POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Mostly just write horror or sad love poems. I haven't watched a lot of horror so my knowledge on it can be very limited. That makes it sometimes hard to write horror poetry so suggestions from you will be helpful!!
Spirit
She’s the one who did it.
The lady who sat in the back.
She got away with it.
Murdered me and buried me
Deep in the woods.
I can’t tell anyone,
For she cut out my tongue.
I can’t write it,
For she chopped up my fingers.
I can’t see anymore,
For she burned out my eyes.
I can’t breathe anymore,
For she slit my throat.
I try my best,
To write her name,
With my bloody hands.
But the living freak out and run.
They don’t understand.
I only want to rest in peace.

I'm Human
I hear him.
I hear him coming.
I hear him dragging his chains and tools.
I hear my heart thumping.
I hear his laughter, which sounds like ghouls.
I hear the sound of the others whimpering.
I hear the others praying to die.
I hear the crack of bones limbering.
I hear the sound of the dead fall as the ropes untie.
i hear the sound of the police bursting in.
I hear the police come near me.
I hear one say, "Dear God, what is that thing?"
I tell him raspy,
With blood coming out,
"I'm Human."
I hear him scream.
I hear him coming.

You broke my heart
Crushed into pieces, my soul
I don’t want us to depart
Give me back the heart you stole
Give it back so I can live
Live without you my love
So that I may forgive
I’m just a mourning dove
Hate and love at the same time
It gets so confusing and it’s painful
Is it such a crime?
To continue to think you’re beautiful
You have hurt me and I won’t forget
I will get you back for this
You will pay back to me your debt
You have ruined my perfect bliss.
But I still really love you
WHAT AM I...
Crushed into pieces, my soul
I don’t want us to depart
Give me back the heart you stole
Give it back so I can live
Live without you my love
So that I may forgive
I’m just a mourning dove
Hate and love at the same time
It gets so confusing and it’s painful
Is it such a crime?
To continue to think you’re beautiful
You have hurt me and I won’t forget
I will get you back for this
You will pay back to me your debt
You have ruined my perfect bliss.
But I still really love you
WHAT AM I...

Repeat
Kill
That’s all I think.
Murder
I see it every time I blink.
Torture
The feeling rises inside me.
Blood
It fills my heart with glee.
Scream
It’s music to my ears.
Cry
I love their bloody tears.
Kill
I see my next experiments.
Murder
I’ll drag them into the basement.
Torture
How lovely, it’s never a bore.
Blood
Dripping down and making pools on the floor.
Scream
So loud your throat begins to burn.
Cry
The next person knows now it’s his turn.
Kill
Many choices in the room.
Murder
Don’t...

Burned
This isn’t fair
I didn’t do anything!
I’m not the one who did it!
Why should I have to die for someone else’s crime?
Why?
I told them!
I TOLD them!
But they didn't listen,
Judged before I spoke.
Thought I was the killer
But I wasn't
They were the real murderers
They are going to kill me!
I didn't kill that little girl
My own father doesn't believe me
They tied me up to this pole.
Gagged and bounded me.
That way no one would know the truth.
I struggled against my bindings.
Desperately trying to escape.
Sweat...

Sally Doesn't Like Easter
Sally doesn't like Easter,
For her eggs are filled with eyeballs.
Her Jellybeans
Are filled with teeth.
Her stuffed bunny
Screams and crawls.
Tongues diced up
In her Peeps.
Razors and blood
In her chocolate bunny treats.
The Easter grass
Is greasy hair.
But no one seems to care.
My parents didn't notice.
They laughed at me.
But I pleaded and cried twice.
Mom said, “It’s alright.”
Popped one in her mouth and died.
Dad said, “I don’t care.”
Ate one to be...

Child's Play
Won’t you play with me?
I want to have a friend
I get very lonely
And you can make the pain end
I'll even let you hold teddy
Don’t worry about Daddy’s tools
Want to see my lucky penny?
Let’s play don’t step on the red pools
C’mon you don’t have to run
Why are you scared, why do you cry
I just want us to have some fun
I’m not ready for your good-bye
I want to play one more
Where you lie down on the table
I will be the doctor and you sleep forevermore
The patient is no longer stable
I want to have a friend
I get very lonely
And you can make the pain end
I'll even let you hold teddy

So you think I was kidding?
So you think I was kidding?
Being a stupid girl exaggerating?
I swear I don’t want to hurt you.
But, there’s no resisting what I want to do.
I want to hear your blood curdling scream.
For I have the most devious scheme.
My hands get cold and sweaty.
At the thought of slurping your intestines like spaghetti.
I want to see the dripping of your blood.
Staining the dirt to dark mud.
I told you I’m out to kill
But you came for a thrill.
Thought I was going to give you a scare?
Then we’d laugh and you’d scare me back just to be...

Kidnapped
He’s here.
I know it.
I feel it.
Somewhere,
in the shadows,
he waits.
Patiently,
Happily,
He’ll get me soon.
I can’t run
forever.
He’ll catch me.
Then after he has
caught me, his
fun begins.
But,
I have to try,
For my sake.
Carefully,
I walk,
Slowly forward.
I’m halfway
through the dark,
Damp alley.
Mother said he
wouldn't find
me here.
She said it will
all be fine and
I will be safe at home soon.
But he promised he would ...
I know it.
I feel it.

Mental Illness
This isn't real
even though
I see
I smell
I feel
This is a nightmare
inescapable
undeniable
No one there
All alone here
silent
dark
full of fear
I wake up sweaty and hot
restrained
padded walls
another shot
Goodnight
even though
I see
I smell
I feel
This is a nightmare
inescapable
undeniable
No one there
All alone here

I wake up sweaty and hot

Catacombs of Paris
Down deep under Paris’ streets,
Lies the catacombs.
Bodies so old they've rotted away their meat.
Rats skittering throughout this labyrinth
Grinning skulls greet you eerily
All other sounds of life are absent
Stop, this is the empire of the dead
Enter into the secret passages if you dare
Get hurt and the catacombs might be your deathbed.

Asking Him
Hey,
I think it’s about time I asked these questions.
Am I allowed to be near you?
Am I allowed to look you in the eye and laugh at your jokes?
Am I allowed to sit at the same table as you and join in on conversations?
Hey,
I've been beginning to wonder.
Does it have to be this awkward?
Do we have to avoid each other?
Do we have a chance at remaining friend after High School?
Hey,
I've been down because of these thoughts.
Would you care if I was gone?
Would you care if something happened to me?
Would you care if I was upset...
