POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
ive been built up, ive been broken down, but still i stand waiting for the next blow.
Lost Love
Darkness surrounds me..
The terrors of the night bound me..
Truly has it been this long?
Since the love of my life has been gone?
I can't take another heart break..
For sure this time it won't just ache..
How can I know for sure..
That this time this love can be cured?
You disappeared so long ago..
Being rational I should say hell no!
But my heart wins over my head
And honestly I feel a sense of dread
You say you won't leave
But what can I believe?
All I can think is I that love...
The terrors of the night bound me..
Truly has it been this long?
Since the love of my life has been gone?
I can't take another heart break..
For sure this time it won't just ache..
How can I know for sure..
That this time this love can be cured?
You disappeared so long ago..
Being rational I should say hell no!
But my heart wins over my head
And honestly I feel a sense of dread
You say you won't leave
But what can I believe?
All I can think is I that love...

Damned Professor
English is what I speak
English is what I know
People I do not know
Words with them come and they go
So professor sir
Why make my mind stir?
I do not wish to understand the complex strands
Why force me to speak to them with my hands?
I'm not tech savvy
And no offence but you're kind of flabby
I can speak when I choose
I do believe you've had too much booze
Slurring your words my dear professor?
Who could've thought you're quite the guesser
My A in class was well earned
Don't be a snob with your...

Everything happens for a reason?
this pain it hurts so much..
something stolen because of pure lust...
I've closed myself off from the terror..
but in my head I will never forget the horror..
I'm scared to get close to anyone..
being so scarred is no fun..
I'm terrified of what you'll do...
because I'm alone and you've got two...
the bruises and beatings I healed from
but this.. I'm so scared I'm dumb...
I've never felt so alone..
this is the first time my fear has been shown..
why didn't you kill me after...
instead of leaving me bleeding you...

Does He Know?
No one cared...
No one even dared...
To lend a hand
That's why I cannot stand...
Alone is what I am
Deserted by the human man...
Did he even know what love was?
Or did he say it just because...?
Can I ever trust again?
My skin pale as ice holding no tan
My heart was crushed in his hands...
By this..this brute of a man...
I can't stand..
My soul it is too bland...
Passers by stop and stare..
But I already know they'll never care...
I gave it all for him..
The fire in my heart is now dim..
I sigh before...
No one even dared...

That's why I cannot stand...
Alone is what I am

Holding
Holding my own
I show what was never shown
Is it heartbreak I feel?
Is it too late to heal?
It's been a long time since I smiled
Thinking now I think I've gone wild
A dark angel torn apart.
A little girl the world forgot
I still feel for you
But that girl had to steal from you
She stole your heart and shredded the pieces
With that I was left with nothing but faded kisses
I want to help you
But I don't know how..tell me please?

Ruined Happiness
For once I was happy!
For once I wasn't scared!
But you ruined it for me!
To think I thought you cared!
The arguing still hasn't stopped!!!
Like a cork my happiness popped!
You always do this to us!
YOUR kids need to be counted as a plus!!!
But NO! I'm a fuck up to you!
You had me fooled for just a day
To that you asshole you will pay!
I can't call you daddy anymore
For it was mine and my mother's heart you tore!
I remind you its nothing but a promise..
You swore you'd be there!
You swore you...

Truly Happy
I smiled today
And I'm proud to say
The knife never crossed my mind
We laughed and enjoyed ourselves this time
My mommy came home
So I wasn't alone
My daddy said sorry for yelling at me
Saying being mean wasn't his cup of tea
This poem is short
This poem is sappy
But for once here in my life at home
I am truly happy
And I'm proud to say
The knife never crossed my mind
We laughed and enjoyed ourselves this time
My mommy came home
So I wasn't alone
My daddy said sorry for yelling at me
Saying being mean wasn't his cup of tea
This poem is short
This poem is sappy
But for once here in my life at home
I am truly happy

Can You Hear My Dying Words?
Can no one hear my screams?
Can no one hear my shouts?
Nightmares are not dreams!
But no one cares what they're about!
I'm stuck in a void!
I am SICK and TIRED of being a toy!
You say everything I do makes you annoyed,
So why keep me around like I give you joy?
To live in this hell
I'd rather slit my wrists to shreds!!
Fuck it! I may as well!!!
At least then I wouldn't live with this dread!!
That first slice of the knife,
The first drop of the blood..
Oh man it feels so nice!
It's safe to say this cut's not a dud!...

A Locked Door.
A locked door
A rusty razor
A towel stained red
A broken mirror
A folded note on the floor
A young girl lays there dead on the floor
Time begins to blur
The room begins to swirl
She was mommy's perfect angel
And daddy's little girl
Seen as a shining pearl
Everyone oblivious and in their own little world
No one noticed her and the broken sword
The knife she held
Was a gift from hell
That blade they gave
Her young life it slayed
If only her one true love had stayed
But instead he'd had her played
Seeing how long...

Fear
I am becoming the very thing I have been trying so hard not to.
I feel my past catching up to me. I don't want to be like the rest of them.
I want to be the better half. I run, but my legs don't move.
They have become weighed down by my mistakes. They strip me of power.
Fear creeps into my mind. What am I to do? I see solutions.
They are just out of reach. I am finally able to grasp them, just for them to slip through my fingertips.
What is wrong with me? Why is this happening? Why cant i stop this?
I try so hard to end it, though...

Couldn't Sleep So I Wrote A Poem
Can't sleep
Old dreams leave me weak
Talking to you made my night wonderful
I wonder if it was good for you too
Your adorable smile
And sweet laugh
Those beautiful brown eyes
And the way you say my name
I had wanted to give up
But seeing you makes me keep fighting
I'm a Kentucky girl
Riding horses and bailing hay
Your a Cali boy
Workin through the day and making time to say hey
I'm so happy now
You've seen my smile
I've seen yours too
I'm glad we've talked these things through
...

Short but sweet
Seeing you this morning made my day
I couldn't stop smiling I didn't care what they all say
It felt like a lifetime
Being so close was a lifeline
So many memories
So many happy days
They danced through my head
Taking happieness changed from dread
All I have to say is
I've missed you darling
I couldn't stop smiling I didn't care what they all say
It felt like a lifetime
Being so close was a lifeline
So many memories
So many happy days
They danced through my head
Taking happieness changed from dread
All I have to say is
I've missed you darling
