Crystal Johnson Poems

Sing me a deadly lullaby, you better make it soft and sweet.
Hypnotize me, mesmerize me,
Put this broken heart to sleep.
Let me close my eyes, and let me rest inside your arms.
...

Down the road of destiny
you see your future life
you see your future children
and you see your future wife
...

She goes to school each morning
With bruises on her face
Clothes that are not matching
And shoes that are not laced
...

What did I do wrong here, daddy?
What did I say to make it end?
Why can't you just love me, daddy?
Why are you stuck in a life that's pretend?
...

Last night I had a dream of you
We were walking down a beach
Everything felt so perfect
My life just felt complete.
...

You cant reach the unreachable
you'll never reach the sky
you'll never make your dreams come true
but go ahead and try
...

I'm not the girl you think I am
You're blinded by my smile
I have so much to tell you
Sit down, this will take a while
...

This is for the nice girls that are overlooked,
Who become friends and nothing more.
Who spend hours trying to fix their personality,
Their looks, and their actions because obviously it must be that they are doing something wrong.
...

I see the way you look at her,
Like she’s the example of perfection, there in the flesh.
I see the way you long to be with her,
You stare at her hands as if they’re yours to hold.
...

I watched the sunset pass me by
And I whispered your name into the sky
I couldn't take it so I closed my eyes
And screamed my last good-bye.
...

You act like I'm invisible
When you see me in the hall
I know that you're ignoring me
'Cause I'm different from you all
...

I tried to spread my wings and fly
But I crashed into a wall
It seems like every time I try
I fail and then I fall
...

Dont cry my children
You're safe with me
Your chains are broken
You now are free
...

14.

Sometimes I wake up screaming
I'm terrified of dreams
They remind me of what I'll never have
And now I cannot sleep.
...

I pray each night before I sleep
I hope it does some good
I cry and plead to bring you back
But God wont listen like he should
...

16.

This is for every girl that has gossiped about me.
This is for every boy that has ever broken my heart.
This is for all the friends that I thought I had, but in the end just turned out to be backstabbers.
This is for all the people that told me I couldn’t make it.
...

17.

I am unwanted.
No matter where I go, I always screw things up.
I am alone.
I could be in a room full of a thousand people and still be all by myself.
...

I look into the mirror, ashamed of what I see.
I'm looking at the face of someone I don't want to be.

I stare into the glass and I have this continuous urge to break it.
...

I look at this girl before me
She's familiar, yet unknown
She's reaching out to touch me
She's abandoned and alone
...

Looking through the window,
I'm urged to break the glass.
I hate their perfect smiles
And how they always seem to last.
...

The Best Poem Of Crystal Johnson

*untitled*

Sing me a deadly lullaby, you better make it soft and sweet.
Hypnotize me, mesmerize me,
Put this broken heart to sleep.
Let me close my eyes, and let me rest inside your arms.
Bewilder me, confuse me, and let me open up my heart.

Feed me lies and pour me tears, its becoming an addiction.
Hold me close, and then push me away,
I’m starving for your affection.
Your kiss is filled with poison, it’s become my new obsession.
Smile at me, then glace away, I struggle for your attention.

Dance with me in the thunder, as it sings its pain filled tune
It’s my suicidal melody that’s been somewhat overused.
It’s the theme song to the lonely, to the broken, and abused.
To the beaten, to the friendless, to the hurting and the used.

Break it to me gently, don’t let the secret out just yet,
Don’t tell me you don’t love me, don’t you say I’m a regret.
Don’t say the thunder played for me, to put this girl to rest,
Don’t say it was my lullaby, I’m not tired just yet.

You didn't toy with my emotions, or mess with all my feelings.
Isn’t that what you guys do? It’s your form of brutal beatings.
You forgot to say you loved me, and you didn’t look in my eyes.
You forgot to lead me on a bit, I have yet to buy your lies.

So go on, just a little more, and I’ll be in the palm of your hand.
I just might fall in love with you, but I’m sure you’ll understand.
I’ll fall and you wont catch me, but I’m sure that was your plan.
But soon I will come back to you, I’ll be more than you can stand.

So listen to the music, my darling, it still is far from over.
I'll keep you safe from heartbreak, I'll be standing over your shoulder.
This masterpiece will force you into a deep and peaceful slumber.
After all, dear boy of mine, you are listening to the thunder.

It will tell a depressing story, as you start to fall asleep,
So lay your head to rest, my love.
and you’ll soon be mine to keep.
