I guess I was left alone after sixth grade, wandering my way.
You believed in me, offered up openings and let me say
what I would and delve into the sun and world and stay
and even you ended up with the lecture that betrays.
I wrote I hate because I was writing a friend's words and heart.
You asked me who I would be and even then I wanted all, a dart
where you wanted a girl to trudge through all scientific dirt
while you rode the airplanes and dumped the bombs and let off farts.
The alien chart given to us by the friend with death in his eyes
turned into a get after her and steal her gift away, mini-size
combat world I have entered, perhaps I don't want to see
that my skin and bones won't take the abuse and slip free.
You told me it was trash, imagination, you whose directions I embraced,
tall as my father, kind in punishment with paddle, food for an ace,
do what I can, make the baskets and short end instead of lace
but even then I crocheted for quiet and the ending of days.
How can I choose one star when there are minds that blink into focus
you were the exhaust shoot that let me fly without hocus pocus
I thought I had a community who could let me be without fuss
instead I became the joke who you could goad into a cuss.
Stars are supposed to offer a route into the future
I only have my mind and the heart break of needed sutures
I have Gandhi and Buddha and they hold my hands as lures
to study silence, and Pink Floyd to cuddle but not reassure.
So why is the man with a paddle and heart my only star?
Outside I am compliant and you're happy with her
but inside I am defiant that you have not seen me soar
because I am the murk you want to avoid for a lark.
Betrayals hurt the heart by ignoring the soul's worth.
Betrayals hurt the mind by ignoring the leaps of birth,
Betrayals hurt the soul by closing doors into endless hurt.
My stars always hurt me so I always restart.
I am still alone following the paths who clarity offer hope
and alone because my web of life is so immense I'm a dope
and alone because the daily bread tastes too much like soap,
when the quiet of peace and dark blue earns my truest troth.

poem for Brightest Star Contest
Form:
Dark days bright nights,approached by glamourous smiles with deep motives and dull
intentions. wonderful noise smothering particulaur senses. Infactuation with the ingredients
of a peculiar taste,brown water,liquid lightening, and a taseful 1738 blend. An atmosphere
full of pretty birds with broken with broken wings implementing the most astounding
memories that should last forever,yet who can remember.smoke the color of rain clouds
granting a peak at the angels fantasies. Whoa give me a moment-lost in translation
understanding words that cant be understood...rescue me from my destiny. morning glances
after acat on the roof entry, angered thoughts of a cherished love lead to a frustrated
intimacy. a special silence follows until broken by spoken half truths.looks of affection that
wish to flee,yet bound by the hearts leash. timid touches and cold concern,promises
announced in a whispered awe. one spilled tear for lack of faith sealed with a kiss of
blasphemy. finally a most needed coma arrives bringing dreams of memories lost. a soul
piercing eye with a pupil of contempt, all so grand for a toll that is sure to ensue...rescue me
from my destiny. A short distance through a long door, the glace behind at a comforting
illussion. The sun is bright always and the days are cold forever. Deeds committed worth
everything thats nothing, still the adrenaline enjoyable is embarked upon. For the sake of
small wonders attendance of the feast of wolves, hand shakes with the brutes during
agreements between civil monsters. Indulged in accomadating a demand amongst a people
of intense cravings and un-satisfiable urges. An un-mentiomable deal from he who is the son
of the one who knows the ageless stranger. reflection of shields with the bias of the eagles
integrity. all in a spectrum of lights that cause excellerated rates of the heart and a million
thoughts in the span of a moment. Surely a daily itenerary...some one please rescue me
from my destiny!
The choices we make
determine what is destined for the future.
The Hypnotist
Hobbes
Gaze into my eyes,
The gate to your demise.
And tell me what you find,
For now I own your mind.
Go forth and make them cringe,
On a merderous binge.
For now you are my slave,
Untill you're in your grave.
As Darkness consumes you, I cloud your head,
These visions of animals you shall make dead.
Angel of my vengence, your mission is clear,
Inspire terror and do it with a snear.
Do what i've said, fill them with lead,
Make them bath in a sea of red.
But you will go free, insanity plea,
For you will forever belong too me.
Gaze into my eyes,
The gate to your demise.
And tell me what you find,
For now I own your mind.
Go forth and make them cringe,
On a merderous binge.
For now you are my slave,
Untill you're in your grave.
You must remember, so never forget,
Do not give a care, and show no regret.
I show you a path and follow you must,
I'll fill it with murder, and crime, and lust.
You musn't fret, your path is set,
With a sword my enamies must be met.
My patiance cut thin, you must always win,
Or the price you will pay is great for your sin.
Gaze into my eyes,
The gate to your demise.
And tell me what you find,
For now I own your mind.
Go forth and make them cringe,
On a merderous binge.
For now you are my slave,
Untill you're in your grave.
I strengthen my grip, andweaken your mind.
You will never slip, I'll never unwind.
You'll never escape, my mind will not break.
