i'd rather you hold
my heart too tightly
than not at
all
i wish i didn't have feelings because i'm gonna get hurt yet again i just know it

At a party a guy said,
"I need a job so I can
go to the bars"
What the ****
I work 40 hours a week
so I can pay for my car
and eat
where are your priorities
am I a minority here,
surrounded by rich kids?
I just want enough to get
a grilled chicken sandwich
***** your beers and
Long Island iced teas
give me enough to
have a roof over my head
and
eat

to be controlled
by black shadows

i am fighting a disease,
so i became a ******.
my drug of choice: just to run.
to run each day with an unfeigned grit.

the medicine for my mind.
no need for a doctor to fill the prescription.
my morphine.
my high.
ease my anxious mind
and uplift my heavy heart.
calm floods my insides,
immersed in quiet rapture.
****** exhaustion settles in
and silences the disease-
those incessant, enslaving urges that regulate my every move
are replaced by stillness.
this
is bliss.
this one is personal/literal...first time working through some of my OCD via poetry.

i look like a lady
but i think like a man
and i guess in this relationship
ill probably be a little bit of both
the things i want to do in bed
are definitely not too girly
but i know that you'd enjoy
the feeling of being touched
and licked
and loved.

but, im still a lady
ill put out your chair
and be as gentle as i can
and the kisses ill give you
will be as sweet as sugar.
ill wear perfume
and my dresses will
hug my hips
and my neck will taste like
love.

ill be everything you need.
from intelligent, to lover,
to just someone you want to
listen to music with,
ill be everything you deserve.

i almost cried earlier because
for some **** reason,
church reminds me of
all the bad things that have
ever happened to me.

is that normal?

i thought church was
supposed to lift you up
because God loves you,
right?

i know he does...
but why do i constantly
need a reminder that i am
not worthy of such love?
just some thoughts about earlier today at school in church....hmm....
