We started off strong,
Pure and true,
But now you’re leaving me,
Feeling small and blue.
This can’t be real,
There are so many things I find I'm forced to remember.
Sloppy drawings of sleepy Buddha in the back of a rotting notebook.
Cake crossing my eager ears, as I jam my hip beneath the stair-rail,
I. DENIAL
They lie to me
and say that you are not here.
But the wind still blows,
the sky still blue, the grass green.
I will see you tomorrow.
II. ANGER
Walls aren’t made of bricks
Words aren’t made of shit
I haven’t been sick
this is never-ending bliss.
tell Them thank you, please
all those heads, shoulders, and knees
I just can´t deal with this feeling of denial
I gave it my all
It makes me feel like I don´t deserve anything at all
I scratched and clawed for an opportunity for them to say no
I will be The Judge,
You will be The Jury.
I’ll believe in the happy never-afters
and the long-forgotten fables.
Rebut me as much as you like,
Jury.
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.
Do you ever think
of how often
you escape
death’s clutches,
and you don’t even notice?
I needn’t be
The chains that
Bind you so
Alas I fear I’ve
Unknowingly
Become your
Keeper
There are no coherent words escaping your lipsYour eyes pry mine open for me to see and listenYour neck strains agains your collar to choke out the wordsI only wanted to hear what I wanted, versus what you said
Boom! Crash! Snap.
"We can't protect the fallen.
We can't relieve the screeching
Even if we try."
Trembling and weak
Denial This isn’t happening to me…I opened my eyes but chose not to see…Daily forced to face myself again…What to do when strength loses and weakness wins… Anger Why is this happening to me…?I followed the written and unwritten plan…Never give t
2016 was a piñata full of cheap candy.
All around, everyone was chirping dale, dale, dale.
Drive-bys.
Ya le diste uno.
Crooked landlords.
Ya le diste dos.
So many times I wanted to ask you, was this for real, were you serious. Did you really not feel anything, was this nothing more than an insignificant stepping stone to what you really wanted.
I am not lonely.
I am not lonely.
I am not lonely.
I am not lonely!
I am not lonely.
I AM NOT LONELY.
If I were to write you a eulogy
I would start by saying
You are not dead
I still see you in the mirror
In the smile lines painted
permanently onto my face
I carry you in the baggage under my eyes
With every unsaid wordbetween us,a new brick is addedto our wall of silence.
This silence begannaturally as wegrewboth up and apart.
Mama started goin’ gray some years ago.
Her body’s breakin’, or so she tells me
All damn night and all damn day as she cries.
I’ve got to agree; she never used to
Cry her eyes and ears off all the damn time.
The Breeze is flowing, following the day
The winds in my face, brushing all away
My amber eyes, are seeing clear
Guiding me straight, through all fear--
But I call, I call, and no one anwsers
I know that you are out there!
Please come and talk,
To a girl who feels all alone,
A girl that feels so lost.
I am bisexual,
Yes, we exist.
I am not hiding that I am gay,
Kiss my hand before you break my fingers,
The stinging pain will always linger.
Light fingertips stroke my cheek before you leave a bruise,
Without an option, there is no way I may refuse.
I don’t like to drink coffee, it intensifies my anxiety
or maybe it makes me more aware;
to uncover when i thought i was already bare.
got to fill my schedule up wth tasks;
can’t have time to simply sit.
Anger.
Hatred.
Sadness.
Each day,
Driving past your house,
I'd always wonder,
Did you ever think about me?
Did you ever miss me?
'Course not 'cause you was never there
As i watch you breathing
I look deep into your eyes
I try to read your face
For clues of any feeling
Pain or peace
I know your body is tired
It hurts to be forgettenI try to supress the painbut it still doesn't work,so my other best option
Purpose--a complex structure in our mind
Profound in sound, trivial in its utter existence.
Perfect clones don't exist, but passions mix
Painful links of genuinity and commonity.
Mirror, spotted with age and time. Rust begins to spread, but you see yourself just fine.
I've gone through adequate measures to beat the monster that resides within me
This thing lay secreted beneath the surface of my skin
Readying to rupture out at any which moment
scream soft
smile bright
blind yourself with loving light
bask and sway for one more day
to hold the scream in tight
blooming flowers
choking weeds
blind the world with loving deeds
I still dont get why you love me so.
It's a funny thing when i think of me.
And i never understand why, you won't leave my side.
Telling me we're gonna be alright
When my mind has drawn a blank,
Characteristics of time change when the clock strikes
midnight; the Moon casts his gaze on clumsily painted dreams.
A flirtatious affair under a silk cloak of stars,
Flaws and all She was born like this not very tall with curves he likes to kiss the chubby cheeks on her face a smile that lights up the place in her heart is very pure and soft voice that's hard to hear if you're not listening to the words she s
Actions speak louder than wordsSo always tell a thousand lies Laugh like there's no tomorrowOr better put, no yesterdayThe past can bite you in the assIf you don't tell a thousand lies
I'll be fine on my own
And your words break my fragile bones.
I'm done with the negativity,
You might want to get out a pen and paper and take some notes
Listen up, no texting please, awkward eyes contact is necessary
We’ll start with some basic rules, you'll want to write them down
Pay it forward.
Do the good.
Be the change.
Education is your stepping stone, no one will give you a bone.
Are we in love with people because of who they are, or because they are who we want to be?
If I would cross a thousand seas for you, maybe one day I will do it for me.
you lost the war
you began
you have to start all over
all the poor choices you made
take responsibility
for your actions
Climb a million mountains
I’ve lost my mind, it must be so,
my reason has disappeared.
Everything seems to glow
whenever you’re near
Your smile, your eyes,
You're the time taken up,
I will never have enough.
You're the words, flooding down,
I see the ink, pouring out.
You're the dreams I see at night,
I can't explain this sense of "right."
Negatively speaking, Relatively freaking
I'm lost and Distraught, hell bought seeking
A way to understand this, the reason you reprimand is
Consuming my emotions, just dooming my own oceans,
Hope is a knife, faith is murder.
She cries out to you,
but you haven't heard her,
because the truth is you don't care,
and deep down she knows,
but her hope is just the thorns
on a wilted rose.
The icy wind peels back your outer core
Unprotected; as you were from the moment
The contractions won and you tasted
Bitter, bloody air. You close the door.
Turn, and face the face of pity. Snarl at it.
You clearly have no idea
You obviously dont know
You apparently dont care
You don't even try
All the while, you're in denial
fingers run down your coat.
a hand strokes your side.
you retain nothing.
where’s the love I once felt pouring from your skin?
you aren’t absorbing the love I’m rubbing to your bone.
move, baby, look at me.
All the lies I told myself
Yesterday
Last Week
Last Month
Last Year
Ever
Only infuriate me now.
I’ve been the mermaid I always wanted to be,
swimming in De-nile.
Truthfully I care
Truthfully I will never share
True feelings
Truthfully I lie
Silently I sigh
Wishing for something more
Anxiously wanting to explore
