(Even though he didn't deserve it) http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953516/ You think you are nothing like me,Soon you'll realize this is who you're meant to be.I run through your veins like blood,No can change that, not even God.I'll spread through your body like a disease,Your malicious soul will be fully released.In the end, everyone has a dark side,And in .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953512/ I have had my share of mistakes,But my judgement isn't yours to make.I have lived my life the best I can,There are some things you'll never understand.You say in the future, I'll wish the past away,But without it all, who would I be today?Condemn me for who I am inside,Just don't expec.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953506/ I am everything you have ever feared,I am the chilling whispers that you hear.I am the haunting thoughts in your head,I am the bloodthirsty monster under your bed.I am the sinister demon in your nightmares,I am the disfigured creature under your stairs.I am the vicious shadow inside your.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953504/ I will change your life, I swear,Your pretty bones will soon be left bare.I will make you beautiful,All I need is your soul.I will feed your crumbling self-esteem,You will have the body of your dreams.I will make you feel good,I only ask that you refuse food.I will alter everything y.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953503/ 2019. The summer my husband and I first met. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953422/ My scars have started to fade,Dust coats my long retired blade.My throat is no longer raw and tired,Purging the contents of my stomach is no longer required.My stomach is no longer empty, no longer cries for food,I've finally convinced myself starving myself was far from good.My body fee.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953289/ From my teenage archives. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953278/ Another lost poem from my teenage archives. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953275/ Just a fun poem I wrote as a teenager. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953273/ A sleep paralysis episode I had a few years ago. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953251/ The first poem I've written in years since I quit writing. The is dedicated to my husband, the love of my life ❤️ http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953157/ This is an old poem I had written 12 or 13 years ago when I was a teenager. Just wanted to upload it. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953143/ This was written back in 2018. I just found it and wanted to add it to my poetry collection. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953140/ I wrote when I was in middle school about 17 years ago. This is actually the very first poem I ever wrote. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/2953139/ Every morning, I disguise myself with this mask,endlessly lying to the world is my daily task.It's no challenge to fool them all,they calmly watch as I fall.No one will save me from this nightmare,it's easy to trick people who don't care.I try to keep myself together,but I know I'll never get better.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1223084/ Children think the world is made of colors and butterflies,why are they tricked into believing these imaginary lies?You say you're just keeping them safe from all the cruelty,but it doesn't make it better to promise them false beauty.Because when they get older,the world will seem colder.The world i.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1222623/ Why is it that I'm not allowed to listen to my heart?every moment of pretending I'm fine rips me apart.Would it make you feel better if I continue living this lie?each passing day, my misery becomes harder to deny.I have no right to shed a single tear,all emotions but happiness are expected to disap.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1222616/ This is what happens when I get bored O_O http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1218372/ I've always had everything under my control,but looking back, that life seems so dull.Perfection and innocence now make me ill,I need an adrenaline rush, I need some thrills.Detaching myself from morality, I desire,I want to know what it's like to play with fire.I want to give my life a complete tur.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1211110/ All I'm good for is a degrading f**k,take advantage, just remember to lock.All I'm good for is enduring your yells,keep going, incarcerate me in your cell.All I'm good for is being abandoned,please just leave me stranded.All I'm good for is a few hits,continue treating me like s**t.All I'm good for .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1211098/ I open my eyes to nothing but pitch black,I feel ice cold chills running down my back.I feel an eerie presence lurking around,I hold my breath, careful not to make a sound.My body is frozen as the result of my fright,I fear the most that which has no sight.I'm trying to figure out where I am,is this.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1210980/ If only you were brave,I wouldn't be rotting in a grave.If only you spoke up,one word would have been enough.If only you realized soon,I wouldn't have reached my doom.If only you noticed before,I would have lived for something more.If only you listened to your heart,you could have saved me from the .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1201875/ Sorrow is all I have been able to feel,now I'm scared to let these wounds heal.Loneliness is the only thing I've known,dealing with the sadness on my own.I'm frightened of feeling something more,frightened of stitching the skin that's been torn.Happiness is something new to me,I wish it would just l.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1189708/ I can't afford to let down my guard,getting close to someone is too hard.I can't reopen the window shielding my tattered heart,I've learned no to repeat the mistakes that tore me apart.It's in my nature not to give out my trust again,I know I will be abandoned in the end.It's easier to be on my own,.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1185795/ A poem for Rape Awareness month. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1159663/ Stricken with misery, I dig a razor into my skin,then a burst of soothing relief rushes in.Finding rapture, captivated as crimson blood drips,having lost myself, I can't get a steady grip.Locked in a trance, I press piercing razor too deep,coping with grief, I'd rather bleed out than weep.The blade,.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1095860/ I dream to get married in a cemetery,a place so frightening and scary.I dream to wear a black, lace dress on my wedding day,with a spiderweb-like veil underneath a sky of gray.I dream to live in a somber house,isolated with my mysterious spouse.I dream to have a garden filled with dark and formidabl.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1090942/ Lost in all the regret,never able to forget.Lost in all the guilt,hiding behind the wall of solitude I've built.Lost in all the shame,evil does have a name.Trying to comfort myself with lies,but the truth, I cannot deny.Loathe, rage, and embarrassment,looking into a mirror, I see who I resent.The op.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1074055/ Why do I torture myself like this?the result is always a scar to my wrist.Why do I hurt myself so well?turning my paradise into hell.Why do I cause my heart to become sore?I thought I've learned my lesson before.Why do I always wear out my trust?my confidence has been crushed to dust.Why do I bring .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1064491/ Am I death?drawing away a final breath.Am I depression?blackening a soul with dreadful repressions.Am I a gun?shooting a piercing bullet at someone.Am I a knife?gruesomely stealing a life.Am I an axe?morbidly slaughtering with a few whacks.Am I a deadly flame?causing a person to perish in extreme pa.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1064482/ Purple bruises embellish her once angelic and soft face,with her boyfriend, no one knew about the horror that took place.Each week, she comes up with a new story to conceal the truth,and regrettably, everyone believed, they didn't have a clue.Even after the painful beatings and fractured bones, she .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1062314/ "Corpse Bride" inspired me to write this. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1062307/ Every single thing about you, I admire,but this attraction may be dire.I want to stitch your skin unto my own,make picture frames out of your bones.I want to gouge out your eyes,so, I can shed your tears when I cry.I want to extract your teeth to replace my piano keys,I want your skull as a bank to .. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1060250/ I cannot believe my eyes,everything about you was a lie.Icy fear slowly crawls on my skin,on me, I can feel your piercing grin.I promise, I won't tell a single soul,what you did, it was so cold.In severe panic, I quickly turn away,in my mind, the chilling scene replays.Every limb in my body gets ten.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Lea13/1060241/
