POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Cut, Cry and Bleed.
I felt this anger taking over me,
As I pushed you to the ground.
You yelled and begged no,
But I couldnt stop myself.
I had such an urge to make you suffer,
For the pain you caused me.
For all the times I just wanted to
Cut, cry, and bleed.
I yearned for an escape,
One that I never found.
An escape from this world,
All these creeps and maniacs.
But now I've realized I am just like them.
Your arm was bleeding,
Your blood all over my hands.
Dripping onto the floor.
Your skin under my fingernails.
One more hard hit,...

Beautiful Tragedy.
The church bells ring.
It's time.
This sunny July day.
It's Saturday.
I'm riding in this car,
My hair in a slick, curled ponytail.
A veil over my face.
Im wearing this warm pink color dress,
Suiting my body like an hour glass.
The car stopped and I stepped out
Slowly, careful of my heels.
Iwere standing in front of a white chruch,
Grass surrouding it.
I walked through the doors and people
Were piling inside,
Taking their seats.
I stood next to the preacher,
Everyone waited for the Bride and...

I'm Inadequate. It's not Impossible. But Improbable.
I walk into the Gymnasiam,
And it's jam-packed with
Hundreds of students.
Throughout those students,
I spot you in an instant.
You're sitting up in the bleachers,
Your hair tied back,
As usual.
Your're wearing my
favorite shirt of yours.
You stand out in the whole crowd,
Like a rose in a bed of thistles.
I could see you from miles away,
You smile so bright,
Shining like a star in the dead of night.
There are cheers and loud music playing,
Everyone is warming up and excited about
The coming...

I Dont Love You.
This bruise marks the spot where
You had your tight grip on me.
You pulled me by the arm,
And told me it was urgent.
So I rushed along with you,
My feet tripping over one another.
I was walking too fast.
You shove through crowds of people,
In this busy and largely populated city.
Some people making rude comments, getting furious.
You then pulled me through bushes.
We finally reached our destination.
As you pulled me into a meadow,
Filled with bright colored flowers and
Emerald green grass.
We were peacefully alone.
Tall...

Your Nightmare
Welcome to your nightmare.
A world full of fear.
A place where the impossible
Is acheived.
Where you become brain-washed
And conceived.
There's no such thing as dreams,
It's all reality now.
As the dark angels fly all around.
A sworm of demons drag you into
Their lair.
You no longer know what is blame
Or what is fair.
Nobody is considered alive any more.
This place is made of blood and gore.
Some people say your under a curse,
But I've seen things that are much,
Much worse.
There are rules you all most obey,
You...

Falling
I wish you had justripped my heart out,
Instead of shattering it to a million pieces.
I put all of my trust in you.
Look where that got me.
As I stand at the top of this 30 story building,
Im up approximately 300 ft high.
The wind is rustling in and out through my ears.
The clouds are darkening and hovering over me.
I take a step foward and Im now at the edge.
The people that are walking below me,
Talking on their phones,
Just might witness a death today.
I hear the hoarse caws of the crows
Flying above and around...

Love. Goodbye. And Jealousy.
I'm sitting here on the stairs, by myself.
The wind blows my hair and
Sends goosebumps up my arms and legs.
It's 3:53.
The breeze russling the leaves on the trees,
Shaking the branches.
Birds are flying by, swopping down close to me.
Ican hear you laughing and screaming
Your high-pitched,random scream,
For no reason.
I love the smell of the perfume your
Spraying as it blows in my direction.
Your only steps away from me but
For some reason you feel so far.
Now you're making your way over to me.
You're acting weird, being yourself....

My Dream
Have you ever had a dream,
Where you dont want to wake up?
You just want to stay asleep, in that dream,
Because you feel safe and protected,
Loved and cared for.
There's nothing more that you want or need.
You have everything.
In my case, I had you.
And I could've sworn I felt you.
I heard your voice.
Your beautiful hair shimmering in the sun light.
You were standing all by yourself,
Until I walked up to you.
People were running all around us, screaming.
But to me we were alone.
I only heard...

My Intense Feelings
As your eyes flutter back open,
I remember the words that were spoken.
And the feel of your hand touching mine.
The warmth, the comfort, a feelingI cant define.
WhileI stared into your eyes,
I felt my heart dissipate.
At the momentI knew it was fate.
My heart just melted,I cant disclaim.
It was like a candle, lit by a flame.
So now whether you're near or far away,
In my heart you'll always stay.
And I'll keep my promise, whatever it takes,
I'll make sure it's your heartI never break.
If someone else does, Im here for you.
Just know...

For You I Live
As the blade cut my skin
And the blood flowed,
I felt my heart beating faster.
Oh, what a rush..
But i thought about
You the whole time.
I realized you are my reason
For existing.
So i stopped.
And got up from this
small pool of blood.
Now i hope this wont be a regret.
Because i was ready to die.
But i didnt..
Because of you.
(Im not emo. I just made this up.)

My Everything
This road ive taken has been full of surprises.
Its had it ups and its downs.
But at this point, its nice and smooth.
I once lost the best part of me.
And everything we planned to be.
But on that cold day,
You rescued my soul,
And stole my heart.
You took all my sorrow,
And just threw it away.
Now i cant get enough of you.
My love, care, and respect for you is unlike any other.
Your my love, my world, my everything.
[to my best friend<3]

When It's
When its all about that feeling..
When its all about the words..
When its all about the times we have together..
When its all about just having fun..
When its all about just letting go..
When its all about being myself..
When its all about not having any other care in the world..
When its all about the little things..
When its all about being happy..
When its all about the hugs..
When its all about who actually cares..
When its all about whos important..
When its all about who, at the least, makes you smile when you cry..
