I'm Not the Marrying Kind

I'm not the marrying kind.  I have stones in my hair instead of flowers, And a rosebush of thorns is more poignant to me.   I'm not the marrying kind.  My words aren't pretty or wise, And I can't sing about anything but a broken heart.   I'm not the marrying kind.  I am the sort of damaged you see in an old recorder, And the kind of old in an instrument that breaks into a billion pieces at a touch.   I'm not the marrying kind.  Neither neat, nor tidy, nor correct in my behavior, And yes, I did in fact tell you to fuck yourself.   I'm not the marrying kind.R

"I wish you would give it back to me." "Why? You'll just break it again." "It's my heart. I will do whatever the hell I want with it." "Yeah? Well, you take terrible care of things that are yours." "Fine. Keep it. I am equal parts concrete and soul anyway." "You say that, but I'm not entirely sure that you are. I think you're deep, and fragile and broken, and that makes you beautiful." "Again, concrete and soul. " "I wish you wouldn't make this so hard." "So hard? I'm making this easy. You gave me dreams of half feathered swans and a stupid house on an endless beach and a city made of an ocean, and now you're taking it all away. But a

Body Speak, Mouth Don't.

"I need a favour. You got a minute?" No. No I don't. My heart feels ripped out of my chest and trampled on too often. My ears open to screams in the morning. My eyes close crying every night. My mind always turns dreams into nightmares. My lungs contract too soon for me to catch my breath. My worries far outweigh my years. My brain feels overworked, overwrought, so tired. My stomach cramps every night and I curl up in pain. My knees weaken often but I'm still standing. My mouth goes dry and I can't speak. My hands dampen because I have too much to think about. My bones feel weaker than they ever have before. But I don't think it

People are ugly.

Listen to me There are ugly people out there Not just on the outside But on the inside too There are horrible people Who are pretty And there are ugly people Who are perfect So when you say 'everyone's beautiful' That's a lie There are ugly people out there Inside and out

Just me.

You always say that nothings ever good enough but you need to stop comparing me Because: I'm not her. I'm not him. and I can't be what you want me to be. I struggle, ad I struggle to find that perfect place that's just mine. But I know that if I do nothing will ever been good enough for you. I'm not her. I'm not him. and I can't be what you want me to be. I can only ever be just me. Some nights I wander, wondering if I'll ever be good enough. But as I look upon the sky there's nothing there asking for me to change. So I'll just realize that I can only ever be just me. Because, I'm not her. I'm not him.

Jesus

'You don't believe in Jesus?' 'No' 'What can you believe in?' 'I'm Hellenic polytheist' 'What?' 'I believe in the Greek Gods' '………….' 'Zeus…. Aphrodite…. Athena…' 'How can you not believe in Jesus?' 'I just don't' 'Its not real' 'What?' 'Those are just myths' 'And what do you think Christianity is?' 'The truth' 'My gods are real to me' 'They aren't real' 'Dude, are you serious? Religion is based on faith.' 'Not this, Jesus is real.' 'No Christianity is based on the faith and trust that Jesus was real. Show me one piece of evidence that Jesus lived.' '…' 'That's what I thought.'

Is that too much to ask?

There was a new boy at school. He sat in the back, all alone. The teacher was doing roll call. "Jessica?" The boy froze. "..Jessica? Is she here today?" The boy raised his hand shakily and muttered quietly, almost scared. "Here." What sort of name was that for a boy? Jessica? She must be a girl, then. At lunch she was alone, crying. Why was she crying? Because everything felt so wrong. Her name didn't fit her. Her body didn't fit her. She was a boy on the inside. Why was she a girl on the outside? She truly thought it was to torture her. So she scarred the body she hated, as if it would do any good

Pass

"Dude.. You're a girl!" His words shot through me like a jolt of electricity. Did he just say what I think he did? He did, didn't it? I analyze my situation quickly. What happened exactly? My mind feels hazy and it takes me a few seconds to recall. I was trying to enjoy a walk through the park with my friends when Hilda clumsily spilled her soda on me. My shirt was soaked but Hilbert offered to take me home to change. He had offerred his jacket to me.. After that we rushed home, I went to my room and he came into my room. Did he want his jacket back? I guess he does. He's standing in front of me, head turned, blushing furiously. It takes

Trangst Poem - FTM

The girl who never was and the boy who cannot be. A face unknown. Hollow, Lacking, Vacant. It stares. Bones grow out of place, Bulging, twisting, breaking up straight lines. Blood follows, a screaming pain that cannot be subdued. It drips, smears, stains. Tainted. Confusion sets in. Mass hysteria? Cells divide and concur, an uncontrollable growth. The heart longs to love, but is trapped within a cage of bones and mounds of flesh. An unfamiliar home. The mirror reflects lies, which cannot be proven incorrect. Untrained eyes, cannot view the falsehood, of this perceived womanhood. I've grown tired of lying. And I've gro

Scream

I stared at the mirror today trying to remind myself that I am a hyena. Misunderstood, but great. Hell - I’m lying to you. To the world. To myself. I’m not even a cicada - At least they have a voice to scream. & I wish I could scream. So loud the sound breaks eardrums. So loud that all the voices in my head shut up. - dearpoetry

i trusted you with my porcelain collarbones and you laid the shards you shattered across the freezing floor, in an attempt to put me back together. but you know, you know, that masking the once-beautiful parts of me with rushed and careless taping won't make me any less broken.

Porcelain Doll

Porcelain doll with tangled hair, People pass or stop and stare, Her cotton clothes are ripped and torn, Her parents regret the day she was born, Her plastic heart has melted down, Her stunning smile, a perfect frown, Her shining future, a blackened road, Her flowing words, a fucked up code. Once glowing eyes, now dark and dead, And voices scream inside her head, A falling rain of acid tears, Mirrors reflecting all her fears, A fire raging through her veins, Drugs to reduce all her pains, Her porcelain skin, now scarred and bruised, Her staggering beauty, now gone and used. A foreign beauty, now buried alone, A cryptic place

Just a Dream. Please.

I feel... that this is a dream. None of it's real. Nothing's what it seems. But sometimes I wake with a gasp and a start. Like being thrown in a lake, the cold waking my heart. And I look up in fear at what I've done. It's bringing me to tear, this monster I've become. The things I've said, the people I've hurt. I wish I were dead, Six feet in the dirt. This can't be real. I won't let it be. I don't want to feel. I don't want to be me. So I slip back into dreams, where everything's okay. Nothing's as it seems, but I get through the day.

Devitalized State

Been down this road before. Those same old monsters are knocking on my door. I thought that I buried them deep under the floor. Some how they got back inside. I thought the old me had died. Apparently he lied. I let them back in through the cracks. Little by little the light turned black. Nothing is what it seems, just give me my life back. I talked so much about change. Kept saying everything is not staying the same. No matter how I got here, I am still to blame. Shame is what I feel within me. This is not the person that I want to be. I am stuck somewhere in the middle and I can not see. So sick of this person that I have become. Feeli

Description

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time
And as I stared I counted
Webs from all the spiders
Catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
and hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
Stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head
Don't waste your time on me you're already
The voice inside my head
