POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
as a poet i like to write from experiences, or how I'm feeling, etc. I like to keep my writing down to earth at times and other times take is far away from reality inside my world.
mirror, mirror
the mirror.
what a fascinating thing to make.
All you do is look at your reflection,
but what do you see?
i see a beautiful girl
who wears bright and dark colors together.
A girl that wears the scars on her wrist like a badge of honor.
A girl that has bags under her eyes from lack of sleep.
A girl that wears the same fake smile to hide all the hurt.
Does anyone know who this girl is?
That girl in the mirror, who is she?
Is she an angel sent from above?
Is she a lost soul?
Is she a demon sent from below?
Oh what could this...

darkness always wins
i can't do this anymore
you find the light
and you have it for awhile
in the end though darkness always wins
life isn't strong to handle what's inside of me
death conquers my soul
my soul is so damaged that it has begun to fade again
my heart is no longer a red, healthy, beating heart
my heart has turned to black
and beats no more
but it hangs by a thread
my body is still
it feels no pain
its pale and cold
the bones are at ease
and longer move
its as if im paralyzed
my mind is blank
no thoughts go in or out
it does...

The Train
I swipe my metro card and hurry up the stairs
I get up to the platform and hold on to the railing
mobs of people pass me in all directions
i look down the tracks into the distance
i see the big yellow lights shine
and i know the train is coming
the train pulls in the station
groups of people gather around the doors
the doors open and groups of people come out
and groups of people go in
there are nine cars so alot of people fit
the window seats are the best
i look through the window to see all the graffiti
and when we go over the...

i dont want to die
Monday,June 18, 2012
Today in group me and my classmates expressed to staff the anger we felt toward them. During this conversation Michael expressed his feelings and said he was so mad. He said he wanted to kill everybody. That really scared me and the rest of the group. when group ended I was so scared that I started to cry. I couldn't help that I felt this way. I was really scared. I don't feel safe in school. I know the school takes this kind of stuff very seriously and they had to question him to make sure he was safe,but how do you know if he was being honest? I'm so...

obsessions
losing weight is my obsession
being thinner is my obsession
trying to get rid of hair i dont like is my obsession
a subconscious mindset is my obsession
being me is my obsession
my body is my biggest obsession yet
oh how i hate obsessing over me
i want to see the beauty people see in me
i want to know what it feels like to be beautiful
all the time
i dont want to feel beautiful sometimes
i want to feel beautiful all the time
am i asking to much of myself?
i dont think so
i think the way i handle my obsession is wrong

love me...please
I'm hurt inside
my soul is fading
my heart is shattered
my mind is corrupted
i don't know how much more I can take
I'm depressed
I want someone to love me.

the suns delusions
oh how I love the sun.
it's so beautiful and hot
oh how i wish i could get a tan well done
what shall I do to get this tan
I shall head to the beach
there the sun will do me well
I walk out onto the beach
and feel the sand in between my toes
i walk slowly so this feeling will last
I've found the perfect spot near the water
I laid out my blanket on the soft sand
I lay in the sun with my eyes closed
I listen to the waves crash onto the sand
I hear the birds
and people talking
there are much more sounds here than can...

can she survive the storm
She came to the conclusion that she had no friends. Knowing this made her very sad inside. The desire to have just one friend killed her inside and left scars upon her soul. She tried everything to just make one friend. Nothing she did worked. She still had no friends. She felt so lonely on the inside. She always wore that fake smile to hide all the hurt she felt. She thought to herself maybe if she changed something about herself people would start liking her and would want to be her friend. So she changed her hair, clothes, and accessories. That didn't work though. She was still the same...

R.I.P Jeremy
oh Jeremy why did you have to die so young?
you only lived two years.
i spent the best two years with you.
and you're gone.
you weren't just a hamster
you were my best friend.
i miss all those sleepless nights i spent with you
when you just got on your wheel and made it squeak.
i miss you so much
i feel like you died with a piece of my heart.
i wasn't ready for you to leave me
i wanted to play with you again today
but i never got that chance.
im glad i got a chance to say goodbye.
i buried you in my backyard...

dear janissa
dear janissa,
i am jealous of you because i feel like you are getting too close to Brandon. I'll tell why i feel like this in a minute but before i tell you that i need to say this first, i am jealous, and extremely depressed to a point where i feel like i need to cut myself but i wont do it. i promise i wont.
let me get to my point before this paper is soaked in my painful tears. i don't know what's going on between you and Brandon and i feel like if i know i might as well drop dead to floor because i wouldn't be able to handle it. i know you're wondering why i don't just say...

prayer to God
God i know you're real
and i know you're there too
you can hear me
but are you listening to me?
maybe if i had enough faith you'd show up
maybe if i didn't doubt like Thomas did you'd be by my side
I'm a sinner but i know that already
I'm suppose to be your daughter
i started out a daughter of Eve
but now I'm a woman of God
i need your help,mercy,and forgiveness
i need you to heal me
fill this hollowness inside me
fill this void in my heart
fill my soul with your presence
love me till the day i die
I'm tired of feeling all alone...
