Feel So Selfish
by me

Feel so selfish to want you this much,
You can look but you can’t touch,
And the fire’s blazing on,
And you say we’re done,
you have moved on,
But you still come around,
I keep having to letting you go,
And every time it hurts so bad,
when you want what you can’t have.

Just want to do the right thing,
Even through the cold and loneliest sting,
Wish I could be there to comfort
you when you scream,
but I’m paralyzed by everything.

You keep your distance,
But keep me too close for comfort,
Your selfishness makes you feel good,
But it also makes me feel so bad,
My heart aches and I wonder if you love me,
I love you but I can’t even hold your hand.

I see you grin like you don’t care,
I wish your heart would break,
Every time I felt you there,
I’m not gonna be there in the crowd,
Because I don’t know what you’re all about.
Or if it will destroy me,
What else would you like to take from me?

Sometimes I pretend that you really do love me,
It’s better than realizing I have nothing,
because I'm the one that's been in love,
why does it feel so selfish to want more than this?​

Everytime
by me

Does your heart break every time,
do you love me, when you feel lonely do you cry?
that's how I feel tonight,
I love you even when you say goodbye,
I love you, so let me know,
I love you, or please just let me go.

and it messes with my mind,
all the thoughts within this crime,
I love you, so let me know,
I love you, or please just let me go.​

Secret
by me

No.
Am I suppose to put my life on hold,
while you are living yours?
How long must I wait for you? Forever?

If you love me, at all...
You can be either hot or cold,
a coward or you're bold.
Distant or close.
A secret or revealed,
pick one,
but don't sit on the fence,
not with me.

because one is the truth,
the other is just a lie.

You don't know what
you have put me through,
for nine long years.

No.
I'm sorry but I can't
accommodate your fears.

I have just ask much to lose
as you do,
and I am just as afraid
as you are.

If you want me to shut up
I can shut up forever,
just let me go,
leave me alone,
and I promise I'll keep your
precious secret,
not a word,
what would be the point of
me holding on?

No more of this sneaking around,
it is cowardly.

I want to move on with my life,
I don't know why you keep trying to
keep me if you don't even want me.

The Hard Way
by me

I am sorry,
I don't want to talk to you this way,
but you don't give me a choice,
if you want to communicate different then
change it.

Maybe one time you did love me
and tried to take a couple of huge risks for me,
and that is why you are so angry and can't forgive me,
because I let you down, I pushed you away,
at least I think ...I don't know,
when you keep your distance.

How could you expect me to know all that,
I can't know what you are thinking!
I didn't even know what you were doing.
when you do everything the hard way.

You left me in the dark,
to play a guessing game,
and you know what?
It was open season for the worst thoughts,
and torments from who knows what,

how could I have known...
if it was you or not..

but I am sorry,

I'm sorry, maybe I should have been more patient with you,
I appreciate all that you have done for me,
don't think I haven't noticed,

I don't know if writing makes you angry,
but I just wanted to talk to you,
I love you, and I wanted it to be you.

Love is...Kind
by me

I think everything you've done is brilliant,
every poem you've told is a masterpiece in itself really,
there is no comparasion between the changing season of
your life time so why would I try to compare it.

It's beautiful and frightening at the same time,
I have never heard it before,
it is very different, it is
inspiring, intelligent, enlightening, tragic, and dark,
surviving with what you have.

I see genius and art long remembered
from all your hands,
for years to come,
and you have affected my life.

it's not like you need me to say it,
but I'll say it anyway,
If it brings you a tiny form of encouragement.​

I'll admit it, I messed up,
I broke your heart,
I left you,
and at the time you were telling me
you loved me back..

but it it was hard to
see it at the time.
you had to make it extreme,
and disgusting,
and you had the 'I don't care attitude'
and I was just going to have to
deal with it, like always.

I'm the one who cleaned it up
and made ugly lust look
like beautiful love,
It was my worst nightmare,
if It was love it was the worst
I had ever experienced,
but I did it because I was
in love with you.

You never gave me
dignity, or made me feel loved,
or even respected,

thats why I left you,
because I thought that I needed
to give myself a chance to have those things
that were good, that made me feel loved.

and I know you are probably
just going to say you don't care,
which hurts me,
but if you loved me,
I wish you cared,
because I love you.

Never the plan
by me

You're burning the house down
Furiously banging your fist on the door;
You keep threatening that you will put this love down,
but baby you just keep coming back for more.

Couldn't keep you away if I tried,
Locked the door but you're inside.
My love I do think you are confused,
From you, It was my heart that I tried to hide.

