Literature Text

Kiss me,
With all the pain you've endured
My lips will take away the suffering, the memories
We can replace them with our own, ones to last forever

I'm not perfect, I never will be
But we may have a chance
A chance at the love we've always wanted
The love I know you deserve

I've waited years for this
For them to say the words
To realize this is what I need
I hope they don't pass it up

Love,
If you don't mind...
Kiss me, hold me, never let go
We may only get one chance at this...
Please, let's live it right

I'm not going to give up on you
I won't hurt you, not like the rest
You've broken me in half, torn me in two
The thing is...
You are forgiven

I'm going to do whatever I need to,
I'll try my best...
Forgive me if this doesn't happen
But darling, regardless, I'm not done loving you

The Dancer

she takes her time slowly deciding whether or not she wants to come home with me we dance so effortlessly her hand on my hip, mine on her shoulder two bodies who just belong together when she kisses me, I can taste vodka and soda and it tastes so fucking sweet this girl has my knees going weak her eyes a little hazy from the joint we shared in the parking lot but I can still see pretty clearly this girl is a riot girl and she will drive me crazy it’s not every day a girl debates sleeping with me but, I’m glad I found her even if she is a little edgy my favorite type of girl is the kind that can drive me wild th

I Am, I Want, I Will

I am young I am short I am the nerd, dork, and geek I am the gamer I am the writer I am the professional doodler I am the one who jokes and laughs with no worries I am the one whose circle of friends is becoming smaller and smaller But I am the one who is fearless I am the one who you now make fun of daily Was I ever as fearless as I thought? Do you realize what your comments do? I'm so confused Now I am the one who is unsure I want my laugh to be like it used to, Full and carefree, Instead of the quiet and worried you have made it I want to be able to be myself, Without the hate you make sure to bring I want to not have t

People who have had their bodies used for a pleasure not their own Just as it has been done to me People who are lonely even though they have friends friends who dont seem to want to reach out and help Just as I have felt People with parents who find them "useless" or "not good enough" Just as my mom has told me. People with parents who get drunk all the time making us worry when they never come around J

The Bus Stop Dialogues

I. A young man at the bus stop turns to me and softly asks "Why aren't you wearing shoes?" He taps the faded leather of his suedo-skin and his eyes smile in a gentle lilt before his mouth does. I tell him that I like to feel the earth breathe. That textures keep my mind alive and ticking like a clock. I tell him that I'm trying to grow roots so my pale limbs can twist into a tree (the way L and I talked about it in therapy). I tell him that my soul is lonely and the ground is the only thing that's always there. I tell him that bare skin is sensitive and stroking it with every (twelfth) step is a soothing form of self-care

Schizophrenia

Voices whisper in your ear; Sweetest nothings, greatest fears. All your life your friend is there, Waiting with a tale to share. Threats are blown into the air, Ever present, meant to scare. Someone tails your every move; A hidden fiend, free to rove. Disembodied voices say: Never dare to disobey. Your friend arrives with a grin, A plan in mind, a great sin. Trembling grips your paling hand. Someone whispers their command. Terrified, you call to me, Hoping I can set you free. But as you point out your friend, Wishing that this all would end, My answer renews your fear: I see no one standing there.

Schizophrenia

Holding on to a thought has always been... difficult for me. They're so rarely interesting enough to hold my attention for more than a few seconds. Quite often, I'll tune out what someone is saying because something they said sparks a thought which leads to another thought which leads to another thought... No, I don't get distracted by shiny objects. I'm a human, not a magpie. I never really cared that I wasn't listening to what people were saying. My thoughts, as cascading as they are, were always more interesting than they were. Eventually, I did away with people entirely, living in my own stream of consciousness. Even now, it is difficul

Love is...

Love is more than a feeling. It is the sound of her voice as she tells me her thoughts. It is the touch of her arms as they hold me tight. It's the caress of my embrace, that makes her so warm. It's an action. It's a promise. It's putting others before you. It's an open door. It's something you do. It's a kiss on a park bench under a star filled sky. It's the thought of her when she's far away. It's a story being written. It's the tear in your eye. It's the letter stained and smeared with salty water. It's the phone call you don't want to answer, but you know you must. It's the country you long to see. It's pain. It's a longing to forget. It'

I love you.

I wondered if you could hear my heart in your sleep, Recognize the smell of my skin in your dreams, Touch my lips when you wake up, And whisper in my ears while I sleep. I pondered all that as you fell asleep to my heartbeat, Breathing softly on my chest with one of your hands still feeling me. And when I wake up it was your lips, Or maybe it's all just a dream. But when I declared "I love you", I could feel your lips at my ear, Whispering the sweet melody, Of everything I ever wanted to hear.

How to love a girl who can't love herself.

You must simply take her in your arms and kiss her gaunt, pale cheeks and wait for her to slumber at the sound of your heart. two. On the days where she wishes she were part of the stars, tell her no. Tell her that there are too many lights in the sky and that just one would be forgotten the moment you looked away from it. Tell her that she is perfect the way she is: completely human. three. Don't let her think about the scars that no one but her can see. If she says

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
