Your hair shines like the sun
Your pale face
Is the most beautiful thing
I have ever seen

Your hands so sure
As you hold me
Your fangs so sharp
As they pierce me

You drink until you
Have had your fill
I sway
It felt so good

You smell so sweet
You have told me
The same thing
I am getting sleepy

When you drain
My blood
My energy
Goes also

We will be together
As long as I live
Me, your human
And you, my vampire

You cut your wrist
And guide me to it
I will regain my strength
Soon enough

I am yours
And you are mine
Me, your human
And you, my vampire


I want more
Than my lifetime
I want forever
Resting in your arms

Will I turn?
What will you do?
If I become
One of you?

Will you feel guilty?
I hope not
This is what I want
Turn me

Turn me
And we will
No longer be
Human and vampire
I just want you to know that if vampires existed I would not want to be turned into one. This is only a character

I look around
To see you
And you look the way
You always do

I walk up to you
You see me
And your smile
Disappears

Clouds begin
To rain on me
Your eyes like lightning
Your voice like thunder

You tell me
Its over
You have met
Someone new

How could you
Do this to me
I gave you the best years
Of my life

I was just
A shiny new toy
And now
You don’t want me

Now I am drowning
In my own tears
They always told me
But I didn’t believe

I turn to Grace
She doesn’t gloat
I cry and cry
But she says “Don’t”

She told me
You weren’t worth
One of my tears
Not one shed


The clouds part
And the sun shines
The flowers bloom
And I am fine

I sat at the peer
Overlooking the water
My head was in my hands
My hair hiding my face

I thought over the day
I thought of what happened
What happened
At the bay

You got on that boat
And you left me
I didn’t want you to go
Though I knew you had to

I felt a hand
On my shoulder
Startled I looked up
At the stranger

He looked worried
Truly worried
I shook my head
“He had to leave.” Was all I said

I saw it
In his eyes
He understood
And he sighed

I was hugged
By the stranger
I knew
He was no danger

Just a stranger
On the peer
But I knew that he also
Lost someone dear

I awake from my slumber
And I look out my window
I see snowflakes falling
Drifting to the glistening ground

The sun is so bright
That it hurts my eyes
I turn away and think
It’s so beautiful today

But how can it be?
Last night was so horrible
How can the day rejoice
When my heart is broken?

It felt like a storm was raging
But to everyone else in the world
The night was peaceful
Though for me it stormed

I saw another side of him last night
The side no one wants to see
I want to overlook it
But my heart hurts too badly

I ended it last night
I couldn’t take the other side
I learned of the real boy
That I thought was so kind

I thought he was perfect
But of course I should have known
No one can be perfect
So now I feel alone

But I am not alone
I am never alone
There will always be someone
And today that is Grace

Grace will help me
I know she will
I sigh and I lean
Against the window sill

Though I may slow
It’s not as if everyone dies
The world doesn’t know
It passes on by

He yelled at me again
He hit me again
He made me cry again
So I go to my creek

I sit on the green grass
And put my feet in the cool water
The wind blows my hair back
And I begin to sing

I sing softly
I sing quietly
But it doesn’t keep
You from hearing

You seem to
Always know
When I need you
To come and comfort me

You kneel down
Right beside me
You put a hand
On my shoulder

I look into your eyes
And you see my tears
You pull me into a hug
And that’s all I need

Of course you know
That it happened again
You ask me where
And I raise arm

You push my sleeve
Up my arm
You kiss the bruise
That was beginning to show

Looking at the bruise
Brings more tears to my eyes
It makes me tremble
It makes me remember


I try to stand
You have to help
I still shake and you
Pick me up into your arms

I laugh as you
Spin me and spin me
You twirl me around
You stop and bend to kiss me

You set me upright
On my feet
You take my hand
And I lean against you

You hug my waist
You kiss my hair
A smile, my smile
Replaces the tears

We walk back
To my creek
Our creek
Our place

We get into
Our creek
We splash each other
In our creek

We laugh
In our creek
Troubles disappear
In our creek

to be here in this room
is not what i want
a discourager is here
my soul is unhappy
being me is not easy
here in this room
right now i long for a mountain
so i can be with You
evil will leave me
Lord when im with You
I was in a teacher's room and as you can tell i didnt want to be there

I sit there in my basment
And i wonder what i thought
How could i not know?
How could i not see it?
I stare at his picture
I look into his eyes
He was so good at lying
It was always kept from me
My mother didnt tell me
The terrible things he did
He told me "Your my favorite"
And i believed him
He was my daddy
My daddy didnt lie

I walk upstairs
And i curl up in the corner
I lay my bible in from of me
And I begin to read
I read and i cry
Because now i am not blind
I see through his lies
I hear my mother speak
About the things that he did
I know it is truth
I know of his abuse

I climb up to the second floor
Im holding my baby girl
I see my husband in front of me
Kissing my 5 yr old daughter goodnight
I smile at him and he smiles back
I lay my baby in her crib
She is finally asleep
I take my husband's hand
And we watch our daughters sleep
This is a facade. For those of you who dont know what a facade is, it is a poem of three stanzas, each pertaining to your life. First stanza is your past, the basement. Second stanza is your present, the first floor. And the last stanza is what you want your future to be, your second floor. I chose the title "Better" because i hope to be a better parent than my father.
