I see
Your beauty in your smile
Your beauty in your eyes
Your beauty in your cadence
Your beauty in your fragrances.
I've travelled a lot, all across the world. Although I've never been outside my homeland. I've never been on a plane, but I've seen oceans and deserts, and the hustling cities, from a quiet rooftop.
It’s easy to become addicted to love you know.
The intoxicating heat and electricity snaking its way through your bones
And reaching your eyes
The flash of hazel lighting streaking across your eyes when it does so.
I'm having one of those days
Where every insult I can tell myself
Is rolling around in my head
I'm not smart enough
I'm not capable
Almost everything about me makes me feel crazyMy depressionCrazyMe doing my hair once a monthCrazyLoving someone I talk to off and onCrazy.

As If ONE WORD Or The Things That You Quote Means That You’re OKAY...
Within a minute you are quick to claim your fame
In another moment you completely disowned it
A rebel driven by the devil words of wisdom questioned
A world full of deception
Within a minute you are quick to claim your fame
In another moment you completely disowned it
A rebel driven by the devil words of wisdom questioned
A world full of deception
Screaming my lungs out
Tearing at my hair
Eyes streaming with tears
I claw at whatever I
Can reach and toss things
Around the whole room
My face turns red and
My eyes are wet and bloodshot
We sat around fire with deep heated passion.
This was how everyone could tell we were crazy
for a season or a reason.
Our laughters revealed us in person and degree.
They are always there
Even when i can't see them
I can sense them.
Creeping around the outskirts of my conscience
Venom seeping from their lips
^ suddenly this ain't nowhere, impressive I think --- got her swag?
Tomorrow she stank.
^ I'm Turo and you ain't, it's in how alot I say thanks --- when growing up I left alot of blanks, cause I never dispute rank.
Reality hits,
Sadness bites
and it really hurts
then it dies
No one can rely
and just can't play
It can all be a reply
then somebody must repay
Here’s a little secret.
If it makes any sense , keep it.
Why am I here ? What’s the reason?
Well , it’s like poetry roulette.
Spin the wheel for Bukowski.
What does a double zero mean ?
It’s a soft tissue cage , inside a bony cage .
Dancehall is always open , one or more’s a crowd ,
When the whole place is thinking it gets crazy loud.
Sometimes things move quite fast , they then tend to
When you take your skin off
and stare at your bones
lay them out in the sun
and watch them turn yellow
When you smile use your teeth
they'll smile more than your hair
I’ve been told that I am crazy,
that I’m mentally insane.
daddy hEld mE dowN
hE smElt stroNgly of boozE
Call me crazy cause I threaten too much
But baby those are just my warnings
Like yellow police tape wrapped around my tongue
Its just a precaution
Call me crazy cause I think about them
Hello?
Are you there?
I swear
I swear I'm gonna cry
You ask why
Well lets see
I don't like being by myself
'Cause my voices say to "kill yourself"
I can never sit in my own piece
Liked by many though I still feel alone,
Surrounded by others but still trecking on my own.
they try to understand my pain but they have different trials,
though no one truly hurts me death begins to beguile.
Can you take my crazy?
Can you understand the voices that can't help but put me down?
Shun me from my self, turn my smile to a frown
You call it disorder, I call it a hoarder
Keeping so much of what it doesn't need
My mind was not quite right,
my thoughts would give me a fright,
grabbed me a journal,
made the thoughts external,
and now I'm feeling alright.
The boy was corrupting her like a leech stuck to her skin
But she didn’t know any better so she stuck by him
She started changing slowly, didn’t even notice
There is an elephant in my room no lie
He is hanging on the ceiling
I just look em in the eye and start screaming
Then he says be silent before i get violent
How the fuck you think i feel you don't see me smiling
Affix a smile and they’ll think that you’re okay. Maybe she won’t flip out, go crazy on you today. And should you express a feeling- then you forgot your meds. Go on and take your pills. Cure what ails your head.
