Most days I am able to smile through the pain.
Push through tough obstacles with unshakeable positivity.
Telling all the demons of my past that they are wrong.
I see a river levee with bridges on both sides
it’s early the air is wet, my clothes dampened by it.
People gathered and noise all around.
I’m running to you, your motionless.
I get thoughts.
A lot.
These thoughts aren’t something you’d ever want.
They crawl slowly through your brain.
They take there sharp fingers and grind them into the flesh of your brain.
It is all my fault... I should have done the things you asked... I would not have lost you like I did...
When it rains, some say God is wheeping
for the lost souls that thrive on this
dying Earth.
When it rains, my window is
scattered with tiny droplets that
race eachother.
I grew envious of them // Because you weren’t here // I couldn’t be akin to them without you // Why did God decide to take you? // Why not one of the others?
The sun shines but you don’t feel it.
Too bright for your tired eyes.
Plagued by another day.
But the sun still shines.
Can you feel me?
I’m thinking of you.
Can you feel me?
You feel it.
The itching in your soul.
You don't want to go.
But for some reason you have to.
They said so.
The teachers and politicians.
They said you have to go.
go to school, they say
get a job, they say
but why?
you don't care about me.
I'm just another cog in the machine
I'm so tired, so lonely, and so done with it all
My eyes are heavy with tears
all my hopes, when did they fade away?
all my fears, when did they come to stay?
I'm losing control (as if I had any)
my spirit was broken a long time ago
When sadness finds me at the end of night,creep up my body like a lover who has forgotten the meaning of no.I pick up a novel and forget my existence.
What is it like Growing up in a loving family? What is it like being wanted?
What is it like Not being depressed? I walk alone in the shadows I'm a ghost.
Chameleons have it lucky,
They can blend into their surroundings and dissapear almost completely.
Sometimes I feel a bit like a chameleon,
Invisible to the world around me,
But the only difference is that,
You expect us to stay docile in the face of oppression
To accept the death of our people without exception
You wish to see us stay quiet as our children lie wounded and bleeding
I walk to my home, the summer air is thick; surrounded by hallowed street lights and homes of made of brick
The streets I walk, normally awake with life, are empty and dull; not a cackle of laughter in my line of sight
Author's Note: I am extremely proud of this poem. I entered it into San Mateo's City Arts contest and recieved an honorable mention, and didnot have any intention, and did not follow the theme. So I hope you all enjoy this poem.
Today was different,
I didn’t feel like I was drowning
In a sea of my own tears.
The cold grip of shackles
That encompassed me
No longer bound me
To regret or remorse.
My hunger survives off your belligerent smile, as it puts the blazing sun up in my sky
It's those nonsensical possibilities you whisper which floods my being with your eyes
With stained eyes and blurry vision
I tried and tried with much precision
But no matter what I couldn’t do it, I couldn’t take away the emptiness I felt
However, I did gain a deeper understanding I can barely articulate,
My heart beats to my own drum, or so I thought I remember being scarred and molded into thinking things were okay My body’s weak and I’m disgusted with the slightest blot It’s more than just a scrap of dirt to scrape off My mind bleeds at night wi
She was like a meteor falling down from the sky
If only I can catch her, maybe she will be my farewell
It’s not like the passage of time that heals,
Its dark. I don't know where I am anymore; I could be dead, I could be asleep. All I know is that I don't care anymore. I feel peace here and I don't feel pain anymore. My cares are gone and I feel free.
How can they assumeThat trapped beneath unyielding gloomThat there’s a safely padded roomIn which my Psyche lay.
If tears are only saltwater streaks,
then my heart must be as wide and deep
as the ocean
and just as rough and salty.
The waves are crashing against me,
but I only feel numb now.
It's something we want no one to feel for us
Yet something we feel for others
My pain shouldn't be something others feel bad about
I have healed the wounds I have on the inside weather they are seen or not
Here I sit all alone
No one to talk to
No one to relate to
Wishing that one day I won't have to feel sad
One day, maybe I'll find someone to love me
Or just maybe be alone forever.
Colorless is how people should appear to a police officer’s view
Offender’s skin shouldn't make a difference in the end its true
Colorless is how people should appear to a police officer’s view
Offender’s skin shouldn't make a difference in the end its true
Oh, how I yearn to see the ocean again.
The soft, cool foam drifts up the sand.
It glides over my feet,
And pulls me by the hand.
Quickly, it splashes my mouth.
