Joi Jones Poem
Taken
My own life
Buried 6 feet under
Under the humiliation
Under the laughter
Under the teasing
Under the thought that I am less of a person
That I am less of person
That I should be less of me
My casket is a broken cocoon
My mind finally at peace
My parents siblings and family all stand to there feet
The gospel is spoken
I'm lifted up to heaven
When I've awoken
I'm just back in hell again

Joi Jones Poem
Pull me into the tide
But don't pull me under
Keep me out of the rain
But let me hear the thunder
The grip of life pulls me closer to death
Why is living so confusing
Yet it's so simple to die
I want to tell you how I feel
I tried to tell you
But my tears drowned my thoughts
The word wanted to jump out of my mouth
Just like I wanted to jump
Just like i wanted to overdose
Slit my wrist, cry, and forget
It's that simple
Everything is gone

Joi Jones Poem
Who are you
Like the days you change
Maybe you are the product of my destruction
My lies, tied to broken promises
Merged together with our most painful memories
Ashes as the sand and lava as the waves
You as my breathe
I'm poisoned by the thought
That I did this to you

Joi Jones Poem
This love is like nothing I've ever felt before
I feel like a fat kid in a candy store
The way we laugh and stare each other
Let's me know I want you for forever
The only reason I fall asleep
Is so that maybe you could be in my dream
Like the lights that shine on Christmas eve
You brighten up my day with just a thought or a memory
Our love is something special
Something no one can take away
Our love is a dark night that has been turned into day
Our love is the titanic
Although we may sink
Our love will always be held in our memories
If you were an angel I would be the wings
If you were a bee I would the sting
If you were sail I would be the boat
If you were a root beer I would be the float
Without you my life is pointless
I'm just a fish in the sea
Waiting for someone to catch me
Without you I'm just legs without feet
I'm falling down
Please catch me
Our love will last forever and ever
You are the salt and I'm the pepper

Joi Jones Poem
Holdin on to the last piece of my heart
Keep your eyes open even when it's dark
You stole a part of me and tried to give it back
But I thought I saw the light right before the crack
I don't want what you have to offer; you've given me enough
I'd rather fall asleep then to fall in love

Joi Jones Poem
Everything reminds me of you
The beach
And the way you waved... goodbye
The way you waved goodbye....
Reminds me of how I made you cry
Sorry for the pain I caused you
Sorry that you still loved me
Even when I hurt you... you forgave me
Why?
Was it love, was I blind
But the funny thing is I'm happier now
I'm happier
But the funny thing is you don't even care
You've moved on
And that kills me inside
That burns my soul
You once made me whole
But now you just leave hole
So this is my goodbye..... to you
And my hello to me
The new me

Joi Jones Poem
I can feel the heavy shadows as they wonder through the tunnels of my soul
The reflection of them..... are unknown
The sounds I once listened to don't sooth my old spirit
But even the deaf people I once knew can truly hear it
The tears I once cried now quench my thirst
The last girl that I loved is really my first
