I am turning into the person i detest and i have no control over it.

i don't want to be like this.

bones
We danced toward
each other's wounds

with gentle step
and touched inside

and now the bleeding
has resumed

and all this blood
is hard to hide.

I pick up a pen
to let my emotions flow
The ink has dried
The paper remains empty.

I cry.
i don't even know how to handle this writer's block.

Jes
We were reckless,
We were clever.

We were fearless,
We smiled at our leisure.

Our papers were stained with our thoughts;
We suffered through our pain and yet were not distraught.

Always we were brave enough to hope;
We ceased to mope.

We heeded our minds,
And our positive thoughts, despite being entwined
With the fragments of bitter doubt.

We would not have remained without
Hopeful shards of our imagination,
Hopeful thoughts of what was to come.

bones
On the day
her body burned
she asked the
winds to be
her friends
and they
picked her
up and poured
her through
the fingers of
their hands
like a river
without ending
that won't
be tied or
bound, until
every trace of
dust embraced
the freedom it
had found.

Liz And Lilacs
There are monsters in this world.
They just aren't what we thought
when were young and innocent.
Their sly smiles and coy grins
are not pointy toothed and rotten.
Their teeth are white and straight
and you can never see their true intentions.
Shadowed minds and twisted souls
do not reflect on the outside anymore.

give me all your empty kisses
give me all your broken dreams
tell me about the man who misses
the sun's beams

give me all your nightmares
and i will shut them out
we will look at the sun flares
whilst calling everyone out

give me all your insecurities
and I'll tell you that they're gold
life ain't about impurities
so how many lies have you told?

give me all your weapons
and I'll hide them away.
talk about my demons?
they're here to stay.

give me all your empty kisses
and your lies
i stole your knife to sharpen
it and
stab you twice.
