Worthless

All those letters I wrote to you
I still keep them in a box beneath my bed
 I was always too afraid to send them
Afraid that you'd think horrible of me

Your automatic love letters
They make me bleed
I kept my faith in you and you sent me
Automatic love letters
The loneliness that you gave me
The only thing that gave me hope
I tried not to believe 
That you'd make me feel so worthless
 So worthless

All the people that com and go
In my life
I don'T seem to see
 They leave me empty
More than you ever did

Your automatic love letters
 They make me bleed
 I kept my faith in you and you sent me
Automatic love letters
The loneliness that you gave me
The only thing that gave me hope
I tried not to believe
That you'd make me feel so worthless

Everything that you told me
I believed
You broke all my dreams
Made me feel like I was nothing
More than your whore

Your automatic love letters
They make me bleed
I kept my faith in you and you sent me
Automatic love letters
The loneliness that you gave me
The only thing that gave me hope
I tried not to believe
That you'd make me feel so worthless
Worthless

Your automatic love letters
They make me bleed
I kept my faith in you and you sent me
Automatic love letters
The loneliness that you gave me
The only thing that gave me hope
I tried not to believe
That you'd make feel so worthless
You made me feel so
You made me feel so
Worthless

This is a song that I'd apparently written either last year or quite a number of months ago. I hardly remember it, but here it is.

Welcome To My Wonderland

Down I fall deep into my mind
Off to Wonderland
Leaving what's real behind
I'm your riddle
That you can't seem to read
My love's the faerytale
That's too hard to believe

So broken and sad 
As the tarnish on my crown
Nowhere to go but down
I'm so caught up in myself
Nowhere to be found
No other way but down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down

I've said my farewell to what's real
Like the pain that I feel
Welcome to my Wonderland
I'm dead

Eat me or drink me
Seeing is believing
My Wonderland, baby
Is it all in my head?

My cup runs over with emptiness
I chased the hare of my innocence
I hide behind my Cheshire smile
It was so vivid but so grey all the while

So broken and sad
As the tarnish on my crown
Nowhere to go but down
I'm so caught up in myself
And nowhere to be found
No other way but down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down

I've said my farewell to what's real
Like the pain that I feel
Welcome to my Wonderland
I'm dead

Eat me or drink me
Seeing is believing
My Wonderland baby
Is it all in my head?

This poem is a parody song to Where's My Wonderland by Blood on the Dance Floor (please don't sue me). I had the idea to write it in the "Alice" perspective. And so here it is!

My Lullaby

People have always known I hurt
But they over look it
They have known I feel so alone
None of them ever prevented it

I have scars 
that they don't know about
I bleed out my worst fears
As the artificial light hits my tears

I see the blade that shines so bright
And the scarlet blood that feels so right
All my pain just goes away
All the pain that was on display

Everyone hates me
My friends let me bleed
Everything they see
Is covered by the blade I need

All that I need
When I bleed
And cry
Is this lullaby

Hushabye baby
So broken and sad
You didn't know life
Would treat you this bad 
It's time to end the pain you hid so well
So sleep tight with a knife
As you go straight back to hell

This poem is not about me being a cutting addict. I do not cut. Unless I have personally told you otherwise, do not assume I do. I just seem to have it from a cutter's perspective.

Call To The Moon

Take me Moon
For I am a child of the night
Take me soon
So I need not fright

Take me away
So I need not fear
Take me away
Away from here

Where's My Wonderland

What happened to my Wonderland?
Did it come crumbling down?
What happened to my happiness?
Did I start to drown?

What happened to my Wonderland?
Has reality hit me?
All this pain
is it real or all in my head?

Always so sad and broken
I tried to leave what's real behind
But as I fell deeper and deeper
into my mind
 I became harder to find

I've found my Wonderland
And I've left you all behind
All you see is a Cheshire smile
and the shell of a Mad Hatter

This poem is actually inspired by a song called Where's My Wonderland? by Blood on the Dance Floor. I decided to twist the song to what I thought it was about.

To The Music Man I've Never Met

Music man I've never met
You make me feel so alive
and I've never seen your face
One can only bet
how hard it is to strive
on very little in this place

They taunt me because I'm a freak
They point and laugh and whisper about me
Your music is the only thing that helps me through
Your music makes their words weak
You make me feel so free
So I guess this is thank you

Of all the things I could never say
those lyrics help me to speak
They and you help me to see there's a better way
Even if I am just a freak

This poem is for many musicians that I listen to. I've actually decided to send it to two in particular because they're my heroes. Unfortunately, I don't know if they'll get it.

Far Away/Escape

I've always been able to
lose myself in a good story
It was mostly to escape
I've always known that

Sometimes the characters
are all I have
That's why my imagination
runs so wild

I've been to places
you'd never dream of going
Places that don't exist
in real life

I can use these places
as escapes
when reality
treats me rough
They can make me forget
what I am and who I am
But only for awhile

Where's My Saviour?

Who will save
me from myself?
Will that person
find me before it's
too late?
Am I to find my
own solution?

Am I to be left
alone in my pain?
Are these demons
going to drag me
with them?
Will the dragon
keep me?

Is there a
knight in shining armour?
Will he save me
from everything
that has kept me pained?
Or will I drown in 
my sorrows?

