Poetry: Sorted by Date

Lots of Mum
They tell me if you listen really closely you can hear the voices / I never held much creedence to that position 'till later / Mum says she has about nine / I sorta like the one she calls "Lady Blue" / 
Take Me
Come to me, sweetest Angel mine / Please take me away from myself / I don't like this place any longer / I want to fly up high with you / Please consider taking me, Devil / I hate this shell I am living 
Death, Come to me not
Would it be so wrong of me to die? / Would the sin be mine? / Or, would it be the ones who hurt me? / I tend to think it'd be mine / And that keeps me from tragedys grasp / It shines at me like a metal 
Runner
Run so hard until those thoughts pound right out of my mind / Every step blurs the past and the pain of recognizing awful deeds done / Each marker on the road taking away another sin, another wrong / Mentally 
Petty Observations?
Laughing I watch the man explain to his kid why it is good to be honest / I look at the paper in my hand and see a politician in cuffs / Shaking my head I turn the pages and view a cop beating someone's 
Box Them Up
Dive deeper my heart, and pull up your feelings / You've lost them along the road someplace / Many have gone to great lengths to destroy them / And there's only you to keep them safe / Put them in a box 
Sun, Touch Me Happy
Looking up from my hole… Sunlight streams across the sky / Laying in blackness, I admire sparkling light… Shining so bright / Reaching a hand out, I try to touch the essence… It eludes 
Love of Ryan
Crack my defenses and lay me open, he came from nowhere and found me / Touching my stains until they all fled, he lifted me up from the pit where I live / Feelings he gives me are beyond belief, once there 
Ink Utterances
First attempt is hard / Nothing will flow / So badly the words wat to come out / Stuck in my throat they hide / It is apparent in all I feel / Why won't the words come out? / Paper is so easy just a drop 
Hear What...?
Mother can you hear me when I cry? / Does my laughter surround you ever? / When I am on the street begging? / Do you wonder where I am? / Or am I still the non-entity? / Father can you listen when I talk? 
Political Verbs
Wear the robe and crown … Wave / Listen to bureaucratic nonsense … Nod / Gobble up shit with a vengeance … Smile / People in the streets starve … Shrug / Have illicit affairs

Mind Shut
Looking up at the ceiling, I noticed the cracks / Thinking of tomorrow and what I needed to do / No sounds escaped as I imagined the sea / Soon I would go and play in it and smile / Looking down at this 
You Know What...?
…you should have never left me alone / …i would have stayed with you forever / …you hurt my feelings so deeply / …i hated you for so long after / …you scared the hell 
Grand Illusions
Santa Claus came to my house every year / The Tooth Fairy left me money each time / That little Bunny hopped and left chocolates / All the Saints were praised / At nine I saw you under the tree and frowned
