Premium Member Don't Try To Love Me
Don’t try to love me…
Please...walk away
Love someone else
Just….hear what I say…..

My love is sunshine
My love is rain
My love brings pleasure
My love gives pain

My love is darkness
My love is light
My love is weakness
My love is might

My love knows anger
My love knows  peace
My love brings madness

A Quivering Heart
A quivering heart beats deep in my chest
I have a soul that will not rest
Until I save my damsel distressed
From the life that holds her repressed

Her love is shadowed with sorrow and pain
Her flower of life is feeling so drained
Her petals are dripping like tears...

Premium Member Entwined
I can't promise to understand
the ways of the mind
and the ways we're entwined
with the people we love
There's a vine, so divine 
It is there, if we want it~
It extends far beyond what we've known 

There are people who claim
they can talk to the dead
Who have...

Premium Member Behind Sight
Am I who I am
or all the people I was
Do you discard me now
just  simply because
I’m not pretty no more
handsome or spry
I don’t wear fancy clothes 
a suit and a tie

Now that I’m older
You don’t hear what I say
So I will just listen
as I...

The Moment I Woke
I Lay in bed 
   coffee
      smoke
My dreams didn’t start
till the moment I woke
 
I’ve been awake
  wash
      eat
I dressed for work 
but just couldn’t leave
  
you brush a hand across...

Silent Screams
To stop and ask just who I am
Is very hard indeed
For everyone I've ever been
Is locked inside of me
Too much for self to understand
The silent screams I hear
Oh help me please, won't someone help
Are pleas for just my ears
Which one of me is slipping past
My...

Premium Member Fasting
We have a new diet created each day
With many saying you need to hear what I say
If we could cut out these foods 
It might put all in better moods
A diet to conform to your body type
Why not jump on this train of hype
Are we...

Premium Member Frog poem
Good morning says the frog
Sitting on the log
Talking to my dog
How was you day
What do you have to say
It was ruff
Oh that is tough
Says the frog 
Sitting on the log
Next to the ledge
By the waters edge
Your nose is cold
You must feel bold 
Sticking your nose...

Premium Member Don'T Be Afraid- Response To First Poem
I’m afraid of dying young
Of leaving things yet undone
I’m afraid I’ll leave this place
Yet not leave a single trace
I’m afraid I haven’t said
All that lives inside my head
I’m afraid I’ll disappear
And no one will hold me dear.
I’m afraid I’ve yet to touch
The hearts of those...

Have I Told You Yet
Have I told you yet that I love you today
Love how you laugh in your own silly way
I go through lifes motions only to find
That for all this time you've been on my mind
I am the clouds, you're the sun breaking through
For no one shines...

World of Decay
Down on my knees praying to you
My heart now broken, the world is askew

I am sad and confused and tears fill my eyes
As I watch the news I’m beginning to despise

I hear nothing of good only of evil
I fear our world is in major upheaval

When...

FACING TOMORROW TODAY

It’s a long way from the cotton field to the White House---
like journeying to the moon and safely making it back.
So they made fun of us as if we were Mickey Mouse---
Huge white eyes, tap dancing shoes and ears big and black 

Political...

Premium Member Hello
Hello
Do you hear me ?
Do you hear what I say ?
Do you understand my logic ?
Of how games people play
Do you ever wonder
Why people live and die ?
Have you ever helped the homeless ?
Or seen a child cry ?
Ever looked into sorrow
And seen emptiness
Have you...

As Long As Forever Lasts
If you listen to my heart
you might feel what I feel
if you hear what I say
you would never walk away
do you hear when I tell you
to please be my friend forever
Even though we might be far apart
could you still be there
when I need someone the...
