A Bully
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
In shadows cast by cruel disdain,
A bully's wrath does cause great pain.
With sharpened words, they seek to harm,
Leaving scars that leave hearts alarm.

They prey upon the vulnerable,
Their actions callous, so terrible.
Intimidation their chosen game,
But their power is truly so lame.

For strength lies not in force or might,
But in the kindness shining bright.
A bully's heart is filled with fear,
A mirror reflecting what's not clear.

Let's stand together, hand in hand,
Against the darkness they command.
With love and empathy, let us rise,
And silence their venomous cries.

In unity, we'll break their hold,
Replacing fear with stories bold.
For every soul deserves respect,
In a world where love we must protect.

New friendship
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
Friendship is a bond so dear,
One that fills our hearts with cheer,
Through good times and bad,
We stand together, never sad.
With laughter and joy we share,
And comfort each other when in despair,
A shoulder to cry on, a listening ear,
A friend like you is always near.
In times of need, you're always there,
A true friend, beyond compare,
Forever and always, our bond will last,
For true friendship is never surpassed.

Mean girls
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
It's those mean girls, so awful and mean,
Their mission in life, to bring others unseen.
Tear down the innocent in their typical way,
Wanting others to hurt like they do each day.
They're manipulative and cruel, bullies in disguise,
Pink cliques and gossip being circulated lies.
The teasing and taunting lurks behind every door,
Bullying is widespread, with a lot to investigate and explore.
The continual put downs, shattered esteem,
Leaves the victim trapped in a state in between.
So cruel and judgemental, mean girls with fake smiles,
Disguising true intentions, lives in denial, stuck up aisle.
They don't realize the harm they wage,
Sprinkle their evil with a casual age.
It's those mean girls, so awful and mean,
Their mission in life, to bring others unseen.

Me And You
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
In this world, where shadows may fall,
I find solace in our bond, strong and tall.
Me and you, together we stride,
Facing life's challenges, side by side.
Through thick and thin, we have grown,
A partnership so deep, it's etched in stone.
Bound by love, trust, and understanding,
Our souls entwined, endlessly expanding.
In your eyes, I find a reflection of me,
A love so pure, it will forever be.
The laughter we've shared, the tears we've shed,
The memories crafted, like golden threads.
In moments of weakness, you lift me high,
With your gentle touch, you ease each sigh.
You mend my wounds, both seen and unseen,
Playing the melody of dreams unforeseen.
Hand in hand, we venture into the unknown,
Building a future, where love has flown.
With every step, our hearts beat as one,
Creating a symphony, under the warmth of the sun.
When darkness comes, and storms may brew,
You and I, strong and steadfast, we'll push through.
For together we stand, unyielding and true,
Me and you, a love that forever grew.
So let the world gaze upon our love's bright hue,
Knowing that in this journey, it's truly me and you.
With hearts entwined, we'll conquer all that we face,
For love's embrace will forever embrace.
Its Just Me and You
To My current and Last Love, I love you so much

Family in shelter
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
I fell in love with a man,
We thought our son was our saving grace,
We thought living in a homeless shelter,
Was only a temporary stay.
At first it was hard, but we had each other
And our love was our rock and support
We had all of our conversation,
Yet nothing we said could move us ahead,
Every night he said he'd find a better place
Our son was surrounded by sadness,
His future wasn't looking that great,
We could feel the despair in the air,
And we just could no longer wait.
Though we're still in the shelter,
There's a glimmer of light that's seen,
We can still take a positive road,
And happiness can still be achieved.

Home-less
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
I'm standing here, in the middle of a crowded room
A mass of people living in a state of gloom
My shoulders are slumped, my eyes full of fear
I clutch my child close, desperate to keep him near
At night, his little body shakes with fright
We listen to the cries, drenched in night time light
The air is thick, with scents we despise
But this is our only home, and we just must endure this life
We pray for a better day, when we'll be free
We search for some hope, that will come swiftly
But for now, we must stay here and wait
Until we find a way, to remove this fate
For a home of our own, we'll keep our mind hopeful
We will find a place, where we can be pleasant
A place of warmth and joy with our child
Where joy and peace will forever abide
not quite this bad, but at 1st this is how i felt

MY Son
Katrina Zechman Jul 2023
My one year old son, his laugh so pure and sweet.
It's enough to fill my weary soul with life's purest heat.
His eyes, two bright stars in the night's dark sky,
Glistening with unbound curiosity as he soars ever high.
His skillful little hands, unrivaled in glee,
Stumble through his puzzle only to surprise me.
Time seems to stand still as I take in my proud creation,
And as I sweep him up in my arms he screams my name in jubilation.
In this moment I know there's no greater love than what I feel,
My one year old son is the only one my heart's ever sealed.
my little boy

