POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write when I feel and when I'm bored.I'm improving. Keep in mind I'm 16.
A thing called jealousy
Jealousy eats me alive like a virus taking over my heart and soul and skin.
I can feel it crawling over me and taking a bite physically making me ill.
I'm shaking with fury drowning in tears and I can blame it on you but it wouldn't be accurate.
I have evil inside of me that can not be silenced and it will not listen to me.
I am jealous of you and so I tear you down because it is hard to see the one I love so much happier than me especially when I'm supposed to be just as happy.
I am a bully but that's what happens when you pretend to be happy with evil happy with lies ...

Don't be scared to be yourself
Actions speak louder than words
And from your actions I can tell that you're hurt
That you try helplessly and hopelessly everyday
To act like you don't have feelings
Like right now none of this has a meaning
You pretend like you're cold as ice
But the water is crystal clear
And I see everything you're trying so hard to hide
I see the casket of secrets you keep buried inside
I hear the words you won't dare to say
Because you're afraid of the way you might love
But love has never caused a tear
But fear instead caused them...

Mind over Matter
If I could write my feelings for him in a song
it’d be the longest song ever written
but this is not a song,
this is a poem,
and like life poems end,
and like poems relationships end, people end,
and I wonder why I never take the time to ask my self why
why I waste my love on a boy, my pain on a song, my thoughts on a poem,
but the thing is when your stuck in the hole of heartbreak time disappears
and all the time you could be spending on yourself
you spend dwelling deeper into the past
into the regret,
and into the person you think you...

Keep walking
In my tear filled eyes the pavement glistened.
As i walked down the street with my past behind me and my future shining brightly in the sky.
I felt satisfaction in each breath
And in the shuffling of my feet
As i took one step closer to greatness
And one step further away from the idea that i need someone else to smile.

Put down the blade
Don't submit to the urge I tell myself
No matter how much it hurts
Each scars shows each time you gave in
Each time you gave up
And each time you were wrong
And it's never worth it
You don't do it because it makes you feel worth while
You haven't done it in a while
So don't
why do you want to?
Because the blood distracts you?
Because the red attracts you?
Because you want to take the attention away from your thoughts instead of dealing with your emotions
yes that's it.
with every slit and every slice you fall deeper into the rabbit hole...

To truly see
The ticking clock that never seems to end, does.
So,why not spend less time wishing for the time to end?
Or worrying about the time passing.
Why not treasure every tick?
Every excruciating little time the sound waves wash to the shore of your brain, and the heartache hits your beating bleeding heart like a bullet to the chest.
Because if you can do so, and still come out with a sunny disposition,
You might be able to catch a glimpse of the butterflies wing
Or a sliver of the gold buried beneath the sand with your bare palms,
You may begin to faintly...

diss on the douchebags
Once upon a time
I had one thing only,
on my mind
That was you,
And making love too,
You
always and forever
Everyday everynight
Every kiss every bite
Got to have my fix
Else i cant sleep tight
Shit, aint right
Loves fucked up
But i love it
What i dont love,
is lies,
That aint cool,
Fuck those guys
Fuck the fools who
wanna fuck, all the time
but constantly leaving you behind
Don't really care whats on your mind
The ones who pretend to love
Cuz They don't have enough
In their life
To give it...

All I want is you
Since the moment you walked into my life
I felt better
my bad memories I couldn't remember
and when i heard your name
the butterflies came
and when i touched you i knew
that i wanted you and only you
when you asked me to be yours
i thought i was dreaming
everything i dreamt of was finally happening
we were going to laugh
and we were going to smile
and our love would last forever if not for a while
everyday with you was never enough
every word you spoke was a head rush
and i swore i could feel love when we touched
but i dare not...

murderer of a loving soul
she say she hurting
she dying
he deserve it
not her
heartbreak is murder
hes a murder-er
he don't care
he carry no guilt
it isn't his thing
it was her blood that spilt
he wipes off his hands
he don't give a damn
took a heart from a poor girl
when all she wanted was a fam
he aint a real man
cuz he dont know what love is
this man aint a man
this mans just a fucking kid
grow the fuck up
grow some fucking balls
you dont always have to be in control
love is bout caring and letting yourself fall
but boy you...

Dear Depressives,
With all my might I wish I could save you
from your thoughts
from your memories
from your criticism
from this depression
your sinking
your making yourself sink
pull yourself up
or ask for help
I'm here for you
I'll hold your hand
Just say the word
I'm there
you're so beautiful
yet you call yourself ugly
you're nice
yet your mean to yourself
you're smart
but you won't try because you think your dumb
well your not
your wrong
I love you
everyone does
forget the words your mind tells you
be strong...

you'll be set free
Dig
Dig deeper
you'll find the answer
scratch
even harder
until you reach bone
jump
right now
you'll find mommy & daddy
pull
on the trigger
you'll find your way home