I'm starting to feel like hearts are anchors
and mine is rushing to the ground.
Only I don't want to stay here,
stranded under the beating sun.
So tell me how to jump
Surrounded by darkness
The light always burns at night
Gravel crunches underneath the tires as I pull up
I see him standing on the side of the house
Covered half by light and the other half
By darkness.
Strong
That's what everyone calls me
Like it's my name
Like it's my filter
They say I don't have to be
But it's my only lifeline
Strong
If I don't be it, if I don't use it
Yeah, I quit, so what?
Our team was terrible, it sucked
You could tell from the first games
That weren’t on the same page
I was hitting the ball, getting triples
Here am I, and here are we,
A there's no place I'd rather be,
For as the innocents of past
Would wish the rest of us would last
Yet come upon the midnight clear
I'm torn away from who I hold dear,
You were my legs,
What kept me moving forward.
You were my eyes,
What made me see the beauty in myself.
You were my fists,
Which protected me from uncertainty.
You were my heart,
The smile you see is uniform
Underneath lies pain & anguish
Fears of tomorrow
Yesterday's sorrow
Path seems forever unknown
Feelings frozen like stone
A painted picture of happiness
I have memorized all the break up songs
Cried a thousand times
Remembered your beautiful eyes and face
But…
The memory of what’s behind it
Breaks me up every time
I want to say I love you
DreamsOf regret and painRattle around in my head--Abandoned thoughts,And untouched memoriesooze from my sleep,And into my ear--Spilling onto my pillowand leaving a stain
Your eyes are bright
So full of life
Your touch is warm
Like a radiant beam of light
I dream of you often
Of holding you tight in my arms
When I'm around you I'm speechless
Soft words, sweet
Soft hands, warm
Leaves me giddy, breathless
Innocent and never knowing
loving, falling hard...
and you
ever knowing, sweet nothing
to you
I am nothing
You were a cigarette break that felt like a for
I count minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, ye
you were my summer boiling my blood, drying my skin.
I wasn't prepared for your end but it came without warning
quick
sudden
completely out of no where
like a car crash in the middle of the highway
He loves, I love.
He smiles, I smile.
He’s happy, I’m happy.
He change, I’m confused.
He, I, and many memories.
He loves, I’m sad.
He smiles, I cry.
He’s determined, I’m disappointed.
How was it so easy to change on me
We use to be so deeply in love
That when you were sad,
I cried
When I was hot ,
You Sweated
When i thought,
You reacted
If you had an enemy
Not going to let another day pass me byEven though my hair maybe a messAnd I'm not going to lieI don't always pass the test
But I'm going to let the world know that I'm flawless
A smile hinted at her lips
She watched her beloved from afar
He was in her thoughts, never ceasing
Should she dare be bold?
Should she let her secrets run free?
Yes, courage sweeps her away.
Me and You
I was your love and you were my babe
Sounds cliche and cheesy but why not hun
Just a couple of kids who secretely liked the other for years
But this was not known until recent
His eyes glowed as bright as the North Star in the summer night
I wanted nothing more, but just his name;
I love you.
I love you.
"I like you so much"
I said.
My heart was still pounding
At the prospect of saying what I really meant.
He knew what I really meant.
Too short a time
to get to know you
Falling falling
I kept on
Falling
So different yet so the same
We could have sailed the world together
You'd be the captain
and I your first mate
My heart is bursting
with fire I suppose;
The feeling is always mutual
But I will propose;
That my emotions are changing for the better
My heart is clearly broken
his blue eyes were full of lies
the way he held me was the way he had held many before me
the word he said dripped with venom
he was the snake himself
I walked right into his clutching trap
Love won't you come back, and be my best friend, won't you please give me your heart and soul once again, won't you whisper your sweet song and stand by my side, won't you be my fair maiden, my queen and my bride, won't you give me your hand as w
She comes hom with a smile on her face,
Nobody dares ask why,
But if you look at the joyous space,
There is sadness in her eyes.
She laugs to convince that she's okay,
Though they do not notice anyway,
What do I need ?
I need you to say you love me too
And i need my restless infatuation to mean something
Why does life taunt us?
Pining a little purple butterfly,
To the ground.
Why don't you fight? I ask him.
'Because I can't.' he replies.
Well, why not? I ask.
'Because they don't want me too.'
If it were to happen that I fall in love with you
know that I'll love you with passion and disgust.
