POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
You Will Always Be
..And before it ends
you need to learn
how to be strong...
~Be okay with your history.
it has made you
who you are, now.
You do not have
to love yourself.
But at least
get yourself to a point
where you CARE.
Give yourself
a chance
to finally make that choice
to become
who you WANT to be.
Even if it is
in pieces ,
Give this life
the BEST of you.
Do NOT settle
for who you are
in this moment, alone.
There is still more life to live.

The Silence and The Fear
The roses have wilted
The violets are dead
and demons run circles
Around in my head."
"It is scary what a smile can hide."
~I don't care about myself at all anymore
I've pushed it all away.
not just to the side
but out completely.
~It has gotten to the point
where even if they DONT need me
I'm still giving the entirety
of myself to them.
~I will always go
out of my way
and out of my mind
to try and save someone.
~If I did not solely care for others
I would be completely ...

Inside my Dreams
my dear,
i could tell you stories
of the places i have been
and i could show you memories
of the souls i have seen
darling,
just imagine
mountain tops
that pierce grey clouds
heavy with coming rain
an alle water droplets
pattering on your hair
cascading down your face
oh darling,
just imagine
trees lining a river bed,
the fluttering of birds
and on the ground,
foxes, romping through green ferns
my love,
can you not picture
concrete and steel towers
who's lights brighten...

There is Beauty
"~Oh the monsters
you fight.
the demons
we hide.
I'll wrap you in my arms
breathe strength
into your heart
and as you wish upon the stars
I embrace your many scars
CHORUS:
'cuz darlin' there is beauty
etched upon your arms
there's a priceless love
inside of your heart
I hope you know that you're still gorgeous
with tears falling from your lashes
even when there's sorrow
streaming from those gashes
~ please just know
that I love you so
I understand your pain
as I watch all your...

Fighting...
I do it for him,
And I would do it again.
Yeah I do it for him,
and that's why I'm gonna win.
Keeping my stance wide,
My body lowered
Teeth bared
I'll keep moving forward
Onward like a blur
Moving faster than the wind
And if I start to falter
I'll stay fixed on him
On this battlefield
I'm surrounded by chaos
But his love is my shield
His heart is my sword
He has faith in me
As I fight this war
And because he's sure I'll make it
I know I won't give in
He is my will to live
I defend my...

3 Years
I have managed to do
the most difficult and most personal thing
i have ever done in my life so far...
i went to a college-age,
pre-Thanksgiving get together
and went on stage
in front of about 80 people.
It was just me up there
all on my own
with all those wondering eyes
gazing up at me...
and I told my story;
to explain
what I am thankful for
~~~~~
with hands and voice
trembling,
I stood.
In the past 3 years
I was addicted
to Norco's and heroin
and was
at one point...

The End *recovery*
I GAVE YOU A CHANCE TO TAKE MY PAIN AWAY
YOU CRASHED SO HARD
I CAUGHT YOU IN MY ARMS
AND YOU ZIPPED AROUND
INSIDE MY VEINS.
I NEVER WOULD'VE HANDED YOU ANY THING I HAD
BECAUSE IT WAS NOT YOURS TO HAVE.
YOU MADE ME LOVE
WHAT ALL OTHERS LOATHE
YOU MADE ME
HATE ME.
AND THAT IS NOT WHAT I DESERVED...
NOW THERE'S JUST A MEMORY SO VIVID W/ SENSATIONS
I CAN HEAR YOU CRACKLE AND MELT
AND I CAN STILL SEE YOU AND YOUR PAIN POURING INTO ME
POUND POUND
THE BEAT OF MY BREAKING HEART
POUND POUND...

To My Dear One (reflection)
Oh Love...
take a step
back away
take a moment to think of
what to say
what can you see?
How do you feel
when you look at me?
I'll tell you what i think
when i look into
that cold, heartless slab
of reflective glass...
I see a girl
who is simply
complex.
her mind IS her heart.
it's what she uses to think
but you'd never guess.
her memory is broken.
she's losing more
Everyday.
I do not believe
its because she's getting older though
...no...
I'm...

I know , sometimes
I am negative.
Unfortunately,
It is not something I spiral into or sink into.
For me, it is
More like a change in the flow of my bio electricity.
Sort of like When
Those sociopaths with the phd's
Used to give their patients
Shocks.
It quite literally feels as though
My brain has been shoved into
An outlet
while the plug is wet.
I can feel
a sort of spasm in my head.
And then....
Click.
A switch has been flipped by someone else.
It is difficult
To take control

Value.
I went to my gym tonight and did the usual on the treadmill. 3 minutes at steady walk. 7 minutes race walking. Then 10 minutes of jogging. While in race walk mode, I noticed the front desk employee was staring at me. And as I was jogging, I could still see him staring but he was also laughing with a smerk on his mug.after I finished the 20 minutes on the machine, I had blown my headset while in the zone with my music. So before I went to a different machine, I was on my way to get the other pair of headphones from my car.
As I passed the front desk, the same employee piped up and said...

Insane
how i wish that i
could put my life on hold
if you look me in the eyes
you'll see my heart is growing old
filled up to the brim with
the weight of my own world
im a weak little
scared little
fucked up girl
crack open my skull
you'll only see my brain
maybe if you reach inside
you might feel my pain
if i could only show you
the world i made
behind my wall
you might see butterflies
or nothin at all
i used to put on my shoes
and just walk down the street
not a care in the world
cuz i felt like i was flyin
