POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
The best of us find happiness in misery
Tear drops and piano keys
The music grows louder,
As my heart begins to break,
The pain I feel is true,
The love I have isn't fake.
As you're leaving take my heart,
What's it good for,
Its broken beyond repair,
I don't need it anymore.
Tear drops,
Piano keys,
Take keep my heart,
Give it peace.
I'll wait for you,
If you ever come back,
It takes a big facade,
To hide every crack.
I'll still be here,
If you ever do need me,
Hoping all the while,
One day together we'll be.
As my heart begins to break,
The pain I feel is true,
The love I have isn't fake.
As you're leaving take my heart,
What's it good for,
Its broken beyond repair,
I don't need it anymore.
Tear drops,
Piano keys,
Take keep my heart,
Give it peace.
I'll wait for you,
If you ever come back,
It takes a big facade,
To hide every crack.
I'll still be here,
If you ever do need me,
Hoping all the while,
One day together we'll be.

A "bit" depressed
Up alone one night,
I was feeling a bit depressed,
I didn't want to do it,
I hope that fact is stressed.
I walked to the kitchen,
Searching for a knife,
It had to be sharp,
I had to take my life.
I grabbed my heart,
Pulled it out of my chest,
Stabbed the knife through,
You know the rest.
I lyed there,
Truely heartless this time,
Everyone has a time to die,
I thought this was mine.
I opened my eyes,
I had missed,
I didn't understand,
I put the knife to my wrist.
Something was wrong,
It...

Thats what I get
Angry words,
Should have never been spoken,
An innocent heart,
Should have never been broken.
Heartless secrets,
Should have been kept,
So many nights,
I should have left.
Unfair compromises,
Should never have been made,
So many scars,
That will never fade.
Sexual things,
Should never had been done,
So many times,
Had the chance to turn and run.
Strange emotions,
Should never hace been felt,
A heart of black,
Should never had been helped.
One girl,
Should never been met,
I saw the...

I'll meet you in my dreams
As you walk away slowly the way you do,
I can't help but start to miss you,
In the back of my mind I know it'll be alright,
I'll meet you in my dreams tonight,
We could hang out in Paris,
Or maybe in Vinice,
Baby we'll cross that line,
We'll fall in love one last time,
We'll kiss in the rain,
I'll forget all my pain,
We'll stare at the stars,
While healing my scars,
I'll give you my heart,
Don't rip it apart,
Its always yours to keep,
For as long as I sleep,
When I finally awake,
The memories I'll take,

something to say to you
I wish to say something,
Of which you may not be aware,
For even if I keep it in,
The thought will still be there.
I'll always say I miss you,
Because thats honestly true,
Even if you don't always say,
I miss you too.
I'll always say I love you,
Even if it is too soon,
I know how I feel,
For the beat of my heart plays a tune.
You are my alice,
I haven't called you that in a while,
No matter how long its been,
Your voice always brings a smile.
I wish I could find the words,
To explain how I feel,
You...

if its just a dream
If this is just a dream,
Please don't wake me,
I don't want to leave this world,
Where you're the only perfection I see.
The first time we kissed,
It felt so right,
When I had you in my arms,
You fir warm and tight.
Maybe there's somethin to,
Those fairy tale things,
That's what my heart tells me,
When it sings.
You saved me my dear,
From this broken heart of mine,
To make me love you,
Didn't take much time.
You fixed my heart,
Loved every shart,
You made it warm again,
For you it wasn't hard.

Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder,
If I would be better off dead,
At least then it would silence the thoughts,
Spinning in my head.
If I were to die,
Would anyone care,
Would they even notice,
Im not there.
If I gave up,
A care I didn't give,
Who would stand beside me,
And force me to live.
If just one time,
I cut too deep,
Took my life,
Who would lose sleep?
If I decided to,
Turn away,
Shut everyone out,
What would people say?

It was just a crush
My best friend,
That's all you were,
I never thought,
You'd mean mote to me than her.
Just a crush,
Nothing more,
I never thought you'd turn out to be,
The one I was wishing for.
A few weeks passed,
It didn't go away,
My heart kept screaming,
I had something to say.
I ran from it,
Behind my pain I hid,
Showed my feelings,
Until you did.
I finally had the courage,
To ask you to be mine,
You said yes,
Then I knew i would be fine.
Somewhere along the way,
You broke through my wall,...

your power
You have a power my love,
One that can never be matched,
You've always had it,
From the moment I became attached.
Its a wonderful thing,
Scary all the same,
Things will go wrong,
If you play it as a game.
This power you have,
Controls my heart,
You can keep it warm,
Or tear it apart.
Im always breathless,
When you're around,
When you're gone,
Im a flame that's burning out.
No matter your choice,
I will love you still,
If you ever leave,
Its me that you'll kill.

our old conversation
Looking through my phone today,
I found our old conversation,
As I opened it,
I was sure it would bring my heart desolation.
Scrolled through the entire thing,
Reading every lie,
As the time passed I realized,
I didn't want to die.
They only brought up memories,
That no longer cause me pain,
I don't care for them anymore,
They can't drive me insane.
I laughed at how dumb I was,
You really had me going,
Why I ever gave you a chance,
There is no way of knowing.
I guess I should thank you,
You really helped...

haunting game
Unseen things,
That go bump in the night,
Lost spirits,
That cause such a fright.
Some call them spectors,
Others simply ghosts,
For their haunting game,
We are the hosts.
They are only defending,
What was once theirs,
The level of intrusion,
To which nothing compares.
They only want peace,
To be left alone,
To have their own place,
They can call home.
I don't see why people fear them,
They're really quite tame,
They only want us to play,
Their haunting game.

Travels of my heart
I once had a heart,
Then she came along,
I started to fall,
Then things went wrong.
She said the right words,
And acted the right way,
We no longer speak,
I never thout I would see the day.
She turned away,
My heart shattered,
She never looked back,
Didn't act like it mattered.
She gave the peices back,
I threw them out,
And walked away,
There was nothing left to care about.
They layed there,
Exactly where they had been left,
Promises to fix them,
Had never been kept.
Then one dark day,...
