For Someone Who Found A Secret Piece Of Me

I’m just the framework

Nothing is inside

My soul, my heart, my feelings

Gone.

It’s only the framework

It wants me to be part of it

To join in it’s daily ritual

It’s the thing that makes me feel like I’m something

But I’m not

I’m fake.

I appear real, but on the inside, it’s all fake

I’m just the framework.

The framework of a person, a human

My soul has been stripped from the body

I feel no true feelings, only forced or fake

Because I am a fake. And no one knows

It’s my little secret, my terrible little secret

With its movement and sounds, I get paralyzed

With the added whispers tickling into my ears

That’s all I want to become, to be, to go to, to live

They make me forget who I am, all my pains, all my troubles, all the hatred I feel, all the fakeness about me, all the lies, everything

I can let myself go and just think clearly

I’m no longer true, I should go to hell

But there it might be even a better than I am now

I made myself this way and I’m getting used to it, which is a bad sign

I want to join them, I want to be a taunting a whisper, a paralyzing object, a mesmerizing feeling

Do you know that they are? Of course not because they don’t have the affect on you

They can make me let go

They call out to me like a lost wolf howling to the moon

And I join them, for a moment, a second. A wonderful second

Because both of them together let me be alone, not judged

Together they let me think, and get back part of my soul, my heart, my feelings for a split second, a few seconds, a minutes

But I’m fake

None can see threw the framework

It’s so tightly woven and complicated no one can see all the parts

Only bits and pieces are shown to certain people

None has seen the whole picture

Except for one

They pull and pull and pull

I want to stop fighting and join them

Join all of them

For they make me feel like I’m actually full, none of the fake shit

They make a convincing case

But I tell myself, “not yet, not yet. Enjoy the minutes with them. You’ll be able to become them soon”

So I wait

He’s the one who I want to know more about

He’s old yet new to me

I knew him before but now we’re coming a little bit closer

He has figured out more of my intertwining knots, the twists in words I create, the lies I tell, more than anyone else

He creates funny racists jokes, a swimmer, a gamer, a waterpolo player

But he likes someone else. Or is that person Missy, Dawn… me? I doubt it.

I see them everyday. I can’t get enough. They have become my invisible friends

The worlds the whispers taunt me, the sight of them makes me think clearly, the touch of them makes me feel alive. 

Not fake

They were the ones that took my soul, my heart, my feelings, the goodness and happiness in me

But yet, I cannot live without them

He knows more about me then he can realize, more than most people

He held me captive for 1,000 oreos

that’s what I’m worth; a 1,000 oreos

But he doesn’t know what I think in my mind.

All the horrific, terrible thoughts

The hatred that I feel for so many people

The sadness that I feel and have felt for so many years

But he was the one who deciphered some of my codes because he is a pro-hacker

They come out at night, the only time they have an affect on me

And that’s when I come. The only time I come – but I sneak out

But I’ve decided I’m going to join them, once and for all

Or I think I will do it because I have started wishing and wanting to more than ever

I’ll do it by drowning, overdose on pills, stabbing, shooting, or maybe even hanging?

Then I can join them; them, the ocean and the wind and the past

But maybe I can’t because I want to see what will happen

If it will disappear and if I will be wanted by someone

Probably not by him, though – everyone I know will choose someone over me

I’ll have to wait a little longer, but my string is a thin thread, ready to break

Calm is shown in the framework

Inside it’s chaos and fake

You’re the first to know because you figured out other stuff no one does

There’s been some exaggeration, but not a lot

This is the truth

Another bit of me shown

Don’t tell anyone. I beg of you. Keep this secret

At least until I tell you to get help if I can no longer help myself

I’m sorry you’re the one who has to read this, who has to keep this a secret, the one who I have trusted

You can forget about all of this, if you want

Just had to tell someone and you’re the one chosen

Because I’m pretty sure you don’t judge or that’s what I think

You know stuff even my mom doesn’t know

You can forget about this, about everything wrote

Because I’m pretty sure you know who I am

** there are like 2 poems in 1 poem. 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, is talking about something different from the other “paragraphs” (not including the stuff under the line).

I can no longer sob out loud. I do still sob, but silently. I’ve cried silently too many times and now that’s the only way I can. I’ve hidden for so long and so many times it has become permanent. 

me.

me.
