Picture That
I picture doubters with their jaws dropped because my words they went and copped
I picture family not having to want
Those that didn’t swallow their pride won’t have to front
I.
Lines that break
on the epitome of sound
ring forth
like the swells ~~~~
of a whale
dipping into
the sea ~~~~~~~~~
Many times in school I have felt alone,
However, spoken word catches me in it's net.
It heals my the the wounds from words that may cause a broken bone.
Smile please...
Really, to say the truth I don't know what
to write..
I'm not a great person like you to impress...
I hope there is no gifts for you, other than
my few words in this four papers...
I write in you
My mother says it’s childish
My innermost thoughts
My secrets
Locked safely in the tear wrinkled pages of your tattered spirit
Burdened with my shameful exploits of debauchery and lust
Written in the stars
Is the key to make the door ajar
Have a little peek
At the weak
Minded?
I don't mind it
Written in the sea
Is a ghastly decree
The ways, paths, and roads of death
People just don't understand what we go through everday.
Sitting here, sitting there trying to make straight A's.
Looking at other people making thier grades, then we become afraid,
Let me go,
Hard past memories.
I don't need
To be reminded
Of how much
You still hurt me.
I need to be
Released.
I refuse to accept,
That this is
Just how it is.
Butterflies
In the night
Drift away
without a fight
Lose myself
Lost in you
Wondering why,
But such a pretty view
No more sadness
No more pain
Watch that blood,
I feel the stress of my life flow out of my mind and onto the page.
With the pen gripped tightly in my fingers, I know that everything is all right.
Smokey windows, shattered glass
Broken souls looking for healing
Coughing, woots and hollers
A passing waitress, traveling hands and cat calls
Dusty tables and creaky floors
One spot light
