Taylor Fong Poems

I lost my mind, I breakdown
My knees collapse, I'm on the floor
So much stress, so much anger
I can't take this anymore
...

I cut
I bleed
I want
I need
...

Not a day goes by where I don't flash back to that night.
That night that puts so many thoughts in my head that scream at me.
That make me feel so low, I feel as if I'm below rock bottom.
And I wish I could just forget.
...

There you are. I see you, below me,
as the icy waters surround you
in its death grip. I see you.
Drowning. Gasping for air, crying
...

I put the blade against my skin
They don't know the pain I'm in
They don't see the real me
Sometimes I wish I could break free
...

My eyes are wide, my stomach dropped
My throat is dry, my heart has stopped
Where am I? Why am I here?
Can't he tell I'm filled with fear?
...

Maybe, just maybe, a blade will take this pain away.
Maybe the blood from this broken heart needs to bleed through my veins.
Maybe the external pain will distract me from the internal pain.
Maybe if I cut a little deeper, it'll hurt a little less.
...

Babe, don’t you see that I love you?
I’m gone, head over heels for you.
Are you blind? Why can’t you see
That all I want is for you to want me.
...

Why were you there?
Why did I have to see you?
Seeing you again was like reliving a nightmare.
You enter the room…
...

Tell me how.
Please.
Tell he how the hell it’s my fault.
Tell me why you’re blaming me for this happening.
...
