wrote you down
sing it outloud
the best things in life are free
no thoughts necisary
instant fame
your new level
to sing and strum meaninglessness
not believe it
dont feeli it
plagerism of me
the papparazi writing notes on me
your fame game is sideways
best advice
take what i give you
regurgitate it
exaggerate it
paid for free
instant fame
whats the matter with you
you dont like me
dont like me at all
but thats all you hear about
through everyone else
take it all
page by page
one by one
rip em
out it wasnt my idea
it wasnt mine
he said i could heres the proof
no dotted line
scatter to gather
the resolution
such confused mess in my head
all i got to do left
is regurgitate you
never gonna be myself again
say the things you say
remember you by stealing your shoes
but then you wouldnt get away
round the revolving door of life and death
a slaughter of walking circles through the same door
i giove up
i give up
i cant do it anymore
circles leading you in
leading you out
again and again
i refuse to do it
never again
take off your shoes
better things to do
regurgitate you
say everything you said
say everything they did
again and again
knocking on the door
the endlessness of no survivors
no survivors
everyone dead
what am i supposed to say
regurgitating you
you love me to death
and no one knew
one day
the change
one day
i'll rest
one day when you see the circle of the door
in and out
into differtent slaughters
eart heaven and hell
circles of death
through the same door
and im the only one that knew
i'm the only that knew
but i never met you
so confused by my head
the heart in my chest
the eyes that never see their destiny
arms length for a date
regurgitating you
spit it out
pay the piper again
3 days of crazy
walking through that circle
supposed to be 13 days of hollow
no one knew
everyone went through
three times i saw you
i saw you
the world ended
everybody died
everybody left behind
knocking on deaths door
dont go through that door
dont go through that door
regurgitating you
regurgitating you
i dont know why
i dont know why
no one survived
yet we are here
we are
so
I miss your fingers on the piano,
As you close your eyes and coalesce with the melody,
The tune you play is the music of our hearts,
And the beauty of your music is my life.
That was the past and now I'm living in this lonely present.
Everytime I close my eyes I hear your voice,
Everyday of my life I hear your music.
Memories came flooding in my mind,
Silhouettes of the past danced as I played our song.
The past.
I played the guitar and you sang for me,
Wordly lyrics and the notes all became alive,
Your voice gave life to my music
Your voice gave life to me.
You strung the harp,
I played the violin,
Music is our world,
And love is its lyrics;
Lyrics that told the tale of our love,
Story-teller of the saddest romance.
I used to play the flute.
While you played your piano,
I sang our song
You sang out your heart.
And when silence came after our music,
You smiled as sweet as honey at me
And all I did was to smile back
Never knowing that the perfect smile was your last.
I kissed you and said goodnight,
Without even knowing that kiss was our last.
That night while I was asleep I heard the moon
Telling me you love me as she was singing our song.
That same night you were praying to the moon
To kiss me goodnight and sing to me your love.
That night I dreamt of us together under the mysterious moon
Holding hands while walking along the silent shore.
That same night you were waiting for the angels to carry you,
Carry you away from the pain you were feeling.
That night my smile was like forever
That night you were leaving me forever.
Death stole you away from me,
Death stole away my life.
So with no one to run to I sang our song,
Listening to the melody that we both did and sang.
I touched the piano thinking I was caressing you.
I strung the harp and played the violin
Hoping my music could reach you.
I'll be sending you my love through my music
Hoping it'll be just like before.
I'll forever keep the notes we wrote and the tunes we both played.
I'll forever dwell in the shadow of our love and the past.
I'll forever sing the music of heart and reminisce the memory of our song.
Goodbye dear love.
Primitive stirrings tinge my sleep.
Dawn’s grey mist welcomes my awakening coherence.
I traverse ice bound fields of summer’s past glory,
in search of winged game from the north.
I search for tundra dwellers that flee winter’s bleak death.
I seek the airborne migrants,
who call upon the brisk sting of morning chill.
Decoys are arranged on the shore of a vast waterway.
A believable trap is set.
I camouflage under the protection of a dormant tree.
Yellow grass, evidence of the forgotten warmth of longer days,
shields me from sharp eyes.
Peering out from the spent vegetation, I wait.
Scanning horizons with eyes and ears for the anticipated geese.
A soul chilling cold seeps beneath my layers.
My fingertips numb beneath stilled gloves.
They clutch the metallic instrument of death in my lap.
I fight urges to flee this hostile and frozen landscape.
Ice islands float about the closing waters of the reservoir,
pushed by stinging winds.
The breeze rustles the decayed plant life of the bottoms.