You say one thing, and do another,
why do you hate me, but refuse to walk away?
you keep on telling me that it's not real,
it's your contridiction that kills.

been dealt a raw hand,
my love this was never the plan,
but I deal with what I have,
although I don't have to,
I love you.

i love you,
Might as well enjoy what I have,
my sweet love it was never the plan,
nothing is forever but I will always love what we had.

'You need help'
by me

I was haunted, tormented,
even my dreams were taken.
I could feel myself surrounded by static,
and hear beastly screams, knocks,
and bangs on the wall could be heard,
and moments where I would
feel what I couldn't see sexually abusing me.
I felt like I was burning and hot on my back,
my organs were shriveling up consumed
with fire I couldn't see.

What have I done to deserve this,
maybe just got the wrong people angry,
possibly..or maybe it was because I was
Christian, or maybe another reason..

I thought if my writing was bold,
odd, insane or shocking
enough, I could scare them all away.
They would leave me alone
if I exposed them.
It kind of worked, but not really.
It was a mental survival tactic I used.

I was so tormented I took pills,
i wanted to end my life,
because I wanted to make it stop.

I felt a heavy blue orb on my head
pressing down, I couldn't focus.
people told me I did something wrong,

I took depression pills and abused them,
took too many.

There were many times
I felt so helpless, and hopeless
and without a friend.

people don't care, they are just so nosey,
quick to judge whatever they see.
They say they will be your friend,
but then after awhile they are gone.

just leave me alone.
I'm sorry if my ugly world,
ruins your perfect one.

Even if I am written off as insane or crazy,
and I end up alone without a friend to defend me,
God saved me, in all his mercy,
writing helped me cope
with all the mental destruction of my mind.

you will never understand,
you will never know what it is like.
i write, because my mind doesnt
know how else to process this.

i fought the dark back
with my poetry. It is how I got through things.​

Not meant to be

I can't be there for you,
I tried to be...through writing,
to keep you going,
but I am not your girlfriend,
It's really not my job.
I don't owe you whatever you think
I might owe you.

Besides you can't even forgive me,
I know I chickened out,
and you just genuinely hate me.
I know I must seem really crazy,
and I'm just making a fool of myself.
I feel like I'm just this crazy ex who can't let go,
and I am just bothering you.

So I will stop.
This is where I say goodbye,
Hope you will always be happy with your life.

besides someone has asked me out,
and I said yes to him, I just started to date him.
It is also time that I moved on too,
and let this go.

I am sorry I couldn't be there for you,
but I am sure you are already happy anyway.

Goodbye.​

Stitches
by me

I lied. I have no one,
save my pride.
Just wanted to take back
my life,
and leave your cold shoulder far behind.

The wounds they are cut a thousand miles deep,
stitched by time and lonely sleep.
No, I don't think I will ever stop hurting,
I will never get over this,
because you keep pulling the stitches out,
just to watch me bleed all over the scene,
and then you tell me I
will get over it one day.

What do you want from me?
reviving some dead and broken things?
Why can't you just let me sleep?
I'm sorry that my love is an inconvenience
to your reality.

I'm doing my best here,
stop messing with my head,
if my love is dead to you,
then nothing more could be said.

Every time you come around
you take out a stitch worth healed years,
stirring up waters into chaos,
reviving things I tried to lock away.

No, love doesn't melt away,
it's always yesterday is today,
and I felt your aches of pain,
so what do you want from me.

These stitches are breaking,
every time you reach out for me,
and you say you're done,
what do you want from me?​

There's two kinds of people in this world
when you boil it all down.
You got your talkers and you got your doers.
Most people are just talkers, all they do is talk.
But when it is all said and done,
it's the doers that change this world.
And when they do that, they change us,
and that's why we never forget them.
So which one are you?
Do you just talk about it,
or do you stand up and do something about it?
Because believe you me,
all the rest of it is just
coffee house and ---​

Get over it
by me

Just leave things alone
that you gave up on,
I don't want to hear your excuses,
or that you're heartbroken,
over something you never fought for.

just get over it,
and let me go.
so we can both move on.

Shut up and
Just get over it.
because I'm over you,
and I'm over it.

so get over it.​

Run For Cover
by me

O' to spend an hour in the sun with him,
it makes me drunk with love.
Watching as his figure slowly
becomes a fuzzy haze;
staring out into the woodland trees.

Where shall I hide from
my lover, so that his heart
cannot find me?

Playful as the summer breeze,
I'll find shelter under the cover of shade.
Yet when he becomes lost, down and burdened,
I will surprise him with my kisses and
he will run for my loving embrace.

There we lay within the lilies,
during midday,
two flowers soaking in the sun,
lovers do share their love,
as petals kiss and touch.


-end-
