<3 Ready to Fly <3
I spread my wings and fly away,
Decided to catch my dreams today,
I glance back to see outstretched hands,
For they’re still waiting in the stands,
Until their day to rise,
And see through their youthful guise.
Droplets forming in my eyes,
I’m far away but can still hear their cries,
I can see the sun rising ahead,
But in this rain, I feel dead.
A shining star brushes by my cheek,
And I realize I can’t do this alone; I’m just too weak,
So the rain pours down as I turn back,
There’s something I forgot to pack.
My wings take me down,
And I land in the stands of my town,
My friends stand there just staring at me,
The rain has cleared and I can finally see,
“I can’t do this without you”,
“And we need you too.”
I shake the rain from my wing,
And begin to sing,
“Let’s join hands,
I know you guys understand.
Let us form as one,
Let the fighting be done,
We can do it together,
You’ve seen what we can weather.
I may have my dreams,
And will follow those streams,
But we’re in this together,
Don’t let our friendships sever.”
Today my friends joined hand-in-hand,
Realizing these childish quarrels aren’t what we planned,
Took steps together towards the rain,
Finally rid of anger and blame,
We spread our wings and flew away,
Decided to catch our dreams today…
Fuck you asshole,
Get out of my head,
There’s something of mine you stole,
And now I feel dead.
Do you feel like a man,
Because you’re stronger than a child,
This wasn’t in my plan,
And you just fucking smiled.
Now I’m just not right,
And I want you to pay,
My fists are wound tight,
In the dirt you shall lay.
Fuck you asshole,
Get out of my bed,
There’s something of mine you stole,
And I’ll cut you till you’re dead.
Do you feel like a man,
Now that you lost to a child,
This was my plan,
And I can fucking smile.
You stole my innocence,
And I took it back,
That’s all past tense,
And now a life you lack.
*~Mini Poems~*
This world is changing pretty fast,
right before my eyes,
leaving me to turn to the past,
To decipher all the lies
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~** ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Do a little dance, Get up and sing,
Take a chance,
And shake that burden from your wing.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~** ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Now an adult at the age of nineteen,
So much has happened you haven’t seen,
Seven years have flown so fast,
Terrifying secrets in my past,
At night I want to scream,
For I know this isn’t a dream,
Even if things are spinning,
And guilty faces grinning,
I know my lips must stay sealed,
Until the broken ones have healed.
*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I’m not a little girl anymore,
You can’t tell me what to do,
I’ll point to the door,
And tell you to go screw,
I’m no longer afraid,
Or small and naïve,
Not a little girl with the pony-tail braid,
Now a woman you can’t easily deceive.
Instead of looking down,
I’m always looking up,
You won’t see me frown,
For I see the half-full cup,
Always standing tall,
Through the thick and thin,
Not going to fall,
Now that I can win.
I’m not a little girl anymore,
You can’t make me scream,
I’ll reach for the stars and soar,
Create my own dream,
I’m not a child, crying and sore,
I won’t be knocked down with a kick of your shoe,
I’ll point to the door,
And tell you to go screw .
Happy 22nd Birthday Karen- Poem for my sister
Though two years apart,
I always felt the beating of one heart,
for we shared a special bond,
Your spirit my magic wand.
We grew up side by side,
And held one another when we cried,
I knew everything would be alright,
For you taught me to stand up and fight.
I learned from you not to give in,
That getting back up is half the win,
And sometimes facing a strife,
Will lead you to a better life.
There was a time I was trapped in a cloud,
I couldn’t hear my own voice-everything was so loud,
I watched you climb higher and higher,
Clearly untouched by the searing fire.
I didn’t understand how you made it so high,
You just shook off the soot and started to fly,
Then I watched as you caught a shiney star,
And realized our dreams were never too far.
You waited for me up there in the sun,
And for once I didn’t want to run,
I saw that you lent me a hand,
And it was okay to need help to stand.
Thanks for being my guiding light,
The one who made the monsters go away in the night,
You’re my sister, my friend,
And someone I can always depend.
Happy Birthday to you,
On your day of two-two,
Make wishes for the new,
And watch them come true.
