Purple Easter bunny, with your jazzy ways
Rainbow hair, and eggs painted in reds and grays
Pastel colors are not your thing, I guess
I hate to say this, but your hair is a mess
Constantly trying the best you can
to be the rock and stand without one.
You know they need you but left sad,
who’s there if you are the one hurting?
It makes you want to cry and yell back,
but you recognize they can’t control it.
It’s harder than it seems, you think:
‘Maybe I’m the one who needs therapy.’
Viciously taking out their lows on you,
because you’re the one within reach.
Taking cheap shots you’re their target
even if you care about them the most.
With each mood swing they lash out
only to apologize for it five minutes later.
Emotional whiplash leaves a mark
you start to second guess your sanity.
It’s harder than it seems, you think:
‘Maybe I’m the one who needs therapy.’
I hate to say this but it’s the truth,
you can’t be of service and risk yourself.
Crying and feeling anxious aren’t normal,
an empty cup will become a domino.
What made you a pillar will start to fall,
the strong can be victims in this crisis too.
It’s harder than it steems, you think:
‘Maybe I’m the one who needs therapy.’
Roses are red, violets are vile
Lilies are ugly, daisies make me smile
Allergies are making me sneeze off my head
I hate to say this, but I want all flowers dead
I cannot bury them in my yard for they make me sick
If you send me a bouquet, I will be saying “ick!”
Flowers are pretty, if they do not make you sneeze
But my inhaler is not near, and they make me wheeze
I am trying my best to not throw this delivery guy out
But he just brought pollen in, and I really want to shout
Roses may be red, but I want them dead
Now my blasted spring allergies have clogged up my head
There no use in trying to mend these broken and shattered pieces.
Its done for. Your saying that I'm great, that I'm strong. That I'll find someone else.
It's cut a deep void in my life. And left me completely sleepless.
Only vulgarity comes to mind, I dug deep who knew that so easily, your feelings would melt.
It disappeared overnight. Oh! The unfairness I'm faced with.
Maybe I deserve the pain. From all angles it sprouts.
I'm filled with hate. Length and width.
I tried! I tried! Did you expect me to shout?!
How I miss waking up in love! All smiles, no regrets at all.
It's become a feeling I definitely don't want again, never ever again.
Its a lesson learned, behind happiness, despair crawls!
Don't fall too hard, once you fall, it happens over and over, it never ends.
I hate to say this again, but what's done is done.
There no turning back once the damage is done.
A Rare Rhinoceros
Nothing seems so rare as a robust rhinoceros
Trying to point long nose into business like us
And incredible case in point never could prove
Because with big mouth he wanted to behoove.
He was rhinoceros always being the rowdiest
With his nose's point many things had missed
Then ended up raising a really big fuss
From scratching poor skin all full of psoriasis.
They never would ever leave him alone
Until his level had been low on testosterone
And rumors started to run amok and amiss
Monstrous mate he might have forgotten to kiss.

Hate to say this butttt
How about this one for
humorous Horn poem of the
day? Don't want to horn in
on anyone's business though.
Ho-ho-ho
What an overwhelming Sunday…what a overwhelming 5 minutes of my life
I hate to say this, but I hope to end my life…where’s that kitchen knife?
All these questions thrown at me
Makes me wanna break free…flee away from this hospital
It’s not me… (x2) Could you see it’s not me?
5 minutes of overwhelming thoughts
It felt longer than usual
5 minutes of unbearable pain
I’ll try to act proper and casual
The devastating sensation stings me like a serpent
5 minutes of misery…I’m soaked!
I’m drowning in my distress (I can’t stand Sunday)
I’m dripping continually like a waterfall
I’m overcoming Sunday’s pain…
Dripping continually like acid rain .. . . .. .. . . .
hate to say this
some fight with fist
some a jerk
so be alert
some think theyer so cool
they drink wink and stink
END UP ON THE NEWS
HOLIDAYS OR FOR FOOLS
How do you hold on to the one you love when that’s not all you’ve been dreaming of?
Is it wrong to wish for something new or is this just something I have to do?
The number of times I tried to go and then you fed me stories and put on a show.
I hear the words you’re trying to say but I’m really not sure I want you to stay.
I’ve been trying to get you to comprehend that this is life, it’s not pretend.
It’s not a game of love and hate it’s about my dreams, my hopes, my life and fate.
I want to live and explore my life and I’m really sorry I can’t be your wife.
I wanted a baby but from no other, I wanted to be your child’s mother.
I wanted a life we both could live, I wanted much more than you could give.
I hoped for a miracle but you couldn’t see, the hurt I was feeling so lonely, just me.
I hate to say this without a doubt but I’ve lost all hope that this will work out.
I’m so afraid to be alone for this broken heart wasn’t made of stone.
You say you love me so if it’s true, then please just do what you said you’d do.
