Vampire

Embedded image from another site


To cause someone such a pain was not enough
Than to choke the void with shame would conquer love
To give someone this emptiness as a gift
You would fill the box with lies and wrap it up with promises

So reach inside I just dont care
You wont find anything in there
Just a broken heart made of clay
And arteries filled with a bitter taste
I just thought I could be your friend
But your fangs were sharp in the end
What I see in your eyes is a liar
The beautiful death of my vampire

Turn on the TV to turn the silence down
Because the voices from inside they echo loud
Feeling dragged until the finger nails are all torn out
As the taste of my dying pleasure drips from your mouth

So rip my heart out through my spine
I'm sure it won't hurt as bad this time
You see Im not made from paper mache
I will not easily tear and just blow away
So you won't crumble me up again
And throw me away with the wind
My bitterness has cut a frown into your smile
The beautiful death of my vampire

About this poem:
Somewhat a big fan of the horror flicks, especially the old black and whites to the late 60's and 70's. There is certain element of creepy in a classic films that most of the new ones today lack and fail to capture---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----

I'm So Tired

I'm so tired,
And here's the reason why.
We hiked and played all day,
Up and down, and all around,
And that's why I'm tired today!

About this poem:
This is a song to the tune of I'm So Happy, a Gospel song. I wrote it after a long hike with some members of my walking group, in which we went up and down some steep hills. I was worn out afterward, and this song perfectly illustrates how I felt after the hike.

Pink Rose

Just as I looked my Stuff I found Pink Rose..

And for once, I told myself..whoever can give me even just a single piece, probably, He's the one. . . (twas a sign that I've been asking for..A pink Rose)

Then he came. ..
Things went smooth...
A happy moments with him. . .
Then one day, He left. ..
I was about to tell him everything. . .
How he means to me. . .
But it was too late..
Something happen...
An accident.. .
I was really hurt when I heard the news..
He will not come back anymore. . .
That's the only words in my head. . .
I blamed my self. . .
I did even asked God for a Bargain. . .
And that, if the only thing that could bring you back...
Is to stay away from you, I would rather do. . .
Thing's not that easy. . .
I know, whatever I do, It'll not bring the old You. . .
I cried too much. ..
Til I run out of tears. . .
Days by. . .
Months runs. . .
Years passed. . .

Still, longing for his care. . .
For his LOVE. ..

Reflection

I look at my reflection, who is that staring back at me,
That’s not the man I know, the man I'm suppose to be,
Lost is the light that shone from deep within my eyes,
My soul still wanders as it searches across the open skies,

I’m fighting so hard just to keep alive,
Using all my strength just to survive,
My heart is empty deep inside of me
I’m an empty shell of who I use to be,

Even if I try to understand the reasons why,
Even though, Even though
Even if I try to understand the reasons why,
Even though Even though,
There’s a stranger looking back at me.

Look in the mirror and tell me what you see,
That’s not the man I am or who I want to be,
Look in the mirror, there’s no one I can blame,
I’m the only one that can bear all the shame

Screaming in the darkness, screaming at the night,
Where are the answers, of a life that’s lost its light,
Trying to find a direction, try to find a place to start,
Just looking for some feelings to fill this empty heart,

Even if I try to understand the reasons why,
Even though, Even though,
Even if I try to understand the reasons why,
Even though, Even though,
There’s a stranger looking back at me.


Look at the mirror, that’s not the man I’m supposed to be,
There’s always a stranger, always staring back at me.

Alone

Lucy stumbles back into, that little room
Tired worn and weary, all energy consumed
The horrors of the day are etched upon her face
As she slumps down at the table,her mind in a daze

Everything is as it was, nothings out of place
She feels his presence in every corner,in every space
The morning coffee cups still standing,in the gloom
The knives ,the forks,the plates,his silver sugar spoon
Shining,shining through that gloom.

Lucy tries to piece together ,their last conversation
Was it really about the weather? was there no indication
She picks up his old cashmere sweater and holds it tight
But then,the scent of his cologne,like dynamite
ignites the tears that flow
And she lets go
All the pain and misery it flows
Shes rocking,...rocking to and fro.

