhyme and it's like start & end so ¯\😋/¯
Roses once red
Now wilted and dead
Memories of love
Now filled with dread
Heartache and tears, the pain won't fade
In a lonely world
My soul aches and sways
My poems make me feel like I'm depressedðŸ˜
Roses are red
Skies are grey
Our once true love
Now fading away
In moments of darkness
In the face of lies
Nothing is left
But the madness in our eyes
Wow...
I have loved you since We were young. barely old enough to even understand what love even was. the feeling of pure and utter devotion I had felt for you before I fully realized How much love would ruin me. How much it would kill me Tearing me apart, never letting me go Stealing away my heart, never giving it back
A breath of an artist is an art in itself, bejewelled recollection of a billion poignant tales. A heroic poetry of a broken heart that mends a million cracks around.

just a sad kind of tired that creeps upon you with little cat feet
curls up on your shoulder and never leaves
it yawns and shifts and gets heavier and heavier, but you can’t bring yourself to let go
you get sadder and tireder but the numbing blanket it provides is addictingÂ
you can’t go back to the world without the tired kind of sad and its little cat feet
it is time for me to open up with you. Seriously.
I’m destroyed, fully. I know that it breaks your heart, when I cry again, instead of being honest with myself; but I can’t stop. That’s so much more to my soul that you haven’t seen yet, and I’m hating myself because I haven’t even tried showing it to you.
I wanna be with you, in a way that you will never understand; I was brought up by two morally and emotionally diverse parents: one was too affectionate and oblivious to the world, and the other one was too cold and overprotective, so both of them never realised how toxic it became.
And you do it so well. You’re so understanding. You’re there for me. You’re my other half. That part which I’ve been missing for a lot of time. You stare at me and to me, that, that is the sun. The sun looking at me, admiring me but never blinding my eyes or burning my skin. Because you know exactly what I need.
You’re the moon to my inner stars. You complete me entirely.
And there’s a whole lot of baggage that you can’t see because i’ve been hiding it to you. Will I ever feel the need to show you where I’m hurting?
I know you hear me when I cry. It hurts you. But I can’t stop.
If you were anybody else, you’d leave me in my own torment. But, you're not and I don't know idf that makes me feel any better.
It breaks your heart. Leaving me.
So why are you leaving me?
I am a Girl
By FrogEatsEverything
I gaze up at the midnight sky, the look of the stars and the patterns they make, allow my soul to mellow out.
For once in my life I feel free, like there is no one to see me cry or laugh or curse up a storm. So here I stay so I can mourn.
Mourn what I do not know.
The sound of nature calms my nerves, my body relaxing on its own, as I am content with staying away from home.
I open my eyes, not noticing when they close, but I am obviously unaware.
My hand sank into the grass, twitching with every touch of blade. But I don’t mind, as long as I can let my heavy burden slip off my shoulders.
I’m glad I am at peace, for there is no need to carry my guilt.
I am free, yet I’m still trapped and can’t find the key.
Even when I run away from the nightmare that is my everyday terror, I know I cannot stay here forever.
I can already feel the pull on my body, trying to drag me through the ground.
Exposing me to the dangers that I must face.
Tears fell down my face, the once peaceful silence now shuddered.
The moon crumbles, I no longer feel the grass with my hand, I can no longer see this blissful land.
The black dots that seep into my vision cause panic to swell in my throat.
My chest tightens as the stars turns into eyes, staring down at me.
Their gaze burns my skin, I clenched my eyes close.
My fingernails dip into the delicate skin of my palms.
Teeth clenched to force back sobs, my remaining hand coming to guard my mouth.
My body violently shudders, my form trembling yet there’s no movement on the ground.
I continue to try to control my cries, pressure wrapping itself on my limbs. Tugging me as if I was a puppet.
The puppeteer controls my strings, forcing me to act normal, I can’t let them know.
I can’t let them know
I can’t let them know
I Can’t Let Them Know!
The voices tell me, arguing with each other on how I should react.
I’m tired of staying quiet, I open my mouth and let out a scream.
Only, there was no noise that came from my throat, not a single peep.
The voices were dead silent…
I lifted my head, my eyes opening as the shadows of my room crawled on top of me.
I find slight comfort and despair that I am back home, glad that my puppeteer loosely held onto me.
They were just that, strings, not the chain that used to hold me down.
I feel tired, a wave of empty exhaustion slamming into my body.
