My Living Nightmare

(Caution this deals with mental health issues)

I sit on my bed
The voices are starting again
They are relentless
They keep screaming at me

I sit and cry uncontrollably
I am all alone
No one to help me
No one to be there for me

I shout "SHUT UP!"
They continue to get worse
I feel like I'm going out of my freaking mind

I get up
I walk toward the kitchen
I grab a bottle of pills...

About this poem:
I don't mean to scare anyone with this poem. It is simply a look into what happens when someone is suicidal. I tried to paint a picture of an actual event. This happened to me ten years ago. What I wrote doesn't brake the rules. I've read them before I posted this poem. It say nothing about not posting about suicide.

You Were There

I felt so alone
Nobody cared
But then I met you
And you were there

My life was in shambles
I cried all the time
And then I met you
And you were there

It feels good to have friends
Someone who will care
Especially you
And I'm glad that you're there

This poem is dedicated to Tiffany.

Have You Ever

Have you ever been in love?
Have you ever felt that cringe?
That feeling from above?
That very special zing?

Have you ever seen the stars?
Just gazing in the sky?
Like driving a fast car
The time just passes by

Have you ever met that girl?
The one you always think about?
The one that rocks your world?
The one you cannot live without?

A Sad Memory

You look at me
I know what you're thinking
I can feel the tears streaming down my face

I don't know what to say
My lips are speechless
(No air in my lungs)

You ask me to leave
I know I'm not the one you want
I'm not your type
I have moral values

I'm motionless
Frozen in time

(He's coming)
Your boyfriend
The one you just told me about last night

He holds your hand
(I feel hatred inside)
I want to punch him in the face

I walk away
I start to feel better
I know someone's out there

Someone to love
Someone who will love me
Accept me for who I am

I smile
I know I'll be okay
The world is waiting
I think I hear a voice cry out

But perhaps it's just a whisper...

About this poem:
The back story behind this is too long to tell. Basically, I really liked a girl in tenth grade. The night before this happened, I had called her to ask her out over the phone. Right before I was about to ask, she said she had something to tell me. She said she already had a boyfriend and the reason she didn't tell me was because they didn't know if they could work things out. I was crushed, but I denied it. So the next day I arrived to school already angry. And this is what happened.

You Mean The World To Me

You have always been there for me
You've kept me going
When nothing else would

When it rains
You're my umbrella
When it's windy
You're my rock

When I feel down
You bring me back up
When I feel like I've lost everything
You've returned it

I owe it all to you
You've kept me going
Even when I thought I couldn't

And now my life is in shambles
My world is falling apart
I've lost all hope
Of ever finding true love

You are my friend
You are my family
And I want you to know
You mean the world to me

About this poem:
For a time, I really liked my best friend. I told her using this poem. It didn't work out. We're still friends, but now we're back to just being friends. I just thought I'd share this poem because I plan to put all my poems on this site. They describe my life.

I Miss You

I feel incomplete with you not around
I miss you all the time
I remember the times we had
Subway, talking about everything

I hear a song
It reminds me of you
The pain I feel
That you're not around

I know you're in Heaven
Smiling down
Remembering
Waiting

I try not to think
About the way I feel
But sometimes it's hard
Because you're not around

But I know I'll be alright
For when I die of old age
We'll be reunited
Up in Heaven

I dedicate this poem to my grandfather who I miss very much

About this poem:
I wrote this poem about my grandfather who died from prostate cancer four years ago. He was my best friend. We went everywhere together. When he died, I lost it. But I kept my emotions inside outside the home.
It's hard not having him around. Especially around the holidays. He died four days before Easter. The only good thing is he went in his sleep. Unfortunately, my grandmother had to find him the next morning. He slept in a hospital bed downstairs in his house because he got so bad he couldn't even walk up stairs. He went from being outdoors active everyday to laying in a freaking bed all day and I didn't even visit him because I couldn't see him in that state he was in! I break down and cry sometimes because it gets unbearable. Luckily I have a great family support system. But my grandmother and I get emotional together because we're very close.
