Hush little baby, don't be sad,
He loves us really, your crazy dad.
-
Twelve months of letting my broken heart heal,
A year of convincing myself that this is real.
-
Once in every lifetime, you will come across somebody,
And without even speaking, you know they’re the one for you.
-
I find it hard to tell the truth, I find it hard to speak,
I find it hard to talk to you, and yes, I know I'm weak.
-
I bear scars from a life that I’ve left far behind,
Burn, needle, and stab marks; to these, most are blind.
-
Won’t let anybody tell me that we’re too young, / ‘Cause I can see the future when we’ve barely begun. / Oh, the path may be winding, the p

My beloved lies in hospital in a comatose state; / The first time he’s been ill since our marriage in ’48. / The doctors say there’s little hope, but forever will I wait – / I will not give up on the man I fell in love
-
I'm well aware that your kiss could kill me - So kiss me, dark angel, so I can die happy.
-
If you want to cheat, then be my guest, Because two can play your little game.

-
This is the story of a fragile girl, Others see her as strong, but soon she’ll break.

-
I punish myself every time I cave, and eat -
It's a simple little pattern - binge, purge, repeat.

-
Little porcelain doll, with your colored hair and fair complexion,
How could a toy like you ever fear to see her own reflection?
-
Some days I wish you’d left me in my self-imposed cell -
Before I was just lonely, but loving you is Hell.
-
-
You only felt apathy as you walked away,
Now I'm filled with rage as I live out my dream.
-
If only I didn’t have to lie awake craving your touch,
If only I didn’t have to keep missing you so damn much!
-
Throw away myself to try to please,
Throw away my insecurities.
-
Pray for the children who will always feel alone,
Pray for the young victims of an unloving home.
-
Please don't ever be afraid to come to me and cry,
Please don't ever hesitate to look me in the eye.
-
What if I told you that I don’t have a name?
For me, family nicknames were never a game.
-
-
I’ll tell you now what I was thinking then; please know that this is true -
I can’t think of anyone who deserves those things more than you do.
-
Maybe one day I’ll wake up not hoping today’s the day I’ll die,
Maybe one day the smiling and the laughter won’t be just a lie.
-
I’ve written about my friends and I and our issues before,
But this poem is different; you see, this one has something more.
-
But slowly you’ve turned into the sort of guy I most despise –
I’m torn between my love for you and your never-ending lies.
-
But now I have a problem - you see, I have to quit the booze,
Tobacco, pot, and all the rest; all of this I have to lose.
-
I thought you might be different, but it turns out you’re full of shit,
I guess you’re just like every other guy I’ve ever been with…
-
Everything I want has always been right there in front of me,
But I’ve always been so blind that I could never seem to see.
-
So why, then, is it you I can see in my nightmares?
Why should my own father be the root of all my fears?