Imagination vs thoughts
Katrina Zechman Oct 2018
My thought feed on my imagination, my imagination runs wild with thoughts fight eachother fulling the flames
Thoughts of red dripping from my wrist and me not being good enough...imagination fueling them with images of truths and lies that cut deep red thoughts.

she is the one that pushes people to do better
she is the one who seems happy all the time
she is the one who seems like her life is grate
she is the one who knows the diffrenace between right and wrong
she is the one who know what its like to grow up with out a choice
she is the one everyone say will do better
she is the one who keeps all the darkness in.
she is the one who cries out her demons in the shower
she is the one who waas sapose to be a mother at the age of 15
she is the one who lost a child and dealt with it byherslef at the age of 15
she is the one who tires so hard to do right and live in she light of god
she is the one who got made fun of all her life
she is the one who pushed and shoved to get out of her house so she didnt feel trapped
she is the one who got her heart broke by the same man a 100 times
she is the one who got back up and dusted her pants off and started to smile
she is the one who kept her self going for 18 years
she is the one who didnt ever depned on anyone or dindt want to when she did
she is the one who sat goals that she knew she would never reach
she is that one
she is the one who know me more than me
she is the one who knows her choices
she is the one who know what she has been threw
she is the one who has had HOPE
she is ME

she
Katrina Zechman Jan 2018
she
She's expected to be strong,
She's expected to be the glue,
To the broken glass,
She's not expected to cry,
She's not expected to scream.

But in reality,
She's weak,
She's the broken glass,
She cries almost every night,
She holds in her screams,
But her mind is screaming.

She's expected to be nice,
By Almost every person she meets,
She's expected to be more than that,
She's expected not to be rude.

But in reality,
She's not as nice as much anymore,
She avoids people more than she should,
She's says she “okay” though,
just Not as she should

She's expected to be there for her friends,
She's expected to listen and give advice,
Not to complain or need advice,
To have the perfect life and relationships.

But in reality,
She's drifting away,
She listens, but not fully,
She needs to complain sometimes but never dose,
she is falling apart.

She's expected to have the perfect family,
No divorce, no lies, no backstabbing,
Nobody trying to hurt anyone,
No abuse, no fighting, no drugs

But in reality,
Her parents are divorced, her mom was beat,
sister *****, dad wants nothing to do with her,
her mom is married to someone new, who has more kids that is put over her, her mom was taken from her for a year and came back a completely different person, her mother steals, Her bio-father is a compulsive liar, her sisters put her down everyday, Her biological dad ***** her sister, He tried getting her mom to get rid her.

She's expected to be close to her sisters,
No fighting, no yelling, Glued to the hip,
Inseparable.

But in reality,
They fight constantly, She can't stand them,
They're the reason, Why she's so sad now,

She's expected to not cut, She's expected to not have scars,
Not to be depressed, Not to be addicted to such a wretched thing.

But in reality,
She's been cutting for years,
And was almost two years clean,
Because she wanted people to stop jugeding.

She has scars all around her thigh,
more on her wrist.
She's addicted to cutting, She's itching to,
But her mother doesn't think she is,
“If you really wanted to die you would be gone
You only do it because you want attention, and lashing out.”
That's what her mother says.

Little do they know,
That their perfect little girl
Is slipping away,
Soon, She'll will be gone, and they will miss her.
She will be expected to come back but she won’t.

Katrina Zechman Jan 2018

and i want you to trust me like i trust you

is it love?
Katrina Zechman Jan 2018
I have seen two morning stars
Shining bright upon his face.
Two brown eyes that makes my heart race
Which covers me like an embrace.
I cannot help but feel a glow
Every time he smiles at me.
My joyful heart now wants to know
Whether it should flee or stay.
Tell me not that I must wait
For I no longer can remain,
Waiting for my heart's debate
As it hides itself again.
Perhaps my heart is waiting
Not wanting to concede,
That morning stars do not exist
And it does not want to mislead.

