Scary.

The pouring rain, The howling wind, The weather's angry call. The cackling trees, The groaning spines, The tallest trunk could fall. The angry moans, The wildest screams, The window seems so frail.

Run.

If I could run a million miles,. Id escape the drama and the fake smiles,. I'd sit on top of a mountain peak,. No one there for me to speak,. Just me alone to sit and wonder,.

Don't worry, I won't miss you at all, I have online friends, who continue to call. They never hate me or tell me I'm wrong, the sounds of my typing, such a beautiful song.

To The Broken End

In the deep dark woods. Hidden behind layers. And layers. Of mossy pillars. Stands a fallen angel. Her wings chipped. Her halo rusted. Her eyes blank. Empty. No emotions. She stays there.

Nose pressed to the cold glass Can this be real... This can't last?. I'm losing you, my best friend. We can try to ignore it, try to pretend. But I'm on one side, and your on the other.

I Know.

I know how it feels. To wait all day. Just so you can fall apart. To put a smile on your face. To hide your true emotions. Just so no one asks. I know how it feels. To do your best to stop the tears.

No One Noticed

No one noticed Those sad, sad eyes They saw her smile And believed her lies, No one noticed She was so alone How trapped she felt, How hurt she'd grown, No one noticed The pain she hid Why should...

Trapped

All I see is darkness, Where can I find light. Here it is full of bleakness, I want to also smile bright. Maybe I was cursed, Did I prick my finger. I hid tears ready to burst, Your remarks linger.

Lonely Island

I want to stand tall. But I feel hindered. My wooden stilts. Have cracked and splintered. Words fly out like broken glass. Reckless. Chaotic. Streams of black mascara. Run down my face.

Homeless

Throat dry, hands numb, Sitting there, looking dumb. White face, snowflake tender. Peaky face, small and slender. Dirty windows, dusty floors, Sleeping out beside shop doors.

Bottled Up

I keep things bottled up, It's hard for me to tell someone how I really feel. I'm scared of getting judged, and I most certainly don't want opinions of others thrown at me.

Now You're Gone

As I fall There's no one there to catch me. As I breathe The air seems cold and stale. As I blink I feel I've missed something. As I listen All I hear is defending silence.

Walking Again

The tears are black. My wounds are red. I sit in a huddle, With a pounding head. My ragged breath, Shows I'm insecure. As I try to forget, And rid of the pressure. My vibrates - Friends asking why.

Oscar

I am in Bletchley, dressed all in black As the bell tolls softly in the distance Past hushed clusters of drifting blackbirds, Flying South, Ashes become dust And a dull silence hangs deadened...

Open Arms

Will you welcome me. Soon as your eyes will see. Or will you tease me. Meaning that it wasn't meant to be. Standing outside in this cold. No-one to hug, no-one to hold. Snowing outside with misty fog.

Modern Day Sleeping Beauty

#OpussWeeklyChallenge When I opened my eyes I knew it had happened again. I knew I'd fallen asleep. This time, judging by the fine layer of dust about my bedroom, it had been a good while.

Soundproof Mind

I wanna retreat inside. Go hide. In a place my own. Be alone. Not be seen. It feels freeing. I'm in my mind. Retract from time. Hide in thought. Buried and lost. None can see. The hidden me.
