Rapunzel, Rapunzel, such beautiful hair
I bet it needs a lot of care
Oh how I love these lovely blonde locks
And those blue eyes, ever ready to shock
The tower in which you so sweetly sang
And all around the echo of your haunting melody rang
Often you’d let down your curly tresses
For the young prince’s hot caresses
Those wild kisses and encircling arms
Away from prying eyes of people on the farms
The evil witch in her scarlet coat
Would come visiting by the boat
And sternly call from right under
Her shrill voice would ring like thunder
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair
That I might climb the golden stair
Enchanting is this love tale
That children have heard all around the vale
And preserved to be retold again
The world will a lot from this gain

what love that burns
this hole in my heart
that gives and receives
have it all and
little that we know
where love must start
Emotion is a poem waiting to be born
Liquid words shaped like a tear
Poems of heroes on their white stallion steeds
Were born from the emotion of fear
Death come to all but the living remain
So comes the emotion of grief
A poem of farewell written with your tears
Can often bring the living relief
A poem of love can say what you can't
For the letters are never too shy
A lonely emotion can last for a while
When someone you love says goodbye
A poem of sadness is written with pain
Depression the emotion from hell
A poem of forgiveness is written with a smile
For it says that all is now well
Emotion is a poem waiting to be born
Laying dormant until it is needed
It can be born through any emotion
But it's usually when we're feeling defeated
hey baby
this is not mabe
you got style
baby i love your smile
let hang some time
baby your on my mine
don't pass me by
catch my eye
baby i love your walk
this is
TRASH TALK
hey baby
this is not mabe
you got style
baby i love your smile

baby your on my mine
don't pass me by

TRASH TALK
love brings me to you
and so much more
for the rest of my life
i love you so
yet we are lover and
i bring you flowers
together we sail away
through fields of gold
both hearts now in love
until the break of dawn
only because
love is what we speak
let love speak once more
Can charity be only a few coins tossed
in the street? It is another day,
and we are all just as meek and poor
as the last. Did God hunkered down
in the wet hollow of the soon to be earth
think, They will love me for this, one at least
will love me for this?
dear music,
so what are you going to do
knowing that i am perfect for you
your silent whispers
that sanq of warm breezes
your beauty i was unworthy of
but i listened
the paranoia behind trustinq you
i see you sweat
tiny dropplets hittinq paved cement
it glistened
it glistened
but please watch for the demons in me
on you
but we starve for the attention
i starved for your attention
you are the reason i feel harmony from up above
knowing that i am perfect for you
blood to weak veins
like blood to weak veins
your blood my weak veins
like blood to weak veins
thinning blood blue weak veins
i am stronq
so why cant love stay
why is our love no lonqer sustained
i never sleep knowing you feel this way
for you i actually dream
but this niqhtmare that you'd never aqain come back to me
i cannot bear
i stand riqht here
so what are you qoinq to do
you know that i am perfect for you, you choose--you choose
Love Poetry
P.S
now this insomia will drive you crazy
so
drive
slow
over my heart
This house is
so quiet
(as every single house).
In the morning - with a color.
And the night - with semitones.
I'll love you - it says - in this
town.
With the benches of those in love,
with the poplars in May.,
with the rains.
I'll love you - it says.
And life goes on.
As I look back over my shoulder,
I see him watching me
I know there can be nothing between us
Because I know he is a Marquis
And though I may love him
And I know that he loves me
There can be nothing between us
Because he is a Marquis
We were never meant for each other
But each other is what we want
But instead I am to be a Queen
Destined to daunt and flaunt
I can not marry him,
Love him though I may
He is to far beneath me
I’m to be nothing more than a display
A plaything to the King
Until his boredom kicks in
I’m nothing but a pretty face
He cares not what’s within
He doesn’t want a smart woman
Just someone to breed him sons
I happen to be his fancy, now
I’m soon to be undone
He knows not what is in my heart
Cares not that I don’t love him
All I want is a life of love
But my prospects are looking grim
So I wave farewell to the one I love
And proceed to the gallows ahead
And ready myself to marry the King
While wishing it was a Marquis instead.

Bean turd soup?
Who you calling a dirty orangeeater?
I am lord of the marshmallow!
Take a bite out of My Fig tree because
I forgot what time the dining hall
BANG COLLAPSES
I love you
As a blessing
Inside a prayer
I love you
As the
Crescent moon
When touching your
Brown maple hair and
We are breathing this
Sweet magnolia air
As two Martian brothers went out to play
They argued as to what it would be today
Flipping a coin the younger boy won
“I know just what would be a lot of fun.
Let’s play like we are spacemen from Earth
And we’ll make a movie to show we were here first
And let’s pretend that I win the Spaceman award”
“Hold on you droid, if I’m on board,
You will never win the spaceman of the year award”
“I will so. Honestly I get so bored.
I win the toss and you fuss”
“But, You haven’t the love of humanity for it, you woos”
Cranking up the old rusty government reject garbage can,
The imaginary thrusters coughed, and man,
did they begin to rise. .
“I don’t need to love no stinking humans to win no prize.
Get off of my Space Ship, alright”
“Well, slow it down dude, I can’t jump off at the speed of light”
Apr 28 2010 For Matt’s “Poems to Movies” contest
One day all alone I felt my soul in pain.
All the while I felt like I was going insane.
My heart was broke and so was my brain.
A troubled soul with no one to blame.
I was blinded by my love for him.
But his love for me was just a whim.
As we grew apart our love growed dim.
I'm so unhappy and life's so grim.
A troubled soul is where I started.
Now he's made me broken hearted.
No more us now that we've parted.
A troubled soul has just got smarter.

Love letting go
This lighthouse
Calls your name
What does this love know
This night still blind
This love letting go
This heart befriend us, now
Broken tears shall flow
Until, this love letting go
