Remember Me
I don't remember your name
I can't forget the way you smelled
Turn me over
Do me harder
Slap me again
Bite me 'til I'm red
I don't remember much of anything
I can't tell if that's a good thing
You haunt my dreams
And all my waking moments
Is this how you planned it?
Is this what you wanted?
Scars fade
And pain remains
I don't remember your name
I don't remember getting into your car
But I want you to remember
Just one tiny thing
Remember my face
The way I smiled at you in...

And all my waking moments
Is this how you planned it?
Is this what you wanted?
Scars fade
And pain remains
I don't remember your name
I don't remember getting into your car

Just one tiny thing

Mirror, Mirror
I watched my face in the mirror as I rolled a twenty. White, crystalline flakes sat there, just waiting. I sat there waiting for you. I saved you a line. But you never came.
I didn't feel as guilty as I should have. I fucked yourbest friend....he was better anyways. But you never came.
I don't want to be left alone anymore. I'm just so tired. So I snorted another line. I can wait up a little longer. But you never came.
I started to believe that I was nothing. I started to suck harder on that cigarrette. I'll do anything to poison myself. But still you never came.
It makes...

A
higher ground is reached by those who have died
And
wishing to reach them we are denied
To
learn the secrets of life, we can not live it
Wanting
greatness but unable to commit it
Lost
in what we want, distracted by what we need
Endless,
meaningless conversations to feed
Walking
around in a blur,
Nodding
of heads only to confer.
No
direction to be found.
A
higher being gone missing, might be too profound
In
need of a childhood...

In the Midst
In the Midst
Caught in the middle,
Unsure of which path to choose.
Wherever I go, chaos
Is not far behind.
When will I learn my purpose in life?
When will I see where the truth lies?
Allusions, lies, and betrayals
Surround me.
Trust no one but myself.
Hurting just to comfort the pain.
When will I learn my purpose in life?
When will I see where the truth lies?
Darkness in my shroud,
And disguise.
No one knows who I really am.
For protection I use...

Realize
The doctor says I'm sick. I just think I've smoked too much dope and snorted too much klonopin. Ha! With your fancy degree and white jacket dont you realize? I've been lying all this time.
I realize that life is full of lies. But what gets me is the gullible and trustful persons. It's hard to feel sorry for someone who falls for it every time.
I pulled back my hair and stuck my fingers down my throat. Gagging I couldn't help but think that this is just one more lie...a lie that feels good. Control feels good.
Everytime I sneak a smoke, every time I vomit after I eat, and every...

Crazy Ass Poem
I'm so sick of fucking rhyming
These aren't even poems anymore
Just what I am thinking
Unafraid. Bullshit.
I'm afraid of everything
I push myself on purpose
'Cause I won't be left behind,
I won't be one of them
Mindless and put in position.
They don't even feel a fraction of what I'm feeling
Their heads would twist and turn
Kind of like mine right now.
Impersonations are just as well
They can't deal with it right now
I'm not better just different.
I might be worse, I don't know.
Unfinished
Not blaming ...

An Adventure
I just happen to know
What it feels like
I just happen to know
How hard it must be
I knew what I was getting myself into
I didn't realize the consequences
I knew what I was getting myself into
I just thought it would be so much easier
I can't stand it anymore
So I took that handful of pills
I can't stand it anymore
So I closed my eyes and let myslef float
How does one explain
The pain, the anguish
How does one explain
The anger, the absurdity
I will find my way back eventually
After I find...

Just one more time
I closed my eyes
And his arms held me tight
I closed my eyes
While he kissed me on the lips
I closed my eyes
So hard, so wet
I closed my eyes
I felt pleasure, not a hint of guilt
I closed my eyes
And moaned so loud he put his hand to my mouth
I closed my eyes
And knelt on the floor
I closed my eyes
And took him in
I closed my eyes
As he caressed my face
I closed my eyes
I care not to wear a ring
I closed my eyes
I felt that hard metal on my face
I closed my eyes
And left the room
I closed my eyes
I...

Murder
Murder
Her dead brown eyes stared at me from her picture. Shiny blonde hair framed her oval shaped face. That fucking piece of crap of a car slammed into her innocent body. 15. 15 years old and lying in the middle of the street. He ran of course, like any coward would do. 17. 17 years old and running from the law, running from a life behind bars. Her friends cradled her limp body to the sidewalk. Screaming and crying the paramedics pulled them away. Pumping on her chest and blowing life into her lungs for over an hour all they could do was apologize. Just 21 months, not even 2 years since...

When I was Deemed Stable
When things are meant to be broken
The world is officially okay with me
When the water stops running
I know it is time to swim
When I knew that I loved you
I ran right out of that room
WHen the sun stops shining
I put on my sunglasses
When fear runs the world
I put a smile on my face
When I heard his voice
I screamed
When He calls upon me
I know that I am officially sane
When volcanoes erupt and lava splatters the ground
I stand strong infront of my house
When I heard his name
I turned deaf
When the earth quakes
I...

He said
He kissed me right in front of my friends
Smearing red all over my face he said, “You know I love you.”
He held my hand in front of the world
Making me grin he said, “You know you are everything to me.”
I met him three years ago
And everytime I see his face I learn something new
Like his favorite color is green
Like the color of my eyes, so doubtful
He catered to my needs in front of the train passengers
Warmth spread over my body and he said, “You know you are the best.”
He spared me no expense at the store
Curious as to how I was to...
