There is one thing we fail at
An thats being human
Trapped in sin is where we lie
Tears from heaven fall from the sky while the devil reaches from the ground
Slowly ripping away at the fabric of life
But he can never break us
For our souls belong to thyself
The gift we received but don't deserve
Though we all need help
Screams of disaster and faith
Through hardship we find something
Ourselves.. the strength to look past our differences and come togethor instead of trapped in hell
We must find the truth
Even though it's plain to see
We all are privileged
Just to be
So give thanks everyday
See in color instead of grey
Light instead of dark
S
I'm all sold up with stock
Got no room to share
There's a bullet with my name
I guess there's no need to fear
Only for my family
And the ones that I hold dear
But I think that its our time
Time to take over the new year
There is no time to stop
I'll hold on to this shell till this is clear
No more meaningless gravestones
Or my world will just disappear
Like a ship without a wheel
You will sink to the bottom
Because you have lost your ability to steer
But keep your eyes on the prize
For one wrong step
You'll be killed
Don't lose this one shot
Through the dark
Through the pain and suffering
The times of despair
The times when life is not fair
When it seems
Like the only option
Is to disappear
You will rise
Like a Phoenix
From the ashes
Free from fear
Free from sorrow
Free from tears
Replaced by only the light
And the people you hold dear
Hold onto this
For the dark is always near
But with time
You will burn brighter
Than anyone
And this is clear

Deeply sad I am an anchor
Without the weight I'll float away
I live in a bubble
Of disconnection
and emotional decay
I knock on glass
but it makes no sound
I scream - LET ME OUT! -
but silence says nothing,
there's no one around.
I'm so used to feeling lonely,
that it's become my friend,
I feel it watching me,
with distant affection
I say nothing to you
and so you have no clue
that some days I'm going to kill myself
and other days
I'm just blue
I don't want your help,
or a lending hand
you don't know how to listen
and I don't know how to trust
You see,
I'm a doubting thomas
I doubt anyone
is as sincere as me.
It feels good when I'm

Broken Butterflies
Go to sleep, and close your eyes,
And dream of broken butterflies.
That tore their wings against a thorn.
You know the pain that they have borne.
Silver metal, shine so bright.
Scarlet blood, that feels so right.
Dream of that blood trickling down.
And wake up just before you drown.
The moonlight’s shining off your tears.
As you bleed out your own worst fears.
So tonight when you start to cry,
Whisper the cutters’ lullaby.
Hushabye baby, you’re almost dead.
You don’t have a pulse and your pillow is read.
Your family hates you, your friends let you bleed.
Sleep tight with a knife, cause it’s all tha
Save me if I come to be my demons,
I am seeing all of the problems inside my head,
Long I have noticed what has never been,
Too many things I have discovered and found,
I watched as my soul burned to the ground,
I danced in the ashes as they fell down,
No longer will I stand before the weak,
I was sinking and I felt so crazy,
No one could ever know the real me,
Drowned my colors along with my feelings,
We are one and the same,
You take away the pain,
Once again you made everything okay,
I will always be my own worst enemy,
But you take all of the pain away,
Save me, before I lose myself again,
Save me from the demons.
-Danielle Carver
Angry red and white lines cross my flesh.
The most recent is December,
but most go back years.
They may fade,
but I will always see them.
What others who see them think is beyond me.
I alternately love and scorn them.
How could anyone else see them as anything less than Pain?
Someone asked me if I'd ever forget him.
I wanted to say no,
but all of my missing pieces,
Lost Time,
and Locked Doors wouldn't let me promise.
There were people I once cared for
that I can no longer recall as anything other than a vague memory.
Somehow this strikes me as a sad thing.
There are things I want to know.
Questions I want to ask.
I'm afraid of the Answers.
I search for myself in the vast emptiness.
Darkness and shattered pieces are all I find.
I feel like a ghost.
Like an imaginary person.
My brain and skin are numb.
My heart is cold.
There is nothing here.
I contemplate feelings.
Emotions.
What makes a Person a Person?
What defines Real from Imaginary?
Is it touch?
I decide to see.
The blade cuts my skin.
Blood flows.
Pain is practically nonexistent.
It doesn't hurt.
Does that mean I'm not real?
I listen to music,
but whatever energy it has is adding to the cold.
To the empty.
All I am is numb,
no matter what I think about.
All I can do is wonder...
What now?
Scars can fade over time,
but my desire for them only grows.
The pain is so faint these days,
it doesn't work at all.
That doesn't kill the desire for them though.
If anything,
the need to feel is even worse.
More.
Longer.
Deeper.
Everywhere.
Can't have that.
Would look like a freak.
Would feel like a monster.
But worse,
would be locked away forever.
Sorrows climb my aching heart,
and music vibrates through my being.
I fight myself.
Win or lose matters not.
I am a casualty.