My eyes are a drape, Your eyes I will rake.
You belong too me, you'll never be free.
Gaze into my eyes,
The gate to your demise.
And tell me what you find,
For now I own your mind.
Go forth and make them cringe,
On a merderous binge.
For now you are my slave,
Untill you're in your grave.
Gaze into my eyes,
I feed you my lies.
Look into my mind,
And what did you find?
You see how you'll die,
But i'll give you a bye.
Swear your life too me,
Or forfit it will be!
It doesn’t matter how hard I try to hide the tears
One keeps coming every minute your apart from me
Heaven is supposed to take your beloved away
Maybe we’re just to not love anyone so they can stay
Can’t hide my feelings though
God sure enough saw the love
Another day another life taken away
I miss you and I take it out on everybody
I wouldn’t have to if at least I could bury your body
Simple is as easy as simple can be
But I should’ve been with you more, please
Now I wish I can take it all back
Told you everyday you’re the best dog in the world
Listened to my cry even though I knew you didn’t realize
That was important to me
Sitting back on the swing that was demolished
Like the twin towers, you didn’t see what was comin
I can probably move on
But the truth is the thought of it is just too wrong
It’s like watching a murderer come into your house
Take a knife to your family’s throats and lash out
You were once my best friend
But I left you and wasn’t there at the end
Simple is not that easy simple is just not
Simple would’ve let me be with you all the time
When I yelled you came
Helped me through my worst pains
Protected me at night
Made sure I could sleep just right
No one knows what it’s like to become something we were
A dog and a human
Both sisters in their minds both girls workin for a livin
When I sang you howled back
Jumped on the trampoline and snuggled by my back
As I dreamed about what it would be like if eternity was possible
You dreamed about staying with me and nothing to make us stop, oh
And I’m sorry about the way I focused on other things
That isn’t even half important to me
Too bad we couldn’t have grown up at the same rate
Too bad I didn’t see how much I need you until you were gone
Too bad we couldn’t have made it through
Too bad I lost the only perfect thing in this world
Too bad I lost you…
Shelly I’ll never forget you
I look down from heaven and what do I see? *(THIS IS BASED ON A TRUE STORY,)
A body on the battlefield who looks just like me'
Body parts are missing; there is blood everywhere; (I COULDN'T PUT IT ALL IN ONE POEM)
The scene is so ghastly that I can only stop and stare. so bear with me part two is next.
RAB
Now the memory is returning; how I freely gave my life,
In preserving of democracy for my children and my wife.
Walking with my service buddies when I spotted the grenade,
And quickly dove upon it; what a price I paid'
I see the military funeral, many people gathered 'round.
The mournful sound of "TAPS" as the place me in the ground'
The crowd is now dispersing; please don't leave so fast.
Workmen cover me with dirt and top it off with grass.
At least my world is quiet now: no sound of bursting shell'
That man was right on target when he said "War is hell."
Advances, patrols, and skirmishes, causing quite a fuss.
The object: kill the enemy before he can kill us.
Now it is Memorial Day- and I wait patiently,
To see if anyone comes 'round to remember me.
I see the flags and flowers placed on graves so near.
Yet no one visits me; I'm alone again this year'
I hope my family hasn't forgotten the sacrifices made.
Perhaps their desire for freedom has slowly begun to fade?
I guess they've got their ball-games and picnics- and yet?
I see a uniform approaching- yes, it is a vet'

END--------------- PART I
The Price (Marionette)
Hobbes
Dressed in black, holding sword in hand.
I attack, you drop too the sand.
Prepare to pay the ultimate price,
You will suffer for your vice.
No acceptions, Hit the ground.
You will go out without a sound.
Hear me whisper in your ear,
I am fueled by your fear.
Your reign is up, the time is here,
Prepare too pay the price.
As your soul is pearced by my leer,
You won't have time to shed a tear,
I'll take the wheel, for now I steer,
Now answer to your vice.
Cruisifix burns your soul,
Holy water slips through hole,
You are done, step into your role,
A puppet on my hand.
Marionette, strings and all,
You used to try and stand tall,
And I was there to see you fall,
I'll cut you down where you stand.
Hear me whisper in your ear,
I am fueled by your fear.
Your reign is up, the time is here,
Prepare too pay the price.
As your soul is pearced by my leer,
You won't have time to shed a tear,
I'll take the wheel, for now I steer,
Now answer to your vice.
Let me look into your mind,
What I look for, I will find,
Then your power will be mine,
So don't resist, fear makes you blind.
Marionette on his strings,
This, your prison of all things,
You once could fly, I stole your wings,
Now see all the joy your dance brings.
I'm your master, bow too me,
Through your eyes now I can see,
Now you will never be set free,
My torture you endure.
Now your future is looking grey,
'Cause you belong oo me this day,
No one will care what you will say,
Of that you cn be sure.
Hear me whisper in your ear,
I am fueled by your fear.
Your reign is up, the time is here,
Prepare too pay the price.
