09The Light
Finally broke my writers block and wrote this poem. It needs a little work, but this is what I have so far… Enjoy
I need to turn out the light
to end this haunting here tonight
it use to be different you + Me
nothing true in reality
then those doubts
started hanging out
the distance crept in and I closed my mouth
it’s fading don’t pout
stop pretending everything’s okay
don’t blame the world for getting in the way
I tried to make Myself believe
the world was wrong
and I was just sleeping in My dreams
I tried to make myself believe
but reality was just too slow for Me
I need to be free
free from this light
that’s haunting Me tonight
I tire from trying to turn it out finally here I am shouting out
turning out the light
that was haunting Me
tonight
This is for You, Nolan Johnson
Forever In My Heart
Although I’m not their mother
I care for them each day,
I cuddle, sing and read to them
And watch them as they play.
I see each new accomplishment,
I help them grow and learn.
I understand their language,
I listen with concern.
They come to me for comfort,
And I kiss away their tears.
They proudly show their work to me,
I give the loudest cheers!
No, I ‘m not their mother,
But my role is just as strong.
I nurture them and keep them safe,
Though maybe not for long.
I know someday the time will come,
When we will have to part.
But I know each child I cared for,
Is forever in my heart!
Relationships
You may not be her first, her last, or her only.
She loved before she may love again.
But if she loves you now, what else matters?
She’s not perfect, you aren’t either,
and the two of you may never be perfect together
but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice,
and admit to being human and making mistakes,
hold onto her and give her the most you can.
She may not be thinking about you
every second of the day, but she will give you a part of
her that she knows you can break her heart.
So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze
and don’t expect more than she can give.
Smile when she maked you happy,
let her know when she makes you mad,
and miss her when she’s not there.
-Bob Marley.
To Love or Not to Love
Wrote this for an assignment in Humanities, it is a parody of Hamlet’s To Be or Not to Be Speech. Enjoy <3
56 To love or not to love that is the question
Whether it is nobler to open your heart
The risk of broken pieces scattered all over
Or to never love at all
60 By avoiding it. Ending pain to mend the wound
No more. Shield your heart to end the ache
The heartache comes with a thousand pieces to mend
It is our minds that must stay stronger than our heart
Eager for the throbbing to part
65 To dream for something more,
Over come this obstacle we bore
When the haze clears away
Take a moment to stray
The mind to other arrays
70 For who would want to bear the soreness and grief of heartache?
No treatment, but time
Pangs of old love stabbing the open wound
Insolence people bring upon you
That patient merit of the unworthy takes
75 When the way to fix the pain is right in front of you
The simple wall can hide the hurt
The wrench and cringe of the weary heart
But that the dread of it never falling down
Undiscovered emotions little play with
80 For risk of loosing it all
And make us rather bear those little aches we have
Than fly into an island of unknown
My angel making me coward of a wall
Washing away the clouds in my eyes
85 Just a speckle of dust clouding my mind
And greater plans to be held any moment in time
My eyes were blind to the reality of mankind
My angel rips off my wall, one swift motion so fine
To move on from the obstacle…
90 Pray you be mine
Dreams
I wrote this because I want my dream to become reality.
This is me pursuing it <3
Dreams come with action
Writing is my passion
All I can say is
Seek…
Push…
Strive…
and Imagine,
Your dream
Only you can get there
“Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast”
Everything Right
I just wrote this poem today, and I am pretty pleased with it. Hope it is as good as I think it is! Enjoy :)
My life is complete in the midst of your arms
Setting the stage beneath the stars
My fingers laced with yours, just right
The glow of the moon shining down, so bright
Trembling at the touch of your lips, daintily light
Here we are on this perfect night
Melt away my worried thoughts with your healing words
Wash away my tears, and let them be unheard
So we can focus on the beautiful reality of our world
Nothing can change this moment
Nothing can make it more perfect tonight
My hero, my muse
You are everything right
