Literature Text
I keep telling myself I'm fine -
as if that helps any.
Helps any of the scars I've carved in my heart.
Helps any of the words I've engraved in my brain.
When there are people willing to listen;
I feel like they just can't wait for me to stay.
You know what I'm fine.
They can't wait for me to stop talking.
For my problems aren't their problems.
I could mean nothing to them -
after all, it's all over the internet.
So I'm fine,
I know I'll be fine.
My heart, however, still feels like it's caving in -
and it's going to implode on itself soon.

Literature
Human
We are all perfectly imperfect.
Human beings without being human.
Mechanical beings running without a clue.
Armed with our wrenches and screwdrivers,
we tighten up the rusty bolts and loose screws
finding mismatched parts
to try and fix the chaos in our minds.
But we were never given a manual,
so some screws stay loose forever.
Mechanical and mindless to the world.
Literature
If Only
It’s said that
Joy is in the ears that hear
If that’s the case
Then people should
Crank up the volume
And put some joy
Into their lives
If only it were that easy
If only!
Literature
Empty
I sat down to write you a letter,
I was going to let you know how I have been since you've been gone.
But the pen never reached the surface.
The paper remained empty.
And I realized,
There isn't a better explanation for how I am.

This poem kinda incorporates the "fake it 'till I make it" saying. I hope one day you'll really be fine. And I think that's one of the great things about poetry is that you can rant all you want and you won't be interrupted, you'll be heard completely.
Keep up the good work m'dear! : )
