Butterfly fly
dont forget you have wings
The worlds so full of such pretty things
Stop and smell the flowers
But dont forget
to get lost.
Being found can only happen
after because
The world spins that way
It goes round and round
But dont get too dizzy,
forget, and fall down
Butterfly fly with no destination
in mind
Enjoy the moment
And soar on this life
Meet new people And find curious things
Spark that sense of wonder
You always seem to bring
Butterfly fly
dont forget you have wings
The worlds so full of such pretty things
Stop and smell the flowers
But dont forget to get lost.
Being found can only happen
after because
Home is where the heart is
But when the heart isnt home
You get so lost
in such a big world
I know.
But Butterfly Dont forget
You can always come home

Once across my wrist
Twice across my thigh
3 more plus--
Are you ready to die?
Sorry sweetheart,
No caffeine tonight.
Cold silent toes
Vacated mind
How much more insanity lies?
The pain is there
The spark lights and dims
You keep it, still.
Observation time friends.
You said you'd be there
I should have known--
A feather light lie
worth my weight in gold.
Little and white
A ghost by the side.
Your stare never ceases,
But your mouth never moves.
Suffocating silence
The candle blows
One last glance, disinterest true
Who'd have thought--
You'd walk right through?
Empty mugs.
Bliss is gone.
Tell me where I went wrong.

Whispering wind
Howling fate
What next, a symphony to create.
A tap of my thumb.
A click of my tongue.
Yes, this is where my roots come from.
The grass flutters and bends to it's way.
The leaves rustle as the trees themselves, sway.
The thunder provides a warning.
The drops splash all about
But me, I'm underneath.
Just listening for a sound.

Why does she hate me
So much?
What did i do?
You know, I cant be
Just like you.
(Not that id want to)
"Shut up about it"
"Thats not abuse"
"Oh, im sorry."
"You must be confused"
I dont matter to you.
Too bad.
I kinda wanted to.

I'm applying for a poetry college scholarship, through blue mountain arts, and I want to know which one you guys think I should submit. Of course punctuation and spelling will be reviewed and fixed where necessary, and possiblyyy the flow might get tweaked but not much.
If you would like to participate, make a comment on the poem that says "yes".
None of my classwork thought bubble entries though please.
thannks thanks thanks!!!

(same day as III)
I'm broken & hurt
disdain & depressed-
but I must say,
I just don't know
what to do next.
I;m selfish I know.
Too easy to gloat.
for lack of better words,
I'm that kid you shouldn't know.
I have never known family,
for I have never been it.
too scared to love-
my heart is nowhere in it.
The world would be much nicer,
if I was just not in it.
wasted flesh, lies, and broken resolve.
they must have been right-
to call me a dog.
I've fought it. I've tried.
all of those lies.
it's easy. I'm fine.
just don't look me in the eyes.
or better yet do
and point as you do.
nose now full size
they've known of all my lies.
no better than the last
I think I'll just go.
Cupcakes my only facet
sorry--
that's the last of it.
and it seems I'm not the only one
with plans to just go.
No,
it's ok- really.
another broken story.
but I still feel I'm not worth it-
to wake up in the morning.
I'm sick of feeling
like there's nothing left
for me.

I fought it all alone,
and this is where it got me.
I'm sorry, but it seems
that the world
has forgot me.

pained & broken
bruised & scabbed
but not defined,
by my relapse.
hold me tight
soften the blows
treat me so,
too many now know

you can do it
you are worth it
I love you dear,
scars included;
sunshine pouring through the pane
clouded air, foggy brain
cup 'o chocolate & warm duvet
cover my head and hide away
now a cave where creatures lurk
darkness seeps through
creeks and smirks
pained delirium through tired eyes
dukes up now, patience thin
fighting sleep, leaded lids
all in the end
to give up and make friends

Haha blow my nose
Now i cant hear
No more condescending, irritating,
Buzzing in my ear
But now my ear
It seems to be underwater
And my lack of balance
Its pulling me under
Teary eyes
No im not hurt
Allergies-let me tell ya
Theyre the worst.
My nose it runs
but doesnt get far
Before it stops cold
Waiting fromafar
For this wheezing bag of bones
To catch up
Maybe make it home
But God its so fa.. *sneeze
Stupid ball of fire
And pollenated breeze
Grass grates against my feet
Everything irritates me
Yup. This yard looks nice
Close enough decided
Mouth breathing now
Logic stopped up ahead
with my nose
Close my watery eyes
As my breathing slows
