"Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone."
- Dorothy Parker
-------------------------------------
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me." We were told that saying as kids. It is definitely not true. Words are so powerful, and although "actions speak louder than words", it is the emotion pouring off the person that you really feel how much they have insulted you.
Here I am, LinguisticallyDoomed, writing about how I feel about my appearance. Read the stanzas that express the level of my self-esteem. These words are my tears transferred onto a document, rather than a razor blade drawing blood from my skin.

Emotional Amnesia
Sometimes when I say "I'm okay", I want someone to look me in the eyes, hug me tight and say, "I know you're not". I have felt like this many times in my life; as a kid, teenager and as an adult. I have seen many things in my life and felt even more things that has been horribly depressing... But I got up. I stood up to walk on for another day. I dealt with my emotional amnesia the only way I knew I could and that was by writing it out into poetry. I wanted to forget my pain and forget what I was going through. I needed that cut of the blade or a pill to drink to take everything away. My poetry became both my pill and my blade... Now I share the most intimate part of myself with the world. The part of me I kept hidden in the closet. The part I never thought I would ever present to the world. Now is the time I have to stop having amnesia about my emotions. It is time to learn, to better myself and to stand up and remember the things that I shut out like a voluntary amnesia all these years. Those who are offended after reading this - f**k you! If you are sad with me and willing to cut your wrist - I know how you feel! If you just enjoy the words - I love you! #679 in Poetry on 17/03/2018 #779 in Poetry on 18/03/2018 #807 in Poetry on 19/03/2018 #474 in Poetry on 22/03/2018Complete

Not Just Words...
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.
