A ghost you once knew
Once you saw nothing but me
Now you look through me,
As if i was a ghost.
I now understand that some people are sent to teach us lessons

When sadness creeps in
The icy cold fingers of sadness
Creep in touching my heart.
Taking me to the point where i feel
Nothing but cold and numb.
I dont want to feel this most of the
Time i am writing to forget.

strength
Strength doesn't come from how
Many fights that you have had.
Strength comes from picking yourself up everytime you have fallen.

A million feelings
You make me feel everything
All at once.
I have been spending alot of time with someone he makes me feel everything all at once i am not sure if it is a good thing or not

Two different forevers

Forever is not the same
This was something that i had learn just recently that your forever isnt always the same as someone else idea of forever

Words
Words can twist minds lifes
Get lost and ruined.
And the world becomes more
Darker and twisted.

Call me a dreamer
I know that my head is full of dreams
And i get lost in my own world.
But there i am happy.
I can't spend all my days living in a black And white world.
Never smiling being serous all the
Time hiding who i am.
I love to get lost in dreams and be in a
World of own.
I love being a poet and if that makes
Me a dreamer then call me a
Dreamer.
I wish the pain would stop hurting feeling more and more alone.
All that's left are memories of the way things were between us.
Half written poems we never finished
An old notebook full of our thoughts.
No more late night pillow talks.
Now there will always be apart of me
That is missing.
Now we are worlds apart don't you go
And forget about me.
You'll always be in my heart.

Daydreaming poet
I am a poet who has known
Pain joy and sorrow.
Cried many times tried to write
The pain away.
My hand is always in the clouds
Escaping into daydreams.
Because it's the only place that i ever
Seem to be happy.
But we can't live in dreams so i write
Poetry instead.

My heart in a jar
I lay awake staring at moon counting
Stars until i fall asleep.
Tears in my eyes why did i let you in
When you were never mine to love.
Your touch your gentle kiss the way you stole my breathe.
I can't sleep in a bed thats burning feeling things i have no right to feel.
Craving the sound of crys cutting through the darkness of night.
You left with my heart in your jar.
I was listening to some classical music and this poem came to me

When night comes
Everything seems to catch me in
The darkness of the night.
Counting stars until i fall alseep
While my mind trys to stop.
Staring at the moon lost in a crowd
Of thoughts and feelings.
Night doesn't always bring me comfort or rest.
Most things catch me at night
Morning brings me more freedom.
#night #feeling #comfort #crowd #feelings #thoughts
Not everything i write is good
I write for myself.
My poems come from heartache
Pain and sorrow.
Most of my time is spent trying
To keep everything together.
Poetry is my mediation and my
Freedom rolled in one.
When i start to write everything feels
Less painful.
Writing to some people is more  
than just therapy.
I went to see my therapist in our group she
Asked me to explain when i writing how it feels to write

Todays society
I stop and stare at what society has become fake faceless and hateful.
Everyone wants a short cut or a quick fix without the hard work.
Basic skills lost the art of conversion is dead, try talking to someone who is lost their phone.
Ipads read the bedtime storise more percious moments lost.
Alexa is used more and more.
Society has made us feel we can't reach out, until we have reached crisis point.
Why don't we do anything for ourselfs anymore?.
Why do we chase perfection when its not real?.
Whats wrong with taking thr mask off a d just being ourselfs.
Wrote this because i was trying to have conversation with my brother and he was to lost in his phone to even listen to a word i now miss the old days before facebook and alexa

Love and not hate
Love is love.
If it makes you happy and you have your happy ending long may it last.
Everyone deserves to be loved.
I have family who members of lgbtq community and its sad to hear some things that got said to them on a pride event.
Love is love no one has any right to say who should and shouldn't be loved

Careless and be happy
I have learned to careless about
What strangers think of me.
You will never make everyone happy
Love me ot hate it.
Put me down and i will get back up
And my life will go.
If i disappoint you thats only because
I won't live up to your expectations.
Never i will become part of this
Fake faceless and hateful society.
When you careless you live happy.
This is something that i have learned to do
When you stop trying to be what others want your to be you will be much more happy