I Love you Ka!
<3 Lee~Lee
My Truth
The Lights are going out,
While stars twinkle about,
I climb into my bed,
And dreams dance through my head.
Another night out of reach,
Strong arms that I can’t breach,
Heart’s racing, racing in my chest,
I keep expecting another guest.
My eyes shoot open with the door,
Chills wash over, cooling my core,
Shadowy figure looms over my bed,
I roll over and cover my heard.
My eyes are closed so tight,
But I’m ready to put up a fight,
I don’t know if he’s real,
But soon my clothes he’ll peel.
I’ll kick and twist and hit,
His hand I almost bit,
But soon he’ll catch my hands,
And I’ll be forced to his demands.
He’ll talk and I won’t understand,
Annoyed he’ll slap me with his hand,
And tears will streak my cheeks,
For I know what he seeks.
A memory plays through my head,
I wanted to be dead,
When life really changed,
And left me rearranged.
Everything is spinning fast,
Memories flood me from my past,
I’m thinking, thinking, what to do,
Mom I want to run to you.
From his pocket comes a stick,
He jabs it down and I feel a prick,
And suddenly the world’s not clear,
I fade in and out and it’s hard to bear.
I open my mouth to scream,
But I can’t—just like in my dream,
Hardly a sound escapes my lips,
And now I feel him against my hips.
Someone help me, I think I say,
But it’s getting so damn hard to stay,
In and out of consciousness, Wondering, wondering where’s my sis?
My arms so heavy as I push him away,
He knocks them to the bed, and there they stay,
I tell them to move, to get up and fight,
But all I can do is lay still in the night.
I wake again to the forsaking,
Of my innocence that he’s taking,
deep inside me grows a pit,
and with each thrust that's what he hit.
Mommy come and save me,
Can’t you hear my plea,
I’m in the room beside you,
I know you love me too.
Sister can't hear you my call,
I’m only down the hall,
I don't know what I did to you,
don't you love me at all?
Now I am growing tired,
and childhood's expired,
I'm slowly sinking under,
into the land of wonder.
Then suddenly I jump awake,
and I can't help but shake,
as I lay bare in my bed,
thoughts stream through my head.
I'm all alone and crying,
I feel like just dying,
why could no one hear my plea,
how come he did that to me?
I dress and climb back into bed,
I can't remember what he said,
I know I'm not supposed to tell,
that at least rings a bell.
The drugs have nearly worn,
but inside my body's torn,
and all I can think about,
is why didn't I shout?
I coulda tried to kick him,
and the lights were pretty dim,
I shouldda kept up the fight,
none of this is right.
Now the sun is rising,
the truth I am disguising,
As I tell myself,
you must put this on a shelf.
That day I left behind me,
who I didn't want to be,
I started to be someone new,
guess I didn't think it through.
I pretended it was all a lie,
tossed it out with no good-bye,
I really had myself fooled,
and for many months this new girl ruled.
Then one day in the shower,
my illusion lost its power,
It started with a wave,
and in the dizziness I caved.
Thought I felt a pinch,
I couldn't help but flinch,
then I slipped and fell,
into the depths of hell.
Everything came rushing back,
the new girl began to pack,
images flashed before my eyes,
and down came all my lies.
As I slowly remembered more,
life around me tore,
I feared the end of each day,
I just wanted to run away.
It was a secret I just couldn't tell, t
hey'd just say "why didn't you yell",
and I don’t know what to say,
I don’t even remember most of that day.
It’s like a terrible dream,
That makes me scream,
I feel like it’s written all over my face,
Like everyone knows all over the place.
I know they really don’t,
And if I don’t tell them they won’t,
But sometimes I just want to open the vault,
Yell to them “It wasn’t my fault!”
But I can’t open my mouth,
Or everything will go south,
Like back a bunch of years,
When our family was brought to tears.
I can’t put them through that again,
They went through enough way back then,
And I can’t let them look at me,
For I’m afraid what they may see.
Words from the past skip through my head,
“she probably asked for it”, that’s what they said,
I knew that they were wrong then,
And I was barely older than ten.