Oh how she wishes she had gone with him this morning
Oh how she wishes she could be with him now
But instead she finds herself deep in mourning
As she leaves this house of stone...alone

Lucy picks a bunch of wild forget-me-knots
And throws them towards the shore
But they don't go very far
And she thinks she hears an old familiar voice
Call her name,above the noise
Of the crashing surf
Then she dries another tear
And heads down towards the pier
To get the boat back to the mainland..

From somewhere a corncrake sings his evening song
Hes happy, now the storm is gone
But for Lucy it goes on and on and on...

Oh how she wishes she had gone with him this morning
Oh how she wishes she could be with him now
But instead she finds herself,deep in mourning
Now shes going home alone
Now shes going home alone..

To know

Over there there runs a little boy
He sings his song of joy
He sings his song so loud and clear
For the others
He knows they hear.

Isn't it so grand
Isn't it so grand
To know

The river that runs by
So swift and fast
You know the baited hook won't last.

Isn't it so grand
Isn't it so grand
To Know.

The Lord he planted seeds in the ground
Some went here
Some went there
As the world went around.
Some grew strong
Some grew weak
Others you know
They are still asleep.

Isn't it so grand
Isn't it so grand
To know.

Happy!

I've been searching for you

While you're searching for me

Taken my time

Taken it all so easy

Hoping you don't pass by

I've been lookin in the mirror

To see what I could see

The truth staring back at me

There will be no more lies

For I am set free

It is one step backwards

Two steps forward

I am on board

Life is for the living

And that's where I will be

There will be times of happiness

And times of tears

Life don't change

Because you walk without fear

It's not in what you say

But what you do

Please don't pass me by

I am searching for you

I had to do some rearranging

A bit of a thing called changing

I'm in no hurry

Just taking my time

Might not look like I'm seeking

But I will be hoping to find

Life is for the living

I will be living mine

Rudolph the Regular-nosed Reindeer

You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
Another reindeer
Rudolph the reindeer!
Had a nose!
And if you ever saw it
You would say nothing!
All of the other reindeer
Used to accept Rudolph completely!
They never let Rudolph
Lift anything on his own!
Then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph you can't help!
Christmas is ruined!
Then how the other reindeer
Had unfair unexplained expectations of Rudolph!
And they cried!
Rudolph the reindeer!
You're the same as any other reindeer!
(Rudolph) I don't know why, but I'm sorry!

About this poem:
This is a parody of Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer by Elephant Larry. This is my favorite new Christmas parody song. It is from a show I used to listen to back in the 80's, the Dr. Demento Show.

As Constant as The Sun

Some people come into our lives
their soul effect is that they help us to realize
how transient so many things can be.
But, Darlin' that's not true of you and me.

Sometimes I look into your eyes
and marvel at the crossroads in our lives.
What makes a fool upon up their eyes to see
what matters most is love and the will to be?

For people come and they will go~
Like shooting stars and you'll never know
why they're leavin' or
what made them come.
But you touch my soul
as constant as the sun.

Master Time can make or break so many things
and the shifting sands of fate might take you away from me.
But as the dove has one true love until she dies,
I'll always love you, Honey,
no matter where you fly.

Oh pain has been no stranger to you to me,
and if change and pain mean growth then let them be.
So let us fight and strain while we share what life may bring~
As long as you love me, Honey, it can't bother me.

For times will come and they will go
like shooting stars~leavin' only after glow.
But from the very beginning I've known you were The One.
Oh you touch my soul
as constant as the sun.

Callaghan Grant 1984

Secrets I Knew

Fast to fly, flock of birds
Beating chrome wings, casting shadows
Over golden meadows
I stand still, gazing skyward
Wondering why, to realize
What will hypnotize

First to fall, frozen white stars
Descending downward, touching ground
Without any sound
I feel hushed, numbing cold
Shivering calm, to discover
My soul will hover

Nothing at all, answers me at last
Walking homeward, dying daylight
My lonesome plight
I fall silent, darkness pervades
Replacing life, will ever imbue
The secrets I knew