A confused heart.
I am tierd of how confused my heart is everytime we talk.
Crying in the night wondering if i am
Losing my mind over you.
Can't you see how much it is killing
Me inside does it even matter to you?.
Laying on a tear soak pillow looking
At your name wondering, if should
Just press the delete buttom on you.
Yes my heart will break.
But your killing me everyday.
This has come from a personal experience in todays world with social media we can never be sure who we are talking to and you can get burned

Lost in wonder.
I stand by the window and wonder will the anxious thoughts stop?.
Trying to get through the day without using survival mode.
Tierd of fighting with my own mind everyday.
Feeling a depression thats crushs you.
Its easier to say i'm fine when all
You really want is a hand to hold.
Crying in the night so no one sees your tears writing the pain away.
I stand at the window hoping for a better and happier tomorrow.
This just a passing thought and its a poem from my mental health collection i am working on i hope this helps someone

The reason why i write
My doctors asked if you don't write
Poems for them to be liked, and
Loved why do you do it?.
I write because it is better than popping pills, that will become invisible handcuff.
I can write the pain away and bury
Feelings in lines of poems.
Not everything i write is good maybe its stuff no one wants to read.
But if one person sees my poems and believe, theres a better tomorrow then
I helped someone.
A pen paper and words can heal more
Than what pills can heal.
This poem came from a conversation i had with my therapist, and talked about the
Power of writing ans poetry.

3:00am poem
It's 3:00am and I am still up writing
Poems about you.
Why are you growing on me now?
I can't get you out of my head.
Is it your icy blue eyes could it be
Your well tone masculine body?.
The way you keep it *******.
The way you give me a quick glance
And flash a smile at me.
My emotions are so confused and mixed up.

Lustful dream of you
My eyes close and suddenly I am alone
With you in a beautiful dream.
I can't wake up because I want to stay
In this moment with you.
Feeling your lips pressed against mine
Feeling our bodies entwine
Becoming one.
Lost in every inch of a dreamful pleasure words just can't explain.
Wrapped up in your arms my heart is heavy.
Because when morning comes the dream is over.
This is from my very first poetry collection
Warm summer days sitting on the grass reading poetry books
feeling happy.
Thinking we had all the time in world
Breathing live back into my heart.
Walking bare foot on the grass you where the light in my darkness.
You found a beauty in me no one else could see.
You were the only one who understands me.
I can live without many things but
I couldn't live without you.
Jul 2019 · 165
No more playing nice
For years all you did was make
Me suffer over and over.
You put me down but you couldn't
Keep me down.
You hated how people liked me more
Than they liked you.
I never did anything but just be myself.
I am tierd of the lies you spread like butter on hot toast.
You smiled at me as you burn all
my notebooks one by one.
You can burn everything that I have.
But it doesn't change anything.
Because your still alone.
Hate me if you need to but it doesn't take the your pain away.
You will be the lonely troll who lives
Under a bridge I have had enough.
A family member can be bully you much worse than anyone else can and I just felt so angry that lash out and had to write this poem so if its not so good
Jul 2019 · 264
Loves game
The tears.
The pain.
I love you.
I hate you.
You don't win.
I don't win.
No one wins.
Why do we keep doing this?.

I wish
It's late and I should be sleeping,
But the anxious thoughts won't let me.
I try to put a brave face on everything
And smile even when I am hurting.

I don't know why I feel this way or
Why I just feel like crying.
I can't always explain my thought when I don't understand them myself.

It's a beautiful day when all I want to do is just lock myself away.
I wish that I could feel so much different.

I wish the depression and anxiety would set me free.

Life is a maze
Sometimes everything in my life
Feels like one big maze.
Full of twist turns and mostly dead ends.
Jul 2019 · 102
It's too late
I came looking for help I got silence
And a cold shoulder.
Watching faces hide behind mask spinning a Web of lies.
In darker times I sat alone without
A hand to hold.
Why come to me now when I don't need you.
Jul 2019 · 141
Dreams
My head is always in the clouds
Lost in day dreams.
Escaping the black and white reality
That I know so well.
Sometimes a day dream can bring you
That much needed chill out time
That is truly your own.
Jul 2019 · 240
A sea of beauty
Let me drown in the sea of your
inner beauty.
Let me touch the most broken
part of your heart
Come dance with me in the
warm summer rain.
Touch me under the silver moonlight make me long to taste your kiss.
Let me miss you every time you leave.
Jul 2019 · 114
Happy days
Some bridges need to be burnt and I
Lost the ones that need losing.
Now my dreams are full of colour and
My days are more happy.
Sometimes you just need to burn the bridges with the ones are no good and lose the ones who need losing

A summer rose.
I once looked at you like the stars looked at the moon.
Feeling as if there was nothing more beautiful than this moment, made with you.
Just as the last of the summer roses died so did you.
Until we meet again I will never give
My heart to anyone
This poem come to me when I was out walking the dog and I saw the moon and a star close to each other.

