Poetry

I think of lines I'd like to try
For that day that I will die
I'd like to say them from a cloud
As I wear that final shroud

We all do know that day will come
That we'll lie down, our days are down
We'll see our life before our eyes
We'll shed a tear, and then some cries

I always wondered how I'll be
For that day, that he calls me
Am I ready for my fate
As it draws near, I want to wait

I'll look around and try to see
Who's really there, and there for me
Cause all my life, I have had friends
Lets see who comes, as my life ends

I'll close my eyes, my final breath
My body warms, I feel my death
Be it lights, or be it black
No matter what, I wont be back

The clock stops ticking.
I stand here.
Listening....
For what?
Nothing.

My black suit
Covers my exhausted body,
The color describing the event just before my return.
I cannot hear you, though I can feel your presence,
Though I know your existence is well beyond my reach.

Where have you gone?
Answer me, I'm breaking beyond my wildest expectations.
Believe me...aren't you thankful?
That I've witnessed your departure? That I cared for where you disappeared into mid-light?

Did you see me?
Erect upon the grass, not lying adjacent to you?
Did you wish for my warmth to bring life to your flesh?
The life I would have given you, was what you desired of me?
How can the darkness commingle with the light.

I do not, and will never exist as you did.
My jar of life is filled with filth from my garden.
The clock stopped ticking this very hour.
Make it tick once more.
I wanted you, I needed you. Your light is gone.

The clock stops ticking.
I stand here.
I listen.

BROKEN

Torn up and broken with no where to go.

Feeling so lonesome and feeling so low.

My soul has been tortured my body worn.

Sometimes I wish I had never been born.


Sitting in silence and wondering why.

Everything and everyone I love always must die.

The Rains of Summer

As I look up to yonder Sky,
Dark Clouds casting beyond the blue Sky.
Winds begin their eary cry,
Blowing leaf's from the dancing Trees.
Thunder begins to rumble,
Lightning striking,
Sky's tears begin falling
Winds tossing
Sky crying
Lightning striking,
Thunder rumbles nearer
The Clouds begin to dance
With the darkness of the tears
Unhappy romance
From all those past years.
Angry winds blowing,
Lightning striking

But then............
All comes to a calm,
No more Thunder rumbling,
No more tears from Sky
Lightning striking no where
Rays of hope begin to shine.
Casting down into the River Divine
Flowing Tears of yesterday's sorrow,
Hoping for a better tomorrow.
The sun begins to shine its warm ray
Clouds begin to depart
The grayness of its sorrow fading,
Into the daylight
Dissipating.
Alone I sit on the hillside
Tears no longer cry
From my own darkness to the light
forbidding goodbye.
Storms have past
into my future atlast

He dresses in every hue of blue
with his pair of thinning jeans
he is the boy
constantly flicking his ebony hair
out of those
gorgeously enticing blue eyes
which dance whith his inviting smile
the smile that lurks in the corners
of your memory
forever playing on your heartstring
like a foriegn harpist

you don't always notice him
his gentle nature
quietly watching you
as he slips through the back gate
he sldes up behind you
as your shifting through long lost memories
he wraps loving arms around you
entranced by your avid gazing into nothingness

but i
the foriegn girl
in a stranger's world
have looked beneath
this simple apparition of a lost adolesence
and seen the saving grace
which radiates from within

please rate
i welcome criticism
it makes me stronger


Something has happened to my name
something different
something deeper
than my mere physical presence

I am not the same person
as i was a month ago
as i was only days ago
i have been changed
by the eternity of time
like a canyon carved
by an ever flowing river

the water rushes through me
cutting me down until my trucore
my true heart
is exposed
for the world to gaze upon

Eternity beams down on us all
watching
a moon among stars
eternity is always changing
but always the same
guiding us, blinding us
watching us

something has happened to my name
i am not the same person

I pour my tea into the sapphire
porcelain teacup.
The world is quiet and I breathe

The steam thoroughly
And absorb.
Time passes by

Without a moment of worry,
Without a moment of hurry,
Without a moment of fuss.

The clocks ticks itself away,
Bringing my age along with it.
Every moment wasted, or spent?

The uncertainty is not apparant to me.
I enjoy the peace.
My legs, my mind, my strength

All need adequate rest.
The existence of perfection
Is not within the physical.

I am not a god,
Nor will I ever be.
Here, I hear my thoughts,

Every pulse of emotion
Is just beneath my skin.
It is quiet...