Finally I hear the call,
a shrill squawk of defiant life.
The gaggle approaches my deliberate display.
I bring the gun to braced shoulder.
The safety comes off.
A gliding bird is singled out as prey.
A fevered rush of frantic energy swelled through my rigid body.
Time condensed before untaken breath.
The metal trigger wrote smoke and flash to the once silent scene.
The acrid smell of gunpowder over fresh snow brought delight.
The bird’s flight was shattered.
End over end and downward the feathered being fell.
Bolting to it’s place of final rest,
I did not hesitate.
The last remnants of life I took with unashamed hands,
Ending the suffering of the magnificent creature.
Blood stained the pure backdrop of crystal waters and fine snow.
We were alone on the frozen shore.
In tribute to the fragile life I had ended,
I would with gratitude and awe,
make feast of the succulent flesh of my kill.
PRAYER FOR RAVEN REBORN
It seems only yesterday Raven was a child, but she is gone now,
Wandering in unknown mist-shrouded fields with no flowers gay.
Does she recall her sunny childhood, with never a stormy day?
Her soul feels not my protection, and I cry to help her....... but how?
Long ago I swept her up from the earth in my arms
As she tired of the bright warm running life of youth,
Put her to sleep in peace, and marveled at her charms
As she slept in the child’s world of dare and truth.
My child running through the deep butter meadow,
Young knees yellow with topaz dust. She gazes at all
The smiling saffron rays-of-sun petals.
A field of dandelions’ bright amber glow,
Shining in the happy flower of their life,
Their radiant lemon fingers full-spread
To welcome the golden king of heaven.
And in shady spots under trees she picks earlier ones,
Metamorphosed from warm mustard to pale milk -
Puff-balls with furry innards, an imagined skin,
Hollow airy spheres of seeds.
Parachutes grey-white in the wind, they glide and twirl,
Cheerfully child-chased by my little girl.
She checks her time-clock with puffs of air-breath:
Two puffs near the heat of noon, but
As evening approaches more breaths are needed.
Souls of flowers float away - like us -
And are reborn in some spot not proud:
Maybe rough surroundings, maybe dust,
Wherever admittance is allowed.
Oh may her rebirth be soon and may I hold
Her just once again. May her soul run again in meadows.
The evening of my life is bitter with sorrows,
Not knowing she’s returned from grey to gold.

Contest “Among the Dead” (A Rambling Poet)
No man should know unbearable grief,
and carry with him it's uneasy burden;
and regret could be as heavy as that,
not to have accomplished much before his death:
wouldn't a loving father be proud of his only son?
But mine followed his own greed and destruction....
No man should refuse to multiply his off-spring,
pondering over the concept of making mistakes:
as his insanely-infatuated and uncaring dad did;
this is a crude rejection of creating another human life,
wondering if he'll take the same gruesome path and constantly err!
Look! I could stop this life anytime, but my inner faith is much stronger!
God gave me life and I cherish its sanctification,
and only He can take it: if I rebel against His intention;
so fragile as a butterfly, and yet unbreakable as a rock
is my purposeful existence that I sublimely exalt
through my divine and unpretentious ways!
And would it suddenly end, my acceptance
would be certainly approved by my dignified ways!
Life free from me, and let fate be fulfilled;
and what remorse will be felt, if not the guilt of having loved less?
I exercise fairness and don't expect an equal amount of kindness,
whatever I give...it is genuine and never cold;
they can accuse me of being too harsh and judgmental,
and which lessons could I teach without wisdom?
Do I have the audacity to say what others fear to make known?
Is it hurt, shame, embitterment, hatred or even contention
that make a decent man cry out in despair to allow the act of forgiveness...
when accosting the final hour, which offers nothing but death?
No man should know unbearable grief as an unfair token of abstinence;
the evil doer always acts on meanness, not on humaneness!

You were torn away from me
I held you close but still it happened
You will always be close to my heart
But I will never again hold you
Hold you tightly in my arms
Every morning I wake and reach for you
But my hands only encounter air
Then reality returns and the tears fall
The tears just keep coming
Maybe one day I will get over the loss of you
You were everything meaningful in my life
But for now I will just hold the memories close
Hold them close as the tears stream down my face
You were my everything and I miss you with all my heart
Why were you taken from me
My happiness ended in the blink of an eye
It felt like my heart was ripped from my chest
My life feels empty without you
I no longer feel the joy you filled me with
I am lost without your love
There is a hole in my heart
A hole that only you could fill
But with you gone it only grows
Grows slowly until finally it will leave nothing
I know you would never want me sad
But I can never be happy without you
You were my reason to live
And without you I feel like dieing
You would hate if I gave up on life
But my life ended the day you were taken from me
How can you want me to keep living without your love
You took my love of life with you
And it will never return because it was you
You were my joy, and pain, and love
You were my past, and present
But you can no longer be my future
You were supposed to be my future
You were supposed to hold me close
Hold me and tell me everything would be fine
Who will do that now
Who will kiss away my tears
Who will banish my darkest fears
No one can ever fill this hole you left
I never wanted any one else to fill it
I only wanted you
But that's impossible now
And it always will be
I grew up with thoughts painted with rainbows and a sun,
With clouds and birds singing songs of bliss and success.
