fail

oh please, *******
and your opinion,
good deeds are selfish,
dont you know, so why
dont u spare me the kindness
of blessing me without
your words for a while,
just like i fail to do to you,
with everything u dont want
to hear,
sorry i guess,
but if she can come off as bipolar,
so can you.

i wrote something different but i accidentally deleted it and wrote this instead. not really mad anymore just hurt, and i exaggerated a lot in case youre reading this. just listen before u preach maybe.

Remember Charlie

Draw an illustration
Cast out all delusions
Radical and insane
Crazy by any name

Rise against the fears
Stand up with your peers
Martyrs, you are not
Away in the ground and rot

Charlie, we stand with you
Remembering those we knew
Thousands to hear your voice
Louder you have a choice

Terror will not prevail
Your acts will all but fail
Cowards we see you there
Crushed and no one cares

Remembering Charlie
Artists and all
Freedom will win
Salute, we stand tall

Remembering the victims in Paris

I am

I am second place,
I am the runner-up,
I am the one who comes so close,
Just to mess it up.

I am the failed designer,
Who left out the crucial part,
And without a thought condemned to death,
A thousand heavy hearts.

I am a second too late,
I am the narrow miss,
I am the one who lost the girl,
Just before the kiss.

I am the last survivor,
The final one to die,
Who saw his friends bleed and pass,
Before his very eyes.

I am the chosen one,
Who failed to meet their fate,
I am the glaring disappointment,
Overwhelmed with hate.

I am inside everyone,
I live within the soul,
But lucky for you, instead of me,
You will meet your goal.

Please, fail gently. (Haiku #11)

Center yourself now

You can't forget the good things

They'll be here so soon

Shine

You pure soul,
shining onto this
world with nothing
but a smile;
Hoping for the best
in every situation,
and watching as it
fails, encouraging
to try once more.

Ice

Slowly,
Once shining spears of nature's glass,
Cry themselves away.
The shards that decorated the freezing arms of aging oaks,
Lose their will to live.
Hopelessly,
Striving for stillness, seeking life,
But doomed to become,
Tears of trees that fall in slow motion in winter's chill,
When the sun's warmth fails.
Finally,
Their journey ends with a triumph,
Not their own but still,
Celebrated by chaos, as order collapses,
With each falling drip.
Drip.
...
Drip.
...
Drip.

I've tried

I've tried and tried to live this perfect happy life
But the expressions on my face are all just a lie
It's hard when you're the one left out
The one nobody has ever made time for
I've tried and tried to walk out the door
But something always pulls me back
I've tried ans i've tried but theres no winning.

wasting my time Dec 2014

My dreams burned stars

Dreams either come true
or they burn into stars
But the way you
whispered hymnals into my head

Bones break into a million pieces
causing organs to fail
I let you tear my bones
and now my heart is missing

Windows are foggy from the heat
I guess that's why I couldn't see
And the night sky was closed
But your eyes created the darkness

If you stare at the ceiling long enough
the walls will start to cave in
I learned this from you
And my eyes turned black that night

You didn't let me speak but
I'm glad you kept humming
Street lights are supposed to lighten the street
But they darkened your clothes

I found my heart this morning
the blood draining between my fingers
See, I was never sad about you
But I kept tripping on the smoke

I can't tell if you know about me anymore
You never really did
And I couldn't look at you because
I was scared what I would find

Dreams either come true
or they burn into stars
But you whispered to me and
My dreams burned stars into my soul

that he couldn't breathe either.

Hope

Whenever you give me a hope,
I'm telling myself to not fall for you
But I failed

I should have known it was always a prevaricate hope
Or it was not a hope
It is just me,
Who always fall in tricky trap

And it is just me
Who always hope something
That I have never deserved for

I failed telling myself to not fall for you
