POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write poetry as a hobby and an emotional release. But I do really love it and hope to do something with my writing one day.
Shouldn't
You shouldn't tease a dog whose leash will break,
You shouldn't.
Yet I do.
You shouldn't tease your mind,
It only brings in pain.
Yet I do.
What's the lesson I'm not getting?
I know...
Don't do it. Don't start it.
Don't listen to that talk.
Just leave it alone.
It'll only hurt more.
I just didn't listen.
When in fact I should.
They said be careful.
You'll fall.
Damn, I fell so hard.
It's been said,
watch you step,
still I didn't listen.
I'd gladly fall again.
I wasn't prepared,
for the...

L.O.L
This is MY battle cry!
I'm screaming for all you've deprived me off.
This is MY battle cry!
Rebelling against you.
I'll scream it to ya,
stick it through ya.
Always here to remind you,
that this is why I fight!
Society can mock me,
Your rules can judge me.
But this is why I fight.
So go ahead.
Make fun,
Laugh and scorn.
Burn me with your words,
those labels.
We'll see who's holding the gun later.

Fallen
I've fallen through the looking glass,
Trapped in Wonder Land.
My heart is pounding,
my blood is pumping.
I've fallen through the looking glass.
With you.
Tweedle dee,
Twiddle dum,
Just take my hand you dope.
Some tea,
no please,
all I ask is you kiss me.
Forget that queen a shouting.
Come with me
To the wonders of Wonder Land.
Even the cat is smiling.
I'm just glad you fell through.
With me.
Trapped in Wonder Land.

Let's Do This
Let's stand up!
Scream and shout!
There's no way,
they can beat us down!
Let's stand up!
Move and dance!
It's our world,
they don't stand a chance!
All we know,
All our dreams,
All we are!
It's our turn now.
To change the beat.
Let's stand up!
Scream and shout!
It's our world now,
and you can't beat us down!
Scream and shout!
There's no way,
they can beat us down!

The Storm
I wish I could bleed,
but I'm to afraid to draw the knife.
Wish I could cry,
always screaming inside.
There's no way to stop it.
No way to calm the harsh winds.
Tearing me up,
ripping me apart.
There's no way to show it...
Longing eyes at the blade,
it calls with shiny tears.
No way to hold it,
no way to cut.
Longing eyes,
begging the world to let them cry.
And there's no way to stop it.
It takes all my strength just to hide it.
and pray the pain go away.
There's no way to show it.
Just lonely eyes,
and a storm...
but I'm to afraid to draw the knife.
Wish I could cry,
always screaming inside.
There's no way to stop it.

ripping me apart.

There's no way to show it.
Just lonely eyes,

Heights
Could I jump,
down the abyss,
Could I fly,
if given the reason to.
What will it take,
to move my soul.
And what would I do,
If it were you?
If given the reason to.
I'd jump,
I'd fly,
I'd reach and soar.
My heart will beat,
and I'll know no bounds
greater than now,
nor will I ever reach,
such heights again.

The Line
Laugh it up,
cry it out,
live life and breath.
Take a step,
take a leap.
Don't be weary,
please.
Hold my hand,
ready, set, go.
We'll see who's foot,
steps over first,
the forbidden line drawn in sand.
So weakly flicked away.
Then lets see,
how long we last.
Running hand in hand.
Laugh a lot,
cry and scream,
hold my hand and breath.
Calm down my one.
We chose this life.
All for you and me.
We crossed the line.
We loved a friend.
No longer can go back.
So run with me,
just let it be.
Till...
cry it out,
live life and breath.

Who Said Bye?
You gave up first,
now isn't that funny?
The irony in what just happened.
It makes me shake.
Anger,
Heartbreak,
Loneliness.
That's cruel.
Without a word.
You gave up.
How stupid am I?
To think we'd go all the way.
To at least say a final good bye.

Don't...
Don't look away,
don't take a breath,
don't say a word.
Be still.
Don't move your hand,
don't laugh or cry.
See that I'm still here.
Don't worry,
don't scream.
I haven't left you yet.
Here take my hand.
Hold on tight.
This will be our end.

Can't be Changed
Whats done cant be erased,
cant turn back,
can't be changed.
Just move on forward,
and live with the mark that you've made,
a tattoo on you're heart.
For nothing can change,
what you've done,
and nothing can erase,
the act you did.
There is no one who can help you hide,
this is what type of world which in we live.
So don't run.
Don't hide.
Let me see what you've done.
It wont be easy,
but you'll see.
You'll live.

The Labyrinth Pt. 2
I soon began to panic, no longer able to stay calm. My heart was thumping hard and fast against my ribs, beating so loud I'm sure the minotaur could hear us. Fear had gripped me and showed no signs of letting up.
"Sister!" My brother yelled at me, snapping me out of my daze. I had been running at full speed, dragging him along. Gasping for breath I came to a quick stop. My brother rammed into me and we fell. My hand, hot and sweaty slipped from my brothers, the sword fell to the floor with a clang and I was shocked when my head hit a wall. Had I kept running I would have...

Little Rose Little Rose
Little blooming flower,
little rose, little rose.
Why have you not bloomed so?
Summer is here,
yet still you are small.
Little rose, little rose.
What do you need to grow?
I'll water you with affection,
till the day our hearts are one,
I'll feed you with sun,
till I can grasp your thorny hand.
Little rose, little rose.
Why do you hide from me?
Protected by the thorny knights.
Little rose, little rose,
Will you open up for me?
Let me be your protector,
little rose, little rose;
how much I love you so.
