My Freedom
I had an angel and devil on my shoulder
They'd whisper to me things to follow
The devil sounded pretty hollow
Knowing the path that I would follow
The angel, however, smiled with delight
And told me I was choosing right
That angel and devil on my shoulder


The angel and devil now are one
And as for me, I'm having fun
Sometimes I'm happy, sometimes I'm sad
But every day I'm glad
That my angel and devil now are one
What happened to them, you may ask
They don't really have a task
Well not one that you can see
For they are both me

such a little thing
why do you sit on the edge of the sink
I can see how bad I hurts
and you feel like its not worth the pain
I cane see how you wish this each and every day
but the things they say
those words full of hate
I cant promise it will all be ok
but that razor is not your only friend
and I will say I will never levee you this way
ill take you broken and ill take you whole
and if choose to levee ill let you go
but each and every day I see you cry
ill make shur I'm always bye your side
baby your skin should never be the victim.
don't give yourself scars ad don let their words tear you apart
I was with you from the start
and even wen your better
and you fall in love wit somebody ells
I will always hold out my hand  
I just want you to know that I'm here and I don't mined weighting
take your time I understand
I jut want you to know that I love you

Dad
She calls out your name not in words
but in the looks on her face
She knows you wont stay
And the pain she is willing to take
All she ever wanted was for her dad to tell her he loved her
and the fact that he never did
made her broke
Now she is damaged goods
and she hates the looks they 'arnt good
Her friends treat her like she labeled fragile
and her heart is stone
But she keeps on that face she always hade to paste  on
Sitting in her room going threw her dads pitchers she brakes down her toper blows
and now she's crying because she wants her dad back
but god made him go
and she is left all alone
now in heaven he looks down
his daughter he sense her on the ground and he has one regret
he did love his daughter
but he had to go

SIN
You see she falls, another angel lost
You watch as they hit her, another Kingdome gone
Why don't you help her when she calls out to you?
Broken with no sound
She feels like a sin.
A sin that never should have bean.
So put the gun to her head.
You watch on and now she is dead
She's drowned herself so many times
and at the bottom of a bottle she thinks that It will solve her problem's
And you watch on she pop's her pills
Yellow green and blue
She hop's that you knew
That she's drowning herself In her sin
because she Is the angel that never should have bean
she puts the gun up to her head
Feeling like a sin
Broken the tears In her eyes are long gone
Now she just wants to be seat free
She pulls the trigger and she's moved on
because she knew all you would do was look on

GON
A thing I used to love is gone
and I have forgotten the words to my favorite song
the faces I can see beyond
I do not know for I am gone
I try to hold on as long as I can
but its hard now you have got to understand
its not dying, no that's easy
Its choosing to stay that makes me uneasy
I just want you to know that I never meant to hurt you
I only wanted to escape from a world who held my fate
so good by my only friend
I hope you understand
that I loved you to the end
but now I have to go
Barry me beneath the snow

broken little dream
you sit at the edge of a bath or a sink
you think the world it deadly that you find it to hard to breath
yes death is easy
and life is the hard part
But your skin should never be torn apart
yes death douse sadden us
We cant have love without pain
But you wont hear the words that i say
i cant make you stop it
i cant make you stay
but that razor that you hold
is a permanent solution
to a problem that will go away
So to put these words gently
Broken little dream,
You must chose to live
because a life without you is not worth living

Hey here I am again
Eight years later
Breaking,
Thought I'd stand a little straighter
Falling to the ground again
And it's still a ******* trend
Wishing that someone would help me up.

But of course no one hears
It's more like no one cares
My silent cries of help
You're on your own
So I sit here,
Alone
Broken.
Context: I revamped the first poem I ever wrote with commentary in italics.

Fi
Before I met you, I was a sapling -
But since then, I've grown.
And now that my branches have grown,
I'm closer to you than ever before.
And sometimes, my leaves,
Like fingertips,
Graze your matured bark in the breeze,
The same as when I timidly brushed against your thigh,

But, you are blooming with intimidating velocity
And I am wishfully thinking.

Because, to you,
I will always be that sapling,
And even though our branches may be at reach
They will always have to stretch to be together.
For our roots are anchored
Ever so deep in the ground
And there will always be that inescapable, heartbreaking space
Between our hopeless, tree trunk bodies.
We met too soon.

I'm so relieved you love yourself.
It helped me feel like it was justified
That I didn't love you.

Ernest Hemingway
The age demanded that we sing
And cut away our tongue.

The age demanded that we flow
And hammered in the ****.

The age demanded that we dance
And jammed us into iron pants.

And in the end the age was handed
The sort of **** that it demanded.

Ernest Hemingway
All armies are the same
Publicity is fame
Artillery makes the same old noise
Valor is an attribute of boys
Old soldiers all have tired eyes
All soldiers hear the same old lies
Dead bodies always have drawn flies

Pick me up and take--
Take me to my grave so I--
I can die in love