As your soul is pearced by my leer,
You won't have time to shed a tear,
I'll take the wheel, for now I steer,
Now answer to your vice.
One night not too long ago when I was fast asleep
I had a dream so vivid it touched my spirit deep
I dreamed the Lord came to my house as any friend would do
I saw that He was troubled and needed someone to talk to
I said come in Lord please sit down; what brings You out this way
He looked at me through tear stained eyes and then I heard Him say
My Spirit is so heavy I'm burdened deep within
Since the fall of man took place the world's been lost in sin
I knew that I would come to earth to give each soul a choice
To live with me forever or to turn away My voice
For quite some time now it's been hard to sit upon My throne
Look down on My churches and see what's going on
Yes I did give man free will to choose which way he'd go
But how will he decide if no one will let him know
Eternal life is a gift it's up to everyone
To choose My everlasting love or reject my Father's Son
How I long for everyone to know My love for them
Especially in the world today where things are dark and grim
The problem is not many know I will forgive their sins
All they have to do is ask Me; to their heart I will come in
It really breaks my heart to see My children I have called
Sit in silence when they know someone's against a wall
What has happened to My church they used to share My love
My Father and the angels were rejoicing from above
Now the end is nearer than it's ever been
It's time My people tell the world I will forgive their sin
But if they only tell them one time a month or so
For many it will be too late to choose where they will go
Come on church I'm begging you to share Me with the lost
Show them just how much I care and how My life it cost
I am the only hope they have please help them find their way
So they won't hear "Depart from Me" on that final judgement day
Form:
Oh God, I think I’m gonna thank you a million times
And when I’m done, I’ll still thank you some more
Here you have me thinking
Even before I’ve opened my eyes to catch the light of dawn
In my mind you’ve already arranged it all
Yesterday I was worried what today I’d write
Now here I am with ideas from my dreams of the night
I don’t know of which first to write
But before I write a thing
I just wanna take a moment to thank Thee
For yet another day I hope will be splendid
Thanks for all the days before that have brought me to this
And thanks in advance for the better days that shall still be
Since I already have most of what is meaningful to me...
I’m gonna take this opportunity that would’ve been mine to ask a favour
To ask still another favour... not mine but for others
Please find it in your kind heart to send them my warmest regards
Please find it in your time to deliver them all the goodwill and good wishes I offer
Please find it in your power to help them in all ways you deem fit
Please find it in your wisdom to guide them to the doors concealed in the walls
blocking their roads
For at the end of the day
All my luck and happiness would be valueless
If somewhere within my subconscious’ reach
A friend isn’t as lucky or as happy
What a beautiful life... this that you’ve presented us
How I pray that each of us beneficially uses his or hers
As for mine, well...
I’m glad it has dawned on my cognition to praise you first
Now if you kindly may
Let me throttle off after my Skippy heart
For I see in these streaks of morning sun
The promise of delight and fun
Hey God, you know you’re my number one pal
So come along to my table for a while
Join Me, Myself and I as we play with words
I promise it’ll be fun
i walk this earth,just a
ghost
no family,no friends,just a
ghost
no home,no car,just a
ghost
no love,only a broken heart,just a
ghost
on my knees,praying to god,send me something to let me know i do exist,just one person to
touch my life,instead of being just a
ghost
he answered me,sending a true heart to love me just for
me
a woman who knows i have nothing,and loves me
unconditionally
someone who lifts me up ,everytime i get
down
gives me confidence and faith,constantly tells me not to
frown
i thank god everynight now,for me no longer,,,,,being a ghost
***This here is dedicated to my eldest sister and her husband stuck in a long distance
relationship....***
**************I step out of myself, jump into their mind to tell their story, I hope you
enjoy**********
I'm so far away,
I find it hard to cope.
Alone, I lay
I've come close to losing hope.
I need my husband,
my one and only.
Does he still wear his wedding band?
Emotionally stressed,
lonely?
I talk to him everyday,
but a voice over the phone
is not enough.
as a woman, grown,
alone,
It's rough.
i have needs
call me greedy
I yearn for his seeds.
Come to me baby
Please..
Your imprinted in my mind,
but your not here.
Working, struggling to find
you near me dear...
Fear,
Never....
Even though we're miles apart
I know I am yours forever...
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Here I sit,
around those I can't stand.
They throw childish fits
Two grown men..
Four years, I saw you everyday
Now alone,
But, I won't stray
My heart frayed
Over-played..
The commitment I have made
I'm yours,
No matter where I stay.
I miss my wife,
so full of strife.
Life,
wounding me daily,
stabbed by lifes' knife..
I try to be positive,
but It's hard
not to be negative.
My muse has gone away.
Alone,
I lay.
How will I cope today?
All yours I remain
No matter where I lay
every night I pray
but life without you
everyday seems gray
I must stay focused
through this
emotional hocus pocus.
But, the day will come
when we're together again.
I hate this, being lonesome,
I need
My wife and my best friend...
