Thin Stitches
He walked on the sidewalk She looked at his shadow that followed him faithfully, Then he looked up, Their eyes met,  They glanced away, Because they couldn’t rekindle the memory again, Ripping the thin stitch they created to seam away their worst memories -A Postscript and unnecessary to the poem: What I was trying tell in this poem is a story about two people who have been hurt by eachother and even though they love eachother, their are obstacles that they're too scared of getting through. Their are things that words can't sort out and love can't defend, so they decided to close it off. Sometimes, the path of indifference is the most painful but most efficient.

Hidden
I smile I laugh I help  I fake it all I have gone through years without a blink of hesitation  As I smile As I laugh As I help,  my heart chips away, bit by bit Nothing I do is real anymore I have no one to comfort me when I cry So I pretend instead I pretend that all things are good and happy, my negative emotions stored away in a warehouse of old things I don’t need anymore So when I leave the comfort of my house, my tears dry, my heart is devoid of emotion and my fake smile is plastered onto my face So when I go to school I smile like I would after years of practice So when I go to lunch I laugh like nothing is wrong So when I sit down in the classroom I help other students like I understand what is going on But when I come home, the facade is over When I come home, all the walls I build break and crumble, leaving a pile of rubble When I lay down on my bed, a slow trickle of tears meets my pillow My chest heaves and my heart asks why it holds such a burden My eyes burn and my stomach churns at the prospect of keeping my true self hidden away  I drift away from this world, making up it’s own fantasies and dreams I drown in the beauty of a story and my heart begins to pump again My stomach has calmed down, my chest beats as it usually does  And my mind swirls And so I remember, My heart may be cracked and broken and jagged, but it is still beating and that is all that matters -A

Little Princess Dolls
Note: This is was based off a historical genre. Thus, some of the things written here will not match with modern ideas and laws. Also there are sensitive topics that I would like to mention beforehand. Thank you for reading: They were little girls with small cute teddy bears and ankle length princess dresses that sparkled in the light, They too dreamed of their handsome prince riding into the night They had tiaras and necklaces that were plastic and dull, But why were they smiling there and not now When they have real necklaces that glitter with jewels and long dresses with lace and diamonds,  Why were they crying in their rooms,  Shouting for someone to care for them too Was it their husbands who could’ve been their age times 2 or was it because they hit their faces with 3 other woman licking his shoes Was it the way they had been sold off for money, Or the way they had been dirtied, They had their dresses, and looked quite fabulous too, But really, they couldn't breathe because of their corset, and couldn’t walk because of their heels, They were slaving away while another more lucky, was with her prince, the one that never came, and instead had ridden into the night Without another look back -Abigail

Dark gave way to light
As dark gave way to light, Thousands of rays Lit the sky The stars disappeared The moon sunk As the night gave way to the dawn

I shall not bow
Kill me if you must, But I shall not bow to a king Who wears a crown Studded with the jewels of every life he has taken

That girl
Be careful of that girl, She has fire in her heart, A storm raging in her eyes, She makes Kingdoms fall, She makes monsters wish they were never born   -A.C

Fairytale
Love was only a fairytale, She never believed in it, If another told her about it, She would scoff She would never believe it, Until, She met it, Faced it, Right in the eye And she was drowned in it, She was broken by it, Sufocated, Dying, And she understood. Love was real But she wished it was still a fairytale -A.C

Tired
She was so tired Tired of life, Tired of not being good enough, Tired of beinp alone, Tired of holding back tears, And so she smiled And so she laughed Knowing that no one would know how hurt she was inside -A.C

Slow death
She smiles with the most beautiful smile She looks so happy, Joking, laughing, having a great time and yet. . . Dying inside So deep in the darkness that she can never walk away, Tired from the pain she endures And scared for what is coming next -A.C

Dark Angel
She was an angel, Beautiful and glorious, Yet she was also a demon Who lived in isolation and was yet powerful enough to come out of the darkness and reclaim the world as its own -A.C

Burn
She lit up the heavans And streaked through the sky Without a care in the world Without a single goodbye She rose in the air And flew through the clouds Landing on fire And not coming down
