Chapter 1: Nevermind

Chapter Text

You’re such a strange girl
You have blood on your hands
And a fire in your eyes
And that closet of yours
Seems kind of..

Actually, nevermind.

I’m such a boring boy
I have ink on my hands
And pure water in my eyes
And the feelings that i have for you
Seem kind of..

Actually, nevermind.

Chapter 2: Hatred

Summary:

anothuh oneuhh yuhhh

Notes:

this one’s kinda short and boring and unoriginal but oh well it gets progressively better i think (this one’s from february i think)

Chapter Text

Please, no more
The love just overwhelms me

Please, no more
The ceiling’s staring at me

Please, no more
The hatred overwhelms me

Please, no words
I love you so much more.

Chapter 3: Irregular

Summary:

third one lesssgooo

Notes:

i genuinely despise this one. only the ending is okay. i hate it other than that. but it happened so im still putting it here

Chapter Text

Most are regular,
you see them everywhere.
Sipping their regular drinks,
sat on the bench, spat on the sidewalk;
everyday,
every time,
always.

But humanity is so much more than that.

She is special,
you still see her everywhere.
Sipping her precious iced tea,
likely late for the meet, someone called her:
‘Hi, freak!’.
And you felt bad, so you said;
‘I’m sorry that I feel this way.’

Chapter 4: Roadkill

Summary:

this was inspired by guess what
the song
roadkill
probably one of my favourites because someone super duper dear to me came up with the last rhyme for it (also it was insane how on-point it was)

Chapter Text

We woke up early
And I loved you dearly

And then I cried, I cried.

We talked too much
And you didn’t really like me, right?

And then I cried, I cried.

I burned my shoulders
And you’re setting too much borders

Then I cried, and cried - I’m roadkill.

Chapter 5: Dead Kids

Summary:

This was also inspired by a song
Dead girls by penelope scott
i love it

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

Ever think of just ending it all
I know you die, kids
Just take some adderall

Every thing around me just doesn’t feel at all
I know I died, kids
Just drink some alcohol

Ever think of just not existing at all
We’re dead, kids
You’ll see me at nightfall

We’re the dead kids in the sand
We’re the dead kids in the land
We’re the dead kids, we just know -

I’m the dead kid no one loves.

Notes:

i really love this one for some reason.
i love talking about how broken humanity is

Chapter 6: sugar wound

Summary:

though this was written specifically about one person in my life, i can see how it could be relatable to people who, like me, were raised on discord and other weird internet places.
the struggle is real

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

You’ll meet me with my heart out,
flailing my insides around like i’m fine

You’ll see me with my guts spilled,
staring with glass eyes like it’s done

You’ll look at me like a stranger,
playing with feelings like i’m none

You’ll bid me a good night,
tasting with summer sun like i’m dumb

I’ll see you on the balcony,
drawing voids and blood like i love
Though you won’t leave entirely,
i’ll just shoot you and run.

Notes:

*by ‘shoot you and run’ i mostly meant ignoring the person/cutting off contact with them
dont shoot ur homies u guys 💗

Chapter 7: misleading

Summary:

not inspired by anything idk

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

you’re so stupid for existing,
you’re so nasty for deleting,
you’re so ugly for just being,
is there something i’m not seeing?

they’re so smart for dissipating,
they’re so nice for always staying,
they’re so pretty for just missing,
is there a thing i should be fixing?

i’m so sorry for being here,
i’m so tired i can’t breathe,
i’m so sick for just leaving,
even more boring self-deceiving.

Notes:

the rhymes are barely breathing in this one :’(( i dont hate it, but it has very little meaning and is just mid quality tbh

Chapter 8: Liliac Petals

Summary:

this is the only poem so far i made on my phone lol
it was a pain typing it into the ipad kid ipad 😭😭

Notes:

this is my favourite. hands down. i love the rhymes, the feel, everything. i am literally addicted to it :,)

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

I drink my black coffee even though it’s disgusting,

You want to hear a joke?
Oops, sorry, I forgot it

Just like I forgot my name,
Forgot what I was gonna say,
Forgot the way she looked me in the eyes that day.

So I threw up on purpose, bleeding on the floor

Care about me please, care about me more!

Jump off of the bed,
so you can see me clearly,

I love you unreasonably screaming!

We don’t even talk anymore now,
Cause you think I’m insane,
You think I lost everything that day,

And I bet you liked the way I cried your name,

that’s fine by me, anyway!