A poets advice.
I must confess I put my pen down not
Sure if I would write poetry again.
Took a step back took time out
Wondered what was next.

Sitting by the water watching as the
World passes me by.
I met a poet who said write what you
Feel not what people want to read.

The greatest poets of our time made
Mistakes and had haters.
Life brings you lovers and haters
But you keep writing.

Never stop doing what you love go home and just listen to your heart.
I met poet who teachs class and we met at the beach and got talking about if I should every write poetry again he was so nice to me we are now friends and I go to his classes he is helping me grow as poet

Lost kisses
The crashing waves kisses the shore
Everytime they meet.
Never will there be another touch
That feels as good as yours.
Never will I hear anything as sweet
As your voice in my ear.
Not even the cool summer breeze feel as good as your fingertips on my skin.
I will never love again or give my
Heart to someone else.
Jul 2019 · 92
Your perfect as you are
Let me tell you one thing.
Your beautiful as you as are.
Your to strong too live hurt.
Please stop chasing one who keeps
Breaking your heart, you
Deserve so much more.
Don't care what strangers think
Care about the ones who love you.
Forget about finding the perfect picture and filter just be yourself.
Refuse to used by anyone.
If your not their first choice then they
Need to be shown the door.
You are enough and you
Deserve someone who wants to
Mend you heart and protect it.
Your special because your one
Of a kind.
You are more than enough.
Sometimes we never feel that we are enough my message in this poem
Is about love your self and forget about living for other people love your self get rid of the people who don't want you to win and grow forget about what strangers thinks they don't matter.

Here and now.
Yesterday has gone and we
Can't control tomorrow.
Not everything will be in our control
Live in the here and now.
Because whatever happens it
Will happen.
I sometimes I feel that it easy to hold on to what happen yesterday or try to control everything and plan for tomorrow that we forget about the here and now

Anxiety is real
The night scares me because I know
The anxious thoughts are waiting.
Waking up in a cold sweat crying.
The screams still haunt me.

Wishing that I could get out of the
Dark maze that's my mind.
If the doctor has a pill for long lasting happiness I would take it.

Everyone tells me your not meant to
Feel this at all and anxiety isn't real.
This is why I write in my notebook and don't talk to you at all.

Anxiety ruins your life come live in my head and then tell me it's not real.
I hate when people say anxiety isn't real some people in my family tell me it's not real, that hurts me because it's something that has robbed many years from my life and this is why I Bury thing in things poetry.

The last call
Will I pretend to be happy so you
Can feel better?.
How many times have you said
This is last time?.

While everything is a game or an act
We are lift to pick up the pieces.
Beer cans and wine bottles every were
You ask why the angry face.

You say that your an adult you don't
Need told what to do.
Live in a ***** house drink yourself
To death I am past caring.

The day you crossed the line was
When you spit in my face.
I had to write something to get my pain and anger out my brothers boyfriend has a drink problem. When he is not on the drink he is nice but he is nasty when he is on it
And after almost hitting me with a bottle and spiting in my face that was the last straw for me.

Heavens angel.
My mind is numb and my heart
Feels more than one emotion.
I am good acting okay when i falling
Apart inside piece by piece.

I am scared of the night because
That's when the thoughts get me.
My mind has become a twisted maze
I want out of.

I wake up in a cold sweat crying
You can't be dead.
The bible says time heals wounds
But my wounds aren't healing.

Did heaven really need another angel?
Couldn't he have taken someone else?.
Grief is something that touch us all its something that you can never be ready for even you know that it's going to happen
I wrote this for the friend that was more like a sister to me

Back at it.
Yes I made a mistake wrote a few
Bad poems I want to forget.
Ready to move on picking up my pen
Listening to my heart as it speaks.

