Poet Introduction
Swallowing gulps of dead water. Arms swinging, Legs kicking. Tears leaking into the black, A dying wish to live.

I Got Out For My Reasons.
I can imagine your expression, as I see you again.
The flickering hate and betrayal,
Contrasting the longing hope for my return.
I don't want to be in the position,
Stuck between family and being blood loyal.
I still remember our adventures,
The heart pumping chaos mixing with adrenaline.
We grinned in the face of trouble,
Created terror in the streets we strolled.
But when I came home,
I faced heartbreak and abandonment.
I was detaching myself from anyone; Everyone.
Forming into a monster,
Emotions and feelings just leaking...
The flickering hate and betrayal,
Contrasting the longing hope for my return.
I don't want to be in the position,
Stuck between family and being blood loyal.
I still remember our adventures,
The heart pumping chaos mixing with adrenaline.
We grinned in the face of trouble,

But when I came home,

Skyla..(Not A Poem)..
Before I met you,
I didn't trust others.
Before I met you,
It was hard for me to share my poetry.
Before I met you,
I was distant and cold.
Before I met you,
I didn't know any other poets.
..
But now,
I have a little sister I always dreamed of.
But now,
You make me smile.
But now,
I'm beginning to trust and you opened that sewed wound.
But now,
I have a little sister poet,
I love,
I protect,
And I'll always be there for.
My Little Sister Skyla.
I didn't trust others.
Before I met you,

I won't give in.
It's the puddle on my pillow,
The sting in my dull eyes.
I hold in the anger, I hold in the pain.
Slip on the mask,
Used so many years.
Held back tears manage to drip,
As the numbness spreads.
I want to be invincible,
To stand and protect you.
Shadows make their way,
The need to hide overwhelming.
Fighting this strung out battle too long.
Smile at my Ma,
And wait until I'm alone.
Strong when I'm needed; Required.
Weeping in a sorrow pile when heads turn.
A cycle that twists and weaves, ...
The sting in my dull eyes.
I hold in the anger, I hold in the pain.
Slip on the mask,
Used so many years.
Held back tears manage to drip,
As the numbness spreads.
I want to be invincible,
To stand and protect you.
Shadows make their way,
The need to hide overwhelming.
Fighting this strung out battle too long.
Smile at my Ma,
And wait until I'm alone.
Strong when I'm needed; Required.
Weeping in a sorrow pile when heads turn.
A cycle that twists and weaves, ...

My Chaos.
Listen to the town kids,
Laughing and smiling.
Every day it gets darker,
The small hope flickering; Reshaping.
Every one walks around blind.
Wish for understanding,
On your knees, crying for comfort.
Watch as the oblivious become the ignorant.
Form your solid lone bubble,
Escape from the insanity.
As the skys shade over,
The chaos rains down.
Screaming and shouting,
Helpless pleas of distant,
Unreachable hope.
Cry for the young,
Cry for the wary.
Cry because it's gone.
Laughing and smiling.
Every day it gets darker,
The small hope flickering; Reshaping.
Every one walks around blind.
Wish for understanding,
On your knees, crying for comfort.
Watch as the oblivious become the ignorant.
Form your solid lone bubble,
Escape from the insanity.
As the skys shade over,
The chaos rains down.
Screaming and shouting,
Helpless pleas of distant,
Unreachable hope.
Cry for the young,
Cry for the wary.
Cry because it's gone.

First Love.
I think about your brown eyes,
As I drift off into my unknown.
I doubt what I've done,
What I could have done.
My chest tightens and silently pleads,
To hear your voice again.
I remember how we left it,
You watching me from that broken driveway,
As I pulled away on that long forgotten road.
I can still feel tear tracks falling,
And sobs controlling my chest.
I miss the promising words whispered,
I wish for the tight hold.
You were my first love;
You are my first love.
I've tried to make you fade.
But you pop...
As I drift off into my unknown.
I doubt what I've done,
What I could have done.
My chest tightens and silently pleads,
To hear your voice again.
I remember how we left it,
You watching me from that broken driveway,
As I pulled away on that long forgotten road.
I can still feel tear tracks falling,
And sobs controlling my chest.
I miss the promising words whispered,
I wish for the tight hold.
You were my first love;
You are my first love.

Those Days.
It's days like this,
Where my smile is real.
My insides tickle,
And the sky brightens oh so slightly.
Reminds me of the reason,
My reason.
Why I still breathe in the cold stale air,
When everything's going to shit.
Every so seldom you sneak in,
You break the hand made walls,
Pull me back to my feet.
Feel the human clawing at the bars,
Almost free; So close.
The tears are of joy,
I can nearly reach.
And at this point,
It's fight or flight..
Where my smile is real.
My insides tickle,
And the sky brightens oh so slightly.
Reminds me of the reason,
My reason.
Why I still breathe in the cold stale air,
When everything's going to shit.
Every so seldom you sneak in,
You break the hand made walls,
Pull me back to my feet.
Feel the human clawing at the bars,
Almost free; So close.
The tears are of joy,
I can nearly reach.
And at this point,
It's fight or flight..

