My body feels foreign
It disgusts me
Will I ever love myself
Will I ever find a way
To not hate myself again today
Nyx
My body feels foreign
It disgusts me
Will I ever love myself
Will I ever find a way
To not hate myself again today
Nyx
I cannot sleep tonight
I lay here in the dark
Restless in this skin
I try to be present
But I never really am
Nyx
My world has changed again
Trying to find my home
Feeling so alone
The air sweeps me off my feet
I feel defeated, I just want to sleep
Where do you go
When you no longer know
Where you belong
No one sees me
As I fade away
There is no one watching
There is no one left
Nyx
I am sitting here
Alone again
Silent and still
I wish I could say
That I am fine
But I would only be lying
Let them sleep
As I bury the pain again
Let the apathy set it
So I can wake up again tomorrow
I feel the emptiness fill me
As I listen to the sounds of the night
As I embrace the serenity of the darkness
And find comfort in the stars
In a few hours a new day will start
Once again I am reminded
What being alone means
I am lost in my own world
Where hope lies within my dreams
Nyx
Sometimes despair drags me down
Through this haze of memories
Through years of turmoil
My body sinks
Until it is anchored down
Then the room fills with water
As I lay chained to the ground
Once again I gulp for air
Until I can no longer breathe
This is when the emptiness comes
This is when my soul is gone
Nyx
I have moments of peace
They do not last long
Then I feel the pain
As I try to sing along
Sometimes words may help me
Sometimes they do not
All I know for sure
Is peace is all I have ever sought
No matter how much I have cried
No matter how much I have fought
I have yet to find it
Maybe someday I will
Maybe someday the earth will stay still
Just maybe I will find the one
To make me feel safe from it all
To protect me from harm
Maybe he will grab my hand
Before I hit the ground
At this moment I have no hope
All I do today is
Find the strength to go on
Find the strength to cope
This loneliness will stay
It must be my eternal debt to pay
I guess I just have to except it
This is just the way it is
I have lost all hope
That someday I will truly be his
Nyx
I feel numb
Lost to this world
I am fading
Fading into nothing
I no longer care
About anything at all
All I want to do is free fall
Free fall to nothing
Close my eyes
Feel the air
Pushing against my skin
I feel the darkness push me further
As I slowly disappear
Farther and farther I fall
Until I am merely mist in the air
Darkness pushes me down
He wants me to disappear
He wants me to hit the bottom
This is when peace will come
This is when I will go back
Back to where I come from
Nyx
To my readers,
This poem is how I have felt in the past, not today. Thank you all for your continued support. Peace and love. Nyx
At this moment I trust no one
At this moment my hope in others is gone
I feel no joy in the company that I keep
My heart has been ripped open
By all of the promises that have been broken
I shed no more tears today
I have said all there is to say
I have lost something I once had
I no longer have the ability to retain an emotion
I don’t even know what sadness feels like anymore
All I know is agony
Then I feel the apathy
Then I feel the rage
This is all I have left
Nyx
I feel my skin burn within
I feel my heart shatter
I cannot help but ask myself
Why does anything matter
I try to make it through each day
I try to hold my head high
I show a smile upon my face
A smile that isn’t real
All I want is peace from this life
I no longer want to feel
I wish that I was ignorant to everything
I wish that I was ignorant to everyone
I wish that I was dumb
What I wish for the most is
The ability to stay numb
To be lost to this world forever
To float away in the sky
To say, so long and farewell
Just to say goodbye
Nyx
I exist as a shell
My soul in eternal hell
The pain is too much
So I shut it all away
Lost again today
Lost my will to live
I did the best I could
I tried to distract
I tried to talk it through
I tried to push away from myself
Before I slammed the knife through
Yet here I am
Bleeding on the inside
Not bleeding out
I am grateful and yet I am not
For the battles I have fought and won
I fight for strength but today I have gone numb
Succumb to the pain I can no longer endure
All I can do is remember what I fight for
Nyx
