POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Human
Human,
Human and broken,
Broken and beaten,
Beaten and tired,
Tired and worn,
Worn and alone,
Alone and forgotten,
Forgotten himself,
Himself as a Human,
Human.
Human and broken,
Broken and beaten,
Beaten and tired,
Tired and worn,
Worn and alone,
Alone and forgotten,
Forgotten himself,
Himself as a Human,

My Soldier Man
How does one show feelings,
without hurting the one they love.
How does one show emotion,
when push comes to shove.
If I as a human feel I am a zero,
how will I prove you will always be my hero.
You don't have to leave,
but I won't make you stay.
And if you choose to go,
I won't stand in your way.
I will be here waiting,
With your family and friends.
For your return home,
To a place where the love never ends.
I will be yours forever,
there is no doubt in my mind.
We are always together,
Two hearts combined.
I will love...
without hurting the one they love.
How does one show emotion,
when push comes to shove.
If I as a human feel I am a zero,
how will I prove you will always be my hero.
You don't have to leave,
but I won't make you stay.
And if you choose to go,
I won't stand in your way.
I will be here waiting,
With your family and friends.
For your return home,
To a place where the love never ends.
I will be yours forever,
there is no doubt in my mind.
We are always together,
Two hearts combined.
I will love...

Because I believed
That moment in your life,
where you have to step back and look at everything.
Things you've given up,
things you passed by,
things you didn't even think of.
Because when you take that step back you realize that none of it matters. You have been brought up believing
Believing in happily ever after, true love, and dreams coming true.
But you have been brought down time after time again.
Your heart, beaten, bruised, and shattered.
And you ask yourself, for what do I owe this burden too?
You wanna know why you are miserable, tired, and above all...
where you have to step back and look at everything.

To You
The world may never know
The pain that I do not show
It's constantly running through my veins
Like an unstoppable run away train
Although I'm trying with everything I got
I can't pretend to be someone I'm not
For you always said to me
Be the person you want to be
But that person has been taken away
The day you left, the day I went astray
I have tried to stay strong
But one can have strength for so long
The day has come, as I knew it would
I can't wait forever, I wish I could
But at some point I need to be free
To let my mind hide the...

The Truth Against Society
Skinner legs, and bigger breast, is all they want to see,
Tiny waists and thinner arms, the opposite of me.
The pressure to be perfect is slowly closing in,
An utter suffocation that doesn't seem to end.
Society is telling us beautiful is thin, and if I chose to starve myself perfections what I'll win.
Shoving a pill down my throat will get me what I want, bring me closer to that goal of a body I can flaunt.
Society is telling us beauty is a prize, measured in the size of our breasts, weight, and clothes size.
But let me tell you here and now no good will come of...

Change my Mind
Love is something undeniable
All the feelings indescribable
From my heart you are stealing
Now the floor feels like the ceiling
I look away, I don't know why
When you look me in the eye
My heart is beating louder, faster
As though it's hitting solid plaster
I know there is no chance for me
So let me go, leave me be
But as I turn to go away
You are there to make me stay
You pull me close
And as you do
You whisper something
I love you
All the feelings indescribable
From my heart you are stealing
Now the floor feels like the ceiling
I look away, I don't know why
When you look me in the eye
My heart is beating louder, faster
As though it's hitting solid plaster
I know there is no chance for me
So let me go, leave me be
But as I turn to go away
You are there to make me stay
You pull me close
And as you do
You whisper something
I love you

The Emo
From start to finish I wonder why,
The cuts look good in this messed up lie.
The blood that trickles down my arm,
People all stare at the girl who self-harms.
"The Emo" they call me,
I turn to my name.
They act out slicing my wrists,
I hang my head in shame.
I can't help my feelings,
Of being alone.
I hide myself for the day,
Just longing to go home.
I sprawl on my bed,
With razor in hand.
And take myself away,
To a much better land.
I stare in the mirror,
And let myself cry.
Looking forward to the day,
That...

Awakening to a life that is no more
I awaken
My body is still shaking
I am crying
I can't go on lying
Did he touch me
My reply would be no
But deep down inside
The pain hurts me so
Unable to tell
It will happen again
Keeping it locked inside
I feel the pain
Knock, knock upon the door
In walks the pain
Just close my eyes and ignore
Focus on the rain
I open my eyes to see the pain
Staring me in the eyes
This is wrong but he doesn't care
He won't realize
He gets up satisfied
And walks out
It will happen again
Without a doubt
Unable to...

Crimson Blood and Poison Tears
Rain, rain, go away,
Because of you the pain will stay.
Slit my throat, cut out my heart,
Leave me here, tear it apart.
Poison tears stream down my face,
My heart beats at a steady pace.
As I try to stand again,
Alone and standing in the rain.
I don't need you any more,
Is what I think while tears pour.
I hate you like I hate my life,
But love is what cuts like a knife.
Love is death, and death is you,
It's pain stains like a black tattoo.
Those memories come back again,
And bind me in the ropes of pain.
Crimson blood streams...
Because of you the pain will stay.
Slit my throat, cut out my heart,
Leave me here, tear it apart.
Poison tears stream down my face,
My heart beats at a steady pace.
As I try to stand again,
Alone and standing in the rain.
I don't need you any more,
Is what I think while tears pour.
I hate you like I hate my life,
But love is what cuts like a knife.
Love is death, and death is you,
It's pain stains like a black tattoo.

Forget Him
Forget his name,
Forget his face,
Forget his kiss,
His warm embrace.
Forget the love you once knew,
Remember he has someone new.
Forget him when they play our song,
Remember you cried all night long.
Forget how close you once were,
Remember he has chosen her.
Forget how you memorized his walk,
Forget how he use to talk.
Forget the things he use to say,
Remember he has go a away.
Forget his laugh,
Forget his grin,
Forget the dimple on his chin.
Forget the way he held you tight,
Remember he's with her tonight.
