there once was a girl who broke promises like tea glasses. It wasn't hard, really. just a little too much heat, too much pressure. maybe she just didn't pay attention, until there were tea glasses shattered all over the floor.
     but one day the girl worried that someone would see all that broken glass and start to wonder, so she grabbed fistfuls of the mess and she swallowed it all down down down where no one could ever see. and the jagged shards tore at her insides, shredded her gut into ****** ribbons, bedazzled her stomach lining like stars.
     the girl smiled and bled and broke more promises and swallowed and swallowed and swallowed. until one day those pretty tea glass promises ripped her open and everyone could see her mistakes spill out of her as she bled out on the floor.

You see that cloud up there?
Yup, that nice fluffy one right there in the blue.
I am sitting on there,
Enjoying the view from above,
Literally floating on cloud nine,
Terrified I'm gonna fall,
Hoping the cloud will not disperse,
Or will turn stormy and hurt someone.

When I was a boy, and saw bright rows of icicles
In many lengths along a wall
I was dissappointed to find
That I could not play music upon them:
I ran my hand lightly across them
And they fell, tinkling.
I tell you this, young man, so that your expectations of life
Will not be too great.

and i guess i'm just asking,
if all the things you said to yourself, appeared on your body,
would you still be beautiful?

I'm here missing you, no April fools
I don't know if its the things you did or the things I do
Like
Thinking about you all the time
Trying to change cause continuing would be a crime
Deep inside I know my education should be prime
But what do I do when the shackles don't seem to be a problem when you all that's on my mind
I fight, I struggle, I swim oceans for that salvation
The hunger that is you is in me and I hope for that starvation
Controls gone, passion gained and the future finally feels true
Even so, I feel good because I know my emotions grew
But then hey, I'm just here missing you
No April fools

Flight of Fancy


A Boy in his room one afternoon

Said, “I think I’ll fly to the moon.”

“It doesn’t look so far away,”

So he stepped outside to be on his way.

He ran to his left, then to his right.

Zoomed over a hill, disappeared out of sight.

The Trouble was he never gained any height.

He was still racing around when day became night.

During the night, plucky boy was clever,

He made wings of his arms, by stealing  sleeping birds feathers.

He did well for a beginner and flew really high.

Did he get to the moon?  I hear you cry.

He flipped and flapped through white fleecy clouds,

There were Ooooohs and Arrrrrrs from a fast gathering crowd.

But when the sun dawned bright and

The moon slipped from view.

The boy changed his plan, well wouldn’t you?

He glided down saying ”that’s enough for today.

My arms are tired and the moons gone away.”

“I did enjoy it, I had great fun.

Tomorrow I think I’ll fly to the sun.”
