Slowly falling apart.

 Guys...this is a poem i wrote on bullying. It's not that great, but that's not the point. I hope the words speak for themselves.

 

I can feel the pieces of me falling apart.

It scares me, but i can't hold onto them.

Grasping wildly, frantically, in need of an anchor.

What meets my fingers is now something i call friend.

Emptiness.

 

I can see the pieces of me falling apart.

Scars make us who we are...they make us stronger,

is what you say when you strike me over and over again.

Sticks and stones wont break my bones, words can't bring me down,

when the tears won't stop streaming out, is what i remind myself.

Tears.

 

You sit there watching me fall apart.

That cold smile on your face, arms crossed against your chest.

I wonder how much pleasure you gain...

watching me fall apart.

Slowly.

 

Here i am barely holding on.

My fingers losing their grip from the numbness...

the reasons that are left for me to stay.

When it's so easy to end it all,

what is it that's holding me back?

Nothing.

 

You say what you want...

and i sit here and listen...

 

Slowly falling apart.

:'( I know how you feel. I have a blog about this. It's my latest one. It feels like everything around you is getting bleaker and slowly crumbling huh?
I get it. 100%.
But keep your head up. Just stay positive.

Hi! I wrote this awhile back, maybe it will help you? :

Hold on to the Brighter Day

Life isn't always grayscale.

Life isn't always over cast.

Your dad can't beat you forever and your scars can only fade.

If your situation is life threatening, show life that you're stronger.

If society has made you weak, show society that you can hold out longer.

Yonder - A heaven awaits, if only you'd hold on for a Brighter Day.

Your poem was beautiful, far more beautiful than this, but in a dark, and sad sort of way. Are you ok? If you need someone to talk to, I'm always here <3 OK? Continue writing poetry, you're really, really good at it! But I hope to see some Positive Poetry from you, soon~!
