Still
Waiting
For someone to come
A chivalrous hero
A rescuer or sorts
Nothing
But the silent beat of my heart
No one comes
Not like I expected them too
Darkness
It fills every corner
Every craves
Each and every moment
Stillness
As I lye awake
Waiting for nothing
All the while feeling the pain
Stinging
The cuts are still bleeding
Funny that they would
The pain makes it hurt less
Irony
That is all my life is
All an ironic joke
A girl with nothing feels everything
Better...

Her mirror
I look in the mirror but I what do I see
There is nothing left but a fragment of me
There is nothing but a disregarded face
An empty nothing filled with regret and disgrace
How long has it been since I smiled
I know it must have been quite a while
Ever since I took a wrong turn down the path of life
Since then it's been endless battles and strife
Why I continue looking I cant quite figure
Something of me must still linger
But she's buried down beneath the scars and lies
Tattered and dismayed by everyone who gave up and said their goodbyes...
There is nothing left but a fragment of me

Since then it's been endless battles and strife
Why I continue looking I cant quite figure
Something of me must still linger

Life story
(this is more of me than anything you will read of my work...which is why it isn't as great of a read)
Two parents who's love was great
Three children who then divorced their fate
Man alone with no one to hold
Married again, a woman even more cold
Constantly running from spouses
Mother moved us in and out of houses
Then that cold shell of a woman who married dad
Everyday made us wish she never had
With no home to call my own
I wandered feeling ugly and alone
No friends to help me through
No one to tell me my thought were untrue...
Two parents who's love was great
Three children who then divorced their fate

Married again, a woman even more cold
Constantly running from spouses

Everyday made us wish she never had
With no home to call my own
I wandered feeling ugly and alone
No friends to help me through
No one to tell me my thought were untrue...

Fear
Fear
Thoughts of shear terror
Pure destruction
Bottom teer
Surrounded
Blind folded spinning in circles
Dumbfounded
No sound comes out of the scream
Lost
Turn a cold shoulder
Directionless in the frost
Colder and colder
Tired
Counting each sheep
Trying to fall asleep
This time for good
Listening
Nothings happening
It never does
Tears glistening in the dark
Alone
No emotion shown
Death is a gift
In which cannot be indulged
Heart pounding
Blood rushing
Veins...
Thoughts of shear terror
Pure destruction
Bottom teer
Surrounded
Blind folded spinning in circles
Dumbfounded

Her skin
Each slit is a deadly risk
The pain she writes on a list
Her pen a blade, her paper her wrist
While she writes, she clenches her fist
"It doesn't hurt" She says
While the tears she sheds
Alone in her room in her bed
Not another word to be said
She goes to school the next day
Only, she feels the same way
Carving into her lunch tray
"They made my bed, and here I lay"
She's given up all thought
A broken girl the world forgot
She walks slowly down the hall
She presses her back against the wall
...

Blur
Blind to light
Distorted sight
An endless fight
Never right
Memory fleeting
Dead heart beating
Old scars bleeding
Sick of breathing
Voice a whisper
Destructive twister
Thoughts too sinister
Vision a blister
Dark thoughts in my brain
All the while loving the pain
Born wrongfully into shame
Life is an unforgiving game
Living in hell
Empty shell
From the top, I fell
Never okay, never well
No more cares
Blank stares
Nothing to share
Heart a tear
Life a blur
Emotions...

Destruction
Like a boulder that crashes that crashes down from the mountain side
It crumbles upon her, so much so she wants to die
Her light dims out in the midst of it all
If she had only the strength not to fall
She is seen everyday, but never heard
She sits in the back of class, never to speak a word
She is falling apart, blinded by pain
A silent ghost swallowed by shame
She is the fork in the road
The debt that is owed
She is the cloud that blocks the sun
The girl who has never won
A silent path, she journeys on
Every choice she makes...
It crumbles upon her, so much so she wants to die
Her light dims out in the midst of it all
If she had only the strength not to fall
She is seen everyday, but never heard
She sits in the back of class, never to speak a word

A silent ghost swallowed by shame
She is the fork in the road
The debt that is owed

The girl who has never won
A silent path, she journeys on

Hope
She calls but nobody answers
While she walks, she's surrounded by dancers
The ones who know who they are and why
She's trapped behind bars of shy
She's all alone but nobody sees
She has no idea who in this world she should be
She cries because of the frustration inside
She's screaming, and yet she still hides
How can she ask when nobodies there
How can she love with no one to share?
How can she try with no one to show
How can she live, when nobody knows?
The hope inside that someone will come
Turns its back on her and runs...

Ana
She looks in the mirror disgusted
As if something inside of her erupted
It's been this way for sometime now
She'd get rid of this fat, this was her vow
She would never be happy until she was transparent
Ever conscience of her decreasing diet
Unaware too soon it would be too late
This body of hers she couldn't more hate
Stripped to the bone she stares a little harder
Ana shields the truth with her armor
Mortified by this bodies flesh
Dying because of the grappling stress
"What is the point in eating" Ana says...

Sick
I'm dying
Not dead but trying
Sick of lying
Buying others more time
Realize won't you?
Don't I look like a statue?
To forget and being a new..
You don't have a clue
Seeking joy
Feeling dreary, acting coy
Broken hearted child with lost toy
No joy...no joy
Empty and dark
Without a journey to embark
An insignificant fish to a world of shark
Life that's bleak and stark
Lonely, Lonely, Lonely
So tired of being phony
Congrats life, you've won your trophy
Only now ever more lonely
Too late for...
Not dead but trying
Sick of lying
Buying others more time

The Box
He is gone.
Fled the sanctity of solitude only to be shot down
They peeled him apart limb from limb
They threw his heart into a box and locked it away
Black.
All around the box
Trapped.
Suffocating slowly. Slowly.
As the dioxide escapes his lips
Breath in. Breath out.
The imminence of the situation becomes more intense
Tap. Tap.
A knock on the box
Fear rattles his torn bones
A Girl.
She whispers hello
A shout back to go
But no
She won't because she understands
...

A Thought
It starts with a thought
A kind of stirring interaction
something smaller than a fraction
and it doesn't take much to start
It's something that fights your heart
A tug here and a prod there
It can make you run in circles
Trying to make the fire you started disappear
Too late
This thought is a disease
It spreads through your bones, it does not halt or freeze
Once you open the cage of your mind to set it free
You're a goner
You crumble and become weak at the knee
Begging for help, shouting your plea
It doesn't...
