bananabread NoviceErase my fears
Set me free
Help me escape
From my past
I'm buried in lies
My false identity
A mask I wear all the time
One on top of the last
I know why the caged bird sings
The longing of freedom
Things it can never have
Wanting it's life to end fast -
bananabread NoviceYou press hard enough
Expecting a diamond
When you go to look at me
All your ever gonna get is stone
Relinquish your hold
Step away for a while
Come back when I'm ready
And see what unfolds -
bananabread NoviceSorry, I'm not perfect
Sorry, I can't be who you want me to be
Sorry, everything I do is a disappointment
Sorry, I'm a teenager
Sorry, I don't tell you what I'm thinking
Sorry, You didn't mold me to your exact image
Sorry, You can't take me for who I am
Sorry... I'm not sorry -
bananabread NoviceI stand in the middle of a crowd
Yet I'm a thousand miles away
Is it me or them?
I can't tell
They never hear me when I talk
Yet I'm intent on every one of theirs
Is it because I'm different?
Maybe it's because I fell
I live in my imaginary world
Only because it's better than this one
Is that so bad?
Just take my soul and sell
Sometimes I just don't get people
Most of the time they don't get me
Are they all against me?
Just let me throw my heart in my well
Can someone please answer these questions I have
They'll haunt me forever either way
At least honesty is better than lies
Maybe then I can excel -
If you don't mind, I'd gladly post a poem. :) It's pretty morbid but, makes sense. :P
Wake up, Wake up
Under the Tree.
Who do you find?
You have found me.
Wake up, Wake up
Child of Glee.
Where have you been?
You're hiding from me.
Wake up, Wake up
Look around and see.
Do you see dreams?
That's because of He.
Wake up, Wake up
My voice shall chant.
Wake up, Wake up
An endless song.
Wake up, Make up
You never can.
Wake up, Wake up
It's been Death all along. -
Second to last stanza: Wake**
-
bananabread NoviceI like it :)
There are chains wrapped around my wrists
Weighing me down
Preventing me from standing up
I've tried for so long to break free
To fly above it all
And leave this all behind
I'm tired, so tired
I've given up trying
I'm tired, too tired
To try and escape for real -
LuckyFirefly NewbieWoah. That poem "Sorry..." is AMAZING! I love it! You've got yourself a fan who wants more!
-
bananabread NoviceThanks @LuckyFirefly! I know it's been a while but I haven't been able to post in a while.
I tremble with the weight of grief
Something I've been avoiding
Stepping around your absence
Not wanting to break my faade
I give myself away
To the meaningless fantasies
I never wanted to face this
Not right now
But if I had to admit the truth
I never would want to -
This is what I get for seeing
And for living life
This is what I get for dreaming
I shouldn't ask why
My fault for scheming
All I can ask is why !
To much believing!and dreaming and scheming. -
Depression -
I am stressed.
I am depressed .
I am strong.
Not for long.
I hate him.
My happiness runs dim.
I am sad.
I am mad.
Am I Totally angry at them?
*keeps sowing the hem*
What's wrong with me?
They hate me it seems. -
bananabread Novice@Danny, I like them keep on going
Floating, yet not
Next to you, yet gone
Saying something, yet voiceless
In front of you, yet invisible
Drifting off into a numb place
I wish to be found
But I won't cry out
I am with no real emotions
Not even sadness
I cry with no feeling
Poke me with your questions
I've given you all that's needed to save
It's up to you to notice
Floating, yet not
Next to you, yet gone
Saying something, yet voiceless
In front of you, yet invisible -
bananabread NoviceSpeak my words for me
I don't know how to say them
Even if I did
No one would hear
If I was quiet would you notice?
My empty words turned to empty voice
Empty voice to empty mind
Empty mind to empty presence
I'm not here
Nor my words
Don't listen
Don't look -
bananabread NoviceI've admitted it once
I don't want to again
With your pity on me
Yet with no help at all
The problem is everything
And nothing at the same time
Don't bother me
But don't leave me
My head is a wreck
My body's a battlefield
And my words are a lie
What will change if I admit this?
Can I get help?
Or will I be left out to struggle?
I don't know what I want
I don't know how to help
I don't know how to confront you
with the problems of my illness -
Wrap me up like an abandon child
Take me into your arms without judgment
Save me from my thoughts I don't want them anymore
Keep me in the warmth of happiness
Help me find my so called heart
And when you're done
Wrap me in a bow and send it my way
