I open my rib cage
That is made to protect
My elemental soul,
But I have a yearning
To become vulnerable.
My heart is transparent:
Embellished by fault lines
That cause such needless grief.
I'm stifled by choice and
Erroneous belief.
So...

OK. This is my first poem, and probably not my last. Hope you guys like it.
He is mine, and I am his.
This is the bond of all that live.
But ours is special.
It is our own.
It can be felt, when we're alone.
I know you are outt there...

First they pick you as their victim child,
they new you were hurt, never once smiled,
they pick you as weak, to fall for their lie,
You are the child they will seduce and buy.
They make them your friend you learn to trust,
Made sure...

There standing there confused, the don’t understand,
How a girl like me, can find it so hard to stand,
I had everything I need; I had everything I want,
So how is it now that it’s myself that I haunt.
The cops are there waiting, the...

The sound of her heart beating...as I lay my head between her breasts...As I gently stroke her hair and give her lovely face a gentle caress...To feel the warmth of her skin on my face....I just hold her... and sigh.The passion of loves...

Air has never felt so good, as the air I breathe with you.
Summer breeze on vibrant leaves a freedom's dance they blew.
The soothing cool between our toes, dangling in the creek.
My ears rejoice upon your voice with words of love you...

No faith, have I, in you my friend
Fine words are yours, with little flesh
To compensate for lack of feeling
To counteract the foolish mess
Of which we both have made our place
And I, alone, do suffer here
The endless nights of running...

A chance meeting
never uttering a word
afraid to speak out
just waiting to be heard.
Now, a song plays
I hear it deep within me
because you've awoken
my sweet melody.
Now, a dance begins
my body gently sways
because you've brought back...

Wandering, unknowing of surroundings, just plain Lost.
My sister is gone. She ran as far and as fast as she could. She never coming back. I tried to help her, God knows I tried. I tried giving her advice. She just kept running. Ending...

Words they tumble in my brain like many loaded dice... Some are sweet and tender ,others not so nice.Long ones, short ones, quick retort ones ,Words that sing with glee. Words that tell a story,they all belong to me .Some of them I give...

I said no.
He asked again with the eyes of a doe.
His friend wouldn't let it go.
I said no, I said no, I said no.
I repeated until he conceded,
"let her be if she won't smoke"
As if getting me high was only a joke.
It was only harmless...

Chaos, hunger, excitement.
Amimals stalking their meals.
Throw the food, act like pirahnas.
Mangling each other for scraps.
Bellies full, it has quieted down. For now. Feeding time at the zoo, never dull. Exciting, exhilarating...

I would give up the Skyward Sword
I would defeat the Greatest Sith Lord
I would steal TMNT’s pizza for you
I would blow up a Star fleet Crew
I would give up on saving our Earth
For you, I would miss my first Piplup’s birth
I would...

As I lay on my bed past my bedtime,
Thinking about my life as a whole,
I drifted away into a light sleep,
I dreamt of myself as a child,
Waking up in the early hours of morning,
Dressing up quickly and hurrying to school,
Doing my...

I wrote a nerdy/geeky Valentine's Day poem for Josh ;)
Charzards are red
The Tardis is blue,
just like my heart until I met you,
I would take an arrow in the knee for you any day
I would travel to middle earth just to hear what you...

Push and pull, sweaters made of wool – heavy with the rain's despair, my fingers scratch my unwashed hair
In and out, hear their joyous shout – eager to destroy the world, my eyes locked on a blue-eyed girl
The mud that wraps around...

You never even knew me. Yet you claimed to see right through me.
But I'm more complex than that
You can love me, or you can hate me. You can easily berate me.
Though that effort will fall flat
I never promised nothing. Yet you're...

Through out the day
Your in pain
Begging for help
Yet no one hears you
Your dying inside
Your not alone
Please don't go
We'll miss you...
Everyday
You wanna go
Looking at the scares you've made
From the pain you suffer
Keep in mind...
