POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Writing is my Passion. My way of expressing myself ☺️
Lost without words
Ive been so busy
Too busy to even write
Dealing with stress
Of every day life
I miss the feeling
Of a pen in my hand
The white paper
Without my writing is bland
But my mind is a blank
as of here lately
Dealing with school
My writing is shaky
I feel a bit rusty
I feel a bit lost
With no time to write
My feelings and thoughts
So be ready for more
Of my work to appear
Lets see if I can
Think and write clear
I know this is lame
But I had to let it out
So much built up inside
I...

Darkness taking over
I just cant shake this feeling
The darkness is consuming me
I dont know how to break free
Free from the pain and tragedy
Free from this evil im constantly facing
Is this how it all should be?
Can I change my destiny?
This tortuous pain won't go away
It leaves me with a feeling of great dismay
Is there any other way
To break free and no longer feel like a slave?
A slave to my demons
Lurking in the darkness
Never free from the shadows
That haunt me and cause distress
The darkness is consuming me
I dont know how to break free
Free from the pain and tragedy
Free from this evil im constantly facing
Is this how it all should be?
Can I change my destiny?
This tortuous pain won't go away
It leaves me with a feeling of great dismay
Is there any other way
To break free and no longer feel like a slave?
A slave to my demons
Lurking in the darkness
Never free from the shadows
That haunt me and cause distress

Im not a toy
Im not gonna be
What you want me to be
So stop messing with me
Cuz im in misery
Every word coming out of your mouth
Is full of negativity
So stop what you're doing
Quit playing with me
Im not a puppy
Coming at your every call
Im my own person
Not a toy, not a doll
What you want me to be
So stop messing with me
Cuz im in misery
Every word coming out of your mouth
Is full of negativity
So stop what you're doing
Quit playing with me
Im not a puppy
Coming at your every call
Im my own person
Not a toy, not a doll

Nature taking course
I sit and listen to
The whispering of the wind
The fire is dancing
In the moonlight
The leaves softly rustle
In the trees nearby
I begin to embrace
The darkness of the night
The darkness envelops me
Engulfs me in a soft embrace
I move about slowly
Savoring each moment
Then you appear
Right in front of me
There you were bathing
In the moonlight
Your skin glistening
Under the stars
You look surreal
And I know that you're mine
You're lips touch my neck
And you say that you love me
I...

Its over
I just can't stand the pain
The pain thats deep inside
Inside where I can no longer hide
Hide from my fears
My fears of being alone
Alone where my fears can reach me
Reach from deep down
Deep down to my bones
My bones which ache
Ache down throbbing pain
Pain thats driving me insane
Insane enough to let go
Let go of you
You and I are through
Through forever but
Forever doesnt seem long enough
Long enough to forget
Forget all the the heartache
Heartache and dismay
Dismay from being used

A perfect storm
pseudonymous and I collaborated the following piece :) hope u enjoy!
The dark night is crawling
The clouds are filled to the brim
I'd guess a storm is brewing
If I'm going out on a limb
The night that was magical
With the play of thunder and lightning
When ice was set on fire
By the force of a passionate storm
The lightning dances before my eyes
The thunder drowns out the sound of my cries
So let the fun begin
Which of us will win?
The melting night, the tremors of passion
A blanket warm and a...

You think you're all that?
You say im not good enough
You say im not pretty enough
That im not strong enough
Not smart enough
I dont need a guy like you
Who the Hell do you think you are?
Sitting around telling me what to do
You think you're perfect, honey far from it
You think youre God's gift
To women all around
Dont make me laugh
Youre just a clown
Disrespect me again
Ill make you pay my friend
You'll be wishing you were dead
Our friendship will never mend
Dont mess with me, dont even try
I yern for you to cry ...

My turn
I cant stop thinking of your face
The one that made me feel disgraced
You put me down for far too long
Now im too scared to say im gone
Your footprints are tracked
Up and down my back
From all those year
Of me being a doormat
Im done this time
I won't deny
Youre done torturing me
I won't lie
Your turn to be stepped on
Walked all over
Your turn to be a doormat
You thought you were clever
My turn to shine
My turn to survive
Im in control now
You answer to me, bow down
The one that made me feel disgraced
You put me down for far too long
Now im too scared to say im gone
Your footprints are tracked
Up and down my back
From all those year
Of me being a doormat
Im done this time
I won't deny
Youre done torturing me
I won't lie
Your turn to be stepped on
Walked all over
Your turn to be a doormat
You thought you were clever
My turn to shine
My turn to survive
Im in control now
You answer to me, bow down

You and I
In my dreams
Your hand is in mine
Your lips against mine
My head's on your shoulder
Its a dream but I don't want it to be over
Its my wish
That we are together
Through the stormy weather
Your heart next to mine
Its my hope
That you'll hold me in your arms
When im feeling blue
You tell me you love me
Your eyes prove its true
In my life
We grow old together
You and I
Your hand is in mine
Your lips against mine
My head's on your shoulder
Its a dream but I don't want it to be over
Its my wish
That we are together
Through the stormy weather
Your heart next to mine
Its my hope
That you'll hold me in your arms
When im feeling blue
You tell me you love me
Your eyes prove its true
In my life
We grow old together
You and I

Which path?
Dont known which path I should choose
I dont know what to do
My mind is so bent out of shape
There's so much at stake
Which path should I take?
Which one means heartache?
Should I take the rugged, hard one?
Or will the beautiful, sweet one be my undoing?
There are many difficult
Choices in life
Some bring happiness
Some bring strife
It all depends on what you choose
Would you walk in someone else's shoes?
some paths may be what's right
Others might take your life
Id rather live without any...

We're through
What kind of girl
Do you take me for?
You want me on my knees?
You want me begging for more?
I dont think so baby
Not this time
Youre driving me crazy
Im just trying to survive
You think you can control me?
Ill break you before you try
I choose my own destiny
Its you I despise
Remember the last time
You tried to bring me down?
I tied you by your feet
And turned you life upside down
I dont need any man
Especially not you
Telling me what to do
Im taking my stand
This conversation is through
And...
