Poet Introduction
I am a dark soul bursting from a happy world No one can hurt me, No one can touch me I'm Free
Empty
A girl sits alone
In an empty room
Her thoughts race through her head
She can barely see through her tears
Sitting silently on the floor
Knowing she wouldn't feel anything
She gets her blade from its hiding place
She rolls up her sleeve
Exposing skin
She drags the blade across her wrists
Going deeper
Over
and
Over again
The pain it brings can not compare
To the pain in her heart
She knows the joy will soon be there
It's worth the scars that never heal
To not have to feel anything
Except the pain
And the blood ...

She knows the joy will soon be there

The scars
The Cuts
Keep getting worse and worse
Deeper and Deeper
Why do i do this to myself?
I cant help it
Its like a gnawing monster inside me
Trying to be fed
With my pain
Anger
And anguish.
No matter how happy i act
Theres always the monster
Trying to climb out
People call it depression
Saying " ill get over it"
"as long as i take my pills"
But what they dont know
Is what it feels like everyday wishing you were dead
And wondering how the world
Would be a better place
Without me here..
I cant...

Dark Universe
What kind of world do we live in?
Where the media focuses
On which celebrity is wearing what
Instead of raising awareness
For starving children
Where shows like "Jersey Shore"
Focus on people getting drunk
Instead of a show about Make A Wish
A foundation that grants sick kids wishes
What kind of place is this?
A State
Where a man will kill 14 people
Just "because"
A country
Where same sex marriage
Is legal in 6 states
But beastiality is legal in 22
A nation
That throws out...

Can't you see
Sometimes at night,
when I look to the sky, I start thinking of you
and then ask myself, why?
Why do I love you?
I think and smile, because I know the list
could run on for miles.
The whisper of your voice,
the warmth of your touch,
so many little things that make
me love you so much.
The way you support me, and help with
my emotions, the way that you care
and show such devotion.
The way that your kiss, fills me with desire,
and how you hold me with the warmth
of a blazing fire.
The way your eyes shine when you look at...

You're mine<3
Who would have ever thought?
Us. Together.
2 completely different people
Fit together just like puzzle pieces.
Like Yin and Yang.
In perfect harmony
So perfectly in sync.
So perfectly in love.
The way your fingers fit
Perfectly in between mine.
The way you kiss my forehead
Makes me feel so loved
And safe.
I've never had this before
I've never felt this before
I thing this could be real
I think you could be the one
My one and only
Forever and Always.
<3

You're beautiful
Life is hard
For different reasons
For different people
But we have to work through it
Because we need to be happy
We need to continue with our lives
To show that we truly are "fine"
Not to prove to others
But to prove to ourselves
Life sucks sometimes
But there are good reasons to continue living
Your family loves you
They may not show it
But they would do anything to help you
To protect you
Because eventually you will be all that they have
We all have personal struggles
But it takes true courage ...

What is love?
Love is a crazy thing
A crazy stupid thing
it makes you do things
and say things
you never thought you would do
so why does everyone keep
chasing it?
Because we are human
we need our other half...
our soul mate
But what if that soul mate
Doesnt love you back?
What if they just want to be friends?
Well that doesnt matter
Because eventually
Fate will bring you back together
And you will be together
Forever

You left me..
Behind all the hair dye
Behind all the tears
There is a girl
afraid to show her fears
Afraid to be weak
Afraid to be hurt
She keeps it all inside
Till she feels like dirt
Theres a girl that you once knew
That girl is gone now
And so are you
You said youd never leave
You said youd always be there
So whered you go?
This truely show that you care
I never let anyone in
But when i do
I was stupid enough
To choose someone like you
Why cant u love me
How i love you?

Red Rubies
He walks down the alley
Alone
Drunk
A disgrace to men
I creep up slowly
Stalking my pray
I dig my fangs into
The gooey flesh of his neck
Delicious red rubies rush into my mouth
And do a glorious dance on
My eager tongue
Spilling all over the ground
I drink and drink
Feeling his life slipping away
I swallow the last drops of my meal
My thirst satisfied
Who cares if he had a soul
Who cares if he had a family
Hes dead now
By the night terror
Known as me
Humans are useless creatures
An inferior race
Why...

Every little flaw
Have you ever looked into the mirror
And hated what you saw
Wishing you were skinnier
Wishing you didnt have acne
Wishing for better hair
Hoping for a miracle to look like
The models in the magazines
With their beautiful faces
Hourglass shaped bodies
And their fantastic hair.
Every little flaw is a knife in
My gut when I look in the mirror
Seeing everything thats wrong with me
Seeing why no one wants me
I wish i was beautiful
I wish i was perfect
I wish
That i wasnt me
And hated what you saw
Wishing you were skinnier
Wishing you didnt have acne
Wishing for better hair
Hoping for a miracle to look like
The models in the magazines
With their beautiful faces
Hourglass shaped bodies
And their fantastic hair.
Every little flaw is a knife in

Seeing everything thats wrong with me
Seeing why no one wants me
I wish i was beautiful
I wish i was perfect
I wish
That i wasnt me

You're Not Worthless
I know i'm just a familiar face in the crowd...
No special qualities
No movie star looks...
Just me.
But I'm sure i have some of the same problems that most of you do.
I used to self harm myself.
I used to spend my nights crying and
Finding various tools to cut open my wrists.
I also used to have an eating disorder
I used to not eat for days at a time
Cause i was so ashamed of how i looked
How i acted
who i was
I've been in your place
I've wanted to die
I've wanted to forget about life
To make everyone's life easier and just...
