POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
I Got Ahead of Myself
My heart is hurting.
My soul is yearning.
All because of one person.
He's so damn charming
and i can't stop the wanting.
I wanna be the reason he wakes up in the morning.
but what he dreams about when he's snoring.
I want to be his always,
but all I get is maybe someday.
He can't let go of her.
The way I'm feeling is so absurd.
becuase she had him first and I'll never compare to the bond they'd shared.
For christ sake they have a baby!
Fuck.. I can't...

Suicide Note**trigger warning**
I don't know how many times I've written this,
I don't know how many times I tried to forget this.
Maybe I'll make a clean exit.
Not slit my throat and just be done with it.
I could take a handful of pain pills.
But they'd try to pump my stomach and my momma wouldn't be able to pay those bills.
I could time it all perfectly.
Make sure they're all working.
They'll think this is about them,
but it's not.
It's me.....
I was never meant to exist.
I was never meant to last this long.
I'm sorry you all...
I guess I'm...

Losing It
She's been struggling since she was young,
But it's never been enough.
Always lost her motivation,
Even tried to be innovative.
The weight never melted,
The scars have never faded.
She feels trapped in her own skin.
A prisoner to her genetics.
Her health is so fucking hectic.
20 years old and so fucking obese.
She can't even walk down the street without being shouted at.
Hooted and hollered at for being fat.
Can't you see she hates it enough?
She's fat,
that doesn't mean her skin is tough.
She's afraid...

Smile
Her smile is blinding.
So absolutely stunning that you wouldn't know inside she is slowly unwinding.
She's so good at acting,
She can smile all she wants
but her eyes speak the truth.
That day her smile wavers,
Will be the day no one can save her.
Don't say you miss her when you're the reason death kissed her

Love Lost
There's a pit in my stomach.
An ache in my heart.
and bullets lodged into mind.
All because I couldn't let go of a man who was never fully mine.
Take a moment and travel in time,
Go back to the day you stopped loving me.
Would you have tried harder?
Stayed a little longer?
Probably not.
but hey it was worth a shot.
A shot in the wrong direction.
Why couldn't you ever show me any affection?
I guess we never even had that connection.
I was blinded by that...

Let Go
Can you look her in the eyes,
and tell her what's true and not lies?
How could you be so damn heartless?
How could you be so selfish?
She doesn't trust easily.
Yet she let down her walls for you.
You took a step in,
Took a look around.
Saw her sitting on the ground reaching out to you.
You turned and ran
Making her look like a fool.
You promised her different and gave her the same.
Her hearts now broken and you're to blame.
She was always afraid of falling. ...

Isn't She Pathetic?
How can you look yourself in the mirror?
Knowing that because of you she can't stop the tears.
You let go so easily.
while so was holding on so steadily.
You were all she thought about,
All she could talk about.
You told her years and gave her weeks.
Gone for days,
She just wished you'd have stayed.
Never wanted to open up more.
Then you told her she's a bore.
She gave and she gave, until she was broke.
Now she's left crying,
Looking like a joke.

Him
He's no good at saying how he feels.
But I know what we have is real.
When I'm not even trying he's on my mind.
When I'm dreaming he's who I find.
He makes me laugh
Makes me cry,
But I can't lie
He's all I want and need.
He makes this crazy girls heart scream.
In love with his smile.
His grin.. It's made of sin.
Everyone says, "He's bad for you."
I look to him and know it's not true.
When he takes me in his arms,
My heart starts racing.
I'm crazy and at time too lazy.
I can be hard to love but he does it so...

A bit of f**kery
What do you see when you look at me?
Is it the dumb little girl you make me out to be?
Or the woman who falls a little fast and loves a little too hard?
Constantly criticized for her size.
"You'd be much more beautiful if you lost weight." or "You're so fat you'll never get a date."
She sees her razor as okay behavior.
Because the sting and blood are two constant things.
She's so addicted to the pain,
You'd call her insane.
Told, "You have no reason to feel the way you do."
Then thinks, "You don't realize what I've gone through."

Hurricane
Why are you trying to fix me?
Can't you just leave me be?
I'm nothing but a burden.
Someone that needs to take a look back at what she's done.
I've caused a storm more violent then a hurricane.
Making it rain,
I destroyed your life.
I don't deserve to be your wife.
Just take a knife and shove it in my guts
Let me bleed out then sew me shut
Stop trying to fix someone who can't be saved.
I know you're just trying to be brave
But I am not charity.
Know that I have clarity
In who I am and in who you are.
You try...
