Tangled Constellations

Here is one I wrote for a poetry slam in my block for school.I Surprisingly won.

My thoughts get louder and louder as my eyes fill with tears

My eyes, almost blinded by it all examines the stars above past the window pain that mimics cell bars

I envy these stars

Their all so alone yet they paint beauty in the night sky, where there is none in the world for me

were self hated is almost a lifestyle

One where I don't tell anyone about and the galaxies on my skin

For demons were my friends

And I was their punching bag

One were I thought I deserved nothing because my name sounded like shattering glass to the ones I thought I could love

One were I tried to save everyone around me so I could forget I was drowning

One were I would cry until I pass out because feeling breathless is heaven compared to hell pulling at my skin agonizing me to live

For my mind was tangled constellations

Familiar patterns that were like chains burying me down

Where there isn't stars

Where there isn't beauty

But I have nothing motivating me

Besides when seeing someone,so astonishing light up like stars

By the sight of me

Reminds me that there's still beauty in the world

When the stars and constellations have gone away too

For we are like stars, someone must find beauty when we are at are lowest

When everything around us is dark and cold and were alone

For we are like stars.. Connected by constellation

Alone together painting beauty around us

Even when it's cold we still shine bright

Giving someone hope to someone that there's still beauty in this world,

where there is none for them.