I refuse to be the next crazy person on the back end of your jokes
I know you were talking about me but you didn't know
You think of crazy as straight jackets and force fed medications
This is a tide coming into the beach
Only we all know in the next six hours
It will down us out as Tsunamis do.
Every little piece of home we ever clung to
Wiped out to start anew.
When we kissed I felt it threw out my whole body, not gonna lie I’m as scared as I can be.
How did this happen, I planned to do this carefully.
For it to be a simple fling, and look what’s happening to me.
I can't believe what I just saw,
A nigga hit you up as I'm scrolling through your wall.
No, there has to be a good explanation
Our relationship ain't built for no degradation
Education, it seems,
Is nearly as mediocre as social media,
Except it is more restrictive.
Things like cyberbullying, harassment, and fallacies are allowed in school,
fine.... ok, whatever its clever
i am here feeling feelings brought on by you
i am feeling something i have not felt i a while, thats true.
your a distance away from me
and thats how it will always be
The hair of my arms turned,
I know this collision of arms is inevitable,
Yet my mind spins like a ferris wheel gone rogue,
A correction must be made to my limbs,
Wrong, this is wrong; tears pry their way out
Burn my thoughts, set them ablaze.
You been running through them.
You ran through them all day.
Now that your gone I miss you bad
Iv missed you ever since you went away
I miss that smile on your face.
Mommy, look at me, look what I can do.Say any word and I'll spell it, I'm smart just like you.
I'm sorry I was bad. You hate me? Is that true?I promise I'll be better, Mommy, tell me what to do.
Ever changing into someone new
Must be life’s way of saying “boo!”
Out of the house and on my own,
I don’t want to take out another loan.
I’ll make things work.
Here comes a feat of boots dressed in gold
Clad in a uniform just as bold
Keys wrapped in paper cloth
Hands wrapped in gauze
Bloodshot eyes tinker chilled
Yet he stays willed
The voices that
surround me
tell me I'm
going crazy.
The voices that live
inside of me
tell me I've
already gone insane.
The voice that
is my conscious
their picthing a fit, their screaming and crying. Lord help my soul because I know that
I'm dying. smoke fills the air while we play truth or dare. is that who she is? Dang!
She once killed a man named Freddie Doo.
For he loved to fondle with her shoe.
So she chopped him into pieces,
Which she sent to her nieces
Did I mention that she is a cow named Moo Moo?
It is just me and you,
In this mini colloseum,
Watching these amateur singers perform
Crowded though it is,
Smokers though we all are,
In the fading light of a day gone by,
Life is hard now. I never learned how to earn my rewards. Expectations caused discord. Love can be gentle & love can be blind, but the love that I've known was out of it's mind.
Oh, Sweetheart.
Oh, love.
My poor, poor boy.
You're the first person that has fit with me and made me feel part of something.
Made me burn and love the destruction.
They’re fighting again,
I think they’re going to kill each other.
She’s screaming for them not to,
She’s on the floor, but they won’t listen.
“Wounded pride is not conductive to apologies”
How can they assumeThat trapped beneath unyielding gloomThat there’s a safely padded roomIn which my Psyche lay.
Walls of white.
The black of night.
All of which confine
this voice inside
I try to hide.
I dare not cross the line.
This voice,
it grows,
my eyes,
they show
clink
eggs crack against the bowl sky blue
broken shell shards like glass
the thin line we walk so high
tightropes of minds stretched across infinity
or not
contrary contradictions
With pain comes poetry
or is it the other way around
Pain equals poetry
I hang my hopes on a broken elm tree
I was hoping to be free
But all i've felt is weighed down
You were right
Teeth bared in the moonlight
As blood drips down her face
The look on his face is priceless,
Demons are chasing me
People replacing me
Lies are incasing me
While the truth is facing me
My steps retracing me
The townsfolk think I'm crazy.
The townsfolk think me mad.
Just because I spend some time talking to these lads.
