Biting My Tongue

August 4, 2021 bohotea5 Comments

I’m biting my tongue,

Enough to make me bleed,

Holding back all the words,

I should have said,

For you to understand,

The hurt you inflict.

Thinking Out Loud

All these thoughts,

Screaming in my skull,

It’s like I can’t get the words-

Quick enough for you to understand,

I’m hurting.

A Fair Weathered Warning

July 21, 2021July 21, 2021 bohoteaLeave a comment

I’m sorry,

I have let you down, again.

I’ll try and fix it,

I’m patching up my pieces,

Fixing my smile,

I’ll be better,

Just promise me,

You’ll be patient.

The Weight of Depression

July 20, 2021 bohoteaLeave a comment

I wake and walk through,

What feels like quicksand,

Sinking deeper with each step,

Whilst everyone around me,

Carries on unencumbered,

Perhaps, I took a misstep?

Rainwater

Let the rain wash over my skin,

Absolve me of all the tears I cried,

Release me from this weight I’ve carried,

I need to start over and let go,

Help me find myself again.

Stung

Those words,

They’re like a hair-trigger,

The moment they leave your mouth,

I feel their barbed sting,

As if it were still a gift from him.

Bring me dead flowers,

Stand by the sidelines,

Watch me wilt at your words,

All over again

Haunted

July 15, 2021July 15, 2021 bohoteaLeave a comment

When you escape,

They never tell you-

What freedom entails,

The nightmares,

All the self-doubt,

Freezing at a word,

I thought I’d be free.

But I’m still haunted.

Eye of a Storm

July 13, 2021July 13, 2021 bohoteaLeave a comment

I’m alone on this island,

Everyone else gone ashore,

I sent them away, like I always do,

They shouldn’t see the wreck I leave,

In my storm.

Therapy

Therapy,

I surrender myself to you,

Let the pain and the tears-

Wash over me and absolve,

So I might start to forgive myself,

For carrying the hurt you gave me.
