General Art Mamono101's Poetry Thread

[Mamono101]

Haven't really written anything in a while but managed to compose something today. It's a little rough around the edges but it's the best I can do, all things considered.

Might refine this at some point in the future, but, for now, here it is:

Spoiler

"Down"

Out of the blue, it hits.
The process takes days to complete
And there's nothing I can do but sit here
As I slowly fall apart piece by piece.

I'm Tired. So very tired.
Can't fall asleep; don't want to wake up.
Then crying. It always starts with the crying.
Headaches and nausea soon follow.
Staring blankly at nothing but empty space, I can't focus on anything.

What's wrong with me?
Make it stop.

Why do I feel like this?
Make it stop.

Why won't you help me?
Make it stop.

Make it stop.

Please?

I am tired of being tired.
I am tired of being sad.
I am so tired of just being.

I come to the realisation that, once again, I am not alright.

I am not OK.
I am not fine.
I am not normal.
I am not stable.

Emotionally fragmented, my thoughts consume me.
Cyclical emotions feed into my loneliness
As a constant stream of malicious thoughts fuel my emotions.
They eat away at my self worth.
They chip away at my happiness.

I begin to fall.
I fail at everything I try.
I'm no good.
It hurts inside.

Please, somebody,
Just
Make
It
Stop.

This is an adorable piece. I'm really sorry you're feeling this way too and I hope you feel better one day.

Just read through your poetry and it's very well made! I enjoy both the writing and the deep concepts. It actually makes you think, and feel, which means you most certainly succeeded at making great poetry. I hope you continue to update this more regularly, because I really would like to read more

Thank you, I appreciate you saying that.

Thanks for reading—glad you enjoyed them. I don't really write as much as I used to due to various personal reasons, but keep an eye out all the same. I might try do at least a few more over the course of the year.
