It Was You?
I thought I could trust you
I thought you were my best friend
My only friend
Why would you start a rumor?
Why would you say that?
It's not true at all
I don't want to believe this
Believe you could do this
But what can I do?
~Soul

Rising from the ashes, a Phoenix I shall be,
The flames of despair might kill me,
But it won't keep me down.
Rising from the flames, a Phoenix is my symbol,
Stronger I will grow, resilient is my will.
Beneath the moonlit sky, i will soar so high,
Painting the skies in hues,
My masterpiece of brilliance,
The colors of my bruises,
Show the story of my battles,
And of my perseverance.
Rising from ashes, a Phoenix I am now,
Building up my strength,
To take down all my demons.

In This Cell
The mind is a dangerous place
It says things I want to erase
So loud, I'm trapped in it
Though I won't admit
I'm fine, I'm fine, not stuck at all
Because you don't need to know the fall
I'll walk in circles around this cell
Not showing anyone it's a living hell
~Soul
Happy Halloween 🎃
Setting is in some type of prison cell

Painful Embrace
His arms wrapped around me
Even though I asked him not to
His smile is wide as he talks
While I'm here trying to escape
I pull on his arms to get loose
But to no luck
Long forgotten what he's saying
When I'm as uncomfortable as this
He's been told I don't like this
But he does it anyway
Our parents aren't much help
If anything, they encourage
I've voiced my dismay
But I'm forced to except it
~Soul
Start or end with someone getting a hug

Trying something a little different
Using writing prompts for inspiration
Life Goes By
They act like they're busy
Walking around, ignoring,
Avoiding the apology
Like nothing happened
I watch them through broken eyes
Hoping they look away
But life goes by
And they won't say anything

Porch Sit
On a small porch in the backyard
Sits a lone dog waiting for me at the door
Wanting to sit and watch the world go by
Even though there's not much to see
Just a bit of the road and the neighbor's house
But he loves it none the less
Sitting with me and cuddling up
Ready to stay until night falls

Alive
I'm in a moment of my life
Where I don't want to live, but don't want to die
But do I want to use the knife?
Be ready to say good bye?
I guess what I mean is I accept death,
Being ready when it occurs
And ready to take my last breath
While everything blurs

The Glass Child
"Sorry, your brother needs me"
"This is important, maybe another time"
Always told to me, no matter how much I plea
I want your attention, is that a crime?
You act like I'm see through
Like you don't know I'm there
Is that true?
If something happened, would you even care?
What can a do to get your attention?
Maybe a broken arm, a bit of poison?
How I want to spill crimson
Then, I can be the main focus and not a gremlin
But instead, I feel made out of glass
Where no one sees me
Everyone is a pain in the ass
I guess its ment to be

Hoodie Time
As the weather gets colder,
And you my baby are getting older,
I get out your hoodie.
You had it since you were a baby,
But now, you walk a little weakly.
You now have a hard time keeping warm
So the hoodie is the norm.

What am I?
Love
Something everyone feels
Right?
Then what does it feel like?
Why don't I feel it?
Am I broken?
I never felt that way
Everyone says I'll find it eventually
But, what if I don't?
Do I have to feel it?
Do I have to find love?
Nowadays, I feel fine on my own
I think today, I know what I am

Loved
You used to mean everything to me
Now you mean nothing
What happened?
Depression.
I can't feel how I used to
I can't love what I used to
I can't be who I used to be
No matter how much I try
:(

My First Memory
Positivity. Family. Happiness
Childhood. Fun. Love.
Right?
Then why do I remember screaming?
Mean words and negativity?
The sound of my mother's voice
Saying she's to busy for me
That my brother's problem
Was more important
The sound of my tears
Hitting the book in hand
My favorite book
That I wanted her to read
I sat in my door way
Book long forgotten
Thinking what I want
Isn't worth my parent's time

Bliss
They say ignorance is bliss
Unless you're the one being ignored
Feels like falling into an abyss
Unfortunately, it's nothing new
Nothing to reminence
They say their friends
But they were the first
Ignored all your extends
Until you couldn't anymore
All you can do is pretend

Protection
I say I hate you
And I wouldn't care if something happened
But as soon as someone else talks
I can't promise they'll be cushioned
You are mine
I don't care about my reputation
If you're not safe
I'll leave them in devastation
They all already hate me
So they can voice their objections
But you, my brother,
Are worth all my protection

Just a haircut
Tw: Slight Transphobia
Hair covered the bathroom floor
All of it gone, along with the voices
She can't hear them anymore
No. Not she. They. Though no one would call them that

The pills
Tw: suicidal thoughts
Alone at midnight
Pills in hand
Knowing soon
The pain will end
But... Is it right?
To do this?
Will they care?
They say they do
Is that true?
Should she stop?
Talk to them?
One way to find out.
Put the pills away
Try again another day

Space Invader
Tw: "Nice Guy Syndrome"
"Will you go out with me?"
Coming from this guy I've known for a year
Is he being serious? It seems unclear
I've never thought of him that way
Can I do this, keeping his emotions at bay?
No. Not with him
This situation is looking grim
Then came the yelling, the threats
Trying to force out my regrets
I had no where to go, on this slow moving bus
With lots of others looking at us
Who would have known this 6th grader
Could be this much of a space invader
~Soul
