S.O.C.
There's so much in this world I don't understand,
When all I wanted was to hold your hand.
Be with you above all others,
Slip in beside you under the covers,
Live a life that I could be proud of,
Say goodbye to this lost world without love,
Take a stand and make my place,
Be a good part of the human race.
But then I take a hard look at me,
See that I can't be what you need me to be,
Dreaming, wishing, it could be different,
But left here standing holding this remnant,
Of things that never were and never will,
And today I stand here still.
Looking up from the remnant and thinking,
Wondering what happened and slowly sinking,
Into the mire with a broken spirit.
Something shattered, Did you hear it?
In a letter, written, folded, sealed,
Maybe my shattered something can heal.
Done all I can to make love true,
Guess all the rest is up to you.
When all I wanted was to hold your hand.

Be a good part of the human race.
But then I take a hard look at me,
See that I can't be what you need me to be,

About this poem:
Un-requited love.... gotta love the shear gut wrenching pain of it all... :)
love or hate
is it time to love
or is it time to hate
where is the love gone
has it gone dead
has it vanished in a instint
or has it just gone into hideing
only god knows how it all started
seems hate is easier than love
isnt it all time to unite
rather than fight or
is it just the time to fight
love has gone rare hate has grown
only time will tell were its going
or is it time to hate
where is the love gone
has it gone dead
has it vanished in a instint
or has it just gone into hideing
only god knows how it all started
seems hate is easier than love
isnt it all time to unite
rather than fight or
is it just the time to fight
love has gone rare hate has grown
only time will tell were its going

Post CommentDivided
Hole in my heart
Divided
Two worlds apart
You use to know me
I use to know you
Less than six months
Our world together is threw
Seperate worlds, Miles apart
You, I will always hold in my heart
I think of you everyday
To the lord I would often pray
That we are together again
Another time
Another day
Divided
Two worlds apart
You use to know me
I use to know you
Less than six months
Our world together is threw
Seperate worlds, Miles apart
You, I will always hold in my heart
I think of you everyday
To the lord I would often pray
That we are together again
Another time
Another day

About this poem:
A poem to gravity after my first six months at warWhining and Dieing}:psycho treatment
somethings in my head and its causing a fright
just cant clear my brain tonight
something i'm missing that wont translate
nothing is wrong its all been great
i downed my friendly ferment quick
but nope that surely wasn't it
and chiefed my tribal tool of peace
only to result in a high release
but still no sign of why i whine
need more help with this problem of mine

but nope that surely wasn't it
and chiefed my tribal tool of peace

About this poem:
just a dream could never be realMy Lament
It's a wonder the good
Bear to live in this world
Where man's sins and ignorance
Are fully unfurled
They seem to see nothing
Beyond all their desires
Instead of striving for truth
They pander to liars
They also seem not to pay heed
When true words are spoken clear
Instead of hearing with their hearts
They turn in ignorant fear
How have we gotten into this mess
Where goodness and kindness are rare
And the majority of the human race
Is living in despair
I'll tell you why we're in this mess
That continues with us still
Because all those souls with big black holes
Can't seem to get their fill
Bear to live in this world
Where man's sins and ignorance
Are fully unfurled
They seem to see nothing
Beyond all their desires
Instead of striving for truth
They pander to liars
They also seem not to pay heed
When true words are spoken clear
Instead of hearing with their hearts
They turn in ignorant fear
How have we gotten into this mess
Where goodness and kindness are rare
And the majority of the human race
Is living in despair
I'll tell you why we're in this mess
That continues with us still
Because all those souls with big black holes
Can't seem to get their fill

About this poem:
I was feeling down this day.Contemptible Love
A love that is unworthy of trust
seeks out the innocent as it’s prey,
attacking the heart in its helpless state
until it’s weakened and then leaves it lay.
It’s plan is to degrade what ought to be cherished
it has no honor in it’s merciless game,
for every heart it captures in it’s cruel pursuit
is one more trophy on the hunter's shelf of shame.
Over the years it sneaks and slithers through life
using something that was once treasured by many,
stalking it’s victim until the time is just right
through the falsity of love, it’s power is mighty.
The pretender is amused by the lives it devastates
leaving behind shattered promises and dreams,
every heart it has purposely destroyed has crumbled
it takes pride in claiming the victory of it’s demean.
Watch out for the deceiver, it’s always searching
and guard your heart it’s the target of selection,
if not prepared it can snare you in an instant
your heart’s agony is it’s greatest satisfaction.