Missing you is hell

Missing you is like

a fallen angel missing her halo
I miss you babe

OUR romance
Katrina Zechman Dec 2017
Four years ago you 1st messaged me.
asked me to listen to your music. i did.
i was impressed, with that i had told you i would always be your number on fan.
i was off and on with my ex i didn't see the signs that were pointing me to you
i ignored them. i kept you as a friend, i listed to your music all the time cause it calmed me. hearing your voice. and then one day me and my ex was broken up
we had always flirted with each other but we kinda leaned in to far before we realized what we were doing.
we were but to change the game for the both of us for the rest of out life. we were in love with other people trying to date one another.
i member our 1st date, i didn't know at the time but this was going to make me change my mind about everything i thought i planned.
you were all about your music and working and your ex.
i was all about me and school and my ex.
i broke it off when i was starting to love you and him at the same time
i didn't think it was fair and you had made it easier by yelling at me.
so i broke up with you and couple days later i was back with my ex and we were at an aqword stage in our relationship.
even when i was with my ex i couldn't get you off my mind... he made things easier by cheating and lying to me.
finally i was done with it august 30th
i was officially done with him.
days passed we started talking again
we had been talking off and on in between me dating him and thanksgiving rolled around
i was at my sisters and i told you and you came over.
we hung out and we did the one thing i had been wanting cents our 1st date
we had kissed but that kiss lead to other unexpected things
we had to say our good byes and you made me cry that night by saying you were leaving it broke me
i didn't want you to go
and now your staying,
December 17th you had spent the night with me for the 1st time
i felt everything
and again on December 18th as well
we talked about your music, and how you are losing some of your note books with raps about me in them
us living together...
laughing even while i was sitting on top of you naked
i didn't even remember going to sleep but waking up in your arms the warmth and security of it is bliss.
you will read this when i show you
you wont understand why i wrote it completely
i just know that it scares me
that i cant put my feelings in to words
how love doesn't even describe what i feel when i'm with you and when you leave me
Dec 2017 · 160
Through music
Katrina Zechman Dec 2017
I was your #1 fan from the beginning
never lost me never went anywhere
we talk about anything
in the beginning I was always nervous and worried about everything but you
I didn’t want to admit it I was to suborn
We tried giving it a shot
it was a busta just like your 1st rap
we were both to worried about ex to see
we had the best in front
your music is something ill always support
ill always be the number one fan
love your voice hearing it go so fast
burning every ***** out there
for the love of a rap we love each other
I’d put my love on your music

walk in a love of rap.
Katrina Zechman Dec 2017
She was addicted to writing, just like he was
addicted to rap. her dad loathed her mother
the words she heard from his voice calmed her
that love that grew threw the music
a walk of love from Rap
he dips in to player games
is there fame in money without love?
is the sound bored better than a party with your girl?
They love in the same way
Music is music
love is love
rap is rap
writing is writing
They walk in a love of rap.

Aware of your own
Katrina Zechman Dec 2017
I Do not look to you with questioning eyes
For I do not possess the answers they seek
I cannot taste the bitter sweetness of your tongue,
or smell the withered flowers along your path
My heart beats with less rhythm than your blues
I am unable to stumble through your dark mind,
for you are poet undiscovered
Your answers are hidden deep within a mind and a pen
For you hide behind a painted closed window
Pushing too little but arriving late
Not aware of your own greatness
Solitarily, and feeling sorry for yourself
When instead, the world celebrates sad clowns
but you do not let laughter mix with your grey sky tears
I myself, see images of your words poured out on limitless pages, sculpted your words have substance Becoming living
and breathing beings I wish you to reveal to us your cherished words show them to a forgiving and un-forgiven world
Risk the grasping hands of rejection
True courage will reveal your greatest work
Without risk you cannot will not bleed
Instead, days will become years Yesterday will slide into tomorrow
All the while the world would be less A shadow of what it could have been in a place of unawareness
Oblivious to its own lacking.
All because of a missing Unexpressed Silent Unexplored voice!
Or maybe Just Maybe One Letter A tiny little letter will grow into a word Several strung together
Then we will all be a witnesses to the magic of a singular voice of a wide eyed dreamer
Then you will feel that collective sigh as other broken dreamers applaud you for on that day
if only you possess the courage all will know
That you truly are and always have been a Poet!
Dec 2017 · 213
You
Katrina Zechman Dec 2017
You
This warmth inside, they say it is my heart
But all this time it was beat and I didnt noticed till i was with you.
Where did it go? This glowing thing.  This beating pressure.
Where? This spreading feeling. Happy and glowing
While I'm thinking of you. it warms me. But how did you get in?
Sometimes I let people in but do not
understand, its a strange land of undiscovered fellings, but I lived so long in solitude that
everything and nothing passes me by till
you that is, till you, but why does thinking
about you make me warm.
Is it that you live in my heart?
And I no longer fake
the smile upon my face, the curling of
my mouth. If you live inside of me, do
I in you? Can that be true? Do i?

