19/F/Nevada I'm just a girl who write poems sometimes. When I find my way out of the darkness I'll pass ya the flashlight.
What is a dream? Is it mostly imagination Breaking at the seam Reaching out for any touch of passion? Or what if it was a sinking feeling That grabs hold and pulls down So much that you’re left reeling Falling into unconsciousness ready to drown But once you hit the lake Something chilling invites itself Into the only body to take Leaving you without your self Left alone in a lake of darkness You never feel anxious Life becomes so slow All you dream of is limbo A place of nothing Memories that hurt less Pain that’s calming And reassuring stress Waves of regret climbing up Deep into the limbo sky Threatening to crack the cup And leave us with no goodbye Lost thoughts in the waves Muffled sounds of hello Leading to a heart that craves Another night in limbo

Dreams of Limbo
When we all die Each one of us returns to the sky Another constellation In the galaxies composition Floating along the stars In this creation of ours A twinkle every night To help you when your in fright If your afraid in the dark Look above for my spark To let you know I’m there That I’ll always care Spaceman floating so alone Look above to feel your known Each nova burning for you No matter what you do All of my stories have been told Except for one In this universe so cold Look above and I’ll be your sun

Life feels so long, With so many feeling wrong Dozens of people with self-hate, trying to find someone to date Life’s string ready to snap, Young and old souls ready to go They have nothing to show, For too long they’ve felt like crap But you’re strong, You’re allowed to carry on They’ll notice if your gone, Even if you’ve done wrong Why should you die, And say goodbye Life’s shorter then we know, Even when it feels slow Giving up feels so easy, Like it’ll set us free Ending it feels right, So were finally out of sight No more mistakes, lonely nights full of heartache Thoughts of failure no more, From this soul so poor Break their heart in inches, Break it all His love always felt small, So you gave yourself bruises Frostbite making me feel, These cuts never allowed to heal We stay away from people, Deep down inside we’re evil Words never said, Between us laying on that bed Eyes of brown with no care, making me shed a tear He must have liked me I thought, Otherwise what was the point In hurting myself without a second thought, I guess I just live to disappoint But we are strong, Even when we fail Skin turning pale, Life’s not long For us to die here, upon hate’s triumphant spear So pick yourself up little one, Right now life’s not done Pick your chin up and look around, All these faces gone if you drowned Smiles and warmth near and far, Hundreds of voices letting you know you’re a star Live on for them if not for you, With time your heart shall no longer be in two Love will heal the pain you’ve been burying, But if you leave you’ll never find anything What am I saying, I’m just delaying I can’t even follow my own advice, Walking a life of vice So go on with yourself, See if you find life far back on the shelf I’ll just sit here, Rotting away year after year

Life's Short
Life feels so long, With so many feeling wrong Dozens of people with self-hate, trying to find someone to date Life’s string ready to snap, Young and old souls ready to go They have nothing to show, For too long they’ve felt like crap But you’re strong, You’re allowed to carry on They’ll notice if your gone, Even if you’ve done wrong Why should you die, And say goodbye Life’s shorter then we know, Even when it feels slow Giving up feels so easy, Like it’ll set us free Ending it feels right, So were finally out of sight No more mistakes, lonely nights full of heartache Thoughts of failure no more, From this soul so poor Break their heart in inches, Break it all His love always felt small, So you gave yourself bruises Frostbite making me feel, These cuts never allowed to heal We stay away from people, Deep down inside we’re evil Words never said, Between us laying on that bed Eyes of brown with no care, making me shed a tear He must have liked me I thought, Otherwise what was the point In hurting myself without a second thought, I guess I just live to disappoint But we are strong, Even when we fail Skin turning pale, Life’s not long For us to die here, upon hate’s triumphant spear So pick yourself up little one, Right now life’s not done Pick your chin up and look around, All these faces gone if you drowned Smiles and warmth near and far, Hundreds of voices letting you know you’re a star Live on for them if not for you, With time your heart shall no longer be in two Love will heal the pain you’ve been burying, But if you leave you’ll never find anything What am I saying, I’m just delaying I can’t even follow my own advice, Walking a life of vice So go on with yourself, See if you find life far back on the shelf I’ll just sit here, Rotting away year after year

