Escape

Rebecca Chapman

05 Feb, 2016 06:49 AM
Every time I close my eyes,
I enter a wonderland in disguise.
People usually refer to this as sleep,
But to me, it's quite a fantasy.
I close my eyes, and escape the world.
And nothing matters anymore.
All my sadness disappears.
All the pain, and all the tears.
This is how I escape my life. 
I close my eyes and turn off the light.
-r.j.c.

Hope you enjoyed the poem!

Make It Go Away

Kira

I had to block out the thought of you,
So I don't lose my head,
You never get in touch with me,
Even though I'm the one who wanted space.

Hate me today,
Hate me tomorrow,
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you.

I've been sober for three months now,
That's one accomplishment you helped me with.

He Doesn't Love You

Rebecca Chapman

05 Feb, 2016 06:38 AM
He doesn't love you.
He never did.
But you believed him. 
Just like a kid.
He acted so sweet,
said, "no one is greater!"
But look at you now.
You're both just strangers.
The long hugs, sweet kisses,
All your history...
It's nothing but a memory.

The Pain Within

Rebecca Chapman

05 Feb, 2016 06:31 AM
When things get bad, 
I tend to get sad.
I'm all alone,
left to cry,
and sometimes, I just
want to die.
I'm yelled at,
made fun of,
I'm stupid and weak.
I go to the kitchen,
and it's pills that I seek.

Hope

Rebecca Chapman

There's always hope in the world we're in.
Despite what you think, the pain will end.
After all the tears and lonely nights,
Just stand up tall; you'll win this fight.
After a storm, a rainbow appears,
letting us know that sunshine is near.
After you cry, you smile again.
The pain you feel will slowly end.
And when you fall, you stand back up. 
Even though it may be tough.
You say you can't do it,
But I know you can.

Your Last Goodbye

Rebecca Chapman

05 Feb, 2016 06:15 AM
What will happen when you say your last goodbye?
Who would miss you?
Who would cry?
They say she's attention seeking,
A stupid worthless whore,
But the cuts on her wrist say so much more.
Her thoughts are screaming,
"Just do it, they won't care!"
The life you have is so unfair.
Take the pills, pull the trigger,
Kick the chair away,
Because the demons you have,

I wondered

Daniel Bogogolela

I loved her before she loved me.
I knew her through her sister
who unlike her, loved me.

I used to visit her family
through my friend who had
introduced me to their family.
It was a family of four boys
and girls.

She was the second of the girls.
I don't quite know what number

cruel

She was  laying on her bed alone,
Wondering where she could’ve gone.
The a figure of a man towered over 
her lifeless body.

She was about to die because her
Friends who believed so, were no
more interested in visiting her.
None of them was even interested
in calling her and learn of any changes
on her.

Why cant she just find love

Shelby

16 Mar, 2015 09:06 PM
She tries and tries
at night her world just to dies.
Every guy she has ever liked
turned her down,
Do they think she's ugly?
Is she weird? 
Is her body not good enough? 

There are so many questions that she cant get answered,
she finds it hard to stop the feelings she has for him, 
she feels in order to live she needs that beautiful feeling of butterflies 
and a racing heart,

I pray

We love each other but,
not  the way people think.
They don’t know how  we’ve come 
to know each other because they’re
still to learn about us.

When I was young and pregnant,
non of them could believe I was
carrying his child.
They had thought I was lying to
his parents to get close to his family.