About this poem:
This is about a Love given falsely for personal gain. Never giving a thought to the heart it is crushing in the process.God Have Mercy
People today,
Are hard to understand,
You can't even tell,
Whose a woman or a man.
The women you see,
Standing on the street,
Will do anything for a pill,
They're like dogs, toss them a treat.
They scrap and they hustle,
Fo that one pill,
They get so bad,
They're starting to steal.
Some have children,
That's left all alone,
Wanting their parents,
To just come home.
It really bothers me,
And makes me so sick,
At this lifestyle,
These people pick.
I will try and be good to them,
Do what I can,
To be there when I'm needed,
To lend a helping hand.
So until they get ready,
To take another road,
All I can say is,
God have mercy on their soul.

About this poem:
Seen alot that went on where I lived that day all this stuff is everywhere and thought about their children.....God Help them all.....I MISS YOU!
Written for my dad,who just passed away from cancer-january 7th 2010,we will all miss you,but you will never be forgotten.
The whistling wind blows through my hair
I'm always thinking of you,but your nowhere near
I can hear your voice on the whispering breeze
It soothes my mind,and puts it to ease
I think of you often,to show you how much I care
The hurt can be overwhelming,life,it's not fair
When dark clouds start to rumble,I know that it's you
I miss you so much,can you hear it in my voice
Your life got cut short,it wasn't your choice
I come hear so often,to this quiet little place
To hear your voice calling,to remember your face
I will never forget all the times we spent together
How life can change quickly,it's just like the weather
I have nothing to give,but the earth,sky,and sea
Please accept these mournful words,now my soul is set free
I'm not sure I want to continue,there's no reason why
This emptiness devours me,nothing to do,but cry
I miss you so much,there's so many things we can do
I want to catch a ride on your wings,drift into the blue
I feel at ease,knowing I'm here by your side
Did our dream come true,did our hearts collide
I must come back down now,to face my empty life
This pain here without you,stabs me like a sharp knife
I miss you so much,I want to give up the fight
You tell me life's a struggle,now do whats right
Remember me always,just look up to the skies
You're here in my heart,I'll never forget your eyes
The whistling wind blows through my hair
I'm always thinking of you,but your nowhere near
I can hear your voice on the whispering breeze
It soothes my mind,and puts it to ease
I think of you often,to show you how much I care
The hurt can be overwhelming,life,it's not fair
When dark clouds start to rumble,I know that it's you
I miss you so much,can you hear it in my voice
Your life got cut short,it wasn't your choice
I come hear so often,to this quiet little place
To hear your voice calling,to remember your face
I will never forget all the times we spent together
How life can change quickly,it's just like the weather
I have nothing to give,but the earth,sky,and sea
Please accept these mournful words,now my soul is set free
I'm not sure I want to continue,there's no reason why
This emptiness devours me,nothing to do,but cry
I miss you so much,there's so many things we can do
I want to catch a ride on your wings,drift into the blue
I feel at ease,knowing I'm here by your side
Did our dream come true,did our hearts collide
I must come back down now,to face my empty life
This pain here without you,stabs me like a sharp knife
I miss you so much,I want to give up the fight
You tell me life's a struggle,now do whats right
Remember me always,just look up to the skies
You're here in my heart,I'll never forget your eyes

The Chase Is On
When I run...
I run real fast..
I never turn around ....
I Never look back...
With nothing else on my mind, the chase is on..
Time is lost...
Life is gone...
as you know, we will probably never see each other again .
Im sorry my daughter, this is how it ends...
please forgive me,and the life I lived...
I tried I tried. ..
....I truly did
I run real fast..
I never turn around ....
I Never look back...
With nothing else on my mind, the chase is on..
Time is lost...
Life is gone...
as you know, we will probably never see each other again .
Im sorry my daughter, this is how it ends...
please forgive me,and the life I lived...
I tried I tried. ..
....I truly did
