POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Possessed
Just a surge,
Then a tidal wave of emotion
Oppressing.
Possessing.
He’s MINE.
I never gave much thought about it
Never dreamed, never hoped
Never gave a shit
It's just tying my own neck with a rope
And hanging myself gladly
But when I saw the black haired baby-like lady
Lady-like, hazy smoke surrounding her
Him so close to her
My body felt like hot, hot crimson
Green eyes will catch my browns
We bring the whole forest down
And he owns me, he knows
Devilish smirk of the devil himself
I’ll...

Seventeen...Dancing Queen...Dancing with QUEEN
Chocolate cake
A "17" candle
Ariel cake topper-
The princess without legs
Dreaming of ballerinas
In a music box
Oh grace, Oh grace
You can dance
You can jive
To ABBA, sweetie
This is the 5th, the day
You share with Freddie Mercury.
Feel alive!
Life is the music
The mania and pits
Of bad despair
But when you sway
Nothing can compare
Listen
Doesn't matter if to pop crap
Or rock hits
Just sway
Years and tears and tears and fears.
Life is lived when you dance to it.

Just For a While...a picture of mine
Just for a while,
I'll be out of the dark
You'll see me
All my scars and marks
Just for a while,
We'll see eye to eye
You'll know,
You'll see if I lied
If you missed me,
I apologize
I will show myself
Just for a while
Until the day of my birth is done...
I'll be out of the dark
You'll see me
All my scars and marks
Just for a while,
We'll see eye to eye
You'll know,
You'll see if I lied
If you missed me,
I apologize
I will show myself
Just for a while
Until the day of my birth is done...

Everybody Leaves
Everybody leaves.
I was a fool to hope,
A fool to believe...
Still, everybody leaves.
It doesn't matter if it's Ana or Mary,
Not if it's Jimmy or Jerry,
Even Zeus, Edward, Miles, or Freddie
They will not stay.
Not if you're not steady,
Not if your mad or crazy
Even if it's John Doe, Prince Charming, or just Steve!
With me
The bitter truth is
Eventually, everybody leaves...
I was a fool to hope,

Still, everybody leaves.

Not if your mad or crazy

365 Days as thepositivelydark
Living life under pretense
Fake smiles, bottled up passions
Stunted interactions...
Make no sense
Set your life on fire
Seek those who fan your flames*
I went deep underground
To find a new name
thepositivelydark
An opposition
A contradiction
I guess that's what I am
A Pearl from the East
Phoenix fire inside
A secret that I hide
I bravely shout as mist
And here, I am loved
Here, I am just a dream
On a sparkling shore, midnight gleam
No Earthly scums, it seem...?
Only kisses from above

Red Read
No voices, but a screaming in my head
Poisonous thoughts like lead
Dreams left in shreds
Too much meds
Dread.
I tried to tell them.
They fled.
When the moon had departed
And the sun's watching me instead
They'll find me in my bed
Covered in red
Wounded
Pale and bled
Dead
And everything that I said
Will only be words you read.
I'll be gone.
Go on.

Broken Bones
I wish I could write a song
For you
To sing along
To
When I'm dead
But the melody's stuck
Inside my head
Something made
By the monsters beneath my bed
Broken Bones, do you hear me
As words enter my head
And memories escape me
Broken Bones, do you miss me?
I find the sun offending
The dark oppressing
And everyone disgusting,
That I am so envious of them
Broken Bones, you're not really broken,
Are you?
You're hiding
Under flowers in the garden
Leaving us weeping
Searching for you
...

My Deadly Thoughts - Trigger Warning
Asphyxiation
Triggered fixation
Things I don't want to mention
But I'll mention anyway
A rope
Or a belt
Who cares anyway?
I'm dead
Sleeping pills
Or lithium tablets
Who cares anyway?

A blade
Or a knife
Who cares anyway?
I'm dead
A cliff
Or a building
Who cares anyway?
I'm dead
A car
Or a bus
Who cares anyway?
I'm dead
A lake
Or a sea
Who cares anyway?
I'm dead
Burned
Or buried under
Who cares anyway? ...

Jailbait
They're loving her
Like she's Lo-lee-ta
More of sin of skin
Than soul
Age of sweetness
But no, you won't witness
Her singing, I'm just sixteen
If you now what I mean
Do you mind if I take off my dress?
Her next birthday
Would only make her
An almost woman
And you want to have your way
Good luck, daddy
Hope you won't end up
In jail
Sorry, daddy
Such an epic fail
Not her fault that
She looks like she's from Disney
With the airs of being 20 ...

White Pill
White pill
Meant to make me heal
Fix me
Save me from myself
Release me
But with every twinge,
Every clench
Every stab of pain in my belly
I feel like it's slowly
Killing me
Starting with my kidneys.
Just with 450 mg daily.
Oh joy.

Nothing Like a Realization the Morning After
In a make-believe world
She'll wake up
Alone on the bed
After the night she bled
He needs to tend
To his roses
Leave, like the Little Prince
After they made the rules bend
Shocked and sore, surreal
Memories of tender moments
Of tender touches assault her
Like it was all for real
But an Earthly girl
Perhaps do not belong
To planet B612
Takes lightyears to carry a song
Realization hits like a mighty slap
A cold crimson vision overlaps
All the wrong things in all the right places
All of his different...

Burning Thoughts of A Subtle Spitfire
We were walking
Walking along the blood
Red and white lines
Circling
The shock of green
In the middle
Sun setting shining
At the two of us
And him smiling
That smile once more
A smile
Wanting more
He told me to
Look up the sky
Clouds stretching out
Like fearless wings
It was laughs
And smiles for a while
Knowing looks and books
And poetry lines
He said I looked
Like that Disney girl
Red lips
Poison Apple
And it looks like he wants mine
Forbidden as it is
As hidebound as...
