Your Former AngelWatch these broken wings,Your Former Angel1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
As they fall dawn to the floor.
I'm sorry, it's just that,
I'm not your Angel anymore.
See the blackened scars,
That stain this battered frame,
The marks of pure self hatred,
Oh, Isn't it a shame?!
See the rope burn round the throat,
That you once so gently kissed,
But you don't really care – do you?
This Angel won't be missed.
Don't you see you caused this,
By feeding me your lies,
Now you can stand and watch,
As your former Angel dies.

One thats set to kill,
You set me off,
And trust me...it will.
Ive got a monster inside me,
And he's my best friend,
You even look at me wrong,
Trust me...your life will end.
Ive got a monster inside me,
Slowly eating away my heart,
If you stab my back,
Trust me...there wont be time for your screaming to start.
Ive got a monster inside me,
Yupp- its the real deal,
You tell me to kiss your ass,
And trust me... your ass will be its next meal.
So You Pray For Me?You say you pray for meSo You Pray For Me?1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
You pray for my well-being
Then why do you tear me to shreds with unspoken words
With actions that could make souls falter and crumble to dust
I'm sick of your holier than thou life
I'm sick of you retracting your words, your promises
I'm sick of you saying you wish me well
When you're handing me death
I hope one day you get what you have given to me
I hope one day you feel this heartache
I hope one day you feel these emotions I've become to know so well
The emotions that tear through my chest and put a death grip on my heart
The emotions that make life an overrated thought
I hope one day you find what you

Where were you?Murky eyes can't smile at meWhere were you?1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
As your mouth twists up its lies;
Strain to think but you wont see
how these lies hurt me inside.
I shouldn't care, i paste my grin on;
This selfishness i hide.
Never want to be a burden
So Flaws control my Life.
Sit and watch my fantasies
Before they all burn down.
I talk at you, you try to see
But you'll never understand.
It may be true to say the least,
You're not an honest man;
So when your Faux love finally ceased
Not a tear was found.

Why my heart races when you're near...
The way my stomach does those little flips...
You'll never see...
How much I need you...
Just how much you hurt me...
You'll never feel...
How it is when you leave...
How worried I am when your not here...
You'll never feel...
The want for your arms around me...
My desire to be your's...
You'll never see...
The tears...
Any desperation on this face...
And most of all...
You'll never know...
Just how much I love you.
StillThoughts spill from strangers ears,Still1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Falling slowly towards the earth.
There is nothing worth seeing,
There is nothing worth feeling.
But hearing your words
Stops the bleeding.
Words are carrying to the mountain's peak,
Crossing the birds and the streams.
There is nothing above.
And nothing below.
But the space is not empty
And void.
My world is crashing,
Towards the cold, dark abyss.
There is no light,
No warmth to be found.
Except for the beating of you heart
As I whisper "I love you".
And all seems to be still once again.
Love Can Not LastLove Can Not Last2 years ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
Love can not last
The feeling leaves fast
You will find
That it is a waiste of your time
If you try
You will fry
Into the greases of depression
Hate and misery will rise
Now that you have opened your eyes
Now you can see through her lies
It is time
You will find
That you need to grow up
And see that she is one big slut
Come on and see
And look through your misery.
I can(not) forgive youI can forgive you for leavingI can(not) forgive you1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
But not for coming back
I can forgive you for not loving me
But not for pretending to
I can forgive you for lying to me
But not for lying to yourself
I can forgive you for saying you love me
But not for leaving me the next day
I can forgive you for dashing me to the ground
But not for still leaving a little hope
I can forgive you for breaking my heart
But not for three times
The truth is I wish I could
But I cannot forgive you at all.
(And neither I forgive myself.)
Don't Let Them WinI think that you're beautiful,Don't Let Them Win1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
In many more ways than one,
Never believe what they tell you,
Don't let them blind your sun.
I think that you're a winner,
You certainly won my heart,
They're the real losers,
For tearing you apart.
I think that you're smart,
Way smarter than they are,
Because you don't need to torment,
As you're better than them by far.
I know that you won't believe me,
That you think I'm just letting you confide,
But believe this now and never doubt;
You're stunning on the inside.
''Perfect'' "Perfect"''Perfect''1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
She walks so confident and prideful
Like she is the hottest in the world
But honestly she should feel shameful
She starves
She stays away from carbs
She dresses like a whore
The boys say shes so easy to score
She is nasty and mean
Other girls are so jealous
Thinking she's fat
But they all say shes perfect
And noone can argue with that
But why?
Should this idea of perfect
Make other girls cry
Is it even healthy
Forcing yourself to puke
I mean really, I don't get it
What, does it make you look wealthy?
Do boys really find all those girls beautiful?
That they girl they find 'hot' or 'sexy'
Is that even provab
Sixteen"who was she?"Sixteen1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
They whispered.
Her ears burned.
Thoughts tossed about her room.
On the walls.
All over her floor.
The corners of her bed, where the sheets met the ground.
She could lightly trace her ankle bones.
Circling continuously, a soft paint brush
... against her soft skin.
She was a girl the age of sixteen.
With paint stains across her body of bruises.
And blood that pulsed in vivid colors across her body.
She was stuck somewhere.
In-between.
Maybe...
somewhere far.
or somewhere close to home.
Scars buried.
Underneath shirts and scarves she wore around her
long
and fragile neck.
She knew she was growing, but

