What do you do
when you meet somebody
who has lightning in their eyes
and fire on their lips
waiting to burn
it
all
down?

What do you do
when you can't stop thinking about somebody
whose heart is filled
with the idea
that your existence
is
wrong?

What do you do
when you feel stupid
because maybe if you were born
in another time
or another place
you wouldn't be having
these
problems?

What do you do
when you're nervous to be you
in your own home
or around those you hold dear
because what if
they're disappointed
in
you?

What do you do
when the person
you want to please most
admits things
that break
your
heart?

What do you do
when you can't stop dreaming
and your heart can't stop longing
and your head can't stop spinning
and all you want
is just
peace
and
quiet

from all the tragedy in the world

all of the noise in your head

all of the fear and worry

and you just want

to rest?
Monica's poetry Oct 2015
And you know what I need from you when I get home
You better not be on the phone
Talking up a storm like you usually do
Talking up your friends like you usually do
Telling them I never spend time with you
It's hard to find a time we been

Monica's poetry Jun 2015
I think it's time for me to reveal my true self and to be myself. Around everyone.  I don't care about the things people say about me I WILL BE ME AND NO ONE CAN STOP IT.
Always be yourself, you are who you are for a reason

I remember how you
used to feel on my skin,
I replaced your hands
with razor blades,
their delicate touch
cut me deep,
along with your destructive words.

You are a firework,
Big, colorful, beauty, bright.

The only problem with fireworks,
Is that they always fade to soon.

don't fade away, please
