This looks like a thread on poetry ... but it isn't so i have posted it here.
Being a writer and poet i come in contact with fellow writers and poets from around the world on a daily basis ...
One of them is Kit Kat (obviously not her real name) ... a young american poet of only fifteen who comes from a broken home and is going thru all the usual trials and tribulations that are experienced by young women of her age ... in fact due to many other issues she is most likely going thru a bit more than the "usual" problems ...
She feels unloved because she is "different" and is under the impression that she is looked upon as a freak ... she dresses like a goth ... has piercings and like most teenagers her age ... wants to be respected by her peers ...
In my opinion ... and i have some experience in this regard ... she is a remarkable poet who puts her troubled thoughts onto paper in a quite breathtaking way ...
Perhaps those of you with teenage sons and daughters might want to read Kit Kat's poetry ... you might learn quite a bit about your own children by doing so ...
She has given me permission to post her work here so ...
Here are some of Kit Kat's poems ¦ the first two were written when she was 14 ¦ the others at 15 ¦.
Oh and no ... she isn't the same girl with the drugs and cutting problem ...

Sick
Sick of it all
Don't see the point in living
Not anymore
As despair hardens my heart
Everytime I get close to love
Close to that person
Close to "the one"
They evaporate, they leave
Say they never loved me anyway
Say, I'm too much,
Too ****ed up, too secretive,
Just too ****ing much
Does this mean
I'll be alone forever
Bitter with choking memories
Stuck in my loneliness
While everyone else
Seems sorted into pairs
Out of place
Faces from my past
Guys matched up
With other girls
That aren't me
So sick of everything
Of this stupid life
That's not worth living
Screams bouncing around
In the black hole that is my skull
Unable to concentrate
Through this haze
Of everything
This lovestarved existance
Don't know why I'm here
Can't find a purpose
Sunk into despair
Wishing I couldn't feel
Too bad, here comes to pain again
Like an illness, a cancer,
This feeling spreads through me
I try not to let it, but somehow it does
I'm sick...
Memories
stuck in the memories
i wish i never had
of those times when
i was too small and
id run to my bedroom
and cry and wish that i could
be someone else
rather than the person
that i was and am
today
stuck remembering
all the times
i couldnt be in the house
young but old
enough to know the smell
of alcohol and the way
she walked the way
she talked when she
was drunk
and ready to blame me
for all her problems
to abuse me because
im here
remembering when
i couldnt breathe
i couldnt speak
i didnt know why
i was in pain
i am in pain
wanting to escape
but never could
all i could do
was remember and dream
of a time when i
was someone else
but the dreams
always faded back
into the reality
of her hand
slamming me into another
wall because i exist
and its all my fault
even though i dont know
what i did
and here come the memories
once again

You’ll Never Know
youll never know
how much you hurt me
ill never show you
ill just laugh
and pretend it doesnt matter
that you tore my heart to pieces
that you have another girl
that i dont matter to you
nothing else matters to me
but ill never show you my real feelings
ill just keep it all inside
youll never know
just what youve done to me
ill smile, pretend it doesnt hurt
while i bleed inside
youll never see
my sensitive side
not ever again
you were just a bad discision
i dont want to talk to you
not anymore
even though love lingers on
oh i still love you
yes im still in love
but that, youll never know
Broken Glass
our love just broke
like shattered glass
devestating, painful, tearing me to shreds
and here i am, left alone
to pick up the pieces
each silvery, glittering fragment
cutting my already bloodied fingers
i dont know what went wrong
were you that unhappy
that without any sign
with a crash, you break my heart?
i mean it when i said
"i love you"...i still do
did you? do you?
without warning
the beautiful art work of glass
that was our love
split into a million
irrepaiarable, shiny pieces on the floor
will it ever be whole again
our beautiful, glimmering love?
you say you still love me
but do you?
i wish there was something more
for me to hold on to
for you to hold on to
you say we can be back together soon
but do you mean that?
whats the point of all of this?
theres nothing to do
but try and piece together
the shattered glass
of our relationship
cut my fingers on all the pieces
wonder how and why this happened
and cry by my self.
Vampiric Desire
wait in the darkness
feel salty blood drip tantalizingly
from your fingers
lick it up, savor the sweet taste
fullfilling your thirst, your desire
your victim falls to the ground
pale, cold still; lifeless, bloodless, limp
you sigh and move on
into dark satiny night
search for another one
you smell living veins, filled to bursting
with warm, fresh, tantalizing blood
you want it -- you need it
slice open their veins, drink them dry
before they even realize youre there.
smile, blood sliding wetly down your chin
barely satisfied now
but still exhiliarated from the kill, the hunt
blood is all you want, Death is what you crave
but you will never die
only those you feast upon
so, then,
let your vampiric desires take over
kill without a second thought
drink without a care
let them all die for your thirst
this is what you are
that is what you crave
you need it more than ever now
excited by the kill
the taste of blood lingers in your mouth
this takes over
this, your vampiric desire
it makes you inhuman,
it makes you immortal
this, your vampiric desire.
This is the latest by Katie ...

you're looking beautiful today.
don't you know your absolutely lovely?
i love the way your voice sounds...
speak to me, i want to hear your words
tell me everything.
shut your mouth, i cannot stand you
every word is like an insult
i want to slap your face
just to see your shock and pain
and if you died i'd laugh
sunshine, daisies, golden beauty.
how have you been?
speak the truth, or speak lies
it's all the same
if i could just be with you
for another minute, another hour,
i don't mind if i'm with you
get away from me
if i see you another second i will snap
psychotic outbursts moments away
move back, stop talking,
don't you smile anymore
i'll wait and break you down
but just shut up
we're going insane.

:-1 What are we doing in this world. All the advancements, all the technology, all in this new age of wonder pppffftt. We are killing one another and we are raising children full of despair and insecurity.
No one loves unconditionally nowadays do they...
