Dad(Description gives you info that sheds more on the poem)
I can read, dad
Pictures aren't books
I made a friend, dad
How did that happen?
I can walk, dad
Now you learn to run
I can speak, dad
Now you get your degree
We won, dad
You struck out once
I can score, dad
$100 never will
I'm good, dad
Too small to be great
I learned to write, dad
Next, the typewriter
I got an A, dad
If you didn't then I would be ashamed
I want to talk, dad
Well, I want a clean house
I want to achieve, dad
Got a long way to go
I think I tied my shoes,...

Bottom of the pond.
Once you’ve hit the bottom of the pond,
You become content in the waters and forget about all of the pleasures that lay on the surface.
You find peace and tranquillity in the silence of the depths; bury and hide all negative thoughts, memories and feelings of regret. But without returning to the surface all positive opportunities remain undiscovered.
Return to the surface, give yourself a breath, remember to indulge in happiness.
Cause although the depts are silent and emotionless, your stuck amongst the mess of your past regrets.
You become content in the waters and forget about all of the pleasures that lay on the surface.
You find peace and tranquillity in the silence of the depths; bury and hide all negative thoughts, memories and feelings of regret. But without returning to the surface all positive opportunities remain undiscovered.
Return to the surface, give yourself a breath, remember to indulge in happiness.
Cause although the depts are silent and emotionless, your stuck amongst the mess of your past regrets.

The Gravedigger
The Gravedigger
"Why are you digging an unnecessary abyss?" she asks,
"It is a grave for whom i cannot say!"
The man stands and recalls,
Too many times has given up his life,
Too many fears force him to stall.
The first cut ripped like a knife,
that does not mean so do all!
A cynical view does him his harm.
As content as he may seem,
Perhaps a look at his life would set the alarm.
A realization that there is a fear within him!
In maturity a windfall fell his way.
Not money! But another,
Which...

My Book
Walking barefoot on broken glass
Wet asphalt, headlights in the eyes
My way has been a very difficult one
There is no "May I" or any taboo
My soul is like a book
The chapters in it are made of scars
They read like a terrible fiction
Because surely these things cannot happen
It will tell you of many hardships
How I loved and about those I lost
Now no questions are asked
I am the daughter of tenebrosity
And my world no longer exists
Easily blinded by the light
I try to forget everything
Childhood died, upbraiding bows...
Wet asphalt, headlights in the eyes
My way has been a very difficult one
There is no "May I" or any taboo
My soul is like a book

They read like a terrible fiction
Because surely these things cannot happen
It will tell you of many hardships
How I loved and about those I lost
Now no questions are asked
I am the daughter of tenebrosity
And my world no longer exists
Easily blinded by the light
I try to forget everything
Childhood died, upbraiding bows...

Be Done With It
I covet you because I don't exist.
My soul vacated this body in disgust;
starving, emaciated.
Fill the shell one time so I can feel. I need to feel.
I'll take your love, I'll take your contempt. I'll take your abuse.
A kiss.
Or kill me.
I ghost through the world every day, every fucking day,
carrying no weight. Making no mark.
Invisible. Ignored.
Your eyes penetrate me.
Fire. Empathy. Cruelty. Lust.
I need it all.
Empty yourself into me. Shatter the shell.
And be done with it.
My soul vacated this body in disgust;
starving, emaciated.
Fill the shell one time so I can feel. I need to feel.
I'll take your love, I'll take your contempt. I'll take your abuse.
A kiss.
Or kill me.
I ghost through the world every day, every fucking day,
carrying no weight. Making no mark.
Invisible. Ignored.
Your eyes penetrate me.
Fire. Empathy. Cruelty. Lust.
I need it all.
Empty yourself into me. Shatter the shell.

