POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Never Truly Fix Them
My family is dying
The kids are always crying
Food is what they need
But there's not enough to eat
Suffering is all they've known
Never really having a home
None of us really know our dads
Which makes the kids sad
I try to help but end up failing
I'm kept awake at night by their wailing
They're hearts I try to mend
But I can never truly fix them
The kids are always crying
Food is what they need
But there's not enough to eat
Suffering is all they've known
Never really having a home
None of us really know our dads
Which makes the kids sad
I try to help but end up failing
I'm kept awake at night by their wailing
They're hearts I try to mend
But I can never truly fix them

Live Another Day
These voices in my head
They wish I was dead
Maybe I should listen
Cut my wrist and watch the
blade glisten
The voices want control
To send me to the dark hole
They don't care that I'm strong
If they think they can take me,
they're wrong
I will win tonight
And I won't stop the fight
Screw those in my way
I'll live another day
They wish I was dead
Maybe I should listen
Cut my wrist and watch the
blade glisten
The voices want control
To send me to the dark hole
They don't care that I'm strong
If they think they can take me,
they're wrong
I will win tonight
And I won't stop the fight
Screw those in my way
I'll live another day

Shame (Dealing With Divorce)
Broken families
Children cry
They're left alone
To wonder why
Why my parents
Was it because of me
They say we'll be okay
But that I'm not gunna believe
They keep trying to
Fill my head with their lies
But late at night
I hear the harsh words and the sorrowful sighs
I finally convinced myself
That I'm the one to blame
I put a gun to my head
And put an end to their shame
Children cry
They're left alone
To wonder why
Why my parents
Was it because of me
They say we'll be okay
But that I'm not gunna believe
They keep trying to
Fill my head with their lies
But late at night
I hear the harsh words and the sorrowful sighs
I finally convinced myself
That I'm the one to blame
I put a gun to my head
And put an end to their shame

Freak
A freak is what they call me
Because I'm horribly different
Nobody here cares how I feel
So alone is how my time is spent
A freak is what they see
Because they just don't understand
Who are they to tell me
That love should be between a woman and a man
A freak is what I've become
Because my idea of love "is at fault"
But they can't stop how I feel
When I tell her I love her with all my heart
Because I'm horribly different
Nobody here cares how I feel
So alone is how my time is spent
A freak is what they see
Because they just don't understand
Who are they to tell me
That love should be between a woman and a man
A freak is what I've become
Because my idea of love "is at fault"
But they can't stop how I feel
When I tell her I love her with all my heart

No More
Blood coursing through my veins
As the knife gets plunged in deep
I'm losing grasp on reality
As in the darkness seeps.
I move the blade back and forth
Slicing up more skin
Adding to my pain
Is the only way I can win.
Curled up in the corner
In a puddle on the floor
Everyone just stares at me
As I become no more.
As the knife gets plunged in deep
I'm losing grasp on reality
As in the darkness seeps.
I move the blade back and forth
Slicing up more skin
Adding to my pain
Is the only way I can win.
Curled up in the corner
In a puddle on the floor
Everyone just stares at me
As I become no more.

Leaving
Screw this world
Screw this life
Fuck it I'm done
I'm leaving tonight
Not saying goodbye
I'm just gunna leave
I'm tired of this town
And the pain its caused me
I don't know where I'm going
But I'll figure that out when I can
I'm sorry if I hurt my friends
But they'd never understand
Off by myself
I'm starting to feel better
Maybe now I'll have the strength
To get my life back together
Screw this life
Fuck it I'm done
I'm leaving tonight
Not saying goodbye
I'm just gunna leave
I'm tired of this town
And the pain its caused me
I don't know where I'm going
But I'll figure that out when I can
I'm sorry if I hurt my friends
But they'd never understand
Off by myself
I'm starting to feel better
Maybe now I'll have the strength
To get my life back together

Will Anyone Cry?
I'm so wired
That I can hardly see
All because I took these pills
So I don't have to sleep
I take more each day
And let it rule my head
If I keep taking them
Maybe I'll be dead
Laying here in my room
Thinking of suicide
And wondering if I'll be missed
Or if anyone will cry.
That I can hardly see

And wondering if I'll be missed
Or if anyone will cry.

Not Named Yet
Laying here,
Just staring at the wall.
My mind is racing,
As I wait for the call.
Will it be good or bad?
These thoughts are making me sad.
Why does life pick on me?
Why must I be the one to bleed?
Someone shouts my name,
I stand attention to the sound.
I went to take a step,
Then I fell to the ground.
I wake up in a room,
That isn't mine.
I look around,
And the machines are all I find.
Why am I alone?
Doesn't anybody care?
Sometimes I think this life,
Is too much for my body to bare.
Just staring at the wall.
My mind is racing,
As I wait for the call.
Will it be good or bad?
These thoughts are making me sad.

Is too much for my body to bare.

Always Be Here
Baby don't you worry
You won't break my heart
I know this isn't a guarntee
But that I knew from the start.
All that really matters
Is right now we're together
And all we can hope for is
For things to keep getting better.
I know that you're scared
But please don't shed a tear
No matter what happens between us
I will always be here.

Bleeding Earth
The world suffers
More than we can comprehend
People act like its all okay
But how can they pretend?
Children are hungry
And scared
They've experienced so much pain
More than anyone should bare.
People hurting others
Acting like its a game
Murders happening everywhere
But society is to blame.
Why add to the madness?
It does more harm than good.
How about you think about this
Before you let our streets run with blood.
More than we can comprehend

Creature In The Mirror
There's a creature in the mirror
How can this be
Its twisted and corrupt
But looks just like me
The creature stares into my soul
And burns deep inside
But this creature is me
So how can I hide
To get rid of the creature
I punch the mirror hard with my hands
I scream out with pain
As blood runs down in strands
Curled up in a corner
Knees pulled to my face
The creature is gone from the mirror
But from my memory it can't be erased
How can this be
Its twisted and corrupt
But looks just like me
The creature stares into my soul
And burns deep inside
But this creature is me
So how can I hide
To get rid of the creature
I punch the mirror hard with my hands
I scream out with pain
As blood runs down in strands
Curled up in a corner
Knees pulled to my face
The creature is gone from the mirror
But from my memory it can't be erased

Love
My life is so consumed
By things that make me so confused
The pain of loving someone
When they won't love you
Giving them your heart
Just to see them tear it apart
Not knowing why you care so much
When they won't care for you
Fighting for them
Time and time again
Trying to prove yourselves
Wanting to be with them
Misery and happiness
Joined together as one
To you it might be called agony
To me its called love
By things that make me so confused
The pain of loving someone
When they won't love you
Giving them your heart
Just to see them tear it apart
Not knowing why you care so much
When they won't care for you
Fighting for them
Time and time again
Trying to prove yourselves
Wanting to be with them
Misery and happiness
Joined together as one
To you it might be called agony
To me its called love
