Best Angstlost Poems
I can't believe they got you
They've got you
Falling
On your knees
They tied your hands and took
Your hat
When they stole you from
Our hollow and
Put our flags at half-mast
But these flags still billow in the wind
Because I know you're down,
Not dead
And I'll be damned if I know anyone
Who could stop our
Peter Pan
They're just a bunch of pirates,
Savage bullies out at sea
You're just a
Fishie out of water who
Dared to try and take the lead
They made you out
To be their
Tyrant
And you'd much rather play their game
Than die out of defiance
When
They could make you walk the plank
I saw the sadness in your eyes
As they taped over
Your mouth
I saw the way they beat you, just
Because you were around
And then
They blamed you without
Trial
And they threw away the key. They
Warped you to fit their politics
And you became their
Enemy
I am the Lost Boy that you brought along
To better represent our hollow
But soon
I was recruited as another puppet
Come to play
They played us well, and thought I wish I could
I can't just walk away
From
The pirates that belittled you. I have
No choice but to stay
In their waters, you're a loner, but
Their ship is not your
Home
We are held down by
These shackles, but this is not where
We belong
You're a king among the Lost Boys
So don't go drowning
In their seas
They're just a bunch of pirates, but
You're still Peter Pan
To me
If there's one thing in the world that I truly do hate,
it's the fact that I must slip into the north of my mouth a denture plate.
"You'll adjust," I was told, "Soon it will feel a part of you."
They were wrong however. It's simply not true.
I lost the bulk of my teeth at an ERA protest ralley
when an individual who didin't believe as I did kicked the crap out of me,
and now I pay the price so ironically,
cause no women want to sleep with a guy whose lost the bulk of his teeth.
Nothing ever stays the same
But still I search for someone to blame
I've lost a few loves, lost some close friends
Gained a few pounds and sharpened my ends
We thought we could spend forever this young
Bobby says chances of that are a million to one
There wont be any time to lose the first
Can't say any longer that being sixteen's the worst
I've learned through these short twenty years
The camoflauge in the size of our fears
There's still so much for me to learn
So why do I live in the past and burn?
This continuing cycle has shattered me into pieces
I just wish I was confident as she is
Instead of regretting all the time I had wasted
I may as well soak into it, indulge it, and taste it
No longer should I keep leaning back into what was
But it's so hard to control myself because
Of all the many promises I've kept for a handful of lives
And such little loyalty that has been practiced before my eyes
What is the point when there is no seriousness
No humor either, just business
"Whence come I and whither go I?"
Return my favor today for tomorrow we may die
A decadent moment is all it takes
A blissful encounter it so makes
Undue fragments of lost memories shred
Perchance the decency has lost its thread
Yet duly capable is she of undue frets
But alas her honour is her stake the wretch
I numbly persist in my ode to her behest
Sure am I to whom she was pressed
Her untimely chastity unveiled at best
She scratched and screamed but none the less
Humour me I says to her sort after it all
Silent tears beneath her eyelids do fall
Be gone young lass I shout and wave
To some abysmal place, there yonder cave
A hearty laugh shared the lads and me gal
Chastity indeed! Served the fair damsel well!
I dreamt of you last night
Echoes in an empty corridor
Foot prints leading to a door to outside
White oblique, nothingness, cold, empty
colorless snow storm lost and all alone…..
Blinding white; you could not find your way
Frozen in time and space time erased
Not able to discern which way was up or down
Blinded by White
East west north south.
Desperately seeking ,.seeking
Seeking, not finding
Frozen tears
Iscicles forming
And all the while I was inviting you to come into my warmth
And come in out of the cold
Come here and let me back into your heart again.
And you answered;
I’m not lost I am just dreaming
