Poet Introduction
I'm back!
Thinking of her
Sitting here thinking about you
Its a thing to do
Shes become imprinted on me
We could never be
Theres a lifetime that separates us
Nothing to discuss
But the heart wants what it wants
Still theres no response
I feel happiness again when we talk
I Watch the clock
Minutes turn to hours waiting for the ringtone
Put down the phone
Youre not for her and she could never be yours
On opposite shores
Your darkness would blot out her light
Shes day, you're night
...

Minutes turn to hours waiting for the ringtone
Put down the phone
Youre not for her and she could never be yours
On opposite shores
Your darkness would blot out her light
Shes day, you're night

f**k you!
18 years and i never turned my back on you
As far as your side, now we're at number two
8 months you went behind my back and fucked another dude
I came back and stayed when i found out you got pregnant too
Im not perfect I had faults I admit it
But even with the proof you still tried to say you didn't
I should have walked
Instead we talked
And somehow I convinced you to stay
I took the blame for you treating me that way
I cried.... not for me but for you
For the terrible thing that I made you do
Can you imagine...

Ramblings Of The Walking Dead
These moments of silence are torture. Im so sick of being alone. I want human interaction. I want someone to talk to and look at me and see me. This lonliness consumes me. I feel alone no matter how many people are around. I dont know what to do anymore. I can't keep feeling like this forever. This darkness that has been with me since my childhood. I want it to end. I set myself up constantly for disappointment by putting my trust and faith in people. They always let me down. Does anyone really care about me. If i died would it have an effect on anyones life? I dont think anyones life would...

A Diary Excerpt
Dear diary,
Im laying in bed and I cant block out the voices. Im tired and i want to sleep. So im going to get them out. I think it is better to just go back to feeling numb. I cant handle these feelings and emotions. They are just so extreme and so unrelenting.
These past couple weeks talking to *redacted* and opening up on a level I never have before has been an absolute roller coaster. I have come face to face with my demons. I have felt a lot of things that I haven't since I was a child. Its caused me to realize a lot about myself but its also made my fears,...

A sample of love
The sound of your voice brings me peace in my core
Pulls me back from the edge and Im lonely no more
Your eyes are like windows to the beauty i adore
Your heart has a tender kindness I have never felt before
You have a smile that can chase away the doubt and fear
The brightness of your essence makes me want you always near
The completeness of your love makes my insecurities disappear
The stormy clouds roll back and your love makes my skies clear
A simple touch from you sends a tingle from head to toe
A hug feels like home, I never...

It doesn't matter
I would tell you how i feel
But it doesn't matter
To be here in this moment
But it doesn't matter
To feel like my heart is being torn from my chest
But it doesn't matter
To be screaming on the inside not wanting to experience this death
But it doesn't matter
I could tell you how much you sharing your life with me has meant
But it doesn't matter
How the thought of living without you feels like a fate worse than death
But it doesn't matter
I can reveal to you that I am scared moreso than I have ever been in my life
But it doesn't...

Where are you now?
I need to find you
And since I am sharing
Im losing my mind too
Dont know why I wake up
My lifes spiraling down
Im missing the one that can turn it around
I pushed you aside
I built up a wall
To protect myself
From the pain of the fall
Are you still there?
Starved from not being fed?
If I tear down this wall would i find you there dead?
I don't deserve it
But could use you right now
The way I treated you
Can you forgive me somehow?
Cuz I'm struggling...

Embrace the solitude
Always wanting more and never getting it
Following your heart and you keep regretting it
Leads you to disappointment and you keep letting it
Never won a hand but you keep betting it
all...taking chances hoping someone will stay true
Making excuses for every hurtful thing they do
If you love them hard enough they cant help but love you
can't love yourself so you find someone else to give it to
Putting them on a pedestal they can't help but fall from
It's so dumb
But your mind's numb
There's the beat of a drum
In your chest

An unwinnable game
Im in love with someone who doesn't feel the same
I wish that it would go as quickly as it came
I dont want to play this unwinnable game
Why the fuck did love put me in its aim
I felt happy and alive and now its just an ache
Was cutting off from her the right move to make
Was having her close something i could take
Either way i still feel a heartbreak
I miss her intensely she stays on my mind
And i know that its something that will take some time
I want time with her but its not fates design
Id learn how to love right, for...

Still she loves
Still she loves...
The world has been unkind. Shes been taught the lesson her whole life that she is somehow less. A constant barrage of criticism and judgement by men, the media and even other women. Every time she looks in the mirror she is reminded of all her imperfections and all the places where she lacks. She's been beaten and abused. She's been taken advantage of and taken for granted. She's been an afterthought. Shes stood in someone else's shadow. She's been underappreciated. She's been stripped of her voice and her choice. In spite of all that, she loves. She loves...

Something we never were
I want her so bad that its causing me pain
So i walk away but the feelings remain
My life feels like there is only the rain
Her blue skies is what I'm trying to gain
But i have nothing to offer except scars and trauma
I know when she thinks of me all she sees is the drama
Shes everything that I've been looking for
Shes made me want to open every closed door
Shes trying to be a good friend but I'm wanting more
Cuz i feel like my heart she can restore
I want to know how it feels to have her im my arms
To be fully in...
