share your words with me
          let's relax in this simplicity
     each word I read
                     it plants a seed
            inside my heart
                  inside my bones
                             I grow and grow until
                     similes fall
            I reach and reach until
                        metaphors breach
                                 my fingers are pens
                                     my heart is the source
      that brings forth all of my poetry
                     time for the second course

I wear an oxogen mask
to make myself breath
because a lot of times
I don't want to

when she's happy, she can't stop talking, but when she's sad, she doesn't say a word.

//I am a tsunami and you're calm as the sea,
yet some how your love has crashed into me.

In life we'll be forced to do things
          
              things that hurt us
  
        that tear us apart,
                
                                that make us feel empty.

We will be placed in an environment

          where we hate ourselves
  
      where we will be put down,

                                    harassed.

Life doesn't give us lemons
      
                        it gives us hateful words
  
           that we sculpt inside out head
  
                   and spit out onto people like
  
             dirt.

It's true when they say life isn't fair

                it takes us for a nice ride

then while we're sleeping in the backseat,
        
                          not paying attention

it goes over a road bump without warning us

                  and we're jolted out of place

         put out of our space  

               as our world comes crashing down

and you wonder why you were never warned.

Tell me how you can stand there and tease a kid

                                      for wearing glasses

                or liking superman

      or not exactly 'fitting in' with a certain

  group or clic.

In life we will be forced to do things

                like move over in the hallway

because the cool kids take up it's entirety

          or keep our mouth shut about bullies

    because the teachers call it 'child's play'

In life we will all scurry around

                           on hands and knees

          and no one will offer a hand

                   they would much rather tease.

I'm not exaggerating when I say

         this life isn't for me.
life *****, guess I gotta **** it up.

i'm not the girl that goes to parties looking for a hookup
i'm not the girl that drinks beer to savor the taste
i'm not the girl that everyone likes because of her beauty and makeup
i'm not the girl who goes home to the perfect family embrace
i'm not the girl who's smile can be seen from miles away
i'm not the girl who's body is meant for a model
i'm not the girl who dances gracefully, like in ballet

i am the girl who drinks till she sees the bottom of the bottle
i am the girl who empties her worries in an ashtray
i am the girl who leaves halfway through the party because i'm insecure
i am the girl who doesn't wear makeup or dress in pretty clothes
i am the girl who likes to have fun but people think i'm too mature
i am the girl who gets cut by the thorns of life but still loves the rose

every time you take her for granted,
you're just teaching her how to live
without you.
no matter how much she loves you, she will eventually get tired of being an option.
