...if my eyes were blunts, they’d be rolled tight with tears. even a sharp mind, can feel so blunt sometimes. emotions rise high— but every crash-out drags me back to earth. sigh… maybe i’ve just always been too down to earth. ..

down to earth
A girl can be a mean *** with a mean *** But I don't mean *** I mean, as in being Mean, even when you're already an *** And also I could be mean too much, Or maybe I could mean too much — But it wouldn't mean that much, To be mean, that much. And I could be mean as such, Really for any means as such — In order for a means that has a such. Even as this, seems to be a mean verse, _The question is, which one of course?_

A mean poem
you were iridescent like a diamond your lustre, the fire inside you brilliant in every aspect, facet i thought so too, and believed i was nothing compared to you no spark or shine just endless night inside the depths of a black coloured gem an onyx to a diamond, which is worth more? your life or mine? in the end, it was yours

A second hit, Green. I’m clean I’ll say I’m clean.

Caught in this space between (life) and death, Trying to muster the (will) go on, To (get) back the joy in my hollow eyes. I wish I were (better), stronger, enough For (my) loved ones, who anchor me when I drift away, They call out, “(Darling), come back to us”.

Untitled #6 - Parentheses Play
Some girl I never knew knew an art that wasn’t kung fu. She did not whistle well when her peaches didn’t sell. And a boy I never liked loved her not at first sight. He kissed her on a day it didn’t rain never to lay eyes on her again. Nary a soul whispers her name, nary a heart feels any shame. She was pretty not so long ago, this girl I will never know.

**Falling in love with a boy who smokes but never having the courage, to ask for a cigarette**

when looking to help, don't give a man a life jacket when he's dying of thirst because kindness born from ignorance can be just as cruel as hatred born from pain.

drowning in air
I am spectacularly Ignorant. I cannot understand anything Complex, not to mention intelligent. Somehow, I am miserable at Every new thing I attempt, I Fail at the same things I watch my peers Excel at. Over the past few years, I have found that I am worth Absolutely nothing. I hate myself More than I ever thought was possible. I really don't think I'm going to be okay.

Falling
I sort of know why things are this way I sort my thoughts about it into little glass jars inside of my mind Making light of my troubles I smile past them Making light beams shining through the darkness that is my heart The race that I belong to of crooked misfits without the appealing rebellious pride The race I run everyday wondering how I'll ever chase down Time and pass it at the finish line, but I can't keep up and Time, just like Life, goes too quickly The club trumps my heart everyday, every moment, and I do loathe being second best, yet again The club of Inadequacy that beats me ****** and bruised everyday The fairness of your face can alter your fate and change whether you are adored or disliked The fairness of reality is horribly off balance and nearly nonexistent So I must act fine and dress fine and look fine because only the lovely are loved in this world So I must act fine even though I am not okay because I can't be what I am not and I get to be what I was born as and that is my identity and my identity only gets a single definition, only one single meaning I get to be Me and that means Me, it can't mean Me as well as Lovely. and I just can't be a double meaning. Repost if you cannot be a double meaning. Please comment! I love to read interpretations of my poetry or your thoughts on my work or on poetry itself as an art! :)

I Just Can't Be A Double Meaning
You shine so bright, Blessing us with your light, Around the sun so insignificant, As he shadows your magnificence, But night will cone with no electricity, And people will flock to the city, Begging you to flicker for them please, But you're not at ease, Because of the times you were forgotten in the dark, When people didn't notice your spark, You don't need them they need you, Until the moon kills your mood as she replaces you.
