I own nothing
nothing at all.
Think before doing or else you too will fall.

I've never seen or felt love before
but then I met you.  You opened the door,
the stone gate guarding my melancholy heart.
Now that you're here, stay to play your part.
I role in my life usually vacant.
Stay here with me, I have plenty of patience.
I promise not to argue.  I'll only listen.
Speak your mind to me.  Let nothing be hidden.
I will give you everything I have.
Just be here by my sad and never be sad.
I'll be happy with you for the rest of my days.
Never will I get over your gaze.

Your eyes a creamy, deep rich brown.
Your face seems to glow, your red hair always down.
The way you move is mesmerizing.
The words you say are hypnotizing.
I love you wholly with all of my heart.
I think no one can tear us apart.
I did not see
all the signs you left for me.
Once I found them, I couldn't understand.
Why would you leave my for another man?
None of it is true.  It must all be a lie.
But deep down inside I wish I would die.
You cheated on me with another.
We can no longer trust each other.
I lost everything to my ignorance.
I can't believe you and your difference.

Now, I own nothing,
nothing at all.
Think before doing or else you too will fall.
Being cheated on is the worst feeling.  It's a different kind of heartbreak.

could it be
that we all are lying
lying about out life‘s purpose
is it really family? Our jobs or just money?
what is it?
only few find out
before they meet the end

If you lied
and he lied
and everyone's lying
then what am I doing here
listening to everything
when I could be damaging my ear hairs
another way?
rambles always

is it almost December?
am I finally graduating?
my my time flies, I've done so much
now, I'm ready to move on to the next chapter
opening my gate to something new
taking risks and opportunities
finding a new hobby; be
in love with someone new; and begin a
new adventure; I'm...
excited!
Did you guys manage to find the hidden meaning behind this piece? The first letter from each line spells out "I am not fine". I've been telling people I'm fine and telling them how excited I am about everything... but deep inside, I know I'm still not... I'm still confused and lost about everything and thus, the messy structure towards the end of the poem. The "..." before excited also emphasized my doubts.

She didn't quite have a clear understanding of what she had come home to
Her parents lying on the floor
Jagged bits of the shattered mirror
And a bloodred carpet
Her older sister upstairs in the bathtub
With reflective glass in her wrists
She stepped outside
It was too much
She'd have to live with her aunt
She didn't want to
The weeds that grew around her house leaned against her ankles
Queen Anne's Lace to her thighs
Dandelions tickled her feet as she walked
She stood in front of the bridge
And thought

No

She decided

No

First
She called her boyfriend
He rushed over
And held her in his arms
As she tried to cry
Tried to feel emotion
He called the cops for her
She told him about her aunt
He almost cried
He held her tighter
Stay
With me
He said
She said yes
And finally cried
A story. I don't know. I'm just feeling... sad.

How it’s advised in a relationship to not tell lies,
you tend to think those things you keep is to prevent from hurting
but its to cover up as you cheat,
its more selfish on your part
you keep braking my heart,
the truth is much more deserving,
its quit terrible some of the things you've  done,
some are good, some are bad, some made me happy, sad and mad, some are embarrassing and some you’d wish you never had,
how you try to cover it all up,
but lie after lie you'll just get caught up,  
there are those things that you tend to forget
not important to remember it,
now that might be many things you've done,
most all bad i hope you had fun,
if it was something in the past you'd like to keep
hidden but that never last,
and it will become draining you'll see
but you started the lie
it wasn't me,
how our relationship became nothing
just another lie

"Are you okay?"

They always say.

"I'm fine." I reply.

But you know, I lie.


I lie that I'm glad.

I lie that I'm not sad.

They never know what's inside.

They never know what I hide.


I lie and say that I'm filled with joy.

I lie and say my demon isn't trying to destroy.

I lie about a lot of things.

And you know, false happiness it brings

i didn’t feel anything.
not when the curves of the earth
dipped into valleys and we plummeted into each other
not when we draped silk between our mouths
and kissed each thread into dust
not when i felt the honey from your tongue
cascade and soothe my worried heart
i felt nothing even when i pretended to
and i do so wish i had any regrets
because tomorrow,
i will still feel nothing,
and i will still want to.
ju. i sometimes worry that i’m becoming the villain, but then i think that would be very cool, so i continue. i’m excited and nervous to see who this will turn me into.

They say i'm crazy
They say i'm dangerous

They might be right

They say He's lying
They say He's dangerous

They might be right

I say We're dying
I say we're nothing anymore

I think I might be right...
