Every time I look at David Bowie or Mick Jagger I cry
I don't want to cry
I just want to touch their faces
It's not real; none of this is real
Remember that time you tried to hurt me?
That day when you put your hands on me?
That day when you took away what was once so precious?
What possessed you to rip away the soul of a child?
That kid was so innocent.
When sleep eludes me,
What can I do?
When wounds won't bleed,
And those truths which I thought I knew,
About myself, are no longer me;
How does this crow fly in a sky which is no longer blue?
Do you remember me?
Do you remember the way you pulled at my hair?
Bit my shoulders
Thighs
Legs
The way you hit me
Leaving marks of yourself over me
The way you flung money on my face
Yes, in fact I do know that I’m fat
No, I don’t plan to change for you
Yes, I plan to lose the weight someday, but if you think I owe it to you to do so, then you will never get the satisfaction of holding my hand.
Forgiven
not forgotten
hard work
for what I’ve gotten
knocked down
kept on knockin’
fell down
kept on walkin’
Shut down
kept on talkin’
don’t give up
Life is like a video game.
Like sims, except not as easy
and in some ways not as hard.
its filled with puns that are cheesy
and it’s filled with birthday cards
but life is like a video game.
No is a word meant for me.
No, it doesn’t bother me
No, don’t speak up
No, you cause too many issues
No, who are you to tell people what is okay?
Epiphany
I wasn’t sure if it was there
But it was
Way down in the pit of me
Lives my epiphany
I need a sholarship.
To get into college
to sail my ship
Into vast knowledge
The end.
Thank you
Curtains close
No laughter from behind
I won't say I'm in love.
I like your hair,
I won't say I'm in love.
I like how you don't want to catch my eyes,
I won't say I'm in love.
Lyrical spritual individual
here to rest and fear
the daunting and exhilirating feats of our ears
No One Will Hold Me Down
No One. No One. no one
Let Me Say This Once More
No One Will Hold Me Down
Not Even My Own Mother
Who Do They Think I Am?
I Can Do Anything
No.
A powerful word.
An underestimated word.
A new word
To me.
I always bleed,
I cannot eat,
Anxiety makes me want to
Leap out of my seat.
A hand on my thigh,
Every time you tag me in a post I want to rip out my eyes.
You always take pictures which is great when those pictures aren't of me.
You see, when I see a picture of myself
As I dive back into the night
I realize the ring worn
is for another.
This sonnet is unbroken
Due to the lies told for you and I
Just as the ring implicates.
These hugs go farther than a kiss
A girl says “no” when she’s sober
And she “just needs to relax”
A girl says “no” when she’s sober
She’s a bitch, a tease with a stick up her ass
A girl says “no” when she’s drunk
There are minimal downsides to being a Poet,
But one of the few is that it's difficult to simultaneously be One
As well as the girl you want me to be.
It's difficult becuase we'll be in English class,
Please don't come back for my dead body in the
Woods.
At least there my corpse would be the king of the
Flies
And my soulless body won't only be home to
Depression
and
Anxiety
and
What? No
I want to feel unchained
What? No
I want to breathe free
What? No
This isn't fair
I want to live
I want to care
Please don't do this again
An unsuspecting candy craver and a cashier,
He saw our life together while I waited for my receipt.
I’ve never been one to pick out suitors here,
And I’ve never so awkwardly looked down at my feet.
A girl's mind is like speghetti
So, brace yourself and get ready
Expectations are always high
Romantics things make us want to cry
Love is love
There is none above
A boy is a boy
It hurts to know-
you're not enough
Hearts shatter like broken bones
and words ring devistation
You waste yourself in incomplete
Promises
and crushed dreams
Yes I'm fine
Yeah I don't even care
Sure I'll be okay
Of course it doesn't matter
I'm definitely over that
I'm honestly fine
Yeah, just tired
How much can you bear?
Why are you always on the clutches of wishes?
However you are hurt you don’t seem to learn
Whenever the mind wants to stop, you continue
Whenever the mind wants to continue, you stop
If there were no such things as thieves
I would simply assume I lost my stuff
Yet there they are crawling around town
Making daily life unnecessarily tough
His forearm is cooled by the sweat of his elbows.
The fire is started in his hand, in a ski mask and shell toes.
Without my filter
I still laugh and smile with my friends
I still work hard and get good grades
I still play sports and try my best
With my filter
I'm trying to be someone I'm not
Following what society thinks is right
I try to alter my camera light.
