Offerings for the dead
Poetry / by yourlocalIKEA

...See more Offerings for the dead A bouquet of flowers, long withered. Yellow-tinged petals, a drooping stem. It lies lifeless like the tomb beneath which memories have crumbled away. A lone doll, broken like porcelain, Dangling limbs, a greyish pallor. Damp cotton spills out of its torso To tell a story for its master. A bottle of wine, still crimson red. Brown, curtained glass, a delicate design. The closure remains sealed, unopened For there is none to celebrate with. A framed card, wax-covered envelope. Half torn paper, the ink smudged and blurred. The saint sitting silently on top Betrays the sins they once committed.Ā  I stand selfishly with no tears toĀ  Shed for you who left me alone here. With nothing to offer but my love, Sweet love to leave nothing in ruins. To those despised, to the abandoned, To those unloved, to the forgotten, Even when every trace of you is Lost, I shall weep for you, solely you. This is just a poem I wrote for my English homework. Hope you like it (:
[TW] Numbness
Reading & Writing / by yourlocalIKEA

...See more An emptiness at the back of your throat, a murky feeling lurking at the pit of your stomach. They threaten to consume you whole, Have you ever drowned in that? Those moments when the laughter of othersĀ  ring in dissonance, raw and untamed. The objects around you seemingly opaque, but you stand in the middle, transparent. When time slips through your fingertips, like sand sliding down an hourglass. You reminisce your childhood memories, but it leaves a saccharine taste on your mouth. The sensation of prickling needles, that fixes you numb in its place. As if someone stitches up all orifices, and leaves a small enough gap for you to breathe. You scream, shout, cry, pleading for this turmoil to fade away. And when you wake up from this dream-like haze, you are faced with the consequences of your actions.
What do you dream of?

...See more [TW- suicidal thoughts] 'What do you dream of?' They asked that simply, a simple sentence, to start a conversation. I stared at them, in complete silence. Dream? Job? I don't want any of that. I don't want to grow up. I don't want to reach adulthood. I don't want to get old. I don't want to live. I am selfish. There are many things I want to do. Graduating. Meeting new people. Achieving goals. But what comes after that? What would become of me? If I live just to achieve, would I die just to fail? If someone, something, anything, is to kill me now, Perhaps, I would not care. I have everything I want, everything within my reach. But I don't want to reach, I don't want to get what I want. I am tired, I know I'm selfish, I'm not supposed to want this, but just please, I want an end.
