POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hello. Poetry is one of the ways I’m best at communicating. All the poems I write are from personal experiences and battles I’ve gone through. I hope to relate to and or inspire readers.
Dangling images like a web of lies
I sat back and watched the lies scattered cross the
room like a spider web.
Spreading like a fire,
But dangling imaginary visions in front of me like
a spider....
Suddenly my head is spinning.
Heart, body, mind and soul at war.
But, what am I fighting for?
Some how I feel clueless,
But It's familiar because I've been through this
over and over again.
I may not know what love is,
But I know it isn't suppose to break me.

The little girl within me...
Sometimes I feel like I am just a lost little girl
in a fucked up world.
My mind is so cluddered,
you'd think I'm a hoarder.
I'm an over thinker,
I guess you would blame it on
posttraumatic stress disorder.
Under the assumption that
she just wanted attention,
you decided to ignore her.
You failed to realize that somebody,
somewhere would fucking adore her!

I'm still hurting...
I am a human being.
I wear my heart on my sleeve,
I often get taken advantage of by greed.
People with needs they cannot fulfill themselves.
While I put my own feelings up on a shelf.
Despite spending years in a loop,
where I was constantly drowning
and saving my self.
So sick of this shit.
Remember that Nice little girl,
that used to take every hit.
I remember Every single bit of it.
Every lie and manipulation tactic.

What is the future?
How daunting it is to think about my future.
As I grew up,
I imagined my death so often that I never really had
a future.
I had minutes, hours, sometimes days,
but never years.
I know that seems strange,
but when your present becomes so overwhelming
that your dreams of being a princess, turn into
simply just being happy.
All the things money could never buy.
Leaving even myself asking why?
But as time went by and so many loved ones had
come and...

Silence can be louder than words
I'm sorry I haven't been the greatest company lately.
I have thoughts in my head,
That are driving me crazy.
I am Sick to my stomach,
I'm feeling so weak.
So much at once.
I cannot speak,
Or think
Or breathe.
How do I breathe?
In.
and out.
In
and out.
Here I go again.
Down this fucking rabbit hole,
Jokes are not always funny,
Sometimes you're just
playing a fool in a funny hat.
Like the cat said,
We're all mad here.
But...

Walking on the pieces of me
Little me,
Once innocent and her heart was whole,
Searched high and low
for a place to call
home.
She was alone with her
thoughts,
but they were never
empty.
Like Humpty Dumpty,
She climbed the wall.
She took a chance and
risked it all.
Suddenly she started to
fall.
Years have gone by,
and I'm still trying to
put the pieces back

Allowing myself to be free
There were times she felt like she was withering away, little by little day by day. Much like a flower drowning in the rain. Her tears seemed to fill the room.
She was fine, everyone would assume.
But they all knew about the things she'd do to herself, in her room.
When everything became too much,
to her skin with razors she touched.
Her thoughts echoed all around, it was all she heard, not a single sound.
She often dreamt of better days, happier times in a better place.
She'd always pray for a kinder head space.

I found myself when they left
You found some body new.
I found somebody too.
The spirit that you crushed when you walked out the door.
The broken little girl you left cying on the floor.
The woman who deserved the world, but you don’t love her anymore.
The pretty little flower you never had time to water.
“It’s already dead so why would you bother.”
Don’t say that you’re sorry cuz I wouldn’t believe you.
Don’t ever come back cuz I’ll never need you.
I spent all my time picking up the pieces that you left behind.

Dissociation
I lost conciseness,
but I was still awake.
It wasn’t really me.
I wasn’t really there.
I remember watching,
but I wasn’t in control.
I was lost inside my mind.
Nothing could make me feel more alone.
but I was still awake.
It wasn’t really me.

I remember watching,
but I wasn’t in control.
I was lost inside my mind.
Nothing could make me feel more alone.

The webs you weave
Tears flooded my face,
as I watched you walk away.
Everything changed that day.
As I closed the door,
gripping the handle as my knuckles turned white.
I didn’t sleep at all that night.
In fact I can’t remember the last time I felt well rested,
the pain has always persisted.
I tried to convince myself of my worth,
but I was lost and the demons insisted,
on a different solution.
When you left I was drowning in the pollution of it all.
I never felt so small.

Misunderstood black bird
I am a black bird.
I am misunderstood.
They say you will never fly.
But I’ve seen the sky before.
They say you will only fall,
But I’ve gotten up before.
I can do anything.
I have my own wings.
So I’m cutting your strings.
You never believed that a black bird like me,
could fly.
But watch and learn,
because some day I will soar through the sky.

More than meets the eye
I might be a bright star in the darkness of night,
but I’m dying while you only see the light.
There’s more to me than meets the eye.
I might be a flower beautiful and sweet,
but that doesn’t mean I’ve never felt defeated.
I might be a mountain of rocks standing tall,
and you might assume I’ve never felt small.
But I’ve seen rock bottom.
I felt it all.
I might be an ocean crashing against the shore,
and you’d think I’ve never drowned before.
But inside me there are predators,
like I’m fighting a...
