Why does it always have to beThat other she Instead of me?Or anyone reallyWhy's it gotta be sheShe is not niceShe is not meanShe is the pastOur future is unseenShe's not your Queen.You take the blameAt every false claimYou played the gameAnd changed your name And now you know It will never be the same.But you try.Why?You try, fail, cry, and I want to know why?I am making a stanceThat you let go And give the present, the f...
Mommy, I am so very sorryPlease don't be mad when he wakes next to meI know you see the way he looks at meI know it makes you so very angryI know I deserve it when you punish me You told me he's weak when it comes to meI tried to say no like you told meI tried to be strong, but he got meanI know you pretend not to seeWhen he sneaks back to your room when you're asleepPlease don't be disappointed in meI promise to try hard...
REBEL’S ANGEL Written By: Anne Reed & Kevin Pharaoh 1A I can’t decide what I’m actually feeling in the early moments of this “one last job.” Fear and excitement sit in the stomach remarkably the same similar to the way extreme cold feels like a hot burn to the touch. This is all new to me. Crime in the upper middle class only exists on ten o’clock TV but behind these Bette Davis eyes lies the perfect accomplice. I am a ch...
It was a mistake she tries to sayShe tries to hide her face awayShrinking and cowering so afraidCrying and pleading, attempts to dissuadeBut a boot does not hear as it swiftly kicksJustice is dealt with large hard fistsHands grow heavy as punishment is doneLittle spirit broken fight is goneWatching her crumble satisfiedWith one last jab, he turns aside Alone in the dark, she sobs in silenceWhispers she's sorry full of rep...
Pretty dress dazzle and swish Long hair flow and twist Clean hands fold and hold Dark book worn and old Quiet voice repeat and plead Stale air silent and breathed Curly lashes flutter and close Black hearts cold and froze Thick doors locked and shut Smiling mouths bite and cut Sacred ritual comes to a close Pretty dress over broken soul Clean hands stained with sin Dark book condemned with Quiet voice sad and unheard Stal...
The tears are drowning me, uncried While silent screams are suffocating me inside I am dying. Missing you, the message is underlying. My chest is heavy, who knew how much empty space could weigh my body is losing its pulse with its heart so far away.... My vision is growing slowly black I say I love you, but it just echoes back I am beginning to go numb Dark and hollow, what have I become I am slowly coming undone My fail...
I’m falling downI know I’m gonna drownI’m fighting hardBut the truth is I am scarredI have tried to runBut this can not be wonI know I will failBut I will not bail I will fight till the endEven as I descend Though I grow blearyThere is comfort in expiryThis shall be my final featHolding on till my defeat
Ashes fall upon glazed eyes, long stilled Concealing blood and bones, a carnage landfill Right and wrong, causes and convictions all dead and gone Warriors from opposing sides, together rot, entirely forgot The past is covered, a carpet thick in grey Entombing all morals as it may Time births a fresh foundation, An unsuspecting generation Truth and lies trampled by innocent soles Every stride made is history as it’s laid...
Fire sparks a candle bright Small it shines against the night Cheerfully dancing in sweet innocence Leaving it completely exposed and defenseless Soon wind and rain pressure it to fade Causing it to flicker, cold and afraid Ashes drop from the shortening wick Hot wax pools and falls thick Darkness surrounds the little white light Ready to swallow it into the night
One seed blooming brightTwo petals opening wideThree raindrops watering downFour sun rays shining warmlyFive roots growing deepSix feet running bySeven giggles floating nearEight steps closing inNine breaths sniffing closeTen fingers breaking stemsZero seconds wilting dead
Through silence, we drift apartNothing to grow the connection of our heartsThough we were once intimateI fear the gap between us can never be metI hesitate to cut all ties, to finally say goodbyeThough I search the depths of my soulThe answers I seek I still don't knowMy thoughts drift back to long agoTo times, I cherish within my soulBut that was yesterday, the pastA point which we moved away from fastWe both try to hold...
As I sit and, thinkI try not to blinkTears well up insideNever to be criedWaiting, wonderingMemories skippingSticking, spinning roundA film without soundI turn, spin, twist, twirl,I trip, fall, unfurlStand, stagger, crumbleUnbalanced stumbleCollapse, giving wayShow hidden decayThe festering pastBursts through at long lastOne eye looks warySees the dark scaryOne knows, looks awayNot captured todaySoon I find my eyesLook th...
I run my finger through the sand Sending a message to whom I can Squiggles and curves make letters and words My thoughts form sentences to be read and heard I take my time to ensure I am clear Try as I might I can’t shake this fear I pour myself into what I have wrote Now that I have finished I dare to hope I know better of course I do For no one will see who I wrote this to All will look with a blind eye Smile and wave a...
