POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
the "new old" life
I'm back again, but I'm not home.
Left my family by choice to go to my split family back here.
I come home but my family leaves, we are not together
Not a real family.
I don't belong here.
Never have, never will.
It's like a shadow hanging over me,
No one here understands me.
I came home with hopes of it being right
but as always I'm left broken hearted when they leave.
She lasted a day with me before my sister once again left,
no way to find her, we are all left here wondering.
I don't think I've ever felt this bad,
before I...

Saying good-bye.
Who knew saying bye was this hard?
Just thinking about it makes me cry here in the dark.
10 months has passed by and now the time is here
10 months feels like 10 minutes, not long enough for you to be near
Tears form when I see you,
promises fly away
looking back I wish it didn't have to be this way.
Why did we get this close,
Why do i have to leave,
I wish nothing more than for you to follow me.
You are my one,
I hope I'm yours.
Not wanting to say bye,
I sit here in the dark fighting tears
I do my best to write...

Is it Worth It?
What should I do?
Should I put myself out there again, just hoping my heart won't be broken again?
is the pain of losing worth the joy of having?
So many questions, so few answers. I don't know what to do about it, are you worth it?

How fast time goes by
Sitting here thinking only 9 short months ago I was sitting on an airport at home
Wondering what was to come
Feeling excited but also so scared,
what if i ended up going nowhere?
The year of my life right in front of me,
how would I act, how would it be?
Sitting here thinking 9 months back,
I get a smile and say i don't want this to end, don't make me go back
But graduation's so close and that means this comes to an end
the year of my dreams that I got to attend.
Everyone's counting down the days till schools out, me?
I don't want to...

When the pain comes
The pain hits me just as hard, even though its been forever. I think back and the only thing I regret is giving you a chance, looking back I know I should have listened to my friends about how you were, but I was blinded on what I believed was love but look how wrong I was. You turned out to be everything my friends said you were and more, I hope I never have to see you again you cheating idiot, but in a way I'm happy this is how things turned out.
The experience made me stronger, harder and even though I still give a boy a chance, I can proudly say that I no longer expect them to behave...

This is me
Im the strong one in my group of friends, I'm the go-to person if you are having a hard time. I mask my feelings, put me aside for my friends, keep thinking they are more important.
But when I let go, I really let go, I break down for weeks, and then rebuild my wall, when all I really want to is to let it all go and let my wall stay down. That is when I feel the lightest, but I also feel vulnerable, like people can break me down and cut me to pieces.
I let my wall go, lift of my gorilla, I feel so light and for a moment, if only a split-second, then the vulnerability comes in....

I'm in pain, but no one sees me.
I'm in pain, but no one cares.
I don't know what to do, what is wrong with me?
Why can't I get over it like everyone else?
My life is dissolving in front of me.
Why can't I make the decision, the only decision I want to make.
It should be easy, pill or knife?

Pill or Knife
Pill or knife?
What should I choose?
The knife is quick, but the pill gives less pain.
How can I overcome this pain?
People keep telling me its mental, that I just need to get over it, but thats not what I want to do.
I don't want to get over it, I don't want to accept that he is gone, that it is all over.
