What Happened To Prince Charming?
Isn't she meant to feel special?
Then why is he dragging her down?
He calls himself the devil.
Maybe he's onto something.
His words have a vicious sting.
Sharper than any of her blades.
She sees him for all he is.
Yet he can't even look her in the eyes.
Taught her whole life that a man would treat his perspective wife
Like she's the woman he's been searching for all his life.
Instead her prince is gone all night long
All while she's up listening to sad songs.
She desires his love and affection
But lately there's a lack of...

Meet My Monsters. *possible trigger warning*
Dark.
That is the only word that I can use to describe my mind.
Darkness with sudden bursts of blinding light.
Almost like fireworks going off in the vast night.
With those bursts of light comes the ability to see my monsters.
A hideous horde of my worst nightmares.
A gruesome monolith with grotesque beasts perched upon it.
Anxiety.
An ugly malnourished bird with one leg, sharp teeth, and hypnotic red eyes.
Sharing somewhat of a resemblance with a Dire Vulture.
Disgusting protruding legs and wings with talons at the ends.
With a...

Look What You've Done
I woke up to a nightmare.
My brothers and sisters in arms
They are afraid that they will be harmed.
My LGBT plus family?
They are seeing things that are terrifying.
My best friend who wears a hijab?
She feels as if she is being robbed.
Robbed of who she is.
You see, Mr. Trump, what you've done?
You've brought hatred and fear.
When all we want is to be here.
To be able to love.
To be able to celebrate who we are.
But you took that from us.
Now we don't know who we are.
Little children at school, being told by...

Just A Little Bit
Tell me again how it went?
You told me my presence was just convenient.
That I was just a way to kill time?
I'm sorry my life was a joke.
Now I'll sit and smoke.
Smoke away the memories.
Cause I know you'll never be sorry. I
'm not a special case.
Your lips are what I can still taste.
I saw it coming.
So I started running.
Thinking I could make it last a little longer.
But your discontent was stronger.
I couldn't make you love me longer
Brown hair and brown eyes.
I can't bare this goodbye.
Love shouldn't...

Big
You tell me I'm pretty.
Then call me a mess.
Why must you put me under such duress.
You say size doesn't matter.
But then go and tell the big girl that when she looks in the mirror it probably shatters.
You take a persons confidence
And tear it to shreds until there's nothing left.
Nothing but dread.
You them feel like they'd be better off dead.
Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes?
Then why focus on the curves?
Why pick on people with nerve?
Nerve to dress how they want and be who they want.
I am afraid to wear...

Different
We live in a world where people see your skin before they see your heart.
They judge you from the start.
They stereotype you.
And refuse to see what is true.
Little children getting hate because of who their parents choose to date.
People getting slammed for say, "THIS IS WHO I AM!"
Girls and boys
Making noise.
Saying this and that.
"Ew! I look fat!"
Instead of teaching hate we should learn to appreciate.
Appreciate that we're all different.
She has curves.
He has nerve.
She has more...

Goodbye Lover.
Smoke away the memories.
Drink away the pain.
He had kept her in check.
Now her life's a wreck.
She's high almost everyday.
Her depression leads the way.
She's lost sight of her goals.
She's sick of hearing people say, "You can do it."
It's gotten old.
She's all the time.
While he's glad she can't say, "You're mine."
He broke her in the worst possible way.
He stopped loving her but she still stayed.
His good nature made him do it.
He was too pure.
To hear the silent screams her heart made. ...

Fat Kid
She's scared.
Struggled with her weight her whole life.
Got called, "twinkie" on the playground because her belly was stuffed with sweets that were bad for you.
Told she was, "fat", "Big Mac", "Killer whale",
Kids said "Ahh! Don't eat me!" and laughed it off with their friends as if it was funny.
it was to them.
Her life was a joke.
Something they could have fun with.
She was always a little bit chubby.
Kids thought it was funny.
But would they think it was oh so hilarious,
that this girl...

Living With Depression
Living with depression is like a tidal wave of emotions.
There are days when you're happy.
Smiling with friends.
Then there are the days when you're sad.
Mad at the world and don't want to do a thing.
You see the mirror and you put a sheet over it so you can't see your reflection.
You hate yourself for things you can't control.
All of it gets old.
You get sick and tired of being alone but don't want to go do anything.
You just want to lie there and stare at the ceiling, Listen to sad songs, and think about where you went wrong.
Was it when he...

Is It Right? Is It Wrong?
Why does she try.
When in the end everything will just be another goodbye.
Heart clenching pain causes her to scream out into the night.
Makes her crave for the kiss of her blade.
The brightness of her smile fade.
She loves him so,
But doesn't know where their relationship could possibly go
when she's filled with so much woe.
So sick of hurting.
A year has past,
and here comes the tears.
The return of her despair.
She loves him but doesn't know how much more of their words she can take.
How many more smiles she can fake.
She...

I love you
Throughout our ups and downs,
I've grown to love you more.
I know not what the future has in store.
But I'm willing to ride out this storm of turmoil.
It is temporary.
Just know that I love you unconditionally.
You've opened my eyes to the fact that I am beautiful.
Your smile is radiant and contagious.
You bring out the courageous side of me.
The feel of your hair when I run my fingers through it.
For you, my love, I'd take a bullet.
Your brown eyes.
Remind me of the earth after the rain.
Wet and muddy.
Giving off a sense of...
