POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
This isn't a love story
..
But when I reached up to grab the hand that always helped me
I had a fist full of ash staining my palms and eyes full of smoke
I watched the last bits of you burn away through bleeding eyes
wishing I didn't take you for granted
You were the light sent by a divine force to make my blind self see again
You were the hand that pulled away the curtain revealing a beautiful collage of painted colors underneath
...
You opened me up and read the deepest parts of my soul like a book
You studied the words between my sentences and discovered...

Mantra
We wake
We walk
We fight
We die a little bit inside
And we keep walking
Because it’s us
We’re everything
We walk
We fight
We die a little bit inside
And we keep walking
Because it’s us
We’re everything

January
Rain came from your lips
Tasting sweet
But the sounds you sang between breaths
Were heavenly

On love
Just because it didn't last
Doesn't mean it wasn't real

A doll just like me
Yes, I am broken
And yes I have died
But let me just tell you
How I tried to survive
My heart yearned to love,
but it was in pain
and as the pain swelled, it tried to heal
But when I healed, there came a scar
And I remembered a love, not very far
before my eye was not the memory
but the hurt that came after
the loss and the misery
thoughts of an unknown destiny
an undiscovered identity
I did not fall back, no
I stood there and spoke to my past
As if it were a thing
“Suddenly I...

True beauty
The war that young men fought
stained history with blood
But those brave men themselves
Made this world a more beautiful place
Those who are blind
Only know the beauty
of those who speak kind words
And those who are deaf
Only know the beauty of those who do kind things
Beauty is not physical,
Its an intangible act made for others.
True beauty is sacrifice.
True beauty is kindness.
True beauty is love.

Goodbye
I remember...
Making you smile
Making you laugh
Calling you my brother
I remember...
How hard it was for me to say
"I love you"
But I know the toll it took on you
To get the truth out of me
I remember...
Letting you in, and the pain I felt every time we spoke...
For I had never known any kind of love before...
Had never known kindness, caring or happiness
I would be in bliss to experience that sweet torture to my soul For a thousand years if it meant...
If it meant you were alive.

Dont trust your father
Don't trust father
My mother would always say that to me
Don't trust your father don't trust your father don't trust your father
Those words would spin around my head like the wheels of a bicycle. Turning and turning.
But I never understood what they meant.
Don't trust your father don't trust your father don't trust your father
Now that I'm older I realize I should have listened to her
Now that I'm older I remember all the little things he did that seemed like no big deal at the time
but now are the things I think about the most
when he seemed to disappear...

cold
All I've ever learned
In my life
Is coldness
I know the feeling,
Love it, crave it
Let it take me over
Because when my heart is locked in ice
I don't have to be hurt anymore.
I won't feel others words, hugs or kisses
I can just live like the hollow person that I am
Maybe one someone will thaw me out
I doubt it
But untill then
I think I'll just stay here
In my icy wonderland
In my life
Is coldness
I know the feeling,
Love it, crave it
Let it take me over
Because when my heart is locked in ice
I don't have to be hurt anymore.
I won't feel others words, hugs or kisses
I can just live like the hollow person that I am
Maybe one someone will thaw me out
I doubt it
But untill then
I think I'll just stay here
In my icy wonderland

A wish for death
With the rise and the fall of the tree's so divine
there can only be one thing I love
cherry blossoms sway and dance to the rhythm the wind blows
there is only one song I may sing
Let them free, sparkling fairy's shedding light to darkened clouds
let it be known a princess can never be saved by her true love after he saves her from the towering castle she rests in
when the rain falls down, I'm on my knees
praying for only one reason
pleading with heart
rinse my sanity away
I ache to feel the vibrations of thunder
I scream to see the...

Kate
To My unborn daughter
who grew steadily in my womb
I picked out a name for you
a name that means the world to me
Kate, after my best friend
I bought clothes for you,
white and yellow onesies
white because you were the start of a brand new life
for me and for you
Yellow because as the sun is the center of our solar system,
you are the center of mine and brighter than a star
I sang to you, even though you weren't born yet
every night my lips produced the lullaby of Daisy Bell
and everyday I plucked fresh daisy's to place...
