Desperate Little Harlot
When the lives of others
Are forced down your throat
Causing you to suffocate in their despair
You are forced to show them pity
And leave behind remorse
You give them good advice
You never take
Weakly comforting them
Wondering when they would leave
You want some advice
You are a whore
A bitch
Skank
Liar
Faker
Drug addict
Loser
Seeker of attention
And a desperate little harlot
If every time I thought of you I’d get a flower, I’d forever walk in my garden.
When you dare to take a step forward but the world just keeps pushing you back.
When you face you’re fears only to have them rise back up again when you are finally happy.
When you feel like you found love then find his hand in another’s.
When you seem to be shrinking back into yourself.
When there is no one left to cry on because you pushed them all away.
When the tears just keep on coming and you cannot stop them.
When you cannot write anymore because all faith is lost.
When you see everyone else happy and think to yourself “I want that.”
When you cannot see the stars anymore.
When you just cannot take the thought of falling out of your head.
When you just cannot take it anymore…
Find him.
Forest of Lies
The trees around me
Get taller
Get bigger
The sky is gone
Covered by branches
and leaves
The time of day
is unknown
I wonder around
But seem to be coming
Back to the same place
The noises swirl
Around my ears
Demanding attention
They are harsh and
Pierce through you
Stabbing at your
Wishes and dreams
Some bring happiness
but only for a moment
It lifts you up high
As high as the branches
Would allow
And then drop you
Almost smiling
As you fall to the ground
Ode to my Teddy
You have been with me
For years
You were there when I
Cried
And there with all my
Childhood laughter
You gave me comfort
When no ones else would
You listened
When I got angry
You understood me
More that I understood myself
You and I share
Every secret
Every tear
Every smile
You will never leave me
Will you Teddy?
I held you tight
When I got you
I hold you tighter now
Your fuzzy ears
Tickling my cheeks
The years have took
Their toll on you Teddy?
You will be alright
Won’t you Teddy?
You will always be there
Smiling on the corner of my bed
Waiting for my kind embrace
I will always embrace my Teddy
What happened to your
Eye Teddy?
Did you lose it?
Did I hug you too tight?
Your cute little bow
Always manages to be crooked
No matter how many times I fix it
Your brown eye seems to kind and inviting
You can never hurt me,
Right Teddy?
You were there with
Every move
You were there
Smiling
Whispering to
Everything will be ok
My Teddy
My true best Friend
You and your cute tux
Still waiting for
Mrs. Teddy?
My Teddy never
Made me sad
You were there when
I switched schools
Always smiling
Always happy
Always whispering
“Everything will be okay”
Where did you get that
Hole from Teddy?
Is it from all the times
We played in the
Sand box together?
You were with me
On the swing
On the sea saw
On the slide
You were my childhood friend
And my high school comfort
You always held my hand
How did you lose your
Hat Teddy?
Was it from all the times we
Played in the winter snow together?
The pure white snow
Made your beige fur
Look tattered and torn
You were there when
Exams came around
Somehow whispering the
Answers in my ear
Where did you get that
Spot from Teddy?
That wasn’t from all the
Tea parties we had together
Was it?
You sat there in elegance
Sipping on earl grey tea
British ethics and all
You were there when
I had my first sleep over
You met many friends that day
Didn’t you Teddy?
Where did you
Go Teddy?
Did you get
Too old?
Too Dirty?
Too torn?
Your loving presence
Will never be felt again
You said you wouldn’t
Leave me Teddy
Where did you go
My Teddy?
To the Moon
The moon can’t shine without the glowing sun
Providing the soft light in my darkness
Sweetly whispering in my ear to run
Take your chances and don’t dare second guess
Though we cannot be together just yet
Your name on my lips is like sweet sugar on my lips
You’ve been on my mind since the day we met
You are the face that launched a thousand ships
Though your body is far away from me
Forever is your heart close to my own
Waiting for the day together we’ll be
Sadness invades me when I am alone
I promise I will fly to you, my sweet,
I yearn for the day we finally meet.
