[TW] Poetry by Jefferythebunny
Hi, i write alot of poetry and i thought i would share some here. the first one is titles Beautiful Field.
CW: this poem is about a girl having a panic attack and its using a metaphor of cars and highways and its very emotional
Can't we just sit here
Sit here and watch the world
Watch the breeze
Watch the clouds
Watch the flowers
Forget about the fear
Forget about the pain
Forget about the past
Cant we just be here now
Enjoy the moment
The beauty
Of the breeze
Of the clouds
Of the flowers
Release the fear of
Being alone
Because right now
I have you and you have me
Stop worrying about the future
Stop worrying about tomorrow
Stop worrying about when will it all end
I want to hold on to this moment
Forever
Hold onto the breeze
To the clouds
To the flowers
To you
What a shame
This field isn't
It's a little patch
Of beauty
In a freeway
I grasp on to my moment
As the gentle breeze
Turns into rushing winds from the cars
As the fluffy clouds
Turn into smog
As the flowers
Turn into a memorial
I grasp to you
As the cars blow you away
I hold as tight as I can
My finger nails cut into my hand
And your gone
Like you were never here
in the first place
My favorite memory
Light and airy
Filled the void
In my heart
But now the moment is gone
And the void
Is deeper than before
The fear of abandonment
Has left me alone
Lonelier that before
Because now I no
There is a way to fill the void
The cars keep rushing past
With every passing moment
My happiness gets farther away
Pushed with the force of 10,000 tons
Farther and farther
With an alarming speed
The roads grow
More and more
Closing in on my field
The 2 way street
Becomes a 5 lane highway
My field
becomes a lot
Ramps are added
My field shrinks
Multiple story over passes emerge
My field is now as big as my feet
I reach down to grab the flowers
But they wither
They crumble into the wind
I try to grasp the cloud like fog
It disperses into the air
I desperately try to inhale
What is left of the sweet breeze
The wind overcomes me
All of a sudden it's too much
The cars are too fast
I start to shrink
The wind is too strong
My hands go up to my ears
The commotion is too loud
I try to curl up
But the road is too close
And my patch is too small
Thus might be my last poem
I'm sick of creating rubbish
And I'm tired of existing
Tw- sh, su!c!de, Ed?
I'm waiting to let go
Waiting to release
To remove
But in order to let go
I have to get out of bed
Out of this space
Which seems impossible
I cannot act upon thoughts
If I cannot act upon anything
I cannot unalive
If I can't get out of bed
Part of it is fear
If I get up
I'll find the beauty
Find a reason not to leave
Something to keep me here
I can't have that
I need to let go
I need to say goodbye
So I write
To all my friends
I love you
And I'm sorry
Be okay without me
I know I'll never be able to move
Be able to act
But
Saying goodbye
Is almost as painful as d*ing
I pick
And I scratch
And I burn
And I cut
Knowing it won't end it
Just make my existence more painful
Isn't that what I want though
To leave
To perish
To rot like garbage in some hole
To perish
Is triumph
To live
Is To fail
But also isn't perishing
Cowardly
Does it make me a coward
Because I can't live anymore
Hold your breathe
And close your eyes
Hold your breathe for as long as possible
Til your eyes water
Till yoy are shaking
Till every inch of your body
Every damn centimeter
Burns
That is what it's like
To live
To be me
To not perish
I cannot will myself from this bed
But I cannot live
I cannot d*e
When existence is too painful
I cannot sleep
Because I'm too tired
I cannot eat
Because I'm too hungry
I cannot see
Because the light is too much
And so I wait
@Jefferythebunny319
please be okay, twin. i know it hurts. do what you can to ease that pain. i love you and im always here for you okay? <3
i said i was done but i honestly don't care. im so sick of existing and producing garbage but yk what, no one reads it anyway
Tw: system stuff, invalidation, fake claiming, and talking about walking off a metaphorical cliff
You tell me that i’m valid
As long as I don’t feel a certain way
I'm sorry this is popular
Im sorry tik tok made this fun
Im sorry that it seems common
But your biased sample pool
Doesnt prove to be worthy
You can't walk into a room full of gays
And you can't look at them
And think, wow homosexuality is popular
The media is making it seem fun
So why must you walk into a room
Of mentally ill teens
And say
Woah a lot of you have mental disorders
I'm sorry *** made this photo-worthy
Tik tok made it fun
I've been feeling like this since before tik tok
But because it's popular, it's not worthy
Sure some people fake it
They think it's cool
They think they want this
Because tik tok made it fun
But there is nothing fun about this
Do you think I want this?
