I know that it's wrong But he's the reason that I listen to music M.C.M

November 13th, 2015 (Return of Music)
If music could be a substance instead of the curse of food then I'd consume it for hours and never gain weight or look crude You think it's so obvious the way the need grew but my eleven year old sister she never really knew how eating devoured me piles on piles until I'd pull back and withdraw for days while internally I cried They took me to a doctor who taught me how to eat But they never found out how much of my soul had deplete Sometimes, it's too hard to feel To look in the mirror and think about how one cupcake could destroy me and make me a pig: fat and pink My sister came up to me twenty minutes after I told her "I'm glad you're still alive. I'm glad that you'll get older." And that's when I decided I'm going to beat this thing I'm going to win no matter what; I'll do anything M.C.M

August 14th. 2015 (The Ugly Side of Me)
The only thing warmer than the embrace of the ocean is the warmth of your arms that triggers my emotions Every day, people question why my heart chose you but the Princess chose the stable boy because he was the one who knew how to treat her right to keep her safe and loved and that reason might not make sense but that's the reason he's beloved by only me, the one who looks past his crude nature that's slowly disappeared maybe it's my doing maybe he holds my opinion dear to his heart and his decisions but I'll love him any way he decides to be I'll always choose to stay M.C.M

August 13th, 2015 (My Stable Boy)
Snow, snow constantly falling. Why can't it go away and stop stalling the inevitable boring classes and stuff but instead I'm snoring and surrounded by fluff My muscles, or rather the lack of, cannot take the constant movement of shovel and snow. Punishing my love of the bad weather and it makes me lament The days of snowmen and such are gone slipping through my fingers like the white powdery snow that falls on the lawn as I continue to do what is "right". Trapped in a house with colder souls oblivious to the sharp ice in my heart as I watch my siblings happily roll in the white snow. just a part of the big wide world That I do not fit in my empty shell curled into a lonely mass of sin M.C.M

February 9th, 2015 (Snow Storm)
They feel like breathing For the very first time And the only thing I can gasp is your name and I'm finally pretty **** close to feeling happy, maybe free It doesn't matter if people stare and laugh because I'll be In different mindset High in those clouds That smell of your jacket and the echo of your name loud. They squeal when they do the math put two and two together They spit out my name like disbelief, but there are worse to weather. Clothes pulled and coats cover The prints I'll never explain to my parents, for they'd not understand How much I crave for you again and again They call you the pervert, the gross one obsessed with the next hookup But it's really mostly me whose *** drive will really drub.

January 20th, 2015 (Hickey War)
I can't really pinpoint the exact moment I knew I loved you. Maybe it was when we met and you were the only person to look me in the eye. Maybe during one of the many annoying touches and shoves you often give me, I suddenly realized I liked it. Maybe it was when I looked over and happened to catch your eye from across the room. Maybe it was when you were uncharacteristically quiet and sweet when my head was too loud. Maybe it was when you put your arm around her waist, still joking with me like everything was normal. Maybe it was when I was alone and I thought of you. Maybe it was when I was crying and my friend sent a snapshot of you, lifting the pressure from my chest. Maybe it was when I first felt that warm squeeze in my chest when I thought of your hands. Maybe it was when I woke up from a dream of you and couldn't breathe. Maybe it was when I tried to picture your face when my hands grasped your shoulder and my lips pressed to your cheek. Maybe it was just there all along. Maybe the stars in the universe were just right at two am on a normal day. Maybe. M.C.M

"Maybe": A Short Story
So this is why they call it falling you're looking at the view and then you're hit Cupid's arrow pushed me off as I'm calling your name. It's like a song on my tongue and nothing else will be the same and even though I am so young and nothing could ever happen between you and me. I fall anyways, a broken young teen who can only see what she wants to be and the one who could love her if only he'd try, And even though she is sure She still wants to cry because out of all of the boys in the whole wide world she wants the foul-mouthed boy yeah, she wants to be his girl. It's funny how someone who gives me so much joy can also cause me so much pain in the heart, in the chest on the lips, in the brain. Why couldn't I want the best? when you aren't near, I can talk myself out. You're an ****** dear and you do like to shout. Yet my brain finds you endearing and I know I can't stop even though you can't be hearing these words, my heart seems to pop out of my rib cage when you're here. Everything else goes away and even if your intentions are unclear, somehow that is a-okay. My whole being manages to see every little detail of you somehow liking me. And that's how I know my eyes are untrue Because even if I'm somehow deluded by the big black jacket and big brown eyes, there's a place in your heart where I'm not included just because I have such a good disguise So in the end, I can't love you it's like swimming with a 140 pound brick yet, I still do even though it makes my logic sick. And as I drown in my emotions, sinking down with a smile. As I drown in that ocean, I hope to see you in a while.

it's like an ember consuming my brain since October. Soon September will come and his presence will alight the soothed coals. it's like a laugh that starts small but then it fills all the souls around you because you've lost all control. You're gasping for air and your sides hurt, yet you love it, you don't care about the pain you've had to have met to get that feeling. it's like a disease. when you find out, you're reeling but eventually, you're at an odd kind of ease. You know you can't stop it, there's nothing you can do at this point it's the source of all of the **** in your life. And still, you can't remember what it's like to feel normal and you end up not minding at all. you don't rue that it will **** you and make you grow cold before you've gotten to live your life because despite it all, you pretend you'll grow old and have a future with no strife.                                                     M.C.M

August 13th, 2014 (What Unrequited Love Is)
and in an instant I am alone. The storm rages on with the one I can't hone. the emotions overflow the ones I struggle to hide the ones I must contain the ones I keep inside I don't know where they came from I just want them to leave None of them make sense and they make me want to heave maybe I will talk with her even though it is no use because every time I need to lean on her, she has a good excuse "I'm here if you need me" All you have to offer is biology I don't need reasons, I need comfort you've never heard of that policy? It's funny; I seem put together but no one knows the half of it I only seem put together because I have to ******** everything I've ever done that wasn't pure passion in fact, I've found that lots of things seem to follow in this fashion. Give me a chance to decide, to sing, to love, to breathe Give me a chance to strive and wear my heart on my sleeve I'm not special no matter what they tell me I'm not really good at anything and there's nothing I could be. Of course, many people have Ideas but I don't want to care. I mean, I do anyways because I don't dare to defy my parents even though I do in my mind and my soul, blood and law bind me to their ideologies and their religion and their behavior so I'll continue to wait for the boy who will be my savior. Because it sure as hell won't be Jesus who'll take me in his arms and kiss away my tears and kiss away the girl she harms                                               M.C.M

rain drops tip toe and dance through my window the brilliant light illuminates the night and as the thunder roars my heart rate soars. The world is alive now and all I can wonder is how I will ever sleep if this weather decides to keep letting itself go because in these moments, I know that where there is beauty so dear, there is also fear M.C.M
