Do you remember?

Do you remember the time we met? You were wearin' glasses then.
Now you have contacts, and I'm glad we're still friends,
Do you remember the time that we spent? We would make each other laugh in class.
Silly jokes, and funny faces, that time flew by too fast.
And do you remember, all those things that we said,
All that time I wondered, what was going on inside your head,
I used to poke fun at all the teachers, and make you feel at ease,
I was happy when I was with you and you were always smiling.
I wonder if you remember that day, when I took a chance, and you turned me away,
You didn't have much to say, but I was used to being turned down anyway.
Well I miss you, just a little bit today, but what I really miss the most,
Was how we felt back in those days, not caring, just laughing, feeling close,
I swear I saw it coming, when you sat next to me that day, with that look in your eyes.
And maybe somewhere in the future, I'll find that happiness one more time.

A Winter's Love.

I feel the winter wind flowing fast, nipping at my skin brushing past,
The snow falling all around, collecting on the trees, on the ground.
Icicles hang from rooftops twinkling, I stare at them thinking,
How beautiful winter is at night, when the stars are out shining bright.
The color of fresh snow is pure, unblemished, absolute, I'm sure.
But none of it compares to your rosy red cheeks, or your shivering smile,
And I know we have been out for what seems like a while.
I laugh a little bit at your willingness to freeze, and stay by my side.
So let's go and enjoy the winter from inside.
And enjoy you my bold desire and your beautiful body by the fire.

Love Is Easy

Love is easy, Life is what gets in the way,
Time and Money, Time is money, Time is frayed.
We look into eachother's eyes, seeing what can't be said,
The feelings we have that we for so long kept in our head.
We kept it all locked away, because life told us a lie,
Now after so long, truth comes in the blink of an eye.
True love needs no stepping stone, only a level playing field,
And I would level this entire world, if only for life to yield.
Yield us the life we've been wanting for so long,
Together forever dancing our dance, singing our songs.
Because for us love is easy, life is what gets in the way,
However it is time we make it a brand new day.

The Dark Savior

I can save you, I will save you, I will save you all.
I can make them pay, they will pay, they will all pay.
Why do I fight the life that is here right before my eyes.
Flying solo, disconnect, away from you away from the rest.
Alone and miserable, with the weight of the world on my shoulders.
A statue of strength and courage to sum, fear and hatred to others, difference done.
Duality unrelenting, dividing the two. I am the destroyer of worlds, your devil, your AntiChrist, and Baal. Multiplying your fears, but in the end I will save you all, in the end they will pay, I will make them all. As it is said by the prophets I do see, and I do intend to set you free. Hold your heads high for soon he comes to take you away, away from the world and those that are left to be, will be mine for inflicting misery. I said I would save you, and make them pay, I meant it all, I do what I say. For I am the Devil, your AntiChrist, and Baal, the one who makes the earth tremble, the Dark Savior who would see your whole world fall.

Those days.

If in fact we ever meet again old friend we shall sit by the campfire, and talk of the times that once were and will will never be again. Listening to music play and watching the sun fade. Still talking about those days. Life didn't make sense then, and it doesn't now, not knowing where we were going or where were headed now. It just made sense to sit down, and talk about, those days when we'd wander about through the trees, through the leaves, exploring the world and making our own way. Back when life was a simple thing, we didn't understand a thing, ignorance was bliss back when we were kids.

Destiny

The cruel beauty of Destiny,
Never knowing if your in control,
As she sweeps you off your feet,
And dances with your soul.

hummed love song.

(mmmmm = humming)
mmmmm, mhm mhm mmmmm
Let's ride our bikes down the road,
walk through the fields and the meadows,
mmmmm, mhm mhm mmmmm
Singing along to this song mmmmm
Sing along with me, mmmmm, I'll sing along with you, mmmmm
And I will whisper, mmmmm, sweet words of truth, mmmmm
Like you are so pretty, you are so beautiful,
mmmmm, mhm mhm mmmmm

We lay in the grass, we smile at one another,
I kiss you softly, we kiss eachother,
mmmmm, mhm mhm mmmmm

unknowns

Sometimes life comes fast, other times it comes slow,
Like waves of the sea, ever changing, never the same.
Sometimes it amazes us, scares us, or makes us laugh you never know,
Like the magnificent winter frost on a window pane.

50's Frame of mind.

I see these old pictures of people,
Ancient polaroids and kodaks,
I see it and I think of a time,
A time in which I've never existed,
Funny how familiar it is though,
To smell something new and unknown,
And be dizzied by a wave of nostalgia,
I see these old videos and I'm reminded,
Reminded of times when I was a child and yet,
Reminded of other times I've never seen,
Maybe I'm an old man inside,
Maybe I'll be a child when I'm old about to die,
Is it my past life, who knows what time,
But I'll enjoy it as long as I see the grass grow.
With a Cherry Coke, and a Marlboro,
I'll live in a 50's frame of mind.

