short poem about a girl who decides to spend her last day at a cliff
she was sitting here all day
feet dangling over the edge,
I remember thinking:
She wouldn't jump
Would she?

Fading Away ✅
Overthinking makes the voices in your head imminent and you begin to listen to them. You listen to them because they are the only thing there,the only thing telling you how it is. So you believe what they say; believe you're not worth the good things, believe you deserve the negative things that happen to you, believe that you could have stopped a bad incident from happening and believe it was your fault And that belief grows, it grows unto depressed thoughts and feelings and you start sinking until you become a shadow of your former self *********** Alexa sees life as a gloomy abyss of darkness Yes,she moved to a new city in a new state but it didn't change the mistake she did. Her past which was filled with colour is a contrast to her present bleak life The voices speak for her,her nightmares are a reminder and her attacks are her punishments Or so... she believes Blaze doesn't think his life is anything than his version of perfect He has a girlfriend,he is surrounded by two friends he would do anything for and his grades are always...perfect Until Alexa barges into his version of a perfect life and unravels the imperfections. But she's not the only one unraveling imperfections He sees the fear in her eyes,he feels a sense of protection over her and one question clouds his mind Who is Alexa Magnus and what happened to her? They'll both need help, care, confrontations from the past, patience, friendship and as they navigate through this roller coaster, they'll find discoveries that'll leave them shocked at the end. Trigger warning: Incidents of self harm is mentioned. Cover by @saphire_skye ***********************************************Complete
Mortal
I looked down the side of the building. Should I do this? I thought stepping a little farther towards safety. What have I got to lose? No one loves me, I should just stop being a waste of air. I stepped to the very edge of the building. Come on. I couldn't bring myself to just step off. My heart raced, my hair was drenched with sweat. Just do it. I stepped off, sending myself hurtling towards the pavement.Complete

Trapped in my own head
She is an outcast. She finds it easier to express what she feels in the form of writing. Whether it is poems, letters or long texts. These are poems that she writes trying to describe how it feels to live with certain mental health issues, in a world that disregards outcasts. So, these are on the darker side of the spectrum. Some poems might be distressing for some readers. I personally enjoy consuming dark content, it's kinda like a coping mechanism. I really hope none of you relate with any of these :) I'll be posting only poems here, I'll try to be as active as I can. The poems are not in any order. They are just the thoughts that pop up any time of the day. (8.11.2023) PS: Please check out 'safe space'. I need your help to make it a real safe space, readers!

My Happiness || Kusuo Saiki X Reader
Saiki Kusuo once said to himself, "I am the world's unhappiest man who has had everything snatched away since the moment of my birth." But what happens when he meets a girl who gives him trouble from time to time. A girl who knows how to shut her mind off. A girl who actually makes him feel things he have never nor ever imagined feeling. (Your Full Name) is an only child of a businessman. Her father is barely ever there for her or ever at home. At school, she's positive, joyful and a helpful friend who helps Saiki get out of situations but at home, she's not who she puts out to be. Heck, (Name) is suicidal and because of that, she gives Saiki trouble as he can read her mind but also because it's what she mostly thinks about. Saiki never thought he would ever have a crush on anyone. He never thought it would be possible yet (Name) somehow got him to fall for her. Not to mention, she found out about Saiki's psychic powers but not all of them. || There's NO SMUT. Wattpad won't let me take off the Mature display. I guess it's in displace because the story does mention a lot about suicide. || || W A R N I N G: Talks about suicide, attempt of it and wanting to die. Talks about beliefs (religion) [I am not against nor making fun of any religion, it just for the story. I respect any belief and religions but I do apologize if I end up writing something you do not like]. Suicide is a big deal so if anyone is having suicidal thoughts, please contact someone. YOU MATTER. My DM's are open if anyone wishes to talk. Please be safe. || || Cover made by @StarBl00m ||Complete
