Terrified of my fate
     Here I go down this broken road

Step after Step
      So far so good

It always starts out that way
      Sooner or later they find the real you

Like staring into those dreaded mirrors
       multiply x5

Up close may look nice
       Far away might look good

Middle ground  always seems awkward
        The worst of you always seem to show

If it's meant to be it will
         Unflattering words to the ear

I don't really enjoy this broken road
          Pieces of my heart mixed with the dirt

The things I do for you
            Everyone puts their heart on the line

Especially when you see what you want
             So here is mine.

a depressed moon
paired with sad stars
they fall like tears
misunderstood icy wind
he's not cold hearted
just can't comfort like the sun
but my lips are blue
my toes freezing cold
because of the wind
I can't even feel my nose
but I love the way he brushes against my arms
sends chills down my spin
and send tears down my eyes
like falling stars

This is my resolution
sick of this cage you've put me in
never even saw the bars till now

cold iron bars

I find my dusty soapbox
it's stained with blood and tears

with shaky knees I stand

the view is different up here
you seem so small and I so tall
will you listen to me now?

my head rises with hope and courage

I hold the key to my cage.
My resolution set me free.

Invitation Only:

A dinner you will forget to remember.

Down the road
little kids laugh and cheer
unaccompanied by their parents
they should have endless fear

Bones in my yard
decoration of course
I'll sit on my porch
watching the joy of endless candy

Come to me little children
I'll eat you up your so **** cute
I bet you taste good too

Brains and Liver, with sauteed onions
lips and fingers, with green olives
toes and tongue dipped in vinegar

come join Serean and Dr. Lector
for your last Halloween dinner.
No kids were harmed in the making of this poem.
Thank You, I now return you to your previous program.

Breath Breath
Force yourself to breath
You'll throw up your guts
if you keep coughing enough
your throat gets dry
your heart is racing with fear
stop shaking girl
you'll get nowhere from there
tell your stomach to stop
close your eyes like this
breath in and out
just breath my dear.
If all else fails...Just Breath.

Finally the flames catch
I can feel the warmth on my bare legs
still I stand there
watching the memorizing flames
dancing over a pile of very small trash

they spread from note to note
turning it a rustic brown
to a haunting dark black

notes I've had since Jr.High
childhood
when father time and the grim reaper weren't in my head

each containing sweet words
petty thoughts
and feelings meant to last forever

trash now.

I don't need them anymore
one is taking forever to burn
it's been folded so many times
it reads Warning: spelling bad inside

Warning
Warning
Warning
I like to watch it burn

you have her
your first love

or so you told her
everything I need now
my mind holds

In the back of my mind
is a grave stone for your soul

good times are long gone
our friendship came to an end
I have no ties now
It's just me in the end

the flames begin to burn out
nothing but remains
once was black
now dark gray
and then ash white.

she just wants to be loved
she just wants to be missed

trying to be the best friend
always lending an ear
sadness sinks in
she wants the world to know she'll be there
but in turn who will be there for her?
she doesn't know
and claims to not care

a heart filled with pain
a lonely friend to a stranger
she wishes she could save the world
yet she thinks about burning it to hell

nothing matters in this life of hers
she soon will die
will someone care?
she soon will perish
did she matter?
what words of hers changed the world?

none.
