POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The End?
Depression.
It's getting worse.
I feel like I'm falling.
Forever falling into this black hole.
I'm trying to climb out.
Yet when I try, I end up falling farther down.
It's getting darker.
Darker.
Colder.
Lonelier.
I put a fake smile on so that nobody can see how bad I've gotten.
Nobody notices.
Is that good?
Am I that good of an actress?
Or am I just that much of a wallflower?
Forever going unnoticed by everyone.
Deep down, I actually want someone to notice.
Somebody!
ANYBODY?
I want this to stop.
I will make this...
It's getting worse.
I feel like I'm falling.
Forever falling into this black hole.
I'm trying to climb out.
Yet when I try, I end up falling farther down.
It's getting darker.

The Kiss
So much pain.
I feel it everywhere.
What can I do to make it go away?
I use to know.
The kiss.
The kiss that will allow me to slip away.
Away into oblivion.
Do I dare kiss back?
Do I want to kiss back?
I use to.
But now?
Now I'm not so sure.
I use to constantly think about this kiss.
I know it'll take the pain away.
I know it'll make me feel better.
But will it make others feel better?
I've been told that it won't.
All my life I've been thinking about others.
So why not think about me for once?
Do I...
I feel it everywhere.

Birthday
March 7th.
It's going to be lonely.
Why did you have to leave?
Nobody remembers it.
Dad had to guess.
10 times he guessed.
I had to tell him when it was.
It's not fair.
Why you?
Everything good in my life.
My world came crashing down around me.
I try to put the pieces back.
But people keep knocking it down.
I don't know how to fix it.
So empty.
So lost.
So alone.
Mom.
I miss you.
I still cry.
It's not the same without you here.
I'll be alone.
I am alone.
March 7th.
Happy...

My Promise
You tell me not to love you.
But how can't I when I fell so hard.
You say you care about me.
But if she asked you to get back together, you would.
How can you switch so easily?
You keep saying you care.
But I don't feel it.
It feels like you are pushing me away.
So you don't get hurt.
So I don't get hurt.
I want to show you that you don't need her.
I will show you that you don't need her.
You may have forgiven.
But I haven't.
I haven't forgiven her poisenious words.
Words that broke you down.
Words...

Alone When Together
You and me.
In the same room.
So why do I feel so alone?
You are always on your phone.
Text.
Call.
E-mail.
Never talking to me.
NOTICE ME
But no.
Always someone else.
I scream in my head for you to notice me.
I want to go.
But when I try, that's when you notice.
I end up staying.
Still screaming.
Is it worth it?
Is he worth it?
Am I worth it?
Because right now I feel worthless.
Hours go by but you still don't notice.
Too wrapped up in your phone.
Has technology really put distance between us?
I feel...

Strange Love
I feel hurt.
You tell me you love me.
Yet you still love her more.
You say you're confused.
I told you this would happen if you started to talk to her again.
I feel so unimportant.
Worthless.
But I can't blame you for everything.
I knew.
I knew you still loved her.
I knew I was going to get hurt.
I knew.
Why?
Why did I continue talking with you?
Because.
Because you were my escape from reality and myself.
Because you showed me how to start loving myself.
Because I fell in love with you.
I want to be there for you.
But...
You tell me you love me.
Yet you still love her more.

For my love
These new feelings.
I don't know what to do with them.
Most are happy feelings.
But I have sad ones too.
Alone.
Scared.
Depressed.
I want to be with you.
I want to make you happy.
Only me.
Yet others make you happier.
What do I do?
How can I help?
Why can't it just be me?
So many girls.
The ex.
My heart hurts.
You're talking to her.
My heart is in pain.
My stomach is in pain.
I want to throw up.
Why?
Why are you talking to her?
Weeks ago you wanted nothing to do with her.
Why now?
Will you go...
