POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write about love, heartache, and loss.
Sunshine
Sunshine
Come back to me
It’s so cold
So cold
So cold
It’s as if I’m not alive
I can see my breath
Hear his pulse in the stillness of the night
In the stillness
I can hear the teardrop screaming as it
Falls into oblivion
I look at him
His sleeping silhouette and I shiver
At the thought
Of his frozen kiss
His burning cold breath down my lungs
His stone cold grasp
I wish the sunlight would come
And melt him
...
Come back to me
It’s so cold
So cold
So cold
It’s as if I’m not alive
I can see my breath
Hear his pulse in the stillness of the night
In the stillness
I can hear the teardrop screaming as it
Falls into oblivion
I look at him
His sleeping silhouette and I shiver
At the thought
Of his frozen kiss
His burning cold breath down my lungs
His stone cold grasp
I wish the sunlight would come
And melt him

Sanity (Drove me Insane)
Sanity
Is what drove me insane
Trying to get you out,
Get you out of my brain
Trying to stop the pain
That I’ve lived with
Every single day
My whole life and you
Were the only thing that
Felt right in this
World of wrong
But everyone said that I
Was insane
But while trying to get sane
I drowned in the pain
Of losing you
And there was nothing that I
Could do. Sanity brought me
To my knees
Trying to find it
Made me bleed
When I lost you, I lost me.
But what should I do?
Should I pretend to be fine...
Is what drove me insane
Trying to get you out,
Get you out of my brain
Trying to stop the pain
That I’ve lived with
Every single day
My whole life and you
Were the only thing that
Felt right in this
World of wrong
But everyone said that I
Was insane
But while trying to get sane
I drowned in the pain
Of losing you
And there was nothing that I
Could do. Sanity brought me
To my knees
Trying to find it
Made me bleed
When I lost you, I lost me.
But what should I do?
Should I pretend to be fine...

No Oxygen
I can’t breath
Without him
It feels like I have
No oxygen
No oxygen
No air for me to breathe in
Only him
Only him
And when he’s gone
What does that leave me with?
The lies of yesterday
And the heartache of tomorrow
But for now there is no air
I’m drowning but
He doesn’t care
There’s nothing left of me because
There’s nothing left of him
And there’s
No oxygen
No oxygen
No air for me to breathe in
To deliver me from sin
Only him
Only and always him
And how...
Without him
It feels like I have
No oxygen

He doesn’t care
There’s nothing left of me because
There’s nothing left of him
And there’s
No oxygen

To deliver me from sin
Only him
Only and always him

Love (in all its true forms)
Love is one hell of an idea, I’ll admit
It’s so full of shit
Just like you, I’ll admit
Just so very full of shit
Love is not just an idea
It came true
It happened to me and you
It really came true
Love was made by those who hate
It was made for me and you
Even when I know I really do love you I guess
It was made for me and you
Love is just a word nothing more
It may kill me but it’s just a word
Death is only temporary
Just a word
Love is as perfect as you are
You, oh perfect you,
You led me like I was...
It’s so full of shit
Just like you, I’ll admit

It was made for me and you
Even when I know I really do love you I guess
It was made for me and you
Love is just a word nothing more
It may kill me but it’s just a word
Death is only temporary
Just a word
Love is as perfect as you are
You, oh perfect you,
You led me like I was...

Our Song
The world is over
My life is gone
It’s all wrong
It’s all so wrong
Without him beside me
Singing along
It’s so wrong
It’s just so wrong
That I knew all along
He was going to play me
But I let him break me
I finally know that
It’s all wrong
It’s all wrong
And yet I can’t stop
Singing our song
Singing our song
That he wrote for me
That kills me
I’m trapped in this tune
Oh, how it reminds me of you
Of you
And all that you do
I’m bleeding like a fool
I am so restless
Damn, I’m completely...

