You were like that old, worn out toy that everyone keeps from their childhood.

That thing that you keep in a box in the attic, that just takes up space,
but you don't have the heart to throw away because of all the memories that come with it.
But everyone has to throw it out or give it away at some point.

And now is that time
Alice Kay May 2013
Forced into an adult world

so early, pushed to soon.

When will he ever be a kid?

Not have to run away from the flashes to have some privacy?

And thus we come to the important question.

Even though this is his dream,

should he wait before giving up his whole life to the cameras?


No longer is it a question.

Ready of not he will be forever pushed up onto the stage.

It's time to sit back and let life

*~fly by~
Any title ideas?
Alice Kay Jan 2013
The city spreads out before you,

large and bright with sound.

In moments like this,

you feel like you own the world,

and the future is full of opportunities
Alice Kay May 2013
You sit in your seat

and the countdown

begins yet again.
Alice Kay Feb 2013
The clouds passing over head
form fifty shades of grey

The lightest shedding a bit of light on the dying grass
for only a moment before the almost-black erase the memory.

And so they march on
the never ending army of clouds
As the grass fades away into the dirt
Alice Kay Nov 2012
I'm falling behind
and I can't keep up.

Everyone else is leaping ahead
while I'm just trying to find my balance.

A breeze knocks me down again
but everyone else embraces it.

what's wrong with me?



maybe it's better i just give up

"If she makes it though the night, she will survive," the doctor said.

I can hear her word faintly, in the sub-consiousness on my brain...

                                                                                                                                               coma

"When a heart breaks, it can cause the body to go into shock, and that can result in a coma, if the body can't handle it," the doctor tried to explain. "The risks are increased especally of the heart is still in recovery."

"Has she broken her heart before?" she asked.

"Not that we know of, she is always happy" comes the response.

if only they knew... i think..as i slip

completely

                    into

Ever since you left home....its never been the same
My best friend recently moved to the other side of the country...so yeah....this is to Rachel

Those that need to matter,
to be absorbed, they cease to.

Everything that used to matter
now a competition.

Things that need to be well done
with high marks and approving glances
move down to the bottom of the list.

Things that don't matter,
like you,
as suddenly first.

All a competition.
To who will have the final say,
to who will have the final tear.
Idk.....just playing with different ideas.
Alice Kay Feb 2013
Whispers echo around the room,
the voices of crying hearts.

Crying for a change,
hoping for a new beginning,
begging for a chance,
for forgiveness.
For some reason, this confession I went to affected me in some way....I can't describe it.....I was things in a different way.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
I don't know why I keep coming back.

You never cared and never will.
****.....sometimes......
Alice Kay Dec 2012
Internet used to be really fast.

Messages to each other were sent and received right away.

But slowly, four bars turned to 3, then 2.

Every word lagged a little,

and every response started to come late.

Now theres just one bar.

And there's hardly any connection

for any length of time...

soon there will be none
Alice Kay Apr 2013
Caught in a crossfire,

and I can only say something

if it supports your argument,
Alice Kay Feb 2013
And thus I continue to distort pristine images.

Just to convince myself that something good must come from this..
I've developed a new, almost obsession, to create cubism images. Not quite sure why, but it's fun.
Alice Kay Dec 2012
If there is a cure out there

to prevent tears from falling,

Please

someone...

tell me it to save my heart from breaking.
Alice Kay Apr 2013
Why do you keep hurting me like this?

Let me be now,

you've had your share of joy stolen from me.

Leave me be and pick on someone who can take it.

I can't handle this anymore

Stop taking anything I might have left and try to fix your broken morals first
And this is goning to be how I completely lose my mind.
Alice Kay Nov 2012
And so the cycle continues

her life is fixed as mine falls apart

it won't be long be fore we switch places...




again
Dad
Alice Kay Mar 2013
Dad
Oh I'm sorry.

I forgot you're never wrong

and my argument is always invalid
Alice Kay Nov 2012
I could tell you were hurting..

but from what?



You wouldn't let me help..


And that made us fall apart




**** whatever's hurting you
                              
*and come back to me
'cause i need you...........
Alice Kay Dec 2012
**** YOU

yeah, I'm talking to you two.

the one time time and one way that i can be free

of your ****** up judgment

Oh sorry, did I offend you by swearing?

that's right, you guys have to be perfect

and no one else is perfect

especially* if they swear.

Guess that makes me a devil

So why don't you let me be and live in my own hell?
Alice Kay May 2013
Every bit of air is spent on that one breath
to blow away a dandelion

Every seed scattered will come to rest and then grow
becoming a bright yellow flower that is a symbol of spring.