You hurt me more than I hurt myself darling.
pain fills my chest
as I remember when you layed on my breasts
It kills me to walk this way,
the way we went when you were bae.
For 3 years I called you mine.
I'm not scared of relationships,
I want a relationship.
I want to hold someone's hand while they drive down an open road.
I want to kiss their forehead when they feel sick.
its hard letting go of something you've been struggling to hold onto.
especially when its hurt you more than it has helped you.
but it'll hit you one day when you're holding someone else's hand while they're driving,
Well I just wanted you to know that I was here
I am here
I am here like that tooth brush you grab every morning
Or when you close your eyes and darkness meets you instantly
I am here.
forever, its a strong word that keeps us all attracted,
from love that we fall from to love that we practice,
you meet that one person who can make your wrong, right,
As I look at them, a prequel unfolds
In this aura colorblindness persists
But look closer and the lines seem to bold
The two identical souls coexist
As time goes on, the story does begin
If my words were to not have a filter on them then I would say what's truly on my mind. I would speak words that come from my soul. I would let people know how I feel, I would let them know the words I should have said that are now too late to
Me without a filter.Sad and cold as winterHappy seems so UnfamiliarThink my heart has died and witheredLast time I smiled, i was with her.And now she’s goneLeft me all aloneWhat did I do wrong?
this is a poem

aw yeah poem
salamanders have

and so do i
because I are be in ap class
As
I lie wide awake,
I pray to The Lord,
"Please, for my sake,
if the one I love does not love me back,
may your light shine on me before I attack;
myself."
“The family and friends of mine,
I dont love, I dont love...
Friends of mine don't show up all the time,
Still have me in their mind,
Borrow my pain, reimburse cheers,
Tears don't mean sad or pain,
Isn't even flow from wounded heart...
Tears are way to express joy and sad...
Emotion charged when fervently warmed...
In Very sad or Ecstatic joy,
My love has gone away, unfortunately, he swayed.
I know your smart, therefore I need your heart.
Laying in bed
Wanting to be with my boo
Wishing I were dead
Because I cant live without you
My world was full of light,
Until you left, now its dark as night.
You had my heart,
Then you tore it apart.
The biting my nails to the nub while simultaneously fidgeting with the buttons off my cardigan because I can't get enough.
Her heart aches so much that she doesn’t know how she’s going to make it through the night
Without hearing his voice, feeling his touch, without him by her side
Impressive in your eyes I seem,
but more Impressive yet are you
who believe in my life so vague,
filtered to exclude the truth.
My anxious fingers produce
Painful shots, routine meds
Breath stopping moments, heart wrenching seconds
We were there, in that moment of time when we were together
Your eyes they doth sparkle.
Your face it doth shine.
and if twas my choice,
I would make you all mine.
but fate whisked you away,
so you could not stay.
but if you could now,
They make the light so something funny, to put that sparkle in his eyes.
they even make your lunch act weird, but you'll call it butterflies.
They make you fall for the cheesiest pick-up lines.
It's 12 am and I'm starting to realize that I literally want no one else but you and I only want to touch and draw on your skin and I only want your hands on me and I only want to comb my fingers through your hair and I only want your lips to e
Thinking, wishing, pondering, pensiveChoosing wrongWishing to knowThe contents of my heartAnd that in yoursWill you complete my soul?If I leave now will you still be thereHow do I decide?
Being with you was full of ups and downs,
The smiles, the laughs, the hugs, kisses were great
To feel, but when I think of how it sounds,
The moral of this story’s, NEVER DATE.
She always loved where the lilies grew
She loved their enchanting fragrance.
The field was like being in the clouds of the sky so blue
The field was where she would happily dance.
I’m soaring, looking, watching out behind.
I’m flying, falling, to the flower. Here.
Just wanting, wishing, that I’ll see you near.
A flower like this, again, I won’t find.
As beautiful as dew-drops in the spring,
Rocky spine, left in the night
fragile skin that reflects the light.
Rocky spine, growing strong
marks that show what went wrong.
Rocky spine, with a smile so bright
eyes that sparkle in the night.
One day you were there
By my side
Hand in hand
Than one day you left
No words were spoken
you
Were
Gone
Waiting for you
Hoping someday
You'll return.
I don't like that there's no mail on Sunday's.
Every day you go to your mailbox
Finding magazines and letters and everything in between.
A dark night
A house at the end of the road
Shades pulled and door closed
What lies inside the lonely home?
