Stephanie Blodgett Poems

You can’t always run you know
Ghosts of the past will always fallow
It doesn’t really matter where you go
Just know that they will eat you hollow
...

I hold the bloody Katonah in my hand
Over the red river do I stand
As my body grows weak and my knees give in
I feel the fear crawl beneath my skin
...

I have many names
Only one is fear
This is my game
I am everywhere
...

Standing…
The ledge is so close
The fall so far
Looking down at the world
...

What is new in this world
When everything has been said
I’ve never known what to say
Only how to say it
...

The candlelight illuminates the room
Holes in flesh, the burned emptiness
My mind is the deepest plume
And I will plummet to my doom
...

The black flesh will tear and the dark blood will flow
So much hate, the sharp pain raises form below
As he bleeds out the ones closest to him will go
They scream and sob, they will all die slow
...

It wouldn’t go loud enough
The music I mean
Never seems to go loud enough
To sooth my painful screams
...

There was a girl
She walked these streets
No one loved her
They thought she was a freak
...
