POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
please let me take you to a world that you have never been before, let me show you that there are no remedies for insanity. from sexual desires to self-mutilation.....from being in love to murdering your lover
wishes that are stuck in my head
look into my eyes and tell me what you see
are you worthy of me
just breathe i hear her say
you'll be okay
i look at my hands
what a disgrace i am
smile to those afar
no one knows who
you really are, i hear
the voices say
i hate living this way
i hate being this way
why can't someone stop the pain
am i that much of a disgrace
smile smile smile for the camera
be a big girl and pretend to be happy faster
laughter laughter fills the air don't let them
see that you're full of despair
...

it's not something you blame on yourself but it takes a number on your health
mom his hands are in my pants
hot breath is on my neck
please understand i don't
want to pretend
"shut up" he mumbles as he bites into my neck
i feel the tears form again
why won't she believe me
he rubs harder and his hand
on my thigh squeeze roughly
what do they want from me
i pray i die
no fucking goodbyes
tell me why i should be alive
please stop it hurts
his hands down my skirt
"can a girl make you feel like this?"
nothing but pain is what this is
mom i don't want to go to bed tonight ...

hoodie booty shorts and longs socks with my hair in a bun
a beautiful tulip on a sunny day
wind blowing throw my yarn
my eyes sparkle at the thought of her
oh my concrete rose how i envy you
you speak of those who hurt u with so much love
your courage is something i respect
your honesty is something that amazes me
but your ability to forgive is something i envy
how you can look forward and forget
how you can look forward and forgive
when im uncable of it
but ignore my ability to ask why instead of understanding
take me to shelter in your home
lay me down and hold me...

love triangle
how can I want you when I'm someone else's girl?
your smile, personality, and vibe connect with mine
my god why can't be mine?
she makes me laugh
she makes me smile
but she doesn't have time
i knew that from the beginning
i guess i thought i could change her life
i want something real
i want someone here
i want her
she says she wants me
but i think she's pretending
stalling
you make time to talk to me
but you won't make time to see me
i swear it's like you want to be with me
then you...

mass killings
Edgar Allan Poe what a fucked up yet beautiful man
and just like him, i write about the demons in my head
the silence in a room can be deadly
he understood that too.
blood soaks my cushion filled chair
my wet converse squeak against the floor
no one noticing that i am here
no one wondering where i came from
the dead skin under my fingernails
the smell of raw flesh on me
the blood-stained white jeans
why can't no one see me?
i watch people type away
hear their voices as they speak
i promise to make them...

college
the unknown is what scares us
what breaks us
yet define us
i sit where i feel insecure
no silence just noise
people moving and teachers treating people
like toys
my mind has written with a thousand words
and my body just feels so hurt
what gives people the right to make your life harder?
did god tell them the poor must pay
or did the minority just willing participate
people acting as if you don't exist
simply minding their own business
and while that doesn't bother me none
i just wish everyone...

Tomorrow
white Lilly pads and orange sunsets
i wonder why she's so perfect
empty head filled with dreams
sitting in my bed thinking "why won't she text me"
hope that I'll be enough
hope that she won't give up
please say that you'll stay
please don't turn away
please come back another day
let me hear your laugh
the world stops when you do that
please stay for the night
i don't want to say goodbye
kiss me for the first time
give me a reason to never say goodbye
give me a passion written with fresh fruits ...

joy and happiness killer
god damn it the sky is so beautiful
the sun shining through the world
but you won't let it be in this "home"
happiness cannot stick with you
nothing you say and do can bring happiness to you
something simple works your nerves
drain the joy from my bones
no merrow just empty holes
why can't you get out of your fucked up ways
always want to take my happiness away
wtf is wrong with u
it's like you have nothing better to do
you see me smile and it eats at your brain
no happiness or joy can stay
im starting to hate...

how f**ked up i am and what a f**ked up house
there is darkness is this house
so I sit in my room and pout
what good things come from my mouth
but I sit in silence and never shout
how much pain is in this house
there is an unlimited amount
enough to go around
you hate, you lie and you make me want to die
what things you say to make me want to escape
how I see, what I say, to you it all sounds the same
goodbye, good day, I hope you change those awful ways
let me sleep, let me be and please don't ever leave
there is enough pain to fill this house
enough drugs to...

a slave to being abused
clean, serve and do what i say
it's always my way
im older so that means i know more
that why I'm a boy and your a girl
clean, cook and serve me my food
that's what is expected of you
manipulation into obeying my commands
that's why i am a man
you're only purpose is to serve
cook, clean and that's all you deserve
work, pay bills and buy me things
don't forget to cook and clean
make me feel like i am great
why in the world would you
ever want to escape.
do as i say or hell to pay
let me get mad...
