#shit poetry

[mothoclock]

I want to tell you things

with my tongue

without making any sound at all

[wandaslovey]

hi loves <3 this is very different than anything i’ve ever written for my blog - i hope that’s okay. i wanted to publish it somewhere, even though poetry is so not my strong suit.

TW: may be a little triggering for some to read (take care of yourself love🤍)

you know it’s bad

you know it’s bad when you step into the shower and suddenly five minutes becomes thirty

you know it’s bad when the songs you used to love, now simply fade into the background,

becoming white noise for your even louder thoughts

you know it’s bad when your favorite food loses its potency,

the flavor just sitting there dully on your tongue

you know it’s bad when the best of your comfort characters provide the same feeling as a stranger passing you on the sidewalk

you know it’s bad when you no longer believe the kind words of the ones you love and care about,

the only ones you now believe, the ones that only make you sink further into a black hole

you know it’s bad when as you sit there doing nothing,

the stillness does nil to calm the pit of anxiety in your chest

you know it’s bad when your favorite hobby seems like the most daunting task,

the things you love dearly losing their potency to restore you back to normal

you know it’s bad when the feelings you once felt to their fullest extent barely even register,

your emotions simply whispers of their true form

you know it’s bad when indifference to everything becomes more normal than anything else

and the worst part? you can acknowledge that you know it’s bad, but then what -

i know it’s bad, but how can i not let it consume me?

i want to grow old with you,

until the clothes we share are faded and stretched in all the wrong places, print rubbing off, but we still wear them in the house to pay homage to the (questionable) fashion sense we shared in our early twenties.

i want to grow old with you,

until these big dreams of ours one day become fond memories which we sit and reminisce with one photo album, one blanket, two mugs of coffee and three dogs resting at our feet.

i want to grow old with you,

until one day our child comes home from school, beaming with excitement, and tells us she doesn’t want a boring job - she wants to be a creative, just like her mums.

i want to grow old with you,

and we will never once find anything to argue about, because we both know that the sweetest part of this life is, and always has been, loving each other.

Sorry, I have amazing music taste and kissable lips....wanna make out?

[rins-batcave]

Days blur together

Empty, and bleak

Time passes slowly

Yet I didn’t even see

[iboughtyomamaflowers]

Guys I just remembered that years ago I wrote a poem about a boy being lost in the woods and it was like my favourite thing for months I totally have to post this wait let me find it

[manybrokenquills]

Yes,

I can talk.

I can force the words out of my mouth.

I can take a deep breath and make my vocal cords vibrate.

I can gather my thoughts and tell you.

But I can't talk.

There's so much to talk about.

I have so many thoughts.

But I can't talk.

I can't.

And sometimes that hurts.

Because

I wanna tell!!

I have so much to tell people!!

I want others to experience what I am!!

I want my world to be known!!

I want you to see the sun how I do!!

I want you to see you how I do!!

But like a dog who's collar zaps if they bark,

I can't.

I just can't.

So, I stick to poems,

I stick to DMs,

I stick to writing.

I still can't talk.

I still can't tell.

But, by God,

I can write.

[iloveyouitsruiningmylife]

was it truly serendipity?

when you crashed into me

I may be enigmatic

i may let my anger become static

but i held you close

now i only hold your ghost

i thought we were ineffable

but you wrote us like a fable

that begged to be seen

alas my world was not as keen

i chose solitude on my languid days

that caused you a pain you’d never say

so i called your barbed mind resplendent

even if i never meant it

you meant each thing you said

cause you were fucked in the head

so evidently your mothers puppetry

bleeding into you and me

did that mean loving me was a source of contention?

because even through your apprehension

you still chose to desert

the one that loved you first

[mothoclock]

I would follow you anywhere

as long as I could hold your hand

[haydsbabes]

you breathe next to me and i envelope myself in your warmth

you told me, the other day, that when two lovers are laid together, their heartbeats sync up.

i never believed this until i met you.

you lay my head on your chest with a soft ‘listen’ and i do so, a smile filling my cheeks and a warmth filling my chest

i feel it and i hear it and i know it is ours to keep forever.

[my-moony-and-padfoot]

But that's not me

The fact that you won't know me

Won't know the true me

Me. Just me.

It makes me sad.

It really does

I'll always be your sister

Sister

Why not just sibling?

I'll always be your little girl

Daughter

Why not just child?

My eyes fill with tears

At the mere thought

Hot and stingy, knowing you could never

Could never love me

I don't know what you'll do,

If I marry Harriet and not Harry.

Will you be mad?

Don't be mad

I love you

I wish you could

Could love me, me

Me being me and only me

Maybe you'd make an exception?

Just for me?

I wish

[behometonight]

Any good

But I can't believe you love me

When you're surrounded by bombshells

And creative geniuses

And I am

Half ugly half pretty

On my left side

How would you bust on me

On the right?

And I am stuck in the house

Painting over

Years of no talent

With even less skill

Than before,

Tell me how will you love

A nameless girl?

I dont even remember who I was

I know I was happy

But I was deluded

I thought god

Was a woman

I thought

Women were better than men

(Now the doctor says

People are equal)

I was shooting people

Already dead

I was a psychopath

In depth

And you didn't love me

I know you didn't love me

So how would you now?

See I know youre lying

Because I'm a sick fuck

That's all I am

I am a dire woman

With white eyeliner

Trying to cover

The stupidity

The lack of words

The psychosis had me clanging

Sentences devoid of sense

No wonder I almost failed school

I really dont know how I didn't fail school

But I was happy

I thought I had you

Of course i didn't

Because you were always missing

And now I still want you

After the pills

The hospitals

The striptease of mania

And I know you don't love me

Because now

I know I was never any good.

[innertragedycrown]

I would

I'd write you a poem

About how you're the stars in the sky

About how you are my home

About how happy I am that you're mine

And that you love me too

But I'm sure you already know

With every look I give you

[100percentevil]

I dribk the fuckind water

Ow ow ow oe ow

Hate fills my bones.

[chris-continues]

I do as I see fit,

And others are welcomed to do their own bidding

But I believe there is no point praying to the sky

For change that will only occur on ground.
