| E.D.D. | Left here in an empty space; deprived of oxygen.
Stuck just in this one place; I can hardly breathe.
A thick cloud of poison, rests inside these caved in lungs.
What exactly is this feeling?
My heart, it's still beating; yet something is... | Elijah Ramos |
| Tsundere | Here in the palm of my hand
Sits a box
Sealed up tight with a key
Nowhere in sight
It's my heart
That it holds within
Yet it remains unreachable
Please don't get too close
The bridge beneath your feet
Is up in flames
Take just one more... | Elijah Ramos |
| My Own Grave | Here I lay
Cold and not yet decayed
My body speaks in motions
I cannot relay
Abandoned in an empty room
With only a single noose
What was I to do
But simply give in to temptation
I left a letter
To whomever passes by
Well-preserved yet... | Elijah Ramos |
| My Heart Part II | Somedays,
I let you occupy my mind.
Most nights,
My heart still beats in foreign rhythms.
This heart that has been
Tattered and torn asunder.
You kept ahold of it,
For far longer than I'd like to admit.
The taste of love,
Still lingers on... | Elijah Ramos |
| My Insanity | Remember Edgar Allan Poe?
The quote where he said,
"I was never really insane
Except upon occasions when
My heart was touched."
Every beat of mine was just the same.
Every touch from you screamed insanity.
You were etched into my life,
Like... | Elijah Ramos |
| Cyanide Obsession | Do you know what it's like
To live with a self-made obsession?
One drop of this cyanide,
And I've spiraled into a depression.
I drank too much.
Now I've blacked out.
Thinking I could end my life.
But as I woke
From this dead sleep,
It's... | Elijah Ramos |
| My Purgatory | How long have I held my breath in for?
This weight I feel has been too much;
A heavy burden to have carried with me.
What will it take?
How far can I honestly go?
I'm burning up excessively;
A self-induced fever of sorts it seems.
How much... | Elijah Ramos |
| Strange Love | Put your palm on my chest
And tell me what this feeling is
A fevered dream
A loss of sanity
This love is clear
Yet somehow hazy
An unknown embrace
Hold me tighter
I'm sick of pretending
But that's all I am
A waste of a moment
A bitter... | Elijah Ramos |
| Open Wound | There's this open wound
Underneath my sleeve.
It's bleeding heavily;
Yet not a single drop can be seen.
It's like I took a part of myself
And buried it six feet deep.
This heart of mine,
It strays in the palm of my hand;
Yet for some reason,... | Elijah Ramos |
| My Heart | Take this tattered heart
And hold it steady now.
Take it away from me.
Lock it tight inside a room
I cannot reach.
It's my heart, you see.
The rhythm it beats is
Quite unknown to me.
My heart;
It's become a fragile little thing.
I took too... | Elijah Ramos |
| Laying There With You | It started out like any other story.
Laying there with you,
It felt so real;
Yet the reality is different now.
I want to reminisce,
I want to hold you in my arms,
The way I used to.
Kiss you the same as I always did.
But years have gone by,
... | Elijah Ramos |
| Insomniac | Here we go,
Let's begin this war.
To the other side,
Once I close these eyes.
It'll only last a moment.
However,
My mind is a vortex of emotions.
I cannot bring myself to stay asleep.
This late at night;
The monsters in my closet,
Are... | Elijah Ramos |
| Silence | Silence;
A form of respect,
A way to speak unspoken words.
I wept internally
As I, myself, could not show weakness.
They laughed at her as she walked in.
Abandoning the reason why they were there in the first place.
A past story for another... | Elijah Ramos |
| I Sat Alone | I sat alone, alone on such cold grass.
A gentle, gentle breeze during midday.
No need to hold back, not for anything.
Closing these eyes, I sat alone to mourn here.
A moment of silence guaranteed.
I am so, so finally... | Elijah Ramos |
| Alexithymia | Ask me how I feel
And I'll just sit there.
Contemplating.
Hesitating.
Unsure of what to say.
I'll tell you that I'm fine.
Letting you know that I'm A okay.
But I am different.
My reactions are somewhat flawed.
I assure you.
You can go... | Elijah Ramos |
| It Hurts | It hurts
This heart of mine
A self-deprecating little thing
How unfortunately full of misery
But what does it matter
It's who I am
Who I've always been
It's suffocating
And there's no limit
A sour dose of poison
It fills my lungs with all... | Elijah Ramos |
| Crevice | How am I supposed to feel now?
The road I paved,
Is filled with crevices and misery.
Stuck inside a mind so vile;
There are lucid things,
These eyes of mine cannot un-see.
The darkness that resides here,
A once pleasant company.
How am I... | Elijah Ramos |
| Pipe Dream | No matter where I go.
Every corner I turn.
Your face is all I see.
With that same old smile,
Those beautiful heterochromatic eyes.
And I can’t help it.
The taste of your lips still lingers.
And I want mine all over them again.
But you’re... | Elijah Ramos |
