I'm here to open my heart and speak my mind. I hope you find my poems stimulating.
All the memories Reside simply On my tongue.

Clothes drenched in cold sweats, Breath heavy with smog, Heart pounding in ear drums, Footsteps growing louder, Cars whirring by, Stomach tied into queasy knots... This is it The time is now- While the wounds are still fresh. Lean against the guard rail As all bad memories play on repeat; There is nothing to be saved. The whispers urge the inevitable.... Clothes dripping from cold sweats, Lungs blackened from smog, Heart rate skyrocketing, Two steps up onto the guard rail, Passing cars turn a blind eye, Stomach a flutter... Goodbye Release the fingers that hold Onto the fine line of reality. The cold wind fools the mind As adrenaline pumps through the veins; A perfect instant in time. It was the best possible way.... Clothes dried by the wind, Breathe in a new life, Heart skips a few beats, No more walking in circles, Cars slam on brakes, Stomach finally at peace.... Hello

I am hated. Have been hated All of my life. People sneered, Laughed, Whispered, Frowned, Glared, Teased. Why? Because I am Slender. Because I am Blonde. Because I am Blue eyed. Because I am Middle class. Because I am White. Because I am "Perfect". But I'm not. I am no more Perfect in the eyes Of this wretched Society than you Or anyone else. Blaming those Different than You is cruel, Even if it is Out of jealousy. Jealousy Ruins, Breaks, Destroys. I have Never Said a hurtful Word towards Anyone's appearance Or social status. Why do so to Me? This is the other side Of oppression. Of racism. Of elitism. Think Before you Speak. My life is not "Perfect". Don't bring me Down Because you think I'm Up. Why hate someone Because they are what Society deems "Acceptable"? We as a whole SURPASS "Acceptable". There is infinite Beauty In each one of our Differences. Forget about those Paper thin "Models" Who model nothing But low self esteem. It is time to be Be your own model; A model for Generations To come. If you take anything From this Feverishly construed Poem, let it be this: Do not Assume One party has it Easier Than You.

The other side
Stuck. You're stuck. So that must mean I am too. I don't want to be stuck. My love for you grows More and more each day. But I can never stay stuck. Stuck. I was stuck. Long before I met you. I didn't want to be stuck then, And I don't now. Trapped within a Disgustingly thick, slimy stuck I worked my way deep in to find Nothing but more unruly muck. Stuck. I'm only halfway stuck. But you're all the way stuck. I'm not going back in. I'll suffocate again, Lose myself and become The demon that attaches to My weakening soul like The grotesque parasite it is. You can stay stuck all you want But you'll never find me down there While you wallow around in your Muddled conceptions of yourself. Stuck. Yeah, right. But I'll be here At the edge of the muck Waiting to help you out When you get unstuck.

Stuck
I just want to feel something inside, I need you to look into my eyes, I'm so sick of pointless sparks, I want a flame inside my heart.

Sappy Love Song Chorus
I have died time and time again Just trying to escape These four walls that have Trapped me. Abused me. Mocked me. Ignored me. The beds of my nails are Crusted with crimson From the endless Scratching. Biting. Fighting. Igniting. I cannot bear it I will not bear it Yet I am still here Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. I hear them calling, Calling out names Names I do not remember Or speak of. Or know of. Or hear of. Or fear of. The time has come for A change in scenery And perhaps company; if only Wall 1 Wall 2 Wall 3 Wall 4 Were not in the way. But they are so Here I stay. ~~~ Writhing in agony I sit here in utter Silence. Screaming out words That no one hears Just to let them out Because I cannot hold them in Any longer. You will not see me anymore; I am leaving this world. I don't care if I have to break Every Bone In My Body, I am getting out. You hear that? I AM GETTING OUT.

Merry Christmas
I have come to the conclusion That all of life is merely an illusion. Time is nothing more than relative And love is ridiculously sensitive. We astonishingly keep in tact By sudden moments of impact. These moments, as glee as they may be Never last for long, especially for me. They pass by with a shimmer and a wink And when they're gone I do nothing but drink. But nothing is sadder as when I am twisted Because that moment is gone; I missed it. I do not hate myself though Because it's impossible to feel low. When I am high as a kite Just thinking about tonight. And how I came to the conclusion That all of life is merely an illusion. Happiness is a gift; Do not let it drift. For not everyone is able To feel an emotion so stable.

Illusion
Today is the day I forget yesterday's pains My soul will no longer be bound Like a weary slave's chains.... Tomorrow is the day I remember today In high hopes that all my problems Will have just melted away.... It's complicated really, But one must see Each day is meant to be forgotten So don't be surprised When I forget who you may be...
