POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am a perfect example of an old soul. Writing helps me be more sane. I am a lover of art, music and history.
HE
The story that I am about to start,
Tells a tale of a coal black heart,
Non-existing whispers were the first sign,
Sending cold air down my spine,
At night it was hard to breathe,
I felt his presence lying beneath,
His name whispered in my ear,
My body was overcome with fear,
His cold breath fell upon my skin,
The darkness was consuming me from within,
He entered my body and took control,
At that moment he devoured my soul,
With a touch he turned my heart black,
Taking any life I had to fight back,
Placing a gun against my...

For
For all the times I hated myself,
For all the lies that came out of your mouth,
For all the pain I ever felt,
For all the punches below the belt,
For all the times I had to fight,
For all the tears I cried at night,
For all the scars I inserted,
For all the secrets you blurted,
For all the times I took your part,
For all the times you broke my heart,
For all the times we were involved,
For all the problems unresolved,
For all the wounds that never healed,
For all the parts of me you killed,
For all this time I lived in the...

OVER
There was no sun,
no good to see,
nowhere to run,
it's only you and me,
I once had a beating heart,
hope stronger than ever,
never thought I would fall apart,
the feeling does not last forever,
he took it out of my chest,
with my last breath,
I forgot the rest,
nothing left,
the words were not enough,
it was not serious,
I was not tough,
I was being delirious,
he never cared about the stuff after sex,
I was not worth the title,
he used me as a reflex,
so I pulled out the rifle,
closed my eyes as he begged for...

AFTER DARK
I walk the streets as they shine with reflection of the moon,
I am not alone,
there is a lady of the night,
Lost within herself trying to find affection in sex,
Her heart was broken to many times,
Cuts on her wrist she covers with bangles,
The hate she has in her she fights with short skirts and see through tops,
No need to sell for money but so called love,
When they push harder she holds closer,
To them she is a one night stand,
To her they are that moment of love,
They walk out leaving money and bruises,
The money she hides under a bear her...

KILLING MYSELF
I have a fear of sleeping,
Closing my eyes to re-live every moment,
My mind shuts out reality,
No one can protect me of what I see,
I am bind by ropes,
His hands around my neck,
I can hear him breathing,
His presence is cold,
I try to cut myself free,
Screaming for someone to hear me,
No one seems to notice,
Maybe because there was no one who cared?
I wake up in tears,
My wrists cut,
A fear within myself,
All to be just bad memories,
He was gone,
I found that I was killing myself.

I'LL BE WAITING...
If I should die soon,
I would be that light shining from the moon,
Of course I will miss everyone I love,
But I will watch over you from above,
Please don't be sad or blue,
I will be up here with God waiting for you,
All our memories made me go with a smile,
It will hurt, but only for a while,
You made me strong in many ways,
Brought a smile to my face on sad days,
Remember that my love for you will never die,
But for now we have to say goodbye.

THAT'S NOT ME
I live my life harder than you can imagine,
Fighting my demons everyday,
You see fat and disgust,
I see a person who could not run away,
You don't talk to me or look my way,
Did you know I cut the pain away?
You don't even know my name,
I am not the one to blame,
For I am a survivor of sexual abuse,
You had nothing to lose,
Your words hit my heart,
Little by little I am falling apart,
I cry all the time,
I write poems that rhyme,
You see my body which makes you sick,
But you are just a dick,
Everything on the...

WALKING BY
The feelings came back like they never disappeared,
words were written on the paper that was once cleared,
memories passed through my head,
the moments I spend,
crying over you every night,
not being able to sleep without a light,
spending hours writing about getting over you,
but not one word was true,
we had our moments that made me smile,
of course that only last for a while,
you look the same only happy,
I guess life is better without me,
in only a few minutes I felt all of this,
wondering if there is any part of me you miss,
I could...

SORRY
I WISH WE COULD BE OKAY,
I WISH THIS COULD ALL GO AWAY,
YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME,
ALL I WANT IS FOR YOU TO BE HAPPY,
YOUR SMILE, YOUR KISS AND YOUR EYES,
WHEN I SAID THAT I LOVED YOU IT WERENT LIES,
I THINK OF YOU ALL THE TIME,
WISH YOU WERE STILL MINE,
BUT I HAD TO GO,
FOR REASONS ITS BEST NOT TO KNOW,
YOU WILL FOREVER STAY IN MY HEART,
EVEN IF WE ARE MILES AND MILES APART,
IT'S TIME TO LET YOU GO,
ALL I WANT IS FOR YOU TO KNOW,
ABOUT ME YOU DONT NEED TO WORRY,
JUST KNOW THAT I AM SO SORRY.

NOW HE IS GONE
His father did not care,
His mother was never there,
He tried to make something of himself,
But that was not enough,
He turned to drugs and alcohol,
To try and clean his broken soul,
All you did was break him down,
Now he is like a king without his crown,
He feels like no one cares,
But he is so unaware,
That I am still here,
I hope where ever he is that he has no fear,
He cried all these years but you ignored it,
sit,
And face what you have done,
He is no longer your son,
What you thought...

UNKNOWN
I MIGHT STAND OR I MIGHT FALL,
BUT I WILL NEVER GIVE UP NOT AT ALL,
I LAY ON THE GROUND STARING AT THE CEILING,
IN MY HEART THERE IS NO FEELING
I AM FALLING APART,
ALL OF THIS PAIN LAYS DEEP INSIDE MY HEART,
EVEN IF I AM ALL READY DOWN YOU WOULD HIT ME TO THE GROUND,
ONE DAY I WILL GET UP AND RUN AWAY NEVER TO BE FOUND,
AT NIGHT WHEN I THINK OF WHAT YOU HAVE DONE I QUIETLY GROAN,
NO ONE KNOWS HOW I FEEL I AM THE UNKNOWN.
BUT I WILL NEVER GIVE UP NOT AT ALL,

NO ONE KNOWS HOW I FEEL I AM THE UNKNOWN.

ANOTHER DAY
I feel like i have to take a knife and cut open my tummy so i can let free of all the butterflies,
All the feelings you have given me,
All the pain i want to be set free,
I feel like i have been buried alive to smother in the lies you fed me,
Giving false hope to be happy,
All my energy has faded away,
You give me no reason to stay,
I feel like my heart will no longer beat, for you have crushed it in your hand and gave it to the wind,
I gave you my soul,
and you did not care, not at all,
I feel like my words are...
