Looking up to a starlit sky,
feeling the cool breeze across my face.
The grass beneath us,
feels as if we are lying on a cloud.
Silently sleeping,
a draft overcomes me.
Pulling the blankets tighter,
reaching out for you.
I feel your face,
so soft and warm.
As I open my eyes,
tears start to flow.
Rising I call your name,
knowing that you will not answer back.
Over vast waters,
My love lay there sleeping.
Destined to share the same fate,
Until I see your face again.
Looking up to a starlit sky,
feeling the cool breeze across my face.
The grass beneath us,

It's dangerous,
this pen in my hand.
It tells the world,
what I can't understand.
It tells my feelings,
shares my thoughts.
It tells all,
the things I forgot.
It makes me uneasy,
for you to know me.
To know how I feel,
when I don't know your real.
This pen in my hand,
eases my pain.
It causes me worry.
It makes me sane.

There is one good thing about leaving,
even though there is a lot of grieving.
You get to look back on times past,
watching memories made to last.
I will miss you more than words can say,
I will think of you each and every day.
I'll hear your laughter; see your smile,
these tings I'll hold onto while...
I'm missing you.
All the fun times we've had,
all the times we were happy or sad.
I'll treasure them all to remember you,
but how could I forget my lil' "moo?"
And when the rain falls down,
as it plays its song on the ground.
I will see you dancing,
as i remember your prancing...
I'm missing you.

Life for what you see,
not for what you can't.
Love for who you are,
not for who you want to be.
Dont change for them,

Take your reflection,
make it yours.
Nobody can change it,
nor bring it down.
Mold it; shape it,

Don't let it go,
don't mistreat it.
Take this time you have,
live as though it was your last.
Hold onto it,
it goes by so fast.
We miss the time we had,
but can't live in it.
We must move on,
learn to live again.
So take your life,
learn once more.
To love, to sing,
to dance, to live.
You'll get there.
You'll make it.

A Poem For No OneCan't sleep, can't thinkA Poem For No One7 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Always fidgeting, can't stay still
Ringing in my ears won't stop
Love is such a peculiar thing
Always changing, ever growning
Belongs to me, belongs to you
Omniscient for a time
You're the one for me
Down to my last breath, I'll always love you.

I dreamt of you,
Like you were a shooting star.
I longed for you,
Wondering still, were you are.
I wished.
I hoped.
I prayed.
And there you were,
You walked on by me.
Saw right through me,
Never once longed for me.
I wanted.
I needed.
I craved.
I needed you to pick me up,
To show me the way.
I needed you to guide me,
To light my shadowed Hell.
I hoped.
I pleaded.
I desired.
The blood from my broken heart,
Swelled around my body.
"Help me," I cried.
Though you never came.
I bled.
I screamed.
I begged.
The fire soon came,
Swallowed me whole.
My body desinigrating,
My dreams fading.
I cired.
I died.
I lost.

Everyday realitly hits me,
like an icy wind.
Realization of my destiny,
forever to be alone.
To wander in darkness,
shadows ahead.
No one to grab my hand,
pull me from the cliff.
Falling down, spiraling down,
no one to save me.
The ground grows nearer,
life becomes clearer.
I've lived life in a shell, blaming others,
for the hell I've created.
Looking back now I see,
all I wanted was to be...

Stop and take a moment.
Rethink about what you're doing
Your mouth is moving
But who do you think you're fooling?
If it's a love, unlike all
The times before than surely, lass
This will be the one love test
That will be easy to pass.
You say you're in love
And maybe it's true
Just listen to me,
I'm not trying to be cruel.
Love is what you feel when
You can't feel anything at all
And sometimes you have to be
The first one to fall.
Love is what it is like
To put your heart on the line
To risk it all and trust
That everything will end up fine.
Love is how your heart races
But stands still at the same time.

As You Look in the MirrorAs you look in the mirror,As You Look in the Mirror7 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
You see nothing.
Rather than looking into eyes,
You see only abyss,
And from each abyss
Flows a salty river
Of warm, fresh sorrow.
But remember, dear one,
This mirror is your own,
And when it comes
To taking care of our own mirrors,
Many of us--
For one reason or another--
Let them gather dust and dirt,
Or get fogged up,
Or even crack and break.
As a result,
When we self-reflect,
We see nothing,
Nothing worth reflecting upon.
We are often busy
Cleaning up the mirrors of others
So they can always see
The wonders we see in them.
All they have to do
Is look into those mirrors,
And then they kn
This Thing Called LifeThis Thing Called Life7 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Walking around in this thing they call life;
Watching dreams get shattered, hearts get broken.
Living in constant states of chaos;
Never releasing its strangling grip on hope.
The light gets lost in the darkness;
Lives burn out like candles in the wind.
Relationships dangle by thin threads;
Over gushing pools of rippling blood.
Hatred blossoms over night;
War wounds appear in the captives eyes.
The truth is only spoken in silence;
The silence is death; when all is revealed.
No secrets exist beyond the grave;
All is known when the dead rest uneasy.
Regrets that hang above their head fall;
Only to expose liars, cheaters, an

with a simple "Hello"
and end abruptly
with a sad "Goodbye"
Memories are worth treasuring
weather they bring a smile
or weather they bring tears
the are a gift to keep forever
even if they are something as simple
like a game of "Mad Libs" at a friends
or even something life-changing
like true love's first kiss
passing notes, holding hands, watching sunsets
memories that I treasure
memories WE share
and i hope you keep forever
people grow up, people grow apart
it's bound to happen
weather you want it or not
but i hope you will always treasure
the memories we share.

The knight in shining armor,
Galloping along
On a fine white horse,
Head held high,
Handsome and proud,
Sword at the ready....
I would walk right by him.
Let him be another girl's hero;
He is not mine.
Give me the man
Who will walk on his own two feet
Just because he can
And because he knows
You can't always have a horse.
Give me the man
Who will look me squarely in the eye
And not down on me
From what he believes
To be a high place.
Give me the man
Who will not hide behind plates of armor
But is open and honest,
With nothing to hide,
Being himself and only himself.
