POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm just a wonderer... I tell stories from both personal experiences as well as from those around me. Everyone has a story to tell...I just so happen to be the one to tell them at times.
False Realities
I was lost,
Misrepresenting myself like a fool
Forcing myself to become someone that I am not
Blindsided by my false realities, at the worse mental state of my life.
Depression kicking in my door
Dragging me outside bare assed
Shaming me..cursing and belittling me, forcing me closer and closer to this grave that I am fighting to escape from.
Eyes looking at me and judging me
Attempting to cripple me
And force my hand to commit the ultimate sin
Friend enemies smiling in my face yet praying for me to fail
Deviants shaking my hand...

Attempting to cripple me

Friend enemies smiling in my face yet praying for me to fail

Closed Chapter
I knew nothing about a broken heart until I met you
The unnatural feel of rolling over and no longer finding you here haunts me to my core.
Its scary to know that the one that you once loved no longer wants you apart of their world anymore
Asking myself what, how and why did this come about?
As I repeatedly watched us fall apart on repeat in my mind
For a while I thought that maybe if I were to pick up more pieces I could repair the broken
I guess being foolish was my charm..and also my flaw
I did it all, yet found that doing it all only ends with heartache...

Smith & Wesson
I watched you change right before my eyes,
morph into a loveless being that I could not revive
There was no amount of love that could melt the coldness that had formed around your heart
No light strong enough to destroy the darkness inside your world.
You had become a stranger inside of my home.
If love were a blind man, than the blind man I would have chosen to be
My heart breaks as I try my best to love you, yet protect myself from the evil that you have chosen to be
The love of my life was supposed to be my everything
The happiness that was...

Him
All I can remember is hearing him screaming to put the gun down. For the first time I was no longer being seen as the “quiet” one, or the "jokester". In my mind I was telling myself to calm down, that it was okay to let go. But my soul was telling me to kill this man. I seen the fear in his eyes, for the first time I was not going to let this man get up. We had been fighting all day…and still I do not know what the argument was all about.
All I can remember is waking up on the floor, with the worse headache. Body aching and the sound of his voice in the other room.
I felt as...

Me, Somebody
I thought that I had reached the end
Slammed into that unbreakable wall and had nothing more to say.
Maybe it was the depression that got to me
That final I love you that never ever came into fruition
The love that I wish that I could shower myself with each and everyday..
I sat Indian crossed in the middle of a rundown house
Polluted my lungs with dust mites, mold, and cobwebs..
Gazing at myself with this razor at my wrist
Wanting to end it all
You never know how alone you are until you have finally been alone
When there are no more needles...

Silence
I search for you everywhere
From old faces to new faces…yet I still cannot find you
Deep inside I know that we may never cross paths again
Maybe this is the reason why I cannot stop looking
Is this just my fear of forgetting you?
I play the scenes over and over again
Call out your name in my head as though you will respond to me
Yet the silence just continue to become stronger
The emptiness never disappear
What am I to do?
I look into the mirror and see your face
...

Dear Aquarius
Did you know that my heart flutters and flies off whenever you are near?
Can you see it?
Into the sky it goes
Words cannot describe the feeling that I get whenever you are too far away
I cry...
My tears flow like the Erie river
Washing my heart far, far away from my shell
Please come back to me…
I have prayed many nights for a love like this
Dug my hands and knees into the ground and watered the earth with salty tears
Fed my heartbreaks to the sky while cursing myself to bittersweet moments
That I can only wish…had never...

Butterfly
So many sacrifices and dried tears
Ground littered with dreams of what I used to assume was happiness
Dark clouds drifting over me repeating every promise that you made to me
This heart that you once thought was so easy to break; is so much stronger than you could have ever imagined
I was your causality,
A victim of your lies
The fool that played your game the best way that I could play it
Yet found myself lost in the middle of despair without a paddle to row myself back to land
These lies…
The false hopes and dreams that attracted me to you are...
