POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hi, I have been writing off and on since as long as I can remember. I occasionally take a hiatus, but always come back inspired with new poetry each time. I would love to be a published writer someday, but as long as my poetry inspires, I'm happy.
Zombies' Picnic
If you go down in the cemetery tonight
You'd better not go alone
It's lovely down in the cemetery tonight
But safer to stay at home
For ev'ry Zombie that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Tonight's the night the Zombies have their Picnic
You'd better not go alone
It's lovely down in the cemetery tonight
But safer to stay at home
For ev'ry Zombie that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Tonight's the night the Zombies have their Picnic

Second Changes
If what I know today,
I knew back then,
Would I still make mistakes?
Would I still commit the sin?
But without the consequences
How will you learn?
If nothing comes of it,
You will just continue to burn
Your bridges and candles at both ends.
Because nothing happens,
You just do it again!
But I tell you this
And I'll tell you true:
I doubt Id be here today
If it weren't for you.
When you next think of your past,
Remember the consequences,
Because without them you'd have no
Second chances!

I Want To Feel Better
I want to feel better,
But I don't know how.
So I asked my friends
What they thought
I could do to feel better now.
They told me to
Just go with the flow.
That everything will fall in place
If you stop worrying
About falling on your face.
If I stop waiting
For life to come to me,
And just go out and grab it,
Then I can be happy!
I want to feel better!
And as much as I knew
They wanted to help,
They didn't by
Telling me what to do.
I want to feel better.
Because I can't just solve 'em
Clearly what
I'm not...
But I don't know how.

Don't Care
I told you that I needed you,
But you don't even care.
I told you that I couldn't take it anymore,
But you didn't care.
I told you that I love you,
And still you don't care.
I am really depressed,
And you don't even care.
I said I was going to kill myself,
But still you don't care.
Now I'm swinging from the fan,
Because you didn't even care.
But you don't even care.

What Do I Mean To You Now?
You treat me like a burden,
Just to slit my throat
And watch me bleed.
Did you know
That you were
My Best Friend?
Do you even care
Now that the damage
Has been done?
We used to be
The best of friends.
But I guess those days
Have long since been over.
And all I am left with now
Is the question:
What do I mean to you now?
Just to slit my throat
And watch me bleed.

What Am I?
What am I?
Am I a demon or devil?
A fallen angel?
Just some fellow?
Just another face in the crowd?
Who try to shout out
Never gets too loud?
Am I a sinner
Or am I a saint?
I can think of a million
Things that I ain't.
But what I'm not
Doesn't mean squat.
I need to know what I am.
There is no future
Without a past.
But is this feeling
Going to forever last?
I need to know
Now before I decide to blow.
What am I?
Am I hero or villain?
Am I saving or am I killing?
Am I about to take...
Am I a demon or devil?
A fallen angel?
Just some fellow?
Just another face in the crowd?
Who try to shout out
Never gets too loud?
Am I a sinner
Or am I a saint?
I can think of a million
Things that I ain't.
But what I'm not
Doesn't mean squat.
I need to know what I am.
There is no future
Without a past.

Going to forever last?

Now before I decide to blow.

Am I hero or villain?
Am I saving or am I killing?
Am I about to take...

You inspire me
When I thought
My inspiration lost
The thoughts flow
And gather,
Collect and pool
I must find
A way to drink
And take it in
I am liberated
And I can create
Once again
When I thought
My inspiration lost
The thoughts flow
And gather,
Collect and pool
I must find
A way to drink
And take it in
I am liberated
And I can create