Here's To The Kids

Here's to the kids
who sit alone on
a Friday or Saturday
night

Here's to the kids 
whose dreams
have been shot down
because it's not what
others want for them

Here's to the kids
who get by with
very little because
their family can't
afford much

Here's to the kids
who lost themselves
in music and not
drugs

Here's to the kids
who are always
in pain but keep
a smile

Here's to the kids
who are broken
and alone

Here's to the kids
who have foun
escape in other
things
 
Here's to the kids
who self-harm
 
Here's to the kids
who stay strong
in the worst times
 
Here's to you
the kids of
yesterday

What Happened?

I feel you slipping away
We never talk
I feel so alone without you
I wish I could
help you to understand
this

I understand
we're just friends
But right now
I don't know if
we're even that

I've only known you
but a short while
But I felt close to you
Now
I feel like we're
complete stangers

I don't want us
to be like this
I don't want
to lose your friendship
But maybe
I deserve to

Russian Roulette

I've got a gun to my head
I've considered this many times
I have no body now
Not even my family

What if I played
Russian roulette
by my self?
What are the chances 
that someone will hear
the gunshot?

What if I pulled the trigger?
Would my brains splatter
against the wall?
Or would nothing happen?
I guess the odds are
stacked against me
Or maybe for me

My family would greet me
at the "gates,"
right?
Or maybe I'll go to Hell
for what I've done
All the horror I've made
All the pain I've caused

Just so everyone knows, I was quite upset the day I wrote this. I wasn't contemplating suicide. Not at that moment, anyway. I'd actually been listening to Death to Your Heart by Blood on the Dance Floor and felt the need to write a poem with the first line of the song. So, no, not suicide. Just music.

You're Everything I Can't Have

I love you
You know I do
I know we should just be friends
I should learn to accept that
But I can't

You mean the world to me
You are
the only person
I actually care about
Outside my family
of course

The days I wish
I could be her
are the days I wish
I didn't exist
or I'd never met you

But then again
it doesn't matter
Does it?
I'm a no body
and you're practically a star
You're everything
I wish I could have
and what I want to be

Yin or Yang

Some people see
me as an angel
I believe
I'm more like a demon

I'm an annoyance
in my own head
I hate what I've become
A Hellish fiend
Servant and slave
for all that's evil

There are days where
I wonder what it is
that brought me
to become such a
pernicious person

But then again
according to most people
I'm a sweet person
Kind
As if I were from heaven
 
The question is
am I a demon
from the pits of Hell?
Or am I an angel
from the heavens above?

Pariah

What a shame
She's so broken
From all the loneliness
Within her heart

It's such a shame
No one knows her
She's such a sweet girl
But yet so solitary

How does she keep a smile?
Why does she look so happy?
She has no one near her
Maybe that's the way she likes it

It's a pity
Such a wonderful girl
Never loved
Always abused
Outcasted

It's such a shame
The everyone
judges a life they can't change

Hidden Rebel

You think I'm an angel
But, boy,
are you fooled
I'm not the girl
you think I am
I'm so much more
than what you think
I am a hidden rebel
just waiting to come out
You watch
your time will come

Endless Pain

I've always feared
that I will never find love
that I'll always be alone

You've always had the love
I've wanted
Endlessly loving another

My pain is here
The pain is strong
Your urges rise
Your pain is gone
But my hands are tied
with it

I'd rather lie awake
at night with pain
Than sleep tightly
with dreams of finding love
then waking up to find it
untrue and unreal

My mind is far away
Though I maybe
physically near

This poem is a found poem. Long story short, I had to write a found poem for English class and decided to use one I'd already written. This poem is just one I wrote anyway.

Blame

You're upset
I know you are
You only talk to
a select few people
and I'm not one 
of them

I won't hurt you
not emotionally
I couldn't
it's not in my nature

You're one of the only
people who have seen me
for me
I don't want to lose you
not like this

It may not be
my fault for making 
you upset
but I blame myself
just the same
Just remember
I am here for you

Broken Promises

Your promises to me
are empty,
nothing
You tend to break them

It's almost like you want
to build up my hope
and love to watch my
hopes be broken

You make me stop trusting
people all together
You're not the only
one who does it
Others have done
the same

Empty

I don't know why
but I feel so alone
The people I used to
know
have left me here
Even abandoned me
in the worst of
times
I used to feel
so loved
Now
I feel nothing
Only emptiness

From The Start

This is just another story
full of vampires, princes, and princesses
Listen close my dear audience
For I am the narrator
and this is just the prologue

Wait! wait
This is but the beginning
Continue on as the heroes
conquer the villians

But what if the villains win?
The lands will be in depression
nowhere to turn
Ah
but then there are other heroes
right?

This is but another story
with dragons, heroes, and villians
Listen close my dearest audience
For I am the narrator
and this is the prologue

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

I yell
I cry
I'm always angry
I feel myself
pushing people
I love away
I want to be alone
But I want someone near
I feel like a monster
or like I'm two-faced

I hate
then love
I cry
then laugh
I'm angry
then I'm happy
I'm such a monster

The Blade

You think that you
can say sorry and
everything will be fine
But I know that you'd
be the first to do it again
I'm not stupid
I know you
If I didn't know you
better than I know myself
I'd take you back
But that will
never happen
I know that you'd just
bury the knife
deep into my spine
again

Days We Lost

Where did the simple days go?
How did this happen to us?
When did we grow apart?
I miss what we had

The smiles faded
to frowns
The light
turned to dark
Everything that I used to know
that we had
has been lost

All the smiles
all the laughs
all those happy moments
have vanished with my sanity

I miss the simple days
Now only a black cloud
follows me
in your place

Untitled 5

 Another argument
I flee the scene
I don't wanna
be apart of
Raised voices
Thrown punches
Shattered glass
Broken hearts
Just another day
in my house