Could I have been telling lies all the time
When needed most, the truth cost a simple dime?
Shall I ask more, could this character do me wrong
Or shall I keep silence run deep long?
Who would have thought this would fly by,
When all I knew was hi and goodbye.
Cant really accept, but this got me real into
And I but swore to Heaven's ground, play is what I do.
See it coming though, the whole scene as I say
We all know the price is sublime as we pay
I do a lot, and running in between is never to deny
I too was foolish to be living a soul of lie.
Refuse as I hate to say, this was once in me
Didn't regret a thing as a smile lives deep by the sea
You did pretty well within the puzzle as to what I see
May this all never end as you're My first to be.
I really hate to say this,
But I lie to you almost every day.
I say I’m always honest with you,
But that sadly is a lie as well.
I tell you that I’m happy,
Or that I’m fine and or okay.
You never seem to see the truth,
But that is my own fault.
I really wish that you could see,
That I’m never really happy,
Cuz truth is I don’t want to tell you,
I want you to realize it on your own.
I know that I should tell you,
But telling you is so hard.
Because you always become upset,
And ask me what is wrong.
I don’t want to explain myself,
I don’t want to hear “I’m Sorry”
I want you to make it okay.
Because you’re the only person that can.
My dog he usually lays by me.
But when the games on he will flee.
He climbs up on a different chair.
While lying there he'll watch and stare.
I'm sure he's wondering what I'm doing.
He grabs his bone and begins chewing.
I wonder what goes through his mind.
Cuz mom is normally very kind.
I grab my beads and put them on.
He knows for three hours mom is gone.
He watches and waits till the game is over.
Then once again well over comes rover.
I hate to say this stories true.
I'm always a fan however they do.
Don't get me wrong I want them to win.
But I'll be there through thick and thin.
The green and gold are in my heart.
They have been from the very start.
She’s My Life
She thinks she’s not fancy
and she thinks she’s not pretty
and that she’s not good enough for me,
but what she doesn’t know is that; I don’t like fancy,
that she is pretty, she’s way too good for me
and that she’s my Life!
We’ve been together for what seems like forever
and I know I’ve gotten a little lazy
you know; I think I don’t even remember
what it’s like not to have you as my wife.
I hate to say this but sometimes I make her cry,
don’t ask me why
I guess I just take the struggles of my day
out on her
you know, the job, the bills..just everyday life!
Then I get to thinking.....what am I doing?
I must be crazy
what would I do if I go too far and she leaves me.
I can’t live without her,
Sometimes I can be such a slug.
Quickly I must say I’m sorry & give her a kiss & a hug
and let her know that she’s too good for me
and let her know that I love her.
That she’s my Life and I Need Her Forever as My Wife!

when i met you you took
my heart and
then you tore it out
thinking you would
not hurt me but you did
you said you love me
i beg to differ
i gave you my heart
my soul my love
that time mistaken
for giving you a
heart worth breaking
but i did i cant go back
and change it it is done
i have to move on with
my life and forget about you
and all the ways you hurt me
i need to fix my heart and forget
about it im tired of being used
i thought i found the right girl
but i didnt i ended up being used
like always i hate to say this
but it is true im tired of it
you treat me like im nothing
when im better than you
i would have died for you
i would have fought for you
i would have lied to a cop for you
i would even cry for you which on
the end i did cry for you all night
i loved you so much it wasnt funny
then have you break my heart
i wont let it happen again
When hearts get broken,
Real tears fall.
I sit there hoping I can show you all.
My heart's desire is all I want
Fight fire with fire; you'll be gaunt.
Time is essence of the heart
That teaches me lessons that tear me apart.
My thoughts lessen and I cry
You shouldn't be messing with me
I want to die.
A river forms behind my eyes
The love I once had for you dies.
Take the arrow, aim it straight;
Hit my heart and fill me with hate.
Listen up and beware:
My thoughts are churning
No, I don't care.
Time is shortening; you must hurry
Death is threatening.
My vision is blurry.
I hate to say this
And you I will miss
I wish I had one last kiss.
All the time we spent together
So sweet and so True
It's obvious to me now
That it meant nothing to you
I held you close to m heart
But thats not what you did for me
You made me feel worthless
Like a piece of property
You are just another guy to me
You're just another rhyme
Only another memory
Just a lot of Wasted Time
Sometimes you love me
Othertimes you don't
I know I ought to leave you
But I know I won't
No! I can't do this!
I think this other guy is true
I haven't got a lot of time
And I won't waste it on you!
You are just another guy to me
You're just another rhyme
Only another memory
Just a lot of Wasted Time
Darling, I hate to say this
But we both know it's true
You're just another guy to me
And I do not need you
You are just another guy to me
You're just another rhyme
Only another memory
Just a lot of Wasted Time
