POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am a poet and I must admit I be sniffing myself from time to time cause If I don't who else will :)
A note to myself
Sometimes as I stare into my past I feel as if time hasn't taken me through enough
I feel as if I have been asleep the whole time and just now in my life like I just woke from a dream that I have no idea what has happened.
And oddly everyone has moved on and I was somehow stuck on a sheet of ice frozen little statue all alone in Greenland
Nothing but icebergs around as company.
I don't feel complete. I have been on this earth long enough to know I don't want to die feeling this way but can't help but feel at times the end is closer than I would like to think.

Why hasn't it left me yet
Trial and Error
I want to forget
I can't
Your image
The grips from your hands on my hips
And those lips that grip my lips with yours
lips magnetically drawn to mine
I still feel the tug of them
It's been quite some time
Unleash the thought of your love thrusting through my fresh gates of innocence
Like it never existed
Why is this hard to let go of
Easy as breathing
I'm sure when you wake up it's least of your problems
fathoming over a love that never was
How can I want this much and the feeling isn't reciprocated equally...

He says ...
He says he love my stretch marks
I say I hate them
He says he loves my vampire teeth
I say stop lying
He says I miss you
I don't ever believe him
He says he loves my butt
I only see half of what he may see in this
He says I make him happy
I can only imagine how
He says I am the only one that he loves to speak to
Why?
He says he loves my voice
I say I sound like a man
He says he loves my skin tone
I say ...should I tan for discoloration
He says I am the love of his life
I ask how would you know...you have so much life to live...

"look within"
Today I felt a thought float in my consciousness
A cement thought
Can I express myself the way I did before.
It came to me so randomly.
I knew the day would come where I felt this feeling fear
A feeling that I relive with each breath I take
A role that has become natural.
Breathing in such a negative dominant emotion is exhausting my mind
Poisonous thoughts leak from my mouth and slowly stabs my dreams in the subconscious
Everything that felt so close to the surface feels like it's anchored to my rock bottoms
Like shackles that have been tied around my...

idk
I can see the non love in your eyes
The face that pouts waking to see mine in the morning light
And the non interest your body oozes to greet my disappointed stare back
I can see the lack of considerations you display daily
The pain on my face and your lack to cure it
But I suppose that's not one of your goals
To lift me up
Not to leave me alone and desperate holding my head low and pitted in fears
Why not instead caress my shoulders, form a smile and say something to encourage
Something unforgettable and something I will cherish
Can't hold out a hand...

I was just thinking...nothing...nothing at all
Take a sit and reflect
Gathering memories that leave traces of frowns
I can't help but take a sigh
Feeling the wind cross paths in the lap of my dress
I sit and sit only to reflect
On past thoughts that drop my happiness to piss poor lows
Only for several seconds once every hour that passes my lips purse into a smile
Nights when these moments are treasured most
Days where they almost feel obsolete.
A faded vision that is art without the paint
Crumpled up paper on the ground, this is how you remind me
of what you really were
Crowns of laugher...

After Thought pt 1
Leaving was never option by the way
But as the minutes move along I keep on wondering why do I stay ?
There is obviously no communication to keep this relationship thriving
Despite the fact that it's the very key to unlock the happiness that could exist
Should I go Should I stay
I question this daily
And when I question you I receive a Blank I love you
There was a time you shed tears and spoke with life of how you felt about me
Spoke to the angels in heaven about your joy of finding me
Now it's as if I am just a stranger you often wish to banish from your...

A look inside
When I look inside my mind it is a room painted from ceiling to bottom full of colors
Take it how you want it a curse or a blessing
My mind is in a time machine state
Traveling back to keep in mind of the lesson learned to contain
Infinite opportunities leading me closer to my dreams
Open my eyes , jumping the hurdles without setbacks
Wearing a cape and Keeping in mind to focus
No one knows of troubles I have seen
Walked In my shoes
Not that they would want to
Building my sand castle with steel walls
I own all rights to my dreams
No...

Pretty hurts I believe
She said pretty hurts
but for whatever reason I don't think the sea of girls heard her
While she stands mile high in her high heels
Lighting up the crowd with smiles
Flashing sequins, dangling earrings
Wanting for all their attention
Looking out at all that hold up her picture as if they are trophies
Waving their hands side to side singing her gospel
Living their lives as if it's all to please her.
Wearing their independence on their sleeves like it's the hottest fashion yet, wearing a ring of catering men as if they are our most sacred gifts
Charming...

Walk in Paradise
I walk in paradise
my eyes closed to what's to unfold
And I sing a tune of sweetness
And floss a image of grace
Child of autumn's turning point
And wrapped in the arms of venus
My conversation is unforgotten
Undeniably a person you'll want to contact
Feeling pity, never that
I know I can be the one you admire
And hold hands with
Cuddle all night
Giggles in the dark
Feather light pillow talk
I walk in paradise
my eyes closed to all that's to unfold
In a mold I stay in your heart
And you on mine like the soil to earth
I...

What's up ? You asked...
Today has all the potential in the world to be a great day
And yet I sit on this computer typing trying to keep my mind sane
I took a breathe of air stepped out on the balcony
only to come back in and plop right back down on this couch
Why did I did I do this?
Looking at a television show filling my goal to hear hot gossip
All while realizing my life is the business of knowing what others are doing
How can this be?
This whole time I could be out in the world contributing
Instead I am told to stay seated and just be
As much as I have looked among these...
