POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
As a poet, I share my personal experiences as a young adult. Life is a roller coaster and you can only take it one day at time so why not share it with everyone?
Hate
Tired of love,
Tired of you,
I hate you,
I hate this town,
Made me cold,
I'm not weak, i'm strong
I was there for you
I hate you
I hate you i hate you
I can't do this anymore
I can't be here
I was under the moonlight
With you
I was in your arms
And you acted like you liked me
You fake
You a liar
I tried
I tried so hard
Get your mood right
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
You are the dirt beneath my feet
You are hurtful
Mean
Heartbreaking
I can't stand...
Tired of you,

You are hurtful

Heart on my sleeve
Heart been broke so many times
I don’t believe in love
My mom says it’s my fault
But how could it be my fault
I know I wear my heart on my sleeve
Think it’s best if I put my heart away
It’s the best for me
if I put my heart on ice
It ain’t healing no more
See I’ve shed more tears than I’ve shared
My smile
These days everything seems so rainy
You got the best of me
Now I realize that people don’t deserve that side
So why I should I give it up
When y’all don’t deserve it
The weight of society on my shoulders ...
I don’t believe in love
My mom says it’s my fault
But how could it be my fault
I know I wear my heart on my sleeve
Think it’s best if I put my heart away
It’s the best for me
if I put my heart on ice
It ain’t healing no more
See I’ve shed more tears than I’ve shared
My smile
These days everything seems so rainy
You got the best of me
Now I realize that people don’t deserve that side
So why I should I give it up
When y’all don’t deserve it
The weight of society on my shoulders ...

Ain’t thinking about you
Tonight is so perfect without you
You and me are finished
You calling me a heartbreaker
Wasting time
Trust me
When I’m doing me
I’m not thinking about you
I’m too cute to have you on my mind
Boy I’m ain’t trippin
Tonight I’m going out with my girls
I’m chucking up the deuces
I’m just tryna have a great time tonight
When I’m up in the club
I don’t want a call from you
Don’t kill my vibe
This is once in a lifetime for me
I may be a heartbreaker
But you ain’t makin this heart beat
Trust me
I’m one...

Tired of pain
I got pain in my heart
That won’t go away
I told you that
I wish my life was all about the money
That’s all I could think about
I lost people in my life to dumb things
Little drama
You won’t catch me right now
I hope you hate the other side
I ain’t got nothing to lose
If your shoot me do it right
A couple hundred times
I did it right
I told you before
I was taught to stand up for myself
Watch me walk away
Put it between my eyes
My tattoos are my story
I come from nothing
I’m hoping to turn it...

If the moon fell down
I remember when you first approached me
With those big brown eyes
And that beautiful smile
I spend everyday thinking about you
I even dream about you at night
If the moon fell down tonight
I would be able to find you no matter what
I made a promise to you
I'm never leaving you
You make the whole world shine
I remember when You asked me out
I must have done something right
Because I have you right here in my life
I’m crazy about you
So when you leave
I miss you
I love you
I want to be by your side
I...

No love
First let me apologize
I didn’t realize that the truth
The honesty behind the lies
I’m not sure
If it’s because my heart hurts
Or because I’m insecure
You’re not him
He broke my heart
And I’m never gonna be the same
I haven’t been happy since I was with him
My first love did his worst
Broke my heart beyond repair
I can’t cut corners
I’m starting to not give a damn
I’m not sure
Where to go
Baby you’re not him
I’m not really tryin to leave this earth
I don’t know where to turn
I don’t have a heart ...

Smile
Time after time
I wish i could see you smile
Im living a lie
Because i wish there was a you and i
I’d do anything for you
Just to see you happy
It was a mistake
Shit
You’re my best friend
I dont want this to impact us
Maybe i should step back
Im sad inside
Im missing something inside
I want to smile more
You make me smile
Id anything for you
I wouldnt hurt you
Like she did
I wish i could see you smile
Im living a lie
Because i wish there was a you and i
I’d do anything for you
Just to see you happy

Broken mess
Today I read our old text messages
All the way till our breakup
It felt awkward
It felt weird
You were right
I wasn’t confident enough
I wasn’t secure
I wasn’t a woman
I was a girl
A girl who you couldn’t look in her eyes
To say good-bye
I said ok night
And you hit me with the moon emoji
You couldn’t even say night
You said yes to being friends
But i made the mistake
Of thinking that we would be
We tried
Oh how we tried
But i couldn’t let go
Oh how stupid i was, ...

At my best
I wrote this from the bottom of heart,
I’m trying to find myself,
I’ve been hurt,
I’ve been broken,
I make mistakes,
I’m not perfect,
My body has scars,
My heart isn’t made of steel,
Look a little closer,
I’m only human,
I’m not at your disposal for sex,
I’m not an object,
I shout,
I scream, I swear, I get angry,
I cry, I get scared.
I fall, I break, I mess up, I make mistakes,
But if you can’t accept me for me then you don’t deserve me at my best.
I’m fed up,
I’m writing this not as a joke,
I’m...

We don’t talk anymore
I used to talk to you every day,
Now we don’t even talk anymore,
We just stare at each other,
Look at each other through a phone,
I just want you to be happy,
Please tell me,
Are you okay?
Are you drowning?
What’s wrong?
You don’t text me back,
I don’t want to date you,
I want you alive,
Breathe for me,
Don’t disappear on me,
Where’s that beautiful smile?
Where’s that laugh?
Where are you?
Please be okay on the inside,
Talk to me,
Someone.
That’s all I want.

Lucid Dream
I have these lucid dreams
Where you are standing there so close
So far
I see the love i gave you drifting closer
I still see the movement you made in my life
Easier said than done
I am the better one in your past life
I still think I had a chance
I know it’s all in my head
I still have these lucid dreams
Where i can’t move a thing
I’d do it over again
If it meant that i would learn
Something
You made my heart break
You made my heart ache
I still see your shadows moving in my thoughts
I still hear your voice...
Where you are standing there so close
So far
I see the love i gave you drifting closer
I still see the movement you made in my life

I am the better one in your past life
I still think I had a chance

I still have these lucid dreams
Where i can’t move a thing

If it meant that i would learn
Something
You made my heart break
You made my heart ache
I still see your shadows moving in my thoughts
I still hear your voice...

Emo Girl
Depression is like that friend that annoys you
Depression is like that one big ass cloud in the sky
That won’t move.
Depression is missing that feeling of freedom
That ability be able to do anything or just simply getting up in the morning
Depression is like waiting for the other foot to drop
Just waiting for it to all stop
Depression is chasing those happy memories
Knowing you cant go back
That drowning feeling
Knowing that you feel alone and desperately trying to grasp some air
Its being alone
Alone. Alone. Alone. ...
