What A Dream Should Be
Of all the days I chose to go,
The rain made the river overflow,
Fishies swam around my toes,
As icy winds began to blow.
Unlucky though as it may seem,
Eyes wandered to fields of green,
The most ridiculous i've ever seen,
A scarecrow made of jellybeans.
A close look held a surprise,
As i peered into glistening eyes,
Golden like the crust of well-made pies,
Topaz jewels i could never buy.
Paving stones made of pillows,
Soft and bouncy near the willows,
Stiff and firm when the wind billows,
When picked up, weighed a...

'I disown you, Daddy.'
I saw you hitting mommy,
Strangling her against the wall,
You never thought that i'd remember,
Since i was only the height of a doll.
A few years later,
When a few inches came in,
Its like you were never home,
Now mommy had to take out the bin.
Almost a meter high,
And some strange men were at our door,
Demanding money from you,
At the time, i didn't know what for.
My friends' dads knew you well,
A drunk, gambler and a cheat,
Well known in a little town,
Embarrassed, i just stared at my little feet.
A whole...

(FRAGILE) Handle with care
Bitten once,
twice shy,
Broken twice,
Yet i still didn't cry.
Be strong said a little voice,
Deep inside my head,
But it was also why,
My little heart bled.
I believed in every single word,
That passed those lovely lips,
Like camouflaged darts they flew,
And blew me to bits.
Lies, lies and yet more lies,
Everyday was the same,
I acted like i knew nothing,
Of your 'business meetings' and your old flame.
Now and again you would say,
That you didn't know what i wanted from you,
That i drived you insane....

Lost
I see nothing,
but i feel warmth.
I feel it leaving me.
My fingers become cold to the touch.
My hair billowing out behind me.
The breath of Jack Frost down my neck.
The echo of silence fills my ears.
Its snowing, i can sense it landing,
On what used to be the windows of the soul.
The blinds were sealed shut,
Once upon a weary time.
Ever since, eternal winter had come.
Where was this place?
That sunlight never touched.
The place where everything dies.
Memory...
I remember nothing but ice.
The sound of...
but i feel warmth.
I feel it leaving me.
My fingers become cold to the touch.
My hair billowing out behind me.
The breath of Jack Frost down my neck.
The echo of silence fills my ears.

On what used to be the windows of the soul.

Secret
Like raindrops on harp strings,
The gentle lullaby plays,
It emits temporary bliss,
Yet brings me immense pain.
Sawing at my emotions,
Deep down inside,
Such lovely pure music,
Echoing against a ruined mind.
The projector starts up,
Showing images most foul,
Of things i regretted the most,
That sent my nightmares on a prowl.
Innocence lost,
From a naive little girl,
Who sought shelter from a monster,
And thought him a rare pearl.
A secret buried deep down,
Inside her soiled little heart,
Afraid that it...

Loved or Feared?
The treasures of a kingdom,
A love letter and a spear,
Which was better?
Love or fear?
Fear was always hiding,
Striking into hearts,
Yet afraid, herself,
Afraid of falling apart.
Her face was but a mask,
But demanding attention all the same,
Blackmail and threats,
You didn't even need to know her name.
Love was always there,
Waiting calm and patiently,
Giving strength to others,
A beacon of hope, so lovely.
Beautiful in every way,
She sought to shield and protect,
Greeting us with...

Premonition (Chapter 14)
When I woke up, sunlight was streaming through the window and I was cocooned in blankets. I was wrapped up so tightly that, all I could do was writhe around. Flourite's chair was empty and that person from my dreams was nowhere to be found. I surrendered face down into my pillow. Was I weak to the point of hallucinations? Or was it all another dream?...Both frustrated and confused, I forced myself to sit up. While doing so, the blankets tightened around my arms, almost crushing them. An old memory made its appearance just as I was beginning to unravel myself, or attempting to anyway. My...

Different
Sometimes we are born different,
Although it wasn't our fate to choose,
Something we could never control,
Yet our name is what society chews.
We were just born,
That was all,
But we were left behind,
They ignored our cries and calls.
My message to these people,
Whose soul suffers like no other,
Know that you were made for a reason,
Not a failure, disappointment or a bother.
Sometimes we can't do things,
Normal people can,
However, we can do things,
Normal people can't.
We are not disabled,
Just able to do...

Pressed Flowers
He will love me,
He will love me not,
It was so long ago,
That i almost forgot.
The days we spent,
By the great lake,
Making pinky promises,
We thought could never break.
Cooking together,
At our hated summer camp,
Sabotaging each others food,
But blaming it on the cat.
He loves me,
He loves me not,
You were cute back then,
Even when you had chicken pox.
Sneaking out at night,
To lie under the stars,
A long awaited confession,
Ruined by headlights from dad's car.

Dark Creatures
Monsters but not monsters,
Who was to blame?
For transforming such pure souls,
As if their lives were a game.
They taunt and they mock you,
Bitter laughter echoes in my ears,
Torture your very heart and soul,
Till it brings you to tears.
They won't stop till they make you believe,
That you are worth nothing, that theres nothing you'll ever achieve.
Body, soul and mind,
Wounded and bleeding,
They grin widely in glee,
As they notice your shallow breathing.
Spirits feed on anger,

David
You were beautiful,
You were smart,
Future blindingly bright,
But then you began to fall apart.
You had the world at your feet,
A celebrity at your school,
But then you started ditching classes,
And became the class fool.
Summoned by the principle,
More than once or twice,
Detentions and suspensions,
For getting into stupid fights.
That respectable image,
You worked so hard to build,
Went up in flames,
When you started taking drugs and pills.
Disowned out of shame,
You moved out into the streets,...

Snow
Beautiful and so elegant,
These crafts of Jack Frost,
Whom never ceases to amaze,
We gaze in wonder, but to what cost?
Outstretched were her bare arms,
Her breath shrouding her in mist,
Lost in this winter wonderland,
A delusional girl makes her wish.
Trails of blood and sleet and snow,
Was what she left behind,
A frozen smile plays on her chapped lips,
Amongst the snow is where she would die.
They settle in her disheveled hair,
Snowflakes on her ghostly pale skin,
Turning her legs almost blue,
Yet she...
