POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
so many things to say, to write about, i want to give them to you to read, experience, judge, and decide for yourself if these are gems or stones.
Hotel
why cant you stay?
i know the wallpapers cracked, and the furniture dont match,
i know there are broken windows in the rooms and moss on the desks.
i know this old hotel is broken down and empty, but please stay.
what it lacks in beauty it makes up for in comfort,
with a soft place to rest after a long tiring day.
even though its a bit drafty, we have patchwork quilts and extra sweaters,
and ill bring soup whenever you call.
you promised youd stay and threw away the key.
but you left through the window, breaking it with our nicest chair.
please stay.

make me scream
taunting playful.
gentle bites.
soft scratches.
lights on pushing away the night.
oh baby make me squirm.
taunting passionate.
painful bites.
stinging scratches.
your fingers work me right.
oh baby make me moan.
delicious pain.
bruising bites.
bleeding scratches.
im a wolf in the night.
oh baby make me scream.

Dream Big No Matter What I Say
if there was nothing i could do why would i even try?
why would i struggle in this world for a way to survive?
if i couldn't find a way to make it and survive,
thered be no point to say, here i am, im alive.
but sometimes you gotta wake up and hear the music, smell the coffee.
cuz your dreams of fame and fortune are frankly useless, much too lofty.
but if you find a way to make it good for you, im by your side.
because everyone deserves to feel alive.

how many times can you break a heart before you cant put it back together?
youre the one who ended my hurt
but in the end you made it worse.
your words gave me happiness
but now all i hear is emptiness.
all i wanted was your touch
but you decided i was just too much.
how am i supposed to love again
with my heart as broken as it is?
but in the end you made it worse.
your words gave me happiness
but now all i hear is emptiness.
all i wanted was your touch
but you decided i was just too much.
how am i supposed to love again
with my heart as broken as it is?

Empty Boy
isnt it ironic that after theyre gone is when you need them the most?
after theyre gone is when youd tell them everything.
after theyre gone is when you REALLY need them.
forever you said then you called it quits.
wheres my forever?
you promised youd never leave me.
but youre gone.
what happened to "youre my universe"?
what happened to "i love you more than the stars"?
and all you have to say is
sorry.
id say thank you for everything but that sounds too final.
you kept me alive, now what?
you made me eat...

An Appology You'll Probably See As Pathetic And Attention Seeking
when we're down and need some cheering up.
i wont tell, and honey youre in luck.
ill help you turn your frown around.
ill fake a smile till your real one is found.
i lied to you
and im sorry, im sorry,
for everything i have done
im sorry, so sorry
it seems im the only one
whos at fault
im just blaming myself
its just, dont you see?
i want to get out,
i want to be free.
but with just a look
to the monsters i hide
i can tell i dont deserve
your love.
id promised you id keep myself alive.

if you met me
if you met me
youd see a sweet boy
a caring boy
a confident boy.
the kind you wouldnt be ashamed to take home to mother.
who wouldn't be in danger of your fathers anger.
if you knew me
youd know an insecure boy
a loyal boy
a lonely boy
the kind that wouldnt tell you hes sad just so you could be happy
the kind that would never leave
if you really knew me though
youd have seen my scars
youd have seen my tears
youd have seen all my fears
youd know im just a sad lonely boy
who doesnt know how to deal with anything...

Dear Boomers
My name is Leo
Im only 16.
I know that im mortal,
But i know what you mean.
You say we dont think,
That we're too reckless for our own good.
But the truth is we think too much,
More than we should.
Its not the 'Me' generation
Of selfishness and lies,
Its the 'We' generation
and thats what you despise.
We are afraid
For our futures and dreams.
We're angry at rips
In leadership seams.
We know what will happen,
We know it wont end well,
So We fight for our freedom
But its still just a hell.
We know that everything...

a song of sadness
sing a song of sadness
like rubies in the snow
bright red beads like blood drops
whos? nobody knows
sweetly sing of sadness
of special blends of tea
sing of sweets and smiles
rotting guts and cavities
someone you know despises you
they hate your heart and things that you do
their hateful tears corrupting
like sweet fears of loving
someone you know loves you
they adore your smile and things that you do
but they are strange and do not know
how to say 'i love you' so
sing a song of sadness
sweetly sings the crow...

new
youre new to this arnt you
this whole happiness deal
youre not sure if its okay yet
youre not certain how to act
i can see you falling back
falling back into old habits
its like a drug
the pain the heartache
why do you crave it?
are you a masochist or something?
i dont understand it
neither do you
do you.
youd rather the comfort of misery
than the strange new feeling of a smile
youre pathetic
youre not
it takes time to be happy
shut up goody goody
youre pathetic and you know it
its your fault you're like this...

We Are
We're demons in the dark
When we think no one can see.
We're angels in the light,
Though ourselves we deceive.
We're soldiers in a war
That no one cares to fight.
We're terrorists of wrong
Because we dont care about right.
We're the lost kids who just watch.
Too terrified to cry.
We're the parents that left
Ignorant to the goodbye.
We're nothing but no good sinners
And nothings going to change,
Nothings going to get better
If we just stay that way.
When we think no one can see.

We're the parents that left
Ignorant to the goodbye.
We're nothing but no good sinners
And nothings going to change,
Nothings going to get better
