Singin' to Myself

01:41 Sep 30 2009
Times Read: 531


Oh I the cold and lifeless stone

Need to feel the rain that

Keeps passin' over me

To follow the birds across the sky

And seek a shadow at Mid-day



But how will I know

What I'm feelin' is right

And how will I know

I'm feelin' at all?



Oh I the cold and lifeless stone

Have been shaped for the needs

of others

To the point of knowin'

My name just temporary

Feel Happy

22:09 Sep 27 2009
Times Read: 532


Feel happy all the time

Then see what happens

When you feel something

Else



An Emotion you can’t really control

Anger that makes you seek the kill

Or the pain of another

Sadness that feels weighted in your chest

Above your heart

Sinking it down to the stomach’s level



Should we feel these feelings all the time or just every now

And then

Should we pay tribute the feelings we were given

Or just sell them away



Think about it

And if you find the answer

Then tell me

I might need it

Break And Penetrate

22:08 Sep 27 2009
Times Read: 533


Break



It must have taken

All her life

To make that heart of gold

Such a caring, open heart

But then again… if you look

A caring heart is really

Gold glass…

So fragile, rare, a prize

And she gave it to me…

What shall I do with it





Penetrate



It must have taken

A single minute

To build up that wall

A heart of cold, gray stone

Missing a familiar beat

So common… strong, trash

And she kept it from me

What shall I do to it

Night

22:07 Sep 27 2009
Times Read: 534






A few more moments

Then I can play

The daylight colours will be gone

A different set

Of myriad pastels

That brush across the open sky

From the deepest greens

To lightest blacks

Who could have seen this

Wonderful way to bring

The differences together

But of course,

Even I

Can’t play in complete darkness

You need some lights

Just to sprint and flash

Across the open sky

Several little spotlights

For me to jump between

To and from

I dance to the fullest

For the night only lasts

So long. Goodbye

Before the colours I love

Brighten to a lighter shade

Of Autumn’s scene

Now I must hide

This night is over

For now…Waiting

Hope

02:13 Sep 23 2009
Times Read: 538


My name

That feeling

The last thing in Pandora’s box

Something you wish

To inspire me

Good Luck.

It’s not an easy task

Why couldn’t have Pandora

Released it from

Confinement

To have it disappear

Away from our hearts

But again you’re a hunter

You caught it with such

Grace and Determination

Now you’ve wrapped

It up all nice

And as a gift

Trying to get silly me

To accept

Good luck

Happiness

20:30 Sep 20 2009
Times Read: 540


Happiness is that fleeting

Butterfly, something that is

Always changing

Be gentle with happiness

It will lightly lay

On the tip of your fingers

Appreciate it while you can

For if you expect it to stay forever

Then you really are a fool

I heard happiness was a

Butterfly, so true

Let the lesson be learned

That though it may be within

Your grasp now

Just resting within your palm

It needs to stretch its wings

Now and then

It will leave you

Leaving small trails of its wings

As a reminder of what was

To last you through its

Absence

I guess its okay to be afraid

Now that it’s one

But don’t fret

Happiness will always come

Landing just gracefully

Angels

20:28 Sep 20 2009
Times Read: 541


I wish to see angels

Here upon the earth

Free from-

Impossible I guess to be

Free from pain

My- and

Your- and

The world’s

Suffering



That does come for

The briefest love

A moment or two

Of hope



Angels appear in

Mortal form

Of hugs and

Tears

Welcome to the Library

03:14 Sep 18 2009
Times Read: 552


Fall Down

My feathered friends

And place the crown

On these once gone trends



Rejoice now

And all the times for it

Down you bow

For you're in the presence of silent speakers

Whose speech will make you fall not sit



These are books

The masters of things we cannot say

They judge by the shine of our minds, not our looks

Cradle one and down we lay



The pages turn open by the breeze

First voices pull you in

Do not fear, they're here to please

Just sacrifice your time, go on pay the fine

It's worth it, slip into the ease....



Welcome...

Haven

23:42 Sep 14 2009
Times Read: 556


Heaven is the place to go

After you die

Haven is the step before

After all the safe ground

With its purpose crumbling

Empty stonewalls towering

Low rivers running away

Cats of peril choose to rest

Or the old dog is asleep

Minute more, second more

Else more is gone

Forgive?

Oh no, never! That’s not human

Opal stars stare you down

Long away is just here

Simply the place where we hid…

Tears

23:41 Sep 14 2009
Times Read: 557


Sadness is painted along the skies

Comes together, then flows into out salt-crusted eyes

It's at times like these with shallow prayers

We wonder if God truly cares

For comfort we come together in heated embraces

Cries to vapor rises to another breath; there it laces

Us; the people, with common reaping

Before we tried secret sowing for public keeping

Why not come out and speak truth to our separate selves

Tears will baptize us all together

Burning us up easy as a wind-traveled feather

Settle down and let the water find it's redden path

We'll find our own, like a lost calf

Now you're tired, so am I

Now you close your heavy eye

Now I follow you with a tired sigh

Now we say "Tears! Bye bye!"

