POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
AA Girl
A kind of girl I'd never thought I'd be
One to show her weakness and is sending for a sort of clarity
A girl who traded beer cans and bottles
for a second cup of caffeine
To live no more like a walking heartache
maybe the other side really is a brighter shade of green
But when you take away the booze and drugs
I am brought down to my knees
And I'm trying to find what I threw behind
But I'm terrified there's nothing left inside of me
One to show her weakness and is sending for a sort of clarity
A girl who traded beer cans and bottles
for a second cup of caffeine
To live no more like a walking heartache
maybe the other side really is a brighter shade of green
But when you take away the booze and drugs
I am brought down to my knees
And I'm trying to find what I threw behind
But I'm terrified there's nothing left inside of me

Forest Fires
The devil knows no name or age
No, the devil doesn't care
He is like a lover that likes to leave right after
In the middle of the night
He'll make you fall in love
Leaving you in indented sheets
Craving for more once the sun rises
He's sneaky that way
The way he flows through your veins like a river
Or creeps into your lungs like a forest fire
So pretty and ruinous
The devil likes to prey on the heartbroken
He makes the fire seem beautiful
When it is overtaking everything in it's path
And makes the rivers...
No, the devil doesn't care
He is like a lover that likes to leave right after
In the middle of the night
He'll make you fall in love
Leaving you in indented sheets
Craving for more once the sun rises
He's sneaky that way
The way he flows through your veins like a river
Or creeps into your lungs like a forest fire
So pretty and ruinous
The devil likes to prey on the heartbroken
He makes the fire seem beautiful
When it is overtaking everything in it's path
And makes the rivers...