Notes:

if you’re reading this, yk who you are,
elizabeth i am your father and come home i made biscuits
hahahahaha no feelings for you
no feelings just poems
haha
get poem’d
emo ass mf

Chapter 9: RLY(Really like you)

Summary:

havent posted in a whileee xoxo u guys
theyre back in my life now ig so i wrote sumthing hope u like it <3

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

(Heh, yeah, I do tend to..)

(Overshare a bit? Yeah, noticed.)

(I like you. Like.. Really like you.)

(I know.)

Obviously obnoxious, falling asleep now

Though I know you can barely even hear me now

And through dumb smoke I really fucking miss you now

Even though the headaches you gave me were neither fair nor rational

Sometimes I regret meeting you, the fear was just irrational

I’ve always liked that you made me feel fractional

If you don’t believe me, look in my fucking playlists;
Whether you know or not, your soul has started to rot.

Notes:

its more like weird song lyrcs rather than a poem, but i think its okay here (my work my rules yk)
this is also another one i wrote on my phone lmaoo
(fun fcat this was written on the 10th of december but i forgot to post it :c

Chapter 10: tied down

Notes:

I HOPE U GUYS LIKE THIS ONE I DO ITS MY FAVOURITE I THINK 🫶

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

tie me up, don’t tie me down
sweet little dove, oh please don’t cry
the icky sweat, the red and bloody sheets - it’ll all be nigh
when i finally come down from the high

try to catch me, but i can’t be caught
at yellowstone, where you stared at me long
it’s too naive, it’s too expensive - it’ll compensate my face that’s pensive
while i’ll think of how to put up my defences

try to love me, when i don’t like to love
looking backwards, you were the only one
that looked, cared and didn’t leave - that’s exactly what i didn’t want to see
but oh well, it happened again,
repeating mistakes time and time as always

didn’t think that you could be so funny
it’s sad that i’m not just a carefree bunny.

Notes:

definitely tell me ur interpretation of this!!! to me its like a story about someone not wanting a relationship but getting into one out of pressure even though you dont really feel love towards the other person
also some stuff relates to my experience as a hypersexual (hihihi anyone relate?? anyone??)

Chapter 11: Second Mira

Summary:

ive been writing on my phone a lot but i always forget to post it hwre ehuehduhdh (i wrote this today tho)

Notes:

i weote this because i was thinking abt mirroring
i mirror other people when theyre influential, i copy their power, in result boosting both mine and theirs in their eyes
its manipulation, but its a survival tactic in places where you dont fit in and you still want to have any kind of social life
but then when i actually wrote this it became more about social standards, losing yourself in the process of mirroring (getting a falsely high ego that drops every time youre not appreciated enough)

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Am I the prettiest girl of all?
Do I send boys kneeling, hanging from the ceiling?
Do I make girls so jealous, they become felons?

Mirror, mirror on the floor
Am I the smartest girl of all?
Do I get boys begging, and they're so unnerving?
Do I make girls wonder, how their brains don't ponder?

Mirror, mirror out the door
Am I the girl? Not anymore
Do I leave you to die, wait until your brain cells fry?
Do I make you hope you could dream, but you never get a wink of sleep?

Sweet array of mothers weep, every mirror shattered with a sweep,

Am I
?

Notes:

the mothers weeping and mirrors shattering is a nod to kids not handling their emtions as soon as theyre alone, sometimes even committing
if you ever have thoughts about committing, think twice
or thrice
orrrr four times
as many as it takes to make you change your mind

Chapter 12: at the altar

Notes:

i feel like this is silly but also kinda dark?? wrote this like two weeks ago foegor to post it
hope u like itt

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

fall right there, fall into place
hold my hand, but we're just friends
dance with no room for the Lord,
now get away with all the porn

dirty liar, lie your part
you know, you have no choice but that
shaved your brain all nice and smooth
fuck it, where's the kissing booth?

get me to the altar now
give me away to my beautiful bride
she's wearing a black dress, just like a raven
we both say we do, we know we can't save him

honeycomb, honeymoon
she's the reason that i swoon
my wife is my truth, and she is my life
but she goes by "Death", if you know her charm

Notes:

i was rly inspired cause i was in a hard place romantically, since i liked two people at once
one of them turned out to be taken which they never talked abt so my ego took a HUGE hit and i started ghosting them a bit, they saw through it and i made up some random reason and we "made up", i did rly move on rn tho, im going for the other person rn (we even went on a date and ut was so nice!!)
this was also written during a depressive or manic ep idk how to describe it anyway i was going cray cray so yhh
hope u liked it and yes im silly ik

