POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Simple
Oh man I feel distracted
But I have nothing to chase after
Dreams so big percentages so small
My flesh is craving her and I want to indulge
She is always so cute and so persistent
She knows exactly what to say to keep me interested
As the anticipation builds so does my desire for you
Jumping over hurdles in any attempt just to get closer to you
Dear lord what am I putting myself through
Creating hour long movies with my imagination casting just me and you
Behind closed doors girl what did you think we would do
I promise not to get addicted...

Thoughts of a lost mind the first time
Thoughts of an unguided kid.
These lines
won't be produced
Or narrated, they will replay...
In my mind and heart
Forever.
They will define my very being
And echo throughout
My soul
Forever.
Words so simple
A kid
So out of control.
Why did god
Give me
Such power...
The explanation could be in these lines,
The decision in all
Will always be...

Guilty
Everything inside of me said
Let her go
Never trust again
You will fall harder
But every bit of the person I am
Wanted to forgive
And try again
But it hurt so bad
My mind was never the same
I said I could do it
But it never left my thoughts
The line was crossed
And some things
Cannot be
Unbroken
Let her go
Never trust again
You will fall harder
But every bit of the person I am
Wanted to forgive
And try again
But it hurt so bad
My mind was never the same
I said I could do it
But it never left my thoughts
The line was crossed
And some things
Cannot be
Unbroken

Better Days
I was too innocent
Danger never
Crossed my mind
Naive to all
Because I trusted
All the time
The pain
Exploded
Throughout my chest
Banging
Banging
Unable
To catch my breath
Things I never imagined
Became my new
Most obsessed about
Insecurities
Adding on
To all
That already
Troubles me
Insomniac I can't sleep
I need more pills
But now
My body feels weak
But that won't stop me
Because
My mind
Is no longer mine
Give me more ...

Would You
Step into a world
Where we see each other
So vivid
Unlike any dream
Untouchable to temptation
Witness a painless heart
Unfold
Irresistible like gold
Can you believe it
Would you imitate perfection
For me
Could you demonstrate
What it takes
To be complete
A ripple in time
Will these traumatic memories
Rip through me
Forcing me to think
How much deeper
Must my heart sink
How much suffering
Will be known
Until mercy
Is forced
Upon us
How many times
Will tears slide ...

Why Can We Understand You
Why Can't We Understand You
Why can't the girls of the world just say what they want, Instead everybody is confused, some damaged, a few abused, is it wrong to be so sensitive, just please express yourself, each one of us is different, no two are the same, you stand on a ledge of insecurity, doubt, fear, and excitement, you shouldn't be ashamed, find yourself and worry not about being judged, share with others and focus on love, there isn't any pressure at all, when the time is right, make you're own decision wether to jump or fall.
You Won't Let Us

My Team Is Blessed
I guess feelings of depression among other things have me down, out of tune and laying around, Listening to music soothing sounds as I'm imbedded in pain ruled by repetitive shame, And my life just don't feel the same, I speak of emotion a lot, And it seems the struggle is all I got, Do you wonder why I'm on the verge of insanity? Look around, Look at my family, Now shut up and turn around, I'm too sad to be proud of anything, I'm too young to be having these problems, I need some help because I do have problems and I don't know how to solve them, My momentum is shifting towards a negative...

The Uncontrollable Rant (Confessions & Other Things)
I want to be honest so here are my sincerest confessions, I hardly ever pray or ask for forgiveness especially when I'm stressing, I may be a little bit selfish, uncontrollable but I'm confused struggling to learn and I value these lessons, Second guessing and roaming back and forth, figuring out if I'm right or wrong seems to take up my whole day, I bet that's wrong, but most of my fears get the best of me most of the time, Who would I be if I didn't cower away from consistent uncomfortable situations, what would the future be like if I jumped on prime opportunities, Would I have found love...

The Struggle Within( The Struggle Of Many)
I can't control the strangers who approach my door, The fear was evident... But once introduced, We got along just fine... I won't deny any accusations, that I have been thinking about you, We both know it's true, What else could I possibly need.... Just don't leave, The sensation you bring to me couldn't be found anywhere else, The trap however was sprung, With a curse in full affect I didn't want it to stop, Young & dumb the reason being, In these days... Time does not seem limited, In fact we wish it passed us by, Because hell couldn't be more of a reality in troubled times, A disease...

What Will Tomorrow Bring
Thinking lately about my escape plan, The runaway from this forbidden land, I knew this wasn't the place for me since an early age, Getting into it a little more detailed, The tale I speak of resembles so many others as well, It all began in elementary when everybody was focused on having fun and making friends, But I wasn't so lucky, I would cry and nobody would hug me, From a different place, It was hard, Moving around so much the faces blurred together, Trapped in a corner literally against a brick wall, That was the only time somebody had my back at all, I was forced to watch everybody...

The Runaway
I'm trapped to my own... Misery? Why am I taking more steps, When I don't know where I'm going, Or what will happen next, Fuelling up cus my heart is drained, Feeling low, Feeling strange, And my feet hurt, It's like my shoes are getting smaller, My feet are growing and I'm getting taller, Suffocating slow, Breathing really hard, I know the pain I shouldn't show, Stay composed retain your image... Should it matter to me, What they say when I leave? Or should I be one of the few, Everybody wished they knew, That sounds better to me, Keep it to myself and continue to believe, More is destined...

The Twist
Ok so imagine the cycle, Pretend you see the twist, Blink twice and blow me a kiss, But only if you understand this, Linked at the wrist, Where I go you go, Follow me close, Watch the back door, Snakes might creep, I got the front covered, Quiet the cops are asleep, We are always getting into trouble, Love is difficult I know, You are always bursting my bubble, You were never afraid to let your feelings show, Keep it down and find the key, The lock can't be that hard to pick, here... Let me see, Operating under extreme pressure, My very desire to release us, Was pure... But I didn't want to...
