I cannot help but wonder, if I am missing out on what life could have been if only I had done things differently.

If I had told you that you made me smile, would things be different?

If I had told you that you made my getting out of bed each day worth while, would things be different?

If I told you that your eyes were the closest I had ever come to seeing stars-

and that you strike up in me...

When I was very little my favorite color was pink. Every possible shade made my small heart jump with joy and excitement. As I got older I relized the color pink was for baby’s and it wasn’t cool to be so girly. Now I was in love with blue, blue for the ocean and blue for boys. I would climb trees and play in the mud just like them. Eventually the blue morphed into teal. I wasn’t ready to embrace ...

I’ve dreamed of this place before. If a landscape could be a spirit animal, this one would be mine. I’ve dreamed of a place that knows sorrow and mystery, somewhere that understands quite caos. I’ve dreamed of being engulfed in the fog and drowned out by the water as it crashes down upon the rocks. No one will hear me scream. I will be to quite, and to far away. I’ve pictured building a house for ...

Finally I can breathe. At last I’m not engulfed in the nosies that surround me constantly in the city. At last I’m not taking in all the exhaust from the silver boxy vehicles that all look the same. At last I see real light, not the artificial type that is ever present in my home and at work. At last time can slow down, I can rest. I have nowhere to go, no time to keep, and no one who will be look...

Is it real, What I feel, Or just my imagination?

I’m living proof, of hidden truth,

if it’s any consolation

I don’t despise, I just revise my poems desperations

And in me lies, beneath my disguise, my honest proclamations

I believe, if you dig down deep

You will hear your hearts as it cries

I believe, if it’s truth you seek, you’ll find it in the skies

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

The imagi...

“Stop! You can’t go to that side of the house, you know that.”

“We’ve stayed on the right wing of this small building our whole lives, I think it would be alright if we finally have a look at what mom and dad have been hiding all these years.”

“You know they aren’t bad parents, they aren’t strict. They let us do what we want, when we want, and they they love us, they do. They’ve only ever given ...

In my mind, I see this image

When I stare out the window pane

A blurry scene of you and me, dancing in the rain

The clouds are gray

The sky is gray

And so are you and I

But when you share with me, your umbrella

Color sparkles up my eye

The streets are empty

The gutters dark

And all the stores are closed

But when you sweep me off my feet, I feel much less cold

I see in my min...

You said “you look beautiful tonight”

When you said I looked beautiful were you lying?

It was the door you held, as we walked

And it was my gaze you held, as we talked

You had me in your arms that night, while I cried

I opened up my heart that night, while you lied

He said I looked beautiful, that night

He said I looked beautiful, two times

Who knew love was cursed, September frights...

Yellow skies and bright pink lights

Gussied up girls, and boys with lies

Green thumbs, green grass, and sad green eyes

The laughter was real, but not the good times

Friends, enemies, and families who try

To smile when the scoreboard makes them cry

Good times, bad times, stolen nights

Good kids, bad kids, violent crimes

The boys throw fits, but the girls still cheer

How the hell did we en...

The red, the white, and the blue in the sky

Were blurred to maroon in my tears stained eyes

The booming explosions on that dark night

Were nothing compared to the dark in my life

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, July, I tried...
