Nec Aspera Terrent: Do Not Terrify the Rough Ones
You said I had a drug problem When really I was addicted to you Your kiss would bring the Rush to my head and the Dizziness down to my toes But you never saw that You couldn't understand What its like to be addicted And leaving me was Hard for you, but not enough To be happy in someone else's Arms I hope her kiss is addictive And she brings that rush To you; Because I never could And my addiction is still Begging for your touch Late at night When I'm higher than The stars in the night skies That remind me of your eyes The line in front of me Is just a diversion to Distract my mind of you. My Addiction

My Addiction
It started with a spark, One touch and instant Butterflies; Then the spark morphed Into flame; And the world became bright And Hot as tension grew, But the flame burned on Our hearts, And soon there was nothing But ashes;

"So you like boys AND girls?!!" "You must get laid all the time!" "Which do you like more??" "So.. What are you any way?" Questions. Stupid questions repeatedly asked because My sexuality is deemed important to others whom consider themselves curious. Because since I know that love is equal and Can be given to any gender or no gender at all, But all people talk of is Labels I have been confused as bisexual, lesbian, and straight. I have been called a deviant, A ***** A disgrace; All because I chose love over labels, I chose happiness.

****** Frustration
I don't really want your kiss on my neck, I don't want your whisper singing your song into my ear, Squeezing, Pulling me into a bed To feel that physical release into the sheets Another boy, Another night, Laying in the dark next to another stranger's ugly song, Any thing to fill the void without my Autumn Rain; And when his ugly song sings into me, I feel nothing but the nostalgia Of the same song sang by someone else; My Autumn Rain that would refresh my Soul in quiet tenderness; Her kiss would lighten my heart and the song of fall would play in our ears; But she stopped singing, And stopped caring; Then I was left alone in silence.. Now every night I let strangers sing in my ear, "Get into bed," that deafening rhythm playing on repeat; Hoping one of their songs will sound like Hers, My Autumn Rain;

Autumn Rain
The glitter is pulling the heavens to the Earth; Euphoric white all around, The snow makes the winter seem beautiful; Surrounded by death, winter is the time for Rest, Sleeping in a grave Until spring comes to resurrect life; The snow brings us beauty when Our world is covered in death, The light flutters around us in a White bliss covering the Earth; And reminds us of happier days

Snow
I told you this would happen; I would hurt you and you would be empty, I warned you I was a **** up, But you thought you could fill me whole again; So the first time I pushed you, and Took my problems out on You, You bandaged your wounds and smiled like it didn't hurt;      The second time was different. You yelled and hit and pushed and cried back at my knife Digging into your heart. And with every screaming fight and boxing match would cut A new hole into your heart, Letting it bleed out all emotions. To become unattached Like I already was; And when you were finally through; When everything I was to you became worthless, I could feel your frigid insides; As numb drifted through your veins, And every part of you became empty as you drifted away; By the time you had the courage to leave me, A new scar had formed over your wounds That will never fully heal; And your broken heart will just be a reminder, That you can never love some one that Cannot feel; I told you this would happen; I warned you never to get close, Because now you'll be like me; Empty

I Told You This Would Happen
It started. The depression, The "I don't want to talk. Let me sleep" feeling. Losing me slowly, going down a spiral leisurely. Falling away from Family, Friends, Lovers; Letting the dark overcome me and begin to simmer. At night it really is worse, Laying in bed, stuck inside my own head, Just repeating to Cut, Cut, Cut, Cut your skin; Cut it and let your inside pain seep out. So I do. I let the dark drip from the inside out And as the blood seeps from my Wrists, my Thighs, my Hips,           I Feel A Relief. It washes over me in scarlet red, As I sit there in my own darkness, As I sit there reminding myself that this is right; My pain feels right because in my head I am a Disappointment, I am a Failure, a Liar, a ***** A Fake. I have sinned and the only way to live with what I have done is to destroy myself from the inside out.      And when my pain is no longer relieved from the tip of a knife, I find alternatives.    It starts with a cigarette; Three a day, Don't want to become addicted. But as time goes, they become my friend; Always there, Always bright to see me and happy to flow through my lungs. Pretty soon I go for more. And more. And more; Until they become as dull as my blade Leaving me to fend against myself. **** ****** Ecstasy; Adderall. Whatever I could Take or Smoke or Inject, To drown out my thoughts; Disappointment. Failure. Liar. ***** Fake. The drugs give a numbing effect. No pain, but no happiness. I do not want to die. I do not wish to not exist. Yet I do not want to be Saved either. No Princess-In-Shining-Armor; there is no returning from this spiral, a one-way down hill trip.        I feel myself fall faster and faster while Struggling for breath as I close into myself; So be careful not to let the others see. Don't let them see the real you. Who would choose to be around a Disappointment, a Failure, a Liar, a ***** a Fake?
