POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Mary, Jack, and Jill
Little Mary quite contrary
Sits and watches her garden grow
With human blood
And skulls of men
And decaying flesh
All in a row
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To slit each others throats
Jack went first and lost his head
Jill then realized, this will never work
And jumped from the cliffs instead
Sits and watches her garden grow
With human blood
And skulls of men
And decaying flesh
All in a row
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To slit each others throats
Jack went first and lost his head
Jill then realized, this will never work
And jumped from the cliffs instead

I just do
I can't help who I am
And yet I hate me just the same
I hate my thoughts,
They speak too loud.
I hate my name,
The way its spelled.
I hate my voice,
To loud and squeaky.
I hate my eyes,
To dull and brown.
I hate my hair,
It never stays the same.
I hate my weight,
Either over or under,
But never just right.
I hate that I'm short.
I hate that I'm weak.
I even hate the way that I hate myself.
I hate myself, yes.
But I love myself, too.
I love myself because
I just do.
And that reason means more,
Than all...
And yet I hate me just the same
I hate my thoughts,
They speak too loud.
I hate my name,
The way its spelled.
I hate my voice,
To loud and squeaky.
I hate my eyes,
To dull and brown.
I hate my hair,
It never stays the same.
I hate my weight,
Either over or under,
But never just right.
I hate that I'm short.
I hate that I'm weak.
I even hate the way that I hate myself.
I hate myself, yes.
But I love myself, too.
I love myself because
I just do.
And that reason means more,
Than all...

Just go ahead and forget.
Make me as forgotten
As everyone else.
I don't need your tainted
Malicious and useless love.
Everyone warned me.
Told me to run.
And run I did. Straight to you.
You lied. And lied.
Then you left me for her.
When that didn't work,
You came back to me.
And now your gone again.
So go ahead and forget me.
For real this time.
Because they next time you come knocking,
The door is staying locked
Make me as forgotten
As everyone else.
I don't need your tainted
Malicious and useless love.
Everyone warned me.
Told me to run.
And run I did. Straight to you.
You lied. And lied.
Then you left me for her.
When that didn't work,
You came back to me.
And now your gone again.
So go ahead and forget me.
For real this time.
Because they next time you come knocking,
The door is staying locked

Deeper the cut
The deeper I cut
The better I feel
The longer they bleed
More relief for me
The bigger the cut
The larger the scar
The sharper the blade
Even more blood lost
The light is fading
The dark is coming
The sun is falling
My life is leaving
The deeper the cut
The more the blood
The end of my life
The better I feel
The longer they bleed
More relief for me
The bigger the cut
The larger the scar
The sharper the blade
Even more blood lost
The light is fading
The dark is coming
The sun is falling
My life is leaving
The deeper the cut
The more the blood
The end of my life

I have Won
They ask me what's wrong
But I'll never tell
They'll never get to know
My life's a hell
They can't see the scars
They do not exist
They've faded away
Gone like the mist
A rose with black petals
All withered and gone
Its what I am now
So wonder what's wrong.
The darkness is winning
I'm left all alone
I think I can see it
The light has shone
They'll never know
For its no longer true
The scars were my tears
And are no longer there
The rose may have gone
But I have won
But I'll never tell
They'll never get to know
My life's a hell
They can't see the scars
They do not exist
They've faded away
Gone like the mist
A rose with black petals
All withered and gone
Its what I am now
So wonder what's wrong.
The darkness is winning
I'm left all alone
I think I can see it
The light has shone
They'll never know
For its no longer true
The scars were my tears
And are no longer there
The rose may have gone
But I have won
