Goodbye

Goodbye

It's sad you know
How times have changed
How life can be so different

Losing Touch

My contacts app tells me
that we are losing touch.
Little does it know
I've already been chucked.

Depression is an iceberg

Sadness evolves
Sadness expands
It turns into a sinking ship
That hits an iceberg called depression

Purgatory

You ask me how I'm feeling
I smile and say I'm fine
But inside all I'm thinking
Is hold it together, don't whine.

Surprise!

Every time I see the name I cry
I struggle to think of it without a sigh
I've worked hard to put it out of my mind
And yet it creeps up and takes me by surprise.

Night

I want to cry
I want to die
I want to sleep
This night away.

The scariest thing of all.

Do you know what it's like
to be scared?
Every day to wonder.

Betrayed

How can someone
Just decide
They no longer
Want to know you?

Despair

These feelings that fill me
They aren't so good
These feelings that threaten to overtake me
They absorb everything else

Desolate

It's devastating
When a person you love
Shuts you out.

Insomnia

It's 2 am,
The clock is ticking
And yet
Here I lie wide awake

Walk away

The revelation is sudden
It comes as news
I am not the problem
The issue to solve?

Conflicting emotions

I know I've done the right thing by me
So why does it feel so bad?
I know that for my peace of mind
And to keep my sanity strong
I must do what I have done.

Broken

I feel despair cascading through me
Like waves rolling onto the beach
Slow and steady yet ever increasing
Taking over the sandy shore

Camouflage

Camouflage

They ask me how I am.
I smile and reply,
I'm fine.
I hide my pain and sorrow,
I cannot show the truth.
I fear the truth would
Hurt the ones I love.

Rejection - a Haiku

Now I understand
that the fear of rejection
governs my actions.

Citations

I wander lonely as a cloud
oh shit that line's not mine!
Now I must find a way
to cite it in my rhyme.

Solitude

Once I was a lonely girl
Immersed in my own thoughts
I spent my time pondering
The meaning of this life.
