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.
I'm gone.... You have baby boy
I know I should be happy for you
That you gave birth to such a beautiful baby boy,
But I miss you,
I want you back,
And I love you.
I understand that you've moved on,
But you're not just a part of my past,
But a part of me.
That you gave birth to such a beautiful baby boy,
But I miss you,
I want you back,
And I love you.
I understand that you've moved on,
But you're not just a part of my past,
But a part of me.

We are human too!
Yes,
We are still human!
Gay, straight, bi, lesbian, transgender, etc
We are human!
Who we love does not determine whether we are a good or bad person.
Wanting to marry the one you love
Should not be up for political debate in the government.
Marriage Is marriage.
It's your right as a human being to get married.
Is it really such a big deal on who we marry?
It shouldn't be,
So don't make it be.

Tell me
Tell me my dreams won't come true,
Ill show you they will.
Tell me I won't get anywhere,
Well I'm farther ahead in life than you.
Tell me we aren't friends anymore,
Well I don't need a friend who isn't going to stay true and loyal.
Tell me that if I leave I can't come back,
You can't say that since you aren't my mother.
Tell me I'm not coping with my problems,
It's you who don't know how to cope with me coping better than you.
Tell me one more time to just forget the past,
Ill show you the past is useful.
Tell me I'm going to lose my mother,...
Ill show you they will.

Remember me
Hey!
Remember me?!?
I'm the one you dumped for another!
I told you I love you,
And you said it back.
I meant it when I said "I love you",
But in the end I guess you didn't really mean it.
It's been over two years since our break up.
We've dated other people since than,
But honestly I can't love another
Like the way I loved you.
I still love you,
But it's obvious you have moved on.

I'll be better
Giving birth to five children,
and not being able to raise them is heart breaking to a mother.
Giving them all up for adoption is harder than you know.
Letting go is just so hard to do.
You didn't think you'd be leaving us so soon
in a world that just didn't understand us.
You didn't really get the chance to really know us.
I'm talking about you mom,
and how you left without really saying goodbye.
I miss you,
And I love you,
but I'm here to tell you I'm not going to be like you.

Forever
Your life has been turned upside down by this voice in your head.
You don't know where it came from,
but you know it goes by the name Ana.
Ana claims she's your friend,
and she's here to help you lose weight.
As you get closer with Ana you find out that she's very demanding,
but she's only demanding because she knows what's best for you.
What starts out as a harmless diet soon turns into a harmful obsession.
You count your calories day in and day out.
You go from 1,000 calories to 900
800

Heart Breaking
She was my world.
I loved her.
I still love her.
I still hold on to all the little things we had.
But the worst part is that she moved on,
and left me for another.
Now that's just heart breaking.

What Am I Suppose To Think?
You and I started out as total strangers.
We didn't even know each other existed.
We think that how we met was by fate bringing us together.
If it's true fate brought us together,
than it must be true fate tore us apart.
When we met we were just struggling
teenagers trying to get a grip on life.
I struggled with depression, self-harm, and suicide.
You struggled with drug and alcohol addiction.
We were teenagers trying to find ourselves,
but some how we got lost in the crowd.
Soon after we met we became friends.
Things between is were...

The Ink On My Arms
You think "real ink" is the only kind of ink that looks cool on you?
well let me correct you for a moment.
It may be the only ink that is permanent,
but it's not the only kind to express yourself.
Living with depression,
and the darkness it brings along does not just
make your life miserable,
but you become silent and invisible too.
Being silent makes you feel deaf.
Being invisible makes you feel blind.
You feel shut out from the world.
I could kick and scream,
and no one would notice.
I could even throw a tantrum,...

No set backs
I have a history of self harm.
Every time I lapsed it would become a set back.
This time around though it'll be different.
My recent lapse is not a set back.
It is a bump in the road.
Everyone has a bump in their road.
My lapse will not set me back.
My medication will continue to decrease,
And not increase.
I will transition on time.
Depression and self harm will not rule my life again.
I am strong enough to not let this lapse set me back.
A set back is a choice.
I have chosen that this is no set back.

You are not alone
We live in a cold world,
But it gets even colder when the war within our mind rages on.
At first you may not be able to pin point exactly where the war is.
You may first notice problems within family and friends.
As the war progresses you start to realize its you who is changing.
You are changing into something foreign.
You're always sad.
You've lost interest in things that once bought you joy.
You're always angry.
Being alone is all you want.
You say you have no friends,
But you pushed them away.
You have self hatred.
You feel like you...

Crawling Back to you
People tell me that if I stopped seeing you I'll be able to address my problems properly,
and live a healthy life,
but I didn't want to get up and leave you behind without a reason.
I had to make a choice though.
It was either I stop seeing you,
and see what lies beyond the scars,
or keep seeing in this domestic relationship.
I decided to stop seeing you.
I wanted to see if it were true that my life would become better without you in it.
The decision was hard to make,
but I was determined to live a better life.
I wanted to make you jealous by seeing...
