If you’re becoming a poet, you should think about it twice. Once you’re one, you’ll notice every single detail no one else does. You’ll notice the coldness in their eyes, and the way their lips move. You’ll notice the way they sway, and the exact color of their skin. You’ll see poetry in the living and in the death. You’ll feel straighter with a broken leg. You’ll see things everyone else is blinded to. And finally, everytime you get to see blood, you’ll remind yourself you’re alive. These are the reasons no one should ever become a poet.

Smile because it's healthy,
Not because it's beautiful.
Love because it's necessary
And not for the sake of being loved.
Exist because our thoughts do,
Not because He said so.
Speak because the words are cooped up inside our throats, pushing and battling and screaming for air—
Not because our mouths are there.

In search of everything
Browsing the existence of anything
Welcome the silence of the essence,
Play voices of the heart.

It will be
Sought
Merit is
Afford

Enforcing the soul,
Why so little exists.
For as least smile.
For a few reasons,
Live.

maybe i can't confess
curse my faintheartedness

maybe i like you
for we like and hate the same thing

maybe you're too good for me
every little thing about you is gold

maybe i'm only a friend to you
it hurts to hear you talk about her

maybe i'm a shrinking violet
that way i can hide it all

maybe that's it.

The reason why I stand,
Is to fight your laws.

The Reason Why I breathe,
Is to destroy you.

The reason why I *Live
...
Destiny has chosen me.
To stand within the shadows,
To fight with destiny.

My life is different,
There are morals,
Laws and Rules,
That must be Followed.

I'm alive.
**For a Reason.
The reasons why an Assassin or average person lives for justice.

It's easy to call me crazy
instead of facing your faults

But there was reason to my madness,
it wasn't just insanity

Reasons that you don't care to hear
and that I am too exhausted to explain

So call me crazy
and take the easy way out

I don't care anymore

By Chloe Elizabeth
He is the shadow I hide from
He is the darkness in my eyes
He the knife in my heart
He is the tears in my eyes
He is the voice is my nightmares
He is the mocking tune of this twisted melody
He is the reason I'm scared
To be loved by anybody