They really are good company,
I like them quite a lot.
my nihilistic tendencies
the possibility of what i could be
a monster faded from the truth
listening to the loud loud boom
rocking back and rocking forth
which way is south and which is north
Compromising ment
Lips creating a soft dent
For our love is sent.
Message delivered
Warm embrace makes me shiver
But the cold feels good.
Shut Up!!
Shut Up!!
Just Stop Talking!!!
Wait, never mind.
With everyone quiet
I can hear myself think.
I wish I could be like a melody
My mind and body beautifuly in harmony
Instead it's a clash, a bang and a boom
My body falling heavily while my head is above the moon
You helped me see
the light of day
You helped me be
the person im supposed to be
You shined your light
on my life
You made me better
not anyone else
Although you can't see this poem
They float in a cataclysm of nothing wanting more
My mind is trapped and wanting nothing but to soar
As I sit and think these idyllic thoughts you come to me and the hurt starts
So I close that door wanting to cry no more
I'm crazy to like him
I'm crazy to love him
Crazy is my name he calls me when I'm bad
He's crazy to put up with me
I'm crazy to stay
All I do is feel crazy when he says hey
Welcome now to my corner of the institution; It's onl my mind, overcome with pollution
How, you might ask, did I get this way? Well it's easy enough, but it's hard now to say
I stand tall with my head held high;
Shoulders back and ready for the ride;
Watching eagles spread their wings;
Listening to the Angels sing.
I see myself in my mind’s eye;
crazy
that a 14 year old is
too young to make choices
but old enough to take responsibility
crazy
that a 15 year old is
not able to control his tongue
Tomorrow Tomorrow
That is when you will be all mine
When our hands fold like cards
When I feel your marrow against mine
this generation really has me loosing patience. I dont know how there gonna make it. Always counting on phones , what if one day phones turn into drones and take over the world .
Fingers dance across my throat
No marks are left this time
But even still I feel you as though trying to merge our skin
I can't speak can't see can't breathe
I close my eyes,
you are the first thing I see.
Your beautiful face,
that gorgeous smile.
What is it about you
that makes my heart race?
Your voice soft as a baby's breath...
I am not the violent type, no ? Can you not see?
I see her last breath in her flat chest as she heaves.
searchng for closure
searching for a sign
put wanted posters on billboards
hoping it would catch someone's eye
"watchya looking for, lady"
someone replied
yelling over my screams
I fear I may be crazy
I am told as much by those closest
I fear I may be insane
I cannot quite recollect being any different
Though once I must have been
I wish, how I wish, I could just dismissthat longing feeling, that search for a kissIts like I'm trapped between the heart and the mind
What makes me, me?
Is it the way I comb my hair, my brains and beauty, or the shoes i wear on my feet?
What makes me any different from you? Is it because i'm so kind
We are trapped,
We are lost,
We need to get out,
But we do not know where we are,
We are slaves to the rich,
Lets get on the piss,
Lets charge the gates of gold,
Lets break te chains,
Do you ever think about one situation & how one little detail could've changed everything?
I woke up with the thought of you,
When it asked me when you'll return,
I smiled and said but were through,
It said well tell him to make a u-turn,
I told you he doesn't want anything to do with you,
Cognitively
Not where I should be
Feelin' crazy
Not lookin' like me
Mental pictures
Leavin' me unsure
Disturbing thoughts
Have gotten me caught
Deletion.
Every single one gone.
The memories are fading away.
No way of looking back into the past.
No young faces nothing but a faded thought.
Deleted forever, what once was is now gone.
Happy
What Is It?
They say Its money
They say Its not money
What is Happy?
They say Its family
They say its marriage
What is Happy?
Is it light?
Is it dark?
"I'm going to tell you one more time.
You're all over the road,"
I look up and think here we go again.
Different day, same lecture. Our bows weren't the same direction.
