POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Still Me
I'm a puzzle
Scrambled
Messed up
Incomplete
A paper doll
Cut up
Taped together
Ripped apart
A favorite sweater
Worn often
Stained
Thrown away
A bird
Flying away
Looking from afar
Keeping distance
A snake
Quiet
Deadly
Ready to strike
I'm a handful and I don't try to hide it
I have done things I'm not proud of
I have been both the monster and the victim
But no matter what
I'm still me

Friends
The knife will not help you my dear friend
at the moment yes, it relieves the pain inside I know
believe me I know
but the ones who can help are us
Flesh and Blood standing before you
one with dark blonde hair and hazel eyes
the other with curly black hair and brown eyes
we will not let you fall and if you happen to do
we will fall with you
we are all tied together,connected by a cord within our own hearts
left alone we all self destruct and lose ourselves
I have done it and have seen it be done many times
we have all cracked like...

Frustrated Jealousy
Ugly
Fake
Annoying
Stupid
Trash
Slut
Whore
You are mine, though my heart is twisted and dark
Remember this
YOU ARE MINE
I cannot stand her and whenever she comes around
Well...lets just say keep the knives away from me
Or I will do something that you will regret
I never thought myself to be the jealous type
But I cannot stand having her near you,talking to you
All of it
I want to rip into her flesh-with my nails
Maybe then she'll be pretty
Oh, I'm sorry. That's your "best friend" isn't...

Too cold now
The cold is too much to bare
The frost biting at my eyelashes
Cheeks turning pink
Lips chapping and bleeding
So so
Cold
I can't stand it
Shivering alone in the NetherLands
While they sit comfy and warm
Heated by the happiness and love in which I know not
Hands no longer able to move
The frost turning them blue
Fighting the cold I move on
But the blizzard never lets up,it just keeps snowing
Until I'm blinded by white
Nothing else is visible
Just endless white, lonely cold nothing
I...

My Little Plan
Neither predator nor prey
It seems my demons have caught up to me again
I feel your arms reach out
To comfort me though while like this I push away
I know you love me,but here's the simple truth
I don't love you
Does that hurt? Did it strike a nerve?
Remember when you carelessly hit my nerves?
The ones that brought me to the brink of my sanity
And proved to me I cannot bare this much pain?
Cry me a river and get over it
You were just a mere idea,a chance
No I'm not high and mighty,I don't consider myself...

Love or Hate
I got what I wanted
You're away from her but now I feel so selfish
It would be easier to stay there instead of being in that hell called home
But there you are and here I
Am despising myself for putting you through this
For once I did nothing wrong because you were stupid and thoughtless
But I am still sorry
If it weren't for me you'd be away from that place
If it weren't for this jealousy things would be better
If you just listened and understood things would be fine
But they're not fine. Things are wrong and I feel lost
Lost without you...

Silly children
I watch as they tear themselves apart, slowly killing one another
part of me thinks to stop it
but where's the fun in that?
they must learn on there own that
when you play with fire
you can get burned
scorched
and scarred
Now now
lying broken on the floor
what have you done?
slowly dying I see
you're my friend
why do this to yourself
though you ignore the help you so desperatly need
Still we're by your side
selfish child
another heart broken
another life going up in the
flames
I told you to...

conflicted
I don't know what's right or wrong anymore
everything looks the same-every choice seems to be wrong
mistakes are always made
and words are always spoken
that can send you over the edge
friendship was never an option because
no one ever stayed
fearing the pain you pull away
but your hearts screaming for you to stay
and give it another try-another chance
letting someone in is unnatural
almost unreal
promises were always broken
and bridges always crumbled
ignoring the hurt you
Smile
and pretend that everything's okay
because you...

Torn
The mirror is always taunting me
showing me images that are not me but at the same time always was
the girl staring back laughs in my face though I did not smile
her twisted expression makes me feel ashamed of who I am
hiding behind clothes that are becoming ever looser
hiding behind the make up and fake laughter
sick of trying to be her mothers idea of 'perfect'
wondering if it would be easier just to end it all
NO!
I promised I wouldn't...
but the blade is so close
so tempting
I start to itch as I near closer to it
hearing the voices that...

Bestfriend. . .
Don't play with my feelings-I love the pain
Don't make me laugh-It'll never be the same
Don't say you care-I like you too much
Don't flash your smile-I can never touch
You're not mine-you're hers I know
I'll just ignore you-please leave me alone
It's easier than I thought-I can't walk away
I just want to hold you-I know I can't stay
It's all over-I'll just go home
This is the end - And forever be alone.