Loves Symphony

She visited me again last night,
Oh what a great surprise,
We cuddled holding eachother tight,
And I looked into her eyes,
Blue worlds staring back at me,
She is so beautiful,
She kisses electricity,
The feeling unbelievable,
Like lightning through my veins,
And thunder in my heart,
A storming passionate rain,
Of loves symphonies impart.

Walter the duck

Walter the duck was swimming.
He was swimming in the pond.
He swam in the pond with Wendy the duck.
Walter liked Wendy and Wendy liked walter.
Because they were ducks.
So they did what loving ducks do.
And they f... found themselves a pastor duck.
Who married them and they went home.
And had little Walter and Wendy ducks.
Which they named Winnie, Willy, Wilfred, Wanita and Wdonna Duck.
But all was not well in Duckville,
Ray Gibson heard about ducks a lot,
And he got tired of hearing about ducks,
Duck this, duck that, write a song about ducks, frisbee DUCK!!!
Ray was so annoyed by the ducks that he was filled with murderous intent,
and went and stabbed Vanessa in the face.
RIP Vanessa, because ducks named Walter make Ray Gibson Homicidal.

Where did you go?

Let me find a new place to go,
instead of down by the road,
sadness and misery falling like rain,
All I see is people in pain,
Moonlight shining through the trees,
Illuminating the dark mystery,
Of who you've become

Why did you have to leave,
why did you go away from me,
Everybody is wondering,
Where did you go---,
where---- did you go...

Why'd you walk away,
Why'd you walk away,

Where---- DID YOU GO-------

Why didn't you face your fears,
I am here----
But now you've gone dead and cold,
You've killed them all,
And sold yourself away---
Away------

Friday 9 October 2009

Live Today.

When it's time for you to fall away,
And darkness befalls you,
Just rest dear friend don't you worry about a thing,
Soon you will be awakening,
In a new world, In a new place, where everyone soon will follow,
Because you never know what's around the way,
Live your life today.
There is no guarantee for tomorrow.

The Spirit

When I was younger I looked at the stars, I looked at the moon,
I dreamed of flying, of changing the world, hoping it would be soon,
There were times when I would go off alone, to my humble solitude,
As a kid I would think about life, and inventing things too.
I was a curious kid, always snooping, watching, tinkering,
And I've had my fair share of dangers, like death was lingering.
Through light sockets, outlets, gasoline, firecrackers and climbing trees,
Many many accidents befell me, but through it all my spirit kept me free.

Dream of Me

I climb the mountains high, I climb to the sky,
I look for you, nowhere to be seen.
I don't know who you are, or even why,
I look for someone who I don't see.
I see you in my dreams for sure,
I can't remember your face though once I awaken,
I do hope you show me your face and cure,
I, of this sadness by which my happiness was taken.

One Trick Cat

Expressing the emotion of the world,
In words is an art and a skill,
Many have the ability, but not the talent,
I have the talent, but I am a one trick cat.

Contrast

Fire burning, essence of loving, find me tonight,
Show me tomorrow, in the day, the moon shines,
Find me now, here I sit, sad and gloating,
Of past conquests, prideful and mourning,
I am he who wishes to be, more than he,
The hero arises, short in courage, big in heart,
Plunging deep darkness, afraid, flying high,
I can take you away, from the melancholy,
But only if you carry me, and show me the way.

Changes...

It is cool outside, the windows open smells of fall wafting in,
Changes coming as they do every year, changes without and within.
I feel different, I see differently, about the world and life and such.
With the seasons and the weather, who I am changes just as much.

When the world falls...

When the world falls, I will find you,
I will be there right beside you.
When chaos ensues and you become afraid,
I will protect you and keep you safe.

When your hungry I will feed you,
When your tired I will hold you,
If you cry I will comfort you,
If it's cold I will keep you warm too.

When the world goes dark, and you lose your way,
I will carry you through the darkness until day.
I will be with with you until it ends, if it ends,
And I will be there with you when the day begins.
There by your side through it all,
The day the world falls.

No Title

There was a time when I was wondering about the future, wondering who I would be,
I would sit in my room, listening to music, watching the sun set through the trees.
I would escape the world and I would imagine one greater, one where I was king,
Knowing all, seeing everyone, in control of everything,
But I grew to resent that fantasy, it was to predictable, no mystery.
I still wonder about the future today, looking to space and thinking of God,
Not your God, my God, I'm possessive, free of religion and hypocritical dogs.
I'm stuck in Limbo all the time, between the state of limbo and the state of me,
Constantly thinking and pondering life, knowing theres more to be seen.
Really there is but haven't yet opened our eyes, I await the day I've opened mine.

