Most days I feel
i've been opened
and emptied
with a pudding spoon
little by little
Girls with mermaid tails wear lipstick
Know which mistakes to fix
And fix them
They laugh at easily entertained boys,
Never care about butterflies
And swim faster than the fish
I
Broke out of a cobweb town
Bought a princess crown
And lately been trying
Not to lie and never be afraid
Life is not a stage and I want to tell you all
Play no predestined role
Fear is a wall that you can demolish
God forbid I hurt your feelings, so
I'll say this once, it was fun
...maybe, when? I was a kid
No longer do you make me happy
Not so sure you ever did

Leave me on, the coffee stays warm
Keep good watch, it's boiling hot
Wish you'd slip, I'd burn your skin

These things don't make us happy
They only numb the pain
Indifference got me good, thanks to you, babe
I wrote a poem about you
Here it is, your claim to fame
just because I love you
well it don't mean I won't leave you

aw ****, what's life without love?

Hopefully you'll see me
someday
shortly

I know you can see the red light in the stars
Are you breathing finally?
with Faith, you'll see
all I can do is keep you in love with me
Relax with me, you'll see

I am the downpour that makes your petals bloom
I will fight till the fall for you



from the patient soil we will see
the king blossom with his seed
I wonder
If your eyes are twitching
If your chest is shaking
Heart rattling inside
With each breath
My skin gets tighter
My thoughts run faster
Faster and faster until
My mind is a track
Scarred from burned rubber
I wonder I wonder I wonder
We are so different
Sometimes I wonder why
You even care for me at all
When I told you I loved you
You told me you didn’t,
But you wouldn’t treat me different
It’s difficult to be in love
With your best friend
I see you all the time
But many times
I feel like you look right through me
You look at the outside
Not at the inside
You don’t comment when I’m upset
Like you don’t notice
Even when I tell you I’m upset
You stay silent.
Are you ignoring me?
Or are you giving me a shoulder to cry on?
I don’t know
It’s hard to know
Many times I feel like you don’t understand me
But we’ve known each other
For 5 years.
I feel like I’m alone in this world
But you bring in some happiness
Even though you don’t understand me
You are still my best friend.
This was written for my best friend, my true feelings. Even though he doesn't seem to understand me, I can't imagine my life without him. I did fall in love with him, but he politely told me he wasn't interested, and the next day, told me he was gay. He had told me about a week before that he was bi, and my feelings for him blossomed, because I had basically always known him as gay, so I knew it wouldn't work.  But I pretty much always had feelings for him. Even now, I know it could never work, and I am also in love with a girl that has told me she loves me back. I guess there's somebody for everybody, even someone like me
I’m a little crazy
I may be insane
But Music is my antidote
Music saves my brain.
They say I need therapy
They say that I’m depressed
But music is my antidote
I’m no longer suppressed.
I can finally be myself,
I can finally stand
Music is what kept me sane,
Someday, I'll start a band.
Again, backing away from the doom and gloom, while continuing to stay true to myself. This one actually had poetic structure. Creative writing teachers everywhere would be proud. Haha, but seriously, if it wasn't for music, I would be in a darker place than I currently am.
First it started in my head
Tried to stop it
But it bled

Then it all
star-ted to spread
to my heart and from my head

Sickly sweet emotions true
This infection
came from you

Incurable love sick affliction
Hurts so good
All the affection

Unbearable pain
Euphonious joy
All at once
Making my heart strain

Refreshing
Exhilarating

How could all this beautiful agony
Come from you
Out of so many

When I'm alone
I feel free
I feel so free
That I can just be me

When I.m not alone
I feel constricted
I feel so constricted
That I can hardly breathe

But when I'm with you
I feel everything
I feel so much of everything
That I can finally see
My stone soul softens
My singular words become sentences
My steady breath quickens  
My still heart beats again
When I'm with you
I finally feel alive
