Who am I
To you
Possibilities of us are everywhere
But with my secret
I don't have time to spare
How do I tell you?
Will you hate me?
Or will you accept it, too?
Pretty darling dresses
With a long hair bow
Long hair that expresses
Fit me from long ago
Dirt matted cleats
Sweaty all around
Sweet orange treats
Tackled to the ground
Feels all wrong
How can I be strong?
Scorn
Glances
Do they all know?
Know the pain I must undergo
To get here
And all the hateful words I...

Future Healer
Students looking in Admiration
Horsing around, pulling my strings
As I look on with a smile of agitation
And learn new English things
I cry out in mock disappear
The students going quiet
Flinging my arms up in the air
Our laughter is the perfect feel-good diet
And as the night comes
I am like a rebel
And the bass guitar strums
Self confidence on a higher level
Music is my soul fixer
Drums crashing down
Screaming fans a sweet elixir
Knowing I have been found
Horsing around, pulling my strings
As I look on with a smile of agitation
And learn new English things
I cry out in mock disappear
The students going quiet
Flinging my arms up in the air
Our laughter is the perfect feel-good diet
And as the night comes
I am like a rebel
And the bass guitar strums
Self confidence on a higher level
Music is my soul fixer
Drums crashing down
Screaming fans a sweet elixir
Knowing I have been found

Moment
The white Tiger sits,
Waiting for its prey to die
As thunder rumbles

Cancer
Eating away at you
The inside out
A silent killer
Not like gas
You can't feel the gas
But sickness is there
Hurting you and eating at you
You want to hang on
But you can't seem to get out of the rut
How can things be so horrible
For you
But so amazing for them
Will you ever be well enough
To just be yourself
With your friends
Or will that time
Never come again
The inside out
A silent killer
Not like gas
You can't feel the gas
But sickness is there
Hurting you and eating at you
You want to hang on
But you can't seem to get out of the rut
How can things be so horrible
For you
But so amazing for them
Will you ever be well enough
To just be yourself
With your friends
Or will that time
Never come again

Knife
Tears streak my cheeks
As I watch you leave
Stomach hurts
Heart aches
Salt crusting on my eyelashes
Students swirl past me
Some stare
And asks what is wrong
But I can not speak
Memories of you
Swirl in my mind
Chills run over me
Sobs begin to escape
Your dark brown hair
The smile you showed me
And the laughs like bells
Your eyes
Haunt me so
The ghost of your voice
Next to my ear
Saying oh so low
“Let me twist that knife for you”
And I cripple in pain
My breath catching
I can not speak

Bang
Cick
Ring
Silver flashes everywhere
The typing of keys
Infultrate my dreams
A mouse that does not live
Squeakes across
A whirring noise is heard
Mindless students stare blankly
Their brains turning to mush

Lithium
It hurts
As the lithium
Takes over
My white scarf
Stained with your blood
Slowly turning red
As tears well in my eyes
And I watch you die
Murderer
The children whisper
In my dreams
Why do they haunt me so?
The lithium
Isn’t working tonight
And I still can’t seem to shake
The feeling of eyes
Upon my back
And the feeling of power
Of tearing flesh
Leers at me around every corner
Nightmares
Sweat beads on my forehead
Contents in my stomach
Showing once again
As your bloody hand
Reaches out to me...

Stained with your blood

Blushes
Romance
Roses
Kisses
I am the girl
Who never much cared
For these petty little things
Mud was my chocolate
And weeds my flowers
But now I feel changed
When I look at you
Dreams of hearts float
Into my mind
And I have never felt so sick
Your smiles are so sweet
Like vanilla ice cream
And warm apple pie
When I hear your laughter
Suddenly flowers are flowers
And mud is only dirt
And I am only a girl
Who blushes when you hug her
And reaches to hold your hand
Only to quickly change her mind
And wait awhile...

War
Ripping Tearing
Howls fill the air
As young children scream
And cry out in despair
The creatures roam the sky
As they lift off in the air
And humans try to fly
The fire rages down below
As smog fills up their lungs
The horizon a mellow yellow
As ambulances rush by
Taking people to their homes
Who never asked to die
The war is slowly smothering
The soldiers oh so brave
Who try to kill the creatures
Who just won’t seem to work or try
Or cry out in despair
And hold the white flag high
Howls fill the air
As young children scream
And cry out in despair
The creatures roam the sky
As they lift off in the air
And humans try to fly
The fire rages down below
As smog fills up their lungs
The horizon a mellow yellow
As ambulances rush by
Taking people to their homes
Who never asked to die
The war is slowly smothering
The soldiers oh so brave
Who try to kill the creatures
Who just won’t seem to work or try
Or cry out in despair
And hold the white flag high

Heart Beats
The sun beats down on my head
The beautiful flowers quivering
A breeze rustling the green leaves
Wind stops, leaving the night behind
Freedom flies dance with their lights
Children lay down on the grass
My eyes see thousands of little stares
That beat like hearts all their own
I make a wish as one comes crashing down
Slowly my eyes close
Drifting into dreams
The beautiful flowers quivering
A breeze rustling the green leaves
Wind stops, leaving the night behind
Freedom flies dance with their lights
Children lay down on the grass
My eyes see thousands of little stares
That beat like hearts all their own
I make a wish as one comes crashing down
Slowly my eyes close
Drifting into dreams

Depression
I smile
As you talk to me
When really
I don’t find what’s so funny
In your empty words
Sometimes my smiles and laughs
Are from deep inside
And are really, truly
There
But really
I usually don’t care
Days go by
As I stare
At the empty board
In front of me
As I wait for someone
To see
I think of tears
Drenching my face as rain
Usually does
Remembering the choked sobs
I try and suppress
In bed
Alone
I smile
But Is it real?
Does anyone understand
How I feel?
The road ahead
Is so...

Waves
Listen
To the waves that crash in your heart
Feel the salt wash away the wounds
The clouds slowly receding
Purple and orange sky's left behind
As the sun slowly sets
A new night beginning
Making way for the day
That will bring new things
It may not be good
It may not be bad
It may not even be something new worth knowing
Like that the sky is not blue
But it's okay to think it is
Because it's only make believe
If we think it's not true
Cause dreams are meant for dreaming
Reality is meant for disagreeing
Fiction is meant for...