But I’m not as strong as her,
I would curl up and die for sure,
I can’t just tell them to go screw,
I couldn’t bare it if they knew.
I’m the little sister that’s supposed to be naïve,
But really I’m a girl that learned how to deceive,
I put up all these faces,
And wasn’t in gods good graces.
I am proud of who I am,
And I don’t give a damn,
What you think,
Go ahead and say it- I won’t even blink.
Although I am mature,
I wouldn’t want you to endure,
The last six years of my life,
For they surely were a strife.
I used to hate my room,
I’d lay in my bed and it felt like a tomb,
So I hung up each token,
Clippings, words and the broken.
With the brilliant plan I had devised,
My room was now disguised,
I thought that’s what I wanted,
But really it came back and haunted
Any mention of that word,
Everything spun, tightened and blurred,
Each picture only reminded me,
That there’s something I didn’t want to see.
Only last year I broke free,
Took down the fake- what’s left is me,
My walls may be bare,
But I don’t care.
I have learned how to cope,
Hold strong to my hope,
And maybe, just maybe one day,
I’ll be able to say:
“Mom and dad I’m sorry,
& nbsp; I didn’t mean to blame,
& nbsp; I have been so chary,
& nbsp; And haven’t been the same.
& nbsp; Sister you just gotta know,
& nbsp; It wasn’t your fault either,
& nbsp; I didn’t mean to be so low,
& nbsp; But it wasn’t my fault neither.
& nbsp; I tried and tried to call for help,
& nbsp; But he was just too strong,
& nbsp; I did get out a tiny yelp,
& nbsp; But didn’t last too long.
& nbsp; He rapped and drugged me,
& nbsp; And there was nothing you could do,
& nbsp; He was as quiet as can be,
& nbsp; As not you wake you.
& nbsp; I have lived in secrecy,
& nbsp; And told you many lies,
& nbsp; You said I lived in a fantasy,
& nbsp; Now do you wonder why?
& nbsp; Do not blame yourself,
& nbsp; Or let your teary eyes brim
& nbsp; I even blamed myself,
& nbsp; When I should have blamed him.
& nbsp; I do not want your pity,
& nbsp; I do not want more shame,
& nbsp; Now put behind the bitty,
& nbsp; So things can stay the same.
& nbsp; If you’re asking why I tell you,
& nbsp; This really wasn’t planned
& nbsp; Sometimes I don’t know what to do,
& nbsp; I just want you to understand.
Whispers in the Crowd
I used to be the whisper in the crowd,
thinking that no one could hear me above the loud.
A girl somewhere was screaming, "The world is at its end,
for me and Johnny Johnson's love can surely never mend."
A yelp from Sammie Simpson who burst to tears,
for Maggie kissed the boy that she liked for years.
Jamie Jacobs threw a fit,
for Robbie claims, "I touched her tit"
And Billy Benson picked a fight,
for Bradly took his girl out for a bite.
Suddenly I heard a whisper that wasn't my own,
"I'll kill them, those idiots, shoot them all." with a groan.
I turned to the voice, whispering back, "But why?"
"For their ignorance, and little problems, they say they want to die"
And then her story began,
It all stated with these words, "We ran,
My mother and brothers and I,
it was either that or die"
Her father was in the mob,
she knew all about his job,
killing was a way of life,
it was okay to stab someone with a knife.
Her mother couldn't take it any more,
she took her kids and ran out the door,
hid miles away, and didn't fight when big brother took her youngest kid,
at least she'd stand a chance and be safely hid.
she can't go home often or sleep in her bed,
and lives knowning her dad wants her dead.
She couldn't understand why these kids were yelling,
So I began telling,
"What would you do if you had a kid,
let them live as you did, or keep it all hid?"
Her jaw dropped, "They would never know!"
I explained that the parents here try not to let the bad show,
they shield them as long as they can,
living the hard life is no mother's plan.
"I get it" she spoke,
and her angry barrier broke.
That day she made a friend,
and learned it was okay to depend.
