Fat
Yes, this word is worse than
*****,
Stupid,
Vapid.

Fat means
Unacceptable.
Outcast.
Ugly.

And I might have
‘Great legs’
And I might be
‘Thin’

But that doesn’t mean
The fear is not there.
It is forced upon us
By everyone

Until we are called
Insecure
And the cuts on my arms
Only make that worse

But we are also called
Vain
For only trying to love
What we are.
My heart, it dances to this music in which is provided by a music box
Peaceful as it is, in my brain it causes locks
Locks on my emotions in which one cannot undo.
Losing all my senses, all because I felt blinded by you.
You claim to love me, but wrap me in this one big lie
That you will never let me go unless one of us has died
And in that case you try to kiss me, cigarettes on your breath.
Every time our lips touch, it is like kissing death.
So here I stay beneath your arm for if I try to pull away
You grab at my waist and force me to stay.
I have grown used to this treatment, and found a way to cope.
A music box with me to play a peaceful song, to make my thoughts envelope
Me like a blanket that provides me protection, locking up my thoughts
And I go back to this music box every time we have fought.
I cannot stand you, but somehow I still do.
And anytime I say something you pretend you have no clue.
So Cantarella rock me to sleep one more time.
And help me wash away his sins and help me forget this man's crime.
Without pain there is no happiness or feeling at all.
Silver is the backup in case gold fails to shine.
I watched a friend pass away due to her own sin
She knew where she was to be placed and she knew where she shouldn't have been
But her want for more drove her mad, causing her to go insane
And under that fence she went, breaking away from her chain
Into the cage she went, killing all the children inside
Once she gorged herself full of their flesh, I knew there was nowhere to hide.
I rushed in to save the day, all but just a moment too late
And not only did these poor babies die, but her attack sealed her own fate
I had chased her out, on my knees did I stay.
Blinded by my own tears in which I couldn't wipe away.
What had I done? How could this be?
How did she slip away from me?
Why did she feast upon their heads?
What could draw a creature to make sure babies were dead?
So as I pondered with tears in my eyes.
A shriek split the air and to no surprise.
I got to my feet and rushed to her form.
Which now seemed panicked and quite deformed.
Convulsing on the floor, choking to death
Trying to draw in somewhat of breath
The bones of those babies stuck in her throat.
As I picked up her fragile frame and caressed her back.
Crying harder as she suffered this attack.
For I could not remove it, that bone was too deep.
And her throat welled with blood that began to seep
Into my hands staining them red
It was about another hour before she was dead.
And here is the truth behind gluttony.
Overindulgence eventually gets the best of any
Who are brave enough to feast like a god.
My day yesterday put into a lesson.

Ann
You tried to **** my dreams
But, no,
They cannot die
Everyone knows by now, fairytales are not found.
The beliefs of our ancestors buried with them in the ground.
Now to be walked on, forgotten by most.
Drones in a world where leaders are hosts.
Honored to have the things that we do.
Misjudged when we think that we shouldn’t have to fight too.
For why waste the lives of thousands for a mere thirty men?
Why do we bow down to governments that say they let us win?
We have the freedom we have the power.
We the people stands no longer in the Nation’s darkest hour
We become slaves out of fear to those who claim to protect us as one
But once you as a group, scare a nation, it’s done.
We gave them our rights when we voted them in.
And now all have fear that as a nation, we will not win.
We the People are not safe in our homes. For our faults of fear in our government rules us all.
Too afraid to fight the system, too afraid to fall.