When I talk you seem to never hear Yet when he is around you laugh My worse thoughts have come real I fear Love is always bitter sweet for their is another Heart of gold left alone to shatter For your heart had found another Like I never even matter So go on your way Hold his hand with that lovely smile I’ll still wait for my day The day in which I’ll find someone to walk that mile

Where am I? Why am I in this bed? And why am I in a hospital room? The air is cold as ice These blankets feel like home Back then I was sick, mom would feed me rice If I’m in the hospital, someone should be here Maybe if I say something, people will appear “Hello?” **** no response back I should look around more Oh is that food? I could use a snack It’s rice in a bowl I move my spoon around with it hitting metal The metal is an amulet with the words “My baby’s soul” My mom had a similar bracelet with her until I lost it in a gamble I was going to tell mom I lost it But she… never returned home Reports say that they never found the culprit I.. I need to leave this place Why is the floor covered in newspapers? Every paper is filled with my face Why are there no authors? Come to think of it, why are the walls just like my bedrooms walls? Covered with posters of the Detroit Lions And the picture of my mom graduating nursing school Wait.. There's a mirror on the wall I never had a mirror as a child Looking into it shows me a man standing on a bridge about to fall He’s wearing my Highschool jersey number And his wrists are bleeding His face is so full of regret and anger Are my wrists okay… They're covered in cuts and scars These cuts are dark red on my dark gray skin I.. Should have left already Time to open this door and leave Door opens to a dark night with air that is chilly I walk through the void doorway A step forward leads to me falling Looking up to see a bridge getting farther and farther away A girl is there with a phone that is calling She looks so much like my friend Sam But she keeps getting farther and farther away Until my body hits the water with a slam A single letter falls on my chest with the single word “Gay” Something warm is mixing with the cold water Air is leaving my lungs Along with my anger The girl is waving his arms towards me I want to say I love you Tell her that I feel free Yet my lips whisper “Sorry”

Upon a hill sits a wanderer. Stranger to all feeling Coward wearing no banner Hand still bears branding Look within to see sins Millions of mistakes and failures Hidden right beneath the skin Wanderer tired from running Tired of life Waking up crying Clutching for a foregone wife Tis the tale of hatred and pain Never-ending volumes added over time Forcing people insane

Wanderer
Another night filled with ash and snow An old man next to a fire with no home Yet he sits still singing alone Hoping for others to throw him a bone Oh young ones wouldn’t you care to listen Listen to an old man's advice To some I’m known as leviathan Although those people probably aren’t alive But sit around my fire now I’ll give you some wasteland advice On what your deeds can sow If your willing to pay the price Money, power, love, revenge, tradition They all mean the same really Bunch of people with a mind that’s troubled Bringing up old ideas with a thought of reinvoking “We will build out of the ashes of the old” “A new world meant for the survivors” “Old masters destroyed because we weren’t meant to obey” “WE ARE NO LONGER THE SLAVES BUT THE OWNERS” Such lies are shouted often and loud Good intentions no doubt But to bring peace and order, blood must be shed Hopes of being the hero must be doused In the wasteland your supposed to become more Yet we’re shackled to the past Leaders promising they have the key to a locked door Vowing that to **** the old you must sign the pact Industries of sin run on blood and dust Shiny lights counting down to a payout Behind smoke and mirrors you find lust All of this guarded by puppets pulled by a payroll So young ones, what will you do Denounce the past and try to be greater Embrace sin and forsake moral duty In the end you will die with no gravestone But that’s just what I have to say I’m only an old man with no home Maybe we will meet another day On that day I will judge your sins

