Just because (macduff's challenge)

Just because i have gained weight
does not mean i have no self esteem.
Just because i am heavier does
not mean i eat a lot of food
or that i do not work out.
Just because I do not work as a
CNA does not mean i don't want to.
Just because i work at at a
furniture consignment shop now
does not mean i do not want
to work in my CNA field.
Just because my knee does not
work all the time does not
mean that i am lazy.
Just because i can not get my
leg to work some days does not
mean i want to be on disability.
Just because i applied for
medicaid does not mean i am
white trash and a slacker.
Just because i go to the Welfare
office does not mean you can
belittle me and make me feel
like white trash.
Just because you look at the
cover you don't know what is
on the inside of anyone.

Just Because(Macduff's Challenge)

Just because i like to
write poetry and carry
a notebook all the time,
Does not mean that i am
weird and not date able.
Just because of this
does not mean i want to
be alone all the time.
Just because you do not
do this does not mean
it is wrong.
Just because i am different
does not mean i can not
be accepted by people.
Just because is not an
excuse for me it is an
encouragement for me to
do better the next time.

About this poem:
People are always staring at me when i write in my poetry book and talk about me behind my back. They think i am either slow or a nerd. Even my friend likes my poetry but gives me the evil eye when i bring out my book around her.

Ek Dard

Haar Jaam Tera Chehraa Mujhe Dikhaata Gaya
Main Peeta Raha,Tera Ghum Mujhe Pilata Gaya...

Chale The Lekar Iraada-e-Mohabbat Ghar Se Lekin,
Phir Fareb-e-Tabassum Hamare Dil Pe Chata Gaya

Paane Chale Aaraam Thoda Hum Maikhane Magar,
Haar Ghut Dil Ke Sholon Ko Aur Sulghaataa Gaya

Uthaayi Thi Botel Tujhko Bhulaane Ke Liye Magar,
Jo Jaam Pyar Se Bana,Woh Teri Yaad Dilata Gaya

Ajaab Sama Guzraa,Madhoshi Ki Halat Main "Saaqi"
Jo Bhi Husn-e-Chehra Dikha,Hamain Rulaata Gaya

Ghaazab Adaakaari Dikhaayi Tune Bhi Aye "Shahry"
Wah! Wah! Sunta Raha,Aur Apne Ghum Sunata Gaya

Teri Yaad Aaati Rahi,Aur Main Sharaab Peeta Gaya,
Bus Yunh-ii-Tera "Shahry" Zindagi Guzaarta Gaaya......

Longing

Demons in the closet are there to stay
Can’t ignore them or wish them away
Locked deep inside I’d like to escape
But nowhere to go as boundaries they break
Subconscious allows the memories back in
Nightmares return and fear will begin
The smell and the pain makes my skin start to crawl
Images fresh, I remember it all
Flashes like photos fill up my brain
My muscles constrict to hold out the pain
I wake with a scream in cold sweat each night
Limbs aching from each internal fight
Years of repression and therapists too
Can’t take away these images of you
Engrained in my mind and there to stay
Your twisted perversion of pleasure and play
The days are mine and are precious to me
I long for the night when the demons set free

TIME

The years have gone so quickly...So quick its hard to comprahend....That many lifes are coming to an end...So fingers crossed i keep sane and dont go round the bend...But if madness should descend upon me...And you dont find me at my best...I apologise beforhand for my awfull mess...And pray that death will take me in sleep as i rest.....jw

Wrong Life

When we were young we were so sure.......We would grow up and be rich not poor...So where did we go wrong in lifes scheme.....Our being rich is still just a dream......Now i am a poor old weary on my own...In a house thats not a home....No wife no childrens laughter...No living happily ever after....With a heart thats stuggling to cope...Keeping alive this old dope... In a body full of pain...To old to proud to complain....I say complain but to whom....There is only me and the tv in the room....So i talk to the walls at least they listen to my woe...And each day poorer and older i grow.........jw

train wreck (for micheal)

I'm a train wreck, all aboard.
I'm a never was, nevermore.
I'm a dark cloud pourin rain
an effort made in vain
to keep warm

I should've been the one
to pass away from this place
I'd have given anything to see his face
why'd it have to be
him instead of me?

well, this isn't what I expected
and life shouldn't
be this way
from the outside lookin in
it looks like i could win
but I'm rejected

am I so easy to walk away from
no-one stays I'm
feelin like a big mistake
now it's gettin hard to see
the point of me

Among the Solemn

In the dark,
she cries his name.
When they're apart,
it's not the same.
She is lonely.
She is sad.
Among unholy,
she's getting mad.
Being alone,
is half the problem.
Where's the sword?
Among the solemn.
Now she cries,
as he dies.

hurt

You hurt me with ignorance
and I can't promise that I won't hurt myself

I'm sick and tired
I thought that we are family

You should realise that I'm extraordinary
I have my own world in myslef

You want me let I allow this world take away me?
I will loose You then and wil loose myself.

It is like silent screams that fills my body
I scream at forest and pillow

Does God can help me?
Does He?

Won't You realise?
I hope it won't be too late

Lover Bleed

we ran so fast -ya know we couldn't slow down
we flew so high - we couldn't see the ground
we fell so hard and it isn't right
we're far apart, I think I might

have been dreaming. was I just dreamin?
on sunday...sunday morning

I wrote a note, ya know I tried to say
I love you so I gotta get away
I'll find you when you find yourself
and this is real, I think, or else...

I was dreaming...just dreamin...
on sunday...sunday morning

out on a limb, cut away the excess
he's a knight, she's a train-wreck - a big mess
lost sight of what you really need
so take a bite, and watch your lover bleed

so line them up, and knock them down
light it up, let's leave the ground
we're out of luck, you know we're out of time
so shut your mouth and just be mine

we're dreamin, just dreaming
on sunday, sunday morning

out of the gate, but still in deep shit
up late - tryin to keep this
love alive what we really need
take a bite, watch your lover bleed

About this poem:
I knew someone last year. If things would have different, we may have been more than friends, as it was I became part of her support system as she tried to kick alchoholism. she was in a re-hab facility for 6 months. she did not.... that is to say..... I've heard rumors. one can try, but must walk away sometimes. some people you cannot help. she inspired a few songs. it's really sad, and tragic. I'd never dealt with that evil of an addiction. not like that. a learning experience, to be sure. some people are only in your life for a moment. like a shooting star, if you will. flash! zip! gone.