My War, Our War
Walk down the worn street,
Watch as the kids get shot.
I know some of them,
I knew some of them.
Shake in anger as the torn families cry,
As the grown men wallow in tears.
Meet in our usual place, our haven.
Hold each other as another falls,
As another never breathes again.
The streets we walk, the streets we live,
Our personal war.
Watch as the kids get shot.
I know some of them,
I knew some of them.
Shake in anger as the torn families cry,
As the grown men wallow in tears.
Meet in our usual place, our haven.
Hold each other as another falls,
As another never breathes again.
The streets we walk, the streets we live,
Our personal war.

Ma.
I watch as you suffer,
As you lay in bed almost dead.
You hide your tears,
As if I'll judge you.
Alcohol pouring down your cracked lips,
The only 'medicine' you will swallow.
Stumble with the steps,
And scream with your kids.
Ignore the pleading, the emotional bleeding.
I'll hold back your cigarette burnt hair,
As the Whiskey and Vodka resurface.
Rub your back as you grip the filthy toilet,
And your hidden years old tears drip and drop.
Always be the solid rock,
Holding you here,
Keeping you with us today, tomorrow....
As you lay in bed almost dead.
You hide your tears,
As if I'll judge you.
Alcohol pouring down your cracked lips,
The only 'medicine' you will swallow.
Stumble with the steps,
And scream with your kids.
Ignore the pleading, the emotional bleeding.
I'll hold back your cigarette burnt hair,
As the Whiskey and Vodka resurface.
Rub your back as you grip the filthy toilet,
And your hidden years old tears drip and drop.
Always be the solid rock,
Holding you here,
Keeping you with us today, tomorrow....

Just Another Day.
Feel the burn of Vodka pour;
Feel the welcoming sting from the cigarette.
Tears leaking,
I told myself it wouldn't be like this anymore.
Fists bleeding,
I hold back the pain.
Watch as the dead dried leaves blow away.
Listen to the constant bickering,
Ears no longer able to deaf it out.
Loosing grip on reality,
Loosing grip on my sanity.
Lay back on the grass,
And wish for a miracle.
Taking after a monster,
Growing into something I no longer recognize.
Something I can't face in the dull eyes,
Reflecting...
Feel the welcoming sting from the cigarette.
Tears leaking,
I told myself it wouldn't be like this anymore.
Fists bleeding,
I hold back the pain.
Watch as the dead dried leaves blow away.
Listen to the constant bickering,
Ears no longer able to deaf it out.
Loosing grip on reality,
Loosing grip on my sanity.
Lay back on the grass,
And wish for a miracle.
Taking after a monster,
Growing into something I no longer recognize.
Something I can't face in the dull eyes,

Alone And Surrounded
Clouded by rushing buzzing.
Eyes clutched shut,
Arms tight around.
Sharp drops sliding; falling.
Throat raw from the echoing screams,
Cheeks salty and blotchy.
Wrapped in coats of darkness,
Sewn together.
Rocking between the cracks,
Of insanity and lonely.
Fear wrenching;
Twisting the insides.
No hope,
No light.
Green orbs fading blue.
Razored nails drawing blood,
Begging for comfort.
An endless circle surrounding.
Taunting, haunting.
Mindless chattering bangs against the black.
Ugly smiles hiding...
Eyes clutched shut,
Arms tight around.
Sharp drops sliding; falling.
Throat raw from the echoing screams,
Cheeks salty and blotchy.
Wrapped in coats of darkness,
Sewn together.
Rocking between the cracks,
Of insanity and lonely.
Fear wrenching;
Twisting the insides.
No hope,
No light.
Green orbs fading blue.
Razored nails drawing blood,
Begging for comfort.
An endless circle surrounding.
Taunting, haunting.
Mindless chattering bangs against the black.

Love
Blinking past the tears,
Ignoring the already wet trails.
This was the end.
Felt as if the shadows carried sinister smiles,
And their clawed fingers tore into my sides.
Dragging me away; dragging me down.
Fell in love with your dimples.
Yet the further I end up,
The more you show deception.
Loved the way you shied away,
But now I can't even get you to say hello.
Fell for danger.
But my tears and bloody wounds,
Show the standing, breathing girl.
I will survive; I can survive.
It's a competition,
Almost like reality and...
Ignoring the already wet trails.
This was the end.
Felt as if the shadows carried sinister smiles,
And their clawed fingers tore into my sides.
Dragging me away; dragging me down.
Fell in love with your dimples.
Yet the further I end up,
The more you show deception.
Loved the way you shied away,
But now I can't even get you to say hello.
Fell for danger.
But my tears and bloody wounds,
Show the standing, breathing girl.
I will survive; I can survive.

Protector
Stood on unsteady feet,
Stood in front of them.
Facing my threats,
Taking their dangers.
I stand to protect.
Under my wing,
In my heart.
Tears held back with anger.
Arms spread wide,
Blood dripping.
My heart stops beating,
Before you get through me.
Born with this disease.
Red pulsing,
Smile seeking those seeking.
Born to protect.
Stood in front of them.
Facing my threats,
Taking their dangers.
I stand to protect.
Under my wing,
In my heart.
Tears held back with anger.
Arms spread wide,
Blood dripping.
My heart stops beating,
Before you get through me.
Born with this disease.
Red pulsing,
Smile seeking those seeking.
Born to protect.
