  "Being sick"(sucks) 
 
 
this is my sickness 
i sit here and die 
i can't concentrate 
i can only lye here in wait 
 
for what? 
for something better, 
for relief, 
for happiness 
to be able to breathe. 
 
as i sit here and wait, 
while slowly dying, 
i begin to feel as though i am flying, 
maybe i overdosed, 
maybe i'm turning into a ghost... 
who knows 
 
all i know is that i hate this sickness, 
this illness that keeps me tied to the bed, 
i hate it and i can't wait to kill it
 

“Petals of love”

9/17/06 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

Two pieces of my heart fall into the wind and onto the ground.

Loose, exposed and unwound. 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

Flying boldly,

And full of hope. 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

They run to the other pieces that seem to have fallen,

Off of the cliff and into the wind to be blown like leaves and dust. 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

Gently,

Roughly,

Falling around one person…

Him, my one true love. 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

It’s all a matter of choice,

It’s his decision to fly up and catch me,

Only stop me,

And also his decision to simply let me fall and grow my own wings,

So I can catch myself. 

He loves me,

He loves me not? 

It’s his decision to catch,

My petals of love…

Or not…

 

“Pain” 

The rain fell… 

Searing pain… 

And she wept… 

Blood coursed down her arms… 

Still the rain fell… 

Tears dropped from her eyes…

She looked up at him…

And asked… 

“Why?” 

Why all the pain,

Heartbreak,

And broken dreams? 

She shivers now,

As she draws her last breathe… 
 

And dies in everlasting

PAIN.

 

“Don’t Leave Me Bare” 
 

Do you promise?

Will you protect me?

Will you save me?

Will you keep me hidden? 

Do you promise:

To keep me alive.

To let me thrive. 

As you leave me here,

Do you promise,

To return? 

Will you forget me?

Will you let me die?

Will you promise me forever? 

Do you promise?

Promise me that you’ll promise me.

Promise me that you’ll care.

Promise me your love. 

Please don’t leave me bare.

 

“Roses and Thorns In and of My Heart”

Roses and thorns

Bleeding hearts

Souls reborn 

Red ruby lips

Drip

With blood

Of the innocent 

Murder without consent

My life takes a turn

Only for the worse 

Judgment day approaches

We realize now

That even the mighty tend to fall

To the ground 

Tears

They roll down my cheeks

Like gentle waterfalls

Flowing down

The Rocks 

I become submerged

In my turmoil

My pain 

My joy gets

Washed away 

I don’t know what to do

I am so lost

Someone please

Help me 

Tell me

What should

I do? 

I’ve lost everything

Please take away

This terrible pain 

My heart bleeds from my eyes

The skies begin to rain

Blending with my tears of pain 

My heart stops beating

As the thorns from my rose of love

Tears It Away 

Roses and Thorns In and of my heart kill me slowly

I lay here

Bleeding and Torn

Lifeless, mindless

Alone forever
