I write whatever comes to mind because I have no one to share it with
I just want... To look in the mirror And not be disgusted I just want... To use my voice Without telling a lie I just want... To wake up each morning And not regret it I just want... To sleep at night Without the nightmares I just want... To be able to think And not want to cry I just want... To smile again Without being fake I just want... To look at my wrist And not see blood I just want... To live For once in my life Is that too much to ask?

I Just Want...
*Sometimes you just need rain, sadness and a broken heart in order to write.*

Drizzling Blues
there are so many things I should've said but I thought you knew. my guilt stares me in my face. but there's nothing left to do, now I only have my sweet memories of you to embrace

We hide our True selves In the big, wide world. But feel free In these dark corners To empty our hearts. Tell those most important That life's all good And confess To these strangers Our true thoughts. Don't get me wrong, I see no harm In what we do. *But which of Our poetical faces Tells lies And which Speaks true*.

Honest Liars
1,2,3,4, I count sheep; lying down on this cold pillow. Staring into darkness The black abyss staring back laughing Reflecting my own self conscience. 5,6,7,8 more sheep pass by my eye lids The wool falling off their bodies towards the doors that lead in to my sub conscience Where my mind runs rampant with thoughts That leave the wool ineffective That keeps me from entering a safe haven 9,10,11,12 This herd of sheep are wasting their time I can’t live with out something so sublime My love, My hate, My depression, My attraction All pointed towards you I get up and scream towards the sheep I’m not your shepherd I’m not your shepherd I’m not your shepherd just leave me be 13,14,16,17 Why couldn’t you stay You stranded me at bay I can’t enter the bomb shelter with out closing my eyes I can’t close my eyes with out you I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I won’t 18, 19, 20 black sheep cross the roof of my eyes as I sit here on the edge of my bed This bed is a comparison a comparison to my sanity The one that was already fragile The one you already broke 21…22…23..24…26…27…28….29….30

And Counting (Insomnia)
With the lick of a lollipop, you gain my affection. Forgetting everything, but the saxophone in the corner, possibly the stares will stay. winter is around the corner or was it spring? I can’t remember, my mind is filled with pop rocks and soda. Stars burst as you laugh, creating juicy flavours that spill out over the world. Allowing people to laugh and cry. Jolly ranchers, farming for the last echo of your laughter. I imagine the juicy fruits crying out of joy as they pull them out of the ground and pick them from the vines. I can’t stop caring I can’t stop enjoying my time staring. Its who I am. I obsess over ones I can’t have. Its my curse. Black liquorice, filled with the dark liquor. My mind wrapped up, twizzler. I’m attracted to ones that are a shelf above me. I’m a yellow star burst, thrown into a bowl of rejected m&ms; and skittles. Your candy flavoured lips covered in bright sugar and harden sprinkles. How many small glances does it take to get to the center of your heart. Stuck in the centre of my tootsie pop,beating on the glass made of pre chewed gum. I can’t see where I’m going. Getting my hands stuck. Replicating what you gave me the first time we met. I filled my empty stomach with sweets. Not so sweet now that I think about it. 40 winks and telephone calls, Small glances and hard gum balls. My obsession will be the end of me. From the chosen one to the brunette, to the lesbian. I’m stuck in an endless cycle of headaches and sick stomachs. All this candy wasn’t good for me.

Vaya Con Dios, she said as she walked off, into the foggy abyss. I return to my position on the stage and pick up my saxophone Everyone in shock and awe at the argument that just took place. A mother crying out in fear A body laying on the floor; lifeless Whats worst than losing a son. My mind in the skies I cry into my saxophone As its slowly drowned out by the sirens I think to myself, don’t worry my darling; I will be with him shortly I pull out my gun at the end of my solo. The gun that the second I bought, it was predestined “Don’t worry my darling”

Vaya Con Dios
I want to kiss a boy. I want to kiss a girl. I just want to know what it feels like to have a connection with someone.
