It's love.
It all started with a poem
A few stanzas constructed to tell a story
A few feelings bled out on to paper.
A well thought out masterpiece
From then it grew into a love story
A story all their own.
Something not even a fairy tale author could think of
This love story was one the world had never known.
The girl was a wondering dreamer,
Intrigued about the world around
The boy was a reclusive genius
Who walked with his eyes glued to the ground.
Their paths crossed for a reason.
A reason of the unknown
The passion and love that came with...

Beautiful Robin
There once was a beautiful robin,
a small, but elegant bird.
She always flew around my yard,
singing a song in which I had never heard.
Her song matched the rhythm of her wings,
the wings that carried her around my yard everyday
She would look at me then fly again,
Maybe she was trying to show me the way?
Maybe she thought i was lost?
Or that i was a wondering soul,
but whatever she was trying to tell me,
I was curious to know.
Everyday I would sit out and watch the beautiful bird
leap into her marvelous flight
I would...
a small, but elegant bird.
She always flew around my yard,
singing a song in which I had never heard.
Her song matched the rhythm of her wings,

She would look at me then fly again,

The reality of me
There is something crawling beneath my skin
Its driving me crazy
I cant stop scratching
Something is torturing me from within
My hands continue to shake
Keeping me up all night
I am supposed to be seduced in a peaceful sleep
But yet i lie awake
My heart is beginning to race now
My breathing is heavy
Why are you doing this to yourself Maggie?
I guess you have finally fallen off the edge.
I Remember how nice it was to sleep
Before the insomnia settled in of course
It entered my life so sudden
impacting it with such...

No one hears them
No one gets it
No one understands
No one decodes the screams
from the mouth of my right hand
No one hears the sadness
No one hears my cries
No one bothers to listen
They comfort me with their lies
No one understands
No one decodes the screams
from the mouth of my right hand
No one hears the sadness
No one hears my cries
No one bothers to listen
They comfort me with their lies

Trapped within
She prepares for another day.
Another war.
Another battle lost.
Another flesh wound. On her heart.
She battles the person with in
Day in and day out
Her greatest enemy is the one she cant escape.
Herself.
The demons with in her being are demanding and unforgetful.
She cant be relieved of her past.
She cant make them stop.
She, is trapped in a never ending cycle of regret.
She lost who she was
thats when the demons began to consume
They are becoming a part of who she is
She cant make them leave
Haunted by her...

I Miss It All
There is a burning desire inside of me
A strong urge that I want to fulfill
I want to love someone
I want to feel something real
I miss the wonderful sensation
of having someone care for me
I miss the feeling of caring for someone
I miss what used to be
I miss having someone to cuddle with
having someone to share my every thought
I miss having someone to talk with me
I miss the warmth and comfort
I guess I just miss love
I miss the mutual feelings
I miss the hugs and kisses
I miss all of the above :/

Childhood Scars
Fog from my breath,
suspense in the air
Will I meet my death?
deep in the devils layer
Hands trembling with fear
grasping a silver cross
wiping away foolish tears
just retribution from my loss
Stepping across the threshold
down a bath with no return
my final chapter being told
cast into the fire to burn
Sanctuary is quiet and vacant
I stand before mother Mary
her eyes passing judgement.
This sin I am willing to carry
Swinging open the office door
fear shadows the pastor's face
understanding what was...
suspense in the air
Will I meet my death?

Hands trembling with fear
grasping a silver cross
wiping away foolish tears
just retribution from my loss
Stepping across the threshold

I stand before mother Mary

Shy Love
I sat down beside him
not thinking he'd see
but once I was settled his eyes were on me
Piercing my every being
I was totally speechless.
I couldnt meet his gaze
my heart started racing
was he just playing games?
His eyes were so warm
they took my breath away
as the minutes ticked by I wanted him more
I still couldnt look up,
my eyes remained on the floor.

Breathe my words
Its hard to write the words
when no one understands
when no one hears the screams
from the mouth of my right hand
See fire with rage
and blue on a shattered heart
see black in a dismal cage
with a better understanding of a worse tomorrow
See gold with happiness
and green with envy
see a lovers kiss
see a heroes victory
Breathe my words
show the world your strength
show the world your power
Bring the skyscrapers, a headstone for our world. Bring them crashing down
a show for the boys and girls.
But alas my...

The voices.
" They're here again mommy."
she whispers yet again
" The shadows are following me.
They are starting to call me friend."
" They are reaching for me mommy!"
She screams yet again
" I cant move, I cant run,
they are torturing me from within."
The voices continue to follow me
altering my reality
morphing things into torturous images
Things im used to, my normality.
Imagine sitting in class one day
writing down notes from the board
Then you feel a constricting feeling, your breath...
she whispers yet again
" The shadows are following me.
They are starting to call me friend."
" They are reaching for me mommy!"
She screams yet again
" I cant move, I cant run,

Young Girl
Young girl
Trapped in a perfect society
full of anxiety
and ever so quietly
she bows her head
full of dread
and cries
Young girl
lost in a hurricane
Cant maintain
all her pain
cant explain
her open vein
Young girl
cant wait to be older
cant wait to be bolder
to be either dead or away
from today
where she is just
A Young Girl.
