Doubts
Secret #1- Alone in a Crowd: Sometimes people with depression or another milder mental illness can look at a huge group of people and say "I'm not one of them", because they truly feel like they don't belong.
Scratch that, make that anyone who's ever been lonely.
In other words, everyone.
Especially me.
My View on Love
My view on the romantic world? It’s okay……just as long as you’re not me. As much as I’m a sucker for romance, I get depressed. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not DESPERATELY CRAZY for a significant other. But seeing how some of my friends are happy and how they are like, it makes me wonder how it must feel. Gee I must be depressing you huh? WELCOME TO MY WORLD!!!
When Can We Be Human?????
I wrote this shortly after the Elections. All of the stupid controversy came out and I was pissed off to say the least. That's when I started to write this poem. It's called: "When Can We All Be Human?".
When can we all be human?
Instead of focusing on the outward appearance of ourselves
When can we see the beauty that lies within?
The aura that emits from our bodies
The “otherworldly” aura
When can we see it?
When can we all be human?
Instead of looking at race, religion , gender, and age
When can we see, that in one way or another, we are all the same?
White? Black? Asian? Hispanic? Native American?
It doesn’t matter
We all bleed RED
When we die, our bodies shed
Like a butterfly emerging from it’s chrysalis
A spirit is released
Whether you believe in it or not
When will you look past my outer core?
And See that I am your sister?
Another human being
We all share the same planet
One planet
And we are killing it
Is this what it means to be human?
Killing Animals?
Killing Trees?
Killing the Oceans?
Ourselves?
Taking the lives of the innocent just to satisfy our own desires?
Does being human mean destroy our only home?
If that is the case……….
I will never be human.
I will choose to be the spirit
A prisoner of a shell
From the outside looking in…..
I will never follow the desires of man
I will follow my heart instead
Just a spirit with an imagination

Note
I'm not all to sure why I created this. But...I just wanted to ease my loneliness. So if anyone can help me I'll be truly greatful. I just might also be able to get sleep too. XD
Insomnia
This is what I get for not sleeping. I'm terribly sorry if it is bad but what ever. I can't think straight when I'm tired
Spiraling down
A dead body alive
What happens when a body at rest doesn't get rest
The mind spirals into oblivion
Rerouting one memory cord to the next
Sending all dreams and nightmares away
Not giving the brain any time to slow down
You sleep with your eyes open
The world is at rest
But not you
You are awake for reasons unknown
Distractions, thoughts run through the course of your brain
Like a never stopping run away train, your thoughts continue
At a high speed pace
Wake up!
A voice breathes into your soul
Her heart stirs and her eyes flutter
Wake up!
It calls again
All limbs are numb
Unmoving, Unwilling to move.
You wish to rest
The rest of the world can
So why can't you?
This nagging feeling in the back of your head
Tugs you from your sleep
Your dream
Your nightmare
Your memory
Something was interrupted from it's run and killed at first glance.
You try to rest but it doesn't help
When?
When will your rest arrive?
Soon.......
Much too soon........
End
