Words flying through her mind
Scattered, uncoordinated;
Not in a straight line
They all jumble together
To form her persona,
She's a being made with a vocabular aura
Her soul can be read like a scripture.
People go through her like a book
Some don't take care of her.
Others admire, others desire
Others simply need her to complete their set.
Some find beauty in her unique mindset.
Some judge by the cover
Others read and discover
Between the lines
Of her complex mind
Some like her; some don't
She's not a bestseller
Her author is God
Books with blank pages? They tell her
That really is odd
She smiles a small smile
At their shallow train of thought
Then continues her journey
*Built on the words they forgot.
POEM 25

The moon speaks
with its silver tongue,
lighting a path
through your bedroom window,
reflecting the contours
of your beauty,
as its words of silver
poetically tickle your dreams.

i'm breaking
i can't be fixed
i'm missing
but i wont be missed

still shaking
from what i fear
i can't let you in
so, don't come near

i guess you are right
i'm way too difficult
& i'm fighting a battle
that i will never win

i have so many flaws
i don't know where to start
from my messed up hair
to my messed up heart

so, what's the point
to continue this fight??
when my restless days
turn into restless nights

this life hasn't been fair
i can finally say
that nobody care
& it hurts like hell
When I've written something deep;
When I really want your attention;
And I need you to read it with emotion,
With my feelings and my voice;
And I'm hoping you get my meaning,
Because I think you need help,
I use asterisks.
Asterisks.
Ever look closely at an asterisk?
Draw one.
Enlarge it on your screen.
Notice any resemblance to anything you own,
Anyone you know?
It looks like the
*Selfie of an *******.
Tip of the cap to Kurt Vonnegut, "Breakfast of Champions."