I can't explain the things that I'm feeling right now
My mind, my body, my soul are being bombarded with poisenous thoughts
I'm being ripped apart into a million little pieces
I’ve known you for a while now
You and I are close friends
We’re best friends
I’ve noticed how you have changed from a sad little girl into a mature young woman
People made fun of you
They hurt you
Shh. They can't hear you.
Shh. You can't talk about that.
Shh. What will everyone think?
Shh. No! Ring the alarm, bang the pots, scream out loud!
It's always a good time for a drink.
Drank
Drunk
Easy girls and wasted guys make it all the much easier to point a finger blaming a solo cup of bubbles and warm beer.
We all have problems
So who are you to come at me
Did you ever think that there could be a possibility that i understand
In spite of what you have come to "know"
We are the same, having a bad day
No one sees, no one speaks, no one listens to the mind of the weak.
not here, not there, nor anywhere can this heart bear this pain.
I cant breathe.
I cant get past. This emotion, this judgment
Inspiration, that imperial feeling toward yourself, to express yourself, while addressing yourself with the things you do to the people who see only to judge, judge, judge you for your rights or w
The question that repeats in most minds that asscioate with me, tends to get rather tiring. "WHY DO YOU LIKE TO WRITE SO MUCH?" " I like to write because it helps me." *que questionble face and they walk away and talk about me and ask others if I
Death is dead! Death is dead!This is what everyone cries aloud and cheer,It relieves many hearts of agony and fear,
Death is dead! Death is dead!This is what everyone cries aloud and cheer,It relieves many hearts of agony and fear,
Believe To Achieve
To Beleive You Must Achieve
Over Come Fears And Regrets
Stress Or Non-Stress
He said yo midget but I kept on walking
little did he know I went home and cried myself to sleep
All I wanna do is play,
But I'm watching the days pass away,
And although you don't give me toys to chew,
Master I will always love you,
You walk in the door and I'm happy,
Strings attached
Playing puppeteer with nimble fingers and old, vivid nightmares
I'm your puppet darling
Strings attached
Center with each, individual, socket
Words cannot express the emotion in my body
Like the rush of water crashing into the rocks
My aspiration to talk is shadowed by humility
Clinching my fists and shuttering in fear
My mind has an emotion that feeds of my heart
For what I feel it expresses in words
It is not scripted to what it must be
But simply just wright's from what my heart tells thee
It dances to life with creativity
I come from a family that didn't have much
Seems like each day the road would get tough
The rain would never let up but through it all I kept my head up
Because i new one day there would be a blue sky
She walks home each day
Hearing the whispers
and all that they say
"Have you heard..."
"Her dad..."
"...some woman..."
Try as she might she can't block them out
We live in a world where society rules most of us
We create groups to isolate our selfs from larger crowds
We figure that if we stay away from the people who try and change us then we cant be changed
Writin' this for Power Poetry,
Hopin' that they notice me,
And I hope to see this scholarship,
Cause man these loans,
They make me sick,
Emptied pockets,
Dirt on the flowers
Smudges on the mirror
Scars on a face
Not all as they appear
Some turn and run
Others point and jeer
For what's on the outside
Is all there is to cheer
Screams can be heard
the obliterate stares of those
who don't have a clue
do they really
do you
The bloody fingernails
scrape the chalk board
and the spine tingling sound
what are friends
are they lovable or are
they like a sneaky vampire
in the night and gonna bite you
when you are not lookin? well i say it depends on
the person you become friends with
It's 12:10am as i write this
my darling insomnia fueling my abyss
feeling cool and calm as music fills the air
though as calm as i feel i can't ignore my thoughts
the thoughts that i can't bear
They call me 2 chairs
Alls i get is deep stares
Feelin like im commonly confused
Full of knowledge
I received
Rooted deep in earth
I didn’t have to travel
I am the inner cup
Half full kind of tree
I listen to remember
Listen to the wind
Who carries stories
Black and White, for some that is all there is
the stark constrast of good and bad,
right and wrong, rich and poor, thick and thin.