Thanks To YouI love your presence.Thanks To You1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
And now…
I want you.
Not your body.
But your arms around me.
I need you.
Not for a release.
But for comfort.
I crave you in bed.
Not for love making.
But so I can sleep soundly.
I want your lips.
Not against mine.
But to whisper encouragement
Say my name.
Not from pleasure.
But from the heart.
I love your hands on my back
Not for the sensation
But because of the wings you give me.
You make me want and crave
Being around you simply fills me
These emotions are all because of you.
Because of you…
I want to keep trying.
All because you exist.
I Could Be WorseWould you rather I was a whore,I Could Be Worse1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
Or a bore,
Or maybe something a little more,
Than that which I am?
Would you rather I was a bitch,
Or a witch,
Or a scratch for you to itch,
Instead of being me?
Would you rather I was a liar,
Or a crier,
Or someone to lift your pride higher,
As opposed to this pointless screw-up?
Would you rather I was a sheep,
Or asleep,
Or simply less of a so-called creep,
In the place of that who I am?
I don't care about perfect,
I don't care about being liked,
I just want to be happy,
I want to be more than crappy,
In a world full of Me and You;
Them and Us,
When there should be no fuss,
Because we a
LoveLove2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Love?
What is love?
Is love the way he smiles at you from afar?
Is love the way you shyly look away?
No, love is more special.
Is love the feeling you get when your eyes meet?
When you get butterfly's in you stomach that wont go away?
No, love is more intimate.
Love is when you can't go a day without seeing or talking
To that other person.
Love is When your heart akes whenever that person is hurt
Love isn't something you can find in a cereal box,
Or pick up off the street.
Love is deeper than that.
Love is a connection like no other.
So what is love?
One More Mistake.With every word that I sayOne More Mistake.1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
With every smile I fake
Every moment I live
I'm making one more mistake...
All the tears that I've cried
Have fallen unnoticed
No matter how hard I try
Nobody will know this...
Every friend that I've made
Everything I create
With every door that I open
I'm making one more mistake...
I hate what I've done
And this person that I've become
I hate these scars on my wrist
Is there no ending to this...?
With every beat of my heart
With every breath that I take
Every day I wake up
Is just another mistake...
A Little GirlDon't cry, little girl. It'll be alright.A Little Girl1 year ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
I know it hurts now, little girl, but I'll hold you tight.
It's hard right now, I know. But your hurts WILL go away.
It'll get better, you WILL see another day.
You'll grow up and things will seem worse.
You'll think of your life as not a blessing but a curse.
Don't take it out on yourself, though, my girl.
Don't cut, don't starve, don't hurl.
I know it's hard sometimes. I know they've hurt you.
But I'm here for you, and I'll never desert you.
I know, your thoughts are dark, you're hurt and scared
I know, when things happened, it felt like no one cared.
I've been there before, little girl,