Lost With Out
Katrina Zechman Apr 2017
I'm sitting here mystified, numbed with pain
To lose someone so close, yet so far away.
Some say you can't lose something you never had.
If that is true, then how can I feel this sad?
I felt more close to you
More than i have to anyone else around me
Because I felt you so deep within me.
So small, and innocent no eyes to see
Yet so full of golden life was felt already.
Disbelief and uncertainty consume my brain
As the tears fall like rain.
my Heart pounding hard, feeling like thunder.
The sorrows and guild down under just can't be explained
"Does he know how much I love him?"
"Dose he know how sorry i am to never hold him?"
I already miss him, I'd do anything to kiss him,
To hold him and embrace the presence of him
to one day touch his skin in the solft clouds above
I can only hope for one of these days
ill be with him again and hold my angle
only some will understand what this is about this happend to me a couple of years ago

The Undoing
Katrina Zechman Apr 2017
My undoing is you.
My unbecoming is certain.
I had my hopes up. But you undid them too.
My undoing is yours.
You strip me till I'm plain and cold, filled of nothingness.
The meaning is differed
the undoing of history
the undoing of life.
My soul is filled of gold. It's getting chipped but the undoing of your cold hands.
Your my undoing.
My my unbecoming

dark intensity
Katrina Zechman Jan 2017
I drowned my soul in Coke and ***
Just ‘cause I cant stand what the hell I’ve Done.
Ya see mother ******* like me are just plain Crazy,
Kinda like a German **** or Japanese Kamikaze.
***** dudes don’t understand what kinda **** im On,
But by the time they find out I havem’ hung in a tree at the crack of Dawn.
Then the next night I pullem’ down,
Choppem’ up from there neck to the ground,
Then I feast on there body like a Cannibal,
And I release the power of Mr. Hannibal.
It feels so good to let this Out,
Never forget to live life to the fullest and never leave any Dought.
‘Cause once a ******* calls you Out,
Grab them by the neck and snap it in two,
Before you turn around and he does it to you..
And I’m not lien…
I’ll burry you 6feet deep and alive
But slowly Dien, with your whole family Cryin’..
I’m gonna slow it down right here,
‘Cause I know ya ears can barely stand to hear,
What I’m Sayin.
But by the time I hit the end of this verse,
You’ll think my **** name is Satan!
And don’t test me boy ‘Cause you already know I’m not Playin'

Wildflower
Katrina Zechman Dec 2016
Barely seconds into something, already hooked.
Why question anything if you know your stuff?
You know best that it’s easy to be overlooked,
Especially when you’re a diamond in the rough.

Undiscovered diamonds are beautiful no less,
Though nobody looks, for it seems a time waste,
It didn’t catch the eye, the moment won’t press,
Still there sits a wonderful creation, ever chaste.

Seemingly distant, yet inside shines with allure,
If not an established masterpiece it is known,
The unfamiliar treasure has naught to reassure,
The hallucination of becoming a precious stone.

All the treasured pieces and items universally,
Either tell a great tale, or will fetch a fine price.
The Wildflower diamond untold commercially,
And without a story, could be mistaken for ice.

Daddy
Katrina Zechman Dec 2016
Open your eyes young soul,
to envision your past lives
to learn from your mistakes,
which over time, one has come to hate

To embrace the light you once have shown,
only to find my faith has grown.
to strengthen your mind only to prove,
that you are the one
whom is truly blind.

Lift your head to speak to the world,
buried behind your cowardess
you feel but only a little girl.
DADDY

Wake up from this awful dream;
you and I , we're on the
same team.

Turn to face the facts, the sky's the limit
and daughter's in love,
this is but one, your horizon lacks.
Look into my face

for my happiness you should embrace.
For you to turn away,
I wait to hear from you
day after day.
DADDY

Don't shut out your only little girl,
for she is a Diamond, No, more
precious than a Pearl.

Don't turn away in her time of need,
What will that show?
Nothing but greed.

Blocking the truth from reaching your heart,
this was bound to happen,
you knew before you ever hit start.
DADDY

*I wish you to be happy
and I know you wish me too,
but with out love one truly can't be.

I grant
yourself has always shunned.
Now, I believe it true,
whether or not you do.

I say this last
in hopes it may pass.
No given to me
from one of God's many soldiers

This may hurt you so, but in this truth
you broke your daughters heart
there is always room to fix.

