POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Writing is my Passion. My way of expressing myself ☺️
My mom
I write a lot about hate
About revenge and heartache
I write when im up late
And pour my feelings into this place
But I have so much
To be grateful for
Like my family and such
I love them to my very core
My mom is my rock
Always there for me
She is my best friend
And there when im in need
She gives her kids her everything
Without asking for anything
She would walk to the end of the world
For any of her family
When I was very sick
After leaving the hospital
I was too weak to make...

Insanity taking hold
Tired of being judged
Of being scrutinized
People say im crazy
But being crazy is not a crime
Cant ask for help or help a friend in need
Without being laughed at in my face
Im told to listen as decreed
Why must I feel so disgraced?
I have to look over my shoulder
To make sure im not spied on
Could they be any colder?
What have I done so wrong?
Why am I treated this way?
Want to move to a place
I need to get away
Wish I could make haste
And move to L.A.
But I dont think I could
Im too nice im told...

My story
Im just your average country gal
From Louisiana
Probably should have been born in the city
I dont like to get muddy
Hunting and mud riding are the norm
But they're not my forte
I prefer to read or write
Im mean, what csn I say? :)
My family is awesome
But we have our days
I have many chronic ailments
That keep me down and out
Thats were my depression stems from
Sometimes I just wanna shout
My heart's bern broken quite a few times
Ive only dated 5 guys
And im 25
Each one has broken my heart
Im just too nice I believe...

Controlled
Sick of being controlled
Of being told what to do
Who to be with, where to go
Being treated like I have no clue
I have a mind of my own
But for that, I get stoned
Like in the old days
Persecuted for who I am
I want to break free
But its just so hard
Want to go to the sea
Away from this control
I want ro live my own life
With whomever I please
Tired of loving in strife
I won't get on my knees
Won't ask you for a thing
Won't obey you anymore
You words, they do sting
So ill leave,...

Heartless
Tell me why did you lie to me?
Was it just a ploy to get to me?
Now im torn apart inside
I wish I could run and hide
My heart has been broken
A little each time
Its sad that you hurting me
Is making me rhyme
I would have given you my world
But our love you hurled
Into the shadows, into the dark
I dont understand why we had to part
You acted like you loved me
I guess it was a joke
You never keeled on one knee
My heart, you did poke
You poked it with a knife
I wasted my life
You...

Forget it!
Tired of being used
Tired of being abused
Was it all a ruse
The whole time I was with you?
Sick of being played
Its driving me insane
Their feelings always fade
They just want to get laid
Im not a toy
To play with as you please
You really think you're coy
I want you begging on your knees
Time to feel my pain
Time to feel played
Now you're my little toy
To play with as I please little boy
How does it feel?
It feels like shit dont it?
Now you see its real
Want forgiveness? Well...

Your turn
Cant you see what you're doing to me?
You led me on far too long you see?
I crave to make you burn
I crave to make you bleed
Im not the one to scorn
Your turn for the hurt
Your turn for the pain
Your turn for the heartbreak
Your turn to be insane
You'll never hurt me again
I'll beat you to the punch my friend
I'll literally knock you down to the floor
You have no idea what I have in store
I wanted to believe in you
But suddenly you were through
Ill make u pay
For all you've done
What more...

Im a fool
You've broken my heart
For the last time ever
You tore it apart
You thought you were clever
Im never coming back
Too many chances
Never said "I love you" back
Too many dances
They say third times a charm
Again its only done me harm
Thats too many chances
That You didn't deserve
You tore my heart in two
Now im through with you
Shame on you if u fool me once
Shame on me if u fool me twice
Im a fool for giving you a third
You led me on
Now im gone
No more chances for you ...

Thoughts taking over
My head won't stop turning
Thoughts constantly swirl
Cant stop the voices
Makes my mind whirl
It keeps me up at night
I can't shut it off
I try with all my might
To make my mind turn off
I toss and turn
My hair I pull
At all hours of the night
My thoughts continue to rule
So the pills I take
Is this a mistake?
Its the only way
To make the thoughts go away
Thoughts constantly swirl
Cant stop the voices
Makes my mind whirl
It keeps me up at night
I can't shut it off
I try with all my might
To make my mind turn off
I toss and turn
My hair I pull
At all hours of the night
My thoughts continue to rule
So the pills I take
Is this a mistake?
Its the only way
To make the thoughts go away

Every time
Every time you open your mouth
Its like a stab in my heart
You say you're headed south
Every word tears me apart
Did I do something wrong?
Were you gonna leave me all along?
Was I too loud
Though I never made a sound?
Every time you leave
It leaves me feeling empty
Every time we touch
Its like exctacy
Every time we kiss
I feel like im floating
But every time is a miss
When you're gloating
Im sick of never
Feeling good enough
Feel like I have a fever
Why are you so rough?

Alone
I only feel this way when im alone
To the side I have been thrown
I feel like nobody cares
I feel like everyone stares
Why must I be alone in this world?
Everything seems blurred
Its always worse during the night
My state of mind is a frightful sight
All I do is think
I can't shut my brain off
No matter how many times I blink
The darkness remains
Darkness all around me
Can not see a thing
I can not breathe
Feel like im suffocating
Its the worst feeling
Is there anyone out there ...

Sick of it
I can not think straight
Can not see clear
Its getting so late
What is this I fear?
I wish for a clean slate
Which way will I veer?
My fear is the pain
My fear is the loneliness
My fear is going insane
My fear is the distress
My fear is being to blame
Which path doin take?
Did I make a mistake?
Tell me its not to late
To change things in my life
To get ride of the strife
And avoid the knife
The fogginessn in my head
Just won't go away
tired of wishing I was dead
Tired of waiting for a better day...
