Mother LoveMy Mother made my cardiMother Love4 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
And its very nice I think,
It's in my favourite colour and
My favourite colours pink.
Mummy said "Don't play near brambles
In the garden over there,
Cos they might catch on your cardi
And it might just get a tear.
But I went and played near brambles,
I went much too close to brambles,
I brushed up against the brambles and...
My cardi got a tear.
Mother made my tartan dress
With its colours green and red,
She said "Off you go and play now
But rememeber what I said.
Please don't touch the brambles
Cos you know they make a mess
And we don't want any holes
In your lovely tartan dress.
But I went up to t
Fade awayi scream but can't make a sound,Fade away4 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
i dream but can't stand my ground,
i cry but my tears are cold,
i bleed but still my sorrow is untold.
from deep inside i know
my inner pain is meant to grow.
whenever i feel warmth
it's only here to go.
my heart remains broken;
truth's words unspoken.
my mind stays sad,
my soul's long dead.
and even though i pray -
my life will fade away.

I think I’m broken
I’ve lost something I can’t replace
Everywhere I go, I look for your face
Will you try to find me?
Without you I’m lost
Life’s moving on at the speed of light
And you’re left behind in my hasty flight
Will you try to fix me?
I think I’m broken
Shadows of my love still remain
I need to move on and forget the pain
Will you try to remember me?
Or am I already a shadow of the past?
You’ve finally stopped entering my dreams
But the loss isn’t what it seems
Will you try to fix me?
I think I’m broken
The light of your presence has flicke

With the man with the black hearted stare.
It’s too late for tearing, it’s too soon for smiling,
It’s time for the final White Night.

maybe there's a plan
maybe it's all written down
and is actually easy to understand
maybe each choice is not a choice
maybe it's someone else's words
maybe everything has a reason
even if it hurts
maybe life has a theme song
I wonder what mine would be
maybe there's a happy ending after all
it's just the wait that's killing me
Her Best FriendHer best friend is not blondeHer Best Friend5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Doesn’t have blue eyes or brown
There is no certain height
No certain weight
But they have known each other for years
Her best friend knows her deepest secrets
The fears that make her most afraid
She can say anything
Without fear of persecution or ridicule
Always there when needed
Never questioning the reasons why
She forgets all her insecurities
While they’re together, she is beautiful
They wake up together
And go to bed together
She is locked in a comfort zone
As long as her best friend is there
She has a painful secret
No one even knows
Her best friend is not human

My HeroYou may never read his name in the paperMy Hero5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Or hear the news speak about anything he has done
He is a silent hero. One that doesn’t expect recognition
He stands up for what he believes in, fights for what is right and
Always loves his family unconditionally.
He will never expect anything to be handed to him
And will always work for everything he gets.
He lives for his family; his wife, kids, and grandkids
They are his world and they thank God everyday for him
Never will he pretend to be something he is not
When you see him, what you see is what you get
He can be hard yet gentle, stern yet kind
There is no one else like him

Where We Are NowHe said hello..That’s all it tookWhere We Are Now5 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
My heart melted, and my knees went weak
He captured my mind, body and soul
Every word he spoke, I took as truth
He said “I love you,” but it wasn’t pure
The words “I miss you” came more often
Yet he was only hiding the real him
I began to wonder…
How does someone say I love you, but have no love for themselves?
Playing games with emotions should be a crime
Games with the heart, a felony..
He always said “trust me,” and I foolishly did
The whole time my heart and mind working in synch for a change
Telling me something was not right

Letting GoLetting Go5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
She watched him as he slept
The rise and fall of his chest
The intermittent movement of his eyes
A slight smile crossing his face
As he dreamt of some place and time
She memorized every part of him
This chance may be her last
Watching him for hours
She felt love she had not known
Lying down next to him
Feeling the heat of his body on hers
She did not want the night to end
Letting go would be to painful
As morning came
She could not look him in the eyes
Not wanting to see what his blue eyes held
In a heart wrenching mode, she moved about
Taking care of task needing to be done
She knew the time had come, yet she was not ready