What ever happened to gray?
to shade, to shadow,
A change so exciting, so different, so new
New Friends and Old Friends becoming few
Parties, Football games, Laughs, The Insane
I wonder more and more how the world worksSome simple things like how those girls twirkAnd those big question of whyLike why did you never get to say bye?I wonder am i making you proud
As I try to grasp upon this
abstract feeling within me,
"butterflies" as they call it,
bewildered by the tension
pressuring my cells running through me,
pumping wildly and surging
through my veins,
You fill my veins
with poison, you
drive my mind insane,
It's you who leave me
unwanted, my soul
so filled with pain.
I try to walk away, forget you,
I try to never look backm
Thee cannot seeThee cannot feelWhat is within meI refuse to concealThee cannot relateThee believe it is not realCould it be fate?There are no more pretty pictures
You never know what the future will bring you
nor do you know who
will be there when you wake,
life is a game of risks and chances
the real question is
how do we handle the grasp of it
Colder than Night
Grimacing upon light
Trudging in sorrow
Contradicting death
Let them come over tomorrow
Via Picture Frame
Picture via frame
Timelines render figures of black
Silent, swift, messy
Turn a blind eye
My pen gliding against the paper
Drawing out my words
A voice thats unknown,
A desire to be heard
Music, art, writing,
A mind full of words,
A voice of meaning,
And the hatred of lying
A religion based on the belief that god exists in writing, pouring your life onto paper to recieve enlightenment to a place so inviting.
To forget...To love...To heal
Love cannot be earned nor learn
I am thankful that you never left
But it's time for you to go
Smile just like the way you used to smile with me
A three year old said "i love my mommy"A six year old said "i love my toys"But, what is love?A 1en year old said "i love my friends"A fifteen year old said "i love him"
My dream is my job
Where I get to travel and creat and invent
Oh, no, no ,no, child
They say
No, you must get a job that makes money
Singers make money
And they do what I love
The insanity drives me gradually,
Until I'm forced to wonder,
What is the source of this?
Could it truly be that, which I
A small, naive girl
Affectionatly call love?
Can that which
One, Two, Three, Four,
are you eager for it's shore?
The pale face rises into night,
soldiers stand watch with eyes of glimmer and shine.
we stand watch on the woods of our sailors
A sad girl
Who's been heartbroken
and left to soak in
her own tears.
Left to drown without any support
in her own fears.
We come to You with all the right intentions,
But the moment we set off they burn to pieces.
And it's only now that I realize,
Just how far I've fallen from You.
In Your spotlight, I become convicted,
i look back and see the pain you brought me i must forgive you in order to move on. just another chapter in my life that beginning with a brighter start. we learn to forget only if we forgive.
I lay in the sun with lemonade,
run till' im soaked inthe rain,
dance with no rhythm,
and I eat what pleases my taste buds.
My friends said: "How does she do it?"
I replied: "you'll never know untill"...
Sway with my boulders and broad shoulders,
swiftly as trees and as good as bees,
you and me should be a team.
Footsteps like rocks but attractive as tater tots.
Whether it's the arch of my back,
Used like a toy for laughs,
abused till' the brain stews,
left as an abandoned child.
Why do this to me dear?
Art relates to me.
Art is the creative skill and imagination presented to the world.
Every stroke of paint an artist adds on a canvas,
every stitch a designer puts in a piece of clothing
At First is was all smiles and Hi's
Shy looks away
Trying not to get caught looking anyway
Confusion, fear of rejection
I’ve never felt like this before, though
So how do I know how I feel?
Life is unfair
The adults all preach it
But it takes so long for you to believe it
You ride the waves
Until the board breaks
We've been broken up for six months
both of us are in new relationships
, and I woke up this morning to a next telling me you love me
how can you love me and love someone elese?
they found he razor in the shower today
because i forgot to take it out.
thye looked at me with dissipointed eyes today
but ppretentded they knew nothing about.
they heard me gagging in the bathroom today
Brittle, Brittle, little scribble.
