Thank You for Nothing
Megan McCormick Mar 2013
You ruined Easter for me,
So thank you very much.
You ruined April 8th for me,
So thank you again for that.
You ruined romantic kisses in the rain for me,
So once again, thank you.
Let's just save some time and say
You've ruined a lot for me, nearly everything,
So a million times thank you
For experiences I will never get back
And for things I will never stop hating.

Novels
Megan McCormick May 2013
As words fly from my pen
And creatures are created,
A novel beckons to be written.
But as I set it down,
Hidden deep in the forest of the Shelf,
It begs to be finished.

To My Brother:
Megan McCormick Apr 2013
Dearest brother,
I wish I could take away your pain.
I wish I could shelter you,
Keep you away from harm.
I wish I could change the world,
Change it so it deserved someone like you.
I wish I could make you see
That you don't have to do this alone,
We can weather this storm together,
You and me,
Through the years,
Like it's always been meant to be.
I only wish that you would talk to me.
You've always been there for me,
But I don't think you know that
I've always been here for you.
Do you know it kills me
To see you in pain?
I want you to know that
I love you and
You mean the world to me and
I would do anything in the world for you.
Megan McCormick Jul 2013
That moment when...

.... You see his smile.

.... You see his eyes sparkle.

.... You look into his eyes and feel safe.

.... He pulls you into his arms and squeezes.

.... You get to feel the press of his lips against yours.

.... You feel him worm his way past your defenses.

.... You let down your guard.

.... You let yourself fall...

.... He catches you and doesn't let you go.

That's THE moment.
Go get that moment.

Beginning of a Song?
Megan McCormick May 2013
Here's to another love song
This one about you and me,
Even though I'm fairly certain
You still can't see.
I could tell you
"Baby you and I are meant to be"
But I don't know that
So you'll just have to trust me.
The beginning of a song? Maybe... If I can ever come up with the rest of the lyrics.

because it still hurts to see your name
and I know I shouldn't feel this way
but you were all I wanted in life
and you ruined it

Even Still
Megan McCormick Jul 2013
It's amazing how after all this time
You still make my heart race
And my eyes fill with tears
And a lump form in my throat.

In the life of a bird
Megan McCormick May 2013
In the life of a bird
Mine eyes wring true
Oh faithful raven
Do come out of blue
In the life of a falcon
Blissful melody
Sing faith from above
And hate from beneath
In the life of a bird.

I Want Out
Megan McCormick Jun 2013
I want out of this house
I want out of this town
Why can't you just let me go?
I'm drowning,
I'm drowning,
Somebody save me,
Someone please take me away from here.
Just letting off steam.

Tree
Megan McCormick May 2013
If I close my eyes
And hold my breath,
I could be a tree.
Stand real still
Right here with me
And stay here for eternity.
Old poem spam time.

Him. Always Him.
Megan McCormick May 2013
The one who can make my heart race
And my heart hurt
At the same time.
The one who makes me nauseous
Who makes me happy
Who makes my head spin.
The one who makes me laugh.
He's the one who makes me want to cry
Who makes me wish I was with him.
Who my heart is telling me I love,
But I don't want to believe it.

Faced courage
And charged

"Home"
Megan McCormick Jun 2013
2 PM there's the bell
Just one more day gone by
Now back "home" where he waits,
Back "home" so you can cry
In the comfort of your room
Wait, he took that away too.
Go suppress your rage
Just like you always do.

Over it?
Megan McCormick Mar 2013
I haven't picked it up in awhile,
Honestly I haven't felt the need to.
But sometimes I can hear its soft metallic voice
Singing to me.
Sometimes I can still feel my blood calling
But now it's barely there.
So now I sit here hoping,
Wishing,
Praying that I really am truly done.

The Cycle
Megan McCormick Mar 2013
Here we go again
Like on a ferris wheel, always turning.
The cycle that I never realized I had,
But I knew I had the entire time.
Here we go again
Spinning on and on,
First happiness
Then depression
Then reach the lowest I can possibly get,
Talk to him,
Feel better.
Same as it's always been.

When Will I Learn?
Megan McCormick Apr 2013
Today, my friend, would be a prime example
As to why I should never get my hopes up.
I was supposed to see you today,
For the first time in a year,
And something in the universe decided
It hated me.
Hip hip hurray for hoping.
Megan McCormick Jun 2013
I don't believe,
I've lost it.
I don't want it back,
Stop pushing me.
Leave me alone,
Just let me go,
That's all I want from you.

My Friends
Megan McCormick May 2013
"What's mine is yours"
How accurate, it seems,
But there's one thing missing:
Once yours its no longer mine.

The life that came with you
Is far better than
The one I had
For years before.
Remember this one Tiff?

I should just stop.
This does me no good.
I don't know why I even try.
Just a little poem about my friends.

She just gets so sad
And her whole world falls apart,
But darling, there's nothing you can do
Because even the best have their worst days.

Why do I keep doing this?
Megan McCormick Mar 2013
I should probably just give up,
I'm fairly sure I've lost him,
But look, here he comes again,
Let's give this one more go.