I drop my head back onto my pillows, looking through my scattered thoughts.
How did I get here?
Why was I in my room?
Why am I crying?
I question, lifting up a hand to rub at my face.
I put my hand back down, pulling it to my chest as paranoia strikes itself into my brain.
I look around my room one more time, freezing when I spot a mirror hanging on my door.
I shift on my bed, eyes widening as I look at the person the mirror projects.
It was a stranger, I was sure of it.
It had brown bloodshot eyes and short blue hair.
No that was not what made me think that this was an imposter, no it was the empty shine in their eyes.
Eyes that were supposed to show joy and happiness.
Shine as the brown hues sparkle with life.
This wasn’t me, it was just a default mode that I can change into.
That’s right, I’m still alive, I should be happy!
A small smile forced its way on my lips, eyes straining with the effort to look normal.
There, much better, I thought.
There in that moment was someone who wasn’t lonely and dying inside.
There was the perfect image of a person that a mother would be proud to call her daughter.
Daughter
That’s right she is a girl, her name doesn’t come to her, a twisted ugly sensation filled her gut at the thought.
She was a girl, she had to be one, her mom said so, and parents are always right.
But it didn’t feel right.
And as I look in my reflection, I wonder if that person in the cracked shiny glass was me.
That I wasn’t okay, that I didn’t want to be a girl, that I felt suffocated being in the same house as that person who I was supposed to call mother.
Before I could figure out what was so wrong with me being a girl, the stars that I dreamed of popped into my head.
The wicked shine of their light bearing down on me.
No I couldn’t tell anyone, no one would listen, no one would care.
It didn’t matter what I felt, as long as I was the perfect daughter.
I fall back into bed, pulling the covers over my head.
I couldn’t continue to stare at that mirror, I didn’t want to know who was in that reflecting surface.
Because I don’t want to know who I am, for I will never be free.
I will never be able to cut my hair short, to do sports or even try to be someone I’m not supposed to be.
I am a girl.
I will never look at the star and feel free, not with their eyes judging her every decision.
I will continue to be this girl, the one who is happy.
The unhappy me has to disappear, for it is not real.
I am free, yet I am trapped inside of my mind. There will be no mistakes. For I am a
Girl.
I wear my somber
as a deep cloak
deep Prussian
guards my loneliness
I can´t drag myself
through no man´s land
the snow is too deep
my face is too blue
And my wild mantle
bites me whole
heavy thoughts
float celeste
Tired vermillion
burns away
too cold
too down
Poem I wrote about eating fundip like two years ago
As all you know i have a sad conversation about this "Coronavirus" thing.
Last time i have a worst fever that i lose my strength. But now i feel better that i followed my parents to do of there commands. The reality is everything but none of this wouldn't happen this today of these iredeemable our soul is needed to be protected and our planet needs to be healed like my closes friend died i miss her so much she's smart,confident,self-knowledge and very good kind girl i know she's in the better place and when i dreamed and i meet her there sleep that's a reality and souls
tbh my heart breaks for jade west and i gave her an entire backstory that i think about constantly and i am not a good writer so it just sits in my mind with nowhere to go but more of these quoted from those tiktok slideshows reminded me of her and what i think she feels so i thought i’d share with y’all and if anyone wants to talk about her with me please do i am going insane on my own
Was I really a bad person for you?
I don't burn bridges, I build them. Putting down every piece of wood, every screw going in its correct place. Admiring the beauty I built with my own two hands then walking away to come back at a later date. But I have a bad memory so the bridge is soon forgotten, until it begins to wither and decay. People attempt to pass over it only to get stuck and eventually fall into the water underneath. I opened the news to see my precious bridge I bilt so carefully caused countless deaths because I couldn't take care of it. I finally come back to the bridge but it's not what I remember. The pretty mahogany wood that used to be spotless is now covered in blood and tears from its unsuspecting victims. Screws that used to hold it together now sticking up popping the tires of everyone who dares to try to pass. I step on the bridge only for it to crack and me to fall through, the remains of the bridge falling on top of me and crushing me. I don't burn bridges, I build them and eventually I let them take me with them.

I think this is a tragedy? Sober in its irony My poor frightened phone with its ever-beating heart and failed and failing touchscreen
still gives me notifications and as I work here on my computer my terminally ill phone pings
A message telling me
my new phone has arrived and is in the mailroom
