POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am Kingston and i am 19 years old
Hope
At a glance,
Took no chance,
Peering in,
Struggling,
It ended with:
Red eyes,
Red flags,
Red lines.
You said that you were clean,
You said that you had changed, but when the daylight came,
I found you just the same.
Now I'm at a loss for words,
Now look at where we are at.
These days you think you feel the worst, The straw that breaks your back.
You can work yourself to the bone.
True but don't hurt your own home
Lose like life might not condone.
Look at the proof all around you!
How...

Football Rule #1
In this game of life
Your family is the field
The ball is your trust
The cleats are your kindness
The pads are your soul
The helmet is your life
So, no matter how fast you are
Or how good you are
Always leave
The ball
The cleats
The pads
And the helmet
On the field
Your family is the field
The ball is your trust
The cleats are your kindness
The pads are your soul
The helmet is your life
So, no matter how fast you are
Or how good you are
Always leave
The ball
The cleats
The pads
And the helmet
On the field

Got Used
To the one who used me:
My bones are weak
From carrying you on my back
For so long
I satisfied my strength for you
But now I can no longer
Smile Without pain
And here you are
Walking just fine
Stronger than ever
My bones are weak
From carrying you on my back
For so long
I satisfied my strength for you
But now I can no longer
Smile Without pain
And here you are
Walking just fine
Stronger than ever

Mind
To my mind:
We are at war, you and me
An everlasting of exchange
Insults and new wounds
And apologies
That always come just a little too late
By the time you say
I'm sorry
I have already absorbed the blow
A new battle scar has risen on my skin
My body cannot defend itself from you anymore
And I'm scared a truce will never come
We are at war, you and me
An everlasting of exchange
Insults and new wounds
And apologies
That always come just a little too late
By the time you say
I'm sorry
I have already absorbed the blow
A new battle scar has risen on my skin
My body cannot defend itself from you anymore
And I'm scared a truce will never come

lovers places
It hurts when
God gives you a voice
But it's not permitted
to be heard
By those who
matter in our lives
Some people will
never learn to listen
It seems they haven't
got it in them
That's got to be
the saddest thing
Because it never
hurts to listen
God gives you a voice
But it's not permitted
to be heard
By those who
matter in our lives
Some people will
never learn to listen
It seems they haven't
got it in them
That's got to be
the saddest thing
Because it never
hurts to listen

Life sadness
Sometimes I feel like I am just a lost boy
in a fucked-up world.
My mind is so cluttered,
I'm an over thinker,
I guess you would blame it on
posttraumatic stress disorder.
Under the assumption that
she just wanted attention,
you decided to ignore her.
You failed to realize that somebody,
somewhere would fucking adore her
in a fucked-up world.

Tick tock tick tock
Tick tock.... Tick tock
Life is counting down on an endless clock
Tick tock.... Tick tock
What if I controlled this clock
Would I stop feeling pain
Would my world stop be being filled with rain
Would my world finally be good
Just like it should
Tick tock.... tick tock
I feel like a broken rock
Tick tock.... Tick tock
I wish my life wasn't controlled by a clock
Would my life finally be good
I am so...

Drugs
Drugs will make you lose your mind
Drugs will make you crazy
Drugs will make you lose your kind
You’ll lose the time, chase me
Drugs will make you lose your way
Drugs will make you hazy
Drugs will make you lose your day
You’ll lose the plot, take me
Drugs will make you lose your goal
Drugs will make you lazy
Drugs will make you lose your soul
Drugs will make you crazy
Drugs will make you lose your kind
You’ll lose the time, chase me
Drugs will make you lose your way
Drugs will make you hazy
Drugs will make you lose your day
You’ll lose the plot, take me
Drugs will make you lose your goal
Drugs will make you lazy
Drugs will make you lose your soul

Life struggle
I’ve come to know
This world is ending
And in it I only have you
From trusted sources, I know
This world is going to end
And I’m happy I have only you.
The world is ending now
As I write this piece
Youth is dead
Youth has been dead for a while
Please flow out
Please do, the helpless river cries
Or is it the wretched canal?
My memory is clogged
Oh please oh please
Don’t get stuck
In plastic
For
I only have you.
I only had you.
This world is ending
And in it I only have you
From trusted sources, I know
This world is going to end
And I’m happy I have only you.
The world is ending now
As I write this piece
Youth is dead
Youth has been dead for a while
Please flow out
Please do, the helpless river cries
Or is it the wretched canal?
My memory is clogged
Oh please oh please
Don’t get stuck
In plastic
For
I only have you.
I only had you.

Sadness fills my mind
Sadness fills my mind
In my world, no one is kind
Holding back all the tears
While no one is near
I have nobody to talk to
I just have nothing to do
Anger fills my mind
In my world no one can find
Crying in my head
While people wish i was dead
Happiness never fills my mind
In my world I hide behind
I wish I had somebody to talk to
I wish I had something to do
I just want to say my goodbye
I know people...
In my world, no one is kind
Holding back all the tears
While no one is near
I have nobody to talk to
I just have nothing to do
Anger fills my mind
In my world no one can find
Crying in my head
While people wish i was dead
Happiness never fills my mind
In my world I hide behind
I wish I had somebody to talk to
I wish I had something to do
I just want to say my goodbye
I know people...

Death
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My mom wants me dead,
A chilling truth, too true.
Her whispers in shadows,
Her gaze cold as ice,
In her heart, darkness grows,
A silent, haunting vice.
Yet under the moon's gentle glow,
I find solace, a refuge to flee,
From the torment, I must go,
To find the light within me.
For though her words cut deep,
And her intentions seem dire,
I'll rise above, I'll...
Violets are blue,
My mom wants me dead,
A chilling truth, too true.
Her whispers in shadows,
Her gaze cold as ice,
In her heart, darkness grows,
A silent, haunting vice.
Yet under the moon's gentle glow,
I find solace, a refuge to flee,
From the torment, I must go,
To find the light within me.
For though her words cut deep,
And her intentions seem dire,
I'll rise above, I'll...
