Tightness in my chest
I cannot breathe.
The feeling is overwhelming,
like its taking control
Sweaty palms,
hot flashes,
cold flashes.
Everything is overwhelming.
I feel like I'm dying,
but I try to be strong.
The heartache that occurs,
the pain within my chest.
The only time I can escape,
is when I finally fall asleep.
Maybe I'll sleep my whole life away,
then I won't feel this tension inside me.
I cannot breathe,
I cannot control myself.
What is happening to me?
I always wonder to myself.

Hiding behind a mask
Hiding the hurt, Hiding the pain.
Hiding the tears, that fall like rain.
Hiding the emotions, that no one can see.
How can I control these urges tonight?
Hiding the smile, that I can no longer feel.
Hiding the pain, that no one can see.
Hiding the urges, that make me want to harm.
How can I control myself from where I used to be?
Hiding the mask, that once was a true smile.
Hiding the tears, that flood down my face.
Hiding the happiness, that buries me now with sadness.
How can I control the pain I feel?
Hiding the scars, that Ive done to myself.
Hiding the memories, that ruined my life.
Hiding the panic, that I now feel.
How can I control

The love of my Life
My love for you
is forever to stay
My love of this world
brings the light to my darkness.
My love for you
is here at last.
To show this world
that we grow stronger each time.
My love for you
is like a thousand words
Each and every day
I say how much I care
My love for you
is like the sunlight days
You bring happiness
to me each and every day
My love for you
grows stronger each day.
For you are the one
That I've always loved from the start.
Depression is an ocean,
unpredictable and unwavering.
Its depths are deep.
Its Highs are shallow.
Depression is the sky,
amazing and determined.
Its depths reach our soul.
Its highs touch the heavens.
Depression is the sun,
Mysterious and huge.
Its depths are unimaginable.
Its Highs wish to swallow the earth.
Depression is...me...is it you?
Lay down your right to be human.
Put on a dazzling smile so that no one can see your pain.
You hide it all so well, but underneath your shirt you can still feel the scars.
No one knows what it is like to be you.
Your smile is but one in a billion,
A mask that you wear to ward off the questions.
Your scars are your war paint,
But this is a losing battle.
You are sent to face the demons all alone, though they will never leave your side.
So keep that pretty smile steady,
And don't let one tear drop from those stormy eyes.
Put on your war paint and go out into the world, where your smile makes you just like them.

Self Harm Monologue
You call me a 'freak'.
A 'weirdo'.
A 'pathetic emo loser'.
Well guess what?
I don't care.
What makes you think I care?
Who are you to question me- to judge.
You don't have that right.
That privilege.
You strut up to me-
Fag in hand,
and always-always,
in the same nagging, persistent tone,
with the same words that make me want to claw out my eyes in disbelief, you ask me..
" Do you cut yourself?"
And it goes on.
And ON.
Pfft- like I haven't heard you.
...
I relent.
"Yes" is always my reply.
Your tedious response, as always- is the same.
"That's sick!"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah- Im sick.
Pfft, look at me.
So my skin

What Is Wrong With Me?
What Is Wrong With Me?
What is Wrong with me?
Why do I feel this way?
What happened when I was young that
Makes me do what I do today?
What is Wrong with me?
That I'd keep my hair short?
That I only wear men's jeans
And have no bras to sport?
What is Wrong with me?
That I chase after dreams?
That I feel Wrong inside
And bat for both teams?
What is Wrong with me?
That I have no fear
When someone rushes me
And calls me queer?
What is Wrong with me?
That I fear no Hell?
That I believe I'm right
And good and well?
What is Wrong with me?
That my mind will see
Something different from
How others see me?
What is Wrong with me?
That I hold my

Let the Fall Make You Stronger.
"Hey! Are you all right?"
"Sure, why wouldn't I be?"
"Um...because you just fell from the roof of the hou-"
"See, that's where you're wrong. I didn't fall. The floor challenged me and I accepted."
"And how did that go for you?"
"The floor won. But only because it had the advantage."
"Of being non sentient and vast in size, along with the fact that there is a freaking storm out!!"
"Nope. I just attacked from the wrong position."
"Backwards?"
"I overestimated my skills."
"I'll say. You're bleeding!"
"Only a little. Ask me again."
"What?"
"If I'm fine."
"Are you?"
"Nope."
"Is it because you're bleeding?"
"You're supposed to ask
