POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
As a somewhat newer poet, I will not say if I am a good writer or a bad writer because I leave that to the viewers to decide for themselves. Everyone has different opinions, obviously, so for me to critique myself would be pointless.
My Fantasy
Right now I'm laying in my bed
Holding onto a small blue owl from our beginning
When everything came and went so easily
When we were at our peak.
Right now I hAve everything you have ever given to me
In a bag on my desk and it's laughing at me
Haunting me with memories of summer and drives
Haunting me with date nights and long texts
Right now I can smell your cologne
Midnight from around December
Right when I first noticed us changing
When I never thought it would get this far
Right now I have goosebumps and black tears

A Different World- Korn
I dream of the past, so I can break through
The walls I have built inside
The thoughts I can't grasp
Transparency through
They're constantly fight and collide
I'd love to see a different world
A place where you can't find me
Feel me, kill me, my back's
Up against the wall
Your magic spell
Doesn't work anymore
Kill me, kill me, that's what
You've got to face, my friend (my friend)
This ain't the end (the end)
Why can't I relax and let it be true?
This world that I try to hide
It's kind of a mess
Too reckless for...

Yesterday, Tomorrow, Today.
Whispers heard in the darkness
Afraid of all surroundings
A subconscious puzzle
A figure by the creek
A man, he sees me.
Locking down my house
Fearing for the worst
Knife in hand, one AM
Counting the minutes in the shadows
This is what I feared
Zombies, vampires, ghosts
Could never compare to people outside these walls
A self absorbed population of scum
Music, I love it
Never using both headphones
Aware of present surroundings
Im waiting, just watching
I dare anyone to try.

Maddie.
Inspired by Slipknot's Iowa.
Calm down, I have you
Underneath the sheets
We can barely breathe
Calm down, I have you
You can't see me
I'll take your voice with me...dear.
This brings delight
Heavy breathing
Iced skin hits me
Licking blood off her lips
I can't stop myself...break
So long, decaying
Wasting away
Her hair between my fingers
Dead stare, submissive
I ripped out all her teeth
Tomorrow, repeating....love
She's mine. There is no taking this back
I explored inside...

Because of Me
Here we go again
I'm feeling like it's never gunna stop
Neither of us back down
Until one breaks and gives in
No hesitation, no holding back
Spitting endless opinions, feelings
Not caring of the effect on one another
But it's because of me, right?
I know there is thoughts unspoken
Partly relieved when the bullshit is over
But we can't let it be the last attack
Neither one of us are Jesus Christ
Outside, it's paradise, models when nothing is wrong
The key to my disaster
Verbal daggers flying
But it's because of me,...

A Walk In the Woods
I can't tell you what it feels like when he looks at me
I can try to make you imagine it. Butterflies, cotton balls, clouds in my lungs
A cold breeze in the dead of July
I can't tell you his smile paralyzes me
But I'll still try.
I'll start with this metaphor. Take the path that feels like something is watching you, stalking you, creeping up inside. I tried the dirty path that leads to the bad boy, the rebel, Mr. Wreckless, it's overrated. I had the skater, the stoner, I got burned, gave up on myself I blamed myself for what he made me how he shaped me how he gave up on...

Did I Say That?
So this is what it feels like
To feel so left behind
To show your feelings in the air
Only to be instantly turned away
And this is what it sounds like
Crying for so many nights after
Waiting for a sign
Any kind of sign
I don't want you to shun me
Clinging to a dream that will remain just that
Burning memories of you in my mind
that don't mean shit to you
So I asked myself, "Am I really that bad,
That you won't even come near me?"
At the tip of my tongue the answer was "Yes"
But, at the bottom of my...

Darker Days- Mushroomhead
Finish what you fold up, digest, lock away
Confiscate the sins to cleanse the brain
Six feet under, six feet down
There ain't no way they gone breaking me, taking me
Six feet under, six feet down
There ain't no way they gone breaking me, taking me down
When it happens everyday
When it happens everyday, everyday
Divisible by moments fed the human race
Pontious read the riot of your hate
We used to give the love but that was never enough
There ain't no way the gone breaking us, taking us
For a ride again, that as way back then...

This Angel Will Be My Death
We see each other every day
No words spoken
You're so much more than words can say
Sometimes you look at me
When I enter or walk away
I feel like it's an honor; to have to your attention
You wear this plain black hat and look so angry when I see you
Maybe that's a reflection of your personality
Your features cause me to long for your presence
I still can't speak to you, in fear of stupidity
We have similar intrests, yet no connection
The same soul in different bodies
I am still a peasant compared to your...

Shattered (part 3: Indy)
When I went out
With some of my friends Friday Night, I
Bought so much shit that
I ran out of money.
Now I realize I Shouldn’t
Do this but I bought more
Cigarettes. I hoped my mom
Would not be
Able to smell it since she smokes too. Here
I feel like I’m in my element.
Don’t think about it.
“How was school today honey?”
I looked up at my mother
And forced a smile to my lips. “It Was
Fine.” Or complete Hell.
If you want me to be honest.
I got kicked down the
Stairs before lunch.
“Did you do well on that...

I do not write about flowers
About the beauty in life
I do not write about happy things
For a reason.
Writing is how I and many other
Self proclaimed poets let out emotions
Let out our current feelings
Without judgment.
When someone tells me
"I have to tell someone if I feel
You are a danger to yourself or others"
I want to scream.
Who is inclined to tell me
How I should or should not feel
What I should and should not say
Don't be worried about me.

Will report...
