#sobs
I remember that night It was full of light People laughed And I smiled You walk to me A shining smile Ear to ear A face of tall tales You took my hand I looked into your eyes I was drawn But then I realized Your charm, your grace I was almost entranced But I knew clearly This wasn't right You're too old I'm too young But you tried To force down your tongue I cried, Yes I cried, You leave me, "You're not mine" You were too strong I was too weak You dragged me By my pant's seams We were in bed Your fingers on me But oh Lord I make my plea She forced me She told me No one would care No one would try Besides, I'm a guy She's a gal If we were tried They'll say: "Why didn't you try? She's just a woman, You're a fool, A disgrace" I'm not her man I'm not a man Just some boy With a broken wing She was my Lord She was the Queen Me? Well... Just a pleb So it didn't even matter Cause why not? She's reclaiming the power Her people lost January 5th, I walk to my room Breathing in the cold air For it will be my last A rope around my neck Tears in my eyes I told the truth, But they said it was a lie Now I call Death, Oh beloved Death To take me As her lover The pain was too much The insults too many I'm a man They say in envy I shall never fly I shall never soar She clipped my wings My lust, my soul I breathe my final breath Lord forgive me, But after her I know hell

Lovesong
it hurt when you didn't say i love you of course, it hurt but i was so good at hiding my feelings too good i laughed it of and later we joked about it but as soon as i was alone my smile broke and i heard my violently sobs becoming louder and louder but not a tear came i was cold a limp human body without a soul

Seven years of loneliness Seven years if emptiness Seven years of misunderstandings Seven years of discouragement Seven years of self hatred Seven years of failures Seven years of jeer Seven year of fear Seven years of lost cheer Seven years is all it took To make me strong and then weak again To make me loose my own self To make terror take away the sound of sobs To make me dead inside but alive outside I fought in the storm, fought in the battle of pain But I came out stronger and braver These years were not capable of Taking that glimmer of hope away Stopping me from dreaming Stopping me from living Stopping me from hard work Seven years is all it took To ruin my life but give me the most beautiful meanings To make me realise that Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds. Despite how frenzied these years were This artistic destruction will always be a part of me

choking
shadows and silhouettes dancing on the ceiling. blinding blue lights circle the bathroom mirrors stained with purple lipstick. silent vibrations from your phone blocked by the shower’s storm and overflowing sink water. spilled lotion bottles and untouched lemon wicks. wadded tissues colored in colorless tears drowning in puddles of the bathroom tiles. girls’ giggles in the room next, moaning through the right wall, and sad chocolate eyes abandoned behind the shower curtains. wet hair, wet mascara, wet sobs; your sad chocolate eyes trapped in a nightmare.

pools of chocolate pain
He thought everything was alright since he never heard her sobs. So he went on with his life after a halfhearted apology. And she went back to bed filling her favorite pillows with her silent sorrows.

What Happened that Night
So smooth with my words, but not caring when it counts The many times we kissed, i don't know the amount So drawn in by your whisper So engaged in everything you said R.I.P to my heart, because that part of me is dead what lead me to this point, what put me in this position Had me concentrating on you, hopefully wishing So smooth, the way i approached you, so eager with the way i grabbed you I knew from that day on i didn't want to be without you You lucked up this time, but i never gained closure because i never wanted to let go, i just wanted to get closer...

Smooth Lines
seeing my grandmother cry herself to sleep because she had to bury her lover 6 feet deep a feeling that makes me cry myself I never thought I'd have to feel my poor grandmother feels so alone I would do anything to help her heal she wakes up each morning completely in ignorant bliss forgetting about the sobs in her sleep without her husband's goodnight kiss moving around keeps herself busy drinking alcohol every night to make her dizzy once the thoughts slow down and her mind comes to relief she must think about her deceased husband crying in disbelief she longs for connection from the family who still lives asking them to come around before her heart gives living through the days she tries so hard but she struggles to visit his garden in the backyard he still lives around their home leaves his shoes by the front door she will never be rid of him her love for him lasting evermore I wish I could help her I think about her every day and how my poor grandpa never meant to make her feel this way

I Wish I Could Help
Trapped behind these lies. living in my world of deception. Silence screams, ears bleed Muffled sobs Be who you are. But I hate who I am I am not good enough. But you are enough she weeps.

my lies
the current flows rapidly down my cheeks and my eyes puffy like balloons my face quivering, the sobs erupting from my mouth my knees weak my heart shattered i tell myself i shouldn't cry that i'll be okay but how do i know that? how do i know that this hurt is going to stop? what if it never stops? is it like a toothache? the pain comes and goes, only getting stronger and stronger until you have to get it taken out? what if i can't remove this pain like i can my tooth? what if this ache in my heart won't heal and the crack will never mend? who am i to know what my heart wants? maybe it's tired of my reckless decisions and has decided that it doesn't want to be healed maybe it will stay this way and prepare for the next wave of pain to come just like that toothache but... what happens when the pain is finally too much? can i die from a broken heart? how will i prepare for another love? how do i know that this is the one? how do i know that he loves me? how do i know when it's finally going to end? how...

how?
I remember getting THAT call... every second. I remember the STING of the cold air, against my skin. The JAGGED stains of dirt on my jeans When I FELL to the solid ground. ...Like I was just STABBED. Dirt COVERED my hands, that could be mistaken for blood. I could HEAR the sound... of my heart shattering. An EXCRUCIATING wave of pain. I couldn't BREATH. Choking out tears & Stifled SOBS, until I was nothing. But, a SMALL mess on the cold ground. My eyes flicker OPEN, "Did I JUST die? Am I dead?" I FELT dead, and empty. I feel an AWFUL numbness, take over MY body. I look AT the sky, through scattered tree limbs. Specks of WHITE fall on me. My hot face stings WITH every speck. ...with EVERY newly made snowflake I now see MY breath in front of me. Staring at the SNOW as it falls. I am nothing but a SHELL, I am NOTHING without her. I live FOR her. So... HOW do I learn to, live without. I wish for DEATH. But, I get CONSTANT waves of numb and empty pain instead. I hate HER and I can't stand her. ...But I NEED her. So, NO matter how much she hurts me. I'd APOLOGIZE for it, and she's killed me so many times. That if she got MY blood on HER hands, I'd clean them. I just CAN'T un-love her.

6 word story #3
Writing poetry has changed me a lot since i became a subject of the material, and my words are more fixed and flawed than myself. They flow from line to rhyme, stabbing me into the heart a hundred pages of thoughts is spinning so fast that i can barely catch any of it if it really means a lot to me. It is as to flood me into downpour with it from the Sun yet the typical look reflected on a mirror reminds me of who i really was and nothing can be re-written from a history. No roses can blossom without a rain, they said, like they babbles up themselves to say in front of enemies that every petals are new-born warriors and the rest of  the past was the biggest blur as if they were dropped directly into a wrong time, at a wrong place, like it's made by fairy tales.
