At fifteen, I have the radiance of the morning sun. At twenty, I hope to begin to have the melancholy brilliance of the moon, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald describes.
I suppose I should be a star-gazer. Expectant of everything, As the stars are mapped and shown To their place every night. But it seems as though Everyone has seen Hailey's Comet And I've yet to see an asteroid. Always waiting, waiting. Is it such a task? I place myself At every possible spot. Years and years pass - nothing. Just a glimpse, just a drop Of that euphoria of the first time, The first wistful look into The eyes of such a wonder. But it moves away from me. Every **** time. Seeing the flaws And jagged downfalls within me. I am just a simple star. He is the comet. Never shall the two touch.

Hailey's Comet
*Hush, little baby, don't you cry, Don't you hide away in the night, I know Daddy screams, And Momma too, But I will be right here for you. It'll end soon, I promise that, So please, please, Don't touch that knife.*

Honey, I know you tried You wanted everyone to know That I was the biggest idiot in town Just for 'betraying' you. I did nothing of that sort. I just pointed out the truth The ******** you came up with and painted Has been found out and I'm not for it. So maybe I care more about myself Than about your stupid desires I know more about the insides of What your ******** caused. So you've decided to take that The last bit I was going for in this program Okay. It's not like you were going to put me in anyways. So you decided to 'rat me out'. Call me an idiot and warn others About the crap that happens When people defy you. That will totally get respect. Honey, haven't you been watching? Even Disney movies know Respect never grows out of fear But of course, You're still convinced it's 2001 And high school is still happening for you And you're still queen. The joke's on you. I'm already alienated from a lot of people You're still an idiot That nobody thinks is an adult. You're just as 'immature' as the rest of us. But excuse my french, Je ne suis pas comme toi. Je ne suis pas tres stupide. Comme toi.

As I let the memory Of my last battle Simmer inside, I realize myself. I know my decision. I follow it. I only do things That make me Happy in the best way I only force myself When I will benefit Greatly from the suffering This was useless suffering I will be fine Maybe a bit scratched Probably a tad scarred Definitely talked about Negatively and positively. If that's all, Well then, I've had worse things happen to me.

Hmm...
Walls. Nothing to think of. Not really threatening in most senses. But Walls are what kept me out And still do. Walls Are what are between me and good conversation And blocking out my sobs Walls Are slowly crumbling But it'll be a while So I'm sorry if that hurts But they're simply my walls

Walls
We're not exactly close friends At least, not in my terms. Yet you insist that we are so much alike. You scream to the world Not of any passionate emotion Just of how much better you are because you're wierd. Honey, you just made yourself normal, for one. You are not better or worse Just because you call yourself wierd. And you're kind of a hypocrite. As the true 'freak' would not give a single **** About what it is that people think And I see that you care a lot. One must to want to hide behind a label. 'Ooh, look at me, I'm [insert here]' Labels, labels, labels. Shut up about them for one ****** second, And realize that that won't take you anywhere. You claim we are both like my favorite character. I can say that I am, I've read it three times and hold it close to my heart. You take its misgivings about society and laugh. That is not what it's ******* about! It's about an introvert finding his way! You are no introvert. I'll let you have that label. As for the rest, I'll punch it out of your mouth someday.

Thinking. And thinking. It's always about a number of things, My mind never likes only one topic Mostly because I get bored easy. And I think, I'm not interested in boys. I'm interested in men. Not this annoying, ball-less ******** that hasn't learned a thing. Maybe that's why I'm forever in love with Tom Hiddleston. And I think, my body is wierd. Made of broken pieces, Glued together by angel spit. (I guess it's been battered, as my bones are falling apart as we speak.) And I think, I'm done with friendship. All it seems to do is bring me woe. You all are now acquaintances, Far enough away that you can't shoot me. And I finally think, I'm happy. Even with the **** scars and broken heart, I like the words I speak and how they power through a room. I love each morning, a new oppurtunity for adventure.

"You're in love with my mind. But sometimes, sweetheart, a woman needs a man who loves her *** (Full Moon And You're Not Here, by Sandra Cisneros) This rings true, At least in my own mind. Vice versa, plus up and down. I respect, to a point, That some may not feel That that's important at all. But oh, I've read too much Of love and lust And everything else that comes with romance. I've never settled Never will And no regret in that. My fiery heart has no room For simple plots And half baked thoughts. I think too much But it helps a little As all I do is detailed through and through. That may make me a frigid ***** Someday in some realm. I'm already used to ***** anyway. I daydream more than I dream, Which is what makes me such a dreamer. Complex twists and turns in each mind adventure. I have many hopes Though not all will be accomplished. Hopefully the best ones Will manifest as I hope. God knows I've kicked enough *** for it. I will tie myself to no one Not a man, woman, or friend At least, not yet.

Too Bad I Can't Talk to Sandra Cisneros
So, here I am Tired as hell Here in the singing room Hopeful for coffee to help And then you walk in. Wearing a seemingly simple outfit. White long sleeve and jeans Highlighting everything good in you. Maybe it's a hidden love That's been harbored in my heart Waiting to come out and try for him. And with hope, some success could come Or maybe not. Maybe I just like white fabric Against your copper hair. And I'm searching for something to cling to. Tired eyes like mine Always falling for good outfits Particularly speaking, though, White shirts are always going to **** me.

Tired Eyes & White Shirts
Hello, you I guess you're new Because anyone with any sense Would know that crossing me doesn't last I've dealt with plenty of ******* You're not new and niether are your words. Eliminating you is easier than drinking water. Doesn't cost much and takes little time. Surprised? Well, your grand mistake, Your extremely stupid move, Was trying to cross a girl like me Who has absolutely nothing to lose. Not for a while, anyway.