Very quiet.
I needed this time,
It is not wasteful.

"Love"

The love of the most innocent
Beyond measure and without consent
Is increasiningly common among
The dreams of the past.
Without the love of the child
That walks by your door every night
And sleeps by your side within
The cavities of your heartbroken
Soul,
The world pulses with delight
At the evanescent appearance of
The pure lily within our essence.
No mind
Is without love and
No heart
Without consent...
Contracts beneath the flesh,
Expected of today.
I am this child
Beneath your lie, beneath
Your mind of thoughts, not your tears, angst, or sacrifices.
Come back to me, your life is mine, as well as yours.
But tonight, lies will fade, and nothing exists between us.

Artificial light confuses,
Gypsy and diamondback moth,
Mock moons on a shifting horizon,

Pear tree perched swallows,
Feast on codling flutterers,

Cabbage and watercress,
Will not morn the loss,
Of such insatiable appetites.

They lie in there together
I lie in here alone
Why it has to be this way
I think I'll never know

I met a man
But couldn't stay
I loved him
But I ran away

Is this my fate
I'm not amused
What do I do
I'm so confused

So, this is the thing. This morning I realized that I've lost my paycheck and I locked myself out of my house and had to ask my Grammy to take me to my brother's work to get the house key. I feel like poo and would like a happy, funny poem to make me feel better.

Can you help?

Do you like poetry that has beautiful stanzas, yet the message is vague and able to apply to almost anything in a beautiful way, or would you prefer poetry that is straight forward as well as beautiful?

Little darling don’t you cry
I see that teardrop in your eye
Mommy had to go away
Maybe she’ll come back someday

Things do happen at our age
And sometimes its just a stage
Things that we will soon regret
But we never will forget

You know we had a fight
In front of you, it wasn’t right
So come closer little dear
I’ll wipe away that flowing tear

Daddy’s staying home today
I just can not just go away
As she looked up from her place
I saw a smile upon her face

Lets make a plan to spend our day
So hurry up, be on our way
To the park we will go
To watch the gentle waters flow

We’ll climb a mountain way up high
Closer to the golden sky
At the top, we’ll make a pact
That once a week, we will come back

Its you and me together now
We’ll make it thru. I know some how
Till mommy knows she shouldn’t flee
Be with us two, and always be

Distance is what our enemy be named. But no matter what, I think of you. I long to touch and feel your cheek against mine. I love you with a passion and no matter what it will stay. You are mine and that is what matters. You make me smile you make me laugh, and I dont care what anyone says. They can bend and break me until I snap in two, but forever I will love you.

As I float on a cloud high above the ocean floor. My mind begins to run in circles. I’m changing faster and faster. Running in many directions. So confused inside this wondering world. Many doors are closing behind me. Just waiting for the open door. Trying to open my heart to someone new. But the pain inside won’t leave. My past is so full and hard to let go. Everyone with their problems spilled all over the floor. Maybe I could change for the better. Right now I’m over my head in pain and my heart is broken in two. The bandage won’t heal it all. The wound is too deep to heal. Should I change for the better or worst? I know this hurts me to think. I’m in denial of luck or love. I’m floating on a cloud far above. In search of a true love.

Beautiful Eyes

Beautiful eyes
But they do not see.
So blind, so very blind...
How I give myself to thee
Pouring out my heart
A river.
A smile to hide the pain
I long to touch your face again...
Run my fingertips
Upon your saccharine skin.
I strive in vain
Through tears that fall
Such bitter rain.
To savor that sweet kiss
To feel you in my arms.
Just one more moment
Yet always does it seem
I miss...
Those beautiful eyes
They no longer seem to see
Only me.

latest poems!
My dreams of evil, fire, and death. Pain and anger, I'm loosing my breath. I'm holding on tightly as i start to slip. I hurry... To tighten my grip. I scream your name, scream for your help but apparently you only cared for yourself, and i can't hang on... My fingers are sweaty. My legs become heavy. Catch me when I fall.

Control me, put me on a leash and hold me. In one place, the same old thing, day after day. I know what you told me. Yes sir, I'll obey. Your "my" god! Is that what I should say? No, I'm not trying to play, this aint a game. Master just say and I will live my life in shame. Every day will be exactly the same, you tell me what to do and I will obey. Control me master. Put me in my place. Everything I do is a mistake and I should be blames. You've now got what you want. I'm yours. Control me.