I didn't discover this on pintrest
Scrolling one day
Decided hmm maybe this is me
No i came searching for help
Looking
Struggling
Because i couldn't survive like this anymore
To invalidate me
After everything ive been through
Just hurts
I didnt ask for this
But i deserve the right to embrace it
Im a human being
We all are
Every last one of us
So say im lying
Say its a ploy
Say its popular
So fake it
Pretend you have it
Pretend its fun
Pretend you really have savages running around in your head
And when im gone
When i finally walk away
I hope you realize
At one point
We were alive
But to say we arent
Just pushed us further
Off the cliff we were already standing on
@Jefferythebunny319
the fact i relate to this isnt right. ive had people mimicking me, told im faking, etc. the world like to romanticize real struggles. <3
@NebulaCreation
exactly i agree, thats why i wrote an angry vent poem xD
@amiablebunny4016 @nebulacreation
I've decided to enter 3 of my poems into a contest, I will write a rhyming one for one of the entries, because that's what they like best (gotta give the people what they want), most likely I'll enter the Beautiful field (the first of this post with a lil bit of the second kinda a blend)
But I wanted to ask if you have any opinions for the 3rd?
Lemme knowwww
@Jefferythebunny319
i think all of your poems are great! im not great with feedback haha but good luck!
@Jefferythebunny319 Thank you for sharing. I love reading poetry about people's emotions!
title: the man across from me
tw: sh,ed,abuse,sewerslide
I look at this man
Sitting across from me
Is he breathing?
Is he alive?
Is he even human?
She sits there
And stares
Blankly at the wall
What is wrong with her?
Why is she the way she is?
Is there anyway to help her?
They move
Without a sound
Are the scared?
What happened to them?
Who hurt them this way?
He adjusts his sleeve
to cover the scars
Does anyone notice his wounds?
Do they believe his lies?
Will he ever stop?
She lifts up her shirt
I can see her ribs
Shes covered in stretch marks
How long as she been like this?
When was the last time she ate?
Is this the reason for her faded out eyes
Her hair falling out
Clumps cast away on the floor?
Are the yellow stains on her teeth from stomach acid?
They click
And snap their fingers
Over and over
do they snap to cope?
Do people yell at them
Just for existing?
He flinches as someone makes a noise
A tear falls across his cheek
Does he want to hide?
Was he born this way?
Or did someone make him this way?
She looks at my nose
Trying to look attentive
But eye contact is too painful
Does anyone care?
Does anyone else see her pain?
Will anyone notice as she continues to slip away?
They grab something sharp
I want to yell
Tell them to stop
But i cant move my mouth
Do they care about the scars?
Is there anyone who can help them not do this?
How can i make them stop?
As i look at the man in the mirror
And he looks back at me
About to make the dumbest mistake of his life
Of my life
Because the man across from me
Is me
She is me
They are me
The man across from me
Is just my reflection
I no longer care enough to stop him
title: post-modern souther gothic carcus
massive tw: eating disorder. i discuss calorie counts and measurements. i describe what I've done to my body on this journey and all the affects of it, please don't read if you don't wanna be triggered
‘Dont do this
Your hair will fall out’
I brush my hair
Trying to untangle the knots
I just washed it
And it looks dead
Its falling out in clumps
Maybe i should knit a sweater, it would help keep me warm
‘Dont do this
Your teeth with turn yellow’
I dont smile
Not just because i cant, but because
Of the damage ive done
If yellow teeth was a trend
Was a hype
Me and my stomach acid
Would have been popular
Finally
‘Dont do this
You will be cold all the time’
I adjust my sweatshirt
Its 90 degrees outside
And im freezing
Im shivering
I throw on an extra blanket
Atleast the baggy sweaters will distract from the fat
Hanging off me
‘Dont do this
You will be exhausted’
Im ready for bed
Its 10:42
In the morning
I slept 7 hours last night
Yet im exhausted
If i go back to sleep
No one will notice how much weight ive put on
My eyes are hazy
I look distracted
Not just because my attention span
Is non existent
But because
They look dead
I feel like ive been dipped in fire
Maybe i am dead
Maybe this is death
I cant be alive
Not after all of this
I want to stop
So desperately to stop
To look alive again
And not
A post-modern southern gothic
Carcass of a man
Im starting to look good though
I was big
Now im small
Not small enough
But smaller
People are nice
People complement me
Not like they did before
But My chest is too small
My waist is too big
My thighs are a mess
So i keep going
I count the calories
Instead of 900
Today i will do 8
I dont care i need 1200 to live
I cant live unless im smaller
I keep going
I keep measuring
My waist is 24 inches
I need 21
To be the perfect 31:21:31 ratio
I squeeze the measuring tape smaller
23.75
23.5
23.25
23
I release because i need to breathe
I will do better
Will this keep going until i fade away?
Will i get help?
Or will i finally be perfect?
