Courtney Violette Poems

My emotions run out of my headphones.
So many things I wish I could say
That is said for me in these songs
I repeat with heart.
...

People crying, others dieing.
A hectic mess, already with press.
America's rejected, terrorist detected.
War at hand, we had no plan.
...

Cut out the happiness, you said you wanted the truth right?
Cut out the smiles, slap on the cuts.
Slice up that picture, like you did your arm.
You never cared about this life.
...

Hello, stereo
you’re my only friend.
You know
I don't need them
...

Hopefully this feeling will pass
I’m not feeling like myself.
Out of body, looking in,
Out of my mind, I’m going insane.
...

A classic story of teenage love.
Boy likes girl,
Girl likes boy.
Boy asks girl out,
...

I feel this pressure
Everyday to be perfect
My hair
My clothes
...

Moon sets, sun rises.
Casting the sky in hues
Of pink, orange and blue
...

My heart
My heart is beating.
But I can barely tell.
My heart is sinking.
...

I lie awake,
Waiting for the nightmare.
It comes ever night,
My heart is full of fear.
...
