Poems

You suck, I hate you.

We’re through and done.

If only you’d stopped your lies,

Long enough to open your eyes and realize

I’ve been here all along,

But now I’m going to be gone like

Bananas part from coconut trees,

You’ll become a stranger

Parted from me. And I really

Should thank thee for making me chase thee

Because if you didn’t always leave

I wouldn’t be me and I wouldn’t

Be forgiving of what you did and said.

In your arms, I feel secure.
You are my one and only,
my safety blanket, you cover me.

In your arms, I am safe.
Nothing can hurt me at all,
except you, if you wish to.

In your arms, I relay total trust.
Trust that you will always be here,
that you will keep your promise of forever.

In your arms, I am safe.
You won't hurt me at all,
and we are meant to be.

In your arms, I feel seure.
You are my one and only,
like a safety blanket, you cover me.

Lightning rages against the night sky,

The thunder a heartbeat boom, boom, boom.

The heavens are angry,

They're relieving their pain,

Their tears fall in the form of rain.

Clouds gray, invisible in the black of night.

The moon lost, unable to shine its light.

The rain is warm, as it drips onto my skin,

My eyes close trying to understand

Why the sky's heartbeat has began to race,

And why the lightning is the only light in the sun's place

But then I hear the jealousy in the heaven's cries

He drags her in and all she feels
is the cold wet floor.
She can't see him anymore
and suddenly she feels his touch,
a hand goes up her dress.

She can't move, he's on top of her.
He's telling her to hush her screams,
laughing at her vanished voice.
Her body's stone cold as he
strips her of her dignity.

He says, it's hard to love you,
when you're screaming like this.
She screams some more, but
can he hear the screams within?

When he's done his dirty deed

His thoughts cry out in fear,
bleeding tears into his soul.
Scars invade his mind,
he's running five steps at a time.

Disintegrate my love for you,
destroy my feelings through and through.
He's screaming for you to stop this mess,
just how could you put him through this.

Break his heart on the inside,
slap him with your scars.
Watch his tears fall around you,
as you pray that no one will know.

You betrade, you're a fool

But thats okay, i'll remember you were a tool

The thing is i'll always remember

That sad, unfaithful day in September

My heart broke down, into millions of pieces

That day I knew, time decreases

Your heart is ice

You tried your dice

The clock sits, restless.

Tick, tick, tick.

Never still, never silent, never relaxing.

Always moving, working, changing.

Head spinning, numbers changing.

So fast.

No time to hang on to the time- it's already

slipped from your grasp.

Tick, tick, tick.

1...2...3...4...5...

Sitting twenty-four short inches of the edge
i fear what i cannot feel, i wonder what i cannot predict
sixteen years of my life, tumbling into saying goodbye
the cold air around me, flowing through my fingers
finding every crevace to steal my warmth
this cold air, this soft ground has defined me
it has told me who to be, where to go, what to do.
it has seen me grow, felt my hot tears when i had pain
watched my smile ripple when passion struck
it is everything, everywhere, everyone.

Walking out into the fields, remembering.

Memories as light as feathers, as soft as lambs fur.

No full memories, just small segments of each...

Her smile, her laugh, her warm hugs.

Brushing past the roses, the dandelions, thinking, remembering.

Her graceful movements, her gentle grip, her loving face lighting up the room.

Closing eyes, digging deeper, back into the past.

two ants on either end of a skipping rope, that is
You and me
the distance stretched between us
the hallway to the Moon

Your presence spans
across every corner
of my hopeful heart
Your distinct voice echoes
right across
the long, thin rope

every other second, you
Pop into my head
out of the eighty-six thousand
that
make up one whole day You take up forty three thousand
seconds of my thought
