I'm a ticking time bomb
A bottle full of pressure
The cork is stuck
I won’t give them a warning to duck
Will shatter into a million pieces
A broken pencil
Not usable or wanted
You get taunted
Never picked first
But yet I get picked on first
Yet if someone just sharpened me…never
They still won’t let me pull the lever
I'm treading in high water and I'm getting tired
Going to blow eventually
No one can see all the pressure rising higher yet
Later, they might have regrets
What will they say when you explode?
Is that what they want?
They’ll laugh at the exploded mess,
And your unrealistic progress
Good luck picking yourself back up
Why don’t they just shut up already?
Why don’t you just open up to someone
Instead of hiding behind a zinger or a pun
I am Grendel
I hate the sound of laughter
It just leaves me angry after
I am Grendel
I like to be alone
I'm a monster with a heart of stone
I am Grendel
When I see someone having fun
I get the impulse to run
I am Grendel
I’ve been around
And Beowulf threw me to the ground
I am Grendel
All I need is love
But I only seem to get shoved
I am Grendel
Why can't anyone see?
They don’t get me
I am Grendel
Always misunderstood
No one ever believed in me and told me that I could
I am Grendel
No one understands
Always getting canned
I am Grendel
I don’t mean to be bitter
Too bad people never consider
I am Grendel
I get laughed at for the way I look
I get out of this world by reading books
I am Grendel
Did you pay attention to what you said?
Because of you I am dead
I am Grendel
I can’t keep going
The current is too strong and keeps flowing
I am Grendel
I've bled out
There is so much self doubt
I am Grendel
I don’t know what to do, I am lost
Their insults in my heart are permanently embossed
I am Grendel
I just wish it would stop
I'm never on the top
I am Grendel
I've never been shone
Just leave me alone
I want anxiety to be anxious of me
I will hold my ground without being an earthquake myself
I will stand still and strong; there will be no such thing as a shaking knee
When the time comes I will weigh so much you will not move me with anything
Beating the ill out of illnesses; it will be the one in need of an amputee
I want depression to be happy for me
Everything should watch out for me because here I come
I might look cute but that’s just my disguise
“I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream” I hum
There’s strong and then there’s Taylor strong
I am the cherry bomb
No longer will I fall into your guilt trap
Not everyone is there for you and sometimes you are alone
But I don’t need anyone when I have myself; if you think otherwise you’re thinking crap!
I’m writing this cheese for my future self to not cut
You like tigers so don’t be a donkey without a tail
Don’t forget that you’re hungry for success
Don’t forget that it is good to fail
I think you learn more and go farther in life,
When you are done fixing the hole in dear Henry’s pail
I am a train chugging on broken tracks and I love it
With my emo black boots it feels like I can go anywhere in the world
It keeps me interested in where I am going to go and where I’ll find that I fit
I can’t stay curled
I cannot stay still and sit
A bit of white on blue isn't
A tad quite all white
All I see is white
A pure, Christian shade of white A white expanding cloud
A white page
An unknown
Anonymous An
Anxiety
Attack
And a loss of godliness Honestly it became a sharp
Hue of
Hatred
How did it come to this... "Hi" I say to my friend
He says it was a
Hit and run
However I Have to try not to
Hyperventilate through this
Hiccup. Why did this have to
Happen. Now my car has a Scarlet letter, but I am getting
Help to hammer out the dents
I only wish I could have frozen
Time
Just another chip lost in the dip
The second half of the broken chip
No one’s favorite
Always picked last
Salty tears I cry (cuz I'm a chip lol)
I want to get out of the thick ocean
But I'm stuck
No going back now
Everyone sees me
But they won’t help me
I'm oh so blue
Slowly sinking more and more under
The thunder of the storm grows louder
It surrounds me
I hate the coolness but start to like it
It gives me a false comfort that I like
I like taking a risk in it
Now it has me all the way under
I'm drowning
It hurts less than I expected
I see it getting darker as I sink
But it hypnotizes me
I like sinking
I see everyone else swimming
I like being under it’s like I know a secret that they don’t
They can’t see you because you’re under so far
I have lost most of my salt so I sink yet further
The ocean makes it feel like I'm on top of the world flying
But I'm just the opposite but I don’t care
No one can save me now
But I like that, it makes you feel free of everyone
I wish that one certain person could save me
They think they did one other time but they didn’t
You think I’ll be perfectly fine again, but what if I never was?
I screamed for help once but you didn’t listen as I walked away
I need them
How dare you leave me like this?
