April Janvier Poems

I look up
as a tear rolls slowly
down my cheek
I think about better days
...

I sat awake at night
Tears burning my face as they fall
The screaming echos of cries
Left alone in this cold dark room
...

If these walls could talk,
you'd know my body is dead,
my mind has been taken over,
that's why I am so scared,
...

Pain... Tension... Fatigue...
Depression...
Anger, Aggression, Frustration.
All these unwanted sensations -
...

get a funny feeling,
it comes from deep inside.
I get all mad and angry,
wanting to go and hide.
...

She is lonely
Even though you can't tell
She is reaching out
For what, she doesn't know
...

When we first met I made you promise
you would never leave,
then I told you of the demons,
and how they made me bleed.
...

Screeching tires, shattering glass,
twisting metal, fiberglass.
The scene is set it all goes black,
The curtain raised the final act.
...

Silence builds an awful wreckage of a girl
It feeds on loneliness and creates a void
Gray shadows haunt and torment and torture
A teenager is stricken and destroyed
...

There is a great deal of depression that has overtaken my soul,
It floods deep within, into every inch that makes me whole.
I wonder and worry of thought throughout the day,
What is to come, to my dismay.
...
