POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write to get out how I feel, and sometimes just for fun, I love writing because it's where I can be me.
Red
Draw your knife and purge me of my skin
Take your gun and press it in my head
Let them know that they finally win
Take the knife and make me bleed red
Stab my heart and take out my eyes
I'm burning to ash, I'm melting inside
I've seen through your lies
And done nothing but cried
So please take that knife
Open my flesh
Pour out my blood
Don't bother trying to save me again
Take back my world
Rip my heart out again
This life is gone
Save me from your love
Take me home, take me away
Dream and take that...
Take your gun and press it in my head
Let them know that they finally win
Take the knife and make me bleed red
Stab my heart and take out my eyes
I'm burning to ash, I'm melting inside
I've seen through your lies
And done nothing but cried
So please take that knife
Open my flesh
Pour out my blood
Don't bother trying to save me again
Take back my world
Rip my heart out again
This life is gone
Save me from your love
Take me home, take me away
Dream and take that...

Pumping, pumping
Your eyes stabbed my every vein
My blood raced, pumping... pumping.
Your presence lingers and hides no shame
You had every fiber of my being
Your eyes are electric
Perfect and blue
Pulling me in with a trick
They drew me to you.
Your lips were soft but cracked
From too many smokes
You were everything my heart lacked
You are my dreams and my hopes
You've crushed me to peices
Please pick up every shard
Every time my heart reaches
You seem to make it so hard
You love me you love me
You hate me you hate me...
My blood raced, pumping... pumping.
Your presence lingers and hides no shame
You had every fiber of my being
Your eyes are electric
Perfect and blue
Pulling me in with a trick
They drew me to you.
Your lips were soft but cracked
From too many smokes

You are my dreams and my hopes
You've crushed me to peices
Please pick up every shard
Every time my heart reaches
You seem to make it so hard
You love me you love me
You hate me you hate me...

Brown eyes
Hey Brown eyes
Sparklin' like the stars at night
Hey brown eyes
sitting there alone
dear brown eyes
did you know i love you?
hey brown eyes, did you hear the news,
you've got my heart locked on you
you threw away the key
but i don't need it anymore
but my dear brown eyes
you came here alone
i hope that you know
I'm not letting you leave alone tonight
hey brown eyes
my brown eyes
Won't you please sing me to sleep tonight
And keep me warm through each winter night
put your arm around my shoulder
hey...

I've known dreams
I've known dreams.
I've known dreams as pointless as heartbreak,
and some as significant as the sun.
Like the intertwined roots of a willow tree
My heart has grown wild like the dreams.
I slept through the titanic,
I've soared above the shining sea
I gazed at the golden stars that gave me chills
like a snowflake resting upon my nose
I once danced with a King
In a heroic castle
I've watched the night sky calm with summer rain.
Sometimes clear and peaceful
but the stars still rise radiantly.

The perfect infection
The perfect infection
Your heart melted into mine
Your perfect scent lingers in my bed
You stole my heart, the perfect crime
You're beautiful voice still lingers in my head
I took your hand before you drifted away
I told you nothing else deserved your time
I kissed your lips under the sun's ray
I gave you my soul in every rhyme.
You kissed me like a cloud
You can't be short of perfection
Your every word sang loud
You are the perfect infection.
Your heart melted into mine
Your perfect scent lingers in my bed
You stole my heart, the perfect crime
You're beautiful voice still lingers in my head
I took your hand before you drifted away
I told you nothing else deserved your time
I kissed your lips under the sun's ray
I gave you my soul in every rhyme.
You kissed me like a cloud
You can't be short of perfection
Your every word sang loud
You are the perfect infection.

My Monster
My monster is screaming
He's angry and mean
He's loud and terrifying
Yet no one can hear him
My monster is crying
He's sad and he's lonely
He's wishing and dreaming as loud as he can
And no one is listening
My monster is dying
He's crawling and shaking
He's praying and jumping
And no one will help
My monster is trying
He's asking and he's begging
He's got tears in his eyes and blood on his scars
And no one can see
My monster, he's lying
He's cold in his bed
He took those pills and he laid down his...

A game I play
Let me tell you about a game I play
Where I close my eyes and fade away
I float away to a special place
Beyond the stars and moon and space
In this special place you see
There are only two people - just you and me
In this place, all is right
Nothing but love, and we never fight
In this place, there is no sadness
No cells, no courts, none of that madness
No rules to follow, no laws to break
No bars to hold us or separate
No one to tell us we can't kiss or touch
I don't just tell you "I love you" - I...

Take a look.
Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice
Take a look
At that tree
At every broken memory
At every little groove
Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice
Take a look
At that bird
At every freedom
At every ruffled feather
Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice
Take a look
At that cloud
At every year you're meant to live
At every picture it plays
Take a look
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice
Take a look
At your hand...
At your life
Maybe once
Maybe twice
Take a look

At every broken memory
At every little groove

Take a look

Her
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Burn, burn, every hour
Pain is but her only power
Take, take, not this time
Come back to declare this rhyme
Wake, wake, every night
Blood shed and she was right
Love, love, say it again
Run fast again from her deadly men
Hate, hate, this soul they take
Shove them down in this lake
Tonight, tonight, again this fight
Take me away from this endless night
Stab, stab, another cry
Trust her, love her every lie
Nymph, nymph, takes her side
Make sure she never cried...
Come again another day
Burn, burn, every hour
Pain is but her only power
Take, take, not this time
Come back to declare this rhyme
Wake, wake, every night
Blood shed and she was right
Love, love, say it again
Run fast again from her deadly men
Hate, hate, this soul they take
Shove them down in this lake
Tonight, tonight, again this fight
Take me away from this endless night
Stab, stab, another cry
Trust her, love her every lie
Nymph, nymph, takes her side
Make sure she never cried...

The blade
Take the pain and squeeze it dry
Bleed out all of your dark sky
Take the blade to my thigh
Help is useless why should I try?
It's burning inside with every screech
They told you never to drink that bleach
Pain is an addicting leech
Don't cry over the blade just reach
Take the pain and squeeze it dry
Bleed out all of your dark sky
One time is all, that's a lie
Take the blade and give it a try
Drag the blade across your skin
Losing the battle you let them win
Your last resort, your usual trade
A bloody wrist is a smiling...
Bleed out all of your dark sky
Take the blade to my thigh
Help is useless why should I try?
It's burning inside with every screech
They told you never to drink that bleach
Pain is an addicting leech
Don't cry over the blade just reach
Take the pain and squeeze it dry
Bleed out all of your dark sky
One time is all, that's a lie
Take the blade and give it a try
Drag the blade across your skin
Losing the battle you let them win
Your last resort, your usual trade
A bloody wrist is a smiling...
