Subject: Suffocate

Here's an old poem I wrote back in April of last year, all about my thoughts during depression! This does not relate to my thoughts now, for knowing all of you dear friends and my teachers at school, I am now a new person!

Suffocate
By: Noah Eaton

My world is trapped inside a bottle, corked in by darkness
Sometimes I feel so lost, I feel like the only tree standing, dying slowly and painfully
Now I’m being shed at by the sawmill of sadness, my horn is tearing apart
And I feel terrible having others know me and be part of my world, leave me to be

I am a jaded genie, cursed and never can be set free
My skin is cold, my tired weary eyes struck in desertification
There is nothing left of me, I am petrified
My life is an Energizer bunny, and now it’s dead, obsolete and forbidden

All I ever wanted was someone to talk to, who could understand who I am
Am I a fool to think that there is someone who could read my lips frozen shut
Am I a fool to think that there is happiness for me, that there is a love among us
I guess I’ve been simply deceived by the joker, all my kings, queens, and jacks have fallen

I feel like a ghost, and no one can see me
All the forests in my world are dying away, and I can’t breathe
The smoke and fire can’t clear, my garden is nothing but a badland now
My skin is burning, and there’s no water to settle it

Save yourself, leave me alone to fade away
Save yourself…

Because I am suffocating
I am dying
Please tell me where my world has come to be
A place without love, full of depression and misery
Please save yourself
You have your own life to spare
All these cruel games are tearing my heart apart
Please give me some time to be alone before I disappear
I am a fool
I am worthless
No one loves me, no one can see me
I’ve lost everything
I’ve lost it all…
I’m nothing more
Than a sad boy
Suffocating…
