The luminescent moon,
With subtle sparkle,
Aglow in the black of night
Shedding brilliant light
On anything in its path
Sweet shimmering moon
A glint of hope
Hidden during the day
Seldom exposing itself
Only Shedding its gift
When all has gone dark

Is what you desire more
Than just a one time meal?
Is an eternal relationship
With a man like him even real?
Does your hormones shoot in
Different directions when you see him?
Do you enjoy departing from your roots
To be as bad as a rotten apple with him?
Is a man who grips your soft spots
And orders you like a dog [...]

so what if the only thing straight ain’t my head
at least i’m not the one who’s acting so dead
i’m colorful && silly
but my name isn’t plain like billy
so i’m darker than you
what you gonna do
this is what you don’t get
sweet heart i’m legit
i’m not fake
but not for your sake
remember when we used to be best [...]

This world is filled with hatred
This world is filled with shame
But let the love we have my friend
Will always remain
We might never be together at all times of the day
But know that i miss you and forever we will stay
Its such a busy world where time is running faster
But let the bond of [...]

As she stares
with beauty that I cant explain
her eyes that i am mostly attracted to i am now insane
such a person i did not no could ever exist
I know this is impossible but please one kiss
ignore my poetry i cannot explain how such a great catch could destroy my name

For the few who live life awry,
We must be patient and wait for the land to dry,
Those bitter and impetuous tears we have shed,
When surely our spirit was ephemeral and dead,
We set aside our iniquities, and begin to cherish our integrity,
Revelation by the fire, Like the Phoenix we rise,
From the ashes on the precipice of [...]

Drama, lies, and tears.
Welcome to the teenage years.
Everyday is just another heart break.
Feeling worthless, not perfect, betrayed.
All your “friends” end up being fake, you’re seeing just how much you can take.
The weight on your shoulders, getting heavier and heavier as it’s weighed.
And the scars on your wrist never seem to fade.
Looking in the mirror suddenly [...]

If the world were flat
my love for you would be shadows…
It would creep upon the surface
engulfing the planet in my beguile.
Depth would be the change
and it’d almost seem unnatural!
But you give my world shape
so ill just watch change and smile.

I walked alone, this I know.
All of my friends became a no-show.
I bent over backwards for every person,
To be opposed by my own assertion.
Belittled, insulted, and pushed in’ the dirt.
Still I managed to hide the hurt!
As I looked up, I heard no sound.
And since I had nothing, no one was around!
But once my dreams transform [...]

the new school was gigantic
the old school was tiny
the new school had thousands of children
the old school had hundreds of children
the new school had enormous bullies
the old school had much more diminutive bullies
the new school was cramped
the old school was less crowded
the new school had mean nasty teachers
the old school had kind generous teachers
the new [...]
