Poikarukka poikarukka,
Huonot hampaat ja värjätty tukka.
Päivästä toiseen elämää surren,
Jatkaa elämää hammasta purren.
Kun illalla tyynyyn painuu pää,
Silloin toivoo poikarukka tää.
Kumpa tälle joku valoa tois,
Eikä lähtis koskaan viereltä pois.
Poikarukka poikarukka,
Heikko ja laiha kuin kuihtunut kukka.
Mielensä palasina lasin lailla,
Mielenrauhaa vain on vailla.
Maailmaansa ei muille jaa,
Vaan piiloutuu kylmän maskinsa taa.
Yksin pimeässä kuin hyljätty hukka,
Ainiaan kulkee poikarukka
I roll the dice
and once again
I die a little more inside.
I've played
This Game of Death
for so long.
And I can't help but wonder,
how is there still
anything left in me to be killed.
Give me life
By thousand cuts,
Suck out the poison
From my tainted mind,
Break the shackles
Of anger
And set me free,
Life granted
By thousand tiny cuts,
Hope it's worth the pain
Of letting go.
I sit here on my throne of want
I am a lord of nothing, the crownless king
watching over this empty hall
eternally bound, unable to leave
for what is a lord without his throne?

Carnival of cuts and scratches
Welcome to the
carnival of
cuts and scratches,
Where we all fight
neverending deathmatches.
Here you'll see
the meeting ends,
Here razorblades
are your best friends.
Take a seat by
the huge bonfire,
Where corpses burn
in crimson ire.
So, I'm not worth
your time anymore?
Can't really blame you
after all, you tried to help me.
I just didn't listen,
as it seems to always be with me.
I just don't listen,
or in fact I don't understand.
Anyway, I just want to thank you,
for trying to save my poor soul.
Have a nice rest of your life,
I hope you find true happines,
'cause you if anybody deserves it.
My scars, they've stopped healing.
They don't hurt anymore,
but they just won't heal.
The old ones are starting
to show more clearly.
Why is that, I wonder?
Maybe my body is starting to give in
to my dying mind.

Masquerade of empty smiles
I'm always watching,
I see all of you laughing
and having fun.
Sometimes wishing I could
be part of that group again,
just wishing.
But I see through
that masquerade
of empty smiles.
I hear things,
and understand them
better than others.
somehow,
I sense the hidden
meanings in simple words.
One of the perks
of being a wallflower,
I guess.
I must say,
I was most surprised
when you asked me how i'm doing.
Amazed by the fact
that you talked to me,
It caught me off guard.
Two months,
Two silent months
and a sudden hello.
But that didn't last long,
in fact it was over
before it really even started.
There were things I wanted to ask,
but I didn't have the courage
to open my chest of words.
Have you thought about me, us?
How often? How much?
Do you still hate me?
You said to me that:
"I don't hate you,
I just don't care".
I don't believe that,
I could see it in you,
The hatred, it suits you.
I have to admit
That I still miss you sometimes,
And it breaks me.
But it's okay,
it
I was born a liar and a liar I will stay
Nothing will change the things I've done,
or the things that I will say.
I can't tell the truth
for it is unknown to me,
like it is to you.
How could one speak the truth,
when all he has ever known
is lies?
he has lied to himself
so many times,
he started to believe his own lies.
I lied, and I'm sorry
but I will lie again.
after all,
I was born a liar and a liar I will stay.

Angels and demons.
Both can be found inside my head.
The Angels, dressed in white robes,
with huge feathered wings dark as charcoal.
Their faces cannot be seen,
because it's covered in fog and their long flowing white hair.
Their voices are not gentle and kind, no,
Their voices are like thousand overlapping screams of agony.
Why would anyone want to listen to them?
The Demons on the other hand,
Dressed in pitch black leather garments, their skin is gray,
Their hair flaming red with black horns on their heads.
On their backs they carry feathered wings of the pures white colour.
their voices are soft and caring; though they speak only lies.
The article in the paper said that she killed herself by jumping off an eight-floor apartment block. He felt that something was off there. Not in the gesture itself, but in its details.
Her mother told the journalists, crying, that she wasn't the sort of girl who would do such a thing. Her best friend said that she had her depressive episodes, but nobody could possibly have expected this. But he? He didn't find her taking her own life all that surprising. Still, something wasn't right. No suicide note, no sort of message to him. No strange actions, no frantic love-making or dispassionate 'my head hurts' statements. Everything had been normal

