The black pain faded away to a dull thrumming grey.
No worth,
Nothing left to say.
Little girl, once called beautiful,
Uses more nefarious words to describe herself,
Still holding on to that image of the
Silvery moon.
Tears slip silently down as she finds escape in
Physical pain.
She can no longer continue this way.
Holding out,
Holding on for just one more day,
Gripping her reality with shaky hands that could no longer
Strangle her demons.
Reaching out to anyone,
But trusting too fast.
Left in the dust too often by those she thought cared.
Any promise broken,
Like a heart,
Crushes her--crumbles her.
Her eyes are becoming empty as she accepts the numb,
Penetrating to her very soul.
Help…
She cries in vain.
No one listens, no one waits. No one cares.
Worlds of empty emotion and pretending.
Secrets-- her secrets
Eat her from the inside,
Rubbing her raw,
She yields to her abandoned state.
Colorless she is,
Faceless and invisible.
Only wanting to end it all--

Her fight is not to.

Drown out my own thoughts
With music and pain--
I can't stand myself.
Being the monster inside of my head
Has changed my perspective.

Never was I kind, good, beautiful.
Selfish-- yes.
How could I expect to be anything else?
Ugly to the core,
Scared of what others thought of me.
I needn't to...
They never thought of me.

I was only a pretty face to talk to
When everyone else was missing.
Never belonging anywhere,
Absorbed by the background,
Hiding from my memories,
The happy ones that could take me from this misery,
But those things happened too long ago to

Help.

I need you,
My mind is screaming,
The monster is winning,
I am becoming nothing but
Dust.

When ever you say,
I have justified all of my features,
Don't believe a word I say,
When I say,
You look spectacular without any
Makeup sitting on the bleachers,
I'll never hurt
A single bone in your ****** structure,
For what it's worth,
I want you extra normal,
You are impossible,
Extraterrestrial,
And astronomical,
And your gay best friend,
Well he seems nice , don't let him get too close,
This is not the end,
See you tomorrow with all your high hopes,
The smile is a curse,
Taking my soul , I see the shame in you,
And for what I yearn,
I want you extra normal,
You are impossible,
Extraterrestrial,
And astronomical.

third-eyed horses,
noble steeds,
told god,
I'll give the seed,
the seed to salvation or revolution,
no resolution to losing,
all that you've work for
to get where you otta be,
with three eyes,
who knows what you can succeed,

/

I wasn't even sure enough
That you would stay,
The lovin shall prosper,
I keep replacing jigsaws cause I
Can't find the right piece,
I wanna find peace,
In you,
but not on the streets.

Aquinas
I can't hear his voice without my forehead burning up in a fiery cold sweat of both lust and fear at the same time.
His existence is something I can never be a part of anymore yet my body is so used to the acquaintance of his being that I can't hold myself back from trying to be in his life.
I shouldn't exist in his existence: it feels like bad religion, a sin I can never forgive myself for, but the euphoria I experience when I commit this sin is a stunning sort of infatuation, I never want to leave his side, though I don't believe I was ever there.
He used to care,
he used to notice,
he used to be able to tell when my feelings were bare.
Now I am here,
two seats away from him.
I try to joke, to communicate, and he smiles lightly, but
the glow from his eyes is not as bright for me, anymore, as it is for everyone else.
I ****** up.

"Spark The Night"


Looking at the mirror with a blank
expression,
I am not made on this earth to get
people's good intentions,
I am not perfect,
school was filled harnessing ignorance,
life was filled bliss and mistakes,
mistakes that made me look like a sad
individual,
now I'm subliminal
towards the disobedience in the people
I despise the most,
like chopped *** roast,
my life is in segregated sections,
taking rests to spark a light,
to spark the night and all its glory.

"Four Corners"


Christmas lights all on her wall,
trouble teens don't get enough,
easy enough she would fall for
the wrong type of guy that was
tough,
scrapbook full of pictures and
memories,
loving herself each time she glared,
Just a bunch of roses and peonies,
from the thoughts and the life that
they shared,
last of us theme song on her mp3,
thinking about the dysfunction in
her family,
Sad songs match considering the
theme,
These four corners come frequently.

"Good Enough"

By Arcassin Burnham


Thought if I was ever good enough,
God wouldn't hand out favors anymore,
I wouldn't keep leaning again the front door,
Thinking what I could have done differently,
Thought if I was ever good enough,
I would have all sorts of friends,
That would be with me til the end of any
Situation,
And in old age sincerely,
Thought if I was ever good enough,
I would keep just one girl in my heart,
And not have all these exes to start,
So that my love will always be,
Thought if I was ever good enough,
I would not have all these enemies at my head,
I wanna rewrite history when I'm dead,
But its too good enough for me.

"Romance In A Sock / Vinyl Record"

As smelly as it is,
I would love you from here to the mountains,
As crazy as it is,
I love you more than my shirts and my pants,
especially my socks.

/

Dance With me tonight,
I swear you'll have a time,
in a segregated line,
say you'll always be mine,
lay on you some perfect rhymes,
i got a watch to keep the time,
in this club full of broken shrines,
say you'll always be mine,
I could put you on a dime,
baby please just give the sign,
Can I take you for a ride,
right now its the perfect time,
get the worries out your mind,
theres so much only we could find,
in our hearts to pass the time,
say you'll always be mine,

say you'll always be mine,
I will love you til the end of time,
please baby just be mine,
the vinyl record play all the time,
say you'll always be mine,
I will love you til the end of time,
please baby just be mine,
the vinyl record play all the time.
**** it gravity

The taste in your mouth as you hold back tears
The secrets ringing in your ears
Body aching of pain
Mind aching of fear

~

First forced into silence
Forced into a game
Trained into shyness
Trained to feel shame

First he locked me out of his world
Our once shared consciousnesses became untwirled
Left me out of his mind
Finding a new life and leaving me behind

Second he locked me out of his presence
Refusing to touch me
Ignoring my essence
Declining to see me

Finally he locked me out of myself
My thoughts were confiscated
Creativity incarcerated in a small box on a high shelf
Breaking me until I was fully isolated

"Smothering me,
setting me free.

I was three steps from heaven.

A voice told me to drown
in feathers and darkness,
let myself down, down, down...
six feet in
I was swept into the space I kept my demons.
I was conflicted. I was embraced.
I was home."

That's all I had too.
Shouting in my head across the kitchen table,
and everyone understands in their own way;
We just need to talk and be heard.
I need to speak and be affirmed.

I just wanted to say something to let you know
I'm still here.
I'm still alive.
I'm still human.
I don't have a degree on love, but i think you are in need of some.
Undergraduate or straight down the pyramid
You should no where to find me
No matter the position in my life
My humanity should overshadow status
If you're down for something tangible in emotion, you know where i am.
I don't play games, i leave those at Home and the field
I usually function alone but i definitely won't mind the dual wield
Combining into one consistent thought
Loosening the knots
That were placed there before
It's a challenge, but who knows what we can accomplish.

I don't know who you take me for,
but I'm not a saint,
And as the chills run down my spine,
sincerely over think,
there are no happy endings to thoughts
I thought about,
the holy ghost demands to know,
what I can show,
lays its hand upon my head and reads my
brain like laid out notes,
of broken tables and wine glasses,
shattered fragments of what's to come,
set a cup of punishment with battery acid,
not knowing what he has done,
old pictures that I should burn,
planting mines in my head
but its already confirmed empty,
being as sly as a fox,
and as strong as a bull,
And While ******* comes lurking,
Theres no other ways to be cruel
instead of being a fool,
I'm not worth it, but kisses for another will
make it better.
