Pray for me today
As I go onto a stage
I just need His peace.

I never thought that
I could be competitive
Until I came here.

Oh! the sun and
Oh! the moon
Dancing around the
Earth so soon.

My mind is a mess
Swirling dizzily around
'Till I fall over.

Churning deep inside
Fear and anxiety strike
Overcoming me.

Somewhere far away
There's probably a pumpkin
With a happy life.

Oh guess, oh guess what
You'll never guess
I asked if she needed
Some help—she said yes!

They creep up the walls
Vines to trap some wild bird
And encroach on you.

An owl hooting
Right outside of my window
Makes my heart beat fast.

Before the dust fell
Under the pastry white moon
You were always weird.

Fire bore me
Death cannot keep me
Ice remade me
I am Free.

Oh look I just did
Something you never could do





I licked your elbow.

Don't make promises
Promises just become lies
When you are this young.

If my eyes were red
You took my face in your hands
And believed in me.

Tell the tale to thousands,
Ignite independence inside;
Fly for freedom, fraternity
And all America!

Grrrrr aaaaann aagh aaaaahh naah,
Aaaang n' aghhh ahh grrrr aaaagh naaah,
Grrrrrr aaagh aan naaaaang aaggh!

I am far too tired:
No time for foolishness now,
Stop pestering me.

Up and down the stair she goes
Whither all a-wander
And whether she blames me or not
It's my fault her time is squandered.

I came here for you
And yet you're walking away
Can't you see My love?

Come here
Accept the unaccepted
They need someone to follow
And you're the only one elected.

Toting around his portable sounds
A big 'ole bus with Diverse City
Tonight he's got his eye on it
With his rap rhyming witty.

Hands smudged from the filth
Stuck down in his fingernails
Worked to Impress her.

You saw for a moment
The girl she truly was;
A glimpse at her twisting soul
Foreverafter gave you pause.

Grey means I'm tired,
Black means depressed,
Turquoise means I'm happy;
Just look at how I'm dressed.

Air isn't life force
I am sustained by Jesus
Lord, help me today.

Don't let me get down
It's easier than breathing
And living just hurts.

You won't leave me be
Stealing my contentedness
Stop making me care.

Confusing poems
Are too hard to really read
So I stick with these.

An evil arrow
Pierces my soft vocal strings
Homicidal cold.

I'm going to bed
Because nothing makes sense now
So I'll see you soon.

"Are windows open?"
Said he, "I'm cold."
"Only the windows,"
Said I, "of your soul."

You use your commas
The way a Southern woman
Puts sugar in tea.

It cuts me deep and to the quick
To think that you had fun with it
When all the while it was my own
My heart you played with, not a stone.

Cross my heart, I hope I'll die
I try to look you in the eye
I do not love you anymore
And I may break the oath I swore.

You said that you'd do
whatever it takes,
But all that it took
just made my heart break.

I see you sitting there, wondering
How will you ever go on?
'Cause you can't get over that one thing
It's been with you for so long
 
You thought you could be brave enough
Thought you could stay strong
You tried but you couldn't save yourself
How did it all go so wrong?
 
I see you telling yourself to try, try
You say you're better than this
I see you break down and just cry, cry
But you don't have to do this
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
Every day you wake up and say
You're going to get it right
You're going on your own strength
And it brings you down every night
 
It's getting heavier all the time
You didn't know it'd hurt this much
But you just keep saying you'll try
Even though you're giving up
 
But I see you in your pain
You can give up and know I'm here
My voice has always been saying
That I've always been near
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
So when the lies tear you down
When you let them speak
Don't be afraid, I'm always around
Child, just hold onto Me
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
Nothing can do that.

Oh
oh oh oh
Ohhh
Oh no,
It's back again!

I was everything
To you, I'm sorry I'm not
Anymore. Truly.

Breathe, just breathe,
And tell me what you see;
For I can't tell what lies ahead:
You must go on before me.

He makes me laugh, and
Even though he isn't loud
I know what he means.

Sometimes you sense them
In the dark places of night
But now face to face.

I've taken to carrying a pencil around
Whether I sit or stand
For it seems exceptionally true these days
I can't think without a pencil in hand.

You're more than you think
You know you can do better
But you can soar, too

Giving every chance away,

Thinking he could hold out—

no.

I am proud of Ninja Day—
March the thirty-second.
And you guys that dare to say
"It's April Fools" I will threaten.

I jumped real ******* concrete
I guess that wasn't the best
Now all my insides feel jammed together
I just want to go home and rest.

Agh, get out of bed
You stupid girl, you'll be late
And you need a bath.

When you think about wanting to give up,
Just remember so did your neighbor Fred
Fred's dead.

Give up
It's what they mean
Not what they say.
