POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Like most of us, I have an abundance of things to say and I carefully select the words to say them.
True Revelation
When the world kills us all,
Where will we stand?
Will we just fall,
By the enemy’s hand?
Our knees, they will bow
With our eyes open wide
Peer into the darkness
To see what’s inside.
The light will shine through
Like shards of sharp glass
Cutting the fabric
Of our evil past.
Rising to our feet,
My soul will ring the bell
Abolishing pain
Conquering Hell.
Where will we stand?
Will we just fall,
By the enemy’s hand?
Our knees, they will bow
With our eyes open wide
Peer into the darkness
To see what’s inside.
The light will shine through
Like shards of sharp glass
Cutting the fabric
Of our evil past.
Rising to our feet,
My soul will ring the bell
Abolishing pain
Conquering Hell.

Emotional Adventure
If I took you by the hand
Requested that you understand
If I called on you for help,
Would you hear me?
I abruptly grabbed your wrist
And I sealed it with a kiss
If I’m impulsive as I seem,
Am I worth it?
I sat in your arms and cried
Speaking of your past and mine
My scars were visible
Are you scared yet?
Requested that you understand
If I called on you for help,
Would you hear me?
I abruptly grabbed your wrist
And I sealed it with a kiss
If I’m impulsive as I seem,
Am I worth it?
I sat in your arms and cried
Speaking of your past and mine
My scars were visible
Are you scared yet?

Alas, a happy love poem...
These words are all I have
forming the works which keep me sane
providing me the ability to sleep safe and sound.
's my protection, shielding me from the world.
Your love is all I need
to use my words with meaning
trickling out every cent of emotion I have
creating a passionate display
We feel like we belong together
Perfection with each kiss
A bond is there forever
Feelings become strong
The smile traipsing my face
whimsically as we now embrace
feeling...

Father/Daughter complications.
I don't give a damn, what those
naive 'professionals' say, they've never had to
experience this harmful endeavor before.
I'm not some stupid damsel in distress.
I can take care of myself.
You're trying to protect me
from something I created.
You have your pathetic imperfections
am I not allowed to have mine?
You can call me psychotic-
a mental case- whatever
helps you sleep at night.
I've already gotten so far
there's nothing you can do to change it.
Just know that my problems are my own
and they have nothing to...

My Grenade Parody [the song from Bruno Mars]
Hey, come on, we gotta go, go to the airport,
now
Speed, speed down the road, we’re gonna be late
Swear to god, if we miss it, I’m gonna be pissed
is the gift shop open? Oh is it open?
You held my ticket and you threw it in the trash,
you threw it in the trash, how come?
We came all this way and wasted all this cash
'Cause what you don't understand is
I think we just missed the plane, oh god
I even bought the ticket for ya
I hope you get hit by the RIPTA bus
you ruined the plans...

Our unfortunate demise.
Hypocrisy is not your color
you wear it so disgracefully
you are ever so naive.
You're king of the world
yet you brutalize your subjects,
forcing them to worship your false sense
of superiority through it all.
Not me!
Not anymore...
I've had it with
your blasphemy.
Your mouth;
it's full of lies.
Insecurities overwhelm you
they're taken out on me.
Were were so close;
you and I.
So now it saddens me.
We've grown apart, you've changed for bad
I'm done trying to fight!
It shouldn't have had to come to this
I love...

Flashback [Personal]
Have you heard about me?
Of course you have, I'm sure.
I'm the one you constantly attempt to rid your mind of;
with no prevail at all.
I'm the feeling of guilt and agony
bestowed upon your pretty little head
with a sign saying "I told you so!"
The booming noise above you preventing
you from sleep each night for what you've done...
Yeah, it's all coming back now,isn't it?
Because of you I am also the painfully vivid memory of trauma
in a young girls mind, therefore rewinding a certain event in her head
each day...

Super Hero
How do I feel?
I love you to pieces.
When I'm around you
My torment increases.
Eyes puffed and bloodshot
my mind in a whirl
Father and daughter
I was your little girl.
Years come and go
Sedated you remain.
Through the pills and the pipes
you corrupted your brain.
You dwell in Euphoria
I reside in a mess
Out of all heartache
you were my best.
If only there was
something that I could do.
Daddy, please help me
I need to save you...

unhappily ever after..True Story =[
Once upon a fairytale,
you were my everything.
I was princess, Mr. Knight man,
together we would sing.
about the many joys of love,
you'd help my through the bad;
I used to tell you everything.
Even secrets that I had.
Until one day, the kingdom fell...
Left me weeping on my knees.
You threatened to exile me
as I felt my heart freeze .
Yes; we had some problems
that weren't right or just
due to vast intoxications
and your adolescent lust
you sought to slay the dragon
but destroyed my heart instead
if the subjects question...
you were my everything.

Lady MacBeth <3
Light up my life
Clear up the sky
Protect me from damage
For thou dost not lie
Thou art a lady
Pretty, pure and just
Many may pass by
But you I can trust
Silhouette like an angel
You carry with grace
When thou entered my life
Things fell into place...
<3

It's my turn now.
I can't do this anymore,
Feeling the way that I do.
I can't take this shit anymore,
My world has come unglued.
Hell is peeking, rising fast,
How're you?
Forget I asked.
Burning alive now
A feeling inside me
Too much to hide
I have to let it out some how...
...Scream until my lungs bleed,
Sing until my chords give out,
Write until my ink is gone
and the paper fades away.
Cry until my tears dry up (Well they already have).
So let this cliche' poem of fear and angst
be a lesson.
With my pen I am a wizard,
I go wherever...
Feeling the way that I do.
