POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
like respiration I am an inspiration to a small generation who do not need an explanation no limits like an expiration I am the perfect oxidation of a complex organic substance with no restriction.
............my abyss
.. maybe not all wishes come true ... maybe the Irish luck ran out ... Maybe the four leave clover's chlorophyll ran out ... maybe the wishing well dried out ... maybe the shooting star is just a meteor ...and burned out ... and maybe the flames on the candles on a birthday cake are just candles on a cake that one blew out ... and like all this ... I'm just as worthless as wishful thinking ....naa I'm just kidding I'm not even that lucky to be worth a thought or ide-a .... haha gosh the lengths I can go there's no end like my life's an abyss of endless worthlessness

Human logic
I am right in my head
I'm wrong in yours
......That's a 6 or a 9.....
So let's just agree to disagree
.....that's a 69......
Now that's bliss but more pleasurable to one party than the other ....
And that's the only time you'll ever be less than a dime
.....
See I see humans as pieces to a puzzle
Each has their own shape and size
It's not about you, him or her
Shade of your hue or mine
Race or nationality or status
...maybe I'm a purist ......

Star
I got lost in the stars
In your eyes
Like an astronomer
Staring at the stars
You glow like I wished for you
Yes I was star struck
I fell so meteor
Your smile was as bright as the milky way
It was nice to make your
Acquaintance
I'd see you
But i would never meet your standards
Always late and never qualify
Cause when I come
I arrive with short comings
In your eyes
Like an astronomer
Staring at the stars
You glow like I wished for you
Yes I was star struck
I fell so meteor
Your smile was as bright as the milky way
It was nice to make your
Acquaintance
I'd see you
But i would never meet your standards
Always late and never qualify
Cause when I come
I arrive with short comings

When she smiles ( when she smiles )
If everybody who wears them hates glasses
Why do I find them
So attractive?
I mean she is so beautiful even without them
Maybe like an optician I care
About eye wear
But real geeks don't wear unprescribed glasses
Especially when your visions 20.20 like last year
And then she smiles and takes my breath away with a simple curve of her lips
For a moment I forget my name
For a moment I forget speech
For a moment I am lost in her eyes
For a moment I am out of this...

When you're gone...
I hate myself
....but....but... I love you so much
more
Doesn’t make sense does it?
“You have to love yourself first before you can love someone else”
....right ?
Guess that makes me flawed huh
could never be in a relationship
Cause I abhor myself
......about as much as you hate liars....
But I love you
I just do ...
I miss your presence
When you’re absent
When you’re gone it’s like someone turned off the lights in the middle of a drawing...
....but....but... I love you so much

I'm ugly 8 (human reasoning )
... I just wanted to not be ugly anymore
For someone to see me for me
For someone to like me for me
To fit in ....
To not be different anymore
But I'm not anyone else am I
I'm Jeff
It's all I know who to be
I know I say I'm ugly
And people will say I'm not
Which makes me question their reasoning
Like it's okay to say or think someone isn't pretty or handsome enough but it's wrong for that person to acknowledge it for themselves
Who's fooling who

......Waste of a knight
.. He was but a noble Knight
..... Made the queen smile as bright as the night, like the stars in the sky her eyes lit up so bright...
Those ocean blue
That beautiful hue
Pure as a dew
Her smile made flowers bloom
She was the Queen,
Made him her King...
... But he walk away... Like a lost puppy
Couldn't find his way, he lost her gaze... His armor too battered...
He's look not up to standard,
His love too far away...
No word, he could say...
Like leaves...

I'm so sweet
I wanna be the guy who makes you smile
Makes you laugh
I don't wanna be the guy who touches your thighs
Pretentious guys
Who tells you lies ...
This fact that I'm dark, I know
That fact that im trash, I know
I'm not what you want, I know
The fact that I'm sweet, I know
Yes I'm a softy gosh , I know
But I'm not gonna change
I stay true to my name
My words are my cage
There's no one I blame
For the way that I am
So I'm not...

I'm ugly 7
... I don't know Jeff
What to do with you ....
To say you're a disappointment
Would be an understatement
....you're just ugly ....
....I'm sorry but it's true Jeff
......you are ugly
When I look at you
I make the same face
A person would make if
Godzilla's saliva accidentally fell on their face
Eeww!!!
That is how I feel when I see you in the mirror
If all light went out in the universe
You would still be the darkest spot !

Scars
Scars
I've got decade old wounds
That are still internally bleeding
They say time...
Time heals all wounds
But it leaves scars
A reminder of pain that once was
It hurts looking in the mirror
Reflecting on that pain
They say a child is a gift...
Is it still a gift if the parents aren't there to receive it ?
So if life is a gift...
If I take it... at least I chose, right ?
" we all want to be wanted "
False ... I don't even want me .
So I tattoo my skin with a cutlass
Soft slow...

The infinite love ladder
Title : The infinite love ladder
I look at you
The way you look at him
The way you want him to love you
Is the way I love you
But he doesn't notice you
Just like you don't notice me
He doesn't see you in the same light as you see him in
Just like you don't see me in the same light I see you
You're invisible to him romantically
As I am invisible to you romantically
You remain silent
Just as I remain
Silent
You can't see yourself with anyone one else besides him
Just like I...

My heart
Take my heart
drag it through the mud
Stump it!
Go to town on it!!
Wreck it!
Cut it into pieces !
Bash it against the wall
Drive over it ... with a truck!!
Repeat that
Rip it apart
Tear it!!
Take your train of thought and run over it like you lost track like that was your loco-motive .
....
Get over it
Fix it
Spit on it
Damage it
Break it
....please .... please
Twist it
Take it for granted
Take a dump in it
yeah let my heart...
