The Concept of Love
Bailey Kreutzer Dec 2015
To me love,
Is an enigma.
Ive never seen it work.
A tooth and nail battle,
Between who's to blame.
Its always outside its cage,
Wreaking havoc,
Causing pain.

To others love,
Is a rising sun,
So beautiful in the sky,
But if you're early,
You must wait,
And if you're late,
You must wait to try,
A whole other day.
The concept of love as seen through the eyes of a young girl with a life of questionable quality
Bailey Kreutzer Nov 2015
I'll never tell you how I feel
the way I've lived my short years
Smile of the lips, cadence in my walk
I'm never honest when you want to talk
Ill say this and that, but my words will lack
Because what I mean, I always take back
I'm not trying to be mean, with you I'm not mad
Just right now, my thoughts are rather sad
I'll never tell you how I feel

Think Before You Act

Sometimes I find,
That it is harder to decide,
Than it is to do.

Smash your windows
Break down your doors
Leave but a whisper of before

That place is a poison
But you took its toxin
Now let it run its course

No One Left To Blame
Bailey Kreutzer Apr 2015
and you truly have no clue.
not even a sense, or capacity
of what you've done.

that's fine though, I'm okay now.
but, you won't be, not after you realize
That you're alone.

~and there's no one left to blame other than yourself~
Just working through some stuff I've got on my mind sorry

Again
Bailey Kreutzer Feb 2015
Again the tides swells fiercely
In a wave of hindersome despair
Relentless it berates my shores
Leaving me cold and numb
Desperately gasping for air
For the hundredth time

My Favorite Thing To Do
Bailey Kreutzer Feb 2015
If I had to pick
my favorite thing to do
Why of course
my love I would say
Spending all the time
I can with you
Just a sweet valentine poem for you

And Then Some
Bailey Kreutzer Feb 2015
And yeah,
Maybe it hurt more than I lead on
And yeah,
It still does hurt in every way as before
But now,
I know that everything is temporary
And that,
Is what makes everyday worth it
                             and then some~
It's late but yeah~(-__-")~

The Swindler

So instead of crying
I smiled

Drowning
Bailey Kreutzer Nov 2014
Somehow I forget how to breathe
        The more violent the intake
   The more my famished lungs need
       *I'm a human drowning in air
I just can't get a good breath in

Winters Embrace
Bailey Kreutzer Nov 2014
Aburn hair floating
A gentle snowflake
The feeling I desired
Winters embrace
Snows on the ground and I can't say I'm mad about it because I love winter

Unseen
Bailey Kreutzer Oct 2014
Oh but darling
If you saw the pain my eyes hold
You wouldn't think
They were so beautiful anymore
-or ever again-

Suddenly
Bailey Kreutzer Oct 2014
And suddenly I saw it,
Your beautiful face,
Had had thinned away,
And suddenly I realized,
Your beautiful presence,
Would also thin to nothing,
              And too suddenly,
                   You were gone.
You taught me how to deal with loss. I miss you.

I know that I did this to myself
subconsciously and silently
repulsive and frightening
to all but the select few
minds whom run on delusion
An acutely disturbed state of mind

The Friendship of Souls
Bailey Kreutzer Sep 2014
Wide azure eyes and a goofy grin
Dark brown orbs tinted with sin*
Our spirits may differ
But our souls are twins
-We're the best there's ever been.

Forgiveness
Bailey Kreutzer Sep 2014
I'm not afraid
that others won't forgive me
but I am afraid that
I won't forgive myself
-How can others forgive a deed they don't know have happened?

The Unavoidable Storm
Bailey Kreutzer Aug 2014
We were soaked in rain water
    Cemented to the ground
                              -----
         We couldn't say goodbye
                              -----
 A forest was shaking around us    
The wind howling louder than beasts
                              -----
              Yet there we stood
                              -----
Our eyes showed the tempest
    The unavoidable storm
Our parting was something pulled right out of a movie....unfreakinbelieveable

The Plague
Bailey Kreutzer Aug 2014
I'm corrupted and ill
The plague reaching at will
Through my heart to each finger tip
And no matter the effort
I'll never be free of it
I'm on end every second of everyday recently and it's making me Ill I just can't bring myself to ask anyone for help

Ever So Slow
Bailey Kreutzer Aug 2014
Everything is ending,
So here I sit, waiting it out alone
Though the time on the clock
Is moving ever so slow

The Story of Our Lives
Bailey Kreutzer Mar 2014
A nation so starved for love
so willing to strangle it out of any space they can grasp
but too selfish to give any of their own
Afraid there will be none left

A people so oblivious to those around too caught up in our own lives to realize
some of us don't come from loving homes of warmth
but prisons with blood wardens with cold eyes


No some of us would rather die and some of us have searching for that one moment to change it all
That one second that proves were not transparent but just alive as everyone
For a hand to reach or heart that holds
Just a moment in the story of our life
Not checked or edited just a thought that's been making me sad for a while

She's Afraid
Bailey Kreutzer Feb 2014
It's not that no one listens
Or even notice
It's that she's afraid
That if she try's to reach out
Or begin to speak up
She'll be turned away

Homesick Angels
Bailey Kreutzer Jan 2014
Homesick angels despite their wings become
tainted and covered with earths black ink,
they fight their way through everyday life
trying their very best to win, but
even the purest of lights would dim
in this world of vicious sin.
inspired by 'people help the people' by Birdy. idk

Thank you
Bailey Kreutzer Jan 2014
And in my mind your words burn deep, imprinting my every step away, from the fire that you started, with the shreds of my heart...
                 "...Thank you for teaching me early on,
                                 that others cannot be trusted."
I have no idea where this came from but... Yeah!

