POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
My name is Olliver
My name is Olliver.
No one ever hears my holler,
when my daddy makes me bruise.
I don't fight back,
because I know I'll lose.
No one cares,
I'm the reason of the laughs they share.
I try to fit in,
but they act
as if I'm the ultimate sin.
It's not much of a shocker,
but they're all mockers.
Why can't anyone see,
everything that happens to me?!
I know I'm not alone in this world,
but it's all so lonely, dry, and cold.
There are people worse off than me.
I tell myself and try to believe.
My friend...

Whatever you want..
I need a little time
to think things over.
I want things to be right
but no we're over.
Whenever I was crying
your tears rang dry.
Whenever I was dying
your heart soared high.
I wish we could
restart anew
but I know I would
if I knew the real you.
I tell you my name
you tell me a lie.
I say you aren't the same
you tell me go die.
I answer your request
with one slice
and now I finally rest
safe from your heart of ice.

My love
I love you.
I love the sound of your voice.
I love the way it sounds when you're tired.
I love when you tell me you love me.
I love when you say it's just for me.
I love when you think of me.
I love that I'm always on your mind.
I love that you're always on mine.
You are the last thought I have before I go to sleep.
The first thought I have every morning.
I dream about you.
I close my eyes and wish you were here with me.
I love that you are mine.
I love that no one will ever change us.
I promise myself to you.
I promise I will never...

The realization of the world
How do you make someone see what they are to you?
Do you force it?
Or do you explain it?
They see themselves as someone they could never be.
They never realize just how perfect they are.
They don't see how much people need them.
It hurts to not be able to explain to someone how beautiful they are,
how smart or how perfect they are.
But you see there are so many that think they are perfect.
That they are better than everyone.
But to me you are perfect.
Because you see your own faults.
You shouldn't be ashamed of them.
Be proud of what they...

Better without
it felt so wrong
it felt so right
i knew it wasnt meant to be
how could you do this to me
i thought you loved me
but i see you dont care
i thought you were like him
i thought you were right
but now i can see you were so wrong
just like i was
but you see...im not picky..
to me you are just a stand in for him
for all that he was to me
i know you couldnt come close
but i thought you might work
of course everything i want goes wrong
i felt that he was perfect
that he was the one
the one that everyone talks about
my other...

realize
the moon and the stars
how beautiful they are
you and your eyes
as blue as the midnight sky
such a beautiful blue
that hides such a daring truth
we care bout you
why cant you see that it is true
you know they would be so lost without you
i know you feel left out
you think no one cares about you
but that isn't true
i want you to see
all that you can be
you make everyone happy
you never realize it though

You
i want to know
i want to see
all that you can be
i want to tell you
what everyone sees
i want you to know what you can be
you don't realize what you are
you don't realize what you can do
you are unsure and unaware
but everyone loves you
this is true
you ignore it though
everyone adores you
your voice makes their eyes feel moist
your touch makes their blood rush
everyone is stuck to you like glue
i love the way you love the rain
i know they say it all the time
its just a feeling it will pass
but you know it wont...

distance
the distance measures strength
the heart feels the strain
my thoughts hear the pain
but my eyes feel the tears
my ears hear my screams
my nightmares are my dreams
my smile hides the truth but
my scars show for all who wish to
see my hidden knife that tells
my story with my blood on its blade
my final note and words
that are all about him
how much i love him
how much i care
how much pain i felt
with your cold final stare
the heart feels the strain
my thoughts hear the pain
but my eyes feel the tears
my ears hear my screams
my nightmares are my dreams
my smile hides the truth but
my scars show for all who wish to
see my hidden knife that tells
my story with my blood on its blade
my final note and words
that are all about him
how much i love him
how much i care
how much pain i felt
with your cold final stare

Her..
He closes his eyes and waits for the darkness to circle him.
He scratched the blade across his stomache and felt the blood trickle down his thigh. He never wanted to die but this is how it must end. he couldn't bare the pain that her absence left.
he couldnt stand the hole in his heart.
He pressed it again and again wanting to bleed his pain out,
But it would never be enough.
Not until he could see her face and hold her again.
He smiled through his tears, picturing her emerald green eyes.
"Soon." he whispered with his last breath.
"Soon we will...

It shouldn't be true
I wish I could help.
People are so selfish these days.
I wish they would care.
They don't realize what is wrong with them.
I wish they would tell their pain.
They act like everything is fine.
I wish they would listen.
They ignore everything I say.
I wish I didn't care.
They yell at me.
I wish it didn't hurt.
They laugh at my pain.
I wish I could hurt the,.
They laugh at me again and again.
I wish I could hold it in.
They yell at me again.
O wish I wouldn't have hurt them.
They look at me with blind shock.
I wish I wasn't...

For you, my love
You are my life
you are my soul.
You are my heart,
you are my whole.
You are my reason to be,
who I am and me.
Without you i would go insane.
I wouldn't be able to control my pain.
I can survive without you,
but I would feel pain in everything that I do.
My love consists of only you.
Your voice, your taste, your smell, and everything you do.
You make me happy,
happier than I have ever been.
With every breathe I take,
your all that I think of.
Your name repeats in my mind,
with every heartbeat of mine.
Your voice echoes in...
you are my soul.
You are my heart,
you are my whole.
You are my reason to be,
who I am and me.
Without you i would go insane.