Tears will rest... so will we...it's what's best...together in dreams...what will we see



Without tears...

Dawn

23:41 Sep 14 2009
Times Read: 558


And then the bells’

Ringing drifted through

The valley’s slope

Sweeping up the night

And settling down the

Sun’s presence

But then the liquid black

Slipped through the

Fingers and spilled out

Into the cracks

Where the bright-coloured

Dogs could not sniff out

The gold in pride

Burst up in flames

From highest peaking carnation red

To striking but simply white

This would only last till

The bells silenced…

Mourning

23:28 Sep 14 2009
Times Read: 560


When will I mourn for you, when is that allowed?

Why did this happen to make me mourn?

Who caused this?

Where will you and I go and does it have to be apart?



Questions drip like sorrow from my mind filling up my chest

Filling

Filling

Full...

Brimming

Overflowing



You can't control it but ...

would you really want to?

Do you want dry eyes of contempt where the heart grows crooked

Gnarled

Hateful

Because of Sorrow



Could my tears alone fill your grave

And carry you back to me?

Or was there no grave at all?

I was never told about the mark you left on the world

As a whole no one remembers your heart

They don't remember that you took mine....

Love and rest with dreams

While mine are of nothing...

Fear(the cause)

18:53 Sep 13 2009
Times Read: 566


Bread is scarce

I need as much as I can get

The baby of our group

She always asks for more

I gave here an old clothe instead

To fight against the cold

Of course

But I was supposed to help her

I Continued Her Fear



Marrying into nothing

I wasn’t given much

But I was given her

A small porcelain doll

She needed to be cleaned

Of course

Then broken

She must feel so dirty

I Continued Her Fear



Life just sucks

That I know

Some things make it better

And I know where to get it

The was new, very scared

Of course

She got new hope from the pay

But the feeling is still the same,

I Continued Her Fear

Fear(the victims)

18:52 Sep 13 2009
Times Read: 567


Cling to my shredded cloth

The wind is rising up

In speed and dropping

In chill

This Life has lasted

Far too long

My Only Fear is that it will continue



The new bed I was given

It’s so nice and soft

At first

But that new man in my life

He changed that

The bed is now warm and dirty

He changed

My? Life…

My Only Fear is that it will continue



I need the money

They said it paid well

A simple lookout… that’s all

The drop-off was past curfew

My first time out

Beware the police, they might

Round the corner and catch me

The guilt is overwhelming

My Only Fear is that will continue

Illusion

18:50 Sep 13 2009
Times Read: 568


Illusion



A trick of the eye

A mystery of minds

Together all confused

Up the wall and down

Again and then we bounce

Sanity

You had some?

That’s new!

Now we sprint across

Our dreams awake

Making up new ones

These stories we will tell

Forever and more

We’ll even say lies

Just for entertainment.

Time to pick a card

Any card, I say!

A game!

A gamble!

Oh I love being the master

These fools, they follow

The silly, common, and mortal

Folk, tales and spirit

Lights to confuse

Well…

Now you see me

Now you don’t…

Lamppost

18:49 Sep 13 2009
Times Read: 569


And the candlelight falters

Snow of lonely souls

Crying silently

Falls...

Silently...

A lamppost standing there

True with unfaltering candlelight

Time to go home

Children...

The Sadness

18:46 Sep 13 2009
Times Read: 571


The Sadness

When it comes

like now

Steals my voice

And leaves the rest

To drown

Failure failing

once again

The Worthless is

will always be

With all my laziness

I will not die

And I don’t know why

SORRY, Sorry, sorry…

Is all I wish to utter

If only I could

For now it rains

And that makes me

Sad….

Sad…

Sad.

Not True

Not True



My life story is one I’ll never tell

Nothing’s wrong

See my smile?

It’s so wonderful and happy

That’s all you’ll ever need to know

My father doesn’t beat me

My mother doesn’t scorn me

Nothing’s wrong

With my life

It’s perfect in every way

Right?

You believe me right?

Good.

My smile is all you need to know

It’s pure

Not hallow

Not untrue

I made my smile

One would call it a mask

I don’t

It’s real

This perfect life

Right?

Please tell me it is

Why do I have to wake up?

It may not be true,

But it’s all I have

The Past

02:55 Sep 13 2009

The Past

Is a fat rich man

A glutton who gets everything

Who gets all he can

He gets it all without a fuss

It’s true I say

I say!



That second there

Say goodbye

The previous blink from your eye

No more

Sucks up your breath

That's you just let go



Everything’s his

Death even fears him

Runs away he does



Not a picky eater,

Swoops and swallows hole

Yet to see him wipe his mouth

There! Pluto dripped off his nose!

And another universe went sliding off his chin!



The Past is a glutton

Everything is his

Time, your breath, and even

Death

And there you see

Your thoughts of this poem just went to!