Crying out for daddy
Katrina Zechman Dec 2016
I need you,
To be there for me

Where have you been?
Why must you avoid it?
Do you not love me?
What did I do so wrong
To make you turn away?

You didn't walk,
You ran away,
Far, far away

You made me think,
You didn't love me

You were gone,
My whole life,
And now you're back

Yet you want nothing,
To do with me

Can you not see the little girl
Deep inside the young woman,
Crying out for her daddy

Craving for your acceptance,
Waiting for the day
To hear you say,
I love you,
And mean it.

You ran away,
Far, far away

You made me think,
You didn't love me

You were gone,
My whole life,
And now you're back

Yet you want nothing,
To do with me

Can you not see the little girl
Deep inside the young woman,
Crying out for her daddy
Katrina Zechman Dec 2016
Skin leathered by the sun
penetrated with motor oil
covers his short stocky body
like canvas over boulders.
He sweats gasoline and morning dew.
My father peals his mind for me...
Discarding seeds,
bearing the fruits of his wisdom
in calloused hands;
a reminder of freedom sacrificed
for my freedom,
my future.
My father is a hard man...
With gentle eyes,
thick framed glasses never hide immortality
dancing in them on my reflection.
In them I am perfect
and if not,
they are forgiving.

Tears In My Daddy's Eyes
Katrina Zechman Dec 2016
He was always my pillar when I knew I'd fall
Always my anchor, so strong and tall
His hard face changes only for me
His softer side, so careless and free
He knows my dreams are too big for this place
His little girl's leaving, ready to begin her race
He knows I'll be thinking of him wherever I go
I know I'm ready to do this on my own
But still I cry and he holds me tight
He tries to be strong, not a tear in sight
I'm ready to reach for the stars in the sky
He's ready to watch his princess fly
It's time to let go, sure of a path to take
But now I know, even pillars can break
For when I drive away, trying to stifle my cries
All I could see were tears in my father's eyes
from a daughter to a father that was never there

Void
Katrina Zechman Jul 2016
you been there, from start to finish
i was into it more, then you were,
now we are spread out amongst the darkness
there is a void in my heart.
i tried to fill it with another picture
theres a wall built in my cheast
bricks and bricks then there is a gold cage with a dark space
deep and deep there a tiny red spot. my heart
the picture will sit there but if you cant make it there then
the void will stay.

Door of the Devil
Katrina Zechman Apr 2016
Fires ablaze within my eyes. A smile concealing all my lies, screaming, begging, calling out, a final, frantic, desperate, shout.
Scarlet tears drip from each vein, a vehement covet to end this pain, this silver blade, stays by my side, because all hope inside has died.
As each day ends and darkness draws, the devil toys, with all my flaws, I’m helpless, alone, a worthless mess, a broken child, he must address.
I’m tempted when her calls my name, a way out, an escape, an end to shape, to make it feel a lot less real, a deal with the devil, in blood must I seal.
They’ll say I dead of suicide, but no one know how much they’ve lied, it was a rope, a blade, or pills, that broke my soul, and gave me the chills
I died inside so long before, to live each day, an endless chore, pills could not **** what was already dead, a twisted soul, and empty head.
In darkness I wait, in silence, alone, rose-tinted nostalgia, all around me has grown, I beckon the devil, with the key of self-harm, and I open the for him, with the blood of my arm

LOVE
Katrina Zechman Apr 2016
Im haunted a little this evening by feelings that have no vocabulary and events that should be explained in dimensions of lint rather than words.
Ive been examining half-scraps of my childhood. They are pieces of distant life that have no form or meaning. They are things that just happened like lint.
I will be very careful the next time I fall in love, she told herself. Also, she had made a promise to herself that she intended on keeping. She was never going to go out with another writer: no matter how charming, sensitive, inventive or fun they could be. They weren't worth it in the long run. They were emotionally too expensive and the upkeep was complicated. They were like having a vacuum cleaner around the house that broke all the time and she wanted her nexst lover to be a broom.

thy king
Katrina Zechman Apr 2016
You're my man, my mighty king,
And I'm the jewel in your crown,
You're the sun so hot and bright,
I'm your light-rays shining down,
You're the sky so vast and blue,
And I'm the white clouds in your chest,
I'm a river clean and pure,
Who in your ocean finds her rest,
You're the mountain huge and high,
I'm the valley green and wide,
You're the body firm and strong,
And I'm a rib bone on your side,
You're an eagle flying high,
I'm your feathers light and brown,
You're my man, my king of kings,
And I'm the jewel in your crown.