And turn on the TV,
Even though I'm not watching I leave it on,
It's the news, seems like another fight,
Why's the world so violent?
I take my time going to sleep,
I close my eyes,
I see someone's face,
I think I recognize her,
But I can't remember her name,
Who is she?
With eyes like that it must be a sign,
But I brush it aside,
Even in my fantasies,
I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of showing my feelings inside.
What's wrong with me?
My life isn't that bad…
What's wrong with me?
I won't accept that I'm sad…
I'm not, am I?
Am I? I don't know…
The next day, I go to school,
I hear laughter,

Prayer of the broken heartedLove like water slipsPrayer of the broken hearted1 year ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Oh impossible to hold
Through these reaching fingers
Trickles burnished gold
Love, like a butterfly
Oh impossible to hold
To seize thy beauteous wings
Risks dangers best untold
Love a fleeting shadow
Oh impossible to hold
Crushed and broken heart
Why must thou be so bold
Love, like a moonbeam
Oh impossible to hold
Thou art full of beauty
yet always leave me cold
Love will thou not be sunlight
And grace my life with day
bring the healing touch of warmth
And for a season stay?

Don't watch the falling pain
If you can't see me dying
I can say it's only rain
Please turn your head away
Don't watch me as I break
Then we can both pretend
It's just another heartache
Please turn your head away
Let me keep some pride
Pretend it isn't happening
This hemorrhage deep inside
Please turn your head away
Don't open wide those arms
Reject me don't invite me
Reaching out will do me harm
Please turn and walk away
If you love the dam will break
So many years of hurt
How much sobbing can you take
Please turn and walk away
Just like all the others did
Then pride wont let me fall

The Will to LiveIt's like fallingThe Will to Live3 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
Falling into an dark abyss
You cannot see the bottom
But you know it's there
When you crash against the earth
You see nothing
Nothing, but the pitch black darkness surrounding you
You are all alone
For some reason you have the will to live
But why?
You are certain you can't escape
But yet survival is important to you
Bruised and broken
Unable to see anything near you,
You won't survive
But why not know?
You rather live alone and deserted
Instead of dying now
You lay crushed on the cold earth,
Waiting for death to find you
EmptyDarkness surrounds meEmpty3 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
The cold emptiness of my heart and home is inevitable
I sit alone on the lifeless floor staring at the outside world
Wishing, hoping
That someone could see me through the quiet exterior
No person nor thing peers into the gray fog which covers me
I can hear the continuous beating of my neglected heart echoing in its own steady rhythm around me
Lonely and silent is the life I live, the life I didn't choose

My whole life seems to be in disarray.
Suicide, suicide, take me tonight.
This is my life; just a sorry plight.
Suicide, suicide, hang me by a noose.
I'm nothing but a useless excuse.
Suicide, suicide, take me fast.
There is no one that will be left aghast.
Suicide, suicide, let me be free,
and I'll write everyone a note from yours truly.
Your Beck and CallYou don't treat me with respectYour Beck and Call1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
So why do I give it to you?
You see me as garbage
While I see you as a king
I am at your beck and call
I've been nothing but nice to you
Giving you everything you always wanted
So when you wanted me out of your life
I reluctantly had to oblige
So you could be happy
I know you didn't read what I wrote to you
You probably threw it in the trash
Because you've forgotten about me
But I haven't forgotten about you
Not a day goes by where I don't think of you
How much I miss you
I miss us
Being friends or more
Sometimes I lie in bed all day
Too depressed to get up
But despite how miserable I may be
