Devon Malonson Poems

Trying so hard
to clear my head
but the more I try
the more I feel braindead.
...

My heart feels tangled
in a ball of razor wire.
I try to break free,
but it refuses to let go of me.
...

I have to take a pill everyday
just so I can laugh and play
God forbid I miss a dose
or else I just want to go comatose.
...

My life seems to be turning around.
Because of you I feel sound.
It feels like your making my life
so much better
...

You clench your teeth
and pull your hair
yet it still seems like
nobody even cares.
...

'I'm sorry' you say
even though you know
it doesn't matter anyway.
You tried so hard
...

Surprise!
Who do you see?
Does it even look like me?
It's staring back at you
...

I just can't get you out of my head
and it makes my heart
feel like a ton of lead.
I try my hardest
...
