You Are Not My Dad

DownUp -1

It’s hard not think about everything going on.
People say forget about it.
How could i forget about a “man” that raised me?
You were my dad at one point in time.
Now, you are just someone that i dont even know anymore.
You leave your only daughter for a girl that took you away from me.
You said stuff you should have never said to a daughter.
If you were my dad you would still be in my life and not hers.
I dont want you here.
I never will want you here.
This is the present.
I cant keep living in the past.
I need to put you behind me but, leave the memories.
I dont know what to do with this anymore.
Should I forget or forgive?
I have forgiven so many times.
I have forgotten so many times.
I have took you back too many times.
Could anyone help me?
No, noone can help because they have never had their dad say that to them.
Why did you say that?
Was it out of anger?
Did you mean to?
I have it in my head you meant it so, i can forget about you.
It isnt working very well.
I wish someone had an answer for me.
You are not my dad.
You are a noone in my life.

Come Back

DownUp +6

I miss you like a dieting bride misses chalk-ah-lit
And if I were offered you with your flaws, I’d gladly take all of it
and yes I might cry, sure I may stress
but what’s a couple pounds on your dream girl’s white dress

See I know what we had was hella cool
and I know you’re missing me the way I’m missing you
so let us be the change that we want to see
shake hands, sign a treaty, and try to make peace

and it wouldn’t hurt for love to come and tag with us
I miss what we had, I will never give up
and I’ll taunt you like chocolate taunts a bride until you let up

Only Just A Dream

DownUp +7

WE both dreamt it
But it was only a dream
WE both want dreams
To be reality
And some parts of reality
To be a dream
To him
We were on a farm
After it happened
We played manhunt
A curious reason
Of why I was in a tree
But my hero saved me
I asked what else happened
It’s stupid
He wrote
Tell me
I demanded
From hug one
To hug three
He relieved each one
To me
We were under the stars
On a hill
We let go of each other
And rolled down the hill
Laughing softly together
We did what was done
On the hill and farm

My Fun

DownUp +7

Here and there
I see him everywhere
Wishing for his words
All I get is a passing by
How I want his respect
Others don’t understand
I like him
“Why? He’s gross.”
They say
“So what!”
I’ll scream
“Looks won’t cut for me.
Personality is all I see.”
Personality is what he plays
Silence when he walks away
Plead my cry
Please talk to me
I’ll listen
No words escape my lips
But they’re wanting a kiss
Just a silent shift of my hips
Come and sit
By me
You’ll forget the
Silly hatred and remember…
My fun

My Life

DownUp +10

Don’t do it
Is what they say
I will
When they walk away
So scared little me
Listening to other s day and night
Damn it now
There’s a fight
Just leave me alone
Let me be me
Broken hearts here and there
“Hun” needs to understand
That they’re everywhere
If I do it
I break a heart
And his heart broken
Will break me
Torn between lust and emotions
People say go with lust
But I want feelings
To control my life over
“Them”
Screaming
Shouting from their pie holes
Telling me who to choose
Now I say
“Everyone
SHUT UP”

Him

DownUp +6

He came to the door
Letting me in
Leaving me… wanting more
Silent and shy
His eyes scream to me
“Come closer. Look into my gaze.”
Foolish me
I fall for the six worded spell
Why does he have to be so…
Different?
Stretching in gym
I can’t help but glance at him
Multiple times in a minute
Scared little me
When he steals my glance
I turn away
Why is it so hard to breathe?
Does he steal my breath too?
Lunch is my weakest
My knees quake
My mind is wrapped around you
You are all I see
yet foolish me
I have nothing to say
No point to prove
Why is it this way?
Why is it that I’m pulling to him?
Most words I’ve spoken
Are only a couple
How I wish we were that
Sadly-say-little-words
Is you and I have no clue
How I wish I knew
People here and there
Know of it
But I want you to know
I want you to feel the same
I want Devon Pierni

Don’t Cry

DownUp +6

Tears stream down
My hot cheeks
Fear overwhelms me
Did “He” get him?
Where is he?
I stop for awhile
Stop. Don’t think that
I think of our happiness
We have only started
Don’t think it will end
Don’t think he will end
He’s here
He is fine
So should I
But part of me
Is still scared
I’m still pale as the moon
I’m still trembling
I’m still crying
My tears has become
Hot as my cheeks
My eyes has become
Bloodshot
And my heart has become
Broken
