Charis (God’s Version ✝️)’s comments from the poetryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy group.

yall ever read a poem about someone who hurt the author, and then you realize that you were that someone to another person??? 😭 really makes you think

dude that's so good

thank you!!!

Hear

Hears to those who struggled with self harm,
and nobody knew

hears to those who learned to cry silent tears,
for fear they would wake someone too

hears to those who didn't get the help they needed,
so slowly receded instead

hears to those who hate the smell of beer,
because they know what happens next

hears to those who are afraid of "i love you"s,
since the heart takes so long to repair

hears to those who's single parent did all the raising,
because the other never cared

hears to those who are enslaved to addiction,
and wonder how it came this far

hears to those who dream,
but only earn more scars

hears to those who suffer in silence,
who keep spiraling down

you didn't hear us then-
so please hear us now

Hush

hush little baby don't say a word
your silence is exactly what they prefer

hush little baby don't you cry
they'll just tell an even bigger lie

hush little baby don't make a sound
if u speak up, they gain more ground

hush little baby, don't speak the truth,
they'll twist your words and call it proof

hush little baby, don't take a stand,
don't even try, no one will understand

hush little baby, you don't get it yet,
they've had control since the moment you met

hush little baby, keep it inside
stay quiet while u slowly die

suppress the emotion, hide what's real,
keep it all buried, there nothing to heal

they don't mean it, it's just a joke
but soon enough, silence makes you choke

keep away, leave my emotions alone,
i've changed, they aren't yours to own

speak little baby, express yourself
learn it's okay to focus on your own health

speak little baby, stand up for what's right
don't let them manipulate you, put up a fight

go fund me for our therapy 😃

i'm reading all these poems and realizing how depressed we all are 😭😂

@ari 😭😭😭 that was so good. and again i'm here to talk if u need it

it's very good and raw and definitely made me think and get chills. it's a bit wordy tho, that's literally the only thing abt it tho!!! nice job dak, and you can always talk to me

Make it Stop

i keep telling myself im over it,
over you
and then i'm sobbing

my mirror is the only one who sees
my shower drowns my sorrow
the knife stares,
unaware of its hold on me

you look at me with hate
you despise your creation
can't you see what you've done??
the years of friendship,
down the drain
out of my body
like the rest of my pain

i'm done.

no i'm not
i cant escape you
you command my every thought
there are many strings on me
and they're all controlled by you

i'm sick of the lies,
of the pretending
every hour of my life is stuck thinking
of you, the monster
and yet loved by Him

my sin, my pain
my hurting, my pride
it's making me see you,
but with tainted sight
i'm blind to your good
i'm done with your bad

Why did i not stop it?
i tried to get away
i didn't try hard enough

i want it to stop.
...please.
make it stop.

Are you proud of what youve done?
do you even know what you created?
you don't see me at night
that's when bad thoughts come

you turn away in disgust
you think i'm the bad one
why can't you see what you've done??

my flowers,
i have two
they know everything about you

they see me suffer
and they know why
and they comfort me when i cry

two flowers, rooted in pain
both with soft petals
and past thorns
that have yet to be changed

they are there in a way,
that you never were

you left
i left
but the pain?
that stays

i need this to end.
i'm done with pretending.
i'm done with being broken.

i can't make it stop.
please, God.
make it stop.
