haggis loss love neeps nessie poetry silence thoughts

From my first efforts to get published as a teenager, to some of the things I have thought about during University... experiences of Death and loss, as well as drunken poetry rambles.

Poetry helps me to think about things that are happening in life, and it also helps me to come to terms with them.  It also helps me bring out emotions - silly, happy, sad, angry... it's all here.

I'm not a literary poet. I don't try to perfect the meter or rhyme, I just try to get the words to say what I am feeling, without being too awful! There are quite a few poems that will never see the light of day!

When I have enough work in here, I'll publish it.All Rights Reserved

Hurt Beyond Repair. by disorderpoetry

Hurt and frightened and no where to turn except for my journal. Curse words being streamed at me and you would have thought I had a father for a sailor. ~E.M.C Many poems focusing on the subject of Mental Illness, that many suffer with and the subject just isn't brought up enough. Poems focusing on a day in the shoes of a person with a mental illness and how some even ordinary simple tasks may seem not so simple to them. There may be some uplifting poems but also raw ones filled with real emotions, things I've experienced. \\ Notes from me the poet: Some aren't all poems I guess you could say but these are my feelings and maybe some of you can relate :) feel free to comment or message me with any questions, feedback or suggestions I greatly appreciate anything!

teenage mind - poetry by BFlowerR

Being a teenager is a wild ride, right? One moment, you're head-over-heels in love, and the next, you're crying over heartbreak. You're figuring out who you are, dealing with insecurities, navigating family drama, chasing independence, and wondering if your friends are your forever crew-or just passing through. "Teenage Mind" dives headfirst into all the chaos, beauty, and raw emotions of growing up. It's a collection of poems straight from the heart-sometimes messy, sometimes beautiful, but always real. If you've ever felt like your mind's a battlefield of emotions (thanks, hormones), this book gets it. It's not here to judge-it's here to tell you that you're not alone. So grab a cozy spot, hit play on your favorite sad playlist, and let "Teenage Mind" remind you that even in the madness, there's magic. Because, let's be honest, being a teenager isn't easy. But it's worth writing poetry about. ❤️

Medicine by Glam_Rock

Cutting open my heart to pour out how I feel. It comes down in floods of blood as words scatter on the floor in a jumbled mess or a pathetic attempt to explain my feelings. A book filled with all of my poetry. Enjoy the somewhat dark and somewhat light hearted rhyming poems that I have written.

Thursday by sandwichlips

The depths of my mind and dialogue of it all. My thoughts. My fakeness. My lies. My confessions. My Raw mental conversations. My weakness. My complicated life. The nonsense that creeps up in my head when I'm thinking. There is no need to understand. There is no need to feel pity. This is Thursday.

The Words I couldn't Say by -silentmochi

This is a place for me to put all the things I wish I said but I just couldn't. These are a way for me to "say" these things without actually saying them to the person I want to. I probably won't ever go back or read any of these because it's like revisiting a bad memory so don't expect much in terms of editing. Also I wouldn't consider this poetry but it is laid out that way. WARNING Talk of depression, suicide, anxiety, and self harm. Don't read if you don't like things like that and may get triggered. I don't mean to cause anyone problems of any sort, but these are the things I feel and can't help. Please keep negativity away as this is a sensitive subject for a lot of people. Thank you.

Not Just Words... by Claudushka

Not Just Words... is more than a collection of poetry...it's a raw, unfiltered journey through the landscapes of mental health, vulnerability, and resilience. Blending powerful verses with personal reflections, this book dives deep into the experiences of depression, anxiety, and the quiet battles we all fight within. For anyone who has ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or broken, these poems serve as a voice when words fail. They are a friend for the moments when life feels too heavy, and a source of hope for those searching for light in the darkness. Through every verse, I confront the shadows that have haunted me and, in doing so, invite you to reflect on your own struggles. The emotions here are real...sometimes painful, sometimes healing, but always genuine. This book isn't just a window into my soul...it's an invitation to face your own inner battles, to feel seen, and maybe even understood. How do you describe what it feels like to be human, to hurt, to heal? Maybe you don't. Maybe the words within these pages will do that for you. Not Just Words... is for anyone seeking connection, comfort, and the reassurance that they're not alone.

Screaming Into The Void by MissYanxiet

#1 in poetry :) #1 in free verse :) Have you ever felt like it was the end? Like today was just a bad day? That no matter how many times you believe that something can happen that it just might not? That no one gives a damn at all? That all you do is love but don't get loved in return? That you don't matter? Me too. A book full of poems that deal with anxiety, depression, self doubt, racism, discrimination, heartbreak, sadness, and many other things. "Poetry is what happens when your mind stops working, and for a moment, all you do is feel." - Atticus.

A Beautiful Disaster by beautifulxcreaturess

My story. A story full of unforgettable thoughts. I've come to terms with these certain parts of my life. This is for the people who decide to read my poetry.

Just Jenny by DreamingForAlaska

Just a glimpse into my mind. Or if you want a better synopsis, read below. I like to type out my feelings into poems with no actual structure. I hope to make you laugh sometime and even cry because I just do. Warning: these come from angsty teenager Jenny. (Formally: Jenny's Poetry, Short Things, Words From A Teenager, Somewhere Over The (Glorified) Rainbow.) The posts are short so it shouldn't take a long time to read. I really did try to use proper grammar. Sometimes. Okay, fine. It's rare-ish.
