POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write whatever happens to come to my mind. Whether good or bad, I love to write and share it with others.
The Dark Corner Of The Mind
I am mad
You are mad
We're all mad here
In this wonderland
Of dreams or fears
Everything is real
In this twisted fantasy
Pick your reality wisely
Is this all strange to you?
But it's always in the pits
Of your mind (if you have it still)
You can't deny where you are
Welcome to Wonderland
You are mad
We're all mad here
In this wonderland
Of dreams or fears
Everything is real
In this twisted fantasy
Pick your reality wisely
Is this all strange to you?
But it's always in the pits
Of your mind (if you have it still)
You can't deny where you are
Welcome to Wonderland

Envy
It must be a nice thing
To wake up,
Be able to get out of bed,
Not feel too disgusting to eat
If you have anything to eat
And be able to see yourself
Without feeling like you
Want to take a knife
And cut off any fat you see
It must be a nice thing
Not to wonder if this will be
The day you finally kill yourself
"In the eyes of a homeless person,
I'd be considered a rich person"
I pathetically mumble to myself
In a pitiful attempt to make me smile
It brings more gratfulness to me
But never a smile..
There must...

You Are Loved
Don't give up
Don't make that first cut or burn
Push that suicidal thought out of mind
You are not alone
You are not worthless
You don't deserve to hurt or suffer
Don't punish yourself for being human
We were put here to feel joy
Find happiness, purpose
To feel love and give love
Nowadays in this world
It's so easy to become hateful
Spiteful, bitter, angry, cynical, doubtful
Become different from that
Show the world that change is possible
You are loved
Don't make that first cut or burn
Push that suicidal thought out of mind
You are not alone
You are not worthless
You don't deserve to hurt or suffer
Don't punish yourself for being human
We were put here to feel joy
Find happiness, purpose
To feel love and give love
Nowadays in this world
It's so easy to become hateful
Spiteful, bitter, angry, cynical, doubtful
Become different from that
Show the world that change is possible
You are loved

Butterfly
Life is like a delicate butterfly gently passing by
And like life itself, flies away quickly
Sometimes, all too quickly
But the joy, beauty, love, and laughter they brought
Will always be with us in our hearts
So they're never truly gone
Even if we can't see them
They'll forever be with us
In our hearts, memories, and thoughts
Love is eternal and will never die
And like life itself, flies away quickly
Sometimes, all too quickly
But the joy, beauty, love, and laughter they brought
Will always be with us in our hearts
So they're never truly gone
Even if we can't see them
They'll forever be with us
In our hearts, memories, and thoughts
Love is eternal and will never die

Honesty
No more lies hidden in a smile
I can't wear the mask anymore
Who I am inside
I'm not quite sure
I've buried her for so long
She's now forgotten
But her bitterness and rage live on
And now I'm here to carry out
Her revenge
If what you say is true
You loved her for who she was
Then why did you keep trying
To shove those pills down her throat
To change her?
Why did you call her beautiful
When you'd make her feel hideous?
It wouldn't be wise to continue your lies
Why do you still spit on her
After she's been dead all these...

Disappearing
The silence outside of me
Is the music inside of me
Darkness consumes my body
And the dimming light gives up
My heart erodes
As it caves in
I'm drowning from the years
My memories choke me
I won't accept any of my tears
I think of the things that could've been
But it'll never be so I keep the tears within
The silence outside of me
Is the music inside of me
I smile so you don't see it
The pain that lies dormant in my heart
I'm being destroyed
I'm hurting
I'm dying
I'm falling apart
And the real murderer of me is myself
Is the music inside of me
Darkness consumes my body
And the dimming light gives up
My heart erodes
As it caves in
I'm drowning from the years
My memories choke me
I won't accept any of my tears
I think of the things that could've been
But it'll never be so I keep the tears within
The silence outside of me
Is the music inside of me
I smile so you don't see it
The pain that lies dormant in my heart
I'm being destroyed
I'm hurting
I'm dying
I'm falling apart
And the real murderer of me is myself

I Rather Not Know
I'm always being watched by a familiar group
I must be a good birdie like they want me to be
They have stripped me of my feathers
Ever since I was a hatchling
There's no choice but to comply
Behave, obey, never speak, and stay asleep
Staying asleep..
The only whisper I couldn't follow
I had to wake up
I had to know the truth
But now I know why they kept me asleep
Why didn't I just listen?
Give back the illusions and ignorance I once had
Feed me anything but the truth...

Underneath The Shell
Why are you laughing?
Why are you just staring at me?
Piece me back together, please
Do you think I wanted to be this way?
So grotesque and hollow..
You are the filthy one I hate
Yet the saint I plead mercy from
Make me whole again
Let me bathe in the slick muck of your world
I want to know the rotten power
You have used to break my shell
So you can see the monster you created within it
Why are you just staring at me?
Piece me back together, please
Do you think I wanted to be this way?
So grotesque and hollow..
You are the filthy one I hate
Yet the saint I plead mercy from
Make me whole again
Let me bathe in the slick muck of your world
I want to know the rotten power
You have used to break my shell
So you can see the monster you created within it

Stuck in the Underground
Which way is up
Who is this positive
They tell me to think of
I think they just made him up
A false person they put hope in
Why do they lie to themselves
Do they not hate it
When someone lies to them
Why, then, do they lie
To themselves
That's sad
Much more sad than those
Stuck in the underground
Daily being buried under the negativity
Those up there laugh at us
Or lecture us about this positivity person
That all we need is to think of him
And we'll be set free
But what they really mean
Is that you...

To Be Human
Why make fun of me
Just because my body's different?
Why make fun of me
Just because I don't have much?
Why make fun of me
Just because my clothes aren't as nice?
Why do you make fun of me at all?
We both have blood in our veins
Though mine may be slower, we both have brains
And you can't deny we breathe the same air
Our differences are what make us the same
We're both human
Just because my body's different?
Why make fun of me
Just because I don't have much?
Why make fun of me
Just because my clothes aren't as nice?
Why do you make fun of me at all?
We both have blood in our veins
Though mine may be slower, we both have brains
And you can't deny we breathe the same air
Our differences are what make us the same
We're both human

It
I am not childish
I am not friendly if you are nice
I do not write out of passion
I am not a girl
I am not human
I do not have emotions
I do not have thoughts
I do not laugh at corny jokes
I do not have an obssesion for music
I do not have dreams of seeing all the beauty Earth holds
I am not Paige
No, because I am fat, I am an 'it', not a person
I am not friendly if you are nice
I do not write out of passion
I am not a girl
I am not human
I do not have emotions
I do not have thoughts
I do not laugh at corny jokes
I do not have an obssesion for music
I do not have dreams of seeing all the beauty Earth holds
I am not Paige
No, because I am fat, I am an 'it', not a person

Control Freak of the Mind
Useless girl, I will make use of you
Just unwillingly sign over the rights to your mind
Let's start with disturbing thoughts
They will manifest even in sleep
You may get lack of rest as a result
But no worries, my dear
Soon, sleeping will be all you want
Even if the dreams are nightmares
You'll be glad you can wake from them
Unlike the living nightmare I'll be for you
Oh, what's this?
A pencil sharpener
I will show you another use for it
Say goodbye to short sleeved shirts
Even when the summer is hot
People will laugh...
