POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write mostly about my day to day emotions, experiences, and thoughts. Every fucked up thought I have usually ends up here.
Call Me Baby One More Time
How do I tell you that I miss you
Or that I wonder what we could have been?
I can't even be sure if this feeling is real
Or if I'm just in love with daydreaming.
All I know is I'm lonely;
In the silence, I hear my thoughts screaming.
Your mood swings and mine combined
Make for a hell of a playground.
They all tell me that you were crazy bout me,
But some part of me refuses to believe it's true.
A man could try to spoil me,
And to reject it seems like the only thing to do.
I can't figure out which of us are to blame, ...
Or that I wonder what we could have been?
I can't even be sure if this feeling is real
Or if I'm just in love with daydreaming.
All I know is I'm lonely;
In the silence, I hear my thoughts screaming.
Your mood swings and mine combined
Make for a hell of a playground.
They all tell me that you were crazy bout me,
But some part of me refuses to believe it's true.
A man could try to spoil me,
And to reject it seems like the only thing to do.
I can't figure out which of us are to blame, ...

Devil in my Ear
I got a preacher's daughter gone wild
Type of rebellion in my bones.
These stubborn angels follow me
In cardinal wings; I'm never alone.
My shadows grow ever impatient
Waiting for me give up on nice boys
And their safe cookie cutter lives
That don't make much noise.
I'm eying the tattooed man
With a demon lurking in his eyes,
Though prematurely I know
He will be my demise.
My ex best friend and my baby daddy
Think it's funny to fuck my friends;
Forgetting who I used to be.
Baby, let the...

Only for you Daddy
You feed my demons,
And that's why I crave you.
Pussy gripping on you tight
And you know what to do.
Every inch is electric
Pulsing through my skin
Heightening every touch
As I take you in.
Your words are mean
Like calloused hands on my neck
Tears of joy cumming on
While I gasp for breath.
You're the air I need,
That toxic push and shove.
I want that battle of wills
Eyes locked on mine type of love.
And that's why I crave you.
Pussy gripping on you tight
And you know what to do.
Every inch is electric
Pulsing through my skin
Heightening every touch
As I take you in.
Your words are mean
Like calloused hands on my neck
Tears of joy cumming on
While I gasp for breath.
You're the air I need,
That toxic push and shove.
I want that battle of wills
Eyes locked on mine type of love.

abuse me
Its gas pedal to the floor
When you drive me crazy.
My heart skips a beat
The way you treat me,
And it makes me crave you
Even more.
Words that cut my heart
Open, tender and sore,
As if I were nothing
But a pretty little whore.
Still, I think maybe
It's love.

Inner Struggles
She said "I love you"
Several times at random today.
I know she knows
I need to know,
But even that reassurance
Feels like a mockery
To the parts of me
That question everything good
In my life.
Today,
The whole world feels like my enemy,
And my pathetic emotional flails
Seem useless against
The weight of it all.
Humming "shelter me, Lord,
Underneath your wing",
I strap up for battle once more.

Blame it on the Full Moon
Fuck it, I blame the full moon.
Old feelings bubble up like heartburn
Leaving a sour taste in my mouth
Mixed with stale ashtray butts
And redbull.
I sit on my bed half dressed
Unable to make sense of myself
With a dress and heels laid out
That feel like a bandaid
To a limb blown off my body.
The cloud of smoke
Curls around me like cheap perfume,
Leaving me lightheaded
And discombobulated,
Still aching for one hit of something
I know will ruin me.

Midnight Mood Swings
Nevermind, I'm fine.
Pay the waterworks no mind.
When the sun rises,
So will I,
Tears dried and my heart full.

Rebound
The last time your heart was broken,
You called me with your voice full of anguish.
Choking on tears, you sought me out to console you.
I showed up outside your job,
Waiting for closing time,
A bottle of shitty alcohol in hand.
We sat outside and talked for hours,
The first intimate moment shared
In years.
I drove away smiling,
Hopeful for the following year of healing
For us both.
I wasn't ready.
Too soon, you want to give her your last name,
And its my heart that now screams in pain.

Under my Roof
One day,
My home will be one full of love and laughter.
One day,
My daughter's cup will run over with her happily ever after.
One day,
I can say I did what my parents could not.
One day,
I will know the joy that simply cannot be bought.
One day,
I'll be a happy old woman in a wooded home.
One day,
Escaping myself will not drive me to aimlessly roam.
One day,

Living on Hope
Anxious thoughts run in circles
Carving deep ruts into their paths
As my brain is left tender and sore.
This burden looks so ordinary,
But the new normal feels fulfilling
In a way that makes me crave more.
I want to know sleepless nights
With a sick child or last minute school projects
Just to get up and face the work day, after all.
I want to know the milestones with fervent love
From the first day of kindergarten
To hearing giggles at a sleepover echoing through the walls.

Darling
My darling baby
I hope you'll always find safety
In my arms,
Wisdom and comfort in my voice,
And everlasting warmth
In the time I am to be in your life.
You are my light
In a world gone dark,
And when all around
Seems to crush me
Under the weight
Of my burdens,
I remember the reason
I rise up
To fight again.
I hope you'll always find safety

Under the weight
Of my burdens,

Nameless
From walking on air euphoria
To seeing an enemy in every pair of eyes,
I swing wildly from one to the other
In only a day
Or even a matter of hours.
Like a scared orphan,
I walk these roads alone.
No mother to be my nurturing ally
And no father to be my guiding protector.
The absence of their embrace
Is like the arms of ghosts
And hallucinations.
Who am I?
If not a number or a last name,
What is my anchor
When all else fails around me?
Netflix binges
Well into the wee hours of the morning ...