Saturday 26 September 2009

Would I

There was a time that I used to look at, the sky, I watched all those pretty stars, just, floating by, I wondered what was out there was there a god up above, watching me down here, sitting on the porch looking up, Was I meant to do something special, meant to be something more, Would I save someones life, would I change the world, would be like the heroes that came before, would I. WOULD I. What I am I meant to do here, who am I supposed to be, is there a god up there looking down on me, Will I always stay here, or will I save the world, Could you please just help me out here, give me a hint or three, I know I ask alot, I know it's part of the mystery. So I will keep living my life, being the person I want to be, I will try to help the helpless, give what I don't need, use smiles to kill the sadness, and be there when you need me, and BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED ME.

WOULD I, would I, WOULD IIIII. Will I always be ordinary, will I always be me, or will I save a life, will I change the world, will I be like the heroes that came before me.

You are my life.

And sometimes when were singing, We dance around, dancing around, were feeling happy and your so beautiful, I wish I could stop, this moment, this moment in time, and watch you go round and round, Smiling, all the time, you smile at me, we are free, butterflies and bees, birds in the trees, and you are with me. I don't need, anything, but you, but you are everything to me, we fly in our dreams, we play like kids, and in the noon time, we curl up together, and we watch, we watch the sunsets, and the stars rise, because you are everything, you are my life.

The temporary...

I am about to go to sleep, about to dream another dream,
As the echos of the days past in my ear are ringing,
I try and find the beautiful face in my thoughts of the dream I dreamed the night before, The solemn warm tranquility, I barely remember but still wanting more.
I remember the feelings most, and the kindness that she showed, Aphrodite in disguise granting me my night of love, but will I ever know.
I understand its what my mind makes up for me, but try sleeping in my shoes for one night, you'll be craving the fantasy. I do not long for sleep, as a narcotic addict does for drugs, I enjoy the days and nights equally and the gifts from above.
Relax now fall away for it is the time to do that, escape this weird reality though soon you will be back. And when you return from slumber enjoy the day for day, as you will soon realise the memory of it's beauty too does also fade away.

Until another day...

Slowly the ropes that tied us together burn apart and disappear, What once was is no longer clear. Silly moons and pretty stars bright, Once upon a time we sat under them at night. Talking about the future ever turning, while the fire we sat around was stirring. As time went on the fire grew hotter and the roads began to fork right and left, We both had our opinions and weren't sure which way was best. We did however seperate and enter our own solemn way, Until We meet again old friend, until another day.

Saturday 12 September 2009

A thank you...

I remember when we we're younger I wanted to impress,
Though with you, you gave me praise none the less,
When we first met I made you nervous but you were shy,
Soon enough we were friends and I didn't have to try,
You were the one good person who liked me for me,
And when I lost a friend, you were there to set me free,
We talked a lot and were always there for eachother,
You were like a sister to me, and I felt like your brother.
I thank you for all you've done over the years no matter how small,
Really I appreciate it, since others would have done nothing at all,
I wish you for you happiness in every single way,
Because you have brought me joy every single day,
Your a true special girl, an Angel in disguise
Like the sun in the sky, your hope burning bright,

Jupiter in a night sky...

Tonight I saw once again Jupiter with my naked eye,
It was up there and looked like star very bright,
So I pulled out a telescope and focused it into view,
With a 10mm lense I saw it clear and it's four moons,
I was really excited and amazed at what I saw,
I looked at it for almost 2 hours completely in awe,
And I think I experienced what Galileo had too,
When he looked into space and saw Jupiter true.
Remarkable; Amazing! And Alas I must go to sleep,
Maybe tomorrow night Jupiter again will my eyes see.

I dream of you

So when I wake up, I feel I've fallen asleep again,
Because it's like I am, Seeing you in my dreams again,
You look so amazing, you look so beautiful,
Smiling all the time, your eyes are looking back at mine,
I say a little joke, you laugh a little bit,
I see your smile, the more you laugh the bigger it gets.
You put my hand on your chest, and I feel your heart beat best,
It gives me goosebumps everytime, to feel your heart beating with mine,
dum bada dum, dumba da dum bada da dum, dum bada dum da da dum da da badum
Our heart beats slowly, together were growing slowly,
Feeling like two is done, slowly were becoming one.
I am the happiest I've ever been, I hope you are too,
Because when I go to bed at night, I dream of you.

pieces of the puzzle.

