Have you ever felt like a failure?
Have you ever felt like you were not good enough?
Have you ever felt like a burden?
The chills, like spikes, you feel in your spine,
Does it suck you deeper into yourself?
Almost as if you weren't you?
Almost as if you are watching you,
Wondering why you feel so detached?
That kind of sadness is the worst,
The one that engulfs you suddenly but so deep.
It leaves you frustrated,
And angry,
And sad,
And confused,
But most of all, it leaves you feeling helpless.
It tears you apart from the inside,
Eating away on your flesh,
Almost like a parasite.
And you just bear it,
Because every time you screamed for help,
You were ignored,
So, you've learned that keeping it in
Makes everyone happy.
And you bottle your feelings,
Then bury it deep,
And wander far, far away from it,
That way, it stays buried and never to be found.
But the tears that were collected in the bottle
Can not be withheld
As someone confidently opens the bottle,
Flooding you with all the sorrow and heartache,
But they collect you in their arms
And whisper to you,
"I am always here."

Poems
PoetryJust some poems that I come up with. They are mostly written at the spur of the moment, so I'm very sorry if I offend anyone with my writing. And some parts are a little triggering, so if you don't want to read those poems you can just skip them :)...
