Tears My Heart Sheds by Ayame Yamamoto (free children's ebooks pdf .txt) 📖

/> They might blame you
But really you had no choice.
They might blame the alcohol,
But you alone know the truth
And dead men tell no tales.


Loved Me

Hold me gently,
Kiss me slowly.
I want you to know
That you mean the world to me
I wish this could last forever,
But that can’t happen.
So enjoy it while you can
And leave me wanting.
It hurts but I don’t mind,
As long as you loved me.


War Theory

I looked for the moment, it never came,
Searched for an answer
To the endless problem
And I found none.
Frustration hurts, but hatred hurts more.
I don’t understand
And you can’t explain.
So I’ll shoot at you
And you’ll stab me in the back
Because that’s what friends do.


Not Again

I would rather live with
A rancid gut wound
Than spend one more day
In the presence of you
I think I would prefer
A rabid dog or feral cat
To your stinking breath
And your pale white skin.
I will not give in to you,
Not again; never again.


Rose Red

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
I would never make fun of you,
But you continue to mock me
And make me feel stupid.
I only ever trusted
Those who did not deserve my trust.
How could I be so naive?
I can only love
Those who won’t return it.


Best Friends

A promise is a promise
I am always here for you
But where have you gone
You were right here,
Did you get distracted?
You promised too,
Well where are you now
When I really need you?
I would cry out for help
But I know no one is there.


Look Down

Look down here
Please look at me?
I miss you so much;
It still hurts to think about you
And to know I can’t talk to you
But look down at me
Just like when I was little
See what I’m doing
Keep loving me like
I still love you.


You Think You Know A Guy

Have you ever had that friend?
Best guy you ever saw;
Life of the party, and such
Says things that leave you in awe.

Have you ever dated that friend?
Shared all your secrets and dreams;
Fell for your best friend,
Bursting with love at the seams.

It feels so natural at first
You and him, him and you;
Feels like this will last a lifetime
But the lie cannot continue

The pair is broken apart
Your heart now divided in two.
Forever a reminder in your mind
Of what you both used to do.

I had that friend,
I dated that friend,
I fell for that friend
But the lies had to end.
And I will never be the same again.


Cry For Help

Please think first, act last.
Don’t do anything you will regret.
All those feelings are a thing of the past,
Why can’t you let go and forget?

Stop. Por favor.

You think there is no other way,
You think that no one cares.
No matter what I’m going to stay
To help you drive away your fears.

Stop. Por favor. Spring nicht.

I really did mean what I said,
You mean a lot to me, it’s true;
I would break if you were dead.
What can I say to convince you?

Stop. Por favor. Spring nicht. Si prega di non morire.

You can get through this strife
I would stay by you forever.
There’s no reason to throw away life;
There's no reason whatsoever.

Stop. Por favor. Spring nicht. Si prega di non morire. Je t'aime


So Sorry

That is all you can say.
You’re sorry.
Sorry you lied
Sorry you carried on
When you knew we had no chance?
Sorry you don’t love me anymore
And you didn’t think to tell me?
Well I’m sorry too.
Sorry I stayed with your
Pathetic ass, just out of pity.


Powers of Invisibility

I have super powers
Strange powers, you see;
I can become invisible
Whenever I want to be.
No one can see me cry.
No one can hurt me anymore.
That’s good, right?
It’s good to be invisible;
No one sees my scars, but
No one can see me bleed either.


Because She Asked

The girl in this picture is dead.
Oh, she doesn’t look dead;
Not yet.
See, in this picture she is living
Breathing, seeing, even smiling;
But she’s dead inside.
How do I know?
The girl in that picture is also me.
And I killed her
Because she asked me to.


The Many Sides of Me

That girl you see; You think you know her.
But you don’t realise how ignorant you really are.
That girl in these pictures is not me.
I can tell you who she is.
She’s a part of me; a part that you can’t recognise.
The girl in that one is Rose.
She’s a smart girl;
And a goody-fucking two shoes.
Always on time, always polite.
That other girl is Jasmine.
See how she smiles,
All while she contemplates
Death and destruction.
This girl; this is Rosie.
The quiet one
The shy, scared little girl
Who will not speak to anyone.
This other one is Jazzy.
A crazy, fun-loving girl
Who can genuinely smile,
Who actually knows happiness.
This last picture is of Rose again;
But you can’t tell the difference.
You think you know me
But until you know all these girls
You can’t understand who I am.