So all the pieces of the puzzle make me fall fast and befuzzled
as I work out the turns and slides in my mind,
Me and you fit together like this, we go together like that,
and I think if we put all the pieces together we'll be seeing our paths,
interwined in the middle of time between the sunset and the sun rise

Monday 7 September 2009

A great day...

hey now whatcha gonna do now, whatcha gonna do now,
your gonna go to sleep and in the morning you'll wake up,
and I'll make you breakfast to eat- drink orange juice that we like to eat-drink
Orange juice all over the floor, I spilled it, as you come you came walking through the door. Grab the towels do the dishes, sun is coming through the kitchen, windows. I drop everything right there, let it fill me up, your beautiful, and I pick you up, it's daylight, but we go to bed, soft I lay you down and kiss your head, and then your neck. You smell like summer coconuts and all pretty things, I hold you in my arms but your the one squeezing. The hair falls in your face, you blow it up back into place, phoosh, phoosh. We smile and we laugh, we smile and we laugh, you curl up a little bit. We just lay there, I don't want to go anywhere. It's time for lunch so I make us a nice grilled cheese, tomato soup and grilled cheese, let's eat-drink orange juice that we like to eat-drink orange juice that you are sipping, yummm. So hey now what we gonna do now, what we gonna do now, let's go to the beach, and swim in the sea, laid back. Were done swimming time for a little pic nic dinner, pb an j with some graham crackers and we eat-drink orange juice from our thermos, its great with what we eat-drink orange juice is a tasty sweet treat. It's time to go nowlet's go home and take shower wash off the day, a great day. The windows rolled down we drive through the countryside, the air is cool and it smells nice, fireflies, as we roll through the countryside. Soon were rolling up the driveway, and I carry you inside, asleep but smiling. And we lay down again, and I sing "hey now whatcha gonna do now, whatcha gonna do now..."

Ode to a friend...

It was my birthday, we hadn't talked in over a year.
We used to be friends back in elementary and things fell apart.
We became friends again, back in high school.
Though it was never truly the same, though that day, when I heard your name...

I don't know what happened, only what I've heard.
I'm sorry that you were taken, earlier than what was expected.
I hope that you are now in a better place than before.
I pray to god that your family makes it through...

I wish you the happiest everafter and again, I'm sorry that we couldn't have been,
better friends.

Please know I do miss you in some way, like I missed my friend Michael before.
You were a brother and a son to some, and with us we were men.
Please know that you reminded me not take love for granted.
And know you've touched peoples lives and changed our worlds, I'm sorry that you weren't able to learn this before the end.

So on Saturday Many will try to say goodbye, some will pay respects and some will only cry.
But none of us will truly forget you or where we were on that day, when you my distant friend were taken away...

Alisha (to the song Lola)

I met her in school back in fourth grade
Where you learn to read and spell little words like cola
C-o-l-a cola
She sat next to me and she passed me a glance
I asked her her name and in a low whispered voice she said Alisha
a-l-i Alisha a le-le-le lisha

Well Im not the worlds most ouspoken guy
But when she said "Let's be friends," I knew it'd be fine.
I'm friends with alisha ale-le-le-le lisha
I used to have to snip but sometimes I got a chance,
From Mr. Dawson who was a really cool cool man
And he'd call on alisha le-le-le-le lisha le-le-le-le lisha

Well we played on the play ground an then got homework sigh,
But she always seemed to get hers right
We always had fun playin on basketball teams
And we'd always have fun swingin' on the swings
Well Im not the worlds most acrobatic guy,
But when I jumped off the swing I almost knocked over Alisha
Ale-le-le-le lisha le-le-le-le lisha Alisha
Ale-le-le-le lisha ale-le-le-le lisha


She would always always be polite.
She would open the door
Pick up a pencil dropped on the floor
She was always quick to say please
It didn't matter if it was you or me

Well thats the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for Alisha
ale-le-le-le lisha
Boys will be boys and girls will be girls
But shes been the greatest girl in the world
And she is Alisha
ale-le-le-le lisha

Well I started college just a week before
And now here I sit rewriting this score
to lola, I smiled and played the song again
And thought I wonder how I'm gonna make this end

Well Im not the worlds most richest man
But I'm glad that I have her for a friend,
And my friend is Alisha
Ale-le-le-le lisha le-le-le-le lisha Alisha
Ale-le-le-le-le lisha le-le-le-le lisha

Why can't it be.

It was the week of 8/17/2009,
and we were all wanting back our good ol' times,
Back those many years when we were all kids,
Makin up games, an gettin' our kicks.
Life these days seems like livings done,
Giving up what makes us fun.
Well all the adults say it's a part of life,
But I say that's a rotten lie.

