POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I don't have one style. Sometimes my poems rhyme, sometimes they have alliteration or just a simple rythm or none of the above. I like writing relatable poems.
Death...
A body
Some shovelling
Stones turn
They rearrange
Useless as they are
Pointless as tears
I breath
Dead people don't
Anger is all I have left
Sad stories can't touch me
Love is hate
I hate sad people
Flowers as red as blood
Emptiness had put the knife in my hand, not me
Some shovelling
Stones turn
They rearrange
Useless as they are
Pointless as tears
I breath
Dead people don't
Anger is all I have left
Sad stories can't touch me
Love is hate
I hate sad people
Flowers as red as blood
Emptiness had put the knife in my hand, not me

Can we burn the rules?
The rules that keep us tied to fear
Those unwritten rules
Why are they even here?
They don't care about you
They don't know joy
They don't know beauty
If we could just be true
to the countless shining stars
and the reflection of the water
To the music and pain
our power that we have forgotten
Just let the flowers and trees be
Let's dance in the streets
and when we're free
We'll raise a glass
to never getting boring or tired
To getting what we've desired
A new...

Enigma
I understand everyone
Or at least I know how they think
But you are different
I can't follow your thoughts
They're a strange mix of ration and emotion, that I can't figure out
They seem so irrational
You change your mind even before you made it up
You tell a story before it happened
You feel self-pity for being the center of your own universe
It doesn't make sense
It doesn't matter
Because it all has to be about your opinion
The way you look at it is right even if it changes, even if you change
So you never do

So you never do

A fire
I knew it!
I was right!
I saw something behind those eyes
Something that burns and shines
I can always tell
I see it when you tell a story, when you write, when you laugh
A certain passion, a certain dream
Maybe this time will be different
Maybe this one won't run from dramatic, passionate, poetic me
That look when you tune out
When your world opens
If you could just let me in
I could show you my fire
the playground of my mind
Where we could tell stories side by side
I was right!

Sad song
You look right through me
Only to discover I'm empty
Nothing there for you to see
A few notes not a symphony
Nothing special
Nothing bright
While they dance in the light
On the bench watching them smile
Haven't been happy in a while
Your cheers are worthless
Though they come from kindness
I need more than you can give
I realise that
But you can't force love
So all of your words fall flat
Only to discover I'm empty
Nothing there for you to see
A few notes not a symphony
Nothing special
Nothing bright
While they dance in the light
On the bench watching them smile
Haven't been happy in a while
Your cheers are worthless
Though they come from kindness
I need more than you can give
I realise that
But you can't force love
So all of your words fall flat
