Young love,
                 Eternal regret.
     Young life,
            Eternal misstep.
                               White rabbits,
                    Black dresses,
       Small girls,
Big messes.
                      Beautiful moments,
               Terrible dreams,
                    Silent affection,
            Earsplitting screams.
                                   Hearts come,
                    Pages go,
Win some,
      Others no.
                Monster monster,
              Must be slain,
                   Soon soon,
                        Before meeting again.
               White rabbits,
      Black dresses,
 Small girls,
           Big messes.

it's your eighteenth birthday
and I just want to say
welcome to adulthood
I hope you like pain

the darkest of your hours,

the one you dread the most

seems to have been haunted

by an unforgotten ghost

you wish you could forget

what has been said and done,

but sweetheart your darkest hour

has only just begun,

I warned you that the road ahead

would break your dainty soul

but you just went on ahead

and now you’re all alone,

when your darkest hour

seems to be undone,

remember that the darkest hour

is but sixty minutes long.

rip my heart out
go ahead
break my bones now
there's nothing left
i can't feel your pain
just regret
you hurt me before
i won't forget
you wanted me once
remember that
you loved me once
what about that
where did you go
you left
now my heart is shattered
into pieces of regret
simon Feb 2015
shattered hands,
          and bleeding glass
                      darkened skin,
                 an unfixable mess

                   useless thoughts,
           your misguided words
                                 breaking mentality
                          until it hurts

        dampened clothes
                               a shattered mind
                    bloodstained red
what once was white,

                                                     no it isn’t
                                   it’s not your fault
                  yes, it hurts,
you’ve been through hell.

how does
everyone go on
loss kills
pain moves us along

might i ask
even if it harms

is there a way

come to my arms
are you there
needing of help
tell me you're there

don't leave me in hell
once there was one

terrified to be alone
help me now
i don't like it alone
something's wrong

one tiny thing
now i can't think

my ears, they ring
you laugh

over my mistakes
will you help me
not in my place
simon Feb 2015
human hands
pulling
me down
underwater
until
i drown
cloudy
murky, *dangerous

blue
can't breathe
not
a clue
darkness
crashing
almost gone
what
ever
went
wrong
death
in the deep
blue
something keeps me
*from you

2,527 miles
13,342,560 feet
160,110,720 inches
to your heartbeat

different state
different city
different coast
miss you, miss me

today here
yesterday there
it’s hard to talk
but I don’t care

you make me happy
that’s all that counts
I think I quite like
having you around
simon Mar 2015
New
    Strange
        Feelings that last
               Old
                    Rearranged
                         One at last
                           First
                      Love
                All the same
            Beautiful
       Feelings
Still remain

it is this purgatory state
that drove me to the edge     
i do not know how others do it         
i'm lost within my head             
wrongs are swirling all around me                 
rights have fell away                     
what's my final resting place,                        
i will have no say                         
you can plea and cry and beg                            
your wrongs are prominent                            
lies won't get lost in his eyes                            
lucky that you're dead                          
it is this purgatory state                        
that made you go insane                   
you apologize for all your wrongs           
but the answer is the same
simon May 2016
i don't want you
but i'm thinking
that i just don't
want you to be
with anybody
other than me

but it's not true
you're leaving
and i really don't
want you to see
me as anything
other than free

the sky isn't blue
and i'm breaking
but i really don't
need sympathy
from somebody
who never loved me
simon Feb 2015
terrified, lost,
that's what they said to me,
not worth the cost,
that's what they thought of me,
painfully alone,
or so i had thought i’d be,
broken, on my own,
or so it had seemed i’d be,

behind closed doors,
that's where they kept him,
in other words,
tore, broke and bruised him,
or at least,
that is what he told me,
of the beasts,
that maimed, prodded, shattered me,

together stronger,
that’s what we could be,
unbroken longer,
not broken as all hell could be,
finally unalone,
that is how it felt with him,
finally at home,
i know that i love him.
the capitalization is an artistic choice that i have made, capital letters did not suit the poem.

i was born incorrectly
not that i had any difficulty breathing
or any heart disease or ****** malfunctions

it's just that i was born into
the very incorrect body

i'm not mad at anyone
not my mom or my dad or my siblings
or the doctors that label me as a girl

it's just that i was born into
the very incorrect body

i understand that it's not normal
it's significantly out of the norm, in fact
and the amount of unusual looks is very difficult to deal with

it's just that i was born into
the very incorrect body

i know that i am a boy
and nothing will ever make me feel any different
not even my mother's constant probing and prodding

because i was born with
the very correct soul

flames               go up
world               comes
down           shattered
glass             panicked
sound                 try to
leave                 maybe
escape                 try to
hurt and             try to
break                   what
happened      one day
life was                easy
wanted             to stay
it's not            easy it's
too hard             try to
heal                    *don't
crash                   a car

every time we touch
it hurts
every time *
you lie

it stings
every time i leave
it kills
every time we try
it aches
every time we love
it breaks
every time i push
it shatters
every time you shove
it darkens
every time we try
it *breaks

in the absence of the sun I sit
taking note of all the *******
the dark doesn’t terrify me one bit
in the absence of the sun I sit

in the darkness of the night I cry
adding up all of my wasted time
hoping somebody was on the other side
but in the darkness of the night, I cry

in the shadows of my skin I scream
wishing my entire life was a bad dream
but upon further investigation it seems
in the shadows of my skin I scream

your eyes are blue
aNd mine are brown

i look up
and you look dOwn

your hands are big
and mine are small

you sAy a word
and i will fall

you don't think
and i surely do

you long for Her
and i for you

— The End —