Chapter 13: im not home right now

Notes:

this honestly disturbed me a bit?
i saw some weird thing on relationships on reels and at the end it was like "is there any universe where you would wsit for me" ... "no." snd then it loops and i wrote this mostly based on that, i evaded rhymes because i wsmted to go a different direction than usual

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

pepper her with your sweet seed of loving
and yknow what you get for that??
a whole bundle of
nothing!!!

whats your face for if not fucking??
whats your name mean if its lost to the pounding???
do you ever really think that im something????
or was all this time always worth nothing?????

passively aggresive, but i wont go away
youll find me trapped in the way you say "okay?"
now i wont say your name cause the nicknames just the same
sugar, baby, my precious little sweetiebelle

fuck my face
yeah!
fuck my face, just like that
look it, hit it, miss it
yeah!
tongue like an adhesive to the back of my throat
cause i already know that whatever you do, ill always be sold
cut off the meat piece, better - cut off my arms!
just wanna meet my compromising demise

Notes:

sorry for not posting often, ive been writing in my native language (polish) a LOT recently and i don't post that here so sorry!!!
someone (hmm i wonder who val ik youre reading) complimented me on my writing a lot (even wrote a poem for me like this man is GOLDEN) whixh was super motivating and definitely helped keep me going!!
now onto the acc 'poem', i miiight be having a slight manic ep + a lot of things ale happening rn so its mostly just me being overwhelmed, its mainly abt someone i don't think ive mentioned on here before, and i think ill keep it that way lol
by meat piece i mean tongue if anyone thought i meant my dick (which i don't have btw) then you are spadły wrong!
the title is just a mcdonalds thing i had today (2 for you) and its a nod to something else that uh again wont mention
thats it, see youuu

Chapter 16: 2nd chances

Summary:

dont wanna talk abt it, written around 1/2 weeks ago

Chapter Text

feel like a monster,
with the way my stomach is bursting with flames
with the way i could scream your name
and with the quiet promise that you'll suffocate

feels like this time - youre closer
the bed isnt that hard anymore, its softer
one's charm works for the other
do we both love one another?

with a snap of your fingers
id be on my knees, swifter
begging - please!
yes, go ahead, cup a feel

saw that smile, saw that face
knew its time that my feelings race
a soft, plush pillow hits my mouth
hard
and its not going to stop

then again - i dont want it to!
id touch it every time i could
fuck logic, fuck peace - im a fool!
a - a h . . i m f u l l n o w , t h a n k y o u . .

Chapter 17: nasty dog

Summary:

this isnt really true anymore and i wrote it under heavy emotions, but its still poetry, so have it

Chapter Text

a rainy day, a dark and gloomy night
i saw a stray dog, sitting by a road light
tried to pet it, but he jumped to bite me
i took a step back, but then he.. sat by me

i started walking away, and he walked with me
we grew quite close on my way home, didnt we?
but i knew every step he took was painful
he had wounds all over his pretty gray fur

when we got home, i made him some food
he soon got to know the other dogs in the room
again - i tried to pet him, but it was still too soon
the others liked him. together - howled at the moon

the next day, tried to bandage his wounds
he still wouldnt let me, i felt like such a fool.
then i asked "is this a game to you?"
he just tilted his head like a silly dog would

a week, maybe two, the dogs all fought
the dog scratched at its wounds, blood all around
looked at me with glossy eyes, scowling
"want me to help?" my hand reaching

he bit my hand right off
what a nasty, nasty dog.

Chapter 18: dress-up, darling

Summary:

written for a daily prompt (today) in a poetry server, think i did pretty well!!!!

Chapter Text

i counted the days we didn't talk
each day i crumbled, heart of chalk
did we fight? not really
do you hate me? figuratively

i put on a black coat, it wasnt my style
but i had to dress up the feelings inside.

i dont usually dress like this
the good memories fall into the abyss
did we fight? no, but we should
do you hate me? i hate you too

this.. thing put on a mask (is it still me?)
feelings in the distance - i can hardly see.

dark makeup and ripped jeans
i dont think this is still me
no control over what i do or think
the hate has corrupted my heart

my heart?
is.. bleeding

something ripped through "my" body
a pretty pink knife, hearts all over it
before i could form another thought
i hear a sound i thought i never might

my voice, my real voice
" i b r o k e t h e w e b o f l i e s"
i smiled, i died, but that's a good thing, right?
now we're real, together

a valid murder, whatsoever
