Poet Introduction
Writing has always been therapeutic for me, somewhere I could always turn to. This has helped me be who I am and live with my scars.

New Safe Place
One step forward, two steps back
it's never enough, there's always something I lack
Give and give until there's nothing left
losing pieces of myself I should have kept
Not recognizing myself is my biggest fear
more falls away and I feel that point is near
The point of no return, leaving only a ghost
my soul lost, a bleeding heart resides within a dead host
Cut off from that which resembles or induces peace
my mind in overdrive, a tornado that will never cease
It feels as if the world is closing in
crushed by my failures and my...

Day by Day
You have a place on my sleeves
but wait for those close and loved to leave
My heart so weak to those who intrude
I'm soft is the thing most allude
I take people into my heart
then it hurts to be apart
All the people I miss
especially those I kiss
Losing a love feels like a rip somewhere inside
so much disbelief then the crushing pain, so much, I cried
But, oh, when the love is new
oh, wow, how sweet it was that my body knew
My heart, for once, so light
big brown eyes sparkling so bright
My soft, puffy...

Best for Me
All the lies
and goodbyes
I knew there were more
a real family, I've longed for
But this will never be
it's something you'll never see
See how you treat me, see how it breaks
we build something and see how it shakes
We start stacking up the blocks
rebuilding, trying to turn back the clocks
Not erasing everything we've done
instead mending each and every one
Ruining everything, you get in the way
you stand on the tracks with too much to say
About how I'm heartless and should treat you better
remember the...

What Hurts the Most
White scary walls everywhere I go
sitting by his bedside we're waiting to know
How badly his body is hurting him believe me I do mind
the key to his recovery we've been wanting to find
Blaming ourselves for not seeing this sooner
to soothe our minds I wish for a piano crooner
Scared for his life a memory is conjured this instant
to the here and now that memory seems so distant
But here it comes to me in the blink of an eye
I'm there saying this has to be goodbye
We can't go on like this any longer
ending this will make us both...

Sealed in Time
Now my days start with one thought
that sometime soon we'll be caught
Living this terrible way
convincing myself i have no say
When I found out you have a wife
I realized I'm not your everything, not your life
Everything has become a safety issue
driving me to need so much more than a tissue
Drugs to quiet my conscience
my guilt grows in defiance
Why am I doing this to myself, to you
when, already, I know this forever isn't true
It's inevitable, this has an end
I feel it, like a change in the wind
Something you...

An Unseen Battle
Personal battles you've never known or seen
You're okay but you're not, what does that even mean?
Personal battles you fight everyday
You're a warrior but they have no idea what to say
I am someone's tragedy in your eyes
There's no compassion in your lies
You say you'll be here no matter how bad it will get
They try but they lie; they're really asking when you'll get over it
They will ask why you never told them
And where these trust issues stem
For your silence they'll blame you
And not being able to deal...
You're okay but you're not, what does that even mean?
Personal battles you fight everyday
You're a warrior but they have no idea what to say
I am someone's tragedy in your eyes
There's no compassion in your lies

They try but they lie; they're really asking when you'll get over it
They will ask why you never told them
And where these trust issues stem
For your silence they'll blame you
And not being able to deal...

Laid to Rest
All these numbers echo in my head
Deciding what the cost is when I'm put to bed
These never ending trials as I'm put to the test
My things left behind who among you can be the best
These accidents, unstable, chaos will be your end
The demons, the angels who want your head, I send
To take you to the ashes, the fire for you to tend
Your morality, your psyche i will bend
With the darkness, the tortures, the embers fly
To this terrible place, you'll never say goodbye
Deciding what the cost is when I'm put to bed
These never ending trials as I'm put to the test
My things left behind who among you can be the best
These accidents, unstable, chaos will be your end
The demons, the angels who want your head, I send
To take you to the ashes, the fire for you to tend
Your morality, your psyche i will bend
With the darkness, the tortures, the embers fly
To this terrible place, you'll never say goodbye

Goodbye
The days since
have been dense
Rocky mountains we have gone through
but I'll always want to be with you
The dark days were among us
there is no need to make a fuss
Being friends just became too hard
this broken heart will always be scarred
Is this goodbye?
for I must cry
A million tears to rest aside
for us I have always tried
To make everything better
so I wrote you a letter
Maybe you would remember to smile
even just for a little while
The world I would give
or my life, yes, the one I live
To see...
