Feeling Lost And Unsure Of Who You Are

in Mental Illness Poems

Never knowing,
Always seeking
happiness and approval,
even the words I am speaking.

Never knowing,
Always seeking
happiness and approval,
even the words I am speaking.

Constantly doubting
my choices, my actions.
Succumbing to fixes,
for temporary satisfaction.

Overwhelming anxiety,
illuminated by fear,
controlling my life.
Who I'm becoming is unclear.

Dealing With Death Years Later

in Sister Death Poems

Four years have now passed,
my hearts still not whole.
Pieces forever missing,
with your death, they were stolen.

Four years have now passed,
my hearts still not whole.
Pieces forever missing,
with your death, they were stolen.

The beginning proved the toughest.
Depression sunk in hard.
Just went through the motions,
yet eternally to be scarred.

Reminded through your pictures
of the life that you once knew.
Your smile ever so captivating,
those eyes of ocean blue.

Your presence is a constant,
felt in the sunrise and sunset.
Shooting stars, heart shaped rocks,
YOU... I am never to forget.

Your memory will be everlasting.
Still your voice I miss the most.
Oh, just to hear you laughing
or just to feel you close.

Four years now have passed.
No, my heart's still not whole.
Yes, pieces forever will be missing,
but your life...it changed my soul.

If Only You Could Have Stayed
- Published: March 2011
in Sister Death Poems

Constantly thinking,
never to be the same.
The tears fall quickly
just hearing your name.

Constantly thinking,
never to be the same.
The tears fall quickly
just hearing your name.

Silence is golden,
yet not anymore.
Silence brings thoughts
I just can't ignore.

The nights are sleepless,
dreams out of reach.
Crying in my pillow
to you I beseech.

Surrounded by family,
I still feel alone.
My heart is so empty.
This pain I must own.

I wish I could hug you
and just see your face.
But now I have memories
to stand in your place.

Gone but not forgotten,
that's what they say.
Of course that is true...
but if only you could have stayed.