All alone in your room stuck on your **** Flicking through that device of yours Mind stuck in a dump Since you had been barred from the outdoors Thinking of all you could be doing with friends The good times to be had Taken away leaving you at wits end Your emotions feeling just a tad bit sad So, what to do then? With all this time on one’s hands No one to talk to since you can’t call the ambulance again And your brain is going to explode from listening to that band It’s alright though Stop worrying so much and look at the clock As it ticks it will slow down time and save you from death’s blow Now let’s unlock dream world where you can spacewalk without feeling like a laughingstock Life’s easier when you go at it more calmly Letting it go at you like the waves of the ocean Not worrying about your pants being baggy or that your clumsy Being the golden showman for all isn’t you, you’d rather be the one that stays hidden Life's uncertain and full of ups and downs But the clocks tick will always go on Full of hatred for yourself only leads to a meltdown Lie down now and feel that yawn It’s rough out there and that’s no lie The battle going on goes through the body and mind Everything will be alright no need to cry Stress will make you unwind like twine so relax and put that track on rewind Worrying about academics is for another time As of now it’s time to look ahead Hitting rocks in the oceans hurts but it’s not a crime Pain from the rocks hurts but you have to keep with the waves Holding onto the rocks will make you drown Please let go now You might feel down now but you must keep on if you want that crown I may have passed but you have to move on and leave this rock behind It hurts I know to see me go But no matter what even with me gone you can count on that clock The hearts filled with woe since I passed not too long ago Just know I loved you, now wake up darling and answer that knock

As the Clock Ticks
All alone in your room stuck on your **** Flicking through that device of yours Mind stuck in a dump Since you had been barred from the outdoors Thinking of all you could be doing with friends The good times to be had Taken away leaving you at wits end Your emotions feeling just a tad bit sad So, what to do then?

Living in a world of stone Darkness all around Constant threats making you alone Chains of hate keeping you bound Then you heard her cries A women of beauty Suddenly you didn’t want to die Deep in your heart you had found your duty Protect the girl is what you told yourself This girl was tantalizing and sweetness incarnate She needed protection, nothing else But her hair and eyes made those borders evaporate Talking over and over Spending days with this fair elf A girl with skills that made her a charmer But surely you couldn’t actually love her Your a monster plain and simple Every time you leave your throne of stone Whenever they insult, you just crumple Hiding away in the dark trying to atone You failed before So why wouldn’t you again Give her back monster You will hurt her We are knights of a valiant order Trusted heroes of the realm She’ll be safe under our banner Evil cannot penetrate our helm Monster please come back You were my only friend They’re gonna execute this pyromaniac I’m just like you monster, i’m a fiend These knights tried to **** me And defile my purity But you saved me from them Please rescue me, you were the only one that made me comfy Time is running out my sweet orc The axe shall soon strike As these tears drip down my face I can be happy that you loved me for not being ladylike I’m not a monster I remember who I was All my honor was lost in the war along with my brothers A knight of the realm who respected all laws But I wasn’t human An order of orc knights had to be erased from history I survived and was scarred in mind and body Adrift in the dark until I met that maiden It’s alright now my little pyro Me and you shall live together No monster or fiend A little elf saved from the guillotine I love you orc And I love you pyro Should we run away? Only if we do it together

Welcome to the Land of Wonder Everything is an array of colors And it leaves you time to ponder Thinking of one another You might get down Alice Think of yourself less than others But that heart will never fill with malice And you will never be a bother We sit in the land of wonder So alone and wanting a light For too long they shunned her Dimming her light that was so bright Take a seat next to the Hatter Have no fear You do Matter Good times are near We all can’t be happy in a land of wonder Feeling like we don’t matter is natural No one will remember us latter But for now everyone will remember you as beautiful So many are made better by your presence We just don’t know that sometimes If you were gone we would have no essence Without that love we wouldn’t shine That cat kept talking about you his name was Chester I think Always the same how he said that this girl was so great He always said how he was glad he met her That girl was you Alice because you make others better So stay as long as you need We are here for you Alice We would be worse off without you Just ponder now in this land of wonder
