POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Storm Together
Let's get together
And be a storm
We can even make a tornado
When my cold meets your warm
I'll be the lightning
You be the thunder
We can be dark and mysterious
And woven with wonder
We can rain on parades
And skip wedding days
We don't have to follow rules
Let's set the world ablaze
But when all is said and done
I don't want to fade away
So let's go storm together again
Some other day
And be a storm
We can even make a tornado
When my cold meets your warm
I'll be the lightning
You be the thunder
We can be dark and mysterious
And woven with wonder
We can rain on parades
And skip wedding days
We don't have to follow rules
Let's set the world ablaze
But when all is said and done
I don't want to fade away
So let's go storm together again
Some other day

She Became The Moon
The love of my life
Became the moon
She is far away from me
Where the stars are strewn
She'll always be above me-
Her beauty is unobtainable
I could reach for her forever
If only my arms were able
But even then, I know
Arms and hands could never touch her
She's too extraordinary
I only have memories of what we once were
I have to settle for gazing
When the nights are cloudlessly clear
I'll have to settle for sleepless nights
Wishing she were here
Became the moon
She is far away from me
Where the stars are strewn
She'll always be above me-
Her beauty is unobtainable
I could reach for her forever
If only my arms were able
But even then, I know
Arms and hands could never touch her
She's too extraordinary
I only have memories of what we once were
I have to settle for gazing
When the nights are cloudlessly clear
I'll have to settle for sleepless nights
Wishing she were here

only me
do you remember me?
or am i just another face
i remember you
wait, nevermind
it's not you i remember
i recall biting words rather
the way my nails left marks on your back
i remember your name on my lips
but somebody else's on yours
the sound of shattered glass
and tattered hearts
i recall stolen kisses
not on my lips
i remember stolen words
never said to me
so, i guess it could be said
i remember you
and only you
but i know
you don't remember only me
it was never only me
or am i just another face
i remember you
wait, nevermind
it's not you i remember
i recall biting words rather
the way my nails left marks on your back
i remember your name on my lips
but somebody else's on yours
the sound of shattered glass
and tattered hearts
i recall stolen kisses
not on my lips
i remember stolen words
never said to me
so, i guess it could be said
i remember you
and only you
but i know
you don't remember only me
it was never only me

My Little Sister is a Dragon
My little sister is a dragon
But she doesn't have a tail
There's no fire breathing
Well, it's hidden by a veil.
She sort of does breath fire
just not really
Her words are the flames
Sometimes burning, sometimes chilly.
Her claws are her small hands
They scratch and hit
Her fury does not go unreleased
Her personality is split
My little sister is a dragon
Watch her wings unfurl
but only in a metaphorical kind of way
Because she's just a pre-teen girl.
But she doesn't have a tail
There's no fire breathing
Well, it's hidden by a veil.
She sort of does breath fire
just not really
Her words are the flames
Sometimes burning, sometimes chilly.
Her claws are her small hands
They scratch and hit
Her fury does not go unreleased
Her personality is split
My little sister is a dragon
Watch her wings unfurl
but only in a metaphorical kind of way
Because she's just a pre-teen girl.
