POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
I am not a toy
My head is all over the place,
I can't even look you dead in the face.
I cry out of anger and regret,
But I will never forget...
There reason I drink is you,
But you will never have the slightest clue.
The reason I have these scars,
I chose not to jump in front of cars.
You always come across my mind,
Back then I thought you were kind.
With that smile,
Your innocents left me to denial.
Yet here we are today,
What else do you have left to say.
My heart is held together,
Maybe I should have been more clever.

I was once normal
I was thirteen,
All I wanted to do was smoke that green.
Made friends along the way,
Just to find out I was the one in the gray.
A guy I thought was there,
Was only part of a dare.
The lines were clean and deep,
All I wanted to do was sleep.
A week goes by,
I'll give life another try.
How will my friends ever understand.
I was fourteen,
I felt like a queen.
At least for awhile,
Until I saw your smile.
You saved me yet killed me,
Only to leave me.
Those pills were like water,
I didn't want to be a bother....

Demons.
This feeling will never go away,
No matter what people will ever say.
I drink to feel no pain,
Maybe I'll seem more sane.
These thoughts are telling me different things,
Yet my heart is held up by chains.
Don't judge me by my scars,
I never wanted to be put behind bars.
Demons surround me,
They will never let me flee.
Its so dark,
Maybe I'll go to the park.
Everyone looks at me,
Why can't they let me be?
I walk the streets,
Stared at by many people.
They say I need religion,
But all I want to do is stare at...

Will I ever be free?
This feeling destroys me,
But I can't seem to escape.
Why can't it let me be?
Everyday my heart breaks more and more,
But this bottle is what I'm here for.
The scars remind me what could have been,
I am nothing but a sin.
These pills I take are like water,
Everyday I am more of a bother.
Maybe one more will do the trick,
Maybe I won't feel as sick.
This bottle is only temporary,
Maybe I'll have a bloody mary.
This feeling destroys me.
But I can't seem to escape.
Why can't it let me be?
They will...

Smoke
why?"
The word I get asked everyday.
Wishing the pain would disappear,
Doing what everyone else fears.
Its takes the edge off.
Yet my skin looks soft.
I refuse,
I won't blow my fuse.
Maybe I'll add some booze.
I have nothing to lose.
Because I smoke,
People think I'm a joke.
If I stop,
I may just drop.
The scars say it all,
Never did I fall.
I drink to feel numb,
Only for the fun.
Only for it to never end...
It will be my only friend....

Killing me
Maybe they were right.
Maybe I should.
But how?
Maybe it was my fault.
Maybe if I did,
It would be better?
Maybe apologizing would help.
Maybe its to late.
What if it's to late?
Maybe they will understand.
Maybe I can fix this.
Who would be there?
Maybe if I did it once.
Maybe it won't be so bad.
Never know until you try, right?
Maybe I won't.
Maybe I should.
Why does it have to be like this?
Maybe if I pick it up.
Maybe I will then.
Will anyone miss me?
Maybe a second time.
Maybe if...
Maybe I should.

Always...
No matter what you say,
Everything will be okay.
No matter who we used to be,
You still mean the world to me.
I will always be here for you.
If you are lost,
I will be the light.
If you are in pain,
I'll be the morphine.
I'll be the shoulder you cry on.
No matter where you are,
I will protect you.
No matter what time it is,
I'll have open ears to listen.
I will always care.
If you're happy,
I'm happy.
If you smile,
I'll smile.
I will be the one to make you laugh.
No...

I hate myself
I'm in hell,
Maybe I'm just crazy.
I can't do this anymore,
I still love you.
I drink to try to forget,
Yet I can't.
I'm in hell,
Maybe I'm just insane.
I want to let you go,
But your all I think about.
I drink to take away the pain,
But it only get worse.
I'm in hell,
Maybe I'm just clingy.
I still love you,
But I hate that I do.
I drink hoping I won't wake up,
But I still do.
I'm in hell,
No matter how much I try....
I still die every day,
Killing myself with these memories.
I still can't get over you,...

Pain
It is yet another day,
Another day that I could have met you.
I still cry thinking of you,
Of what could have been.
I would give anything to see you,
But it was my mistake.
I was under pressure.
You would have been so beautiful.
All I ask,
Is to forgive me my angel.
I think to myself,
What would have been a good name?
What would it have been like?
What would your smiles look like?....
But I chose,
I regret it....
I truely do.
Please forgive me my angel.
Please understand.
I don't know why I did it..
I was against...

Wish to forget
I can do nothing but sit here trying to forget
Forget all the pain you caused me...
I found my true love,
Yet I'm still drawn to you.
My thoughts surround me.
Beginning to drage me back to the past.
I try to forget but I can't.
I can only smoke a cigarette,
Wishing I could be drunk.
Thinking it will help me forget,
I love him but I'm always finding myself thinking of you.
On the inside I'm screaming,
Just to forget and move on.
But on the outside....
I fake the biggest smile.
Confused and shaking all the time,
Just waiting.......

dead to me
I try my best to forget
To run away...
But everywhere I go I can't get away.
You haunt my memories,
And I don't know why...
This rage fills my lungs,
But nothing comes out.
I am tired...
Sick of running away,
When I know I can't....
I used to say I'm sorry,
For all of the stupid shit you have done.
I am stuck...
You are dead to me,
And when I see you.
A weakness fills me.
Yet I still say sorry,
You never helped me.
I feel used...
A toy for your satisfaction.
To be played with...
Makes my heart drop six feet...
To run away...
But everywhere I go I can't get away.
You haunt my memories,
And I don't know why...
This rage fills my lungs,
But nothing comes out.

please come home...
It was that day,
I saw him walk away...
He said to be strong,
To be there for my mommy.
With his bag in one hand,
He waved with the other.
They took him away,
Yet I did not cry.
I stayed strong for him...
Years pass,
Mommy never smiles anymore.
I never go out and play.
I sit by the window,
Waiting...
Another month goes by,
Mommy is making me get dressed up...
I put on my summer dress with flowers.
She looks at me and smiles for the first time in years,
A tear falls from her cheek...
"Mommy?"...
