American just a teenage girl, expressing myself through a pen and paper (and sometimes a rhyming dictionary.) / "I'm back to being the poet i always thought i was"-Stevie Nicks
I never thought Not even for a moment That I could have caught You're eye for even a second Glance And yet here I am tonight Whispering "I love you" No feelings hidden in the light Finally being true, no second thought About how afraid I was That first time  Out eyes met because  I didn't know if there would be A second time Here I am making promises That I intend to keep Because there is nothing less I'd give you without a seconds  Time Those stolen glances Never  knowing you were watching Me as I snuck a peek Not knowing you were giving a second glance

Without a second
Crystal forest  Are you as strong as you look Or do you shatter like the rest of us Like the prince in a story book Handsome and charming but it's not enough But when I saw your fragile side You took my breath away Youre what I'd been waiting to find Youre my crystal forest The one in a life time But I don't think I can rest  Until I make you mine An evil thought, an evil plot Ready to give up everything To obtain that which I sought No matter what consequence it may bring Then I ruined it all And in a shower of glass My crystal forest began to fall

Crystal Forest
Uncertainty I walk through this life clueless Not knowing what to do unless Someone tells me the rest Helps me escape the tests For now I'm hiding in the shadows Wondering how much you know And which are the feelings to show And what do you se when you pass me by Do you see me or a girl who's alive Cause each day that passes I loose some more Closing the gap between me and the door And when I reach it then I'll pour My feelings on this page More words with each passing day And till then I'll just wait And continue weaving these lies And remembering all those times When you made me smile instead of cry When you made me want to live, not die And we never asked the question "why?" And there was more to do than sigh And wonder where things went wrong  And listen to our certain special song And wonder why I waited so long To tell you the truth But now what's the use I've shattered everybody's trust With dreams and love and lies and lust And left myself alone So much for dreams and hope So now I'm ranting in these poems Instead of tying to find a home And as our year draws to a close An I reflect on how far we rose It didn't matter who loved te most Cause in the end it was an uncertainty Neither of us know what we need Yet no matter how it seems There's no escape for you and me

a sad hiaku
through my struggles i attempt To soar close to the Ground so I don’t Fall far And you, my Beeken of Hope have Failed me left me to My poetry alone begging On my Knees seeking comfort From this Malignant disease that has Begun to Swallow me not letting You see my Cards hiding my Tears behind a Wall of Words And still you Don’t seem to care Like I was nothing but a Game to you A game you played and now you’re through Now I’m trapped between Whitman and Plath Trying to escape this World’s wrath Yet searching for some Reason to stay Hoping you could Show me the way Make me feel the way you we used To Do that Magic thing only you can do But no that’s Not for you All you seem to do, my dearest Dope Is play your foolish jokes And make this Hell a little worse And yet I Keep trying And Wonder if you see me crying Though I try to stay Composed But you never seem to follow Always turn the other way I listened to everything you said And always believed your Lies Whispered upon those Cloudy nights Thought forever meant forever Not until you’re through This is not how I had planned it No, that’s slipping out of view Other people’s words highlighted On a Foreign page Using others thoughts to wash away the pain Words of love and loss and joy and pain Of snow, summer days and spring rain And these tears, once tears of joy Quickly becoming tears of Sorrow At the loss of our planned tomorrow And memories cut through me Like shards of Broken glass Of this Mirrored version of the world Of the world for us that I created Of happiness- simply stated Slicing through this paper girl Covered in other’s words Never could speak for myself Never seemed to be heard And now these tears are melting this paper skin Slowly revealing the girl Within Showing the girl Waiting for the day The day she finds a reason to stay But ‘till then I’ll Stretch my paper wings And Fly away from all these things But I’d still be a Paper girl A paper girl caught in the real world Slowly Tattooing myself in my own verse Hoping I’m not just making matters worse And when I get to that place (that’s not on any Map) And I never Look back would you have the guts to Chase me? and even if you do Would you have the Guts to face me? After everything I put you through How could you? Why would you? Who are you to even want to? You who Didn’t turn me away At the heart of my pain, let me stay And who is he who Demolished my heart, Though he Vowed to protect it from the very start And who are they to ignore me When I listened to Everything When I was the one who Wiped the tears away And how can They, how Can he Treat me like this? Like I didn’t make the cut, I’m Not on the list Like they’re too Good for me now He’s through so I should just Go away now But I’m not Though with you Not until I Figure out what to do And if These feelings be Unrequited Be it because you’ve sat and Waited Or because I couldn’t Take it now all the Strings have broken And the air was starting to Choke me So here I Will say thank you For showing me I Have a heart And showing me How it’s broken And tearing apart this Paper skin And revealing this Weak girl within The girl Who wouldn’t Say no to you Who would do anything you Wanted her to? Who never wanted to Say goodbye But they’ve Brought me to The brink, And rather than let Blood wash the Memories away I’ll just leave and let Myself fade And once I’ve Left the memories, Forgotten what they Mean to me And I must beg the Question, why do we Care? What is It that Pollutes our air? When all love Brings is pain And After we are Slain We return to this Petty quest Like it’s some kind of Test To see how many Times we can be broken It’s some Kind of game and souls are the Token After all, love is just Pain Romanticized And life just gives the hopeless a place to hide To justify the Tears we’ve cried So now I give my Words to you Because what Else is a Fool to do? "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." -The Great Gatsby (F. Scott Fitzgerald)

the art of lying when they see your tears you've done something wrong. when they hear your sobs somethings gone wrong when they know somethings hiding you've done something wrong when your hearts beating faster and nothing seems to matter you've done something wrong when your lies become the truth and your curtain starts to fall somethings gone wrong and when they see the scars that line your arm and you cant hide the ones that cover your heart you've really done something wrong and when your hearts had enough and you just aint so tough you've done something wrong and when your fingers on the trigger and the lies cant get bigger evgerything seems so right and you see all the hearts that you'll break with your might, maybe, just maybe you've done something right

The Art Of Lying
the soft grass tickles my bare feet as I walk across the bluegrass and I realize that it may be a bit sterotypical for a girl like me a sundress wearing sweet tea drinking southern girl like me to tell you that Kentucky is not a place i want to leave but heres the thing I've got all my teeth a pretty full vocabulary and a 28 on my ACT and here in Kentucky, we're hobbits, not hillbillies we're more than just a basketball team and maybe in the dictionary, its Daniel Boon and geography and home of the KY Derby but hell we've got Johnny Depp and George Clooney and the beautiful mountains and trees in Eastern Kentucky and we have culture and cuisine, and so many things that if you still think I'm stereotypical, then maybe I dare you to see what youre missing.

Winter Wolves Last night i dreamt of the wolves, winter wolves with icy eyes hiding under the icy sky they're eyes were like the city night beautiful big and bright One in body motion unsighted one in spirit thoughts united they are swift and graceful Winter wolves with human eyes Quickly into the trees invisible beneath the leaves This pack of winter wolves the ones with icy human eyes eyes, mysterious enchanting and enticing some are misty like smoky lies some are dark old and wise some are blue bright and true some are light young and new as morning light escapes through the clouds their fur shines silky fur shines gray like faded shoes black sleek dark and new snow white with eyes of blue black as a night with no moon Winter wolves with icy eyes winter wolves that rule the night
