you
There you are
I see you
everywhere
You and your ever present smile

And as I approach you
My heart shatters
Because I wake up

And you
Are no longer there
see
When I'm alone
I like to sit and observe
I look around

But how come
All I ever see
Is you
the numbness spreads
throughout her body
throughout her thoughts

but why can't she stop
feeling the ache
of her shattered heart
just a shotgun poem, wrote this without really thinking of it, hope you guys like my nonchalant poem writing :)

Skipping
Like the thoughts in my brain
And the flat line sounds like my heart

Him drowning in drink
Her trying again
Them relapsing
Going back
Coming back
Most of all, them leaving me
I need and love all of you so much
You hold grudges,
as if you've
never wronged anyone
yourself

You bear grudges,
as if you
don't know how
much it hurts
to have one
against yourself

Remember what you've done
Remember how it feels

People are like caterpillars.
We all start out the same but we all change.
one day i was shopping
in the rite-aid and as i
approached the checkout counter
and smiled at the cashier
our eyes met

at that exact moment
the earth stopped to turn on its axis
when That occurs
(since the earth spins so fast)
things fall off shelves and whatnot
in other words
a whole lotta shakin' goes on

then the earth starts to make a creaking sound
as though it may be in need of oil
that is when i started to jump
up in the air
because i know that
if you jump high enough
when the earth flips
you can land on the other side
of the planet
for me that would be
like going to china
for free

it doesn't work when
you are inside of a building
and the furthest i have ever gone
was about a half a block

anyway the cashier sees me
jumping up into the air
and yells at me
"stop jumping up and down
you're making the stuff fall off the shelves
who do you think is going to have to
clean up this mess?"

then the earth flipped and
things went back to normal

I stopped jumping and
our eyes remet each others
i could've sworn at that moment
that i had fallen down the grand canyon
the cashier (rachel) was wearing a baseball cap
over her beautiful brown hair
and to this day i swear that i cannot
get the image of her out of my head
her hazel eyes of love
brought tears to mine
i appologised
found the items i needed
and checked out

as i walked home
with my mind on rachel
i became manic and
that carol king song crept
up in my head and
i began singing
"i feel the earth move under my feet
i feel the sky a tumble-lin' down
i feel my heart start to tremble-in'
whenever you're around..."

i sang it every day
for about a month
before i got the courage
to ask her out

as it turns out
she wasn't the marrying kind
just some cheap ****

i'll never jump that high again
I'm still a teen
I cry and scream
I'm seventeen
at fifty-three

The anger pains
they still remain
rain fills my brain
hurts like a train

I jump the tracks
It breaks my back
to still be here
in hackensack

Can someone say
it goes away
or that it stays
forever, eh?

My mind it seems
has cheated me
makes me believe
I'm seventeen

So where is she
the one I knew
the one I thought
would be so true

I'm seveteen
I cry and scream
I'm still a teen
at fifty-three
My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over the sea
My bonnie tells lies all of the time
She lies, she lies, she lies
She tells so many lies
She has a job as a librarian
