I'm just a person who likes to create things rather than destroy.
The water surrounds her And takes away her breath It consumes all she is Free, at last Teal and peach, mixing and mingling The mess that she has created flows in and out The left-over oxygen, escaping her lungs Giving in, once more And in her darkest hour She decides to flee Back to the depths of the sea Sunlight, gracing her path

Teal and Peach
There once was a bundle of poppies The brightness of their life The flowers brought the children joy The adults, some hope For if something this beautiful Striving in the darkest hour In the good vase Some flowers wilting But some bursting with red This gives them hope, and joy, and peace Some forget, that though beautiful, the poppies are simply Dead.

Poppies
I'm afraid that I'm losing To myself In everything that I do. I'm afraid That I'm failing When I try my best I'm afraid I'm overwhelmed With no foreseeable escape I'm afraid I'm drowning Which is my own fault But most of all I'm afraid That I'm losing myself With every new breath I'm Gone.

I'm Afraid
Brown hair, some highlights. Pale skin, slightly tanned, many imperfections Blue eyes. Black glasses. Pink, thick lips Usually smiling But sometimes frowning Short Not even 5'0 Slightly curvy Tank top Black Scull leggings Small feet 4s in woman's Or 4.5 I can't remember. Boots. Grey or brown But it's usually boots. Is this me? All I will ever be? No. But you get it.

Look at Me
I lie to you. You, of course, lie back. And then the lie spreads to An uncomfortable degree But no one decided To stop the lie Because we all wish it to be true. And so everyone now believes the lie To be truth All thanks to me. And I lie to you.

Liar Liar
The stars are just So beautiful At night I've missed them So much When I was away The stars are just So wonderful Too look at And I just Want to be a little Closer to them The stars are just So brilliant And distracting When I look at them I am distracted And loose my problems The stars Are so Marvolus So cunning And they are all So beautifully Bright The stars are so beautiful

Stars
In the dark We lit the sparks And smiled in our happiness The fireworks were bright We had nothing to fright And we danced around our lights Then the man came You have no one to blame And this started your shame You pour the liquor down I sit there with a frown And now all I want is to get out town My love for you had no bounds

Good. I feel good. I feel comfortable in the skin that I was given I feel happy to be alive here with the people who care With the people, I would do just about everything for The ones who give me the confidence I desperately need My past is floating away The pain, lifting from my shoulders and finally, FINALLY I am here In the present No longer dwelling I understand that the past is not changeable But the future is I can change this road I paved for myself a many ago I can change Because I am good. Not perfect But not a demon I am simply Human.

Good.
My pencil drags leaving marks on the page I don't pick it up, in fear of Lossing my thoughts my mind my eyes But I put it down, and pick up my pen dragging that too across the page smearing ink afraid of making that one mistake The one mistake that ruins the pice the one that ruins the work my heart I then put that down too and chose my colors so many combinations can be made, green blue black red orange pink silver white black purple black gold But it can only be three colors, or else it looks too cluttered to messy too unfinished I choose my colors, and then they too get dragged across the page Mixing occurs blending, and I worry about the mistakes again Anxiety spikes in my mind my heart is pumping but my hands are steady And I repeat my steps, over and over and over and over and over until I get It just right And finally, I step back I look at the paper I laugh, I smile finally, no mistakes It's beautiful, but not enough so so I try again in an endless loop of pencils, pens, and color

Pencil on the Paper
I have decided that I am a no one that I need no voice no name no face Because I am now a no one I don't need to look ok I don't need to talk to anyone That I don't need friends And now that I am a no one I can run away I can sob in a corner I can do what I want Now I am a no one so I can be selfish and starved and damaged I am a no one so I am alone invisible almost ugly So, I have decided I am a no one