He came to me
The way I had only dreamt of
Taking me in his arms
Placing a kiss upon my awaiting lips
Desire so strong, love so pure
My body becoming weak
He was mine for this moment in time
Lying next to me, he reached for me
Placing his arms so lovingly around me
This is the heaven I have spoken of
He softly touches my face
Runs his fingers through my hair
I look into his blue eyes
And read an unspoken message
I need him, as he needs me
Tears in my eyes
Aching in my heart
For I know I may never have this moment again
I close my eyes, savoring every moment in his arms
Every touch from his hands
Not wanting to move

take me with you
in blue fields and naked trees
Drown yourself, i'll take the blame
still alone
waiting for the shadows in vastness
don't let them use you
as tearless you are
remain motionless
to the end
Demission on decay
hoping for nothing, for nothing more
Drink poison to forget
not afraid anymore
no regrets now, no feelings
and now live with cold darkness
no harm, you're blind
i'll set you free as you are dying
i can't stand the absence
on your own for the last time
this is the lonely end_
Distance............Distance.Distance............5 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
Don't want to think about the words,
That meant you never knew my feelings,
The distance between the reasons,
For being apart,
My eyes believe you were unfeeling,
But my heart didn't want to believe you just left what we had,
I feel you hated me somehow,
And barely knew what to say when we saw,
Each other,
Every word was a lie,
But a truth in someway.
Did i deserve to be treated this way?
Being alone yet seeing you everyday,
Without you i feel bare,
But you can't see because you are too far away,
Going around never looking at me unless you had too,
Making me almost cry,
At the fact you almost never knew me,

She clings on to hope for a better day
Aside he sees her return deep within
And wonders, determined, where to begin

Gazing entranced at the bubbling sea foam
For here and now, I am here, yet not
Knowing in you I will not be forgot

What mistakes have I made?
Can it stop?
Moving through the hall. Welcome to my hell.
I talk to much.
Too many facts.
Spots of blood everywhere.
Is it over? Did I pass?
Dark figures stop my cries.
Tears running down my cheek.
Why did I speak up?
Can it stop?
I'm so stupid!
What is love? Why am I so....hurt?
Whats wrong with his picture?
Spots of blood everywhere.
I laugh too much.
I disappear.
What next?
Nothings on.
So annoying.
Why do i hate her? I've never meet her!
I'm a shell.
I'm different.
I try to be happy.
Why can't i be anything normal?
I made a mistake.

When You're Mine Come to me, I want to hold you.. Feel your body next to mine.. I need the warmth of your skin against my skin. The rise and fall of your chest under my head, as you breathe deeply. The feel of your fingers as they run through my hair, your touch so gentle. The touch of your hand as you lift my head, so my eyes meet yours. In your gaze, there is a silent message. One that doesn’t need to be complicated with words. As I lie next to you, looking in your eyes, I have never loved another like I love you. My heart beats for you. My soul yearns for the day you’re mine. In our few moments together, when our hearts beat as one, I becoWhen You're Mine5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
I Miss UsDo you remember when we first met?I Miss Us5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
We could talk for hours about nothing at all.
Or just look into each others eyes without need for words.
Sit together, holding each other in the darkness.
Walk along the beach, hand in hand .
Go for a drive in the country, just to be together.
I’d slide over in the seat, and put my head on your shoulder.
We would drive out to the very spot of our first kiss.
Look at each other and smile, knowing this is where “we” started.
What has happened to us? Where did “we” go?
We no longer talk for hours, but sit in uncomfortable silence.
No longer do we hold each other in the dark.

The time is coming for you to go home
I am not sure what I am going to do without you
You have always been my rock
My turn to person in times of hurt and despair
You have given me strength to keep going in life
Watching you for years, I learned to never take it for granted
You have been my best friend, the one I could confide in
I always enjoyed listening to you
So wise, with so many life experiences
I have watched you go from someone so strong
Never needing anyone’s help for anything
To being so frail and helpless

They rest upon a thorny throne
Blossoming full and red
They are outnumbered
Born to bear the tragedies of the world
They wait, frozen
Waiting to spread their petals wide
And embrace life
Their proposal to the world
Meant to comfort and provide
For held within every soul
Is a rose
Pure and true.