We used run around play hide and seek,
We couldn't lift a darn heavy thing,
Used to build forts and eat mac'n'cheese,
Then we'd go outside and climb the trees,
That was back in the good ol' days,
When we didn't have to worry about bills to pay.
Life was simple we had fun livin',
Each new day a surprise we were given.

Chorus
Now why--- can't it be--,
All of that time we felt free--.
Our unexperienced eyes,
were surprised at everything we saw,
We enjoyed the sunsets, and snow falling,
And there was halloween in the fall,
Now why--- can't it be--, back the way it was,
Back when we didn't know anything.

A life worth living (V2)

Show me a world that I can change,
I'll show you a reality untold.
Show me a life that I can raise,
I'll show you a story unfold.
Show me words which were softly spoken,
I'll show you piano notes singing.
Show me mechanical things broken,
I'll show you the potential of thinking.
Show me sunsets and stars bright,
I'll show you a wonderful tonight,
Show me the moons glowing light,
I'll show you dreaming eyes.
Show me a shoulder to cry on,
I'll show you raindrops sigh.
Show me a strong untamed lion,
I'll show you a majestic pride.
And If you see the worlds true joys,
I'll show you a world that's spinning.
And when comes your end of days,
I'll show you a life worth living

I punched 100 billygoats...

You we're sad one day,
So I threatened a billygoat,
You cheered up!
You were sad for a week,
So I puched a billygoat,
You cheered up!
For some damn reason you we're sad again,
So this time I punched 10 billygoats,
And you cheered up!
So tonight when I saw it was a sad day,
I decided to drive it all away, and I punched 100 billygoats!
NOW CHEER UP!
Because next time your sad,
I will punch a 1000 billygoats and they'll get mad,
And I'll get beat up by the 1111 billygoats really bad.

How to Poetry

Scrambling thoughts are good

you let them rattle as they go

then you just pull them out

as they come to you

my movie

I wish that I had some fresh bread rolls and some milk

Cedar Lake Kitchen


I had breakfast there on Sunday

Real Country Breakfast, scrambled eggs biscuits and gravy and bacon


$7.48

plus $2 tip


Kind've expensive but worth it


I miss Cedar Lake


the sunsets and the times I would get dinner at CLK Steak and fries with a pepsi sometimes with friends or with my mom

we would eat and talk about whatever we heard that day, the sky would glow orange and the clouds lit up like fire

the light blue and deep blue skies mixed together so softly the stars would come out the sunset shining of the windows from the car shop on the corner

Oldies music playing from the speakers


we would leave and get in the car and the cool air would reach us and our noses were filled with the smells of freshly cut grass from that day and exhaust

it was my movie

Show me a fire...

Show me a fire blazing in fields,
I'll show you the start of a meadow,
Give me a shirt to cover my back,
I'll thank you for the warmth,
Show me your calloused skin,
I'll be grateful for the work you did,
Take in a stranger cold,
Warm him by the fire and feed him full,
What does it matter that we do this,
Ask yourself, why does the fire burn.

Ode to Pat Jensen

To my friend who met his end,
Six string player
Played his six string well,
Listening to the notes as the fell,
If you ever think the originals were best,
Pat Jensen played his six string,
And His version sounded better than the rest.

My longing for past times...

My mind is thinking about old days,
Nostalgic moments come in waves.
Thinking of the good ol' times when I didn't care,
Because I didn't understand enough to be scared.
We would play our games and climb our trees,
Making up random rules and scraping our knees.
We played long and hard until the streets glowed,
From the street lamps and car lights as by they drove.
Our mothers would call us and we'd let out moans,
Wanting to play some more, not wanting to go home.
And as I walked back I looked at the sky on the horizon,
Silhouettes, purple skies, fiery clouds, I was in awe then.
The sunsets seemed more vibrant as a kid I remember,
The night air smelled more refreshing, in September.
And I remember one time when I climbed a tall tree,
I was up the highest ever, swaying in the wind, free.
The sun shone gold and the wind was hard,
When I was up there I felt like I was flying far,
That to me was the last real moment of my childhood,
After that I learned too much and understood.
The problem with money and how it etches our desires,
And the hatred it brings how it lights many fires,
Now I sit here writing my simple toast,
To those fun and silly times we miss the most.
Because we were kids back in those days,
And now those moments only come in waves.

Wednesday 22 July 2009

Met a new friend...

So I met a girl tonight who likes eating flaming cheetos,
I'm glad it's that and not flaming speedos.
We like TBBT and talked for while,
About life and and the emoticon smiles.
I showed her my poetry's and rhymes,
And was glad she read them and had a good time.