@Jefferythebunny319
think of it this way, twin
why smaller? who are you trying to please? your parents? society? yourself?
i know what its like going down that rabbit hole. it never ends. it will never be enough. im sorry to sound harsh, but youll never be satisfied with the way your body is.
you need to let go. doesnt have to be now. doesnt have to be soon. but you do need to.
what happens if you get sick, or something happens, or you take medication that causes the progress to go away? youll feel worse
i know its easier said than done. but you will end up doing this, cutting more calories, every single day of your life, watching your body shrivel away as you keep thinking "smaller" "more" "not enough". itll never be enough, twin. trust me.
im here for support, and i love you just the way you are. if anyone, including your mom, say differnt- chances are its something theyre struggling with themselves. i believe in you. <3
@NebulaCreation
I'm trying to please myself. But also I'm doing this for my mom, and my brother, and my ex. I can't help but think if I was tinier it wouldn't have happened.
I'm trying to let go. I really am. Everytime I make slight progress (like one time i ate 3 meals a day for an entire week) I just ruin it all by looking in the mirror.
I wanna tell my therapist next time I see her because I'm so sick of the physical affects. It's just really bad yk.
The rabbit hole is never ending and I feel stuck.
I do want to get better, but I also feel this crushing feeling to be smaller. And that I don't deserve the food anyway.
🥺🥺 thank you for believing in me
@Jefferythebunny319
yes, talk to your therapist about it, it may help <3
yougot this twinnie
@NebulaCreation
i just dont wanna get invalidated or end up in grippy sock land and my mom hate me for it
@Jefferythebunny319
grppy sock land will only happen if your therapist believes youre in danger of yourself <3
@Jefferythebunny319✨❤️
NEw poem im jist ventin this time no editing i want it raw
title: what if?
tw:sh, bullying, ed, general mental illness, suicide, hospital
what if I told you I had a chronic illness,
multiple, raging through my body, causing endless struggle?
what if I told you there's a pill I can take,
but it only makes other things worse?
what if I told you there was a cure,
but its expensive and I cant afford it?
what if I told you most people with these illness end up in the hospital,
and a lot of times they die?
what if I told you some days the pain is so bad,
I don't get out of bed?
what if I described to you the symptoms,
the raging pain, the constant coldness, the exhaustion,
the brittle teeth, the hair falling out in clumps?
what if I told you that I'm only a child,
and my illnesses prevent me from playing and being happy?
I'm guessing you would feel pretty bad.
I'm guessing you have this image,
of a kid, since I mentioned hair I'm guessing bald,
half dead, in the hospital, complaining about their pain.
I'm guessing you feel pretty bad.
I'm guessing your heart goes out to me
and you will tell me you'll pray.
Now what if I gave you my diagnosises
anxiety
depression
adhd
anorexia
would you still feel bad?
Would you still shed a tear at my story?
Im guessing not.
Youd continue to laugh at the barcodes on my arms
you'd continue to act embarrassed when I stim
you'd continue to ignore me not eating
you will whisper in the bathroom while I vomit in the background
if i get hospitalized, you will make fun of me, you will continue to avoid me,
say I'm contagious
then one day the loud speaker comes on
'please join us in a moment of silence for Avy.
last night they hanged themselves.
they were loved by our entire community.
they will be missed'
some of you will care
some will hear the announcement and know that at one point you weren't alone
and some of you wont look up from your phone
some of you will believe the lies
that i was loved
you will market me,
make me an example, pretend to care
but you wont change.
so tell me.
what if i told you that this was your fault?
what if your to blame?
would you care?
no you wouldn't
so scroll past my story
ignore me while im here
and just only care about the kids
who illnesses arent in there brain
because mine don't exist anyway.
Tw-ed, sh
im avy
im a mess
i have more scars then I can count
I'm lonely
and alone
I csnt think
let alone leave bed
I'm ugly
inside and out
I'm just a boring person
I have absolutely no talent
I don't mean anything to anyone...
But I'm also avy.
Avy who says the most out-of-pocket things.
Avy who is somewhat funny
avy who just wants less pain for everyone.
Avy whos good at makeup.
Avy who likes to read.
Avy who will sacrifice the food of their plate for you, no matter how hungry they are.
How can I be both of these people at once?
Who the *** am I?
TW- sui and caps
It takes a different kind of genius
To be who i am
Genius…
Genius…
Genius?
Maybe insanity
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over
Over and over
Over and
Over
And over
Expecting different results
So why do i awake everyday, expecting different results
I feel my clock ticking
Ticking away
Each tick subtracting a second left
Tick tock
Tick tock
Louder and louder
Tick tock
Tick tock
Tick tock
TICK TOCK
Eventually my clock will stop ticking
My heart will stop beating
302400 seconds left
302399
302398
302397
Tick tock avy you are out of time
Theres only so much time left
Time until you go home
Where even is home
Home is peace
Tick tock….
I dont know if i will end up in heaven or ***
I dont believe in that crap
Once im rid of this body
Of this life
Ill just float
Floating out of this horrible life
Free at last
When you wake up on saturday
I will be free
Free as the wind
The world will be brighter and calmer
And until then
Tick tock….
On the outside im doing better
Im clean
Jesus crist im *** clean
And happy
And im eating
But im running out of time
I just wanna be happy at the end
Tick tock….
