Here I'll post random poems, that I write, or just really like. To warn you, although my poems have gotten good reviews, I consider myself an amateur. So, I love constructuve critisism, but please don't be too harsh
My gaia name is also my pen name, so.

Truth
by ash-nite

a choked off scream
a breathing halt
the words
the lies you whispered in my ear
stop
the truth trickles free
undoing the clasp that locks in life
the truth will free you
the truth will set you free
from body
from mind
for the truth is a killer
in blackness it hides
claming the life of those who seek
death in purest form

Waiting
by ash-nite

as the world moves,
I stand still
As the cities change
I wont budge

When the darkness falls
Here I am
As it starts to rain
I'm still here

The gail's blowing
With me outside
The leaves are changing
While I watch

Waiting for you
to come
sweep me off the street
Give me a home

Not Today
by ash-nite

you say, to hold on
I know, my grip is slipping

you say, it will all get better
I know, things will never change

you say, I am stronger
I know, I'm not good enough

you say, you have faith
I know, god's given up

my grip on realitie's loosening

were these voices
always in my head

did you always
yell so loud

why does
everyone hate me

Is it even
worth it

Yes
for my family

Yes
for my future

Yes
for my friends

Yes
for myself
and the life I could have
for the life I will have

step back from the ledge
set down the gun
put the knife away

breath in
breath out
i'm okay...
for today



a note: this is a poem written from a time when I was suicidal 2 years ago, when I was 13, I am not on the verge of suicide anymore so don't worry i'm ok.
