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.
Burning bridges
Life is a river in darkness;
Loved ones are bridges of light.
If you keep burning them down;
You'll soon find yourself alone in the dark.
Loved ones are bridges of light.
If you keep burning them down;
You'll soon find yourself alone in the dark.

Elephant necklace
Elephants symbolize a strength that is endless;
Maybe thats why my grandma gave me that necklace.
She believed in me with all her heart;
Yet I still continue to tear myself apart.
I wish so desperately;
That I could find the light she always saw in me.

Noises
It takes noise to appreciate the silence
and silence to appreciate the noise.

Death and snowflakes
The second I heard my moms voice on the phone I knew something was wrong,
It was as if my heart stopped beating for a second and my whole body followed along.
I was so angry at god for a moment it felt like my blood was boiling and despite the chilly wind blowling the snow on to myskin I was sweating.
I could'nt process it all, I went outside and I couldn't tell if the my body was too hot for the snowflakes or if my frozen state of mind was melting.
It hurt to see the world go on as a life wasn't ending.
I realized that no matter what the world will...

"Never giving but always taking"
What is left for me?
I give and I give.
You need a hand, I hold mine out to you.
You need someone to listen I sit in silence as you vent about your life.
You need to hear a voice so I sit and talk you through your anxious thoughts.
You need someone to show your passionate pieces of art to I am there and complimenting all the hard work you put in.
You need the truth I am there and never lie.
You need someone to dry your eyes I am there with my shoulder while you cry.
Now that I'm at a low you just look...
I give and I give.
You need a hand, I hold mine out to you.

"What am I filling my lungs with?"
For years I've given you everything, so what have I been filling my lungs with if I've been giving you all my oxygen?
I've been giving you all my light just to make sure you never have to know what it's like to live in darkness.

"Left with nothing"
They say just let it go,
But they don't know;
Its more then just demons in my head
it's going to take more than a laullaby to put them to bed.
I close my eyes and try to calm down my racing heart,
I no longer hear the laullaby just the demons screams tearing me apart.
I try to find peace but verytime I try to sing,
The demons start to scream again making my ears ring.
But they don't know;

"Hey alice how is wonderland?"
For years you doubted me and said I was making it all up,
but now that you've fallen down this depression hole too;
you apoligize and expect me to believe you.
"So, hey alice how is wonderland?"
Every where you look you see bottles tempting you to drink,
and every where you turn you find strange creatures and feelings that make you stop and think.
"So, hey alice how is wonderland?"
You discover substances and try them attempting to numb the pain,
Now you cry so much it's like drowning in the rain.

I need help
Will someone call the exterminator?
My brain has been infested by demons!
Or maybe I just need a priest.
Will someone call a doctor?
My heart beat is fading.
Or maybe I just need to turn to god and start praying.
Will someone call an electrician?
My soul has lost its light and i'm consumed by darkness.
Or maybe I should just see a therapist.
