Literature Text

A heart does not have eyes,
so it is blind,

A heart does not have ears,
so it is deaf,

But a heart does have a beat,
and it beats for you, my love.

Paper+Color

Life is a sheet of paper. When you first get it, it's blank, new, pure. But there comes a day when the paper meets colored pencils. And the paper discovers many new things. Like how dark days are black & grey; And calm days are baby blue. There are days when the paper is decorated by a warm color sunset.... But the question is - What will your picture be like ?

Who says I dont care?

I don't care who you are I don't care what you were But if you are with me, I will care about you I don't care where you live I don't care what you live in But if you have no reason to live, I will help you find your reason I don't care what relationship you had I don't care who they were with But if they hurt you, I will be there for you I know I don't care about many things I know I'm blunt and insensitive at times Just know that I am your friend and you are mine I may not care at times, but right now I do I'm not insensitive because I still care for you

I tried

I tried to count my scars, But I couldn't tell Where one began And another ended. So I tried to count the cuts, But I couldn't, because Blood smeared across my skin, Connecting them like a thin, Red veil of pain. And so I cried. I cried a single tear, because When I need to cry, I can't. Finally, I sat down, And put pen to paper, Or fingers to keys. And tried to write my emotions. But I couldn't, because I don't know how to tell the world What I feel like, When I have no right. I looked from the blood stained tissues, Across my torn body, Into my own eyes, reflected perfectly by the mirror before me. Another tear was p

Kiss Your Scars

Sharp blades to the skin Sharp darts to the heart Drink water to make you thin He tore your world apart Reflections of a former self Indelibly etched on your memory Take those thoughts and emotions and share each one of them with me I will put them with my own My lies, my deceit, my sin Kiss your scars, heal the wounds of your perfect skin Kiss your scars, heal your heart Taste your blood on my lips My heart now beats as one with yours For each other we now choose to exist

Odd times

Things aren't always what they seem Take the dice and shake it twice Come on come on Let life roll to pieces It may seem odd But you are strange Time ticks to the sound of my heart As you wave your goodbyes Forever the sun was in your eyes It may seem odd But you are strange Please take my heart as you take my hand Don't pick the dice up Cause this ain't a gamble Just one blow and we're gone It may seem odd But you are strange Take a wink and a kiss I guess this is goodbye

She Talks With Monsters

This girl never had a fear of monsters. She allowed them to rest on the insides of her eyelids, the crook of her neck, the empty spaces of her chest cavity. She had no fear, there were much scarier things in this world than darkness, clawing at her back. Living for the night she etched her dreams upon the bars of her cage whispering of centuries past because she truly missed the sun, grass on her back. Frosty Decembers have her forgetting what it feels like to love, but she knows who she is— she doesn't need the taste of cigarette ash suffocating her inside her own flesh. November skies tore open this night, ripping a hole i

Raoul's Death

All Christine could do was stand there, watching in horror as her beloved fiancé and demented tutour locked blades. She couldn't live with another grave before her. She just couldn't. In no time, Raoul was at the Phantom's mercy. He pleaded, oh how he pleaded, but to no effect. The Phantom plunged his blade through him, and kept doing it over and over again. Christine could glimpse a river of scarlett spraying on Erik's face. Now it truly was distorted. Every emotion she had felt before left her. She was left limp, pale, dead. Tears, very warm tears, trickled down her cheeks, but she couldn't feel them. She had nothing left to

I once was a galaxy~ A Poem

I once was a galaxy, But then I fell from the sky, I landed on the ground, And I tried not to cry Everybody laughed, When they saw me they would scream, They said I was an alien, And a girl caught in her dreams A few Fridays later, There were no stars in my hair, There were no nebulas in my eyes, But I couldn't really care But one fateful day, Someone saw through my lies, They saw me through a telescope, Suddenly galaxies were in my eyes From that day forward, I never gave in, I would reach for the stars, And be the best galaxy I've ever been

Literature

Ocean

My home is a warm sea Of darting rainbow scales, Bright lights And pearly laughter. My father sent me to a cold ocean Of iron blue and slate grey, Sharp claws And brooding silence. "Find yourself in the emptiness, In the bleak, roaring surf, Daughter, And then return." I fell in love with a cold ocean, Traded my blood for salt, My bones For sand and seaweed.

Literature

The Girl Who Was Afraid To Be

She speaks to me fondly of passions and talents, of guitars and stars, with such breathless intensity then stops short and apologises for speaking at all. All because somewhere in her life, someone she loved broke her heart by ignoring her beautiful words and telling her to shut up, keep it down, nobody cares. People aren’t born sad. We make them that way.

Clydesdale Alarming

Hello again, where have you been? My most beloved friend, where were you when I was you, and you were who? Not yourself, alarmingly, surprised with a landmine, handing a self saboteur the key to an armory "Blow the bridge then, pull the pin, here's the grenade, explode in dramatic fashion for me!" I was no different, you said so yourself, stockpiling pills, noose in my closet next to my belts a collection of knives and scars on my body but we diverge at the intersection of sensitivity, grit, commitment and honesty for I'm a crass bastard, crude and unusual, my skin thick as it has to be you were kind and generous, pleasant and almost too

Alone

You were alone from the start, But you didn't care back then. You were special. So special that no one could understand you. But that was special too. No one could reach you in your bubble. Then the others came. They were more special. You pulled away. While being surrounded you felt so alone. Until you were really alone. And no one could understand you. Not even you. You tried to change. But the bubble was strong. You kicked and screamed, but no one noticed. That was what the bubble was for. Then came the time when they pushed you away. They couldn't have known you are different. Are you different? you drifted away, They
