I wrote this for someone who is very special and means the world to me.
Dancing on the edge
Stumble
And slip
Now i'm falling
Crash
Face first
Into a graveyard
Of all that remains
Of what I used to be
My smile is broken
My heart burned itself out
Only ashes are left
My sorry
Empty eyes
Watched it all die
I've been so betrayed
Crying
But they cannot see it
I am wouded
And scarred
No one can heal me
I have my secret
I am scared
Angry
Sad
Lonely inside
They do not deserve to know
Becoming the ghost
I never knew I could be
Floating through
Every moment
Night and day
Becoming ill
From the same sad
Sickening song
Constantly repeating in my mind
But something began change
My whole world shifted
You stood over me
Reached out your hand
Where did you come from?
I hesitated
To let you help me up
Back on my feet
You pulled me into your arms
I trusted you
Spoke to you
Of every scar
Each cut
And bruise
You saw clearly
Through eyes without judgement
And I was afraid
You cannot love me
When you've learned of all the pain
My heart could not take another break
I tried to turn away
You held me there
Speak softly
You love me
With all your heart
And soul
You won't let me down
We were made for each other
You found me
Please
Never leave
What lies in front of us
Is unknown
I believe your promise
Though
When you say
With me
You will always stay.

Bleed My Burning Memories
I am burning
Beneath my skin
Above my bones
I feel it pulsing through my veins
This raging fire
The blood that runs within me
Slice it open
Let it out
Pour it out
Scream the memories that torture me
Let it bleed away
I am missing you
Love
My heart is gone
You’ve taken it with you
I carved your name
Into my arm
All to keep you with me
My dear
Blood rushed out of the letters
Ad tears streamed down my face
As the burning memories
Boil in my soul
Crawl into that dark corner
Fade away
Bleed all last drops of blood
I am gone
Forever
Today

Self Destruction
I am self destructing
Caught in a storm of rage
Lost in a haze of loneliness
Struck by lightning of hatred
I am trapped in my own scary world
Don’t you see
I am screaming for help
I would never say
Then in my troubles
I found something beautiful
The one thing I loved most
You ripped away
Smashed me to the ground
Oh no!
Please do not leave
It was the only thing that kept me hoping
Kept me alive
It dies
I am sorry
I disappoint you
I am your mistake
You assume you know my soul
You have no idea
You cannot understand
What has always be hidden
Undiscovered
You have no right
To believe you know
Walk away
Leave me in my emptiness
You never cared enough
To say a word to me
I hate it all
This sinking feeling
The way my mind is terminated by regret
How my spirit is dying
And I watch
It is all slipping through my fingers
I am shouting inside
I want out
I need to get out
I cut slits in my arms
Just so I can bleed
Dancing on tight ropes
Dreaming to fall
Grab on to broken wires
So I may die of shock
Dive in to sewage filled lakes
Please suffocate me
Stuff my throat
Let me choke
Force it all up
I am burning
And I might waste away
Self destruction
Killing me
I should be dead
How can you not see all this?
How could you ignore it all?
How do you insist on looking passed me?
IM STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!!!"

Whispering Stars
I wrote this about a year ago, but I like it so I decided to post it. Please give any type of feedback.
I step out into the biting cold
Into the black night
My eyes cannot see
But my heart is still beating
And i know i have to come face to face with myself
The other me
The me that is cold-hearted and uncaring
And discovered jealousy and hatered
The part of me that shut the world and loved ones away
I must let this side of myself go
To forever disappear into the depths of the darkness
Never to return again
I let go
The clouds, that looked like giant boulders in the midnight sky now part
The bright moon smiles down at me
The wind wraps me in its arms
Swirling away wild strands of hair from my eyes
I can see again
As the moonlight embraces me in it's white glow
The stars twinkle happily against the night time sky
As if the sky is saying 'I love you'
My spirit breaks free
I know that reminising is meant to be happy
The past is over
I am no-longer trapped behind the iron bars
In the dungeon of my darkest memories
Watching the bitter-sweet image of yestardays angels fly by me
As I lay stuck, in the prision of my mind
I know that tomorrow the sun will rise and awaken the earth with new beginnings
I know that rain will fall
Washing away my mistakes
Gracing me with forgivness
And i know the stars will be there
I will not always be able to see them
But they are there
Whispering beautiful little words in prayers of hope for a more joyful future
I step out into the biting cold
Into the black night
My eyes cannot see
But my heart is still beating
And i know i have to come face to face with myself
The other me
The me that is cold-hearted and uncaring
And discovered jealousy and hatered
The part of me that shut the world and loved ones away
I must let this side of myself go
To forever disappear into the depths of the darkness

