Your Eyes
Britney Kempker Nov 2012
Your eyes,
they reveal your soul.
I don't know if you think you're hiding,
but like the child behind the pole,
I can see everything.

Desert Storm
Britney Kempker Jun 2014
Sahara sobs cease,
there is nothing left to give.
Diminishing fast.

Open
Britney Kempker Mar 2014
The faint wind whispers.
You must close your mouth to hear,
The Book His heart holds.

Thank you for the tip,
but, was it because I was nice?
Beauty means nothing.

Remember
Britney Kempker Jun 2014
Remember,
above all else,
I will love you.

When oral acid sprays
and blackened eyes gaze,
I will love you.

When my blood boils
and my charity spoils,
I will love you.

When deadly darkness descends,
apocalyptic amends
sitting in silence,
my arms will be open;
willing to love the unwilling,
willing to fill the unfulfilling,
because,
I love you.

Remember,
above all else,
I will love you.

Past
Britney Kempker Jun 2014
I can feel the evil creeping
save the light for safekeeping
And if I fall tonight
it'll be quite the plight
The road ahead
I've been misled
I want to cease
my mind at peace.
But until the present is my reality
darkness is my fatality.

Them
Britney Kempker Nov 2012
One walks out
and I seem fine.
I hide the hurt
deep, down inside.

Another walks out
and people start to see
it's starting to seriously
have an affect on me.

They continue to walk
in a single file line
out of the door,
out of my life.

I only had you
after everyone left
I thought you'd stay
different from the rest.

But then you did
what I feared you'd do
you stood up from your seat
and you left too.

You were not only my friend
but sister at heart
I didn't ever think
you'd want us apart.

You were all I had left
and now
you are
just
like
them.
A poem I found on my old myspace blog from back when i used to get bullied. maybe about 11 years old

The unruly child --
new information tugs at me,
he has no parents.

She could yell at him;
but, she takes his suffering,
buries it within.

A Hole For You
Britney Kempker Dec 2013
Here I am
at the bottom of my hole
dug by drug
and as I throw dirt out
you stand there laughing
egging me on
when I can no longer see the sun
I freeze
dust off my pants
pull myself up
and walk away
leaving you with the hole
you never help me fill in.

Her dress is vibrant,
her ghastly smile fades away,
hold on happiness.

"One of those for me"
"Your tattoo is beautiful"
a smile, a goodbye.

My silence
Britney Kempker Apr 2014
Ever wonder why
my silence reveals nothing?
It reveals nothing.
