I took a slow walk onto the stage
I saw the crowd
As the room became a cage
i wanted to scream so loud
But they keep staring
Those of every age
thinking ill make them proud
I forgot what to say
What i was there for
I wanted to lie and go away
But that would later kill me more
I had to stay
And say what i wrote
Hoping the room will ignore
Everything i have to say

Sealed and Silenced (Watty Awards 2012)
My name has been forgotten, tossed away like a piece of trash. I do not talk. I do not look anyone in the eyes. My hands shake from my past and I barley sleep at night. I always hear the grunts and the groans of the men that abuse me. I see the insanity in their eyes. They see the fear in mine. I had a chance to escape. I took it but it landed me back in the same position. It seems like I will never escape.Complete
God of Death
Blurb I don't know how to feel. I don't know how to fall. I see blur faces and hear voices from my past. Past, I don't even remember. I don't know who I am. All I see is a picture perfect meticulously created life. A life which wasn't even mine to begin with. I'm an imposter. And he will be my sinner.

Wings of Butterflies
Hoping to shake this human off once and for all, I twisted my body around rapidly with a plan to put my words into action. When I was on my way to push this man as deep into the floor as possible my body all of the sudden went rigid. When my body froze solid, so did my brain. It took me several seconds to get out of my trance and when I finally did, all that was running through my mind were two words. Those eyes. All of the feelings that I had been hiding for the last 160 years were now coming crashing down on me. They were literally shooting out from this human's eyes like fire. A fire that burned into my core.Complete

Alcohol, Sex, And Lies
"Go! I don't want to get anymore hate on twitter for making you late to the concert!" Jayy furrowed his eyebrows at me and looked confused."Wait, more hate? Are you-" My eyes widened as I realized what I had said. "Nothing, gotta go, bye!" I shut the door in Jayy's face quickly. I heard him call my name a few times angrily before it was silent. I leaned against the door, only to jump away from it when I felt a thump hit the door and an angry cry. I waited a few moments before sliding against it and sitting on the floor. I put my head in my hands and let a few stray tears run free. Why couldn't anything in my life be simple? I hope to God that Jayy wasn't the one that punched the door.Complete
Numbers That Follows
I have never felt so close and yet so far away from anything before. I could hear people yelling, they noticed I was gone. I have been locked up for so long I forgot what the forest felt like. Full of life and green. By the time someone notices they are heading the wrong way, it will be too late. My plan was to escape, run south for a bit, then circle back to my prison. As soon as they followed the scent south, I would run north. I could hear a river north, so I would run to the river then wade up stream so the scent would be lost. Find somewhere safe to cross, then take off, continuing north. My heart is pounding so hard I am afraid my captures could hear it and ruin the whole plan.Complete

"You're never meant to be here." I said quite softly. She gulped. "What do you mean?" her voice is shaking, I can tell. She's curious but I know she's afraid to know the truth. "You people were never meant to be here. If it wasn't for me." I cursed myself. It was the truth. "You didn't do anything." I looked at her straight. "Exactly. I did nothing to satisfy them. If only I'd show that I'd fight back and show them pain, like they wanted me to. But, I didn't."Complete
