Poet Introduction
I am good but i am not an angel.I sin but i am not the devil. I have friends but i am not the peacemaker. -Marilyn Monroe
Shadow
There are too many voices inside your head,
telling you that your life is dead?
Too many dark clouds hand above you;
dark in the sky, hover as they do;
Too many decisions;
Just make the right one...
Ending your life won't help anyone.
Not even yourself;
There are people out there that need you!
This string is hanging by thread;
this material is ripping apart,
please don't go and make things bad,
I promise,
things will get better.

Take One for A Thousand
A lonely kid sat in their room alone.
Staring at the blue wall that stood before him.
'Blue is such a boring color. I see it every day,
when i look out my bedroom window.'
Suddenly, there was a repetitive knock on his bedroom door.
He refused to answer it, and left the lock locked on his door.
Soon the knocking died away, and footsteps disappeared down the hall.
He lay down on bis back and stared at the black,ashy roof.
'Black resembles darkness and shadow. is that what life is supposed to be?Darkness and shadow?'
In his head, he knew it wasn't...

In Their Eyes
In their eyes she is perfect.But in her mind,not slightly. She wants to change so much about herself, it's tearing her emotions apart.But they would not accept her change as easily as her fake;no flaws when your pretending?She begins to see herself as someone who can't change;struggling to find love that will love her back;she lingers under her mask.No one would accept the real her. No one will think anything of her...and no one will love her.She shadowed by the missing self confidence. SHE DOESN'T HAVE SELF CONFIDENCE.SHE WANTS TO CHANGE. But she knows she cannot. She'll ruin everything...

Whispers
Can you hear those whispers?
floating through the air, the wind like
lost, broken voices?
Do they ring in your ears like a
echoing chime of a bell,
sending call to the world that the sun has arose.
Can you hear those ancient whispers that i can?
Am i going crazy,
like people are saying i am?
Can you hear those whispers floating through the waves of the
crashing sea,
reflections of people lost between ripples of waves,
and the rain pours down from the sky,
nothing happy.
Let me ask you something;
Are you...
floating through the air, the wind like
lost, broken voices?
Do they ring in your ears like a
echoing chime of a bell,
sending call to the world that the sun has arose.

Jealousy
The moon looks over the sun;
jealous and broken.
For the sun does not give shade;but light and warmth.
The moon casts a shadow over the world...
casting a blackness over people's eyes.
The moon is pale;white and plain.
The sun is a ball of fire,
water reflecting back it's sparkle...
But in the black sky the moon sits; surrounded by stars
the moon does not care about.
Through the day the moon's shadow lingers in the sky;
watching over the sun
Jealousy forming over it like a swarm of bees.
There it sits in awe, ...
jealous and broken.

Laugh
Some people say i'm strange,
some people say i'm crazy,
some call me sad
some call me bitchy,
but I am not strange
i will admit,
i am a little crazy,
but i'm not overly sad,
not a little bitchy
in fact i'm quite happy,
and i LAUGH at people who despise me.
Not only do they assume who I am, before they even know me,
but constantly rumor and talk about me.
but i only laugh at their guilty faces
cause i know there's no innocence,
that can hold them in their places.
Maybe they should 'chatter'...

Greed
Once upon a time in a faraway land there lived a queen. The king had passed away unfortunately and left his kingdom to his wife, Victoria.When he died, she made a promise to her kingdom, saying that if she chose greed for the contentment of herself over the kingdom's happiness, they had permission to kill her, or to banish her from her own kingdom.
When she made this promise, she should've been sure. But she wasn't.
Victoria obviously had a daughter, the next in line for the throne. Her name was Sienna. Victoria and her kingdom cherished and nurtured her daughter very...

Lottie Rose
Lottie Rose,
the one i used to see,
once a fortnight,
for 162 days.
She was a baby when I left,
my little sister and me,
little lottie rose,
where are you now?
Not in that terrible place now,
are you little lottie?
My little baby sister,
one that aged of almost three,
years old,
I had to leave her on her first birthday party,
the 17th of July,
I hope she's happy now.
little lottie Rose,
I still remember her little chuckle,
that she always made when I hurt myself, ...

Petals In The Wind
Please just let it go,
just leave the petals in the wind,
just save yourself the harm and regret,
of those memories now fading,
Please just let it go,
Let your thoughts take over you,
fly like the birds do,
no regret, no lies.
I know it's happier this way,
letting your petals fly in the wind,
watch them glide through the sky,
circling in the wind,
Now say hello to your mind,
being one of your kind,
talking to you when you need to hide,
just let these petals glide...

Your Never Over
Stuck on replay,
the same old thing,
watching yourself
over and over again,
making the same stupid mistake,
trying to forget it
but how can you forget it,
if your never over?
Please live,
Please enjoy,
live life in fast forward!
Don't end this life so soon,
when you've experienced nothing of life!
Have you sailed the seas?
Floated in air?
Have you dreamt before?
Your never over,
so live for more!

Never Think
Never think,
And so the flower's petals fall to the ground,
the clouds are chased away,
fearful of the sound,
a dark shade falls,casting shadow over the sun,
Now that things that have been said and done;
The wrong decision has been made!
And wrong to encounter such a problem like this?
You've put the world in strife!
Taking people's only lives...
Things can't be taken back as easily as
things are done;
And yet you've done this only for fun?
Think back through your life,
do you have any regret?
any thing you should've...

Paper Flowers
Welcome to my mind of paper flowers,
Where i dwell on my own for ours,
Where everything is wonderful,
Where everything is based on what you dream
Welcome to where nothing can go wrong,
Not in my mind of paper flowers!
The clouds are balls of cotton floating gracefully through the
ocean blue sky,
No one ever thinks or wants to die
There is no complications,
or frustrations to make people cry
In my mind of paper flowers...
Smile!:)
