Tripping over rollercoasters
of rhymes,
I can't sleep;

I'd put my nose in your mind,
Lace my fingers through
the unpeeled layers I'd find,

But this time, I know
I've been caught; you've come
armed with hand cuffs;

I try to break free
but grow weaker as
I'm being fought.

They say You"re  too Old Now

Girl!!! !
I've Never Been More Right!

They Say All She Does Is Cryin

But Truth
She Hassuch Beauty In Her Sight

They Say You Ain't  Got Love Girl
Well..
We all know that's Not True

Cause
She IS  LIFES Holy Freedom
And That's Love
Tween  HER  and YOU
lost and found Jul 2016
Go ahead,
push me up against the wall
and whisper sweet nothings in my ear,
tell me all the things she wanted to hear.
Put your hands around my neck,
slam me down on our bed,
put me in the same position you put her.
Go ahead,
hurt me more than you already have.

I was never good enough for you, was I?
Don't even try to form a lie,
because if I was good enough,
you wouldn't have gone to her.
Or maybe the problem isn't me, it's you.
Maybe you just can't be satisfied?
Why are you getting so defensive?
Did I hit a nerve?
Oh, you're getting angry now,
but I fail to understand why.
If I could've contained my anger when I walked in
and saw you in our bed with her,
I'm sure you can contain yours.
I'm simply stating facts,
the truth hurts, doesn't it?

I've never wanted to hurt you,
but you've set out to hurt me.
I've forgiven you a million and one times,
yet you just slap me in the face afterwards.

How was she?
Was she good?
Was she better?
Was she worth it?


I hope she was,
because if she wasn't,
she just caused you to lose the one person who
was always there for you.
You've hurt me too many times now,
I'm done. //

You're you
And wow, I'm impressed
A child, 12
Immature and disobedient
Playful as a puppy,
With sharp teeth
A scream
Loud and obnoxious
Addicted
To what I don't know

But
You're 24, a man
I see
Strong and hard
Elegant Wolf
Protector, leader
A sigh
Relief and longing
Sober
Clearing the fog

King to my Queen
I do not serve heaven
Feelings are caught and lost
Caught and lost
Found and discovered

Ever been so angry
That you've started laughing?
Shudders through your body
Just the violent urges passing

When you get caught out
By "anonymous" at school
For posting poems about self-harm
Oh, I'm such a fool

Maybe goodbye to this site?
Maybe move on to another?
Or perhaps I'll stay and not post them
Wow, this is such a bother....

I'm too trusting...
Anonymous goes to my school and told my Defence Councillor because they're concerned... appreciate the concern, but perhaps not right now?

Regressing into happenstance
I grasped the Rabbit in my hand
One sip I took, upon a chance
Off the edge, into quicksand. . .

Blacking out on your front lawn
On the ground, where you could stand
Can’t remember dusk or dawn,
Sinking fast into quicksand.
Worth continuing?
Pauline Morris Mar 2016
A person who wants nothing never can be bought
A person who won't fight never can be fought
A person who doesn't lie never can be caught
A person who won't play the game never can be used
A person who dosen't cheat will always pay his dues
A persons who never thinks can never have any views
A person who dosen't care what you think will never leave you confused
A person who has nothing they will never lose
So never judge another until you step into his shoes
Mollie Grant Feb 2016
Days begin
somewhere under
the height of
the sinking moon

and the tides that dance in and out
with it; I drift among
the crests—resting among them—
wondering how to catch a fish—
how to catch myself.

in love

Sometimes
You get hurt

Sometimes
You get caught

But either way

It never turns out
Like you *

He grabbed her hand
     Covered her eyes
      Snatched her from gravity
      Flew her to the highest point in the skies
      Held her body tight

" O p e n  y o u r  e y e s "

She did and what she saw was terrifying
      The world beneath her feet

He said
    *Don't be scared
        I've got you
             And I'm  n e v e r  letting you go
Don't let me go...
