I Ate Your Cheese
Listen,
I ate your cheese.
I’m sorry!
(Sort of)
But you left it
in the fridge.
And it was getting moldy.
Or maybe not.
It’s hard to tell
with blue cheese.
Anyway,
I’m not proud of it
okay?
But it called to me
in it’s little cheesy voice.
It said,
“eat me, I’m delicious”.
And you know what?
It was!
Can I still crash on your couch?
Your cat likes me…
Crazy
The stuffed animals
Were real
Alive
They could talk
They could think
They could smile
They could even wink
Or did they only blink?
We would talk
For hours on end
I was only a kid
Who needed a friend
I'm not lying
I'm not joking
I thought it was true
So please,
No more poking
They said that's a sign
Of a sociopath
Not the imaginary part
Cuz it may have been more than that
They told me to hurt people
The mean ones only
But I didn't listen
And that's why I know
I'm not
THAT
Crazy
Crimson Flowers
Tears sprinkled little earthen plot,
crying for husband they said had run off.
Young woman tended crimson flowers
dawn to dusk as red moon stared
at carmine earth in its burgundy light.
Rich mixture of red clay and iron
brought joy as she turned copper dirt,
muscles aching as she plunged spade,
mixing in white bone meal to fertilize.
Spirits lifted working the ground -
sad lonely girl, townspeople said,
gossiping about husband finding
blossom supplying sweet honey.
Budding lass just smiled to herself,
roses bloomed so lush and full,
sadness dissipated with her secret
husband’s bones enriched the earth.
Your fingers constructed abandoned houses wherever they touched me
And every night I see you but you're nothing more than an apparition in the corner of my eye
With every "I Love You," you injected ghosts into my bloodstream-
Leaving me haunted even when you weren't there
So now I can't sleep with the lights off
Because even the sun can't chase away your shadows
And priests won't set foot near my front door
(They've given me up to the devil)
A Hidden Truth
I knew it would happen as soon as I
saw him.
I knew that soon he would occupy
my thoughts and fill them
with burning wishes.
I knew that I mustn't share
this with anyone.
The feelings I had toward him
had from the very beginning been attraction.
I loved everything about him,
except for one little thing.
He was permanently glued to my mind.
But this secret, it was too dark to tell.
Too deep, for though she didn't love him back,
he loved her, leaving me as nothing more than once again
second to my very own sister.
Marionette
Food
Razors
Enemies
Seducing me
With false promises
We’re all you’ve got, they say
What would you do without us?
Conspiring with my depression
Keeping me bloodied and malnourished
Laughing at me when I tell them to leave
We’re not going anywhere, they proclaim
Manipulating my puppet strings
Eliminating my free will
Setting me up for failure
Unhealthy coping skills
They are not my friends
I’m tired of this
So guess what?
I am
Done
Vengeful.
Who am I?
I'm the girl that's sweet as pie.
The girl that always gives smiles,
And the girl that love runs for miles.
But people don't know how crazy I can be.
Until they cross me.
And treat me like crap
Then the sweet girl act is a wrap.
I always try to be kind.
But you wanna know what I find?
A back full of dozens of sharp knives.
And that my friends, is when the queen of vengeance arrives.