I used to think that my whisper couldn't be heard,
but I know without it, the problem couldn't have been cured,
Maybe we should be paying more attention to the quiet voices,
so that we as individuals can make better choices.
P.S. (Remove those four loud voices, and you'll learn that its been the quiet ones together you've been hearing all along. Your whisper- your voice makes a difference)
This poem came from real life. I met a new student who was so upset by all the kids complaining about their boyfriends and little problems. She said they were so ignorant and should be taught a lesson. She was planning to have a bunch of people show up with guns, and shoot people to "teach them a lesson". We'd been making small talk for a couple of weeks and little by little she'd opened up to me about her tough life. Somehow I convinced her that these kids were "blissfully ignorant" and if she could pick a life for someone, she'd wish them the same. She decided not to bring harm on us. She wasn't used to the suburbs, and it was a big change for her. She's slowly adjusting. :) My happiest/ most proud moment in my life.
Love come knocking on my heart
Love come knocking on my heart
I thought that things could change,
I prayed that I’d find hope,
I need my world to rearrange,
So I can learn to cope.
One day I will be better,
I will raise above,
Look back upon this letter,
And open up to love.
I thought that I could heal,
All by myself,
Instead I made a deal,
To forget it on a shelf.
He only took my innocence,
But I let him have my life,
I needed to commence,
And pull out that knife.
I saw that things could change,
And I found my hope,
The world began to rearrange,
And I learned to cope.
Today I am better,
I am up above,
Finishing this letter,
Now that I found love.

Listen up World...
Where Were You...
When I kicked and screamed, and called for help,
As arms reached down for me?
I begged and cried and fought some more,
waiting for you to come to my door,
but you never came,
and I learned life wasn't all fun and games.
I thought that I was going to die,
and after wanted to,
as he climbed up onto my bed,
and worlds spun through my head:
You can't do this to me,
I'm just 14 you see,
I'm waiting 'till I'm married,
please don't do this to me.
I promised to be different,
I want to keep my word,
don't rob me of my innocence,
don't hurt me anymore.
Please, I promise I'll be good,
I'll keep my mouth shut,
-stop please not my panties,
I need those, God, please no!
mom and Dad, where are you,
I'm calling out your name,
you told me you loved me,
so how come no one came?
I scream until I can't no more,
and let him till he's through,
hurt and bruised and bleedin',
I don't know what to do.
A needle,
and he drugs me,
the world begins to spin,
leaving me the memory, of his creepy grin.
I wake up and I'm crying,
between my legs is sore,
there's blood on my panties,
and on my bed there's more.
I want to take a shower,
clean all of me out,
I want to know why, no one heard me shout?
Mommy, daddy, where are you,
he's back again;
Round TWO,
and ready for a screw.
Please don't do this to me,
I can't do it again,
I never said a word,
No one ever heard!
You can't do this again,
please don't drug me-no,
God, I can hardly see,
and my mind is gonna go.
Mommy, daddy,,
I can't even call your name,
and I hate to feel any blame,
but where were you?

devil corruption
your devils spawn,
ur mind taken; gone
a cold hearted soul,
with one primary goal:
cause so much pain,
make the good strain,
watch us fall at ur feet,
crushed till we're beat,
a puddle of red,
looking back you wish those things u hadn't said,
that little innocent "pest",
you now lay down to rest,
a sister and a friend,
hearts to never mend,
looking up now you see,
this isn't who u wanna be,
looking back down that trail,
took the path u knew would fail,
painless dark life,
taking a child's innocence at the point of a knife,
blinking now i know you understand,
but it's not too late- take my hand,
make the leap into the air,
forget that it is heights you fear,
follow me to the golden gate,
see what could have been your fate...
Heart of Gold
Heart of gold,
secrets never to be told,
a friend I never got to meet,
a shattered soul soon to be beat,
trusting, caring, daring, strong
but something went so very wrong,
took a chance that tolled your life,
end result; a deadly knife,
a peaceful soul,
who met his goal,
laid upon the golden crest,
remaining in our hearts to rest.
*Lee* tell me wat u guys think please.
