Poet Introduction
eh
Maps
when the moonlight streams in through our window
kiss me
trace
the
map
of
scars
on
your
heart
into
the
small
of
my
back
and forget them
and remember that my love for you
consumes me
you are so beautiful
i crave the taste of your innocence
kiss me
trace
the
map
of
scars
on
your
heart
into
the
small
of
my
back
and forget them
and remember that my love for you
consumes me
you are so beautiful
i crave the taste of your innocence

2 am
I stay up late
And i chainsmoke
Cigarettes
Because im not
Excited
For tomorrow
I'd like to stay in the
Soft velvet of 2 am
Where everything
Is so much more
Painful
And i can
Deal with it as i
Choose
And i chainsmoke
Cigarettes
Because im not
Excited
For tomorrow
I'd like to stay in the
Soft velvet of 2 am
Where everything
Is so much more
Painful
And i can
Deal with it as i
Choose

Boom.
Don't worry if i die tonight, the world don't accept my kind
I guess that you could call me sick, not in body, but in mind
I think of all the darkest things that could drive anyone insane
There's scars marking my body, telling the stories of my pain
Make sure before you judge me that you're 100% right
I'm sorry i always look like this, I never sleep at night
I'm sorry i'm too drained to fake another smile
Give me a little break, i'll recuperate in awhile
If this is what it takes for me to stay another day
Then i'm sorry darling, but i just can't...

I'm Awful at Titles
If you could leave and start anew, tell me, would you do it?
Life is simple, so i hear, they say there's nothing to it
Well then maybe i'm not living yet, i'm not having a simple time
I'd say life if like a poem, there's not always an easy rhyme
Sometimes your pen runs out of ink, sometimes your pencil breaks
Sometimes you can't do what you want, there's just too much at stake
Sometimes you can't erase what you've put on the paper
Sometimes you can't write a rough draft and go back to change it later
Sometimes you write of all the things that break...

I'm f**king Sorry
This depression seems endless, it's like wave after wave
The feel of ending it all is what i honestly crave
I'm sorry i couldn't make you happy like i promised
I'm sorry i hurt you cuz i just couldn't be honest
Understand that i love you in every sense of the phrase
And seeing your warm smile always makes my day
I wish i could've shown you what i'd always see
I wish i could express how much you mean to me
But now you're walking away from all we ever had
I've never wanted to hear you say you love me so bad
Will you ever be willing to look at me...

Stay Away
Why aren't i sorry
For the things i do wrong?
I haven't felt guilty
In far too long
My conscience ran off
What a horrid mistake
Now i break peoples hearts
Like it's a piece of cake
And i don't care that i steal
That i cheat and i lie
I don't mind that i use you
And leave you to die
It doesn't bother me anymore
When i do things i shouldn't
I'll make out with your girlfriend
And tell you? I wouldn't
I guess you don't understand
I don't care that i'm 'bad'
Call me whatever you want
It won't make me...

I Give You My All
Father, please save me
From the mess i've made of myself
I'm on my knees, i'm begging you. Please
I desperately need your help
Scoop me up and hold me close
Like you did before i ran away
I recognize it was me you chose
In that moment on that amazing day
When i gave up my life
And said "I'm all yours
Do what you must
And i'll open the door
Wash me clean
Of my past mistakes
I know you've seen
Me on my darkest days
You were sleign like a villain
Beaten and starved
To pay for my sins
And give me...

Baby boy
You’re wrapped up tight
Please won’t you sleep
Through the night?
You’ve been crying for days
Like a baby should
But please, stop for a minute?
A normal baby would
Mom tells me to go to bed
The baby’s down, and with a look of peace
She bids me goodnight
And goes to sleep
What time is it?
4 am?
Somebody’s crying
Is it my brother again?
Then a terrible feeling
That’s my mother
And I hear her whisper
‘I think he’s been smothered’.
There’s a lump in my throat
Ambulance engines are...
You’re wrapped up tight

Fight For You
You're by yourself, all alone
That's all you've ever really known
Fight, and fight, and fight some more
You want to get out, but you can't find the door
I see the way you live your life
You never want drama, but always deal with strife
You're sick and tired of living like this
And some days you just can't fight the darkness
You're left with scars on your body and heart
Life's a bitch and it's torn you apart
Sometimes you wonder if you'll make it through
Always remember I'm fighting for you
You can lay down and I'll watch over you...

Not Your Fault
What can I say
To make you believe
That this isn't your fault
It's all because of me
My lying and sneaking
And acting like a sleuth
I've got this weird problem
With tellng the truth
It got me into trouble
And now i'm missing you
I'm working real hard
Cuz i really like you
I promise, my love
It'll all be okay
Nothing in this world
Could make me go away
And when I tell you I love you
With all of my heart
I honestly mean it
And nothing will tear us apart
To make you believe
That this isn't your fault
It's all because of me
My lying and sneaking
And acting like a sleuth
I've got this weird problem
With tellng the truth
It got me into trouble
And now i'm missing you
I'm working real hard
Cuz i really like you
I promise, my love
It'll all be okay
Nothing in this world
Could make me go away
And when I tell you I love you
With all of my heart
I honestly mean it
And nothing will tear us apart

I haven't said i'm never glad
Just these past few days
Or months
Or weeks
I'm feeling rather sad
I'm not sure what to make of this
Somedays sleep is like a sweet abyss
I forget my worries til next morn
All day my body and heart are worn
I've cried myself to sleep at night
I've danced around in pure delight
I've fought the urge to use the blade
I tell myself my joy's delayed
I see the scars on my friends arms
I know the feel of a broken heart
Sometimes my best friends are what keep me sane
Most time I just smile...

My View
I simply can't do it
Fall in love, i mean
They say there's nothing to it
It's called 'falling' for a reason
My view is slightly twisted, you see
The key part of falling is hitting the ground
That's how it is for me
I've fallen enough to avoid it for awhile
I'm truly sorry i can't love you right
I'm interested in love, i guess that's a start
But i have this terrible fright
That i'll only end up breaking your heart
I know you don't expect it from me
We're just taking things one day at a time
Month by month, no, week by week...
