Not a poem
SS Apr 2014
It burns in the back of your mind
And feels like you swallowed
A bag of stones
And now they're weighing down
On your insides.

Th meditation doesn't help,
Neither does the medication
The music feels empty
And the days seem darker.

Today seems bleak,
Tomorrow seems even bleaker.

Monsters
SS Mar 2014
Who said
We
Have to
be
Monsters?
We are
Born
Angels
But
The cruelty and
Evil which
We must endure
Turn us
Into
bloodsucking
Revenge seeking
Death driven
Horror stricken
Violent
Unhappy

How To Die
SS Jan 2014
I jaywalk,
Hoping a car will hit me.

I take one extra painkiller,
Hoping to overdose.

I shave my legs a little too hard,
Hoping to get cut.

I sit in the front seat,
Hoping to be the victim of a car crash.

I wish for city riots,
Hoping to get shot.

I try getting sick,
Hoping to end up in the hospital.

I use electrical appliances with wet hands,
Hoping to get electrocuted.

I pray for an earthquake,
Hoping to get caught under the rubble.

I want to get dumped,
Hoping to die of heartbreak.

I hope for all of this,
So when I say it was an accident,
I won't be lying.

Youth
SS Jan 2014
And if you're in love then you're the lucky one,
Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them;
But I'm forever missing him...
I think this song is sheer artistic brilliance and needs to be acknowledged as such.

And He Said
SS Jan 2014
I love her*
I love the way she makes me feel like my life is a slow motion movie.
Whenever I'm with her I feel like there should be a theme song in the background.
I love the way her smile makes me feel like everything is almost okay.
I love her.
I love the way her messy hair makes me feel like a child.
I love how she always knows the wrong thing to say.
I love her imperfections. I love every flaw she hates.
I know the way she talks, walks; I know the rhythm of the breaths she takes.
She makes me feel whole.
She takes out every impurity from my life and makes me a better person.
She might not know I love her,
Or she might just not care.
But her existence has given me something to live for,
She's larger than life.
She doesn't understand me.
She's a mess.
She's a beautiful person,
And I just want to save her.

Untitled
SS Jan 2014
They started off in love,
But if it seems too good to be true,
It probably is
.

                     They continued fighting,
                     They said they only fought because they were in love,
                     Everyone knew they were breaking apart.

         They went on to falling out of love,
         They blamed each other,
         But they both were hurting.

    His heart was broken into pieces,
               Her heart was simply broken.

Life in Six Lines
SS Jan 2014
It's always all or nothing,
Either life is good,
Or life is bad.

You can never be happy and sad.
What about when you're sad and
You need to be happy?

I hope 2k14
SS Jan 2014
I hope this year you're happy,
I hope it's better than the last.

I hope this year you find love,
I hope it doesn't hurt you like it did in the past.

I hope you find what it is you're looking for,
I hope you don't lose yourself on the way.

I hope you are able to smile,
I hope you cherish each and every day.

I hope you are able to trust people,
I hope they give you a reason to trust them.

I hope you understand you're beautiful,
I hope you know you're one a kind, a precious gem.

I hope this year a single tear doesn't fall from your eyes,
I hope you can stay strong through the pain.

I hope this year nobody hurts you,
And I hope this year you have nothing to lose, only everything to gain.

Oath To Him
SS Jan 2014
He tells me I'm indecisive,
Can never make up my mind,
He just wants us to be united,
He says I'm one of a kind.

He tells me I'm mean,
But he can never let me go,
He treats me like I'm a queen,
Loves me even when I put on a show.

He tells me I'm a beauty,
Loves that I don't try too hard,
He hugs me and kisses me and calls me his cutie,
He loves my soul, even though it is charred.

I don't know what I would do without him,
But I keep pushing him away,
I know there will come a day,
Years from now perhaps, when alone in bed we'll lay.

After The Stars Come Out
SS Dec 2013
Cars tinted and cold,
Boys who are way too old
Expensive smokes and a kiss
This never ends, i wish.

You know I do it for the thrill
The speed and danger,
Strangers breaking through my hearts grill.

Don't even know his name,
But I'm glad I came.
Making memories I won't remember in the morn,
Waking up cold, regretful and forlorn.
I know I'll cry about this later,
But I'm laughing now.

Loss & Grief
SS Dec 2013
Always in the room across from me
I never thought this is the way it would be
You lying there so peacefully
Me wishing I could see you quickly.

Always in the room across from me
You were a brother to me
We fought and laughed and played and cared
Never a dull moment with you there.

But now I see the empty room
Where have you gone, leaving us with this emotional doom
So many people think of you
Praying everyday for you.

Every night before I sleep
I think of all the memories I keep
Saved deep in my heart
You truly were a work of art.

Nobody realizes how important someone's presence is
Till the physical body is nothing but nostalgic bliss
You will always be
In the room across from me.
SS Dec 2013
If I showed you my body bare
Through the shock, would you even care
That I stripped down layer by layer
Just to show you my innermost scares.

First is the very top layer
The girl with the messy dyed brown hair
The smiles and the laughter
Hiding all the pain that comes out after.

Second is the life of the party
Loud laughs, happy and hearty
Nothing to worry her pretty little mind
An empty, intoxicated mind.

Third is the loving pet-o-phile
That wants to travel from Paris to the Nile
Passionate shopper, day dreamer
But when she's angry, never meaner.

Fourth is the girl not many know
Called horrible things like a ***** and ***
She does not care about what they say
Waits all year for the two months after May.

Fifth is the bottle of open pills
And all she wants to do to herself is ****
The trust in life no longer there
The girl with the messy dyed brown hair.

— The End —