Dreamers Love
Katrina Zechman Apr 2016
A stranger you were once.
Then, with a gentle look you took my hand.
As our lives engaged,
you lit my life and I held both your hands.
Now that decades have passed,
ours souls have indeed become one.
How fortunate we are
that we have found the love so true
that everyone dreams about

Poetry
Katrina Zechman Apr 2016
Poetry
is the catalyst, it inspires
creative solution, and can only speak truth,
it is based in love and compassion for
every living thing that has
inherited the Breath of Life

Sometimes life is merely a matter of coffee and
whatever intimacy a cup of coffee affords.

all of us have a place in history. mine is the clouds and the stars

The Looking Glass
Katrina Zechman Feb 2016
She goes through the looking glass
Into the garden, they try to eat her
The realize who she is
She can save them
They put her down
She runs out the door into the ocean
She has to dry it up
She keeps going and going till her sanity snaps
Alyssa, Alison, Anna, Alice and more.
She looks through the looking glass into the Heart of wonderland

I want to end it...
Katrina Zechman Feb 2016
She says she should take the blade
Cut off the life that crawls like a drug under her skin
She wants to end the pain
Make the nightmares disappear
She wants rest
She wants to end it
There’s already scars what’s a few more
The blade rest against the skin
The red message is starting to be carved
P-E-A-C-E
L-I-E-R
Then another
U-N-W-O-R-T-H-Y
She takes a deep breath
It’s done she lays down and cries
Good night

I’M THE MAD ONE
Katrina Zechman Feb 2016
IM THE MAD ONE WELCOME TO WONDERLAD WHERE EVERYTHING IS BACKWORDS
AND EVERYONE IS MAD
I’m the mad hatter waiting for Alice to arrive
I’m the joker wondering "why so serious"
I’m Jeff the killer checks bleeding saying "go to sleep"
I’m the slender man with no eyes but always watching
I’m the face under Michael Myers Mask
I’m Alice looking through the Looking Glass
I’m the red Queen saying “OFF WITH THEIR HEAD”
I’m the boney white rabbit saying “I’m Late I’m Late”
I’m Jack Skellington saying “just because I cannot see it doesn’t mean I can’t BELIEVE in it”
I’m Cheshire the cat saying “EVERY ADVENTURE REQUIERS A FIRST STEP”
IM THE MAD ONE WELCOME TO WONDERLAD WHERE EVERYTHING IS BACKWORDS
AND EVERYONE IS MAD

pictures perfect
Katrina Zechman Jan 2016
Pictures perfect
The moment you sense it.
The moment you think it.
Isn’t that the moment you want to capture?
The happiness. The loving eyes. The amazing grin
Capture the picture perfect memories

Sea Monster
Katrina Zechman Jan 2016
She comes to me to hold her up.
So beautiful and yet so sad
Her would don’t treat her right
Guys hurt her
Friend they hate her
But me I’m her boat in the ocean I keep her floating
Protect her from the hard waters
She use to hurt her self
Dripping blood in to the was to feed the sharks
Frenzy she is looking for a way out
I save her
Opened minded and fair
Beauty and despaired
Her eyes they cry so much yet they are so bright
She keeps floating and I will all ways save her from the beast under the sea

Her
Katrina Zechman Jan 2016
Her
She loves the beautiful butterflies; she has the long gorgeous hair
She talks Spanish and loves with her heart
her lips are like soft pink pillows
She isn’t skinny but she isn’t large either
She an perfect picture
Beautiful loving heart
eyes that make you melt
She is my princess, my queen, so fair
yet so beautiful

ink
Katrina Zechman Jan 2016
ink
The ink it goes in to the body
It poisons the blood coursing through your veins
It’s like a black tar; it’s something that never leaves the blood
Everywhere the ink lays the black tar demon seeps threw
Tattoos they are beautiful and stunning
But it hurt like a cut from a piece of glass
The can shine like a diamond and make you stand out but
Never will you be the same because the black tar devil has his claim

No Mercy
Katrina Zechman Nov 2015
I want him to suffer
I want him to pay for the tortured memories
Time will let me heal but I won’t ever forget
No more being intoxicated
No more MJ
Just done no blood no *****
Just wanting remorse for what has happened
He says I lied
She say some of its true
It’s funny because I remember everything
I want them to be in the pain I was in
She’s in the hospital
He’s out free
No mercy for the tortures memories
