Sleeping

poem by: Nemo Nemees
Written on Jun 06, 2018

Breathing is hard
I dont want to live
I dont want to die
I dont want to go to the hospital
I dont want this life
I dont want this pain
I want it to be over
I want it to shut up
I want to sleep

No, i dont want to sleep. I want to be dead
But sleep is the closest thing to death i can get myself

because I dont want to die...
I just want to be love
and the lack there of makes me want to leave
makes me wish i was never born

So i sleep. 
I sleep most hours...
I know i need to eat
I know i need to brush my teeth
and shower
and get dressed

But fuck it
Whats the goddamn point? 

My mental illness has no treatment...

I take that back...

my mental illness is a personality disorder
so no one wants to deal with it
and i have no energy to fix it

So i sleep

and maybe thats what everyone wants me to do anyways.
Because when i am sleeping, they know they wont find me dead
they wont find me crying
they wont find me as empty as can be

they will just find me sleeping

I sleep because i am alone, but i am alone because i sleep, and i am done talking to people about this shit because i keep feeling like they start to hate me more
so I feel more unloved

I want someone to care for me, and hug me and feed me icecream...but why would they?
Why would they care
no one cares
i dont care

my bed cares

...

or so i pretend....

Your eyes change color as your god intended. Your smile glows as if angels reflected their light off. Your home stenches of bibles, And my burned skin. Your bedroom holds fires of wanted demons. The magic cards express ... Read more
