i started this thread to see if anyone wants to share SI poetry that they've written.
at least 2 other forums have a poetry thread (the bipolar and borderline forums), so let's try it here... |

I'll go for it... I wrote this one after I broke a promise to stop... Definitely Triggering though...
Call it a burn Call it some heat Call it a burden Call it defeat Call it a cut Call it some blood Call in my tears Call in for a flood Call it intention Call it design Call it mistaken Call it malign Call it a breakdown Call it a lie Call it a meltdown Please let me die Call me disaster Call me through hate Call me right now Hang up, it's too late...

I don't usually write poetry, but this is one I wrote a while back about telling someone about SI (or rather, my inability thereof).
We were standing in the metaphorical and literal dark Cool breeze around us You were ranting And I was thinking but I didn’t know what to say. You asked me things that I Almost thought I had answers to But not really, And I could tell that you were disappointed Even with the dark leaves in your face. That one small dull fact That one excuse It was stupid. Sorry that was the best I could come up with. Because the truth was too hard. You deserved to know and I deserved to speak my mind But something stopped me. I was on the edge, I swear. Even here, with no one watching I’m so close but I just Can’t say it out loud. - AJ Last edited by grey_aj; Oct 22, 2013 at 10:30 AM. |

Oh- I wrote this that same night... When I am unable to dance, I write, so this is the other one I have.
A broken promise A broken heart I wish I knew Just where to start I've said it before I've said it to you I only make a promise If I can come through. I made a promise That for only tonight I would keep myself safe I would fight that fight No harm should have come Especially to me I broke that promise I messed up, you see It wasn't on purpose I promise you that But what does that mean, since my promise fell flat? A moment of distraction Was all it took I cut my finger My whole world shook It wasn't much.. It barely bled But how can you ever Believe what I've said? A broken promise A broken heart I wish I knew Just where to start

@aj. I know exactly what you mean... You know exactly what you have to say, but you just can't let it out. It sucks, it really does...

I actually get really confused trying to navigate this site, so I tend to stick to the SI section and the bpd section.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
