POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
I Smile
Each day with unending smiles.
Each day in undying pain.
You're a constant thought...running through my mind...
remembering only the bad, forgetting the good.
Even if for one moment you were sincere, you took my heart,
you killed "it" in an instant.
Tell me this...what did you have to gain?
You had my trust, my faith that you'd over come, my strength...
what more did you want?
It's sad to think you tossed me aside to quickly...for someone who treated
you just the same...
Its laughable that you've consumed...

Good-bye
Might as well say good-bye.
What’s the point in living, when one must rebuild
Each time they fall.
Continuous mistakes, still learning how to crawl
Given up on love, given up on trust, lost hope…barely hanging on to faith.
Lost. I’m lost.
But soon enough I’ll be gone for good.
No worries I had a heart once that did beat for you…only now
It’s in pieces, yet beating a million times more.
If you’re reading this now, this is my last farewell, I loved you its true…
Only you couldn't love me back…

No straight-jacket Needed
I’m trying to write, but nothing's coming out.
I’m still stuck, well more like, trapped in the dark.
I mean I reach out, searching...but there's nothing to find.
Guess what I’m trying to say is I’m still in a daze.
Those blue eyes are still vibrant
like the 1st time we met
yet, now also horrifying
and that's my only regret.
Honestly if we spent a little more time
I would've of grown to love you.
But you were to selfish, and closed minded...
well you pushed me away.
Maybe it was me, or maybe it was you.
maybe we...

Poison in Me
Your war is over.
You won when I surrendered
my bleeding heart at your feet.
Nothing compares to the pain
you gave me,
sharp dagger piercing straight through me.
You kept coming back,
with heart in hand
tape over my mouth.
This game is life or death,
no voice to scream out.
You kept me on
this constant trip.
Your poison in me
once had convinced me
that you could cure me.
my ignorance, you knew so well
you took over and controlled
every part of me.
I...

A Sea of Sapphire
I’d let you in that very night.
Those sapphire eyes still burn within me.
I dropped all defenses.
Your kiss still lingers on my lips.
Even now I’m invisible without your touch.
Tears welled up inside; In that one moment I saw
true sincerity in your eyes.
Sitting upon this sandy shore, the sea resembles those
deep sapphire eyes. I’d seen the depths of you; you stole
a part of me, I’ll never get back.
I’m too afraid to take that step of faith,
to seek truth in love again.
I can barely breathe.
Your sapphire eyes haunt me...

Here and Now
Your arms finally embrace me.
Seeing you face to face, now seems so surreal.
Alone together; as midnight blankets the skies;
each star burns bright with every touch.
Oh, dear God, please don’t let this night end.
Praying to be trapped in time, forever in a lover’s embrace.
Stolen kisses; hands entwined; your body pressed against mine.
Savoring this moment, I trace my fingers over every line,
keeping you locked in my memory.
Your touch consumes me, sends shivers through me,
goose bumps grace my skin. Oh, how I longed for this...

your the reason--
My heart is breaking each time you say my name.
You claim I'm your everything --
but im really a bad habit you can't break.
You have me hidden in the shadows.
Chained down.
No voice to scream out.
I watch in pain when she's in your arms.
I've become addicted to the very thing I never had;
Which was your so called "love".
In my mind, when we 1st met I never felt something so strong, love at 1st sight (I believe) but that's all it was.
Here we go again- this unending cycle of playing hide n seek. Only its taking you a lifetime to...

Your Reality
You go around acting like a man, pounding
your chest as a gorilla does. You do this when you
know, you’re no longer in control.
You come home be playing the “head” of the house.
What’s the point of playing dad now? I’m almost out the
door, but here you go tryin’ to regain the lost years
Well guess what, it’s pointless now. Your head is in some
other reality; it’s hard to snap you back into this reality
Oh great here we go again, you open your mouth and all
that comes out is, “Obey me, honor me, respect me---

Don’t f**k with me, Now.
I don’t give a damn what you think of me.
You built me up, to burn me down; as I hit the
ground, you fan the flames.
I’m so fed up, but you don’t realize what you’ve
done to me now. I’m done pretending ignorance.
You’ve kept in the dark long enough.
I’d put you on a pedestal – looked up to you;
Trusted you, put my faith on something unknown.
But you fucked with me now; for better or worse you:
shoved, kicked, beat me, thinking that’ll stop me.
Look at me now, you a’int king; I tower over you.

Mirrored imaged
I've looked in the mirror so many times,
its routine to not take notice of the person I see.
But tonight I see, a lost soul.
Tortured by fear, ravaged by anger,
beaten by pride; poisoned by love. Slowly rotting.
I've become a corpse, who's pluse has subcumed
to hell's dictating hate.
I look in the mirror and see a girl who once used to
dream of beauty, and a life so free.
Only to be captive by her nightmare.
Caged in, a slave is what I shall be.
No choice but to give in and bow down to the world's hypocrisy.

I love you...(our home)
I have been lonely;
waiting for ur arms to hold me,
you are the love that completes me,
your touch is what free's me.
Now I know how you truly feel in your heart;
how scared and alone, you felt;
how even in death you always loved me.
You told me it was our loved the guided you
through darkness and brought you back to life.
You're where I belong, you are the shelter I run too.

Amor Eterno
Te amo con todo mi corazón.
Necesito tus brazos alrededor de mí,
yo anhelo tu abrazo,
quiero tus labios para besarme.
El amor que siento por ti,
si me consume.
No puedes ver este amor que siento por ti.
Espero el día en que nos encontramos cara a cara
para que podamos ser libres para amar.
Para convertirse en uno.
Te amo con todo mi cuerpo,
espíritu y mi corazón.

Para convertirse en uno.
Te amo con todo mi cuerpo,
