POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Love or Lust
font=Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Grande]
Love or Lust
To touch or trust
To settle for no passion
Or live a life where nothing but your body is appreciated fashion
A life where your heart's alone.
I love lust
I have a need for the excitement
The push and pull friction
Attachment, Attraction
Contentment together as a multifaceted distraction
Detachment from the rest of time.
As an outlet for my frustration
A reflexion of my sorrow
I treat each moment of lust
Like you and I will have no tomorrow
Because I know how it...

As I Lay Beside You
As I lay beside you
In the warmth of the bed
The coldness outside, swarms inside
As I try to rest my head on your chest
The heat I feel
Masks the truth
There's cold in your heart
My head tells me
Because my own heart
Isn't allowed close to you...
In the warmth of the bed
The coldness outside, swarms inside
As I try to rest my head on your chest
The heat I feel
Masks the truth
There's cold in your heart
My head tells me
Because my own heart
Isn't allowed close to you...

A Dream
When reality hits you
And you wonder why
For everybody whom, you've ever dropped away the facade
Ended up being the ones who made you cry...
Everyday I dream a dream
Containing nothing but a hope
That digs deeper than the skin
And holds together stronger than bone
Somewhere, there's gotta be people out there
Who know the real reason
The reason for our existence
Is not to be wasted on indecence
I shake the moment away for a minute
And try to grasp the very concept
Of a place where we're all completely naked
Everything...

I Wanted to Tell You...
I just wanted to tell you
That I'm sorry for what happened
I gave you too much too quick
Wish I would of taken things slower...
I'm usually not like that
But I don't regret doing it
Cuz i'm not that kind of person
Who holds onto these these things
I just learn from them...
I don't hate you
I won't hold a grudge
I just don't want things to be
Awkward between us...
I wanted to try and fix things
Before it was the wrong time to
If you don't care, then you don't care
I care though...
And that's why...
That I'm sorry for what happened
I gave you too much too quick
Wish I would of taken things slower...
I'm usually not like that

Awkward between us...
I wanted to try and fix things

I care though...

Give Me That Closeness
Verse 1:
~ All you boys out there
Who use us girls for our looks
Look what ya done to me
Look what ya done to me
I'm a walking heartbreak
Used to being played
I see it coming
But I don't look away
Chorus:
Give me that closeness
Just for a minute
It don't take too much
I'll jump right in and give it
Yeah, I wanna trust
When you say you'll stay
I wasn't thinking straight
Now it's too late
Verse 2:
What's going through your mind
When you say these things
You're really weak...

Lost
Verse 1:
~ He tells you that you're different
From who you used to be
He don't know what it is
But he don't like what he sees
You tell him that you're still the same
Deep down inside
Although you might seem different
From what's on the outside
Bridge:
And you thought if you were more like him
And did the same things he did
You'd become even closer
But it just did the opposite
Chorus:
Don't change yourself
For the person you love
Because it won't last
It won't last
It will just...

The Questions I Ask Myself
Do you ever ask yourself,
Does he really love me?
Do you ever ask yourself,
Is it all an act?
Is it the magic of the first time,
That keeps him from turning his back?
Is he serious?
Or is it just for sex?
How long will this last,
Before it becomes a mess?
Can he even feel this way,
When you can't see how he could yourself?
When every time you look in the mirror
It just brings more doubt
Can it be true?
That we're all meant for, just one?
And if it is..
Could that one, be your first one?
These are the...

More Than My Body
I'm more than my body
More than what you see
Take a look deeper
You'll see the soul inside me
It's not that hard to find
I'll open up to you
If you'll just let me say
What I need most is someone like you
Few people stay around to listen
Few people seem to care
When someone finally does, it feels like I don't deserve them
And those people aren't often everywhere
It's become so hard to trust
When I only seem to disappoint
Or when others become jealous of the attention
No need to be jealous of those boys
Those...

Rain
Pieces of me shatter, splatter
like the falling of the rain
Slipping, sliding into the cracks in the pavement
Hiding from the warmth the sun brings
Reminding you of your shame
The Pain
From what you don't have to gain
Because you lost it all
Dripping down the drain
like the falling of the rain
Slipping, sliding into the cracks in the pavement
Hiding from the warmth the sun brings
Reminding you of your shame
The Pain
From what you don't have to gain
Because you lost it all
Dripping down the drain

Stop Hoping
Chorus:
~Just stop hoping that he'll call when he says he will
Stop believing everything you hear
Because the truth is nobody cares anymore
If they lie to you and you shed a tear
They only use you just to show they can
And add you to their ex list
That's all they really wanted in the first place
And they'll leave you remembering their kiss
So just stop hoping that there's someone out there
Who ends up being different from the rest
Stop hoping that he'll call when he says he will
With some things there's no need to always hope for...

Reality
Sometimes I wonder where it went
I don't have it anymore, so did I just forget
This direction my life has turned
Nothing will ever be the same
I don't need yet more to learn
Everything I had before, is all that meant anything
Now nothing means anything
Everything's ending
This is supposed to be a new beginning
Not a route to routine with no meaning
Nobody asks questions
Must not go to extremes
Dreamers stop believing
Now nothing means anything
I've lost the love
Of what it meant to be me
It all fell away
To more...

Weaknesses
I can't tell you that I miss you
Right now is not the time
I can't tell you what I'm thinking
I'm afraid of being hurt but I cant lie
What if I was to tell you
How I feel about some things
Are you okay with me complaining
Or will that bring back too many bad memories
I almost need to ask you
If I can spill my heart to you
Because I'm unsure how you'll take it
If I just went and said the truth
The truth is I'm still hurting inside
Yes, I may cover it up most of the time
But it's always going to be there
And sometimes it...
