You took a rusty razor blade to my heart scraping away my chance of adventure and freedom Leaving droplets of blood-stained dreams on the ***** floor while you sail away with the fantasy that I dared whisper aloud.

Crime Scene
Eradicate the words you once spoke to me They mean nothing Alleviate my pain & let me levitate I write these words to forget my pain Erase my memory & ease my agony No longer do I want to think of you Or how you made me feel Or how you made me fall in love with your brokenness Your smile, warm felt like home But now that home is just a house with skeletons How i wish I could burn down that house Expunge it from existence alongside all the love I have for you “Erase my memory & ease my pain...” These words a prophecy yet to be fulfilled Oh how I live to see that day ... When your existence is finally obliterated From my memory

Erase my memory & ease my pain
Despite efforts to try to erase you from my mind i still catch myself wondering how your day is going who you talked to, whatever drama it is you have now is this what love is? if so i have it for the wrong soul if i can convince myself you never had a second thought about me maybe i can get over this mountain of memories

Wine at my lips I listen to KillSwitch. My curse was your song to me. I blare it so **** loud my ears begin to bleed. The lyrics circle me. They lift me off this ***** floor. Bringing me back to our memories. Back to where our hands bared that wedding band. Back to a home of intoxicating kisses and a passion others only dreamed of. Back down to where I felt at home... God **** it, Why did I have to listen to this song.

"Get over it"
Pretty, ugly, smart, stupid, **** loser, criminal, black, white, perfect, wrong, addict, outcast, normal, and freak. What does it matter? We use stereotypes to classify each other, To separate ourselves into different groups. I remember when I was young that I was never in dresses, skirts, or nail polish, and I didn't like pink. I was treated as one of the guys, and that was how I liked it. Then I got into school, where I was told I was wrong. I was supposed to wear skirts, I was supposed to love dresses, and I was supposed to like pink. I became a freak, an outcast because I didn't. They categorized me, I became nothing more than a title, as did everyone else who walked through the door. We live life and whether we like it or not, When we see someone we mentally sort them and tell them who they are supposed to be. And heaven forbid they don't fit where they should. Because if they don't they suddenly, become nothing more than jagged puzzle pieces, So jagged that they don't fit anywhere and shouldn't be allowed to. Yet here I am, proud to be jagged, and proud to be wrong, Proud to stand out. My mom does more than worship her man, Is she wrong? My uncle is a police officer, Does he brutalize? My Aunt likes wine, Is she a drunk? And I don't like pink, Am I a freak? We go through life being told how to live. Follow the trends, Have the prettiest friends. Don't talk about the things that you've battled, And don't let them see you're rattled. You need to wear this and eat that, And did you see her god she's so fat! Be more like her, And fall in love with him. Because if you don't your chances are slim. If you're not like them you don't matter, Because we have been stamped with our peers' opinions. We've been told time and time again to reshape ourselves. Too bad that our time has passed to change the world, But have no fear for we still have time to change ourselves. Be pretty, Wear pink, Like this dress, Follow this sport, Wear these shoes, Live here, Shop there, And- But what if I don't want to? I am who I am and I'm happy this way! Isn't that enough for you? No, it can't be, because I don't have the right to be just me. I don't have the power to decide! She'll say be taller, I'll have to. He'll say be smaller, I'll have to. They'll say be quieter, I will have to. I will say be louder, And I can't. Because I am a freak. Because I don't like pink.

Don't be so bitter last love of mine It wasn't a lie or a waste of time You taught me much about who I am And more about who I am not I am no ***** no criminal, no thot But I am worthy of love and lust and touch You taught me to be gracious and grateful and kind You taught me to love someone like me That wasn't you now I can see But it's not like it wasn't meant to be So don't be bitter last love of mine Time will mend you have her and I have wine Speak ill as you will I can't stop what you do But I have learnt to forgive and so should you

Last Love Of Mine
You talking **** like I’m the one, who broke the truth, You say I cheated when I loved you most, I’m not the one, who lied during the good times, How can you be mad when you broke me? Honestly girl I tried to save us, You sat their hoping id just shut up, You didn’t like me but you’re mad about a kiss, Get over yourself it was but bliss, How can you be mad when u lied all this time? I played a game and ruined my own life, Don’t you understand you were my world? Now you’re nothing **** shouldn’t be my queen, You made our problems public, You hurt me even more, I’d love to say I hate you, But I guess I still hurt more.

