POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm a novice poetry writer and I am trying to improve my writing.
I lie in the dark
A dark veil covering my world
Ink drowning my view
Black coating every corner
Seeping into every inch
In a damp corner I lie
You walk into my dark
Holding a candle
The tiny flame flickering
Illuminating the dark
Causing rippling dancing patterns
I inch closer to feel the heat
To feel the flame lick my skin
My movement causes a gust
That smothers the flame
The dark blanket drapes down
Somehow darker and colder
A small smoke trail slowly fades ...
Ink drowning my view
Black coating every corner
Seeping into every inch
In a damp corner I lie
You walk into my dark
Holding a candle
The tiny flame flickering
Illuminating the dark
Causing rippling dancing patterns
I inch closer to feel the heat
To feel the flame lick my skin
My movement causes a gust
That smothers the flame
The dark blanket drapes down
Somehow darker and colder
A small smoke trail slowly fades ...

Heart shaped pendant
Beginning
You were the first person to make me feel loved
You were my best friend
Finally I felt understood
Finally I felt love
You’d play with me
Flirt with the idea that you loved me
Caress my ego
You told me
I was your best friend
The funniest person you knew
The most beautiful
I was afraid of you
Because of how much I loved you
I was scared to lose you
When I found the courage to share my feelings
You told me you loved me as a friend
You told me I wasn’t your type

Galaxy Baby
Even your darkest corners
Light up my world
Soft finger tips on my skin
Tracing constellations
Your dreams leaving an invisible mark on me
I’ll absorb it all
Until you leave
Then I’ll replay your dreams
And pretend they were ours
Light up my world
Soft finger tips on my skin
Tracing constellations
Your dreams leaving an invisible mark on me
I’ll absorb it all
Until you leave
Then I’ll replay your dreams
And pretend they were ours

Immortality
When I was young
Me and my friend would play pretend
One game involved powers
My power would always be immortality
When I grew up
I lost myself
I lost my mortality
And I forgot my dreams
Today with a pen in my hand
And an ink trail on my pages
Finally, in this moment
It’s not a foolish child’s game
My mind is immortalized
Me and my friend would play pretend
One game involved powers
My power would always be immortality
When I grew up
I lost myself
I lost my mortality
And I forgot my dreams
Today with a pen in my hand
And an ink trail on my pages
Finally, in this moment
It’s not a foolish child’s game
My mind is immortalized

Speechless
With a bleeding heart
And a tear stained cheek
My voice falters
As I fail to speak
And a tear stained cheek
My voice falters
As I fail to speak

Soulless
I don’t have a soul
But for you, I’ll pretend
I’ll act for you
I’ll show you
A heart reaching performance
Because in that moment
When you’re staring at me
Like I have a soul
I forget
That I don’t
But for you, I’ll pretend
I’ll act for you
I’ll show you
A heart reaching performance
Because in that moment
When you’re staring at me
Like I have a soul
I forget
That I don’t