Gold and red silhouettes of puppets danced with fun,
And laughter and smiles; symbols of perfect happiness.
Those were the years of ignorance and perfection;
Years of childhood dreams and of memories,
Like a tapestry of the past in a mere mention
Shadows dancing and singing life’s stories.
But as seeds grow to towering trees,
The paint of color turned gray with time.
Puppets went from honest to a devilish tease
And it was then I felt that there are things I miss;
Life’s details and beauty I never noticed
‘Cause I was preoccupied with its default;
Happiness, perfection and the temporary bliss
Life’s a paradox and truth’s conviction.
The fire that once ushered the dream of perfection,
Burned everything to dust and mistrust
And to life I felt foreign;
And discovered the truth behind life’s shallow definition:
In perfection, a flaw is born
In every light, there is a shadow,
And union in every hearts that’s torn,
In every bliss, there is sorrow.
Right after a storm, there is a rainbow,
And sunrise in every sunset.
And to myself I told:
There is eternal life after death.
With nature I wished to commune
To mix with the travelling dust and the wind,
To listen to the sad notes of the birds’ tune
And to discover eternity with death; pale skinned.
I closed my eyes and breathed in the last air I’d smell
And with a graceful move took hold of the silvery knife
I smiled and thought of a story of a man, people would tell
And like a blood-thirsty tigress, the blade took away my life.
This is my living will
No matter what this is what's real
If I can't live with out a machine
Then what could my life really mean
If with out them I will quickly die
Please unplug them and say Good Bye
Because logically my life is done
Living with tubes and all the noise won't be fun
And no matter how hard it may be
Please unplug them for me
Life has been good even at it's worst
I have been Blessed as much as cursed
Made friends in many places
Don't remember all the names but can see all the faces
I have seen Joy Love Laughter and Hate
And what I want isn't up for debate
Please remember after I am gone
May be not one thing from my life will carry on
But the ones I Loved know it all to well
I am begging for heaven but may end up in hell
Either way so many people and places I did touch
About some kind of return I didn't care much
I just want you to promise me
You'll unplug the machine and set me free
This my best friend is not pretend
Please hold my hand and kiss me in the end
Without you I couldn't have gotten this far
You know just exactly who you are
Please don't you shed not even one little tear
Unplug me and remember I'll always be near
Even though my body you won't see
In your time of need you can count on me
I will watch over you every day
Trying to be sure happy and safe you will stay
Now you know my final wish
Let it end with an I LOVE YOU , a Hug And Kiss!
So please don't let me down
In all these years your the best friend I could have ever found!

Sleep Now... By Clarence B. Bowser Jr. the III
……..he was still behind me
Pursuing me-
Brandishing a dagger
Flaring anger-
I tumbled and fell-
And could tell
From his violent breathe,
That he was close, hot like the hearth….
I was up in a swing
But he was there as if with wings.
“God help me!”
But was death the fee?
And I ran with all mortal speed
But he was there, I felt the heat.
T’was as if there existed a pull-
For he never gave a gap than a bull…
He was there- there and there!
And again I fell..
But he was fast this time and was
Untop of me for the worst….
I stared up at his face-
Glistening with sweat at a fast pace-
Decorating a face full of murder-
But I prayed for a heavenly thunder….
His eyes were blood-shot
And his chest pounding hot.
I tried to cry but had no voice-
..and soon his dagger appeared with no choice…
I watched him with fear
As he raise the dagger like a peer
And watched it brought near-
Near..Near..Near it came without a tear..
Before I could summon my thought,
The very dagger was in my heart’s core.
And at that instant I felt a fatal pain
Where forth all my life was drained.
And so I died –
And here I am still in this light
Telling you the gentle tale
That all the fairies fear to nail.
“But did you die?” one of the children asked me.
I smiled for that was part of me.
“I died but had to return to tell you the story.”
And away they fled leaving me to worry.
And because I was bored,
I returned to hell out of the earth’s pore
And told the devil I was due.
Because at that time life could not be renewed..