how can you be mad?
*It's not the haze of the early morning taking up your side of the bed that tells me it's time to pretend you weren't here again last night. It's not the gaze of a silent songbird peering at me through the window that tells me it's time to act like I don't know who you were. It's not anything I can pinpoint or explain, convey, or describe that would let you know how much I wish this wasn't so.*

It Really Isn't Anything At All
Caution! She's not for you! You're supposed to forget, right? That's how it goes. But then... What if she hasn't forgotten? She probably has. Or at least she doesn't want to remember. You'd tell yourself Everyone has their time. She definitely had yours. Oh ah... Brush your shoulders. Shrug it off. You're supposed to forget, right?

How It Goes
Hey girl I know you don't care anymore but I'm still thinking of you (and will be for a long time to come) I'm sorry about that. It's...hard I guess it gets easier every day or at least it used to be like that I don't know why you're still in my head. I hope you're well I wish I could hear your voice at least once I miss you so much Again, sorry about that too. Love you poupee

For A.Z.
I guess there really is only one way to get over someone. Or Is it that there's only one way that you know of? You take a little piece, you give a little piece, right? So Maybe it's not really a matter of getting over it but rather a matter of deciding how big that little piece is going to be? Is it more important that each piece fit? Or is it more important that each piece be worth something?

For A.D.W.
There's nothing but just one day left. By then I have to be over him. I know that it makes no sense, But nothing ever makes sense. Maybe what I'm really longing for is someone who will do that. Someone to make sense with, Other than my best friend. How do you get over someone in one day, When you've had a senseless crush on them for a year? There's not much attracting me to them, There's just thoughts of my imagination and he's there to fill the place. I can't keep doing this, But I just can't stop. Something not even a slap around the face could solve. I may as well dive into ice cold water, Knowing I have no towel. That's what it's like falling for him. However I managed to get myself into such a state, That it's not even him I like anymore. And I tried so hard to prevent this, Yet I'm sure it's still happened. I have one more day to convince myself it's not worth it. That I already know. I just can't control my thoughts, And lately it's been making me feel so crazy on top of everything else. I'm not sure what to do now, But breathe, Just breathe and hope for something. So many things going on in my head. Just forget these feelings. What was never here needs to leave my mind. I feel so stupid and I feel mental. Is there anybody who knows the answer? I've been searching and I can't find it anywhere.

One More Day
I will resent you for the rest of my days, even if they somehow find a way to intertwine with yours again. I hate you for saving me. For showing me how heroic I could be if I put my mind to it. For teaching me to let people in and making me see all the love I have to give them. I'll always hate you for that. It makes me sick that I was sick before and now that I've regained my health, I've spread the spores to everyone else & now they are infected. For the record you did not reject me, I quarantined myself, you're so very welcome. I will resent you for the rest of my days for promising me the world then leaving me to cope alone with loss and the paradox of better words.

The Loss
She spent all her time Knitting with crimson wool Because there was nothing more tragically beautiful Than unfurling grief Into woven harmony.

Spool of grief
Should be using this pilfered and minimal wifi and, man, it seems that time does fly... while I'm procrasti-time-wasting reading bad (well, most of it) poetry. You see I'm used to feeling like I've missed the boat and shown my hand and slit my own **** throat... "It's his own fault." How terrifying and amazing (faux)freedom is... blood and water and choices. Life is frosted and sort of sleeping but not shivering enduring. It's too bad I identify with the grasshopper more than the ant. I can't be bothered with preparation because Right Now. Right Now is full of hows and whys and whens and so many that depend upon shoulds and coulds and ifs and I-need-to-make-a-lists. It seems that I prefer the anxiety of what could be to what is. Control freak. Sitting here, with my cold nose and sore bones and more than my usual non-layer of clothes with two very interesting up-past-their-bedtime individuals there is no regret. It is, and it isn't, over yet. Supposing pity isn't the word choice, how else would you say, "I feel for you," without that voice? And even saying it is a choice I'd rather not make. That's the thing about leaving the cage and toeing the line and finding the road... there is no map. You can either enjoy the journey or feel like, "It's a trap."

Shoulds
I know you aren't worth crying for but I just can’t help myself. The same way I can’t help but notice the ever changing colour of your eyes in the sunlight I don’t know why I can’t get you out of my head but what I do know is that I deserve better and you, you are not better. You are poison .
