POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
trying to succeed.
feelin lost and insecure. where were you when I needed you?
you left me in the dark, just waiting for that spark,
that light, that bright, something to tell me what's wrong and what's right.
I need something to lead the way, which way to go from day to day.
in need of some kind of sign that'll help me get by.
anything to show me what I'm doing wrong & how I can do right
guess I gotta put up a fight.
they say if you want something, go get it.
but how am I supposed to get something when I don't know what it is?
I need a plan, I need a fan,...

useless
ok so I really don't need this shit right now,
I'm dealing with too much shit right now.
nothing matters, everything's shattered.
I don't need anyone to tell me what I'm doing wrong,
I been on my own all along.
oh now you care, now you wanna be there?
well I don't need a friend, I need this shit to end.
I need some motivation, I ain't tryna pretend,
no more scraping up the pieces like that'll get me by,
maybe I can fool em, they just think I'm high.
but really I'm just insane, I'm losing my fucking mind.
I don't know who you are and I...

trapped
fuck dude, its been one hell of a ride
caught my self thinkin bout what would happen if I died
I put this shit down on paper to try and rearrange it
tryna make some sense out these thoughts, tryna exchange it
I hate when you put your faith and trust into something
and then it totally lets you down
I'm not very hopeful, I'm expecting worse for next time around
its the same old shit, the ups and the downs
spin in enough circles, end up on the ground
tired of waiting for the next catastrophe
all that karma is just gonna come back to me
sick of...

my life.
my name is chelsea, im a fuck-up-aholic
i have a disease and they dont know what to call it
ok so im not really addicted im just experimenting
im powerless and my life is unmanageable
addiction runs in my blood so i might just run with it

high and depressed.
ignoring my responsibilities and just gettin high
thinkin i've been strong for so long just barely gettin by
guess this was just my time, its my turn to breakdown
sittin here writin rhymes, people dont even know im still around
i isolated myself, excluded myself, shoulda just fuckin executed myself
why am i even here? people dont even know i exist
i aint never made a change in the world except this fuckin list,
of shit i wanna achieve, goals i wanna reach
that shit fuckin haunts me everyday that im a leech
just livin off of hand outs and i keep...