A poor boy all alone
When the sun resurrects
The boy too must show life
Cresting over bed sheets are eyes asBright as the morning sun, blinding with colors; promise,Hushing a giggle from my lips with his tender kiss,He is the dawning of darkness,Though sunlight drips from his kind smile,
Her heart beats quickly, and it beats red wine.
His breathing slows, and he inhales her scent.
She drinks him in with her midnight eyes.
He hears her sigh from his gentle kiss.
When we first locked eyes that summer afternoon,
You left me, in the most innocent sense, breathless.
I knew that I would fall in love with you
And I thought it was worth the risk.
If she showed me nothing else
Then I guess she was
If she gave it all to me
I guess she was
If it was undeniable
I guess she was
If she was...
What was I
Silly boy, oh silly boy
watch me while I get used like a toy
abused by his words and fade through his actions
how in the hell could this shit have happened ?
You knew I loved you more than anything in this world
If I could, I would give you the world and much more
but instead you couldn't appreciate what you had and
now my heart is so cold and bitter.
Sitting here alone with you
makes me wish I was yours forever.
Wishing you felt that way too,
Waking up everyday like
man what a dream,
Another image of you
seperated by worlds
It all happened in the blink
of a eye, I fell for you
and everything just seemed right
Waking up every day
like man what a dream,
Another image of you
seperated between worlds.
It all happened in the blink
of an eye, I fell or you
and everything just seemed right.
Someday I will say to youIt was only just a dreamYou told me you will be with mebut it was just a lieSadness in my face-that makes me want to cryI just pretend I don't want you
can you not see that
there is no happy
ending for people like
us
this only ends when
one of us is dead
and the other decides
to move on or
grieve eternally
please dont ask me to
write about our love
or about us at all
because i can only
write poetry
on the things that kill me
and if you want a
poem from me
You didn't tell me you
loved me
in so many words
but in the way you
looked at me
and held me
you didn't tell me
goodbye
in so many words
Every time I try to think it's like a haze
Engulfs my mind.
So negative, so deflating
My mind is in a bind.
For you see, my creativity
Is trapped in this haze.
So deflating, so negative
I still catch myself,
from time to time,
wanting to call you,
or contact you in some way,
and tell you all about my year,
or even something as simple as the weather,
I look in the mirror
What do I see?
A shattered soul
Simply, Me
Alone in the world
I try not to cry
Sometimes I think
Should I just...die?
I was in love. And you were too.we were together, through and through.but you left me alone, Stranded in an ocean of my tears.it was the end. Of me. Of you. Of us. Of who we were.
Are we just a flower beginig to blom in the warm spring weather ?
Or a leafe changeing its color from green to red?
we are the butteflies in our belly and the glint in my eyes.
man my minds a train wreck so explosive but nobody knows what's going on cuz I show no emotion. I don't feel the need to tell people my problems.simply because my problems are my problems.
My heart was once your home.
Lucky for the girl who have your heart now
Lucky, for she finally captured what was once mine.
Be happy, I know you already are.
I want to be happy for you
When love and hate collide,mixed emotions I couldn’t help but cryConfuses the soul I couldn’t hideAs I faced you that I already bid goodbye
My hand
Reaches out
To try and
Destroy the darkness
And the distance between us
You are so close
Yet
You are so far
away
Please
Don't go
Away
She was beautiful
She was wrapped in a blanket of beauty with a dazzle of sparkle
The sparkle you could see in her eyes when her crush walked by
This dude I met a few weeks ago
mentioned to me the 3 year mark.
Not sure what the fuck he meant by that
He seemed daunted
But the certainty of his tone got to me
"You know....The 3 year mark?"
A dream is wasted,
a hope is a flying dream,
a lie gives false hope,
a bitter love has hurt lies,
a life still goes on.
I like you
but I don’t want you in my head.
Im not used to being controlled,
Im used to being in control.
Hair bright as a summers day
Eyes the color of the ocean
You can see the happiness slip away
hes trapped by an immature devotion.
His soul as warm as a fires flame
has gone cold as ice
I grew and noticed I had no pair
Sent by God to provide care
All ma burdens no one help bare
Of the many Love none was shared.
I feel you running. I feel you hiding.
I feel the love is vanishing away.
Oh why so long in love and hurting.
Oh why just you don't want us stay.
How will I handle you away?
d the ability to get a glance at the figure of the physique under the black veil I've cast upon myself, I applaud.
