American Most of my poems will not make sense to you, but then again, they are my emotions written into words.
*You were new I hated you from the start Everyone loved you The girls giggled as you walked past The guys called your name I sat aside and hated your fame You thought you were something else Something special But you were nothing Nothing to me You talked to me Or should i say, tried? I tried to ignore you Your stares made me abide I couldn't look away from your eyes When you would turn around And stare me down I hated it, At first But then something clicked I had an epiphany In fact, I loved the attention you were giving me She told me to watch out But she also told me the way your eyes glazed over When you gazed at me I think my eyes did the same Every stare from you Had my body reacting I started to like you But we were young It was nothing But then you talked to me And I fell in love with your voice too We joked and spoke to each other Everyday from then on But it was different It wasn't coming from you Yet I still believed it was true But she was always in the background Somehow knowing everything you said to me We fell in love We stayed together for years You were my air, Everything to me I loved you, More than anyone else. The love still is with me Even though you are gone But yet, the truth is, You never were, Because it ended up being her lies all along.*

Let's Make Believe And Call It Life
One empty heart locket, With no pictures inside You said never take this off, Wear it everyday. Maybe it was to remember. To remember all of our memories On that day. The day you became my family. The "unknown to you" lie You were telling me Would stay in my head forever. A lie too simple to not believe. You said, "I'll never leave." And in my fairytale world, I sure believed you. But when I opened my eyes, My best friend was gone. I will not forget The memories you left And I will remember The lie you spoke to me. My tiny heart locket Still remains empty, But on the outside, There is a date. The date you became a part of me. The date I got That little heart locket. The date you told me We would put a picture of us In that little heart locket. The date you told me That simple promising lie. And now as I remember That date while holding My empty little heart locket, I wish I could go back in time; Back to my fairytale world. Back to you, Back to the time You weren't going to leave, Back to the time I didn't have to wonder If you ever thought of me. Now my fairytale lives on, But only when I close my eyes. I'll never forget it Because I still have my One empty heart locket.

Missing From Me
I saw your gold eyes Through the thick brush Staring me down, As if to ask if I wanted to dance. You led me through the woods To an unfamiliar place. A sliver of moonlight was peeking Through the leaves. Others started showing up, Like it was a big ball Out here in your woods. I was Cinderella, And you were my beastly prince. "Please kiss a frog," I asked you, "So you can turn into a prince." But you looked at me with those bright eyes, And I knew you already were my prince. The gold moon Finally started peeking through, So we danced. We danced in the moonlight Until the whole moon Shown through the leaves. Then you howled. I knew it had to be another one of my dreams. But deep down, I knew it was true. I was dancing with wolves.

Dancing with Wolves
She's wearing that tiny black dress of death And that shiny necklace of lust.

Betrayal
To be young again- I remember back to the time He asked me to dance. I had not even Known his name. Mother would have Looked down at me And shook her fist While screaming, "That boy is no good!" But she did not know Our secret. We were in love Spinning in circles, Twirling me around, The band of the time Playing in the background. It turned into A weekend thing, Just him and I. Almost a year later, We were dancing To the same song On our wedding day. Mother could not be there, But I know She was watching Us twirl, Circle, Kiss, Cry, Laugh, And dance some more. We danced. We danced into our future, And danced into the night, And into our last breaths. But we were together, And that was all that mattered to us.

Dancing into Love
I do not know The exact moment I died, Maybe it was when they told me I would never again be able To look into your eyes. The willows were weeping with me- An army of broken hearts and promises All going down with me. The clouds were crying- Filled by fallen angels' tears. You only wanted to escape, The dusty corners of your mind Were never good enough. The demons made you do it; They whispered in your ear Until you could not imagine Any other way of living on. Their heinous promises Made you get on the chair And jump out of the rope's reach. They made you swallow Your screams of pain, Anger, And Regret. And then they finally closed your eyes. Their words filled my dreams; Made them nightmares. And when I walked in And found you, The demon's words filled My mind, My world, And my soul With promises That I would never be able To look into your eyes again.