But do we let them all grow for wishes to be made?
No. The older people learned that dreams don't come true.

So they cut down the flowers before the children can make wishes
and so they can't hope that their wish, something held dear to their heart will become a reality.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
Out of habit I sign into my email
just to click on an empty inbox.
I forgot you hate me now....
Alice Kay Feb 2013
We are at a stand still

neither of us want to put down our masks

but maybe that's just my imagination.
Alice Kay Oct 2012
It's like going through all your life, thinking what your doing is right...

when you should've been going left
Alice Kay Dec 2012
Everyday the nostalgia washes over at dusk

everyday I go through chats from who you were

everyday I delete one... (at least)

everyday a memory is deleted

everyday a piece of you is deleted

everyday i realize i can't know the old you anymore

everyday Hyde slowly replaces Jekyll
Alice Kay May 2013
Others have offenders from the outside,

always beating them in.

But my demons are inside.

and they can't be stopped.
Just kidding! Haha, I'm totally fine. ^_^
Alice Kay Dec 2012
It's nights like these-

When tears fall from my eyes
with the water from the shower head

and my mind drifts every few seconds
with thoughts of what we were

-that I realize I've been living in denial
Alice Kay Nov 2012
Is depression

supposed to

be this

wildly crazy

and painful

and bland

and worth

the loss

of tears?
Alice Kay Jan 2013
I need to force these words
these stories into people's minds.
They need to stop running,
bad things do happen.
What are you going to do??
Ignore them????

I could talk to someone for hours
but they still wouldn't understand
a word I have to say.
Everyone hears
but far to few ever listen.

It makes me want to cry,
how easily people forget
how easily people can ignore
deaths before their eyes.
NO ONE REALLY THINKS ABOUT ANYTHING!!!! IT MAKE ME INSANE!!!!!!!! HOW ARE PEOPLE ALREADY FORGETTING ABOUT NEWTON AND IGNORING THE FACT THAT PEOPLE ARE SLEEPING IN DOORWAYS DOWN THE STREET?????????????? ARGH!!!!!
Alice Kay Mar 2013
It's one of those days
when you just want to destroy something.

But you eventually calm down just enough
to plug in your headphones and destroy your brain instead.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
When most people move away,
it's to a different town or state.

But you had to move to a different country
and forget how to speak our language.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
I wish happy endings

happened in real life
Alice Kay Nov 2012
i can't take it anymore!

Nothings worth anything...

the dispair grabbs hold of me

dragging me down

...

i don't resist
Alice Kay Jan 2013
Let's all just sing a happy song

Sorrryyy! But I'm really hyper, and like....woah......no way I'm 14, I feel like I'm 7!!!!!! WEEEEE!!!
BEWARE THE ALICE WHEN SHE'S HYPER AHAHAHHAA!!!
Alice Kay Mar 2013
Don't play with me like that.

Don't act like you don't feel,

Don't say what you won't promise to.

Don't make another promise you'll break.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
Everything I thought I felt
All the fun we had
It all went down
down the
drain
idk :P just playing around
Alice Kay Dec 2012
When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with your crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh

Now do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do i have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Baby won't you get them if i did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part

Sometimes I feel like maybe dreams can come true.

Then I remember that's a dream as well.

I didn't realize how much I loved air,

how much a desperately needed it

...until I was drowning.
Alice Kay Jan 2013
Baby, stop drowning me.
I need air,
let me be on my own for once.

I need to swim to land,
I need to feel the solid ground beneath my feet.
stop dragging me under the surface.

Baby, please stop drowning me.
Dry
Alice Kay Dec 2012
Dry
Just let me go to sleep with dry eyes

please...

just once?
I can't stand you breaking my heart over and over.....but i still can't let you go.....
Alice Kay Mar 2013
The kitty is purring

Happy 10 Word Tuesday!!!!

I was trying a bit to hard to write something for 10w Tues. soooo, not the best. :)
Alice Kay Mar 2013
All just wishing this could last forever.

Just dreading when they have to go back

to their own reality
Alice Kay Mar 2013
Sometimes a heart will break slowly,

or it will gently tear.

Other's will create an earthquake

as the faults are ripped apart.
The body sometimes can't deal with the after-shock
Alice Kay Apr 2013
The warm glow from the windows invites everyone in

You know what.....
Ima stop crawling on my knees
just to talk to you.

If I'm worth it to you,
you'll come find me.
And if that's the case...

You better hope I didn't forget you.
idk.....rebelling a bit?
Alice Kay Dec 2012
The thunder of the falls never stops

it is always hammering into my ears

the water never stops flowing endlessly, listlessly

a monotonus scene passing before my eyes

you never leave my mind and heart