Tuesday 7 July 2009

My hands...

I used to look at my hands as a young kid, they always looked the same. I used them to climb trees, to play catch and to pick up rocks. They remained smooth with no wrinkles. A period of time passed that I hadn't looked at my hands, yet I continued to use them, writing, working on cars, moving rocks . When I looked at them again they were worn and wrinkled, lines everywhere, with deep grooves, telling my story.

Saturday 20 June 2009

An enemy my friend...

An enemy is now my friend.
Constantly I judged through misguided eyes.
A fool was I, though pride relinquished no admittance.
In recent I grew to understand my enemy.
Time passed, and I extended my hand in kind.
With only trivial quarrels my mind was at ease.
Curious still yet events to be unfolded.
My hand accepted, but yet do we speak...

Wednesday 3 June 2009

The light and dark.

Dark's accusation:
Who pinched the sun from the sky,
And squeezed the clouds of rain?
Who wrestled the moon from the stars,
And made the night dark and plain?
Who pulled the meteors from the night,
And stole our wishes of peace and grain?
Who saw fit to douse the cold blue fires,
That filled the night sky and lit our way?
Lest ye feel forever pain and suffering,
Of thy horrible deed, sit whimpering.

Light's recant:
The sun has not gone from the sky,
And the clouds pour their rain.
Who could wrestle the moon from stars,
You are all mad, crazy, insane!
Never shall anyone take her meteors,
Their is plenty of food and grain.
They are sleeping the cold blue fires,
And will yet come back to light your way,
I say open your eyes now and see the light,
Follow me now, out of cave, into the bright.

Dark's recant:
This is no cave good sir you lie,
You trick us to follow you in pain.
Intending to lead us away, very far.
Leaving us in darkness, for shame.
Now do right and return the stars.
And the moon to it's rightful place.
Then leave us, you ghoulish scar,
We will find our way the same.
Now do as is told and leave us be
Back to our life as it should be.

Light's plee:
Very well, oh blind brothers of tar,
Stick to the foolish darkness plain.
And when you think to call me afar,
My response will be the same.
Come and follow me into the Star,
The light of heavens here hath came.
Open weary eyes and leave the dark,
And join in the warmth of heavens flame.
Lest you should be those that stay,
Don't be, dear brothers, walk with me.

Ripped my shorts(Freeverse)

I bent over to fix some flowers and Hrrriiipp!
"What the fuck!!!"
I ripped my shorts and went to the store in them.
Big diagonal rip about 8 inches wide, gaping hole.
And then I bought new shorts.
They we're comfortable.
Sigh of relief, "Cute butt!!!"
Blushing red I say, "Eat your heart out!"
I walk away smiling get in my car and drive away.
Wow what a day.

Dead Poets Society

Our long heard cry, Carpe Diem, seize the day,
Living deep, sucking the marrow of life as we may.
Out of the sitting crowd some got up to stand,
Out of the shyest room some grew bold and raised a hand.
Against conformity, against the grain,
Desolating formality, Artists were we in plain.
"Oh, Captain, my captain!!!" We sail the turbulent wind,
You found us only boys, but made us men.
Freethinkers are we, the proud few you see,
Of one accord are we, the Dead Poets Society.

A Dark Event in the Peaceful Forest....

Silver plated guitars string the notes away, under the sun they play and play.
The night becomes them, the fires start, the trees glow with embers spark.
The wet dew resides and the forest grows silent, except the merry children all is quiet.

The moon shines through the trees, the soft silver light puts the wise at ease.
They too join the childrens' glee, light footed and ever dancing happily.
Off in the distance danger lurks, watching and waiting with an evil smurk.

The night grows colder and sleep approaches, still waiting patiently evil encroaches.
The children slip off to sleep unaware, as the wolf comes on the prowl teeth bare.
The Elders still awake converse by the fire, unaware of the evil about to transpire.

Quickly the wolf attacks fierce, blood pours from a man skin pierced.
Screams ring from man in pain, quick spear thrusting, the evil wolf is slain.
The chaos ceases, an evil chorus, a dark event in the Peaceful forest.

Purple confusion music.

This confusing music has me tripping all over myself, It's not rock or jazz or blues,
I hear purple, that deep passionate sadness, where your bleeding for clues.
You left me here too quickly,
In love and wanting, where is she,
She's gone away and left me with this confusing vinyl, belting notes of distress and tears,
The bleeding purple sadness creeping in, the blood on the ground drying, the creeping fears.

