Stories of the Past

Rescue

Rescue

Feb 11, 2018

Let me call it how I see this. The ones who love you, let you go. The ones who hate you give you the words you always cared about. And self doubt always raging on, keeping you from what brings you into the light. Those who helped now run forward while you stay behind. Silence is too much from hearing the voices that yell what we starve. And the sins build up from one to many, from none to all.

Closure is all she asks for, all she wishes from her parents fighting in the next room. She stares into the mirror of the imperfect body, wishing her size was smaller as she throws her meal in the trash. She sits alone everyday. She writes 'ugly' on her skin with a marker. The words they throw her way, they push her more on the edge as they haunt her. She couldn't see past the taunts. She starves herself and wishes she was a perfect skinny model.Her parents don't notice.She just wants a superhero to take away the pain.

He watches in silence scribbling broken words as the yells become louder. He focuses on the razor blade that sits in his palm while he cries to himself. And he feels alone that no one else can see his pain. His dreams all crushed in sins as he cuts, 'Burden' into his tainted skin. The pressure follows him when he takes 10 steps back. His dad drinks and his mom works long nights. He takes a pill everyday hoping one day will be his last,he just wants closure.

And now we all wait for the change. Waiting for the ones who will stay beside us. Waiting for the world to stop turning its back on us. Waiting for someone to lead us forward, to give us the ground we need to stand. To be inspired to stop running. To stop crossing the line. To let everything go that we've been holding in. To let the thoughts be clear.

To be rescued.

These are from when I had a DeviantArt account, I don't post there anymore and thought it'd be good to have them here for myself to see.
