It took me a long time to realize that not everyone in your life is going to want what is best for you,
And that sometimes the people around you are going to want to see you fail because they know they could never do what you do.
Have you....
Ever wished someone understood you?
Ever wished someone took the time to listen to you?
Ever wished that someone would allow you to know what having a friend is like?
Are you...
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Far away,
Make a wish.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Please my wish,
Please come true.
Little me,
Oh how cute!
You thought looking at the stars
My outside appearance shows nothing of me.
I am not what you see,
for I am not even human.
I am a soul
trapped inside this body,
screaming for help.
I'm constantly being attacked
Wildly wishing
To run with the wind
To dance to song birds’ tunes
To lay in the grass on a warm summer day
To let all my worries wash away
Wishing...
Wishing for someone to notice me
Wishing to be #1 in someone's world
Wishing to find that perfect someone for me
Wishing for things that I know will never come true
Wishing...

...I guess I can't call you my "next boyfriend."
That would imply there was a "first boyfriend."
I apologize, in advance,
Because the path to my heart is overgrown,
Infrequently traveled but torn asunder,
I long to see your face,
To hear your voice,
But that will never be the case.
I want to pull you into an embrace,
Squeeze you tight,
For all the negatives to be erased.
Its frustrates me.
It pisses me off.
The way she can say
She wants boyfriend
When I was a great one
But no she dumped me
Cuz she was gonna cheat on me.
Like what the fuck
I wish someone had told me how hard this life was going to get.
I wish someone had told me all the memories I should have been making,
No one ever falls on purpose,
I knew you were no good for me,
but I ignored what was under the surface.
I was told you were a flirt, but that is what reeled me in.
You acted intrested, so I put up my guard again.
I wanted you so bad
Still kind of do.
Sometimes I wonder why.
We're both not quite over the past.
But I'm willing to give it a try.
You, not so much.
Chipped paint and cracked brick walls,
Yellowed moon and tower lights for stars,
Concrete plastered over green floors--
This is the world I abhor.
You were once so beautiful,
We were once so close
But this is not who i once loved
And is instead a tortured ghost
Just a shell that's been cracked
And on the verge of perish
The tears that are surfacing upon my eyes and leaving glistening trails of a salty substance are not there for the comfort you had given me.
every night i sit
watching the stars dance infinitely
hoping somehwere you are sitting
watching
waiting
wondering
if i am doing the same
Born of copper intertwined,
On a hot press in 1969.
Never meant to be worth more than a cent,
Carrying a rigid core that could not be bent.
With all of the shoving, moving tossing and throwing,
Couldn't see, couldn't hear, darkness was everywhere
Why did you leave? I needed you
More now than ever I'm so lost without the two of you
Remember when you would call me boo?
Blind Ambition
Keeps me wishin'
I had someone like You
Orange burst
of passion
Purple mist
I'm a fountain of blood in the shape of a girl that hoped one day that maybe she could be loved.
You told me I was beautiful.
You taught me to talk.
You told me I was your princess,
Don't imprison me with your determined boundaries of fear and unhappiness
My love is real, unwavering
Don't hold me so close, so tight I can't breathe
My breathe is for you, unheedingly
I hope the day reality hits me
Takes its time in coming
With the blow
I want to spend my days dreaming,
Wishing on shooting stars,
And believing the world is somehow
As the sun rises over the horizon,
Doves fly through the clouds.
The land is covered in soft green waves
Over rolling hills. Sprinkled throughout
Are brilliant flowers like confetti
I'm wishing on a star
Waiting for my dreams to come true
Still all alone in my dark little room
Just waiting for my wish to be realized
Today I wished upon a star,
To be able to smile,
To be able to live.
To be with a happy family,
To not be afraid of tomorrow,
Wished my life away,
Now I’m trying to live back my days,
I use to wish I was taller,
Now I get that I should have shut my mouth.
I wanted to be smarter,
But sometimes you need a little doubt.
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
Wishing
Wishing is for those who have screwed up
For those who have none or want more
The greedy the needy, that’s who wishing for but not just them but the broken and sore
The rich and the poor
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 wish I could, but never can. We sit here today and tomorrow and the next day until the weekend. But for what? Some of us never get anything from this is a waste of time.
Prepare yourself,
For this will not be ordinary.
To express the way I feel
Is to look upon the people of this earth with a smile in my heart
To see the distraught
the unloved
the wanting
There is winter in a faraway land
In a castle sitting on the plains
Snow whips through the air
Locking the earth in chains
The things we could do
Just me and just you
World spinning with sin
Morals wearing thin
But it's in my head
Aloud never said
Just a fantasy
Of you and of me
All kept a secret
Sofi stumbles over, Mr. Lincoln in tow--
dented, matte, oxidized-- shouts,
“eins, zwei, drei…”
She can see it,
See your heart glowing.
You think you hide it well,
But babe, it's showing.
And you know, it's just a bit obvious,
That her heart's glowing back at yours.
So tell her more... Tell her more.
The passing street signs slow as my
Hopeless gazing locks to the shine
Of the moon on the water
And I’ve made my mind
It is time for change, a brand new game,
A different set of lines
