My story in 140 characters? That's absurd! I can't tell a story with limited room for that cuts my ability to express my love for writing!

Zappy99 in Poetry & Free Verse

Currency

I can't wait for the Day where dollar bills become bookmarks and air becomes currency. 

For the day where hate is minimal and acceptance is abundant. 

I can't wait for they day where people are not

conformed to society's standards and that desieses are extinct. 

For the day where we are truly free 

And living peacefully.

The man.

And I said to the man

Why must you treat me this way

What have I done to deserve this

And the man says simply

You have done nothing.

So I ask again and he replies with the same answer.

Why must you treat my horribly

And he says

Because I want to.

This is who we are. This is what we do. We are human and we have a right to be rude.

I look at him tears in my eyes.

It's not fair...it's Not human sir.

And he goes to say another word but instead he smacks me.

You filthy slut

He says

Because I'm a virgin

But I'm a slut anyways.

The man walks away

I lay there

Goodbye world

It was quite the ride.

Mulțumesc

Thank you my friend

For not giving up on me when I left.

Thank you my friend

For telling me you'll be back again.

Thank you for staying when I needed you

And thank you for having patience when I was stubborn.

I know I'm not the best person on this planet

But the least I could do was say thank you

Mulțumesc prietenul meu.

IM SORRY

I want you to know that I wouldn't be writing this if I didn't care...The meds don't seem to work anymore. If I miss a day or two the feelings don't change and I don't seem to want to take them either.

So mama, I'm sorry that I couldn't make you happy

daddy, I'm sorry I didn't stick around much

Step mom, I'm sorry I didn't tell you how much I really loved you

Stepdad that goes for you too

My brother and sisters, I'm sorry I didn't hang around more often.

Dalton, The love of my life I am so sorry that you had to deal with such a horrible person.

Grammy and Papa, I'm sorry I wasn't there to make you guys smile more

Nate, I'm sorry I wasn't a better cousin

Gaggie and Papa, I'm sorry I didn't see the simple things in life like you tried to get me to do.

My aunts and uncles, I'm sorry I didn't check in as often as I should have.

To everyone else I'm sorry that I didn't mention, I know who you are and I think about you a lot but I never made an effort to say hello or to tell you that you mean so much to me. I don't want anyone to have to deal with someone as depressed and anxious as I have been for the past 7 years. Please forgive me for what I am about to do and know that I'll be it's great grandpa once again. He will take care of me.

I love all of you

I'm sorry

goodbye

Jess...

Where have you gone?

I still write to you, but I don't know what for.

I still wish upon some silly shooting star.

I stare at the wall for hours, dreaming about that day.

They day you told you told me goodbye, and walked down that long hallway.

I still have the note you wrote me, from seventh grade.

And I still wait for the phone call you promised on that day.

But who's to know where you are...I just hope your not amongst one of the...shooting stars.

What thoughts go through your mind at night?

The questions of the night.

Why is a life worth living so hard to live?

Everyone hopes for world peace, but no one uses peaceful actions to achieve this goal, where has humanity gone wrong?

Run amongst the stars with me.

I wish she could run with me,

Amongst the stars.

Run along the constellations,

Because every star has a story to be told,

Every star is a city of gold.

She's not okay, I see her every day

Crying

Lonely

I just wish she would stop worrying. Stop worrying and run amongst the stars I say.

Once you do that, the pain will go away.

Love,

Yours truly. We will meet again soon, in another life, live this one. Don't end it tonight.

I thought.

And I thought

I thought

That you would be that one guy.

That wouldn't turn your back

But I was wrong

And now I'm gone.
