POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write as I feel but that's about it. They come from my emotions and that's all I can really say.
Painful
I'm tired of this darkness
this thing that fills me
sending me into the corners
of my mind
Scattering my thoughts
making tears and screams
My only form of communication
I can stay in a haze
ever sleeping
even when awake
but even then
I am just hiding
I want it to end
but they don't care
They think I'm addicted
or want attention
But I don't
the attention hurts
no addiction helps
I just want to be pain free
but all I can do is hide
this thing that fills me
sending me into the corners
of my mind
Scattering my thoughts
making tears and screams
My only form of communication
I can stay in a haze
ever sleeping
even when awake
but even then
I am just hiding
I want it to end
but they don't care
They think I'm addicted
or want attention
But I don't
the attention hurts
no addiction helps
I just want to be pain free
but all I can do is hide

Sleeping Never
MY head spins and turns
constantly in motion
never stopping
never ceasing.
Stop
Just stop
please!
I beg and plead
"Give me SLEEP!"
Let me rest....
Tired,
just...
so.....
tired.
why can't you see
why can't anyone
See?!
I'm just so tired
and all I want to do
is sleep
but the incessant
drip drip dripping
of my blood
from your hands
grows louder
and louder
as I grow colder
and colder.
But I can't sleep
because even in
this world
of six billion people
no one...
constantly in motion
never stopping
never ceasing.
Stop
Just stop
please!
I beg and plead
"Give me SLEEP!"
Let me rest....
Tired,
just...
so.....
tired.
why can't you see
why can't anyone
See?!
I'm just so tired
and all I want to do
is sleep
but the incessant
drip drip dripping
of my blood
from your hands
grows louder
and louder
as I grow colder
and colder.
But I can't sleep
because even in
this world
of six billion people
no one...

Smoke It All Away
Smoke away the fear
Smoke away the doubt
Smok away the stress
Smoke away the tears
Smoke so you don't feel anymore
So that there's a cloud so thick
no one can see you anymore
Hide in the smoke till you're gone
Smoke away the doubt
Smok away the stress
Smoke away the tears
Smoke so you don't feel anymore
So that there's a cloud so thick
no one can see you anymore
Hide in the smoke till you're gone

Not So Meek
Don't believe your eyes
Don't believe your ears
I can be your best lover
But I can be your worst fear
Cross me and see
The door mouse you believe me to be
Will fade behind the truth
As my wrath becomes known.
Know only this
You should never cross me
For I am not as meek as I seem.
Don't believe your ears
I can be your best lover
But I can be your worst fear
Cross me and see
The door mouse you believe me to be
Will fade behind the truth
As my wrath becomes known.
Know only this
You should never cross me
For I am not as meek as I seem.

Change Yourself
How do you defy yourself
How do you change yourself
Even when you know it's for the best
How do you look yourself in the face
And tell yourself "Change!
Don't worry you'll be fine."
How do you move past the fear
Fear instilled into yourself from a young age
How do you become what you want to be
When everything else is telling you it's wrong
How do you change yourself
Even when you know it's for the best
How do you look yourself in the face
And tell yourself "Change!
Don't worry you'll be fine."
How do you move past the fear
Fear instilled into yourself from a young age
How do you become what you want to be
When everything else is telling you it's wrong

No More Games
I can’t play your games anymore
I can’t sit here and watch you hurt me
I can’t play your games anymore
I won’t watch you spurn me
Try as I might to get your attention
All you do is ignore me
I hope to see that smile again
But it seems I only see you frown
I can’t play your games anymore
I can’t sit here and watch you hurt me
I can’t play your games anymore
I won’t watch you spurn me
I wanted to give you happiness
A place you could call your own in my heart
I wanted you to be taken care of
Because all I need is your...

Hide It
I cry for you
and you don't even know it
I weep for you
but I don't show it
I do not understand
'Why
why do you limit
your happiness'
You hide yourself
for a love that hurts
You
but you ignore it
So I cry for you
But I won't
let you see it
and you don't even know it
I weep for you
but I don't show it
I do not understand
'Why
why do you limit
your happiness'
You hide yourself
for a love that hurts
You
but you ignore it
So I cry for you
But I won't
let you see it

Hideous Person
Tell me why
Why we as human beings
go for what is worst for us
Why when we have
something
something sweet
something beautiful
We run and hide
And usually
we hide in the nearest
hideous
thing
person.

Fade away
Sometimes it all becomes to much
I just want to lie down and cry
Scream and break everything around me
just to have a semblance of
"feeling"
better
Days turn into weeks
Weeks into months
and still I get worse
I fear for myself
The walls close in on my life
but no one who can help cares
and everyone who can't does
Why is it that this world
a world that can't survive without us
Doesn't care if the sick
that can be fixed are dieing
We are insignificant
i am insignificant
i could fade away and this world

Deathly Pain
This level of pain
is deeper than an ocean
The knowledge that I know I will lose you
at such a young age
is more than I want to bare
You're my love
my Master
My best friend
and my brother
You're my boyfriend
you're my father
it may sound strange
to others
calling you all of that
but you have been to me
what no one has ever truely been
So please
Please don't leave me
I don't want you to go
it could be years
I know
but it could be days too
Please if anything let it be years
Years
and years
and...

Shadows
My head is such a blur
Shadows of memories past
Seeping back through the cracks
of the walls I put up to bind them
I toss
and I turn
scared of sleep once again
I don't want to dream
Give me that sweet deep blackness of sleep I usually have.
I don't want to scream
I don't want to cry
But I can't stop this ever present flow
It keeps getting faster and faster
This flowing of memories
Nothing seems to quiet it
Nothing seems to stop it
Why now?
Almost 5 years later
I've been fine
No screaming
No crying
Just ever...

Respectful Trust
Trust is lost
so easily
But is so hard
to gain
I was stupid
Undeniably
and completely
idiotic
You forgive me
but don't trust me
All I can hope for
is to prove
That I can and will
Earn that trust again
so easily
But is so hard
to gain
I was stupid
Undeniably
and completely
idiotic
You forgive me
but don't trust me
All I can hope for
is to prove
That I can and will
Earn that trust again
