If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

8 poems·Since February 2016

I only write what I feel, and when I write it always seems depressing. That is only because I don't show my depression all the time. So I write parts of me away and truth.

Hidden

February 14, 2016

They say I'll be fine,
they say it's okay to cry.
Do they lie?
It's suffocating in the dead of night.
I want to start and cry,
the water that falls off my face,
the salt like water.
Wounds that have to heal,
screeching to someone to hear me.
In this empty place,
that does not exist.
Only in my imagination.
It is that,
that I have let go.
That darkness,
that I released from it's sleep.
I must release what I hid.
