i feel like crying Mood
Sunday, January 4, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

i feel so depressed and alone

i walk these streets

and i feel like i am not at home

i remember when i had a sense of inner security

now i bleed alone without a sense to believe

i feel pain alot in my body

which in turns fucks up my pyshe

i feel dreaded agony

i ask why live on this earth with misery

i cry inside and bleed

i wanna scream

i wanna go hide

i feel like a nobody inside

i cry tears of pain and i bleed again

i wanna be my own friend

but deep inside i wish my life would end

i know i am a good guy

heard that crap 2 many times

i just feel ugly inside

forget my smile and what i do

i am goin inside me

the real sidney who deeply always felt lonely

stupid dumb and am shocked really

when people are nice to me

today i was on the streets

and this guy said hi to me

i said hi shockingly

i do not know why people even care about me

at times i want people to hate me

i do not know why

maybe cuz it is normal

since i came from a family

that harbored negativity

i feel pain so deep

i can not even breathe

i feel like why be my own worst enemy

anxiety confusion illusions

why do i deserve to breathe

maybe DS is my asnwer

to help you guys see i am human

and just like you

and i can not be a pastor

with a great answer to life's cancer

but i can be your friend in need

just writin this made me

feel better and human

with no need to be superman

been hidin who i am

now i am fragile before you guys

cuz i am DS

and you are DS

the world is DS

we need innner love as strength

i feel pain

that is why i can relate

i may not have the physical strength all the time

or the mental edge to fight

but god will deliver me in due time

he will help all who are lonely in this life

just trust in him

but u have to be honest like i was here

we all have fears

and i am insecure paranoid in this worldy atmosphere

due to the fact i lived in fear all my life

i was told to hide my fears

while inside i died

turnin bipolarish

explodin on ppl like shit

oh man i feel a sense of release talkin abut my vulnerablities

afraid of bein or lookin weak has killed me deep

this mask must get off so i get really deep

into why i am sick and i need no therapy

i just need self l-o-v-e

i still hate myself at times

i know i am a good guy

but i feel so dead inside at times

i wanna cry but i feel numb inside

i feel like cryin now but i can not

i feel trapped inside

i am releasin yet my burdens seep into me

like the poison of a snake yearnin to kill me

i feel darkness hoverin around my soul

i feel the past takin its tolls

the good bad fightin inside my soul

i feel pain rupturin who i am

i feel afraid of who am i

i feel i will never get that wife

that i will die alone

that people will never love me

i feel invisible in this world

i need more self love

i need god

and i have it within

i just feel so distant

maybe i need to stop questionin what is

an d be grateful for bein able to live

no more time to look at BS

i have to get it

life is not about what was

i feel we need more self love

i need it

and  i will try it

i am bleedin

but is it worth actin so anemic

and feelin like a piece of shit

best to believe it

i feel the brain is my enemy now

i need to come to terms i am human now

i forgive all who did me wrong

i cry i cry

i cry inside

i feel like crying

tears fall on me

my pain my misery

lord please i feel like i am drowning

i forgive yet memories come like daddy i miss u

i never learned how to be a man

i thought bein a man was lookin tough

instead i feel dumb numb

i am tired of actin like a so called man

a man to me is a man that admits he is weak and human

and is deep within a true gentlemen

from weakness harbors inner strength

from dust i will rise from ashes

from hate and fear i will live with the best passion

i can no longer act soulless

i was born to feel to care

screw the world and it's negative affairs

the light is in me so i will care

no need to compare me

to another man's dreams

nice cars girls are not the true reality

reality to me is a sense of inner peace

i know i am a very attractive guy

who can make things right

my peace is my poetry

i feel it within me

i do look beneath to see who i am to be

i accept that i am sick and weak

but i accept that i can rise to be free

from inner misery even when life turns bad for me

no need to care about the bullies

who made fun of me

or my stupid dumb family

that me and mommy angry

fuck it all

i am manic and i feel i got it

from too much bullshit

my mind does flip into the underworld of i feel like shit

bein alone stimulates the bulshit

walkin around in parks

i feel i am in the dark

with demons ready to fuck up my own heart

i really am not scared about who i am

i know i was fucked up a bit

i still do feel fucked up

i really do not care if ppl here DS think i am fucked up

cuz i am just fucked up or worst than some

but i see ppl we call bums

are more fucked up

i am who i am

can not apologize

i just accept the good bad

and i pray to do right

god loves me 100%

so fuck tryin to be fake

i am me and i am great

fuck what the haters say

fuck them all

i will be me

    Having down days myself lately but can't quite figure why?.. Nothing compared to the pain you are feeling. Your words truely touch me and do bring tears to the tops of my eyes.. I truely wish I could (((Hug))) you in person .. Somewhere inside you have to know you are definately worth so much...Crying is not something I do easily also on the outside..Most to never ..Please tell me you definately saving these off the computer (your words) cause I wrote many poems and just spillings of myself awhile back at another place and did forget to print or save them for myself and something happened at the site and I lost them.. So my words are out there somewhere..*Sigh..
    (((Hugs Hon)))

