Do you hear me?
Do you hear me god
I am talking to you
Do you hear me god
Look what you have put me through
All this bullshit I keep hearing
You’re a savior they say
You’re supposed to be a hero
So where’s my fucking saving
Do you hear me now god
When I am on my knees
Bloody and broken
Praying for the pain to stop
Do you see me now god
When I slash my wrists
To rid the demons for your vessel
The one you supposedly created out of love and compassion
I don’t feel the love god
Where is the love
Why have you left me god
When...

To My King
I have never been good at rhyming
Or really anything
Math was never my greatest subject
And style sure wasn’t my thing
I thought that I was worthless
Bruised and beaten down
A broken piece of merchandise
My potential could not be found
But then one day I met you
And my whole life has changed
My mind has been a zoo
And you make me feel deranged
But I love you more than life
You are my everything
One day I hope to be your wife
And you will be my king
Yes I know that it can be tough
But we will make it through ...

Hi Daddy
Hi daddy, it's your little girl.
I'm 8 years old. And I love to draw.
Do you remember daddy?
When I drew you pictures all night.
While we watched movies on the TV.
You are always so silly daddy.
You walk crazy a lot and you talk in funny voices too!
You like to sleep a lot, daddy.
Do you remember daddy?
When you stayed up playing cards and talking to your friend?
I have one of those too.
But mommy always told me it was just my imagination.
And when I get older I will stop seeing her
So why do you still talk to your imaginary friend...

Product of Society
Fake hair and fake nails
The pressure to be perfect
Perfect makeup and perfect clothes
We desire to fit in
We crave to be called pretty
The mirror is our worst enemy
We struggle daily to look our best
To try and impress people who don’t matter
We paint our faces and burn our hair
Everyone tells us we have to act a certain way
We get ridiculed for being too fat or too skinny
We are criticized for being too tall or too short
Expected to act and look on point
We try to give society what they want
But doing that is impossible ...

inebriated freedom
Eyes as red as a stop sign
I try to focus but I cant
I fall as I try to stand
Fall into a sleepless dream
Suddenly I am not myself
I feel free to be who I want
I laugh at my friends in the background
I jump as my mind spins like
A roller coaster
It's as if in this moment I have been released
I can fly higher than ever before
No I am not myself
I am a more enhanced version
I'm like a popped balloon
I have released all of my worries
I wish this feeling could last forever
Like counting the stars there would be no...

Poison Yourselves
I watch as you poison yourself with gold, silver and black
I watch you cry out with your mouth wide shut
Begging to feel okay again
Begging to feel anything again
I watch you suffocate in white smoky clouds of desperation
Where the only dreams that live
Are the hypnotic thoughts your mind alters
Into a twisted reality that you call life
Piercing your brain with broken desires
Empty promises and empty hope
Your mind stops like a broken clock
You don’t know who you are
You grasp for anything to make you feel
You gasp for air, for...

Remember When...
Remember when all you worried about was if you got to play at recess?
Remember when school was fun and you had friends?
Remember when lunch was a sandwich with an apple and chips and maybe a dessert?
Remember when the smile you wore on your face was real?
Or when long sleeves were really meant to keep you warm.
That was elementary, where everything seemed perfect
Little crushes on the cute boys and getting your first period
Your life was full of innocence.
Remember when you started worrying about having brand new classes and way too many tests?
