It's like a landslide of small, sharp rocks

falling onto your chest

into the spaces between your ribs

damaging your heart

and whats left of your fading soul

I know a girl
Who sits behind a computer screen
Wondering if she's worth something

I know a girl
Who stares into space trying to think of reasons
Why people should care if she fades like the seasons

I know a girl
Who is broken more than she can comprehend
Who cuts and scars more when she tries to mend


I am a girl
Who could just cry -- I could just cry
When I see that maybe my words matter
Maybe there are people who like what I write
(Yes, the last stanza doesn't rhyme...
what do you want from me?)

Thank you all so much.
You know not what you mean to me.

A twilight breeze
through shaded mist
does find the earth at time of sleep
~
Beyond the hills
the sun has set
on glowing visions ever deep
~
So patiently
the moon it waits
its place along the eastern shore
~
To rise within
the sky this night
*and whisper that I love you more
I got a crush
              on a poet
          Wouldn't ya know it?
He's got everything
              I want
       Everything I need
When I read his
       poems
            My heart beats
     all crazy
There's been so
        many poems
          Written about
     not loving poets
Well sometimes,
        us poets...
         Just can't help it!
Although this is
     true
       It's really just
            a game
I got a crush
          on a poet
     Can you guess his
          name?

Comment with your guess, unless you already know, then that's cheating!  Lol