Cookies, crumbs and a child's thumb.
Big pots, small lots.
Dancing tigers, spinning chairs.
Crawling, chewing, emotions spewing.
Broken anger, dazed stairs.
I don’t Miss my Sanity
Sanity has left me and she never said "farewell."
I look up and down to find her, but she has reaped me of my reasoning.
A genuine lust of morning'sVoiceThere I slumber, and ponderAbout the tresspassers of the dayAnd the smell of the roses fill theCream cooled air of my mindWhile my arrival is very slow and timed
People use the word "crazy" like it's a drug."Did you see that video? It was so crazy!" "That exam was crazy hard, I don't think I passed."
Fifth period English is my favorite class.
It’s funny sometimes when big kids don’t pass.
The teacher is really loud and sometimes cray.
"I'm hopeless."That's what I thought of when I satMy heart was pounding and I lost all my sensesI didn't know where to startWhat was breaking my heart
Screw them.
Screw them and their conformity
I am beautiful
I am beautiful despite the bump on my nose
I am beautiful despite the acne on my temple
Some things are said,
Some just thought,
Some are read,
Some I have sought.
Some things are brown,
Some can be blue.
But everything comes crashing down...
And I still love you.
It is a beautiful feeling
to know someone loves you.
That someone shares what
you already feel inside.
It can make you do unusual things
that you wouldn't realize.
The voices I heard in my head are so loud, discombobulated, overbearing,
That it makes me wonder how you can be so sure about what the hell you are talking about!
Feel sick to my stomach...Just want to throw-up...
Trying to stay positive, but real, as well...
Seeing things I dislike...Thinking about things that are out of sight, but still in the mind....
Lost.
Hopeless.
Tear filled eyes
Gaze
Upon the scene.
The horror.
What mad game has the artist played?
Conjuring up dark roots,
Faded memories,
The night creeps up
and it stings because
it reminds me of the things
that we used to mutter and sigh,
laugh and cry
to each other.
The daylight shines out our pain,
Oh, but the night,
When you say "Goodbye, I love you,"
I just wanna take you away
and show you a better place
than the dashboard and the faces
people make.
It courses through the viens
thick as molases, hot as fire.
Quickley spreading like fast moving trains,
it brings on that unwanted desire.
Clouds roll in,
bringing that unimaginable din,
Everywhere I turn there are hundreds
Of dazzling smiles
So, so many are surrounding me
In a radius of miles
But not me, no. I do not smile
Because I am no one
I come from a generation where handouts rarely exists where you gotta get it by any means necessary.Where people rather hate on your accomplishments than linking up with you and making there own .Where it's easy to sit on ya butt and complain rath
I walk slowly to my old closet. Dust bunnies colliding slowly with the intricate designs around the thing that held one of the deepest door to the soul.What does my Reflection hold?Who is on the other side?
They say that a bond between a mother and a child is so strong, that nothing can break it. But is that really true? We find this out in Crazy Cinderella, an original.
What is the meaning of telling me I am beautiful, if all you see is the outside?
People do not buy houses strictly because of what the outside entails.
How
am I supposed to focus on all the good in life when I am ever so
Numb
like the scars on my wrist, the ones that never made it past my skin
Frantic
Addicted to organization
through words, throughout your thoughts
Addicted " to a certain kind of sadness"
within your fears and your doubts
Addicted to the words that bring you up
To begin something, with a blank mind
to begin somthing, where only time
can tell you if it's what you thought
only time spent, to figure what you've bought.
Most people never begin,
Upon the autumn's lighted day,
Perched upon my view, I say,
Singing songing was he then,
Ringing autumn's leaves away.
Standing sturdy on the tree,
The tree, to me, still sound asleep,
I have caught myself, talking to my mind again. It’s alright, nothing to worry about. I like it that way. Being in a place where you are me and I is you. We are all the same. We are all myself. Now the thoughts are creeping in.. Because lately you
Many wish to talk to me about the things I ought to be but understand I fought to be all the things I am right now.
