First of all, thank you for coming to read what I have shared. Feel free to form whatever opinion about me that you'd like.
I try to hide that I'm hurting inside
When I'm asked, I just say that I'm fine
I'm sorry, but that's a lie
On the inside im dying,
i'm crying and wondering why
Meanwhile I contemplate ending my life
Life's no game, you don't win a prize
Happiness always comes with a price
I'm an addict and I can't help it
Yeah I know it's fuckin' selfish
But don't tell me you know how it is
When you ain't ever felt like this
You think this is the life that I'd choose
You try to walk in my shoes
Then you'll understand why I use
I sit down and I take a hit off my pipe
Doin' what I can just to feel alright
It helps me hide the pain from my past
But the feeling just never lasts
I'm trying everything to numb my mind
Trying my best just to feel fine
Trying hard to keep it together
But I don't think I will ever get better
I feel like I'm stuck, trapped
Under a constant attack
I'm being held back
You're hurting me
and everyone can see
But I still can't leave
Tired of fighting with you
All we ever do is argue
and I don't know what to do
So I follow my role models
Drown myself in liquor bottles
Struggling with mental health
I know I'm only hurting myself
But it's the only thing that helps
It's time to end it
This relationship is over
It's time for me to get sober

You’re not alone ever ❤️🫶
taintedpoet
@rinwolfearts Haha no worries. I just know theres probably a lot of people that will judge. Doesn't really bother me though.
taintedpoet
@lylasboutique <3 Sorry you had found this when you did lol, I know you already werent feeling too bubbly
lylasboutique
@taintedpoet it’s okay. 👌
rinwolfearts
@taintedpoet I got to let you read one of my songs/ poems one day. But anyways be yourself, screw the haters
milkgirl21
You and I have a lot more in common than I first imagined. You write well. Check out Ren Gill, a rapper, singer poet whose lyrics deal w addiction and mental health.
I would like to read more of your poetry or other works. If I may be bold enough, I would love to edit your work. There are a million different places to send your poetry here in NYC, you could get published! Let me know if this interests you.

I’m also an addict in very shaken recovery since Chris died. I’m also a writer. Mostly I write about unrequited love or lust, death, horror, psychological mind fucks, and music lyrics. Oh, and addiction of course. My cell if you need it is 646 455 7351
taintedpoet
@rinwolfearts Yes you do! and yeah, I know there's some that will accept me for who I am, I'm not going to go out of my way to make people like me anymore lol
taintedpoet
@milkgirl21 Messaged of course!
rinwolfearts
@taintedpoet let me know if you want to talk. I haven't really let anyone hear them, and I'm practicing my guitar again to get this music thing going. I let anxiety and depression get in the way of my true calling, but I won't anymore
taintedpoet
@rinwolfearts I'm pretty much always down to talk, that's up to you if you are comfortable sharing but I feel like everyone should be able to feel comfortable being 100% themselves and share whatever wanted without fear of judgement or anything. I'm still trying to figure out exactly who I am and my interests and everything lol.
8189794744 (or contact me however comfortable, and this goes for everyone)
rinwolfearts

rinwolfearts

Hi. Poetry and poshing. Who would’ve thought. Thank you for sharing your mind and heart with the world.
taintedpoet
@meltopian eh, just figured I'd leave some here for those that want to read. I my book will be published in the very near future, and will be incorporating various parts of my writing into the clothing I customize as well
jennbfour
You have a beautiful gift! The way you can express yourself is so important to those who can't! Sending love and light for your struggles and admiration for your bravery ☮️💗🐈
taintedpoet
@jennbfour Thank you, I appreciate that. I don't think I'm that good of a writer or anything necessarily but I definitely feel free to express myself and wish everyone was comfortable doing the same.

Powerful! You can recover’ I had five years sober. I relapsed October 13 of 2022 I just celebrated one year on December 12, 2023
taintedpoet
@lindseysamps745 YES! People can and do change, and there's nothing wrong with those that can't or aren't ready to. I don't judge anyone. Amazing accomplishment though honestly and I appreciate you sharing that here.
mcvintagebauble
very intense & well written. Praying peace & joy over your life.
shushus_closet
@taintedpoet never give up. I was an addict most of my life but God set me free. I have 14yrs clean & if I can do it, you can too. I'm gonna keep you in my prayers.
taintedpoet
@mcvintagebauble Thank you! Life is never easy and everyone has their struggles of course, I am glad I am able to connect with others though and hope to make others feel more comfortable about being open about any struggles they may be going through. I hope for nothing but happiness and love for you as well!
taintedpoet
@shushus_closet Definitely not giving up, although I can't say it's never a thought. That's a really impressive accomplishment! I wish I could say the same, I'm a true addict unfortunately. I can abstain from substances (not alcohol though this far unfortunately) I always feel a constant need for some type of distraction. It can be anything though, video games, caffeine, relationships, etc.. I appreciate all the love and support though thank you!
shushus_closet
@taintedpoet keep the faith its got me through.
taintedpoet
@shushus_closet faith has been a tough topic for me but I have much more faith/hope in myself than I have before. Thank you for the well wishes and positivity!
shushus_closet
@taintedpoet you can reach out anytime.
pamelahopkins99
Your gift, your heart, your thoughts, your words are all beautiful! I feel your pain and send all my hopes for you! I lost one son to suicide and the other is still struggling. Sometimes distractions are all we can manage, living moment by moment because day by day is just too much. “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s learning to dance in the rain.”
pamelahopkins99
We’re here to dance with you when you can, cry with you when you can’t, listen to you when you speak and share the silence with you in compassion! You are never alone!
taintedpoet
@pamelahopkins99 Im so sorry to hear that, if they'd want someone to talk to, im here. I'm pretty sure we'd be able to find something we both relate to. Having someone to talk to without worry of feeling ashamed or judged can make a big difference. I appreciate you sharing such personal information and always appreciate love and well wishes, and wish the same for you and your family and friends as well. Feel free to pass my number along to anyone that could use it 8189794744

def didnt come by you for no reason. something really caught my eye and im starting to think it wasnt the joker hat! LBVS.. anyways. im not the type of person that has ever made a friend over the internet or even in other states. but im glad i found ur page and read this because i feel like im your friend now. Ur poetry might seem only sad but i think it just made me take 123 steps back from my only answer in my head being death.
stampieblam
" the easy way out" but is anything actually easy in this state of mind ? Fck no. fck no. just saying. thank you. sorry for maybe commenting on something old. its okay if nobody understands what i wrote. i wrote it for personal reasons really. and right now i know im talking to anybody in the world...but for some reason im not holding back almost like its just me here.
