POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write but noone knows. I write to say what I can't verbally express. This are just my feelings and emotions in the raw. I write about me, the real me.
Lost Boy
Among the shadows where the silence breathes,
A lost boy walks, torn like autumn leaves
With haunted eyes, echoes of pain
Looking for shelter down the pouring rain
Once a dreamer in a world so vile,
Now, a wanderer with nowhere to hide
He's endured the harm of many hearts unkind,
Yet his spirit wishes for a chance to rise
Through nights of darkness, inhaling your fear,
Crystal ghosts haunt you; I feel you near
Each scar a story, each tear a song,
In a world that feels so painfully wrong
Stolen...
A lost boy walks, torn like autumn leaves
With haunted eyes, echoes of pain
Looking for shelter down the pouring rain
Once a dreamer in a world so vile,
Now, a wanderer with nowhere to hide
He's endured the harm of many hearts unkind,
Yet his spirit wishes for a chance to rise
Through nights of darkness, inhaling your fear,
Crystal ghosts haunt you; I feel you near
Each scar a story, each tear a song,
In a world that feels so painfully wrong
Stolen...

1 + 1 = 3
When 1 + 1 equals 3
Your life is perfect, you believe
But when those 3 come down to 2
You start to wonder what to do
It was just me and my Baby Curd
She lived inside me and became my all
The love I carried for 6 months
In 10 minutes, she was gone
I'll never hold her in my arms
Or lullaby her late at night
I'll never get to soothe her cry
3 - 2 now equals 1
I will hold onto our sweet memories
And I will love you in every life we meet
Wherever you are, I'll always be here
3 - 1 - 1 is just me.

Demon #3
We said goodbye one night beneath the stars
We walked away towards different paths
I thought you'd become a face with no name
But there's no human way to erase all the pain
We left a promise hanging in the air
That was forgetting that we ever met,
We promised each other we'd no longer care
Leaving behind whatever we felt
One day you may see me and I won't be looking at you
We will not talk because there's nothing untold
I don't know what to say or do
So many nights I cried over you
I apologized and took the blame ...

Trapped in Life
My eyes are wide open but I just can't see
"Hold onto yourself" is my mind's only plea
I stare at the mirror and all I can see
Is a hollowed statue of who I used to be
I stretch my arms reaching out to the sky
Waiting for the wings that will show me how to fly
Maybe this time I will make it right
Hopefully soon I'll enjoy the ride
I've been waiting all this years to be set free
This might be the moment that I always wished
I'm scared of waking up to find out it was a dream
I guess my only option is to take the risk

My Life in Suitcases
I wanted to see the world
I thought it would be cool
What I didn't think about
Is I hate being on the move
I jump into every plane,
With as much luggage as I can take
Knowing I may not take everything to the next stop
Some of my things will also get lost
Never fully unpack because I'll leave again
That has been my most recent complaint
Deciding what I'll leave behind
Because I can't take it all on this flight
I don't own a blanket, I don't own a place
I don't own a towel or a queen size bed
My favorite...

Closure
We used to be more, but we're better as less
We traded some laughs, and we both went through hell
It's been quite a while since we had parted ways
I'm glad after all I can call you my friend
Call it crazy, call it wild
I know it's hard to understand
Forget the tears, forget the fights
And cherish instead the smiles and good times
We speak to each other without saying a word
Yet I still can't laugh at most of your jokes
After all this time, you still know me so well
If you ever need me you know I'll be there

I Forsake You
He's sitting alone on his couch with a broken heart
While I'm getting drunk at a random bar
Numbing my thoughts with a drink in my hand
Wondering when is he going to call
He felt alone, who's there to blame?
If I slept in his arms from night to day
I felt alone, who's there to blame?
He drank his pain and shame away
We were the best when we were together,
But worlds apart, we should've known better
Like daggers stabbed all through my heart
That night he called to say goodbye
No more Prince Charming, this...

I know you're broken
But you have wounds that I can heal
I can see you're sad
And I would do anything to make you smile
Please, just turn off the car
Unfasten your seatbelt and hold me tight
Hear my cry, feel my sorrow in your hands
Touch my heart, you will see I'm as broken as you are
You call me, I don't take long to answer the phone
I can't say much, but your voice just drives me crazy
I hear you talk and my thoughts start spinning in slow motion
Then all I know is that my mind goes hazy
I look into your eyes and...

Rest in Peace, My Little One
To the eyes you will not open and the smile I'll never see, rest in peace.
To the hair I'll never braid and the name I never picked, my beloved baby, rest in peace.
To the steps you will not walk and the hand I will not hold, my little cheese curd, please rest in peace.
To the toys you will not play with and the songs I'll never sing, my precious treasure, rest in peace.
To the cry I will not soothe and the mouth I will not feed, my pretty princess, please rest in peace.

Surviving but Losing My Little One
I saw my reflection through the eyes of Death,
Dancing our way to the flames of hell
We locked our lips in a breathless kiss
Caught in a moment of silence and bliss
The pain was gone when I closed my eyes
Sensations became unmaterialized
Death let go of my hand and said it was not my time
But still stole the heartbeat of my little one.
Dancing our way to the flames of hell
We locked our lips in a breathless kiss
Caught in a moment of silence and bliss
The pain was gone when I closed my eyes
Sensations became unmaterialized
Death let go of my hand and said it was not my time
But still stole the heartbeat of my little one.