This will create the most optimal picture,
And allow me to avoid the tedious stricture.
Pictures are only one side of me,
Imagine a world without filters
Where people see you for who you really are
Don't worry about hiding that scar
Because that is a part of who you are
Be happy with yourself and forget what others think
Criss Cross
Knock it off
Save me the pity
Ding Dong
Poof me gone
Plenty of us are broken
Rock, Paper, Scissors, Shoot
Threw my confidence over the moon
As I hear the pounding on the door and learn who is there,
I think, "No, no no."
As I am told to come downstairs to be told what happened,
I say, "No, no, no."
A smile on my face pretending nothing is wrong, being scared, nervous, and sad it was unbearable and it happened that strong.
I used to think I loved you
I used to think you cared
I used to think "this is it"
I used to be so scared
I used to want to be your all
I used to think you did too
he tells me to trust him...
he holds me so close...
frighteningly close...
i am shaking
he insists it was the drinks
but as he wraps his arms around my waist
tell me to go to hell
tell me i'll burn there
tell me i'm the devil's spawn
i really dont fucking care
tell me you'll pray for me
tell me you have hope
tell me i'm not that bad
She believed in you, and you let her down. When she was finally smiling, you made her frown.
No.
Rather difficult to define.
So many infliction possibilities:Said with sorrow, pain, or glee.
This little word however can make or break a person; Define who they are.
You're like the swaying of trees
Or a breath of fresh air
A feeling so lovely
Hiding behind my books,
slumped over my desk
Head down in defeat,
as I stumble over each word
It’s Crazy How People Can Remember
The Time They Had Spent With People
More Than They Can Remember The Answers To An Exam.
I Guess We All Know What We Cherish The Most...
I Knew A Guy ,
Hey you ..... No you sitting at that desk wonder If thats a butt chin or your chest Hey you ..... No you why you bring us so much stress you need some mentos for that Rotten breath
Throught life you have to take decision and whether its positive or negative, life goes on
I see the stars a-shining.
I hear the birds a-rhyming.
The moon, sparkling.
The moon, charming.
Time is passing.
Nothing good is lasting.
Time goes on.
Your phone is so old, so last year, not cool anymore.
That dress you are wearing is so last season.
You haven't post anything on Facebook yet.
The video you tweeted is so old I already seen it, not funny anymore.
Society.
A wicked, judgemental group of people.
From discrimination to gay rights, we are still people.
We eat, breathe, love, laugh, and live.
Doesn't everyone?
do you remember that night
the night we felt something new
were you there in the moment
or were you checked out too
What do you see? What do you hear?
What do you feel, what’s coming near?
How does it happen? How does it come?
How does it rise, or fall from the sun?
Where does it live? Where does it sleep?
Another day stuck in dismay
Rain clouds follow me everywhere
Just another bad day they say
I know they don't even care
I have a cat,
and then I had three,
four,
five.
Alonelyness.
Feeling the world caving in,
the door to a better life closing day by day.
Alonleyness.
You saw me there yelling for help
You didn't care
You saw the pain
You could have helped me up
You knocked me down instead
You kept hurting me
You didn't care
I let the chills take over
The feeling of being unwanted
A storm raining on my parade
For my feelings came crashing down
Raining confessions
Of how I was truly feeling about my imperfections
One day you will realize how much you hurt us physically and mentally
One day you will see the pain in our faces
One day you will noticed how many lives you ruined
I wake up, 5 am as usual
I get ready for the torture ahead
I arrive at school
I walk down the hall to my first class
I sit down
"GROSS!"
Ridiculed, the punch-line to every joke.
Do not tell me what to do,
I am not a part of you.
Don't you know it hurts?
The scars gather as well as the tears.
Deeper they dig into my skin.
Fears.
Feeling lost and so alone
No one to turn to
Somedays you just gotta hold your own
Empty heart and broken dreams
No one to turn to
All alone and ripping at the seams
Beaten down and can't get up
Was this what it was to bound and confined?
The unassailable destiny so bestowed upon thyne?
My inspiration
No valid reason
Just a person
Only one
He changed me
My ways of life
For the better
I couldn't fight
I wouldn't fight
Just caught flight
Continued to soar
No one here
No one there
No one anywhere
Shame has shown
Make it known
It starts at home
Fear came in
Life begins
We start again
No one here
No one there
No one anywhere
