Literature Text

We say we love flowers
And their sweet aroma
Yet we can spend hours
Just picking them up

We ask for their thoughts
As we pick at their petals
About if he loves me
Or he loves me not

And yet we still wonder
Why nobody trusts
When "I love you" is muttered
But have we forgot?

We kill what we love.

you're never hopeless

you tell me you feel hopeless as you talk with tired eyes- the sky drips with black pen ink poured on crystal cosmic lights your eyes become black vacuums- your words turn to somber sighs, and I ask you: on the darkest of nights, have you ever seen a starless sky?

She's a Writer

She sits at her desk Her headphones in, The world shut out. She bleeds for others As words fly from Her mind to her fingertips. She stares at the screen, At every little comment, The good and the painful. She forms her emotions Into books and poems To throw away the hurt. She's a writer, And her best weapons Are her mind and her pen.

I Am

I am single, but I am loved. I am not a genius, but I am intelligent. I am not breathtaking, but I have beauty. I am not a saint, but I am kind. To the world, I am not perfect. But for someone, I am.

"I miss you." "I miss you, too." "How long has it been?" "Only a week. How's the internship?" "Boring, but I'm learning a lot. I want to come home. I miss you." "Is the weather in Phoenix nice?" "No, it's too hot. I miss you." "Are you having fun, at least?" "Not really. I miss you." "I miss you, too, but I thought we already established that." "I know. It just...feels like half of my body is back home, sleeping in bed next to you." "I just looked under the covers. Nothing's there, I promise." "You know what I meant." "You're right, I do. I'll let you in on a secret, though." "Shoot." "I'll be gone one day, and you'll be alone.

I'm Marching On to the Nightmare

I'm marching on to the nightmare. I will not win this fight. I will not beat the creatures That plague me through the night. I'm marching on to the nightmare. While there, I'll meet defeat. I've tried to stand up to them But these creatures can't be beat. I'm marching on to the nightmare Where I'll face their toothy grins. In a fight with these creatures, No human could ever win. I'm marching on to the nightmare. My body will be ripped apart. My blood will spill onto their claws And my soul will lift and depart. I'm marching on to the nightmare. In these dreams, I can never win. These monsters killed me once more last night And tomorrow

Things Happen

Things happen in people’s lives That completely change them It might be an accident, or the loss of a loved one Or something personal Where your heart breaks into a million pieces Lost and full of pain you drag on day by day, Wondering if the hurt you feel in your soul will ever go away Life almost seems… worthless But then someone special enters and takes the pain away With a reassuring word and an eye full of love Your hearts grow together instantly Life might not seem worth living But those special people who enter the heart Make everything full of worth They fill your life with hope They fill you heart with love They fill

Darling, Don't You Dare

To the girl who skips dinner, Because her reflection hurts more than Starving. To the boy who wears sweatshirts On hot summer days, Because he doesn’t want his mother to cry over his Scars. To the boy who weeps uncontrollably Until he falls asleep, Because it’s the only way to escape into his Dreams. To the girl who spends her days in her bedroom, Because the dark is more peaceful than her Mind. To the child who gets angry, Because no one understands. To the teens who self-harm, To the ones in recovery, To the ones that just can’t do it anymore… Stay Strong. For the girl who skips meals And the boy who wears sw

what does it feel like to be sober at a party?

sometimes you want to spit out your teeth because you’ve been grinding them so hard under a diaphanous coating of crimson lipstick; but you know the floors already freckled with confetti- aluminum and glass and paper- and the eburnean pearls tucked away in your mouth are not able to be recycled and sometimes it’s rivulets on the back of your neck, droplets dripping like honey, because the rooms heating up from people swarming like bees; as your cheeks burgeon like crimson roses your oversized sweater becomes your only source of safety- maybe from the constant touch of others, as they bump around like lost passengers at a train

Stop putting words in my mouth

You shove your fingers down my throat, and insert words I never spoke, in desperate hopes to make me choke but beware: my pearly gates won't hesitate to bite the hand that feeds me
