Jade - Hello Poetry

I'm happy you call me
And then you start a fight
*******, and whining, and insulting
I'm angered
It's 3 AM
Yelling in my house
Your bipolar mood swings
Make me want to shoot you in the face
"I love you"
"*******"
"If you were smart you wouldn't be with me"
Shut up
**SHUT THE **** UP

Reality Check

I wish I was the one holding all the cards
     Wish I could make him feel this way
               Queasy
                       Uneasy
                                Wanna know what happens next.
It's not fair he has this effect
     Able to reflect
               Any feelings I send his way
His signals are mixed
      He's fixed
               into this idea that nothing is ever real
I know he's wrong
         His feelings are strong
               "Monogamy isn't possible
The sad truth of life
         husband and wife
                  is a myth."

Home, Where I Don't Belong

Home, sweet home they say,
but not me.
What's so sweet about home?
A curfew?
A naggy parent?
An annoying sibling?
Chores?
No thanks.
If I were Dorothy,
my heels would click me to the Bahamas.
Or PCB.

All My Love by Matt Fox

"I wish that I was blind so I could hear your voice clearer
I wish that I was deaf so I could feel your hair in my hands
And I wish that I was mute so that I could sign my words to you
on the deepest of my dreams.
And all my love
I sing for you
And all my love
I sing for you.

I wish this crowd was softer so that I could whisper
I wish the lights were brighter so I could see your eyes shimmer
I wish this room was empty so that I could hold you
The way I do right around midnight
All my love
I sing for you
And all my love
I sing for you

I wish my heart would stop so I could only hear yours
The rhythm would be just like the waves upon the sea shore
But for now, still must not be, stand by your side
And let the moon slowly turn the seas
All my love
I sing for you
And all my love
I sing for you.
All my love
I sing for you
And all my love
I sing for you."

I didn't write this, it's a beautiful song by Matt Fox but it's not very well known. I love the lyrics, it's a powerful love song and it's really catchy. If you like it, check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtrfsaAHEho
Also, the one line "But for now, still must not be, stand by your side..." I'm not exactly sure if those are the words. But I think it's close.

In my head
there
is
Chaos.
In my heart
there
is
Ice.
In my body
there
is
a Numbness.
In my bloodstream
there
are
Chemicals.
Anything to take me away
away from
Reality.
Away from the death
destruction
deforestation
dehumanization
degeneration
degradation
of this sick society.

The Morning

In the first seconds of morning,
My eyes flutter open to connect with yours.
My smile mirrored on your face.
My body comfortable in the cocoon of your arms.
Everything that happened last night is forgotten,
Forgiven,
Healed.
In the next couple of seconds,
Everything comes back
But you're smiling at me
And I am torn.
Not sure whether
to slap you
or
to kiss you.
Either one means feelings
Either one means that I care
I won't give you that satisfaction
So instead I'll open up
Let you in
Let you please me
Meaninglessly.

Finals Week

Hair pulling.
Teeth grinding.
Paper throwing.
Pencil breaking.
Heavy stressing.
Ugly crying.
Overly frustrating
Finals.
Man, **** this studying ****.
I'd rather have a beer.
Or 10.