I think you owe me an apology yet the world still owes me nothing
You think you cleaned my slate for me but you didn’t
Instead you scratched it up
You think nothing of it
But you don’t know half of it
I just want you to hold me, with your gentle fingers and warm me with the kindhearted words you speak
Sorry I just get scared and lonely just like you
Please heal my stone turned heart
It’s been broken from a young age
Living day to........day, broken
I've almost hit the bottom of the almost infinite ocean
I want to be in the sky
The sky is infinite
I hope you realize that what goes up doesn’t always come back down
Angles started from the ground and they stay in the sky
I want to be there
Save me if you care
I hope you’ll be there forever
Forever not never
What do you do with the flooring that gets ripped out from underneath you?
How do you find everything that went out the window?
At the moment the breeze that was coming from all around was refreshing
Time was a weird state of being
At the time the sun went down it
Rang out the last drops of pink daylight on the clouds
Evenings are cold with you gone
You were an exceptional white flag
Out with the old, in with the new
Unfazed when my insecurities are soaked in the salty type of anger
Doing the action of pacing in the trench that I fell back into
Oozing with the blood of regret from standing,
In,
No mans land, with a,
Great gunshot wound in the heart
I feel the warmth
Of the light at the end of the tunnel
I think this is the last
Of the darkness
Well at least for a while
So here's to a new start
Here's to a change
That will make my future self scream,
Plot twist!
Plot twist!
One so well written by the insanity of reality
That it catches god by surprise
A castle of freshly grown hope
A castle that I built out of the crap in my life
A new life of being alone
I must learn to stretch my wings once in a while
I must learn to stop
Beating myself up
I think
That i should be brave enough
To be me
Which is a simple task for some
I think that this is the last
Of the darkness for now
You, little flit flirt
Back at my window
From bad to good, my feelings you convert
The wind blows, blows, blows
Window, open, I still can’t hear you
Please stay
With you I think I’ll get through
My light of day
Everything, you give
I’ll saver
Die for you, or live?
If you ever need a favor...
You and I don’t have the clock,
Don’t rush
Love, my time torturously tick tocks
Me heart you better not crush
I will succeed
Still you come and go
Love me?
You taught me how to go with the flow
I'm in the eye of the storm
It’s a nice break but I know it’s not over
The forecast shows another month of hell
In my brain that might not go over very well
It could become deformed
Rain will grow a green four leaf clover
Clear blue skies
And because of them, sometimes my heart dies
I don’t know the next time I’ll meet the sun again
I don’t care how long the storm is, I'm not going to stop
The odds I have to beat
It’s not easy at all stuck in the heat
The whispers of wind from way back when,
My jaw didn’t pop
When I could think freely without stress
Back when I didn’t know what made a mess
But it wasn’t great back then either
When my future comes I have to keep in mind that I can’t control what others think
Let them think whatever the hell they want
Let us be stupidly nonchalant
Dark clouds and rainstorms neither
Are the things that make you stink
Don’t believe in staying inside on rainy days
I don’t need the sun’s praise
I feel anxious for what my future could hold
I have grit
How will I make it much longer?
How much farther do I have to go?
I want to see books getting sold
Between a rock and a hard place I do not want to sit
I'm in the eye
And that gives me some time to think
I miss you
But I have to study for midterms
I can't wait for this summer
You love my “burns”
Now I believe that you are true
I want to be with you
I'm in my messy room
It's my lazy Saturday
I need the warm for the fresh fruits to bloom
It feels like a dream that I'm with you
I want to be physically with you
We might not be seeing each other much
You want to party
Your hand, for you, I will touch
I want to hug you
More than cute wound never describe you
Now I am comfortable with you on my mind
We are very similar
I'm letting myself slowly go blind
I'm falling for you
I'm surprised I went back for you
I can smell you on my sweatshirt
You drive me crazy
In our pasts we've both have been hurt
Why am I still writing about you?
My head still decides to never stop thinking about you
Love lyrics to a finite song
Someday all of this might haunt me
I hope this lasts long
Me and you
I leave my journal laying open at night, hoping that the words will fly off the page
And drift out the window into the night air
And dance around the moon
I should start dreaming soon
Too many bugs flying around my world
You wouldn’t want forever
People change
And you’ve never seen my rage
I miss your calming
Smooth
Sing-song voice
You left me no choice
But to trust
And live in the exhilarating moment
And taught me that you don’t have to chase
Or try to erase
Moments
Of happiness and sadness
The magic is already there
Sparking in the air
Getting stuck in your crazy hair
That I miss more than you'd ever know
I'm stuck in negative time
While forgetting how to rhyme
Where are my feelings?
Behind my eyes
Sharp
Hidden under the weathered tarp
One day I will finish writing my story
And I’ll let the words swarm you like a tornado of bees
Or a meteor shower
A universe with all the power
Hello over there! I love writing poetry. I have a dream of becoming a writer! I hope that my poetry makes you feel like you're not in this world all alone.
