Bouncing and flying
Is this a dream?
Maybe I'm superman just learning to fly
Melt into the speed with no regrets
I live for a little bit of danger
While my legs stick to the seat with sweat
Will this ghetto metal hold up?
Rattle, rattle, creek, creek
Will we crash into a rock or hard place,
And make things worse,
By wedging ourselves further in?
Further in
Could be further out
Dark voices are scary
But not when you join in
My music only goes so loud
I write myself into silliness
It's not worth it
Not at this cost,
Of weightlessness
Soaring through the darkness
In a rough way
Not knowing what’s next
It feels like morning is so far away
But I like the quiet of the night
And how all the sane people are sleeping
What happened to us?
What's with all the fuss?
How do you not know why you texted her?
My friend said that it wouldn’t be a good idea to get back with you; I concur
I'm afraid to call you an oaf
Since you still have my loaf
I don’t want to call you a nitwit
Even if that word perfectly fits
I don’t want to call you what you still are
To me what you are seems so far
I don’t want to say
You never really loved me all those days
We had, I had plenty of good thoughts
For you, I unfortunately had the wrong timed hots
No matter how badly you want to get back with me
Well now you'll get to feel how I did when I disagreed
It wasn’t a smart thing to do
This love was true
You literally ruined it for your good
You loved her, I understood
Now without you distracting me
I can get a good degree
You now are going to end up all alone
Even if you try to phone
I'm not going back to my heartbreaker
You were my heart taker
You better never say that I never loved
Last time I believed you when you sent your doves
This break up doesn’t really hurt
It will though, just wait for her dirt!
I don’t know what love is
I just can’t wrap my head around it
Like the size of the universe
Love makes people do crazy things, but it just usually makes me curse
How could you not lose hope and keep lining up shells?
Because of love
I am third wheeling it
And it’s lonely
But not for the lovers, only
They are unconsciously awake
Let’s travel
And get a plane ticket
To a place where our hearts don’t feel heavy with atmosphere
Dear,
Let’s start again
Even if I feel like a spring…
Stressed out
Is how I work
Otherwise
I just sit on my ass instead of taking to the skies
I need to get away to any other place
A new reality where I will not be a sad tragedy
But will have a happily ever after
Filled with much laughter
Because any other place has got to be better
I currently live in a deep cave of a library, that’s full of empty dreams
I stare at the ceiling as I scream with laryngitis
And I feel the shelves towering over me, all around
I'm a story that someone forgot to put down
And I just want to be put on the shelf
Sometimes it seems like I can see the most clearly when I am blinded by tears
Because that’s when I'm not avoiding my feelings
It’s like I am able to see the lopsided way the world moves
The inner working grooves
That are so complicatingly simple
I wonder not when, but if the pieces will ever fall together
Being the mismatching misfit that I am
I don’t know if I am a puzzle that can be put together; maybe I was made wrong
All along,
A factory mishap
I want you to hold me as close as pages of a book that are bound to the spine
Because maybe
You could force and weld pieces of me together and get readjusted
As I fall apart and become more rusted
Like the tin man
I have a heart
I just don’t like to let on to that,
It’s actually not stone cold at all
It’s quite the opposite
It’s all mushy and squishy
Lost in forever To ever stop loving me you'd say never Then your forever's turned into never's Your endeavors turned into feathers Feathers that floated away When you used to say that you'd stay My smiles went away for miles While I'll burn my files, Of every second I spent thinking about you And every time you stayed for set after school I'll go back to my rules for fools I won't sit in my pity pools of tools People don’t realize that you're spoiled Even though this relationship you burnt and boiled Hun, you have someone who you can go to while you run I'm stuck here without the fun; I don't have anyone to protect me from my own gun The gun you didn't see, You pointed at me If you ever come back you better pack You don’t have the knack of begging on your knee; if you try to your face I will whack I can’t believe I fell for you twice You didn't catch me and now I'm paying the price She never knew or will be able to comprehend the way I loved you You are discluded from my thought stew; it's time for me to make another brew I find this poem shameful It’s also painful I was clever and never said forever I know that nothing lasts forever, not even love, Especially not your love!
The world spins too fast
It got pulled out from under me
I'm lost
Stuck in the bitter winter frost
But the seasons still change
When will my hot summer come?
I deceived
And you believed
You'll never be able to truly understand
You'll think that I'm crazy
I am not like you, and you are not like me
We are different breeds
“Next time I’ll dig deeper”
I’ll have to show you…
I don’t like to talk
My head and heart have a special double sided lock
I can feel that this is going to be torture
I don’t trust easy at all
On my door is a sign
Don’t come in, I'm just fine
I don’t know why but you I cannot read
I think you are doing that on purpose
“Happy and easygoing”
You’re just unknowing
It’s confusing
I won’t tell
I just don’t want too
Maybe it’s just because you’re new…
Dear brother,
Where did you go?
You used to wave at me when I was in the hallway
You used to wave at me when you sat in the gym because I had no friends
But you were there on the bleachers reading
I still wonder in amazement; how did you get your teacher to let you do that?
You used to save me from a teacher who needed to retire
You used to save me before bus 19 left so I'd get on the right one
Do you remember when you'd make me laugh by pretending you were in the circus?