    You are a good person, and you have much love in you. it's very apparent.
    you are a good man, and I think you right a real man, does show his sensitivity...being tough is a bunch of macho bullshit. I love men that can talk about their vulnerabilities. It makes you human.
    you take care of you, and tell yourself everyday you are a good man.
    I am a mother of a bi-polar daughter. it was hard when she was growing up. back then, the word bi-polar never existed. so drs. would say nothing was wrong...have more patience. she always hated herself too. I would tell her what a beautiful loving person she was, and she would always put herself into the ground.
    I think she is a wonderful human being, and when she gets manic on me, or out of control, she comes later to say sorry, and I always hug her and tell her I know she is sorry and I know she didn't mean to do what she did.
    she was given meds that helped tremendously...but she decided she didn't want them, because they made her normal.
    but I've watched her put herself into the ground.
    and her self esteem left her, and confidence left her. I wish I could fix it fo rher, but I can't.
    all I can do is be loving and caring.
    she knows I love her, no matter what.
    you take care of yourself.....and smile a smile for me.
    hugs

I felt like a lot of this was written 'bout me. But I like how at the end you said "i am me and i am great". That's awesome. ***BIG HUGS*** Take care and blessings.

  13. 2alone

    I feel your torment as I read your poem. Being bipolar causes me to go up & down, trust God & not trust God, love myself, hate myself, feel hope, feel dispair. You communicate so well in your poetry, of how you are feeling & who you are. Thanks so much for your openness. I'll do my best to be here for you, to encourage you & give you strength to go on (with God's help, of course)
    Love you, brother,
    Debi

    I feel like you just wrote my emotions, every one of them, into your poem. Thanks for putting it online so that it could be helpful to others like me. God Bless you!

  16. sharingangirl28

    Wow this is incredible. I'm so sorry I have depression also but I will never say I know how it feels to be you. No one will ever know exactly how hard it is to be anyone else. I am also shocked at how wonderful and open and caring the people on here are. They accept everyone and stay open minded. It's incredible, no one I meet is like this, I'm so glad people on here are so kind.

  20. asadheart

    WOW! This came from the HEART! You have guts. Not many people would ever reveal these skeletons. But you peeled back many layers,exposing truth so raw and deep. Thank You and God Bless You.

  21. nodoubtnofear

    Bless your heart! So much of what you've written, I have written in different poems. I have been there, the numb feeling,apethetic to everything(i wanted to care, just couldn't),feeling like I'll never get married. I've been there, can't say I know exactly how you feel, but I know that as long as you have hope and faith in the Lord, there is definitely light at the end of the tunnel. Don't give up on yourself. I believe that we go through the dark times so that once we get to the light, we can be a blessing to others in similar situations. Touching poem. May God continue to bless you.

  22. PolarBearz

    That poem is how I go through life 1000%. I'm sorry you feel as bad as I do. But I feel better knowing someone else feels the same way. It's like you're alone on an island and then finding a puppy.

  24. Gennifyr

    What a great poem. Very easy to relate to; I feel different form how I did when I started reading it. I hope you learn to love yourself, because you are worth the love!

  25. EnergizerBunnyHelen

    This poem shows that all of us ''need help'' and even as a nation!
    We have to look to the ''outside'' of ourselves more..on to the good things that are in us and others.. it's really hard many times to do this, it has helped me in the past, it's a lifelong journey and some journey's are hard to make, but, we can't give in to the thoughts that make us so alone or so sad or so mad..I don't claim to have the answers; but I do know that negetive thoughts breed more negetive.
    Look.. there is Sunshine and better things for tomorrow!

  26. afanador

    thank you so much for expressing how my husband feels. I see strength in being able to talk about your feelings, if only my husband were so corageous. thanks for helping us non-DP better understand our dear ones with your same pain.

  28. Reyuna

    Wow...That's really deep...By the end of the poem I was crying...You've got a gift for poetry. I honestly feel like you pulled these things from my mind and wrote them down, though I know they were from yours. I feel like this all the time..Depression doesn't help it any...but I'm trying to get through it. You're welcome to talk to me any time.

  29. fiercelyfighting

    that was amazing moving and beautiful. and really true down to earth and passionate. thank you for sharing this.

    not sure if this applies completely, but it came to my mind when i read your poem. due to fighting trich, i never felt like i was worthy of succeeding and being great like everyone else who seemed to have it so easy. i felt so worthless and invaluable. but im fighting that feeling each day and love who i am and who i have become and fight to feel confident even while around others who seem brimming with greatness.
    so here is the quote. there is more to it but i didnt paste it here.:

    Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,
    but that we are powerful beyond measure.

    It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.
    We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
    gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous?

    Actually, who are you not to be?
    You are a child of God.
