Blade, Bottle, And Bowl

Escape is found
In a variety of muses;
Music, art, words...
And mine is none of the three

Mine are a bottle, a bowl, and blade.
When I can't sleep
I contact my therapist, Blade
Who hurts me with each word
I'll bleed
But he can't see it

I can't control the world around me
Bottle makes me realize
Why do I need I control myself
So he loosens my mind
And lets me have fun
But treats me rudely when I wake
What a headache.

Bowl is a friend with few benefits
He made me lose everything important to me
He's my relationship
I bring my mouth to him and I suck
The smoke brings me up
High.
I'm free of mind
The earth can't hold me back.
But when he's gone
I'm back to earth
Everything is worse

I'm my own pain
My escapes are my prison
Everything would stop
But I just can't drop
My worst best friends
Blade, Bottle, and Bowl.

-----DISCLAIMER-----------
This is an old poem I wrote, and I'm happy to say, I'm three years free of my worst demons, Blade, Bottle, and Bowl.

I am fifteen. I have severe ADHD. Don't let my poems confuse you. Artist, closet poet, student filmmaker. I have a blog, it's not that good. You can look at it anyway. http://avolavit.tumblr.com

The Butterfly Project

Please don't kill the butterflies, They're only ink, I know, But they all stand for much, much more, Each one is in the know.

I have a selection. Of tiny packets. Bottles. That rattle. Trinkets. Coated in colours. Sugars. Hiding bitter flavours. Maybe. A different combination. Will cure. The evils. Make me normal.

Without Words

The blank white page was staring at me, Burning a hole into my skin. Begging me to reveal my secrets Of all I've ever been. I took my pencil to the reflective page, And wrote out my full name.

This is who i am

I have not been saved. I have not been forgiven. I thought i was lost. I thought i was broken. I felt hopeless and empty inside. Save me from me and myself. I don't want to burn in this firey hell.

A Cigarette

Can't sleep. Counting sheep. Just want to forget. Give me a cigarette. So pop some pills. Giving me thrills. Just want to forget. Give me a cigarette. Eyes glazed. Mind dazed. Just want to forget.