Prison Sentence

Marks on a stick,
Just to pass time
Marking my days
In this cold dark cell:
Count’em.

One
She never thinks
I have problems too
She doesn’t really care
It’s all about her.

Two
It can only get worse
Rejected yet again
By the one person
I actually thought cared.

Three
I am completely alone
But I don’t understand
Why you twist the knife
And pull the fresh stitches.

Four
No one notices
I don’t matter to them
They have their own
Shit to deal with.

Five
The day gets darker
Or is my vision is fading?
Never mind, this is better
I finally feel like myself.

Marks on a stick,
Just to pass time
Marks on my arm
To feel like myself
Marking my days
In this cold dark world:
Count’em.

Neutral Poems

In Other Words

All the little things
That make you insufferable
Are all things that make you
So dear to me.
All the little things the others hate
That’s what I love about you.
All the little things
That make you such an ass…
In other words
I put up with your bullshit.


Misunderstandings

I could write endless poems
About life, love, death, sadness,
And you would not understand
Because you were never understood.
I could explain that
You have no influence on me
Because I know you’re
Just as frightened and confused.
But you would not acknowledge
That I’ve seen through your mask.


Some Mistake

This is where I belong.
A cool breeze set
Against the scorching sun;
Walking through the trees
Taking in the color and sounds,
Listening to the wind and rain.
You might not understand
But I know in my heart
That there was some mistake
I belong where there is freedom.


Everything’s Fine

I say I’m okay
But you know it’s not true
It’s not all right
But I don’t want to say it.
I can’t tell you
What’s really happening;
You wouldn’t listen the first time
Why would you help me now?
Everything is fine
Now let’s go on with our lives.


So What?

You wasted your life
Raising me, so what?
I’m not the one who
Got pregnant in college.
You’re unhappy
Because you never got anywhere.
So what? I didn’t ask for this.
Anyone can have a baby
It takes character to be a parent
More so than you are to me.


Trust Issues

I know I seem unfriendly
But I can’t act any different.
You probably had a nice childhood,
No reason to fear;
You have to realize
Not everyone had that.
Some of us knew foes
Before we had friends.
That’s why I am this way
You have to earn my trust.


Favorite Classmate

When we’re in a quiet classroom,
Calmly doing our work.
You are the class clown
That makes everyone laugh
Even the kid you just insulted.
During a class discussion
You always have something to say.
And my only response when you
Comment on my clothes is
“Dude, you’re a dick.”


We Are All Stars

You think you affect me
When you give me that hateful glare;
You think I am jealous
When you turn and flip your hair?

You think you are special
But we are one and the same
You may think you are a star –
Well, yeah, you are.
We are the same, all stars,
And all stars burn out and die.

You think you can hurt me
By saying hateful things;
You think I will care about you
When we are both alone here?

You think you are great
But we are one and the same
You may think you are a star –
Well, yeah, you are.
We are the same, all stars,
And all stars burn out and die.

You think I give a shit
That your hair looks better;
And I couldn’t care less
Who your boyfriend is.

You think you are better
But we are one and the same
You may think you are a star –
Well, yeah, you are.
We are the same, all stars,
And all stars burn out and die.


Look Down (Funny Version)

Look down here
Please look at me?
I know you don’t think
Much of me.
You used to be so absorbed
In learning to tie me in knots;
Now you do it without even trying.
You think you can forget me?
I’ll show you.
Look down before I trip you.


Sisters Are Forever

Sisters are forever
So forget it, you’re stuck with me.
I will always be here:
To steal your clothes,
To embarrass you
In front of your friends,
To get in your face
When you’re being a bitch
To hold you when you cry,
To tell you everything will be okay.


My Own Person

I am my own person,
Although I come from many.
I am a part of many nations
And also my own country.
I sometimes will hear people
Accusing someone of being
Just like their father, mother,
Brother, sister, aunt, uncle.
But only I see that
They are their own person.


Small Smiles

What gets me through
A dreary day
Is knowing that you
Have not forgotten me.
Who I am, and
What you once saw in me.
I know we have both changed
But what makes it seem okay
Are those small smiles we exchange
That
