POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Trump me like you do.
Effortlessly,
Without a show.
There's no boast
Only a few words spoke
So softly
In the mirror.
It just happens,
So casually
Slipping by, most unnoticed.
It's horribly grim,
Half of me a saint
The other half a demon.
Exciting
Though is this life,
And how I wish it unchanged.
Without a show.

So casually
Slipping by, most unnoticed.
It's horribly grim,
Half of me a saint
The other half a demon.
Exciting

And how I wish it unchanged.

i gave up a long time ago
my sweet dream rotted inside-out,
theres nothing i long to live for.
i want to swing but mom wont let me,
and i don't have the guts to go against her.
i want to rest in the tub,
but mother would surly disapprove.
I see it now, my dream coming alive.
im swinging, rope around my neck
emptiness in my eyes.
im bathing in my own warm blood,
and licking the knife.
trust me I gave up a long time ago.

I Know I'm Better Than This
Why I do the things I do.
Act like I don't care.
Pretend I don't know the truth.
When it's right here, right here in my head.
See everyone has battles that they fight within themselves.
The winner of mine is constantly changing
all in all myself I cannot help.
For one side is care full,
the other the utmost ruthless.
That very thought wears my mind so,
and leaves me everyday seemingly speaking less.
Thinking of being not only like them,
but much worse.
As I yearn to own the coldest heart.
Be the best among the worst.
I...

I dont know
Yesterday all the street lights shut off when I walked
underneath them
I sang my heart in, all alone,
While my eyes cracked open, despite the drought
Im high now thinkin about jumpin down
Been thinkin bout coppin-out
Isn't this always how it is, the same shit again and again
Dont know how im feelin, so it must not be good
Numbness replaced the feeling, and theres no getting it back
Im as good as dead
underneath them
I sang my heart in, all alone,
While my eyes cracked open, despite the drought

Numbness replaced the feeling, and theres no getting it back

The thing about me. (talkin about us)
see
theres this thing about me,
where i care so much but i
still dont give a fuck,
where such simplistic beauty could make me tear up
while the ugly makes me want to burn it.
theres this thing about me where youll think
we were close but then we get cut off,
but im still here, im just really depressed scared shitless hiding,
but fuck ill still try n act tough.
where ill shake your hand or rip off your fucking head
because of one words difference in a sentence.
where i want to die slow and alone
out of no where, ...

untitled 3
you used to be a star till you lost your shine,
now you stumble threw town asking yourself why,
came across a few boulders that wouldnt budge
so you had to climb,
but after seeing those flowers that wouldnt bloom,
all you can do is cry,

explode
feeling like marrow in your bones,
trapped in a place hollow and alone,
where daylight never shines and the clouds all darken waiting to explode,
do you still flip and turn those thoughts in your mouth like you do with your tongue,

does the truth hurt you too?
I been mixin
my drugs,
writin songs with my blood, just lettin it all pour out,
ive been thinkin too much

sayin nearly enough,
pullin myself
up just to fall
back down,

writin songs with my blood, just lettin it all pour out,

sleep deprived
too many midnight jogs,
long nights,
wish i could put my mind on pause,
some say they feel me but i know
they dont,
cuz when they think my hearts beating
fast its beating slow,
lost in my mind, random turns
guessing which way i need to go,
theres nothing here
i can call my own,
this numb feeling never seizes to grow,
