30/F I am a loving mother to a little girl. My poetry helps me escape from reality when I am overwhelmed with day to day activities.
Petals picked from a perfect flower, just to be scattered amongst the mud Pulling wings off a beautiful butterfly all because you can't fly Betraying a friend, just to fit in Taking a life all because your feelings were hurt instead of taking that lost from the fight Hiding behind lies because of your pride We as human beings have a conscious and we use it everyday, but also we as human beings try to justify a conscious decision when it all goes wrong

Soulful
Trying to make sure I'm not back tracking Because lately things seem to remind me of the past Not trying to make the same mistake twice But how do I remove myself If I can't push myself to see that it's not good

Confused
Everybody not going to receive what you put out You have to remember that they have their own insecurities to deal with as well Once they are at a point in their lives where to love and to be love matters all other pieces of insecurities in their lives cease to exist Don't force your love and feelings on someone who is not ready to receive them and then make them out to be the bad guy Note to self, just because you have the ingredients for a perfect cake does not mean it will be put together properly or come out good.

Just Saying
Tried to keep my mind at bay with the things he say Selling dreams that he didn't want me to awaken from I always wondered why I couldn't get a peek inside his life, because it turned out to be all lies I know now why everytime he lied It's because he always had a alibi Blaming me for his mistakes, when he was the one that couldn't relate Couldn't relate because of his past mistakes Mistakes that he helped make but blames his mate Now his minds wonders,acussing anything that comes his way He does not know wether he is coming or going or why his head is always spinning No help for him now because he is lost, lost in his own web of lies

Lying to hold on to love
Do you want me to grab at your heart then devour it, because I can My love for you is just as strong as your love is for me Just not trying to be lost or vulnerable Not trying to lose myself again Sometimes I feel like Im the only healthy rose in the bunch, but does that mean I have to wither away and die also Or can I stand alone and look down on all that has not prevailed

Crying out
Give it back cause its no longer yours to abuse Breathe it's all over New love darkens the doorway Again running towards a little difference Its fragile now, how much more will you put it through If this fails it's your fault No problem with letting love rest VACATION FROM HEARTBREAK

Awaken
Am I  perceived as this beautiful bombshell that has yet to explode I have laid dormant for many years but yet you fear to hold What is it that you fear, death or you being wrong about me My smile shows you that I am kind and my sweet embrace shows that you are my fate Lively soul, yes that is I Life of the party, yes why shall I lie My enthusiastic nature paints a picture of devastation But to get to know the power gives the energy to see if there is more to the image being painted

Love me for me
It was always funny to you to see me in tears I tried to express my fears, you made the situation seem weird I held my hand out asking for help, you slapped it back and said help yourself You were suppose to be my all, my everything I thought that was the reason you brought the wedding ring Time has passed and minds have cleared I have moved on and found a new reason to cry And yes it is a new guy and I cry because he makes me feel like everything is going to be alright

Where has your smile gone
Either I write to fill a void or avoid how I feel Me bottling things up have caused me stress, I have become depressed with all this **** weighting down on my chest Mix emotions about who I am destroys my mind Why do I have to settle, when I know I was made to shine Why do my wants and needs make you think I am trying to over exceed Expressing myself just gets me looked over and me hiding myself makes people think they can just run over....Me But now I see,I really do see You just want me to unleash this beast that dwells inside of me You want these pretty brown eyes to turn blood shot red and watch in fear as blood vessels burst all around my pupils You want to see this pretty smile turn gruesome and grim You want to see the limbs of pass lovers stuck between these rugged sharp teeth that protrude from my mouth You want to hear me gargling their blood and tears and see me consume what they protested as Love,Want, and Desire Are you sure you want me to unleash this beast that dwells inside me
