POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Dream
I am a girl
Who slept for years and years
When I awoke
I blew a kiss to my father
And the house fell down
When I walked out the street
And blew a kiss to everyone else
They blew away like paper
Everyone flew away to be free
And now I was alone
Is this real
Or am I still dreaming?
Who slept for years and years
When I awoke
I blew a kiss to my father
And the house fell down
When I walked out the street
And blew a kiss to everyone else
They blew away like paper
Everyone flew away to be free
And now I was alone
Is this real
Or am I still dreaming?

Save Me
My tears fall like acidic rain
I no longer feel pain
I am numb
Yet my tears still come
How is that possible
I mean even in this hospital
I know that I can't be weak
So its strenght I must seek
Or I will fall from grace
and lose your embrace
I beg for you to save me
I no longer feel pain
I am numb
Yet my tears still come
How is that possible
I mean even in this hospital
I know that I can't be weak
So its strenght I must seek
Or I will fall from grace
and lose your embrace
I beg for you to save me

R.U.N
I listen to your every lie
Each word penetrating deep
I run
I try to escape
Yet I fail
For you consume me
I'm mixed up
And I depend sole on you
We goaroundincircles
But you always catch me
I'm sad
Depressed
Why can't I be alone?
Maybe I am just like a child
Who needs constant love and attention
But from you?
You who hurts me
Who cuts me
Who beats me
I am surely dreaming
For this endless nightmare can notbe real
I'm weak now
No confidence or self esteem
You are not to blame
I did this to myself...

Humanitys Way
In this world there are
Things humans cannot comprehend
In fact most are just hateful creatures
With no honor to speak of
Like politicians who try to mask
Their evil desires
As noble deeds
As if they are sacrificing themselves
For the greater good
We doubt what we have done is the right thing
when it is far too late
But I guess all people are betrayers
It's just self preservation
I feel as though their guilt is just an emotion
That helps comfort them
As though they too are suffering
And this gives them some degree of hope...

The Night Mummy Died
My name is Laiila,
I was once ten
this is what happened
while i was in bed
He came through the window
Quite as can be
Mommy got up
Darkness all she could see
He came for her jewels
But she put up a fight
If only he hadn't hit her
With all of his might
I heard her scream "Help me
But i did care
This was for all the times
She was unfair
She got what she deserved
To die in an attic,
All alone filled with dread
And panic
My Mommy's now dead
I would have been free ...

My Eyes
Tears welling
Heart breaking
When did my facade begin to crack
Does no body see through
This laughter and that smile
Can no-one hear my cries
Do you know that I am fake
Happy on the outside
But broken on the inside
I am ashamed
And lie to make it through the day
To show what everyone expects
But not what they deserve
I wonder how they can be so blind
I'm not,
I see them,
Their hearts are dark
Their body's feel dirty
Their eyes are hollow
Their souls are regretful
And still their conscience is reeking
with...

Does It Hurt?
Does it hurt?
To be choked with vicious words
To be beaten with angry limbs
To be glared at with haunting eyes
To be seen as dirt and trash
Does it hurt?
To have your innocence taken away
To scream yet hear no sound
To fight and fight and yet fail
To wash and yet never be clean
Doe it hurt?
To cut your skin and watch blood run
To be locked inside your head
To never dream a good dream
To fail when trying to rise once more
Does it hurt?
To look in the mirror
To cry yourself to sleep
To listen to peoples lies...
To be choked with vicious words

To wash and yet never be clean
Doe it hurt?
To cut your skin and watch blood run

To never dream a good dream
To fail when trying to rise once more
Does it hurt?
To look in the mirror
