POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing all my life . I do it because they will not stay locked inside me !
the truth bleeds though
Im such a fool ..its hard to say..
I dont know why i push people away?
I lash out on everyone who'd care..
untill i look around and theres nobody there:'(
I swear,baby i dont know why?
but i know i cry,
when i think about losing you ...and I.
im such a jerk full of my foolish pride
so i lay up at night feeling sick and guilty inside.
there a beauty in me i dont know why i hide ?
wish i knew how to just undo..
things that ive said that were hurtful to you .
words cut like a knife but the...

here comes the tide
I did love to build you up
though you were always sand
up against the tide you were never gonna stand
washed away by the sea and gone without a trace
where you used to be theres just an empty space
if these hands could keep you strong you'd never fall apart
but the tide knew all along youd break just like my heart.

arise
looking back at me
my heart breaks
with hind sight i can see
all my mistakes
i was blind and in a hurry
stubborn as a mule
gave your mind reasons to worry
and i was such a fool
i see the good times we had
they were great
but then i see the bad
i realized way to late
sticks and stones didnt break your bones
but they broke our bond
ive had lots of time alone
to think since youve been gone...

little angel
sweet little angel i know your there
but your all alone... thats so unfair
you must be lonely....beyond compare
but your not the only ...one who cares
your always helping me through
where ever i roam
but whos there for you
when your all alone
i feel you holding my hand
when you dont know i can
i feel a chill up my spine
thats how i know your close behind
you always are ..my guardian angel my lucky star
when im lonely when im down
you are the only one...
but your all alone... thats so unfair
you must be lonely....beyond compare
but your not the only ...one who cares
your always helping me through
where ever i roam
but whos there for you
when your all alone
i feel you holding my hand
when you dont know i can
i feel a chill up my spine
thats how i know your close behind
you always are ..my guardian angel my lucky star
when im lonely when im down
you are the only one...

marked by a star
i said id never fall in love
and then i saw you
i did something i swore id never do
i let down my guard and it hit me so hard
thats a night i know i never will forget
ill always cherish the night we met
something enchanted was in the the air . .
and i realized id taken years for granted without a care.
like a bee is hopelessly attracted to a flower
i was hopelessly impacted by the power
words cant explain the way it feels
its more than butterflies and chills
its losing a weight that...

Enough :,(
i should have read between the lines some how i wasnt seeing .
you were damaged you were a wounded human being.
so you hid the pain away i failed to see it in your eyes.
and things you couldnt say turned into hopeless lies .
so many bridges burned something had to give
. so many lessons learned except how to forgive.
and god knows you tried to out run the pain inside.
and you blamed the mirror on the wall.
and looking at your self you only saw your every flaw.
but thats not you at all thats not what i see .

choosing to live !
woke up again to day and looked out side
the world was cold and gray like the sun had gone to hide
i walked out side to leave and felt the chill
guess i cant believe the way I've come to feel
everyone rushing to get to a place they dont really wanna be
i can see on every face that they arent really free
but yet we do it anyway because it says so on t.v.
so we do it day to day like it was ment to be
have we forgotten how to live
we work our youth away another nine to five
then we give a little more until we barely feel alive
we work our...
