POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write freeverse mostly but sometimes I write haiku. I like to make my poems clear with the meaning. Lengthy with a curt meaning behind them.

Suck it up
Are you truly going
To sit in the middle
Of this mundane classroom-
With white walls and
A high ceiling-drowning
In your own self pity
And despair?
Are you going to listen
To the common voice
Of society teach you its
Laws whilst suffocating
Without anyone else
Noticing?
Your drowning in your
Self diagnosed mental
Disorders an first world
Problems.
Suck it up!
It's not cool to be depressed.
Bipolar disorder is not a fad.
Anorexia should not be praised-
And neither should obesity,...

Fourteen
Thankyou for telling
Me that I'm useless.
It really brings up
My self esteem.
Sorry I'm only
Fourteen and cant
Contribute to the family.
It's not my fault I'm
A child, just don't
Treat me like an adult.
I'm forced to think
Like one and act like
One, but I'm really not.
I'm fourteen....just barely
In high school.
What you tell me
Just makes me feel
Pressured to get a job
And pay my parents money.
I'm hell bent on that.
I can't contribute but
Neither could you at
Fourteen....
Me that I'm useless.
It really brings up
My self esteem.
Sorry I'm only
Fourteen and cant
Contribute to the family.
It's not my fault I'm
A child, just don't
Treat me like an adult.
I'm forced to think
Like one and act like
One, but I'm really not.
I'm fourteen....just barely
In high school.
What you tell me
Just makes me feel
Pressured to get a job
And pay my parents money.
I'm hell bent on that.
I can't contribute but
Neither could you at
Fourteen....

Hate is a deadly drug
Crap! What have I done?
Fuck! I just can't stop.
Shit! I already know I need to quit!
Just one more time,
I tell myself as I walk
Into the alley where the
Devil himself waits
For me to give him another
Piece of my soul.
A simple trade
For the goods. I don't
Need but I want it.
So with a smile on
My face I tell him,"no more."
He answers,"sure, I know."
He was being sarcastic
And his gritty, deep voice
Rang in my ears for all
4 years
