And I was harrowed up in my mind

Great steel blades of remorse
Unceasingly shred my mind
Lifting into the light
The things I wanted to hide.
Earthy wormy black thoughts,
Carefully stowed underneath.
The smooth and jeweled tone
Of a manicured grassy green.
No more neatly buried
But exposed in ragged clods
Layed out indecently
Upon the tattered facade.
I must examine each
And break it my own hands
To form a fertile soil
Then neatly smooth my lands
This time I'll plant wisely
With thing that are good to eat
Never again ashamed
Of roots that lie underneath

Break away

Persistent imps, my own small guilts
Relentlessly snatch at the hem of my mind.
My self-esteem wrapped in soft quilts
Of procrastination listlessly lined.
Rays of sunlight pierce the mist
And blind my ennui blinkered eyes
My atrophied braincells writhe and twist
And sell me stale-sweat-smell lies.
But something whispers softly sweet
And breaks through the deadened days
Lifts me to my disused feet
And sweeps away the musty haze

I hear them talking

Giggling about their boyfriends,
Their first times smoking pot.
Who did what with whom,
And who is really "Hott"
And part of me feels saddened
What makes them do those things?
And part of me feels left out
Sky high and alone with my wings.

Teenage drama

Adolescent angst
Is sure to get attention
If only for a laugh
And afterschool detention.

Kiddie nonsense
Prepubescense
Foreign accents
"what is that???" scents

Pre adulthood life
Is full of sticky labels
Put on by dorks and nerds
And people hiding under tables

Goody two shoes
You snooze you loose
You are all fools
Awful hairdos

Bye bye.

One pound of chocolate covered raisins.
Daytime call to long-distance friend.
A very big bowl of chocolate ice cream
Some chickflicks and a box of tissues.
A haircut and THREE new pairs of shoes.
That's what I've done to get over you.
