I wear a jacket almost ever day
To hide the little bit
Of my stomach poking out
I notice flat tummies
So I cross my arms over mine

I usually put my hair in my face
So people won't notice my dorky glasses
Sometimes I try to go without them
But its hard to see and read things

I wear a lot of makeup
As an attempt to hide the imperfections of my face
I don't like going without it because
I feel people always stare

I know everyone has things
They don't like about themselves
And you may think differently
But if you try and tell me
I end up not believing you
I think you're just lying to me
So I'll feel better about myself

I sometimes miss what I never had
I sometimes feel what I've never been through
I sometimes think so much I feel like screaming till my lungs clasp
I sometimes don't feel things at all
I sometimes just don't care but I pretend to for others
I sometimes think I'm too extraordinary
I sometimes wish I were more normal
I sometimes can be stupid and ashamed
I sometimes can be annoying and intruding
I sometimes can be many things and nothing
I sometimes think of all the answers to the questions left unanswered
I sometimes wish I were wiser
I sometimes make mistakes because I'm ******* human
I do so much things sometimes
Wanna go out sometime?

Trapped in this place
Prisoner,
Confined
Cornered,
In place of no walls
I wish to leave,
Time is endless
For the snow always falls
Timeless,
Frozen,
Trapped,
In this place where
Time never moves,
Where it just snows,
I'm trapped between
the outside and the in,
I wish to break out, to be free,
Let me smash my invisible prison
So that I may roam,
Not trapped between walls I can not see..
Inspired By Lindsey Sterling awesome violin player Check out shadow on YouTube and shatter me...

Yep it's going to come in this over populated world
And it won't matter if you're an old boy or girl
Robotic police will grab you quick then
Cast your body in the pit
Oh dear, oh dear but I still have got so much to give
Surely I should be allowed to live
Sorry Sir but it now to late
Cos you just reached Your Sell By Date

Poetic T
Bliss across the strings
Mellowed rhyme
Goes in to my ears
Bow
Across  
String
Like grace never seen
Two parts that combine
To make the instrument alive
Vibration,
Acoustics,
Music,
Enters me
Parts never touched
By music
Now energized by bow and string
I wish to fill my
Mind,
Body,
Soul,
Taking me to a place
I have never been or seen  
I'm high on music
I have fallen for the bow and string

Poetic T
The exhale of breath in the air
The shriek of no words
Only noise
Putting hairs on end.
Hand prints on a mirror,
Not knowing how they got there,
Like they climbed upon
Invisible,
Stairs,
Reflections not of my own
Teasing me with opened mouths
Silence,
Quite,
Deafening,
Noise heard there,
But mouths closed shut,
Light refracts
Light absorbed to no where
The reflections
Alive,
Caporal,
Reflections
Inanimate no longer
They follow, filling with terror,
My waking day,
For everywhere reflects
Light
They will be seen,
I have burnt a hundred times,
But no scares, just the pain inside,
They show what was, and store
The image to release the
Pain of all who died,
They release there
Anger,
Pain,
Hate,
To who ever touches their  surface,
They are watched from,
The reflection of pain
That must be shared on the other side...
Freaked me out writing this in the dark with two large mirrors in the dark..

I get soo bored
  I could cry
   Just sleep away the time
     I could be something better
    Or else with my life
       Don't wanna eat either
    That's most common for people
    To do

There's people who love you
& there's people who hate you
But always keep in mind that
There's someone who loves you
     Me,,,,
Ignore haters
Be you

krissie
delicately, I want to tattoo
constellations across your skin
if only for the thought that
if I can't stay with you
then at the very least
my lazy sunday morning,
scrawled out make-believe,
scattered, multihued and
hypocritical ink will.

and whenever you're lost
you can follow the stars
and come back to me.

if it ever crosses your mind...

Raphael Uzor
When I did a good thing
They said it wasn't right
And when I did the right thing
They said it wasn't good.

Sometimes I'm stuck between deciding
What's good and what's right
'Cos sometimes good can be wrong
And right can be not-so-good.

Sometimes it's hard to decide between what's good and what's right.

Today, the sky's blue
Though my stomach is queasy
And my heart throbs.

Doubt is the most poisonous of all seeds
It has the power to destroy everything you have ever known
And I am in the midst of it

God, please help me
Lead me to the doors of your salvation--
Up the steps of your mercy,
Into the Abode of your love,
That I might abide there within it

Call me by the name of your Child
and let that title never be revoked
Never again
If it ever was, or ever has been

Let me live securely in you forever
All the days of my life
Forever, then forever more

Wrapped by your presence,
Held by your grace,
And standing on the truth of your Word,
The Lamb,
Jesus, and in his Name Alone,
Yours, God,
I pray Amen, Amen, and Amen

All power, and glory,
and honor, and praise,
Forever and ever,
Then forever more
To my Savior, my King, and my God

Normally I go in order of date written, but this little bonus poem is one I posted on the day I wrote it. The usual chronological order picks up again right after this one.
