My heart is found on the words i write down
Sometimes i wonder What it would be like If my parents had a daughter Who likes to wear heels Instead of sneakers Who likes to wear make up Instead of baseball caps Who like to wear dresses and skirts Instead of jeans and tshirts Who likes holding parties for their friends Instead of hiding from the guests Sometimes i wonder What it would be like If I weren’t me Would their life be easier? Would their life be simpler? Would their life wouldn’t be composed of disappointments, crushed hopes? i would never know the answer Because I’ll always be me

I Wonder
She wakes up everyday to a sky that changes Today it was blue She laughed and played and smiled with her friends the next day it was different it was dark and grey She walked away and hid so her strikes won't hurt anybody There are times that I wish that it would stay blue So she won't hide from the rain and disappear The dark clouds take her away and hide the person that i knew her to be she would only come out if the sky was clear, and the birds were singing so her clouds won't bring rain on skies next to hers I want to chase these clouds away far far away but they are not my clouds I could only bring shade to her when it rains She herself has to walk in the rain and smile and dance and live in the raindrops that fill her days for in the morning she would be greeted by the dawn she always deserved

I wanted to be a part of it to have a place in a picture But I realise that its an empty thought to just want to be in a pixelated piece of digital art never wanting to be in that moment that was captured by that picture to be seen not to experience

I am so tired Of smiling Of lying to myself That i can face another day Of this path I chose for myself Why did i lead myself To this path I was walking Walking Walking towards a goal Im not sure that i want anymore

Skies
The darkness is my home The cold was my roof The shadows were my walls And the silence from every corner that hid my screams But I was comfortable, or at least I thought I was I was safe or I’d like to say that I am There are times that I would go out Looking for something, yet not looking For something that would tell me That I belong somewhere else Somewhere better than this Then a face would stop me A hand would grab me And take me back To my place, in the dark But today was different Two hands grabbed me Instead of one Surprise was not enough of a word To describe what I’m feeling Fear, was first though Surprise, came second I thrashed, flailed and screamed For the two hands To let me go And leave me alone A hand was placed on my shoulder I don't know which one But I do know that it wasn't the old one For I felt warm For the first time In a long time I looked up, to see a smiling face Not the face that I usually see A terrifying one, that makes you want to go back To go home, in the darkness Instead, it’s a face worth looking Worth admiring, worth following His hand held mine, and he led me to The other side Of my home, in the darkness A side I never knew about The roof was warm Not like the cold The walls were bright Not like the shadows There were cries But with joy Instead of pain I saw things, instead of nothingness I saw things that I never thought I had Gifts talents blessings Words that I never said, that I finally wrote down And I feel bright I saw people I never met before My family, my friends But they say that I did And I believed them And I feel warm I turned back to the face that led me here Grateful that he tried To bring me out of my home in the darkness Then I looked back, and it’s still there Just on the other side Of this wonderful place Realizing that it would never go away Realizing that it never would a nagging thought Creeps into my mind That the other hand Can come back To take me to the darkness Where I belong I don't want to go back there I don't want to be with the cold, shadows, and pain I don't want that anymore Then I was shaking Someone was shaking me Then I saw the face That led me here He smiled at me And gripped my hand tighter That smile reminded me That my home Was of light and of dark They would always be a part of me But the hand would always hold mine And I felt hope That whenever I go back to the darkness He would always lead me back to the light

Before, i was scared Of talking Of speaking As if the words i utter Were acid pouring from my lips Toxic to anyone would here them So i stayed silent Subservient To other people But words , words dont just give up They want to heard To be listened Some words go out But i always take them back Why would people want to hear Words that arent even good? Arent even right? But they need to be let out. So i wrote them down On napkins, on blackboards On the sides of my textbooks On anywhere that can be written with ink or lead or chalk or anything that can be written down So words filled the sides Filling them with nouns Adjectives , similes, metaphors, , until the sides couldnt take it anymore They need a blank page But u wrote on top of the words , on the right, the left So the words overflowed But not as i thought They flowed on the other side On the front page I tried to stop them , Prevent them from going there Because someelses words were already there But i couldnt when they hit , they didnt clash fight , didnt But they greeted each other like they were old friends I was behind them The words And someone was behind them There was a person I said sorry, apologized But he just smiled, and said , i was waiting for you to make that mistake

I am anti-social, I choke at social gatherings, My breath feels nothing more than lies , The lies when people's words, Sublime into air. While everyone brags about, The last time the Sapiens Had a good time, I comfortablly drift off, Into my little Pluto, Of words, poetry and music. I am there, Yet I am not there. People think I'm a snob, The Sapiens think I'm lazy, But what do they know, The happiness in solitude. I am anti social, And the last thing, I could care about, Is You.

I am Anti Social
I used to love the smoke The calm it brings to my tortured mind I used to love a glass Filled up to the brim, chugging it down Drowning all my pain I used to love a bed Sleeping in it, For hours on end Wishing i could just sleep forever I used to love to swear As if every curse is a scream That no one would hear For the screams i heard are next to my room Sometimes, its not just shouts that i hear I used to love to lie That i was okay But i am not I used to love the needle Piercing my arm For the sting is nothing compared to the stabs at my back I used to love not knowing And knowing What is right but still chose what is wrong All of this Was before, But Before there was after, There was now
