Color guard is my job. Drama is my leisure. Band is my passion. I'm a 15 year old with a 30 year olds brain. / Poetic. Empathetic. Often pathetic. / I just wanted to be normal / But I ended up going insane instead
There was never one that I loved much more On this September day. The ties between our sacred hearts Done nothing but fall through cracks The flower bed where I used to lay Is not the same Without you

Fence sitting causes splinters But safety found in silence Watching games there playing Wondering at their worth Falsehoods blossoming like petals Some believe their truth Sighing to see the games they play Knowing of life inner truth Gathered in their numbers safety in the flock New ideas shielded by their misunderstandings Wasting all their youth Laughing in the silence The crowds they mill and flock Careful always on the edge never the boat to rock Game playing with their lies held high Again they con people [please they try Sadness fills my vision watching as they lament Beds they've made they sleep in More tricks just to pay the rent The when called on to answer The blame they lay sideways Always the fault of others Through their patterns remain the same (GE2014) (C) Reserved

Only temporary
I wish I could tell you Every little thing I think in my head But I can't because They move too fast, Are too slippery to grasp And hold onto long enough To write into lyrical thoughts Worthy of your time.

Wish I Could Tell You
In disappointing them I disappointed myself And when you disappoint yourself It's hard to tell others Because they'll never understand And they'll always ask Why When we don't have the answers We end up alone Crying And wanting to die Only disappointing them And spreading the poison That they don't deserve But Did you deserve it?

The fall
When they sweet talked you Complimented you Made you feel Special You were in a world of darkness One that was not created by your past They came by And took the darkness away Allowing you to see the light Not only in the world But in yourself The only problem was You didn't create the light They did After they left They weren't around to see You doused yourself In mediocrity

**** (noun) 1. any undesirable or troublesome plant, especially one that grows profusely where it is not wanted 2. a cigarette 3. ungainly person or animal the weeds in the garden, though sometimes unwanted, sprout from the dirt yet full of life, little in worth, yet lovely. the weeds that we smoke, dangerous to our health, tasting bittersweet like memories yet brings us short-lived ecstasy. the **** of my life, he was nothing but trouble that brought about mirth in my too-perfect garden; he frustrated the people who tended to me, growing back into my life every time they plucked him out. unwanted but lovely. dangerous but lively. he was my whole definition of ****

Access to excess holds you tight in its vice. It starts off it always feels so right filled with promise and abundance walking into that casino loaded with cash scoring the bag at Christine's weekly motel one more dab will do you. She knocks on your door and only wants you the night is filled with promises too. Is this any different then gluttonous billionaires hoarding what they can it's never enough while the rest of us drown. The waiting, waiting, waiting for it to come through there's that too. Access to excess has this advice: "I'll deal with it later" and "One more time. " Drip, drip, drip blood triggered rush images and cravings euphoric memories kaleidoscope in one body rush after another until there is no more living in your own skin. Rubbing your self raw to get back to that moment when you first walked in when abundance was real and access to excess was all you could feel. What a moment of exhilaration. Of course there are these bonuses too ending up with total deprivation "incomprehensible demoralization" Locked in a porta-potty with a guy and a pipe out of money out of time out of consciousness Access to excess what are we gonna do now.
