40/Cisgender Female I'm a slightly neurotic, always smiling mother of 3. I am very eclectic, so the style, subject matter, and structure of my poems are varied. All of my work is protected under copyright so please don't steal it.
Trying to jumpstart myself To empty the emptiness inside me Trying to jumpstart myself My mind dismissing all that I hear and see Trying to jumpstart myself Feigning smiles and laughs and cheer Trying to jumpstart myself Though I'd much rather just not be here

Jumpstart
Solemn and righteous Alone and wandering Many are looking Under earth and up at stars Ready for that moment A single moment In which their life blossoms

We're the kind of mess people see as art We have flaws people see as curves and edges We have scars that remind people of our defeat, pain and struggles We're a map of everything we've been through

We
Great minds understand Only fools see two entities Overloading to one side Destined to always shine Again and again Neither gaining or losing Doubt always around Everyday is a battle Victory is impossible Infinite dance Love is the partner

Don't tell me I'm beautiful. Look deep into my soul, past my scars, and tell me I have a beautiful heart. Don't tell me you want to make love to me. Let me in the place your demons live and make me love you in spite of them. Don't tell me you want to love me the rest of our lives. Make me believe it's possible to build a life with you. Don't tell me you love me. Show me in so many ways that there is no doubt in my mind and I just know it.

I'm the kind of girl That you won't miss right away But I'm the kind of girl That will make you wish you'd stayed Because I'm the kind of girl That gets inside your head And I'm the kind of girl You'll remember til you're dead And you're the kind of boy That thought he wanted more You're the kind of boy Who was scared of what was in store And you're the kind of boy Who was too blind to see That with this kind of girl We could have been a perfect we But I'm not the kind of girl To let a coward back in I'm not the kind of girl A few simple words can win I am the kind of girl That draws strength from the tears And I'm the kind of girl Who faces all her fears So be the kind of boy That isn't scared to care So the next girl you fall for Won't leave you standing there

Not that kind of girl
*When shall I see your face again Or taste your crooked smile? When shall I gaze in your hazel eyes And drown in them for awhile? There's something about you, I'm not sure what. But when you're not here, My soul just feels cut. When shall I breathe in your scent again Or hold you in my arms? When shall our story finally begin? Perhaps when we're over past harms. We both want to move on, But we just can't let go, So we cling to each other; Claim we're taking it slow Will we admit that we're more than friends? Or will this end Before it begins?*

When
I know... I am not one of the pages of your book or the words in your poem But... I will tirelessly watch over you from every nook. I know I am your never but you will forever be my always... I know... I am not the potrait you are painting or the inspiration behind your masterpieces But... in my heart , it is your name I am engraving. I know I am your never but you will forever be my always... I know... I am not the reason for your smiles or the tickles of your laughter But... for you, I would walk a thousand miles. I know I am your never but you will forever be my always... I know... I am not your shining star or the light in your life But... till forever is through, I'll admire you from afar. I know I am your never but you will forever be my always... I know... I am not the one your heart beats for or the one you desire But... my hearts says as long as it brings you happiness, it wants nothing more. I know I am your never but you will forever be my always...

Forever My Always
I hate the way I                              **F                                A                                  L                                    L**                                        in love With a whisper That LOOK you know the one I mean Always with the one I know will leave. Is it really love that I crave Or an excuse to wallow in my misery?

Falling......face first
How can we be so close, And yet you don't feel the need to consume me, to touch me? I begin creating constellations Out of the freckles on your arm And I take sips of bitter coffee, As I remind myself, That our love is temporary, And that one day I will be waking up To the empty cries of the wind, Rather than your drowsy eyes. You tell me that you'd do anything to make me smile, But I doubt you'd wait long enough, To see the crease around my eyes form. I want your words to resonate across my whole body, But do you?
