POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Movement Is Needed
What is it before me that I dare see?
Why must it be objectified before me as I watch?
Surely there are others whose view must match mine?
If not, then they shall not die
Nothing wrong with a good or bad point of view.
Opinions they all are at the end, even mine.
Truthful, many call me. Yet I despise the word so.
Labels placed upon me as if they dare to see I.
Opinions of oneself is the hardest to verify, for one might only see the bad inside.
Agreeing to see good for those few or many or none but I, might prove to be a task that none can pass by. ...

Never Stop Your Chase For Me
You were here - not in place, but in heart
You were here - never in contact, but in words
You were here - for you to comfort me, and me to you
You were here - never to hold, but to dream together
You were here - not within a body, but a screen
You were here - even though you were far
You were here - just because of me
I was there - of admiration at first, but then your promise
I was there - I needed a hand, and yours slipped right in
I was there - lost in this world until I found your light
I was there - despite the distance, because you...

Quiet Tears
I do not know why I am like this
But I can cry and I cannot cry.
I cry due to pain
due to stress
due to emotional duress
due to loss (i think)
But when sadness overcomes me
filling me up from a pinch
to a truckload
I cannot cry
When that overbearing emotion comes to me
it aches my heart
it makes my breathe more stiff
it makes my lungs crack
it causes me such pain
yet I cannot react
I will fall to my knees onto the ground
and wonder why
why no tears are leaving my eyes
and that’s...

Oh, My sweet Delusions
Oh, how the mind loves to play tricks.
Oh, how we love to play along.
Oh, how easily we are swayed by ourselves.
Oh, and at such a young age.
Oh, but with age comes wisdom.
Oh, so we resist all we can.
Oh, lucky for most.
Oh, alas not for some.
Oh, for some our mind continues to play.
Oh, and unlike the many we don’t lock it up.
Oh, not of choice at first.
Oh, but of the dread of being quiet inside.
Oh, then of choice at second.
Oh, and then our mind sets off.
Oh, how beautiful it is at first.
Oh, and how disastrously...

Another Haunted House
Into the state of Shock
In a neighborhood that is full
If you take a left turn
And enter the cul-de-sac
Of houses completely forged
With stories of their own
If you keep going
Forward and forward
Then you take a look to your right
You will see it
A yard with a busted down mailbox
A driveway full of weeds and vines
And the iron fence that is decaying like flesh
In the center of the lawn
Right between the front and back yard
Is the house
A not so normal house
Entering the premises is easy
To the point of...

The Child That Was Gray
It all started with a child
Born from pure innocence
But hated by the angels
And loved by the demons
God sees good in the child
Devil doesn’t even know of the child
Angels plotted of ways to get rid of him
Demons protected him with all they have
This child
Now three years of age
Is what started the war of Heaven against Hell
However his war had no casualties
No angels fell
No demons slaughtered
For that child
Now at five years of age
Blocked the path of war
Just by standing on the Line
Between Death...

A Little Fox
Ever heard the lore?
The one that told of more?
More to it than Religious Gods
More than the Creator of All
More than the All Seeing Eye
More than even Him who is above
Listen to me
Or listen to me not
Completely up to you
The exit is very simple to find anyways
In this Lore
If you heard of
Or have not
Foxes follow Gods
Not by belief
But physically
They just chase the God they like
A Fox is many symbols
Yet only a few are positive
A Fox is considered a relic to a God
And sometimes even a God!...

I have a twin, and no matter what I do, she always blames me for things that goes wrong in the house, it's not my fault everyone thinks she did it, like one day our pet cat was killed and placed in our room, they all pointed fingers at her, and they wouldn't believe her at all when she pointed the finger at me. Then one day all the windows were broken except for ours, they blamed her, she blamed me, they didn't believe her, and that's how it has been for many many days, they blamed her, she blamed me, they didn't believe her. Yesterday the whole house was trashed and paint was thrown all...

You can’t Train me!
So this is how it goes
Me, an atheist
Who believes in every religion
But follows none
I follow my own believes
So I am considered an atheist
I am ok with that
But when stating this fact
To a single Christian
(Who ironically
Is also named Christian)
He attempts to make me see
The religious ways of his
Conversation is one thing
Convertation is another
And I get sick of this!
My sexual orientation is who I am
Yet when I mention this
To that same Christian named boy
He says right off the bat ...

Lost with a GPS
We are all directionally challenged
We hold onto a GPS
The settings are different from others however
There are no arrows or lines
Only words
No Left or Right
Up or Down
Behind or Front
Just the words
“I am ____”
These two words are the most strongest
We can have an occupation in the blank
An emotion
Mental illness or Disease
Our inner child
Or our outer adult
Our race
Our Sexual orientation
Our age
Our name
Our everything
Even our abuse
And there can be multiple “I am”s
So...

What do these days have in common?
Same Year
Same Month
Same 20 Date
Many similarities if you think about them
However what do these days mean?
Birthdays, Events, and etc etc etc
To me ...
These were the days I thought I was going to die
No tragedy happened, mind you
No secret plot
No second meaning
Nothing Religion Related
Simply, it is the way I thought
March 28 of 2018
The Date that was chosen when I was 10 to 12

Adam (the real story)
Adam
Who he is
Is something in my head
Schizophrenia
That is what they call it
I see many others
I hear them call
Whenever they want to talk
I talk as well
"Ignore them
That is what you have to do
Think of them as a dream
A dream where you are sleeping
A very deep sleep
And they keep you there to never wake up"
Is what my doctor said
Dr. Adam Hater
He hates Adam
I won't ignore them
I won't even try
I have known them since I was born
They are always at my side
They give good advice ...
