			<title>It's Fine, It's All Right, I'm Okay</title>
			<description>I'm so worried about someone I love right now and someone else I love told me to write to calm myself down. I wrote this. I can't think of anything else to write, so now I'm trying to occupy myself with posting it til I can.</description>

			<title>Ferret</title>
			<description>This poem should be rather strange to those who don't know my history or his. Ferret is a friend's internet name. I wrote this in a card that I sent him not long ago before he knew I loved him. </description>

			<title>Tame Me</title>
			<description>A poem written at 6:00AM after a night of comforting an internet friend I love with all my heart. His favorite book is the Little Prince, thus the reference to him taming me. He's said it before, that he tamed me, because he knows I love him.</description>

			<title>Message Me</title>
			<description>This is very short but means a lot to me. Currently have someone I love going through stuff I can't help with because of distance. Since he's the only person on my MSN messenger, this is the away message I've written for him. It's not much.</description>

			<title>Better</title>
			<description>A premature recovery song? I don't know. It wasn't meant to end happy, but chatting to someone who puts me in a good mood near the end changed it on me. I now know I've got Schizoid PD, and am in constant fear it will develop into full blown schizophrenia</description>

			<title>Self-Hate</title>
			<description>I don't know. I went off the deep end again. Did that write without stopping thing, only typed it. I fished this out. I usually rhyme half of it when I do this kinda thing anyways.</description>

			<title>Take My Hand</title>
			<description>A poem based off the sudden remembrance of what it was like being a lesbian girl. Specifically from the time around late elementary and early middle school. Fifth or sixth grade. There's a specific girl I had in mind while writing, too. My first crush on </description>

			<title>A is for Agnosticism</title>

			<title>My Puppet</title>
			<description>This was most likely inspired by the relationships I watched my mama partake in over the past 22 years. I was drunk when I wrote it, so I can't be sure. &gt;___&gt; I just got in this creative mood when everyone left me by myself. I also wrote half of my paper </description>

			<title>Love and Death in Literature</title>

			<title>Writer's Block</title>

			<title>Blossom</title>
			<description>This is the best of the many poems I found while cleaning out my bookbags today. It's like someone else wrote it's so old, but that just makes it easier to love even though I wrote it. X3 Take that low self esteem!  </description>

			<title>The Raven-Headed Man</title>

			<title>Schizophrenia </title>
			<description>I don't have Schizophrenia to the best of my knowledge, but I do see faces like a Schizophrenic is said to. I'm not sure. I've felt fairly insane today, and this is just segment of a song I sang in my head while sitting on the balcony for around eight hou</description>

			<title>Room With No Windows</title>
			<description>This is another poem from my vacation. Short verses keep coming spurts. The first two almost go together, but this one's a stand alone despite only being four lines. Just how I feel being trapped with my family for a week.</description>

			<title>We Embrace This Crime</title>
			<description>Another shoddy poem. I'm being lazy because I'm on vacation. X3 But this one was born of a confrontation with the rest of my family. I don't know why they have to watch the news or bring up cutlure and religion when they know I never agree with them. I th</description>

			<title>Sweet Mother Lie</title>
			<description>I'm on vacation in the TN mountains, and I'm sitting on the balcony of my hotel, staring at said mountains and the sky. I closed my eyes and typed this. I'm not going to bother editing it or trying to make it into something better.</description>

			<title>Alice</title>
			<description>This is not very good. I had insomnia and was up for two days when I wrote this last night....this morning at 4:00. ^^; Anytime I get insomnia, I always end up with Alice in Wonderland on the brain. It's weird.</description>

			<title>The Sting Remains</title>

			<title>Alone</title>
			<description>I don't do haikus often, but they can be fun from time to time. This one was pretty ... releasing, I guess. Funny how a simply five, seven, five can make you feel better sometimes. o__O;</description>

			<title>Alone in Madness</title>

			<title>Ode to Algebra</title>

			<title>Shatter</title>

			<title>My Closet</title>

			<title>Redirected Rage</title>

			<title>Futility</title>

			<title>Crime : I am!</title>
			<description>I don't know. I guess this one was spurred by a conversation with my art teacher. She was shocked at some of the persecution my many differences in a conservative small town have caused me to endure. The crime of being me, I suppose.</description>

			<title>Perfect?</title>
			<description>XD This is the second poem I've written in Introduction to Computers today. This one's a bit of a ramble, not really about me for the most part. Inspired by a German song. &quot;Perfekt&quot; by Die Arzte. Look 'em up. X3 Songs much happier than my poem. The word p</description>

			<title>Boredom</title>
			<description>This was written in math because I hate it and get bored there easily. You oughta see the original page. I cross-hatched virtually the whole thing aside from two math problems and the poem itself. X3 The preview picture isn't me, by the way. Found the pic</description>
