There once was a girl
Who used to get beat
She would happily greet
Everyone she would meet
But when she got home
She would cry and feel alone
It was her only way to cope
Besides smoking dope
Life was a lie
So she continued to cry
Until one night
She gave up her fight
She stopped her lies
And said her goodbyes
She laid down
Only to never get back up

Mom, Don't Worry
My Image Will Forever
Be Alive In Your Mind.

The emptiness that I feel inside
Doesn't have words that I can describe
The loneliness I feel throughout
It was her fault without a doubt
She's still alive but to me she's dead
Of everything that we've ever said
I can't stand to live with her
All the time we fight
Because I don't forget anything
Nothing's alright
My Dad says she cares
He says that she's stable
When I was cutting myself
She only cared about the table
I don't know how I'll feel today or tomorrow
'Cause every other day is a day I feel sorrow
Some kids are lucky
Not having to deal with this bomb
Because this poems about you, so called--Mom.
I pray to God that karma is real
and that you feel

Every single thing you've done to me.
Ten fold.


*Amen

I crawled into a new life
When maybe I should have jumped
Slowly lowering myself
Into the icy depths
When I should have taken a dive
So now here I am
Frostbitten and cold
I did this to myself

You walked by and never saved me
Because I wasn't drowning
You saw me standing in the icy water
And just assumed that I was fine
But if I had just jumped
If I had only taken that dive,
Then maybe you would have seen me drowning
Maybe you would have tried to save me.

Staged inside of his bedroom
Smoking my last cigarette
Ashes fall on the carpet
Glitter glue and liquor stains
All over my clothes
I feel sick
As I lay watching the TV
Strange sounds begin to emerge
I hear myself speak
From outside of my body
I listen to myself
The voice of a stranger
Rings out of my mouth
My past isn't there
I'm not here
We are nowhere
But I see you laying next to me
Your eyes look aware but it isn't the truth

These time capsules
Filled to the brim with colored memories
Each one addressed to a day
Taken at meals or in-between them
I am starting to dissolve
They are too
Seeping into my bloodstream
These little capsules of dreams
Break them open
Breath them in
Maybe I will see the ocean
when the bottle is empty
a newborn wants to be a hand.  

there’s the dream I have of heaven
and the dream
god lets me
bring.  

my boy
has a crow
for a backpack.