Solace
Bailey Kreutzer Jan 2014
Have you ever cried to the sky
Throat ripped raw from asking "why?"
Only to be answered by the deathly silence
Then be left alone to grant your own solace

Were Just Broken.
Bailey Kreutzer Dec 2013
A broken family,
Creates broken hearts,
And broken hearts,
Tear families apart,
A torn apart family,
Is considered broken,
The cycle goes on and on,
Never slowing.

I wish it Was Over
Bailey Kreutzer Nov 2013
It should be over
I did everything I could.
Years of war
fighting none other than myself.

It should be over,
but the war rages on
The demons in my head
still polluting my every though,t
my every move.

                 I wish it was over
                          but its not.
just writing this with my puppy normal sunday on netflix...what is my life

My Minds a Wonderland
Bailey Kreutzer Sep 2013
My mind;
it's like a dark wonderland.
With rabbits and hatters who lend you their hand. Into the cold Forrest.
Past the thick leaves,
and into the rose bushes that cut me.
Learning not to cry;
trying not to care
I keep following the Hatter and hare.
My world is a wonderland tainted black.
I went down the rabbit hole,
but I'm never coming back.
A kind of feeling in my world lately it seems everyone's a bit messed up with their own problems I know I am

Our Storm
Bailey Kreutzer Aug 2013
I watch the raindrops fall,
But I notice you love,
You put up walls,
as soon as our feet,
They hit the ground,
The lightning strikes,
A booming sound.
Inspired by the rain<3

Watch Me
Bailey Kreutzer Jul 2013
"You cant do it"
          they said.
                   "You'll never be good enough"
                                         they spat.
                               Back then
while part of me stung where the words had slapped
                   a small part of me still whispered in a small fading voice,
                                                                                                           *"watch me."
in a world saying "no" be the voice whom says "yes" be who you are stand up to what you believe in and if everyone on is against you fight, fight with all your strength, and remember you only given what you can handle, and bad times don't last forever, because after every storm cloud comes rain, but after the rain comes a rainbow. but all together what im trying to get acroos with this poem is that you make encounter fail after fail but that's life and sooner or later after the sweat and the tears and hard work comes success and happiness life is too short to be unhappy so find your happy :)
Bailey Kreutzer Jun 2013
On this old red carpet I once laid,
For five years and five days.
Every day I would lay on my own,
But I never really was alone.

The rich warmth on this ground.
Much like a quilt would surround.
I would block out all the sound,
Just laying on the carpet; the ground.

When the sixth day showed its color,
The measurements showed I was taller.
The magic in my world was gone.
All to the fault of the sixth dawn.

I revisit again wishing I was then.
On the red carpet the way I'd been.
Sometimes I like how the past can be.
Forever on the old red carpet will be me.
The only memory I can remember vividly is laying on my living room carpet all alone because my siblings would be at school my mother at work and my father asleep I would just lay in the sunspot on the carpet for hours daydreaming it was the happiest I ever was in my childhood :) so I thought that I should share a shed of it with everyone here :) thanks for reading it means quite a bit to me<3

I am the Phoenix
Bailey Kreutzer Jun 2013
So many times I've tried,
                             and so many times I've died.*

Bringing myself up every time
from the ashes of the past,
they burn with such sinister intensity.
Because hatred fuels the dancing flames,

                             *
but I now know.
                     I am the Phoenix.
Just got to keep moving forward:)

Lovable Ghost

I am
      just a
               lovable ghost.

This name I get called by my host.
Here one minuet...
                                  gone the next,
   Though
                          I never came,
                          and never I left.
I swear this is the best description of me ever I fade in and out because that's what my emotions are like waves if you will!:)
Bailey Kreutzer May 2013
If
   The

The Last Three Chapters
Bailey Kreutzer May 2013
I now close my book on the last three chapters.
Tears will fall, but I won't forget the laughter.
Day to day we worked together; joining together.
I won't lie we encountered turbulent weather.
United we sang, so united we will stay, always
I closed three chapters of my life just today.
The last three years at my school specifically choir I will always remember and cherish we had our very last concert today and I'm just so sad because it really puts in prospective how life goes on and nothing last forever. I know now that doesn't mean we can't look back every now and again to simply smile :) we all love you mrs. R

Found
Bailey Kreutzer May 2013
Am I
Lost again?                        
                                                                uncertain
In my own world
    Splashing in puddles.                    
                                                  happily

While dancing in these tempestuous fields of my life I am now aware that
                                          I am not lost
                                                                **I am found
It might sound crazy but I am most comfortable in the rain by my self and even crazier than that I am least lonely there as well it's just I don't know how to describe it other than a sort of utopia bubble around only me....geez I'm weird

The things we don't know
Bailey Kreutzer May 2013
The things we don't know.
things so close but fly just out of reach.
Many things too painful to hold.
Some things should never be spoken.
Some things should never be heard.
But if you learn the things you shouldn't know. it could hurt as bad as if you knew to begin with.
There are things we just shouldn't know.
There are a lot of things I wish I haven't witnessed and many things that I don't want to witness... Is ignorance really bliss??

Simple?
Bailey Kreutzer May 2013
she gave me a simple choice;
really she gave me a chance to restart.
finally could escape my chains,
the chains of anger that held me for so long.
A perfect escape where no one knew my face;
somewhere that could finally be a home.
A simple choice with a simple answer.
I knew what I wanted to say,
but I also knew what I needed to say,
so with tear filled eyes I gave my simple answer...

*no
ugh........................ TOO MANY THOUGHTS MY HEAD!!!! I COULD HAVE JUST SAID YES!!!! UGHHH