Hands (on an Impulse)
Hands
All over
Suffocating me with pleasure
Hands
Everywhere
Your perfect hands
All over imperfect me
Hands
On an
Impulse I let you
In to understand what
Makes me tick, which is your
Hands
Making
Me immortal
I love you and the sins your
Hands
Created
For the both of us
But now I guess it’s time that your
Hands
Stayed
Away from me
But I can barely live without you and your
Hands
Forming
Around me almost as
If I had nothing on for...

Without You
Your body
On mine
Intertwined
Interconnected as if
You love me as
You breath
I dream
Of you and me
Off in a better place
Holding hands as we scream
But, instead, here we are,
Just perfect you
On top of
Just me
You kiss my face
And then my neck
And the heavens explode
I hold you close
So you will never let me go
I hold you
Your body
Is heavy and solid
I almost feel like I can trust you
But I laugh the thought away
As you pull me on top of you
And I lay there
Feeling like I could live...
On mine
Intertwined
Interconnected as if

That Moment (I loved Him)
We were alone in his room and
He was telling me about his guitar,
And his drawings,
And how his life was hell,
And it was.
He was burning even more than the rest of us,
He was actually
Burning.
For me, the world had been ashes,
Everything slipping through my fingertips:
Empty promises, and my broken heart.
But he, he was actually burning,
Drugs in the family,
And a mom who didn't give a shit
So, he cuts.
And, I just want to make his hurt go away.
That's all I want to do.
As I kiss him gently,...

Nevermind
Nevermind
The lust, the pain
I've had to live with
every single day
It doesn't matter
Nothing matters
Nothing matters
Nothing except you
I love you
So much it kills me sometimes
But, nevermind
The lust, the pain
I've had to live with
Every single day
Because of you
Because of you
Roses aren't red
And violets aren't blue
And I cannot smile
Because of you
Because of you
But, never fucking mind
The lust, the pain
I've had to live with
Every single day
My heart is broken ...
The lust, the pain
I've had to live with
every single day
It doesn't matter
Nothing matters
Nothing matters
Nothing except you
I love you
So much it kills me sometimes
But, nevermind
The lust, the pain
I've had to live with
Every single day
Because of you
Because of you
Roses aren't red
And violets aren't blue
And I cannot smile
Because of you
Because of you

I've had to live with
Every single day
My heart is broken ...

the Locked Door
I’ll blow you
A single kiss in
The breeze to
Remind you of me
I’ll let down my armor
You can have me
Everything
You see is yours
For the taking but
You left me with scars
All over my heart
That you kept in a box
By the door that is locked
Let my blood pour like rain
I love you and
I love the pain
You give to me
Ever so willingly
I’ll still give you bread
And wine until you’re
Mine
Once again, no longer
Friends, ‘til the bitter end
With my world at your fingertips
And the black and blue love...
A single kiss in
The breeze to
Remind you of me
I’ll let down my armor
You can have me

By the door that is locked
Let my blood pour like rain
I love you and

And wine until you’re

Friends, ‘til the bitter end
With my world at your fingertips

Weren't Meant to be
Blow away the smoke and
Walk away
From it all
Barely breathing from
The smoke of
The ever-consuming fire
Ashes swirling like snow
You and I
Just you and I
Dust particles
Barely atoms floating
Nothing but love binds us together
In a world that falls apart
For it has to come to an end
For everyone else
But we
Were meant to be
It was the king’s final decree
As he
Fell from the throne
And chaos kissed the world
A fiery hello
And an ice-cold goodbye
But his heart froze over and
He forgot
The king’s...

Sometimes
Sometimes I wake up and
See the world as it really is.
Dead,
Just like the way you left me.
Sometimes I wake up and
See my heart as it really is.
Wasted,
Just the way you like it.
Sometimes I wake up and
See you as you really are.
Perfect,
Just the way you are.
Sometimes I wake up and
See nothing at all.
Nothing,
Which is what’s inside of me.
Sometimes I wake up and
See the light at the end of the
Tunnel;
Which leads straight to hell.
Sometimes I wake up and
Discover my once perfect...
See the world as it really is.
Dead,
Just like the way you left me.
Sometimes I wake up and
