POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm creative but my poetry is rather sad and negative and im a concrete writer i write how i want no spell checks and no rereads
living and learning
Whenever the trees grow
In the forest behind my home
I question
Is it a rhythm
Or is it a way
A joyful song set in motion
For it grow a tree
Even in winter or early spring
Or is it a way
That they come together and grow
From natural soils and such
Unlike the world they start together
Why can't we learn from them
Trusting we are growing changing
Like the leaves
But even though when they both
Get torn down
They still let us breathe
And carry our world on
Their branches
In the forest behind my home
I question
Is it a rhythm
Or is it a way
A joyful song set in motion
For it grow a tree
Even in winter or early spring
Or is it a way
That they come together and grow
From natural soils and such
Unlike the world they start together
Why can't we learn from them
Trusting we are growing changing
Like the leaves
But even though when they both
Get torn down
They still let us breathe
And carry our world on
Their branches

showing scars
Love
Its like...
Giving your heart to a needle
Watxhing it burst
All the blood spilling out
Until you die
Then throwing it down
Never to be fully repaired
Hate
Its like....
Getting mixed up in a blender
Pinapples and nails
U get sweet
Then all of sudden u feel it stab you
This world
Is like...
A black hole
That is filled with love
Filled with hate
But no one sees...
The pain
The struggle
The hurt
The knowledge
The strength that people have
You see that girl...

its not you... its me
i ran away from you
i loved you for years
seven to be exact
i wanted love
i wanted see how it would end up
but all it did was end
i need clarity
clear my head from you
your body
your kisses
like firewoks
popping in my head
i wanted to stay
now i hold this bottle
of whiskey
in my hand
and a gun
laying on my table
debating on playing
a round of
Russian roulette
just to make
all this pain
run away like i wanted to
but are you worth it
all the tears
all this pain
i question...

almost but no longer
this romance is so easy
you can walk in and out
even if uninvited
so now i say goodbye to you
my almost lover
i sing myself to sleep
as if you were never here
i speak to people
as if for the first time
and i cry
i run away
so no one can see
that i lost
my almost lover

even if uninvited

as if you were never here
i speak to people
as if for the first time
and i cry
i run away
so no one can see
that i lost
my almost lover

words
i never made it
i never really
i dont know
learned to write
it came naturally
but its not like i could remember
even if i was taught
but everyone says
oh your a foster kid
and that i am nothing
but how is that
because i didnt go
i didnt go to school
i went to high school
i hated it
yeah i was in the system
from two months
to two years
but i learned
alot apparently
but i am not nothing
i am not worthless
because i put my words
in such a way
that it twists
your way of thinking ...

dreams
open wounds
burn like hell
like that hot ass desert sun
blistering my hands
my feet
my everything
but for love
the distance is so
annoying
so painful
that i fall
into the only ocean
that i have seen for miles
in which i relaize
in that moment
in that breath
its fiction
the sun
the wounds
the scars
the dirt
its all fiction...\
i wake up
i wake up next to you
i was alone
fiction
fiction fiction fiction
and i lost it
i woke up gasping for air
as if i was underground...

a little rose... can make you see
You ever wonder
How a rose
Could be so beautiful
But the thorns hurt like hell
I do
A lot
How something so little
Can make you bleed
Its kinda like this world
They tell you...
You can be anything..
A writer
A police officer
A princess
But now you have all these tests
That tell us....
We aren't good enough
.....and I not good...
Enough
But yet I am...
Maybe not in your eyes but I feel.... good...enough..
Its like when your dad says...
I'll never leave...
But then does...

everlasting death
Last breath
That you have ever took
Was used to tell me
That you never loved me
With words like that
I wonder
How can something so sweet
Taste so evil
How can a tornado
Fall so softly in the daylight
No rain
More like no reign
You held on to me like plastic
Knowing... I would rip
With a grip as strong as yours
Now you lay there
Saying I love you
Screaming at me for your life
But all I can do is laugh
Hahahahaha
You did all this stuff to me
Took every dime I had...
That you have ever took
Was used to tell me
That you never loved me
With words like that
I wonder
How can something so sweet
Taste so evil
How can a tornado
Fall so softly in the daylight
No rain
More like no reign
You held on to me like plastic
Knowing... I would rip

Now you lay there
Saying I love you
Screaming at me for your life

Single
One word
One person
One heart
But two
Is better than
One
Two people
That are right
For one another
Is better than one
Better than
Crying alone
Sleeping alone
Single
Is one thing I fear
But I am never
Alone
My bed is empty
But my heart
That...
Is never empty
His name
Burns within me
And love
Our love is two
Hearts
Spiraled into one
Single
One word
One person
One heart
But two
Is better than
One
Two people
That are right
For one another
Is better than one
Better than
Crying alone
Sleeping alone
Single
Is one thing I fear
But I am never
Alone
My bed is empty
But my heart
That...
Is never empty
His name
Burns within me
And love
Our love is two
Hearts
Spiraled into one
