I didn't realize that burying my head in textbooks Drowning my thoughts in statistical calculations Masking my emotions with a blank look of contemplation Was my way of coping

Numbed by Numbers
And then the ground shook with a mighty crash, slumbering souls disturbed, rains drenching the lands, cities crumbled, winds howled. She fell to her knees on the hard tiled floor, her head filled with screams, as red ran down her arms the silence slowly encroached.

Somber Night
They are young, But they've forgotten, We grow old, We are the forgotten.

Those words Are just a part Of the pieces to This wilting tower, My crumbling crows nest Built of the cracked legos that I stepped on, again, late last night, While stumbling to the bathroom, Only guided by the lightning From the angry sky outside The window, trying to get In and drench me to my Core, chill me to my brittle Bones, that are bruised Enough, get out of My head, just Let me Sleep

warriors of teenage proportion
* And Sometimes You just need a Moment, to sit and listen To the noise of the world around You as the chaos inside of your head Finally begins to quiet And watch The snow Fall *

Said it soft and slowly, With words tantalized and teased me, Had me hanging on the edge of your twisted blade, Thought you were here to set me free, Instead you plucked off all my feathers, One by one, Recounting poems of romance and doves, As you took away my beauty, And striped away the bone, With kisses and your wicked teeth, You bled me out and with malicious might- Took my heart and fled in the night, But I am not a feeble creature, My vigor burns eternally, bright, My bones mended and my feather grew back, Black instead of white, My innocent appearance left to smolder, My ebony cloak gleams, Beneath which my scars are seen, This wicked phoenix is not dead, But born again from my own sea of red,

As all her words glitter by, A most beautiful dust in the air, It feels like she's here again, Her kind eyes all but a fading memory, The sound of her voice, An echo of life, Silenced to our minds, Confined to the past, I wish your time had lasted, Even just a second more, Wish I had hugged you just one more time, But here I am instead, Staring out the window, Watching the leaves swirl by, Cradling your precious words away.
