Impossible - April 21, 2011
It seems impossible...
For me to let this go...
Feel like an animal...
Getting ready to lose control.
Take everything you need...
Take every part of me...
Give me some room to breath...
Before I lose control.

Whats wrong with me...? - April 21, 2011
Is it my face...?
Is it my hair...?
My skin...?
My race...?
My weight...?
My height...?
My body...?
My hands...?
Cause wherever I go,
I. Am Criticized.
Judged.
By my Face.
My weight.
Hurt.
By friends, strangers.
Is it aomething I'm doing...?
Whats wrong with me...?
How can they possibly......

Tree Roots - April 21, 2011
I go to
sit on,
My favorite tree stump.
Its roots surging through spots in the dirt.
Sitting glumly in my backyard.
Remembering when it once was
a full tree, and I was but
a young child.
There's a story, in every thick root.
A distant memory in each
fibrous.
Like a sacred book written
with sap....

Reaching - April 21, 2011
Reaching.
For my life.
To hold on.
Past the strife.
Reaching.
In my range.
Almost there.
Endure the pain.
Reaching.
For my soul.
So close.
Make me whole.
Reaching.
In my grasp.
All is well.
Done at last.

The War is Won - April 21, 2011
With Bloody fists and a swollen eye...
The soldier looked up, grazing the sky...
Honoring all who los their lives...
thinking of the many guns and lies.
With one stiff movement, he sinks to his kneess...
A steady, dead wind blows through the trees...
Hands outstretched, he touches the...

The Line - April 18, 2011
These things that are far beyond control
I wish I dould cup with gentle hands
And lead them in the right direction
These hurricanes
These walls
I wish I could grasp to keep them from tumbling down Onto the innocence of many men
But I am not many
If only one
These things that are far beyond my...

I Hate Relationships! - April 18, 2011
[Girl:]
I thought our love had no end, you were my best friend!
The one I kept it trill with, The one I always chilled with.
Now it seems, as though it was all a dream!
And I'm not sure if i want to wake up,
Because this time I don't want to make up.
You've reached the point of no return,
So I...

Love isn’t worth it - April 18, 2011
Love isn’t worth it…
It just leaves
You…
To think…
To cry…
To push you
Towards
The edge…
To leave you broken…
Shattered…
Like the glass
Of
A mirror…
Alone…

Truth - April 14, 2011
The questionable truth refuses to stay distant,
From the unanswerable life for long.
It seems to plant clusters of impediment,
In my way, for I have done wrong.
Some would call it their enemy,
And some would refer to it as their comrade.
Some would cuss it easy,
Some would drive along with it,...

You're Gonna Make it to the top - April 13, 2011
It seems so hard to understand,
That Why,
Things get complicated,
When you can least afford,
When you can't stand
To lose!
Whenever you want,
Whenever you chose,
That you're gonna be the one,
Who's gonna get to the top,
Who's gonna make it to the sky,
Who's gonna hold the sun,
You wanna make it to...
