I wrote this poem during a really hard time in my life. I was dealing with identify crisis, trying to understand myself, and accepting who I am. It was a very difficult time for me. Now before you jump to conclusions, I did not harm myself in anyway. This is just a poem I used to express how I felt at that time. Everything is much better now and I am comfortable with who I am. To those of you out there who are having a hard time figuring out how you are, you're not alone. And trust me when I say that it will get better.

Save Me
I was drowning. I knew that. I also knew that the hands around my throat, pushing me deeper into the river water was the cause. What I didn't know was who was drowning me and why. It hurt thinking. It hurt to do anything right now. But I still screamed under the cold water and pushed the hands away as hard as I could. It didn't have much effect. I fought and fought, but I was getting weaker, and colder. The pain was overbearing. I couldn't breathe. It was the worst pain imaginable; and as the hands that were around my neck were forcibly ripped off by some unknown force, I slipped deeper into the depths of the river. My hair was straight above me along with my arms. My eyes were open and the water burned. A darkness started to pull me under, taking the pain away. I felt a small pressure around my waist, before the darkness completely consumed me. The last thing I remember is thinking, save me.Complete
Wave (Book 2)
I had survived the first. That was then; this is now. The blindfold of so many pills slowly died away and first though my finger then my head, a passion, a hurt and a need filled me as every moment was consumed with words; every breath with wisps of ink. But they were not all captured and somewhere in the deep abyss of living, lies the unspoken, almost unfelt feelings of decades in months. This is the half-empty account off all those nights from December through into the new year and the end of March. ...I pains me to share it. But it also makes it just not my problem anymore and that is something I long for- freedom and peace. Please note that all grammatical and linguistic, as well as those in punctuation and spelling or placing of words were intentional. If you LIKE this and want me to write a commentary on each poem and picture (as in my previous collection Apfel), please show me in comments and votes :) PLEASE DO NOT COPY any of the poetry or pictures.Complete

Midnight Butterfly
"I have this friend that I care for deeply. Her boyfriend is an asshole, they would fight all the time, yet she can't find it in her to leave him for whatever reason. I try to help her but I never seem to say the right things. She killed herself, she just killed herself without leaving a note or anything. And I can't understand why she did that."Complete