Storming flowers

Storming flowers, bring us showers, thunder lightning and rain. And on their petals water beads tears of olden' pain. Their truest nature blows through on thy atternoon winds, strippin' us our sickly souls bare of our sins. The budding flowers desolate our mindly fires, And lift the noses high. Breath deep the sweetly scent, enjoying well, soon their end is nigh. They fill the heart warmid love, for only an instant true, Their quickly fragile existence done they leave their mark on you. And as you'd may on an on through the fields to end, Ne'er will ye look upon a storming flower again.

All stressed out...

I sit around all day, nothing to do, nowhere to go,
Just like I did when there was nothing but snow.
My mind thinks thinks and thinks some more,
Oh please let me go somewhere, my ass is getting sore.
I maybe stuck inside, for now, but there is no doubt.
I'm tossing and turning jumping and yearning,
Because I'm all stressed out.

A collection of my poetry...

Broken

I feel like I can't be the same me,
The same me who I always thought I'd be,
This strong stolid boldfaced hero,
The end result is a failure a zero,
Even after the dreams I've dreamed so great,
Even after the differences in worlds I've made,
Even after all the soft words I've spoken,
Here I sit sad distraught and broken.


Vanessa's Poem

The snow falls down, I see a twinkle in your eye,
I wonder what it is, are you about to cry?
I walk closer, put my coat around your shoulders,
I see you smile, and begin to shiver as I get colder,
I'm smiling too I realise, you laugh a little bit,
And we stand there, the more you smile the warmer I get,
There was no tears, you were looking at the lights,
On that big ol' Christmas tree, what a sight.
Our cheeks are gettin' red, and I thought I'd seen it all,
You look so pretty, as the snowflakes fall.
I move a little closer, don't know what else to do,
I lock my hand with yours,I want to stay right here with you.
I hear music playin' in the background, Its David Gray,
So I pull you closer, and we dance the night away...



cheryl's poem:

And I'm just sittin here miles away.
Me and you just keep chattin' away,
Admiring the way you talk to me,
Through a little computer screen.
Talkin' about life, love, and barbecued penguins,
Random stuff that keeps us thinkin'.
Sometimes we throw up the confusion sign,
Lots of ? marks go in a line.
But we just tend to pass them by,
Because we have to talk about our snowball fights.
And then I tell you to wait,
Wait wait, just wait.
Just for a minute or two,
So I can finish writing this for you.

I wish

i wish i could take your pain away
i wish i could wipe the tears away
i wish i could make it snow everyday
just to see that smile on your face
and i dont know why i do the things i do
i guess i do them for you
to put that sparkle in your eye
i wanna see you happy all the time

Your friend

Everything is gonna be alright,
When it's dark outside,
I'll bring a light,
And when the weathers cold,
I will hold you tight,
And I'll keep you warm,
All---- night,
And I'll keep you cool,
When the sun beats down,
I'll be your shade,
If that's what it takes,
To put a smile on your face.
Because baby, I'm in love with you,
I'm in love with you

Stay By Me

Don't leave to soon,
Or I'll miss you,
We could sit by the beach all day,
Just lay back and enjoy the waves.
We will fall asleep,
We will dream a dream.
And then wake up under the moonlight,
Dance to a lullaby,
Sky is blue, the moon is white,
And im just glad that I'm by your side...


Beautiful Girl

You look so beautiful when your standing there,
You look so sweet when you give me that stare,
Your body moves and I move with you,
Your body moves so, so smooth too,
When I hold you I feel you give way,
When I hold you it's the right way,
Lets dance baby make it all come together,
Lets dance and make it all feel better.


The Universe and You

The sun and the moon and the stars,
When we look out into space they seem far,
But when I look into your soft blue eyes,
I need not any longer look to the skies,
For the fire of the hottest stars burn in them,
And the beauty of the night is looking right back at me



Old poems

(untitled)
I used to look at pictures of you, the ones that made you look ugly,
I did it because I knew I couldn’t have you and you would never be with me,
But everytime I saw your face I cried inside, and smiled.
Breaking a little more everyday, as I waited all the while.
So I wish that I could just get away from everybody,
and I wish that I coud just stay away,
Seeing everyone, you all remind me of just how alone I can be,
So I am leaving you all today.


one i wrote a long time ago:
It was time to go, but you never told me, you just looked at me and smiled,
So I never left we just stayed there awhile.
We layed next to eachother you were wrapped in my arms, we just layed there looking at the fields and the farms.
You didn’t move one bit, you just relished the moment.
Your parents came home and we said goodbye, Your face was clear but inside I felt you cry.
Just outside the door I missed you, and I knew you missed me too.
{I just wanted to let you know, that I love you so.}
I’ll see you again tomorrow I know this for sure,
Until then everything that isn’t you is just a blur.