Beautiful Boy
I wrote this for my youngest brother. He's four years old right now. Please comment with any kind of feedback!
Sweet, charming, smart, wonderful, beautiful boy
Born in July
The smile of sunshine
Laughter like the sound of life
Blue eyes of a clear, summer sky
Warm, loving embraces
That make the whole world stop
And center around this little angel that fell from the stars
Make our hearts fill up with love for you
You’re a special one in every way
Without you life could never be as great
It would be so dull and dim without your radiant light
Little boy you are a blessing to us
You are a gift to everyone
Don’t ever think that you are not loved
Never believe in giving up
You will reach all your goals
You will live all your wildest dreams
Become all you desire to be
Realize how amazing you are
Never worry about pleasing others
Or living up to what you do not want to be
Be yourself
Be whoever you may be
Always do what is best for you
Be generous and kind
But do what you know is right
Do not let anyone bring you down
Tell you that you are not good enough
Or will not succeed
Live with all the life you have
Love with all your heart
Never regret any choices you make
Always be proud of who you are
And know that I, and many others will forever love you more than you will have ever thought possible.

Save Me
Any kind of feedback is helpful.
I need help
Someone please rescue me
I can’t cry out for help
I will not speak
The answer lies in the roaring silence
Listen closely to the sound of no noise
Then you might hear the whispers of those who have betrayed me
Who left me alone in regret and loneliness
My heart filled up with emptiness
The color of my eyes are fading
The blood in my veins are draining
My skin is sickly pale
My thoughts are becoming thin
Words becoming meaningless
My soul is rotting from inside out
My spirit is shattered
There’s no use trying to fly with broken wings
I’m falling into nothingness
Into a prison of unhappiness
I write my pain upon the giant walls the keep me here
Trapped in sorrow
I softly sing in a trembling voice to block out the screams above me
Yet I am not afraid of the knives that cut me in my sleep
Some say that pain makes a person stronger
But that cannot be true
For I cannot get my hopes up
They are buried underground
I am endlessly lost in time
Light becomes all too bright
The darkness is my savior
The darkness is safety
The darkness has saved me.

Mask
Please give any type of feedback.
Smiling is painful
But it keeps the tears from spilling over
I will play the roll of happiness
Pretending that I don’t cry
Block out my emotions
It makes myself seem stronger
I am not dying inside
I am not hiding away
I lie
Because, as far as they know,
I am fine
The mask is a happy face
The mask makes me a liar
The true me has never been content
My appearance is a pretty smile
Calm and controlled
Under the surface I am alone and afraid
I shall only show you what you desire to see
If you knew the truth
I would disappear
The mask is medicine
It heals my scars
At least for now
Until I break down
The mask is growing on me
I long to break free
I do not know how
The mask is seeping into my skin
Do not let me become unfeeling
I don’t want to be numb
But I cannot stand pain
And happiness feels so unreal
It never lasts
It is a big bright bubble
And it dies with a sudden “pop”
I cannot let it dieI peel off the mask
I see the world with my eyes
I am rid of the masks clutches and lies
Here is me
The real me
Take in the fresh air
Breathe.
