Best Out Loud Poems

~writer's notes~

i think out loud
from my fingers to a keyboard 
so forgive me if my speak
is somewhat long winded
if it has swirls and curls
this is me
hopefully you want to hear
my voice in its totality

~the prologue~

just a child
he clenches his teeth
grinding 
creating a screeching sound
much like...

lightning bolts
from
the 
charge of
the
light brigade
march 
through
the 
clouds
strike the 
hearts of men
who 
sing out loud
thy
kingdom come
and
thy
will be done
for
of
the
men 
who sing out loud...

Always find things to laugh about,
Laughing makes us stress free,
Nice things are not always, the first that we see,
So lots of time,we tap into great memories,
Remember when you fell from your bike or a tree,
Got bit by a bee or bullied by Tommy,
Running to the...

I am yours, flesh 
and blood

gave to you, from 
God above

Here I am, but you 
are not

don't forget, what 
you have got.



All these years, 
we've been apart

I hurt you, cause 
you broke my heart

a little girl, I'm not 
anymore

years have passed, 
just like...

A CENOTAPH WOULD SPEAK OUT LOUD

There is, in my still heart, room for you,
Despite the unmannerly way you have behaved
I have managed to conserve a bloom or two.

You smiled, and said love was for the few,
The deed is done, your garden, it is paved,
In my...

I look in the mirror and what do I see
Cellulite and stretch marks
Body perfect, that is me

I turn to the left and then to the right
My butt is way too big
But my tummy gave me a fright

I laughed out loud and nearly choked
I looked like...

My presence is invincible
I am dominant and powerful
Overcoming life’s tragedies is emotional
Vanity is self love; you can say I’m boastful
It’s the beautification to my struggles
Self-worth is my devotional

I swagger
I sway and I strut
I go out into the world
And I kick butt

I grasp reality
Reach out toward...

I cry for their pain
They cry alone
hide their tears

They stepped up
did their duty
fought for freedom
took the hit

Cry with them
cry out loud
they need your tears
cry out loud....

A good portion of the nation is living out loud

involuntarily, because of invasion of privacy,

Inquisitions prompted by religious affliliations

and racial discriminations,

Private living has become obsolete,

obliterated by accusations, and curiosities,

The American Dream no longer holds the 

same meaning for everyone,

Foreigners' lives are plastered on every news...

When your back it has an itch
   and it's oh just out of reach.
And you sprain a muscle reaching.
Laugh out loud.

When you're dressing to the nines,
   and your shirt's pressed just so fine.
Then discover buttons missing.
Laugh out loud.

Find the toilet in...

Listening to the sound of your voice 

An angel is singing and I rejoice

The sound is amazing and I admire

Your tone lifts above the choir

We are silent and hearts are the only thing played

We are mesmerized by your beautiful serenade

The resonance brings a tear to...

Don't go giving up now on the Closin' of a door 
Does the Cause that you been Fightin' for not matter anymore
Should you Hide beneath the Sands or Fade away into the Clouds 
Or are you Brave enough to be the one .....to Dream out...

One year on
will I be gone
For no one really knows
when those final doors will close

Before goodbyes, adios, au revoirs
I yearn to go out with a bang
if I can
to swim with dolphins
to sing and to dance
to play in an orchestra
a piano perchance

For the last few years
I’ve...