You'd walk on old alcohol barrels,
That were once red, now pink and faded by the sun
Then you went off to college and started a new chapter
I'm sorry I put grass in the pool,
When you told me to stop
I'm sorry I threw a plastic beach basket at your face,
And caused you to get a nose bleed
I'm sorry I screamed at you while I was drawing a picture
You are really good at pushing my big red button that specifically says DO NOT PUSH!
Why must you be a programmer that finds my buttons and knows how to easily access my control panel?
I'm sorry I didn't and couldn’t give you the space you wanted to reach the planets
I'm sorry I kicked and screamed at your closed door
I just wanted to build a snowman
And have fun
I missed you then and I miss you now
Oh Brother, what shall I do?
You know that pathetic hug I gave you?
That's because sometimes I think you don't care about me
I sometimes think when you're in San Francisco California you never think of me
Of how we'd joke we'd run away to Californ-i-a
Do you really want to know what gets me out of bed in the morning?
Fucking lies
I tell myself that I'm okay
But I'm secretly anticipating, and bracing for your goodbyes
How's life?
When my life is good, it's a fake kind of good
But I'm alright
I miss being in the woods where I once stood
Was I really ever there?
I think I was born guilty
Yet I know I'm always fine
My skin is filthy
I can't sleep,
Because of a haunting childhood
I'm seriously okay
I'd give it all up for poetry if I could
I don't want you
It's too late
I'll survive
I'm forced to carry a heavy slate
I secretly enjoy it
This way I'm free
I'm still alive
So for now, as I always am, I'll just be
Never can seem to get it right
I'm giving up on the fight
Fuck it
I’ll just live a poverty stricken life
I'm done with keeping up and steady
I'm not quite ready,
To just fuck it
And live a poverty stricken life
Still falling into the same rhyme,
When life gets frustrating and hard every friggin time
So fuck it
I’ll survive my poverty stricken life
I don’t like having things shoved down my throat
But I never opted for a different route so I’ll have to swim the moat
So fuck it
It’s almost too late to avoid a poverty stricken life
I’ll be rich on alcohol
And famous in my new home, the mall
Fuck this
I don’t want that drunk life
I won’t have to do math,
To know that I'm on a poor path
Fuck everything
I’ll have to survive my poverty stricken life
Get away, get away from me
Because you can stop me from sailing at sea
And sinking into fucking everyone like a real pirate
I’ll have a poverty stricken life with a good view
I’ll ignore all the bottles filled with lost hopes and dreams
Instead I’ll collect them in reams
Because fuck it
I’ll need a way to pass time in my pirate life A life without morals or a plan
I might be able to cheat my way out and find a clan,
Of others who decided to fuck it
And ended up living the poor life, in which everyone thinks you're an idiot
But I didn’t like their ways
And I was too stubborn to get through the tough days
Fuck it
I'm already living the poor life
Was it the bread
That got to your head?
Or was it the butter
That made you stutter?
Maybe you think it was the salt
That made it your fault
I know that the berries
Didn't make you marry
But what was your deal
With the oatmeal?
Was the grapefruit too tart?
Maybe it’s why you had to fart
You gave a nickel
For a fried pickle
Maybe the pie
Was the reason that it felt like you were going to die
I mean the honey
Did seem to taste a little funny
Did the steak
Give you a stomach ache?
Was it the chicken soup
That made you have to go poop?
Or was it the icing on the cake
That made your stomach break?
I day dream because I accidentally woke up today
When reality struck noon
I was soon,
Met with what other people say
Being the drama queens that they are
They made a small thing into a big deal
And now I feel
Less than par
I'm also annoyed
With Jay
Because he has a hard time seeing things my way
It seems that he likes to avoid,
Putting himself in my shoes
As I do his
Give us a quiz
And I know who would lose
During school
He was my favorite subject to study
But now he has made my shoes all muddy
He insecurely lives on gender roles like a fool
And it messes with my side
Of knowing that I don’t need a guy
To protect me from my
Nonexistent fear of getting pied
But at the same time of being annoyed
I like being together
All cuddled up in the blankets of bad weather
And a bolt of cuteness you created for me and destroyed
I crave you
And your touch
So much
That I wish I could wear you like and outfit of blue
Its hard to be in love with the earth
When there are so many things wrong with it
Sometimes it just rains shit
And I don’t feel very full of mirth
I daydream like Walter Mitty
Because it makes life way more fun
Than it actually is when you're on the run,
In the ghetto city
Numb fingertips
Heart of hell
The wind doing flips
Finally
The darkness turning into burning light
I don’t like it with the sun
I need to live on the dark side of the planet
I've got a word stuck in my head and it weighs a ton
It can’t be taken away with any of the elements of the earth
Fire, air, earth, and rain have nothing on me
It’s attached to my life
If you unstick it from me, you'll be handing me over to death
Such strife
I don’t know what it is anymore
Thoughts going at the speed of light
I can't see them
Or catch them
There isn’t a stem
I wish I was sober
I'm lost in the fog
The fog you can't escape
I try to run out of it
Without something to stick to it is as foggy as scotch tape
An agenda wet with water molecules
Lightning thoughts tire the storm
The storm gets lost in my fog; it's thick
How do you plan on finding me, when I don't know where I am?
How are you going to get me out of this brick?
I want to feel my fingertips, have my heart be free, and have the wind die down
I want to hear my thoughts and have the enigma of the ride
Hello over there! I love writing poetry. I have a dream of becoming a writer! I hope that my poetry makes you feel like you're not in this world all alone.