My skull cracksAgainst the wall atEvery-distinct-slamOf the cell doors.
Patients’ constant banterJackhammers into my brain.
The wailing coercesWith the othersThat only I know.
They fill us up with lies
They pull down the blinds
And are the cause
Of our sad demise
These voices and their venom
Slowly poison us to death
And in time we become
What a beautiful color, red, she said
And smashed it down with her hand
Orange is pleasant as well, I can tell!
And crushed it according to plan.
Green, so keen, a fervent shade
Strong like the currents of the Hawaiian watersFast like the wolves that run in cold tundra Relentless, his enemies are slaughtered When he is angry he has a tantrum
I talked with Mr. Parrot
Indeed Indeed I did
He talked of his voyge
To see his uncle Sid
His uncle told him of the day
He saw the submarines dancing out in the bay
Nothing is as it really seems,
Things can get you, real or fake,
You really are only safe in your dreams.
No, they will never give you a break.
Things will tear you apart in life
Friends may go behind your back
or a sibling attempts to tear you to pieces.
It sucks.
Yet, you can keep going.
But what do you do when your own mind betrays you?
Where you run,
it will follow.
Teeming with multiple personalities,
I feel the Legion swell within me.
I fight against
Layers of self-defense.
Long gone, the search to fleet just a virus.
With eyes, undecided, how can they locate a difference?
I once met a woman who confused me so,
Her eyes were crazed yet sparkled aglow.
She lived by herself in an old little shack,
And all she did was rock forth and back.
Her hair was frazzled and white as snow,
You would not like to know what lies in the depths of my soul
And yet you want the truth.
You do not understand what secrets that I hide.
You ask why don’t I sleep,
Why don’t I eat,
Feeling like you have to scream or just
Burst into cacophonous noise and break through
Their chatter is driving me insane.
I know they are there to help me but I just…..
Want to know something?
Can’t sleep, can’t think
Voices plaguing me.
Screaming, barely coherent, whispering, can’tmakeoutthewords.
Won’t let me be.
Can’t run away, going crazy.
Day by day.

What am I doing? I haven't a clue,
Most of the days I feel like the sky true blue.
Jumped into college following the money not my passion,
Spent many days looking at my life just crashing.
She wears a cross around her neck
But she ain't no Virgin Mary
Angry with rage inside
From being so easily tossed aside
Contains it with a smile on her face
Remnants of the human race
Fleck her heart
Passing by those I do not know
And those I wish to never know
A packed bus never fails to amuse
So much decay is put on display
Dripping from every pore
Ugly and deceptive to the core
Listen with your eyes closed, in the silence of the night.
You'll hear the battle sounds of the inner organs fight.
Logic's head comes out with gloves of steel, prepared to break and bruise.
My parents think I'm crazy,
but really not that much.
I drew a pretty purple daisy,
and made the stove my own to touch.
I wacked Daddy with a hammer
and threw Momma down the stairs.
What is sanity?
Sanity defined: Being or having reason.
What is reason?
Reason defined: A motive.
So,
If I have a motive, does that make me sane?
What if my motive is absurd?
The nails are chewed all the way off.
Bleeding; skin peeling.
It helps the nervousness.
The arms are scarred up and down.
Cut; skin breaking.
It helps the pain.
The hair is patchy in some areas.
Today, I will crumble my map
Follow nothing but the howls of the dogs
Bring my worries to a cap
And sing all of my favorite songs
To have your health is to feel that relief. A heartbreaking pride to not be the one in the quiet room, separating their M&Ms. Their MAOI's, SSRI's, antipsychotics. Nap time, snack time. Institutional itinerary of the insane.
¿No entiendes la locura de mi mente?
La locura creada por esta sociedad, por toda esta gente.
No entiendes el tumulto en mi corazón
creada por locura, no tiene razón.
Estoy desesperada.
Estoy confundida.