All eyes on us as we dancedI'm sweating like a sinner in church and I cantMeet your eyesAnd everyone knew what I was going to tell youThey expected smiles and at the end I'd hug you
Screaming on the inside, praying that I can go and hide.
No one sees the demons that pull at me inside.
I laugh outside, as I cry inside.
I remember thinking,
that your blue
deep dark blue eyes
... Could solve anything
Cure
anything
and that your smile...
your pearly white smile
could fix my sadness,
Crawling into bed
Your heart beats against his
Interlocked in an embrace
Two bodies connected, forming one
Puzzle pieces fitting together
Moving in harmony
Paddling to shore
X marks the spot
my heart was stolen when i was weak
im still rising up onto my feet
i was hurt but i grew stronger
won't tolerate this any longer
you drugged me with misconceptions
what exactly were your intentions?
When she was fifteen,
Her pure pigment spirit was watered down
By the unrelenting attack of paintbrushes lined with insults, deceit, and betrayal.
She became transparent, translucent,
I wish that I could tell you,
About all my seasons of grey
I would tell you about the pain
That never seems to end
You stole my heart,
You stole my mind.
I thought you were different,
Possibly a great find.
This may be true,
Even to this day.
You still hold my heart,
In a painfully beautiful way.
I've heard that life isn't worth leaving.
That it's selfish to take your life away.
Why do we think that way?
Has life taken us in it's death grip?
Can we stand up, can we take the trip?
I'll write your name on all of my cigarettes so that more than your words can kill me
Because it's always those closest to us whose words mean the most
So lover I'll keep you in my back pocket in a cardboard carton
When I think of you
sometimes my stomach flips.
Not alwyas in that "good way"
well,
Most of the time is alwyas the good way.
but
I shouldn't feel like this.
"Alone, alone, alone..."
The phrase that plagues my mind day in and day out...
Yet it rings true about who I really am.
I am alone.
Feeling ever so distant;
How could you love me
But give me that script
Played that role like "you the only girl"
Gave you everything I could
Including my 1st time under the sheets
You never thought you'll get ccaught up
Looking out at the vastness of space
I see that my life, my troubles,
are petty
and insignificant.
Who are we?
So meaningless and small
Our lives
just pinpoints of time and space
I got sent here to learn about
The world and how it messes people up
And how people keep going no matter
What,
how they never give up but at the end of the day.
I stare at you for hours
Died By Love: Broken Heart
He fought through and through
Whether it was the war or the hard struggle of love
I stay positive for friends and foes.
They're the ones who need it the most.
I try to be the light of their lives.
Just to keep them one more night.
Alive.
They need to know someone cares.
In my time of need
would you?
When it's time to grieve
would you?
When I need a shoulder to lean on
would you?
If i said I love you
would you?
If i weren't brave enough
could you?
I remembered why I hate the fall-
late fall, when it starts getting
just cold enough that you tell your mom
to turn the heat on.
I remembered why I get all
choked up when I get too cold-
I know I’m unwanted,
Yet I still try
To find the one
Whom would die
For me and make me feel
The print has faded
From the movie ticket of our first date,
Just as our love has done.
I still think about you
That life alrtering
heart shattering
body shaking
head aching
words spurring
hatred
your whole world's crumbling down
and you just can't take it
that love that you thought
Eventually it gets old
You get tired of arguing just to have a conversation
Your throat is still sore from yelling at the top of your lungs just to make sure your voice is heard
For I would take your hand in a heartbeat,
And run with you through eternity
Amongst the fields of flowing time
Beautifully illuminated amidst our minds
Words whispered in the breeze
Linger even after she can't hear.
The trees ramble on
Shivering and leaning
Love's impression vanishes.
The dejected dreams
Long to be real,
To have been felt.
I met a guy
Thought he was right for me
But then I turn around
And guess what I see,
That he's a player
And that's not what I need
Yet why can't I leave him be?
First impression
Seems to be the best
But why do I find it
So hard to rest
Late night thoughts
On my mind
Its those same thoughts
That take all the time
Is time running out
There are always love that define the beauty of a person. Beauty is not just a person looks it's the way a person personality is.
