POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Words
words thrown
faces cold
water shallow
understanding more so.
not sure on what to do.
forgot
just almost about everything...
Words dancing
on her mouth.
Words
racing
to the finish.
such a scheme.
Nervous look
dead heart
so much to say in
such a small voice...
such small lips.
Her eyes red.
Her eyes cold.
hear the morning call, hear life speak
nothing to say
nothing to do.

little brother
hear you cry
out...
scream.
wonder what goes on in your mind
when your tears flow...
when you just scream...
scream
you scream everyday...
wonder what you are really feeling
as you rock back and forth
you cry
Am I really that disgusting?
the way you flinch
when I raise my hand
Am I really that disgusting?
can't you trust?
we are of the same blood
but still,
tears flow
out of your eyes
you are screaming...
rocking back and forth.
Back and forth.
can't help but to think.
What is going on in your...
out...
scream.

Sara
She tries to search
on a cold stone path
her eyes weak
glimmer in a dark passion
her motions changing
her mouth clinging
she doesnt care
warp into a world
where nothing is something
you just have to go find that fuck
just have to be loved
lasted through my lies
turned away
when something more comes
you ask why
I have no friends...
then go off
to get on
learn all of the rules
conform to it all
your giant lips
why are they so lonely
you are alone
its why they all lie to you ...

Hey
That breath
that drink
killing me
feels so real
and feels so wonderful
breathe in
Different sight
different everything
I could make you all vanish
I could do anything in the world
right here right now
laughing falling drinking
alone
on my own
it's not that bad
not that cold
for this moment as all vision
seeps to black
and they come to visit
such a wonderful time alone
and could I ever explore
if anyone was here
would they tell me to stop
stop whats keeping me alive
it is not that awful...

Candle
Her hands fragile
Her body weak
Her legs thin
Embrace with such a soft touch
can this moment last
will I forget
The exact feel
the scent
I remember it all
remember
the last time
only time
our arms wraped
together
years without
in such a simple light
put out now
a fast end to an age of hope
a lost battle
for someone full of strength
her legs
won't move
her hand wont shake
longer than now
a numb voice
a reality
how nothing changes
how your body will grow cold same as it grew weak...

a day without
stand across the walls
forms of a different view
throw my head out
throw my arms out
different view
different mouth
can't speak
another day
emotionless pain
different person
different heart
a different view
fogged in a haze
overrated battle
lost hope
this irony in these words
you need to get over yourself
I don't need any help
Can I sum up all of my pain into a lost smile?
Can I last long enough hiding in a bottle?
Can I blame every slash for every memory?
can I go on like this?

Always Alone
nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
will ever fix a thing
rise me up
beat me down
its all the same
crying
screaming
begging
drinking
it's all the same
nothing stays
hold me up so high
and throw me down
into the dirt
beat me down
and tell me how much we love...
hold you so high
and throw you down
into the dirt
beat you down
and tell you how much we love...
does it really ever last?
does it even matter?
can never satisfy
this need
of someone to just stay
I will...

A shadow
Sharp and cold
roses thorns
memories of today
of tomorrow
slowly fade away...
watch her rot
just for today
watch her burn
just for tonight
watch it all come together
fall apart
I miss you
first day
after night
first day
after war
wont you come
Is it like
this
I love you
memories of everyone
fade.
memories of yesterday
fade.
I dont need
this
so get out of my mind
watch the scars heal ...

The World
I hate everything I say
I hate how I dont try anymore
hate how I cant fix any of this
I hate how I cant stop
I hate this
I hate this...
If I could just close my eyes
and live
in a fake reality
without clouded thoughts
if I could just make everything stop
I hate this hunger
I hate this hatred
in my head
I hate it all
this endless trembling
these endless rantings
how im sweating
how I cant breathe
how I cant just find one more glass
somewhere
A shiver up my arm
crawls up to the back of my neck
I hate...

tonight I smiled for the first time
in months
I felt the world fall
and feels so fake
and feels so hollow
I felt it all crumble
but it was fun
I smiled
touch of death
for the first time
in it seems like ages
felt all the tears slip to a darkening room
a face
can barely see
I felt it all come back
tonight I smiled for the first time
a fake smile
I felt so alive
the first time in forever I wasnt thinking
head pounding
remove pressure
Oh I feel like Im going to suffacate
the only thing I can do to smile...

hiding in hatred
I hate this...
I hate everything about this...
past churning memories..
we laugh
I cant hide
words I wouldnt say
choke on my voice
worry more
try more
trying to hide
in these tears...
I try so hard to hide them from you...
hiding in a drink
hiding everything...
I want to tell you "I'm sorry"
a thousand times
for all of this I am doing
for what I did
all of these idiotic things
I hate this I hate everything about this
I hate it all...
these feelings
I want to say "I'm...
