POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I don't write a lot. If I feel something strong enough, you'll eventually read it.
It's Not Fair
I lay here listening to my love songs,
Crying my eyes out wishing she'd come along.
Take away the pain.
Why does nobody care?
It's not fair.
I want to feel that intimacy rare,
With someone who makes my heart flutter,
And my knees rubber.
And my palms sweaty.
Because I think I'm ready
To be touched inside
By an angel that resides
In my world-
that girl.
Who thinks of me everyday,
And comes over just to play.
Long walks at dusk,
Only to sneak out for a midnight rush.
I can almost smell her hair.
It's not fair.
She...
Crying my eyes out wishing she'd come along.
Take away the pain.
Why does nobody care?
It's not fair.
I want to feel that intimacy rare,
With someone who makes my heart flutter,
And my knees rubber.
And my palms sweaty.
Because I think I'm ready
To be touched inside
By an angel that resides
In my world-
that girl.
Who thinks of me everyday,
And comes over just to play.
Long walks at dusk,
Only to sneak out for a midnight rush.
I can almost smell her hair.
It's not fair.

I Need You
It's a strong aching yearn.
The passion you instilled-
It still burns.
I'm weak, sensitive, broken.
It's far too easy to have my heart stolen.
Chewed.
Crushed.
Handed back.
And you can laugh in my face for what I lack.
But that isn't you.
You're better than that.
This is where I failed to dispute the fact,
That I'd let you down,
And force you away.
Then wish you back, the very next day.
And inside it's warm,
Because I think of you.
But the problem is I'm empty too.
And the tears flow two at a time, ...

Sleep
I have to take deep breaths,
But you take each of them away.
The rise and fall of your breasts,
Makes me feel at ease.
As we lay here and hope the other never leaves.
But I'm not going tonight,
And you aren't letting go,
As I gently bite your neck,
And playfully kiss your nose.
We kick each other back and forth,
Just a little dance, or little game.
I nuzzle your cheek and gently say your name.
Holding you tight, I rubbed your back.
I lean back and take a look at your rack,
You giggle, you're a little shy,
But baby I promise you have...
But you take each of them away.

Makes me feel at ease.

My Light
My light shimmers bright,
My light pierces the night.
My light fills me with joy,
And tells me I'm not just another boy.
My light is as golden as her pure heart,
My light is really sweet,
Even when she's being tart.
My light loves me,
And I love her back.
I know when I falter,
She'll pick up the slack.
Because my light is strong,
And won't go out in any storm.
But my light is gentle,
With a touch both firm, and tender.
My light is beautiful,
And I won't look away,
On...

Fulfillment
She makes me happy,
She makes me worry,
She makes my day,
She makes me lose sleep,
She makes my heart flutter,
She makes me afraid,
She makes me smile,
She makes me cry,
She makes me wish,
For the good and the bad.
But most of all,
It makes me sad.
That I can't hold her, or feel her touch,
And when I lay in my bed in the middle of the night,
And my lips bleed because I bite,
And I'm squeezing my pillow too tight,
I'm thinking of you, and what we may never have,
Of how unfair it is that we may never cross paths.
And yeah,...

My Alphabet
Always thinking of her.
Being there no matter what.
Caring about everything in her life, it's not all about you.
Dropping everything for her, right then, right there.
Emotional support is a must.
Find out what makes her tick.
Going out of your way, to let her have her's.
Happiness is a two-way street, remember that.
If it's not love, it's okay, true affection takes awhile.
Jealousy can be healthy if you don't over do it, so don't.
Kiss her like you love her, not like you want to eat her face.
Lust and love are two different things; if you get horny...

Iblis Pearl
I step on the platform, transported to a distant world.
My shadow counter awaits, telling me we must fight for the Iblis Pearl.
Battling foes from across the globe,
For the power that this precious orb holds.
We work our way past many trials.
We trek and fly for many miles,
No one we face can conquer our power.
It's about time for the final hour,
Of the villain who holds my ultimate prize.
But my shadow counter was an enemy in disguise.
He turns on me and rounds a kick.
I should have known he lied to me, the dick.
I leap in the air...

I no like you
I can't fix what's broken.
Can't find what's lost.
Can't take back what's been spoken.
Everyone's my boss.
I'm the underdog, cast aside.
Everyone goes places in life.
NO! I'm not writing another poem about me!
This is about those insects under my feet.
I'll crush you all, you cockroaches.
And as you hear my footsteps approaching,
You'll run and hide in the cracks in the walls.
Scurry over the tile 'til my boot falls,
And splatters your little bug guts on the floor.
And I'll make your family eat it, then they'll beg for more. ...

Lies
Left alone in this dark room again,
The single bulb swings from the ceiling, suspended by a single cord.
I'm all alone again- in this empty, dark room.
I'm crying in the corner of this empty, dark room.
But I'm not truly alone. It's a struggle.
With myself,
And I'm losing.
This pain is inside.
It makes me feel empty.
Hollow.
These tears pool around me.
I'm drowning in them.
Tears of sadness, bitterness, anger, hatred
For whom? Me? No, I don't even deserve my own pity.
I'm lost.
I know I have a heart-...

60 Seconds In The Bad Part Of Town
Second 1: He throws her to the ground. I ball up my fists. It's my sister, he's a bully.
Second 2: I'm running towards him, he hears me approach and turns around. His hand moves for his pocket.
Second 3: I'm on top of him. He's scuffling under me. I knock the knife away and it skids under a parked car.
Second 5: A hard sock to the face. Instant black eye.
Second 6: He begins unleashing a flurry of punches on me.
Second 8: My sister gets up, rushes in our direction.
Second 10: I break away.
Second 11: I tell my sister to get away
Second 12: I hear a shot. I turn...