Looking for a good guy out there...<3
This world is so confusing. I've been thinking a lot lately. I really want someone there...not just a friend, but a guy that can hold me tight, tell me everything's gonna be alright. Someone I can trust, honest and sweet. A guy that accepts me for who I am, and won't try to presure me into things I'm not ready for or try to change me. Sometimes I just feel like crying, and want some there to depend on. We can take care of each other. I may not always be the best person, friend, sister, but I try as hard as I can, hoping it'll count for something.
A lot of guys seem to have just one thing on their mind: SEX. Yea, I guess that is all a part of being a teenage guy all the hormones goin' blah blah blah.. but can't they control them a bit more. It's not all guys, but seems to be so many that I meet. It's getting harder and harder to find good guys lately. I'm not saying it's just guys guys that can be asses, b/c trust me, I know a lot of girls who can be quite...female dogs around certain times of the month(also known to my friends as :"Thursday" lol).
If ur a good guys out there, or even just a good person that wants to talk, leave me a comment.
I'm not sure if all of you know me, so let me tell you a little about myself for those of u who don't know me.
My name is Lee. I live in Rhode Island. I'm 15, and although I may act older or youner depending on my mood and the people I'm around I'm pretty mature. I'm not a player, I'm honest, and people say I'm pretty dependable. I guess I'm ur average girl, with a little spice- I go from hanging out with friends to chillin with horses, cows and the Llama, Justin in the field near my house.I love animals. I like hanging out w/ my friends(love to yall!!), movies, mall, shopping, doing things outdoors, beach,swimming, read ing, writing poems and stories.And for stpid lil info: I have dirty blonde/lt. brown hair, brown eyes, I'm nearly 5' 7.(and thankfully not growing any taller lol.)
I'm starting to wonder If I've been searching for a guy who isn't even out there. But hey, guess it's good to dream. Just looing for someone with a good heart. I'm all about personality (if they're cute, it's a bonus lol).

Slave Girl
I'm Down on my knees,
begging you please,
drop your knife,
I'll give you my life,
fall at your feet,
let me be beat,
long as you sware,
you won't touch a hair,
on anyone else,
so release your belts...
Not My Time
Necklace of rope,
hangs from a slope,
breaking my hope,
learning to cope,
feet leave,
death I shall receive,
lack of air,
wondering if anyone will even care,
last breath,here comes death,
trying hard not to cry,
for I've realized I didn't really want to die.
*Lee* tell me wat yall think plz.
(...Here I come?)
One thing I refuse to break is my vows. They're the one thing I can hold onto. I don't wanna loose them. Maybe others would think they're stupid. I gotta go, I'll finish later. REady to break down... *munchkin*
Ready or Not...
Ready to cry,
not sure why,
as tears brimming in my eyes,
trying on a smile of disguise,
getting ready,
palms growing sweaty,
becoming one,
finally done,
gonna let some tears flow,
my true feelings really show...
*Maybe im ready to just let go, write away, talk away, stand up for what I believe in, let go with my wrods in my heart, the tears. I have trouble talking to most people..have trusting issues... but with the ones i trust, i think i might be ready to talk... I've been thinking about that for a while..who do i trust? Prolly Nicole and Ash... I think that's it. There's a few ppl that it's easy to talk to them, but i'm either not sure yet, or don't fully trust them. I know i don't have the best judgement, or even close... but im trying with that and everything, if that even means anything anymore...
When ppl say hurtful things, is it better to talk, explain, or just forget and move on? *Lee* (an asshole?)
*~SiLeNcE~*
Spoken my mind,
tried to be kind,
please don't be mad,
you guys are all I've ever had,
but I'm starting to defeat,
everygood friend that I meet,
my words only bringing hate,
maybe silence really is my fate,
so I'm fallin under
into the land of wonder,
not another tear shall be shed,
nor hurtful words said...
& nbsp; &n bsp; I'm sorry everyone I've hurt. I'll try harder, I wanna be a better person. I don't want to make anyone else fight. It seems lately all I've been doing is starting fights with everyone or screwing things up. I need some time to think. For now,my symbol's standing strong... *Lee*
