if only the hurricane
the tidal waves in my brain
could keep #calm
while i succumb to the qualms
that never cease
to let me be

#vss365 #shortpoetry #poetry #dark #sad #poetry #writing #mentalhealth #darkacademia #sadpoetry

the #quake
cracks
fissures
everything
everywhere
'til there is nothing left
but broken pieces
forever remain

day by day
moment by moment

#vss365 #poetry #shortpoetry #bskypoets #dark #sad #sadpoetry #mentalhealth

i let this fractured
heart beat for you
even if
it only
breaks me

Melancholic Verses
Time closed the wound,
but left its mark behind;
some memories bloom again
where nothing else survives.

honeybees
are only drawn
to the most
potent
of roses,

to you
i guess
i was never
strong
enough

i could bleed out all the ink
and it still wouldn't be enough
to believe my words are worth it

I fear the sunrise,
for it steals you from my dreams,
leaving me behind.

i #habour
the burden of loneliness
unwillingly

and the most
that i can do
is weather the storm

#vss365 #poetry #writing #sad #dark #shortpoetry #sadpoetry #darkacademia #lonely

what did my soul
do to have a constant shadow
with the name "loneliness"
curse me cradle to grave?

Your heartbeat fades to dust,
yet I remain because I must,
eternally lost.

love is a knife-
cutthroat in how you feel
every
last
slice
of the blade

#love #hurt #poetry #writing #sad #shortpoetry #dark #sadpoetry

if you know when you've found the one, perhaps i resign myself that love chose to leave me lonely for this life

And a little wound transforms into unbearable night.

i have found it is lighter to live in home of ghosts than to be in an empty house

Pain
Rain falls in my chest
Nameless wounds begin to bleed
Beneath silent skies
#DarkPoetry #EmotionalPoetry #InnerPain #SadPoetry #PoetryCommunity

can a ghost learn to love themselves
if they never believed their soul
should have ever existed

#darkpoetry #sadpoetry #poetry #darkacademia #ghost #sad #dark #originalpoetry #shortpoetry

do you exist if nobody ever sees you?

#micropoem #poetry #melancholy #darkpoetry #sadpoetry #originalpoetry #shortpoetry #sad #dark

when the darkest nights swallow you up
and the stars barely glimmer in your eyes
just remember that the love we have
means as much to you as it means to me

if i were to be free of the stormy days that forever haunt me, what is left of the soul i inhabit?