Unfinished song:
good night go to sleep listen to the feet patter as they go along, soon you will be asleep at the end of this song.
good night good sleep listen to the feet patter as they go along, soon you will see me in the morning sun.

nat’s poem:
I wondered why I couldn’t find the words or the time, to send you and Im. And now I realise that you were the one running away luckily tonight you decided to stay. But then once again you rushed away from me my friend. I stood here amazed at the fact that I wait for you sexy. But really im here standing behind the plexy. I’m locked out only able to make out the words from behind the window at one point the door will open I hope. So I can walk in and here your words, so that I can also be the one whos heard. Little hints and insinuations, leave me at what seems attenuation. simple times and simple rhymes. My hearts on my sleeve and unfortunately its my time to leave. I leave with the words I’ve spoken, to see if you’ll leave me lying here broken.

Sometimes we think we know what were doin',
But we can't even see the road in front of us,
Sometimes we mess up what we thought was right,
But it's okay, we all do it, the best thing to do is let go,
And say okay, hey what're you doin', let's hang out and forget everything,
And say It's all gonna be alright, you and me and me and you, tonight.
I don't know why but everyone seems to agree on one thing,
Life is pretty much boring without mistakes, it makes us feel human,
Though there is one good thing, a mistake I'm not making,
Me and you will be alright, lets hang out, forget everything,
Me and you will be alright, me and you, you and me, tonight.



Sunny days and long walks on the beach,
With soft breezes and cool drinks.
The water is warm and the waves smooth,
With skies that are so beautifully blue.
There are plenty of shady palm trees,
Under which you can fall asleep.
And, even here, when it rains,
It takes away all the pain.
Laying back on wooden beach chairs,
As the wind blows around your hair.
It's just such an amazing world,
But your even more an amazing girl.

Life here sucks, living up to people's expectations,
They don't care about us, were a number in a nation,
The hustle, the bustle, the cars, trains, and planes,
This big giant migration of people, constant, all the same,
Never changing, never differentiating, so loud and annoying,
This buzz and hum of "life," with status, how is it enjoying,
I need to get away, my life's about to crack, I'm breaking,
I see what you see now, people wanting, never giving, just taking,
I want to go out to nature, and see all its beauty and grace,
I've never been able to, always stuck here in this place,
I really want to go out there, and get away, start new,
So when you leave, please babe, take me with you...


You just sit there half of the time, wondering why your here,
You ask me what its all about, why the road of life isn't clear,
Do I take a left, do I take a right, Do I? Do I?
Well all can say is just take some time away,
From this world, go to your special place, get away,
But you can't right now, so I would say,
Sit back and enjoy your french tea,
Get warm under you covers, watch a little of classic TV,
Maybe though you'll just fall asleep and dream,
Dream about, somewhere with beautiful falls and streams,
Fish swimming, mountain sides, trees, and the blue skies,
Noone else there, unless you want them, watching the sun set and the sunrise.


Remember when you walked with me,
And we held hands all the while,
That day you made me happy,
That day I made you smile,
The sun sparkled through the leaves,
The blue sky, my heart was racing,
The breeze giving life to the trees,
The sight of your beauty I was facing,
You noticed me staring and your eyes got bright,
You smiled at me, I smiled too,
The moment felt right,
So I pulled your arms around me and kissed you,
I felt the warmth of your breath as our lips pressed together,
You tasted so good, so sweet, let me remember this forever...


I'm just sitting here, talking to you, wondering what it is that your thinking,
As I look out the window, the sunsets and the snow starts sprinkling,
This room is so cold on these wintery nights, no warmth in here, for me,
So I think of the fireplace, and I think of your pretty face, I'm warmer already,
I wish you were here, and I wish you weren't gone, I'm all alone right now,
I wish you were here, and I wish you weren't long, coming home somehow,
I miss you so much that I scream out your name to the world, I love you,
I miss you so much that I scream out my pain to the world, it's true,
Outside the wind howls, but I pay it no mind I'm thinking of those moments in time,
Those moments in time, when we would cuddle in bed, and all I could do was smile because you were mine...

The In My Head Song
So I'm just sittin' here singin' along,
to a song I made up in my head,
And I make up the lyrics, as I go along,
To this song I made up in my head,
I don't know where it came from,
It just popped on in,
I don't know where it came from,
But its really fun to be singin',
And when I'm singin it,
I can't complain,
Because it lifts me up,
Just like a big ol' plane,
And I soar, over the cloads, I soar,
Away from the fast pace society, more and more,
And when I land, On my two feet, I'm on a beach,
With the warmest sun, and the whitest sand,
And I have nowhere to be, no time to go back,
So I think I'll just sit here... and relax....
