Poet Introduction
The most confident insecure person
My Heart
I loved you,
No I still love you.
I gave you my heart
But you took it and ripped it apart.
I held you so tight,
But you thought it didn't feel right.
So now I can barely breath
And I'm falling to my knees.
You seem fine
Why did I let myself call you mine?
Why did I do this to my broken heart?
No I still love you.
I gave you my heart
But you took it and ripped it apart.
I held you so tight,
But you thought it didn't feel right.
So now I can barely breath
And I'm falling to my knees.
You seem fine
Why did I let myself call you mine?
Why did I do this to my broken heart?

The Flower
The flower that is beautiful and bright,
Struggles for life in it's everyday fight.
So young, so strong
It emits such light.
The flower that brings a smile to your face,
Lives a hard life for so many days.
So lively, so happy
It blooms with much grace.
The flower that holds a place in your heart,
The way she talks is full of art.
So lovely, so brave
You find it hard to be apart.
Yet, when it's dark for too long, it starts to wilt,
When things are too tough, it begins to tilt.
When it's dark for too long, it wishes for...

Things I Didn't Believe
I didn't believe that I could feel this way,
A way that hurts almost everyday.
The pain I feel all to often,
Makes my heart soften.
Because it hurts,
It feels all to great.
As you keep me in my place.
I didn't believe that anyone could love me so,
I believed it wouldn't be so hard to go.
So I prayed at night for it to end,
That until you claimed my heart to mend.
Your love lifted me up,
Now please don't let me drop.
I didn't believe that I could care,
until you came to tear,
every wall it took so long to build.
It's...

The Jacket
I put the jacket on today.
You know, the one I wore the last time we hung out.
I've washed it multiple times since then, yet it still smells like you.
I wonder if your shirt still smells like me.
Of course I will never ask.
You probably don't even remember which shirt it was.
I wonder if you even remember that day because I do.
I remember how every time you asked me something or I said something,
you always made sure that you were looking me in the eyes.
You made it seem like every thing I said was important;
you made me feel important.
Yet a few...

I think of you
I think of you as I read my favorite book.
I think of you as I drink my favorite beverage.
I think of you as I lay at night.
I think of you as the tears stream down my face.
I think of you as the hole in my heart grows larger, taking your shape.
I think of you as I beg for god to take away the pain.
I think of you when the sun sets.
I think of you as the sky turns grey when it's about to rain.
I think of what we could have been and what you are with her.
I think of you with your arms wrapped around her, knowing it should be me.

Why?
Why do we care about those who hurt us?
Why do we reread their texts with us even though we know it will hurt?
Why do we think of them so much it makes us sick?
I think it's because we don't want to let go.
We are afraid that if we delete the messages, they didn't happen.
That if we stop thinking of the person then they are really gone.
I don't know much but I know that we all get hurt by people we care about.
It's the way of life.
Because if you care about someone,
you give them the ability to hurt you.
Majority of the time they take advantage of this....

Everyone Leaves
Everyone leaves you
There are two ways
By death or by choice
Some will say death is the most common,
I disagree
Everyone makes choices daily
I have lost more people by choice than by death.
But in the end they always leave.
Whether it makes or breaks you,
That is your choice.

In The Night
We ran wild into the night
We had stars in our eyes
All we wanted to be
Is all that we could be
We'll party until the sun comes up
Then sleep til it's time to do it again
We laughed so hard
We were heard around the world
Our smiles were so wide
They were bigger than the sky
We sang our hearts out
We sang til our voices were cracking
We did all of this
It was the happiest moments of our lives
We had stars in our eyes
All we wanted to be
Is all that we could be
We'll party until the sun comes up
Then sleep til it's time to do it again
We laughed so hard
We were heard around the world
Our smiles were so wide
They were bigger than the sky
We sang our hearts out
We sang til our voices were cracking
We did all of this
It was the happiest moments of our lives

Depressed
I sit with my "friends"
They're all happy and laughing
They don't seem to notice
That I'm not okay.
As I sit silent in a room full of chatter
I begin wonder if I even matter.
They all don't need me
That is is clear to see.
I think of ways to describe this feeling
And to me I realized
It's like drowning while seeing everyone breath.
As I'm dying inside
I wonder
If they can be alright
Then why can't I?
They're all happy and laughing
They don't seem to notice
That I'm not okay.

Just Another Lie
We've been here before,
We'll come here agaIn.
As I whisper to myself
"It's just another lie."
I'll lay my head in my hands
Then look to the sky as I ask myself
"Why another lie?"
But he doesn't know
How much it hurts inside
Because I know
It's another lie.
People ask me why I stay
They say I should run far away
But I think to myself
It's just another lie.
Because how can I leave
When the only place I want to be
Is by your side
But I swear this time
If you say another lie
I swear this time,...
We'll come here agaIn.
As I whisper to myself
"It's just another lie."
I'll lay my head in my hands

Alone
Sweet girl with a smile,
But you should know it hasn't been a while,
Since the tears streamed down her face,
Begging for the pain to just go away.
With her friends laughing around her,
She has never felt so alone.
She is so worried,
That she will forever be lonely.
Yet, she locks up her heart,
And turns off her feelings.
For a girl so young she knows so much
She knows how life will tear you apart.
But you should know it hasn't been a while,

Begging for the pain to just go away.

Yet, she locks up her heart,
And turns off her feelings.
For a girl so young she knows so much
She knows how life will tear you apart.