The rays of heat from the sun on your skin
The thumping of your heart
The weight of his gaze on your skin
Light breaths blowing your bangs
The tickle of eye lashes on your cheak
Bright shadows
and the paradox
of missing a man
who has given
no time
to be missed--Realities and
symptoms of
the many
afflicted with
warmth in their
nature and
I sit here
In a once comforting place
Now haunted by vivid memories
They circle around me
Like vicious banshees
Screaming mistakes and regrets
Well there's a way to ruin a day
that looked as though would go my way.
A simple idea to visit a friend,
that surely turned out to be our end.
Whether it jealousy or whether it spite,
Love is just some four letter word,
That people use to show how they feel
How can you feel something,
when you don't know love is real?
What is love?
We don't know
The smiles don't stay,
they turn into tears.
Happiness goes away
and I think of the first few years.
Even though they're not for long
the laughs feel so worth it.
Without him it'd feel wrong,
A candle burns flickers of light into my dark room
I am shattered
Keyboard clicks and the tones of a Les Mis song
I am heartbroken
I smell the cool autumn air and dread going to school today
I am scared
Overtime I've come to realize they couldn't be more wrong;
Because in hating you I was weaker but in loving you I was strong.
They said that angels and demons were destined to fly apart,

Roses are red
Violets are blue
your curtins are opend
and im watching you

Twinkle Twinkle little star
i want to hit you with my car
She looked out to the flourescent sky
Daydreaming like a small child
Wishing she had the wings of a bird so she could fly
She wanted to be free, she wanted to be wild
I guess I didn't know how to love
myself.
The things you said you saw...
I always did think you were delusional.
For I am not beautiful,
I am not worthy of
Want.
You were a blessing
Then became a curse.
Where did I go wrong?
Your arms that once brought warmth
Now burn with every touch.
You built me up
Then tore me down
Us sailing in the ocean
Immense pain and depression
Most unbearable and intolerable,
That thoughts of it just kill even more!
Eyes filled with salty tears of sorrow
And pain that clings onto the soul
Hi Annie Hi my name
I am unique and very
passionate about God
I'm very bright in all I do
I learn about love at the age
16 .
love is God
Love makes peace
Love is truth
Love is bright

Once upon a time you had a life
Made a family, had some kids
With your beautiful wife
Helen Fisher says it is not an emotion.
It is a need,
It is a hunger,
It is air.
And yet so pathetic it seems,
That such a sore which cannot be seen,
Can possibly still be there.

Good bye
Try not to cry
Long sigh
Something shatters inside
A new realization
The cycle just completed a rotation
No intentions
Little predictions
Sometimes it is a game
emotions meet your demise
for it is a poem that looks you in the eye
happiness
no longer causes madness
insanity
reality
clarity
personality
no longer
cookie cutter
I, personally, have a love for larger dogs because I’ve always grown up with them and my volunteer position at the SPCA allows me to express my passion for animals.
Dear Me,
Don't you see
your problem is this
you can't forget what love is
you see him everywhere
when y'all speak you can't help but to stare
into those eyes you fell
anything you would sell
What I would Say,
If I could say
would be daring
and bold
and new
and maybe a little bit different too.
I would say how you have gotten rid of the best
the cream of the crop.
If thou didst ever hold me in thy heart,
absent thee from felicity awhile,
and in this harsh world draw thy breath in pain,
to tell my story.
If thou didst ever hold me in thy heart,
When the lights are searching my pockets of darknessThose words that frantically chime in your earThey are still alive, they knew me wellI told them, you were a whisper
You are the moon and I am the sea,
Your constant changing faces,
Are always changing me,
When you show your full face,
What do you want from me?
Why is it I never seem good enough?
Questioning eyes,
A skeptic glance,
"Uh huh, yeah, sure..."
You love him
he loves you
There's something not supporting you two.
It cuts through your love like a double-edged sword,
You were barely even warned.
You thought that love would be enough,
This place I am, it is horribly dark.
Yet, here I will stay. I am a flightless lark.
Motionless I’ll lay.
Please, take me away.
I need this to stop,
For these yearnings to drop.
My greatest companion upon the right,
my angel upon the left.
I in the center.
Alas, if only I had a fetter,
to bind my comrades and I together!
For at the end of our journey,
I've lost the tourney,
I stepped on a slug today. It made me wonder how you were doing. Leching your way across town no doubt. Filling your pockets with our disappointment. Recycling nicknames, sex games, growing pains. It's just growing up. It's a part of life.
I will not cry
because you don't care.
I will not cry.
I will not show you how much you're hurting me.
I will not cry.
You won't give me what I want,
I will not cry.
