this is a world that is not ours
mother earth
she gave us life
but even in our early stages
greed overtook us
she ate the apple
she gained the knowledge
but the damage was done

if eve never ate the apple
we wouldn't be where we are today
but
i eve never ate the apple
we wouldn't be where we are today
in this world that is not ours

all we do is take
we never give back
just remember
this is a world that is not ours

in the couple years we have left
before we crumble
to the ground
we need to give
we can still undo
some
of the damage that has been done
in this world that is not ours
please dont litter
1
one
is a number
just above zero
sometimes
used to refer
to me
my looks
my personality
but when i was one
i didnt care
about the little things
i guess
i am just truly a one

in the dead of night, shadows whisper and crawl, voices slither from the deep, and a chill wraps tight, stealing breath as silent screams signal the unseen.

beneath the moon's ghastly gleam, figures twist and turn, their hollow eyes, empty and wide, draw you closer to the edge. the wind wails a mournful song, carrying the weight of something unseen, lost souls ensnared in endless night, trapped by shadows, void of light.

footsteps echo, unheard yet there, in a house where silence lives. doors groan open, whispers hiss, through empty halls, a phantom kiss. a mirror cracked with tales untold reflects a gaze so cold, spirits bound to shadow's grasp, forever trapped in night's dark clasp.

in the attic, shadows crawl, a rocking chair sways to the call, though no one sits, it rocks alone, a chilling wraith, all skin and bone. midnight tolls the witching hour, darkness gathers all its power, from the abyss, shadows rise, claiming their prey with lifeless eyes.

heed this warning, if you dare, beware the night and what stares there, for in the dark, the spirits prowl, seeking souls, their mournful howl.
horrors
in the whispers of a moonlit night, where shadows cast a fragile light, love, a dirge of sorrow played, in hearts once close, now torn and frayed.

it’s in the touch of ghostly hands, in the silence where the void expands, a bond once strong, now shattered, a garden of dreams long scattered.

love fades with the morning sun, in races lost, battles never won, it’s the anchor in life's storms, a place where cold despair forms.

it’s the laughter that echoes hollow, in memories that leave a shadow, a promise broken, dreams now lost, in every breath, love bears its cost.

it’s the strength in times of anguish, a refuge where hopes all vanish, a silent vow, forever untrue, a dimming light in all we do.

in every heartbeat, every sigh, in every tear we might cry, love, once bright, now void of light, guides us through an endless night.

in moments dark and deeply forlorn, where once bright love has now withdrawn, the warmth of touch fades to cold, and whispered secrets go untold.

in every corner of the mind, echoes of love’s past bind, a hollow space where joy once lay, now a haunting, endless grey.

the void within grows with time, a silent chime, a mournful rhyme, in the wake of love’s cruel end, where broken hearts can never mend.

each sunrise brings a hollow ache, a reminder of the love at stake, a phantom limb of what once was, in the shadow of love’s lost cause.

as days turn into nights so bleak, with every tear that wets the cheek, love’s memory, a painful shard, embedded deep, forever scarred.
this was hard to write
i wish i was an only child
but sometimes i dont
my sister
she shares
she loves
she laughs
but all i respond with is a hit
a yell
a scream
all i am is mean
and sometimes i wish
she was an only child
love your siblings
she loves me
she loves me not
i feel giddy
i feel love
is it real this time?
i wonder
will i be lied to?
will i be insulted?
punched?
kicked?
cut?
yelled at?
called out?
made fun of?
laughed at?
will you never feel the same way i do?
because when i cried
you didnt
and when i got knocked down
you didnt
and when i died
you didnt
and i wonder
if i should love you at all
third times the charm
the fire in your eyes
the fire in your heart
you strive
to do good
the fire in your eyes
the fire in your heart
the crazy men
they carry me away
up and over
around a bend
and then back again
the crazy men
they carry me away
and i finally feel free
this is a recurring dream

love
is a silly little thing
it brings people together
it pushes them part
and i think
i dont need love
it is a silly little thing
but why do i crave it
yes i crave it so
i wish upon a star
to look apon my lover
in upon the char
i feel that i might hover
with the love
from a lover

oh love
why do you come to me
in my saddest moments
two breakups
two bursts of love
spiraling me
into the void
but not the void i write
but it is one that bites
it is the void of craving love

oh love
oh cupid
you shot my friends
and their love
is inexplicable
and i love
love
and if i forever
am left without a lover
i might just cut
my wrists
once again
my friend just got a girlfriend, and he told me not to tell anyone. i am so very happy for him, but i cant help feeling this way. poetry it is am i right

many colors
many drawings
i made when i was three
but they would break
just like my heart
why would you do this
to me

i rip up the drawings
on my wall
screaming
at the world
but those crayons
the many colors
will always be there
for me

i cry
i scream
i starve
i cut
but those crayons
stand untouched
waiting
and waiting
and waiting
for me
to play with them again