Light or Dark
Suffocating inside my own skin
My heart is cold and unloving
Reaching out into the unknown
The darkness is overwhelming
My mind won't stop screaming
Thoughts begin to consume me
There is no place I can escape
Allowing myself to be pulled in
Must choose which road to take
I've created many ways out
Everyone's feelings are dismissed
Everything I think is only for myself
Worry not my loved ones
Your hearts will heal quickly
Cannot think about others now
I don't want to care about the outcome
All I want right now is...
My heart is cold and unloving
Reaching out into the unknown
The darkness is overwhelming
My mind won't stop screaming
Thoughts begin to consume me
There is no place I can escape
Allowing myself to be pulled in
Must choose which road to take
I've created many ways out
Everyone's feelings are dismissed
Everything I think is only for myself
Worry not my loved ones
Your hearts will heal quickly
Cannot think about others now
I don't want to care about the outcome
All I want right now is...

Don't leave
To think that there
would be hope for me
I did not dare believe
My path has been cruel
I can not see the end
In a beautiful dream
A ghost in the night
With a silvery brush
And the lightest touch
I see you again
You are here, are you here?
Is this real, it is to real
I am so afraid that you
will leave me again
Disappearing into the dark
Close my eyes, make believe
Did you break the fall and
come to save me again
You changed the path that

Will You?
Tell me this will you love him the way you loved me?
Your giggles on my stupid jokes
My presence brought you on your toes
Our talks never had a long pause
They were endless as if they had a cause
But if i am not around and i am gone for long
Tell me will you let him in, where i belong?
We argued late nights on religious talks
Gladly ignoring the ticking of clocks
I would get furious when you would compare my devotion
Yet another night, without a firm conclusion
But who cares, the arguments are part of us
Tell...

The Beast Inside Me
I can't explain how I feel pther than to say that I have all this pent up energy,anger and rage inside of me that is fighting to be unleashed. I know I can't keep this beast locked away for long however, I'm not sure if I can control the beast inside meonce I let him out of his cage. I have this angry beast inside me just begging to be let out. The beast is like a wild animal locked in a cage. The rage just builds and biulds without any way to release it, then one day I feel quiet and calm then the rage and the beast just come out with such an explosive force that my life, family and my...

Love kills
Broke the promise,
to the promise you promised.
I thought you were honest.
So close, now nothing in common.
Dearly departed, left broken hearted.
Heartless scarlet, incarnate a goddess.
Body's flawless, shoulda been more cautious.
Unguarded my heart, left ripped apart.
Left are the remains of a carcass.
to the promise you promised.
I thought you were honest.
So close, now nothing in common.
Dearly departed, left broken hearted.
Heartless scarlet, incarnate a goddess.
Body's flawless, shoulda been more cautious.
Unguarded my heart, left ripped apart.
Left are the remains of a carcass.

Mannequin
How was I supposed to know the Real me
With all these clones of clones around me
Why am I feeling so empty
Why are these people changing me
Is One of you supposed to help me
How was I when you first met me
Was I different than how you act normally
I need to find the real me
Can you Hear can you answer me
Murder, and It’s killing personality
Can’t remember, who I’m personally
Real thoughts buried dig deep
Misplaced all the good memories
Just history forget eventually
Feels so real am I even...
With all these clones of clones around me
Why am I feeling so empty
Why are these people changing me

Hope
Hope is a lethal weapon
With love as it's soulless brother in arms
Chemical warfare clashing
With dopamine and disappointment
The smoke curls around my tongue
Leaking out in wisps
A ghost of the devil himself
I breathe him in
Desperate to fill this gaping hole
That only grows bigger
And deeper
My throat is too raw to scream for help
I've bombed every road home
Every shelter lies in rubble
Tears won't heal this monstrosity
I've become
I put faith in you
And you let me down
Over and over...
With love as it's soulless brother in arms
Chemical warfare clashing
With dopamine and disappointment
The smoke curls around my tongue
Leaking out in wisps
A ghost of the devil himself
I breathe him in
Desperate to fill this gaping hole
That only grows bigger
And deeper
My throat is too raw to scream for help
I've bombed every road home
Every shelter lies in rubble
Tears won't heal this monstrosity
I've become
I put faith in you
And you let me down
Over and over...
