    Healing

    I never healed from it, I don’t know why
    Maybe it’s the burden that I can’t bear
    Or the countless painful memories
    The ones that feel unapproachable
    Untouchable till eternity
    The ones about the time I nearly lost me
    Then that scard me with water
    Or the articles too hard to handle

    So yeah..I never healed from it
    I don’t think I ever will
    Done great till now
    I don’t need to heal
    I can handle it
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    Curse

    Maybe it’s me
    I’m the curse of the family
    The reason that nothing is okay
    Why every day is just ages away
    I’m the reason everyone is so unhappy

    I’m the curse
    Always doing wrong
    It’s always me nothing out of ordinary
    Maybe it’s me
    Or it’s just me
    Nothing maybe to question

    I’m the curse
    Always will
    I’m sorry for who I came to be
    I’m the curse
    There the comfort of words
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    Hey, trouble!

    Last night, I caught up on the poems I had missed and oh my! You just keep getting better and better. ❤️

    Your poems are written so beautifully and yet they are sometimes so sad. You have a real knack for this. I cant wait for you to publish your own poem book one day

    Keep it up❤️

    I’m no longer telling you

    I’m no longer telling you
    You didn’t get it the first time
    When will you realise
    your guilt drowns me

    I’m no longer telling you
    You’ll make me feel bad for having a voice
    Do you really think I’d be okay with that

    I’m no longer telling you anymore
    You make me go silent
    It’s something you just willingly ignore

    I’m no longer telling you
    I guess I’ll keep you happy

    I’m no longer telling you
    I’ll just stay silent
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    Somewhere to be safe

    I needed somewhere to keep me safe
    Because someone isn’t possible
    feeling of safety gone from a young age
    from the lack of safety from people around
    Safety? Safe? I don’t know

    I don’t know what that feels like
    Who does safe feel like?
    Somewhere I’ve felt safe
    Somewhere not often
    People never
    Someone isn’t possible

    Somewhere not feeling safe
    That’s the past
    Sometimes present
    Someone not feeling safe
    That’s many
    Lots of names I could mention
    That is the current

    I needed somewhere to feel safe
    Someone did in fact give me that space
    My safe person, my safe place
    The woman, the adult who saved me
    She did in so many ways
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    I hate the phrase

    I hate this phrase
    “It won’t be like this forever”
    Tell me why I’ve felt like this for years
    Since I was 11 to be exact
    It feels cruel to say when it feels like forever

    “It won’t be like this forever”
    Does that really apply to trauma
    It’s practically a lie
    Trauma is forever
    Flashbacks are forever
    Greif is forever

    I hate that phrase
    “It won’t be like this forever”
    But it will, nothing will change
    It should be altered
    “It will be like this forever”
    Certainly in my world
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    I did it alone

    I did it alone
    I got to where I am on my own
    No one was there
    Just me, myself and I
    I learnt to stand on my own 2 feet
    It was just me

    I did it alone
    When no one was there
    I kept myself a float
    Stopped myself from drowning
    It was just me
    Just me, myself and I
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then

    Everyone

    Everyone leaves
    Everyone lies
    Everyone hurts me
    Everyone replaces me
    Everyone forgets me
    Everyone fakes to care
    Everyone says they need me but dont
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    Hiding the truth

    I cry alone every night
    Just so no one can see how broken I am
    Hiding all the secrets behind the doors
    To not let the truth be obscured
    Leaving everything in the darkest void
    The truth be known could lead to war
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    TW// mentions of suicide and self harm


    The start of the war

    The war broke out when I was 11
    Self harm emerged from the shadows
    consequences of bullying
    A void hidden in silence
    It was all just low mood to those who knew
    Never something underlying

    The war went silent when I was 15
    The teenage phase of low mood
    Suicide started to haunt my mind
    Physical bullying torn me down
    It all took a turn when the war grew
    8 suicide attempts
    but only 1 attempt was seen

    The war is still here even at 18
    But the silence isn’t much seen
    People are aware
    The struggles get told
    But secrets still to be kept untold
    Locked in the grips of the void
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free

    Awake at night

    I’m not sure if I ever sleep
    I do go to bed tho I’m always stuck awake
    Staring at those silent plain walls
    Everything stuck in time
    Constant scratching sounds
    Ding dong, ding dong
    It’s the chimes for 3am
    The floor boards creaking
    The radiators on full blast
    My anxiety starts to waken
    Want to hurt me… go ahead
    Wish to bully me…I’m used to it
    Want to talk crap about me…go on then
    Want to make me cry…feel free