Beyond Sadness by Kanako Itou Lyrics
If I can make my way to the other side of sorrow
Then I don't need warmth or tomorrow anymore
The dream that landed in the darkness of silence
Who...? Is the light that briefly spilled on my cheeks
Why...? Without knowing the method to stop an all too fragile world
I was simply wishing, that's right, for oblivion
If I can make my way to the other side of sorrow
Then I'd like to not feel anything beyond this anymore
Why...? The repeating words, the collapsed promise
Echoed conspicuously and beautifully, and now, severed
Will you return to the other side of despair?
The utmost love entrusts its unblemished body to the eternal sail
If I can

The Symptoms of Suicide
How can you tell when someone wants to die?
Are there physical signs for people who have given up on life, like symptoms of some terminal disease?
Maybe you can see it in their eyes, that ashy grey colour that indicates the total absence of any form of hope.
Maybe you can smell it on them; a sour, despondent smell, similar to the stench of turned milk.
Perhaps you can hear it in their voice, the lack of electricity, the lack of life.
A dead voice.
The voice of a suicidal person should sound like a note played on a harpsichord. Tinny, listless, flat. An unpleasant noise that makes your skin crawl. Nails on a chalkboard.
But maybe there

No amount of preparation
No warning of trouble foretold
Could brace me
For the end I sought
Yet suddenly wish
To stall
Infinitely
You were everything
I wanted
I needed
I dreamed
You were
No, you are
Perfect
Flaws and all
I thought I'd
Steeled my heart
Against the fall
I promised
You did too
Yet like Odysseus
I find I'm
Drawn
In
To
You
But the ropes didn't hold
The mast broke
The roar of fear
Assaults my senses
Waves of realization
Crashing over my head
I'm drowning
In a demise
Of my own design
Still your song
Calls to me
I follow
Until I die
Or you reach out
And save me.
Only one way this can end
So I'll drown in you again

I watched myself drown and I did nothing. I always do nothing and then make up excuses for it. Now there's no one to blame but myself. I let important parts of myself die and I did nothing and now the anger and sadness cycle within me and the only solace I have are my existential crises, knowing that I and all other humans are destined to die and it never mattered anyway.
Are feelings consuming?
My heart stops moving
Or so I wish.
Lacking the happiness I’ve come to miss.
Ripping my heart out.
Seething and letting out a shout.
Not knowing what else
Could be done to melt
All of this raw emotion.
Not just of devotion
But of everything that’s jumbled
Crumbled
Tumbled
Muddled
Puzzled
BREATHE
Troubled.
It’s always on my mind
Making it hard to deny
Sometimes I want to just forget
Correction...Most of the time I think about death.
Don’t have anything to look forward to anymore.
Maybe I do want to be ignored.
Then I would have a reason to be upset
And not just living with this mess.

You Are Stuck... by TheLostRejectedSoul, literature
Literature
You Are Stuck...
Because you are stuck between
Wanting to kill yourself and not
Your emotions are non-existence
You are numb
You feel everything and nothing
All at the same time
And it is absolute hell
The worst feeling ever
Should you slit your wrists?
Would that even help?
Does the pain subside even for a little bit?
You are stuck
Mentally and physically
Between a brick and a rock
You are just there
Contemplating every move,
Noise, sound you make
Nothing feels right...
I am a poet writing of my pain
I am a person living a life of shame
I am your son hiding depression
I am your brother making a good impression
I am your friend acting like I'm fine
I am a wisher wishing this life weren't mine
I am a guy who thinks of suicide
I am a teenager pushing his tears aside
I am a student that doesn't have a clue
I am the guy sitting next to you
I am the one asking you to care
I am your best friend hoping you'll be there...

misery loves my company by silentflood, literature
Literature
misery loves my company
I have a friend
Who’s always there for me
They make me do bad things though
And makes me feel sad
Their name is Depression
Depression is a bad friend
I’m afraid of Depression
But Depression is always here
So I never feel alone
Depression killed my old friend, Happiness
Depression wants to kill me too
I’m trying to run, I’m so terrified
But Depression holds me tightly
Like a deadly cobra, suffocating me
Even though Depression is always hurting me
They are still my friend
Because any friend
Is better than this loneliness