Met a poet who helpped me
With some wise words.
Picked up my pen and wrote again.
Started a new poetry class.

Found my way and found my voice
Learned something new.
Found a new love for the poetry
I almost never wrote again.

Now I am back at it with a new
Poetic voice and tone.
My break has done me good and my new
Poetry class has been a good thing for me.
There was one point that I did think about deleting my hp account. but this site has made me feel happy and helped me grow I did missing posting and I am working first
Poetry collection
I have rock bottom hard.
Yes I have made mistakes and learn
Many lessons.
To all my readers thank you for the
Kinds words and support.
Never have I treated you like idoits
You have helped me grow.
Not ever poems of mine has been
Good enough to post.
I am not putting the pen down I
May take a break for awhile.
Thank you for making me the poet
That I am.
I just wanted to post this to say thank you to
All my reader for the time they have given me. I not giving up on my writing I just need to work on being a better a poet and finding my voice more clearly. I have never claim to be the best poet or even a good poet but each follower I have I am greater for and if I have anngoied or upset anyone all I can do is say sorry and ask not to judge the rest of my work from badly written poem thanks to you its good to step back and take a break and learn my craft better

Karma kiss
Let hate in swallow the poison destory
Life after life.
Cause as much pain as you dare tell lies make people cry.
While happiness is found and you watch as the world passes you by.
You'll be sitting alone unwanted and unloved.
Someday karma will bring you a kiss.
I do believe in karma I believe what you do comes back to you three times worse
#karma #kiss #happiness #cry

Unanswered question
Would it be better to pen the down
And never write again?.
Some people have said no others
Have said do what you think
Is best.
I am not sure I know what to do.

Lonely tears
Your heart is as black as the night sky.
Your eyes are colder than winter.
You let hate consum you.
Your the lonely one who is who crying
Without a hand to hold.
I took inspiration from the ones on my life who have caused so much pain and now. When people see their through them they wonder why they are alone don't allow hate to eat you up. Taking things out on other people doesn't change anything you will be alone

Say nothing do nothing
I could say a million hurtful things
But I won't.
Instead it's better not to react and
Just move on.
Sometimes it's better to walk away
Than let someone take a piece of you
I have learn that rather than get into a stupid argument it's best to just walk away and not react because you take the power away I have never got on with my sister so it's easy to just walk away

All my words where mine
My work is my own and it maybe
Always be good.
Hello poetry was a happy to go.
Now I am not so sure I want
To post anymore.
I have never been dishonest in any way with any of my followers or reads it makes me sick that people can't just let people be you don't like something you that fine but why be so nasty about it I am not so sure if I will post or stay
Jul 2019 · 143
Am I wrong
Is it wrong to be inspired by anything
That makes you write better.
Is it wrong to try and write something
Better.
I wrote this because I posted a poem that was my own and someone thought it wasn't my own work when it was my own now it's got me wondering is wrong to take inspiration from anything now

Happy ending
It will hurt to say goodbye but
In the end it's for the best.
All good things must come to an end
Even you and me.
Go and forget me forever I hope
You find your happy ending.
Sometimes when you can't save a friendship or a relationship there's only one thing you can do for me i love both in one day

Wise words
I red something that said
If you can forgive you will heal.
If you let go you grow.
Now they words are stuck in my head.

Reborn
Around my feet lay the ashes of the
Person I once was.
It made me smile because They said
I would never rise from the fire.
Never listen to people who only want to hurt you.

Not heartless
Heartless I am not
I just learned to use my mind more and use my heart less.
Wrote this because at the moment I just don't trust my heart at the moment but I like to leave it open to interpretation the same poem doesn't mean the same to everyone

All the things I will do
I make mistakes.
I laugh when I shouldn't.
Say stupid things then take it
All back.
No all my choices will be right.
I will fall many times.
I don't have all the answers.
I am not perfect.
But beauty can be found in the
Imperfect things.
That's what makes me real.
I wrote this because we are trying to be the best person that we can be.
Beauty doesn't come in a shape or size you don't need to be perfect beauty can be found in Imperfect things
For me theres no such thing as a perfect person love yourself because your one of kind
