POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write most about my deeper thoughts and my failing relationships.
Death Once Again
Death.
I once thought it was mine to control.
Mine to play with.
And you know what?
It is.
It’s all a game.
The pills,
The way they slipped down my throat that night…
I loved it.
I was playing with Death once more.
And Death was playing with me.
We danced and swayed,
My vision faded.
Then,
Like a snap.
My vision returned.
Back in the hospital again.
They tell me,
“Do this and you’ll feel great again!”
I already feel great,
In fact,
I feel, ...
I once thought it was mine to control.
Mine to play with.
And you know what?
It is.
It’s all a game.
The pills,
The way they slipped down my throat that night…

And Death was playing with me.

Back in the hospital again.

“Do this and you’ll feel great again!”
I already feel great,
In fact,
I feel, ...

Him
Him
That ratty,
Shitty,
Disgusting piece of shit!
He thinks we can talk it out.
Talk out the years of my pain.
The years of my suffering,
All at his hands.
I don’t care for his letters,
Nor his calls.
I don’t care for his feelings,
Or regrets.
He never cared for mine,
So why should I care for his?

Train lights
High speed,
Bright lights.
They come at me,
With malice in mind.
I’m blinded by these,
Bright lights.
Torn by these,
Two eyes.
My heart it beats,
Fast,
So fast.
My head it pounds,
Hard,
So hard.
My life it ends,
So suddenly.
My past erased,
By the death of,
Me.

So suddenly.

Love
Love,
It burns,
It hurts,
Yet I crave it so much.
My therapist tells me,
“It’s not healthy,”
To love someone,
So much.
My ego is filled by others,
She says that’s not healthy either.
The void is filled by meaningless,
“I love you”s.
I used to be healthy.
I used to love who I was.
But now I am a wreck,
With no purpose nor cause.
The only things I’m good for,
Sex,
Money,
Love.

Danger
I may be in immediate,
Danger.
My heart races at the thought.
The thought of ending it all.
The pounding in my chest,
Thumps at high speeds,
Craving an excuse to end the beating.
The beating is so hard that it hurts.
So many things could end it all.
I could simply plunge a knife into my soft, delicate throat.
And let the red pour and spray onto my surroundings.
My being would be crumpled and it would be all my fault.
I put myself in immediate danger.
I do this all because I can.
The threats of a...

Death
I do not fear death,
Death fears me.
It fears the day that it will meet me at those gates,
Those flaming gates of hell.
Death is in the palm of my hand.
I can manipulate it to my will,
The timing,
The reason,
It could all easily be my choice.
With a bottle of pills,
Or a rope,
Tied in a noose.
Death is mine and mine only,
I will not yet manipulate death,
Though I can not say for certain about the future.
I will refrain for now,
Waiting until things get bad enough that they decide I need to leave...

Alone
Alone,
I feel so alone,
You who smiles,
And you who laughs.
Why can’t I feel like you?
Why must I feel so,
Alone?
I feel so alone,
You who smiles,
And you who laughs.
Why can’t I feel like you?
Why must I feel so,
Alone?

Do I
I always say,
I love it.
I always say,
I need it.
But when it comes,
Down to it.
I cannot say,
I seek it.
It follows me,
Everywhere,
Every night,
With every stare.
Those lustful,
Bashful,
Painful,
Stares.
That drive to be here and there.
In a bedroom,
Basement,
Or den.
Sucking,
Biting,
Sadistic men.
I must say I love them,
Say I do,
For if not,
What worth do I hold,
It’s true.
I love it.
I always say,
I need it.

Not Now
NO,
NO NO NO!
NOT NOW!
I-I was doing so good.
I was loving.
I was being loved!
Why must this feeling of longing return?
The yearning for someone,
Someone I can't have.
Someone I don't WANT!
It needs to go away.
I'm finally happy.
I will NOT let this, want, ruin it.
I need it to go away.
I need everything to go away.
Everyone.
Then I can't hurt people.
I can't hurt with my feelings if there’s no one to hurt.
I want to be rid of everything.
Fuck everything,
And...
NO NO NO!
NOT NOW!
I-I was doing so good.
I was loving.

Double-crossed
My head hurts simply to think of it.
I am forced to look through many lenses and shades.
Though the one’s who’s lenses I must peer through,
Will never take the time to look through my own.
I’ve been tricked once again.
I must see both sides and question myself constantly.
It irritates me.
It irritates me more than I let on.
Of course I don’t simply accept the deception.
When deceived,
One must remind the other where they stand.
This can lead to a never ending war.
Whether the war takes place internally or...

Sadness
I am not better.
I was so,
So wrong.
And now I’m sad again.
It’s the middle of the night,
As I write the words that are my emotions.
They are solemn and grim,
And full of sin.
I am dying,
Slowly but surely,
From the inside out.
From my mind, to my heart.
Soon,
Even my posture will show,
Show the horrid truths,
Of what lay beneath.
I am a son,
A boy,
A man.
Not a woman.
Not a young lady,
Nor a little girl,
Or a girl at all.
I am a boy.
I...
I was so,
So wrong.
And now I’m sad again.
