Poem's Title:Mother Dear
Poem:
Mother dear,
Now listen here
For you are not to blame
That my spirit, my soul, my flame
Is dead

I’ve been walking upright
While my heart squeezed tight
And burnt inside of me
And blew away, you see,
I’ve been walking dead

It would have happened eventually
Sooner rather than later you see
For it was bound to come
The death shall now benumb
What’s left of me

This is my goodbye
My life went awry
I’m sorry for the pain
And the fresh bloodstain
That I’ve caused on your heart

Poem's Title: Disarm me
Poem:
What is the matter with me?
You’re supposed to be my enemy
Where did that change?
It’s all so very strange
I sat and watched you tremble
I watched as you did dissemble
You wept in fear I couldn’t understand
Somehow through it I held your hand
Gathered you in my arms
Muttered all my little charms
Soothed you with my song
To help you come along
And then you left without a glance
I watched your back in a trance
You left ungrateful, unaware
It just isn’t fair
How could you turn on me now
And how could I allow
Your presence to harm me
Your fear to disarm me?

Poem's Title:Repression
Poem:
I should be dead,
Nailed down,
Resting my head
'Cause I can't hear a sound,
Spinning me round,
Crying out,
Filled with doubt,
I should be repressed
I’m in distress,
Pleading for life,
Waiting for death

No one can hear me,
Week and dreary,
What’s the use?
For there is only,
Pain and abuse
What can only be
A memory
That would be me
Our bodies are only doors
To our broken souls

All of the misfortunes and doubt
What's it all about?
Suicide and died
Kill
It’s now a thrill
Abuse
Has a use
Society has changed
Soon we’ll all be the same

Love and hate
Life and death
When one begins
The other will end
Fate brings us here
To live in fear
Luck won’t save you now
Worlds crumble
Just like sand
Hearts are broken
When placed in my hand
My mind races
As they pass me by
I keep my cool
Cause they are not better then I
They cannot steal my sanity
At least for this moment

When death is all you feel
What’s your reason to stay alive?
Trapped in a prison
Of thoughts that where broken
And dreams that have died
I want to forget
Forget all the screams
And the lies
Create the pain
Kill me in vain
Let the blood pour down
Suffocate and drown
In the sea of the dead
I’m losing my head

Poem's Title: random snippets
Poem:
Bryon how easily amused,
we and walk and he steps on wee white berries
just to hear them POP
we throw tree seeds into the air
watching them spiral right down from the sky
like tiny green helicopters
Rob being tossed over his wheel barrow down a bank
a bear at his wind screen
Did you know moose will charge cars?
and once i saw one, nearly ran away
only to find it was just a prop for bows and arrows!
I argue with hannah over the silliest things
Alexander the great was a half God she says
thats myth darling a myth
all the books say so,
well i say no
Isn't your car a bit broken?
No charges because your cop didn't show up
My cat is sitting in a mesh garbage can
my cousin can't enunciate, she calls it arse cream
Korean platers are made of paper, no tea and crumpets on those
what a terrible poem, no rythem no flow
i can write just in the morning when my mind is slow
When sophie is playing, she takes the giant helium balloon and jumps onto the floor
where she procedes to run under the couch and wonder
why won't it come with me?
its much too big and shes much too small
My school is full of knitters! Knit one and all!
mum dad, that motel looks gross, i hope there aren't any cockroaches in there
Kelsey repeats: Yes, i hope there aren't any croch croakers in there!
I shall comence to finish
merci and au revoir!

Poem Category:Love
Poem's Title: To love you from a distance
Poem:

To love you from a distance
Is a feeling I hope you feel
To not be able to touch you, kiss you, see you
Oh, these feelings are so real

In my mind every day I think
I hate that we are so far away
But then I realize the first time we touch
You will want to stay

You have power over me
That I can't begin to explain
Is it love, or is it something else?
Because in my head all I see is rain

In the rain are two people
looking but not able to touch
Staring at each other
Neither are thinking of anything
Except for the love they have for the other

Nothing on their minds
Except the love they share
They know it's so true
Because these feelings are so rare

They have never felt feelings like this
The woman afraid to be hurt
A little thought in her mind
Knowing it just might not work

The man loves to love
Says he will never do such a thing
He loves her so much
One day he hopes to give her a ring

These two people, as you already know
Are you and me
You are the man, and I the woman
I love you very much, as you can see

I know you'll never hurt me
It's just very hard for me
To trust a person
When my heart is so delicate, you see

I have some skeletons in my closet
I'm not sure I want you to know
It's unfair not to tell you
But my fear is that you will go

I know you love me
I see it every day
When I close my eyes at night
For this is why I pray

I believe that you love me
And I love you
So when you are ready
I will be, too

Anything and everything
It's all for you
I just want to make you happy
That's what I'll live to do

So whatever it is
My mind, body, and soul
Ask and you shall receive
I love you more than you'll ever know
