Overshadowed by all the trees surrounding
he patiently waits for the sun to shine
a heart to big for his chest is pounding
in true hopes to grow as tall as the pine
he longingly waits for the dark clouds to come
and quietly whispers wishes for rain
he hears the sound of thunder like a drum
and water in the ground he starts to drain
he begins sprouting leaves luscious and green
taller and taller he begins to grow
no longer small overshadowed and lean
the other trees say he'll begin to slow
but they see once he's grown to his fullest
that he is much larger than all the rest

Tree Branches
Life is like a tree
you begin at the roots
slowly learning and growing
always being influenced
by what's around you
once you feel tall
and strong
you begin to branch out
splitting paths
making tough decisions
to better suit your needs
once your old enough
you being to protect others that you care about
become a home for others to run to
love and watch all around you
learn everything you can
then slowly
die and whither
as your soul becomes one
with the earth again
Pantoumb
So we at to think
what dreams unfold
are the missing link
to something old
What dreams unfold
whisper a secret
to something old
they wish to seek it
Whisper a secret
into the night
they wish to seek it
inside the light
Into the night
we went to think
inside the light
are the missing links
Guzzle
She told me he'd find his wings in time
he'd gain the right gear in time
As a child we are told stories
but we do learn to fear in time
He was never there for me
but mother said he'd be here in time
The mother had already crossed
by her side would be the baby in time
They shot up together he said
let it sink slowly in time
We had to start running soon
for they would get here in time
We saw them scamper and wait
for the fox would be near in time
he'd gain the right gear in time
As a child we are told stories
but we do learn to fear in time
He was never there for me
but mother said he'd be here in time
The mother had already crossed
by her side would be the baby in time
They shot up together he said
let it sink slowly in time
We had to start running soon
for they would get here in time
We saw them scamper and wait
for the fox would be near in time
Fear
Fear is only
a feathered falcon
hovering close
to high held heads
only to swoop
ever so suddenly
to sting
a snip of scare
at the heartless
hopeful humans
who roam
'round reason
to rightly
do wrong
slowly
sinking into the slime
hearing the barking
of the brave bourdering
hounds that
happily guard hell
Daddy
Daddy now I"m coming home
I never left you all alone
just to see you breaks my heart
she's the one that made me part
I really missed you
yet never knew you
I love you always
I never left you all alone
just to see you breaks my heart
she's the one that made me part
I really missed you
yet never knew you
I love you always
Small Packages
Murders come in small packages
they start with an idea
move on to a plan
grow to a fire
encouraged by a fan
the thoughts grow stronger
to where you can't ignore
the vices that are saying
take care of the slaying
the plans take to action
and the sickness is gained
once you start killing
you'll always be willing
to continue on killing
again and again

Carol Ann
Carol Ann can see things
that no one else can see
the evil things her dreams bring
are contained mentally
it all began at four
in the darkness of the night
dreams that flood with gore
ones that never find the light
always cursed and broken
no one ever knew
the things she should have spoken
instead they only brew
that no one else can see
the evil things her dreams bring
are contained mentally
it all began at four
in the darkness of the night
dreams that flood with gore
ones that never find the light
always cursed and broken
no one ever knew
the things she should have spoken
instead they only brew
Maybe
Did you ever think
that maybe cats
don't like water
because they'd rather
bathe in mink
I bet elephants
the ones at the circus
only make noise
in hopes of a peanut
maybe insects buzz
constantly
only to ensure
that they never
feel alone
that maybe cats
don't like water
because they'd rather
bathe in mink
I bet elephants
the ones at the circus
only make noise
in hopes of a peanut
maybe insects buzz
constantly
only to ensure
that they never
feel alone
Word Rain
The
process of
thoughts just run
it's like rain in your head
sometimes a heavy downpour
of words you never thought you knew
the dictionary fed them to you if he didn't
the many readings speaking of readings
I read a book once about the elephants
I mean the things that simply run through
your brain some drops larger than
others and it never stops the
word rain continues to
accumulate if only
day by day

Theo
Her hair is long wavy and red like fire
her body the shape of an hourglass
she lures in men with her strong desire
while singing sweet lullabies by the mass
to the sea men wander to hear and see
the pink starfish that accent her red hair
the words that she speak so melodically
and the jewels of abalone she wears
the men who are lured will never come back
trapped forever under the rushing waves
loyalty is what those men did lack
she will keep them forever as her slaves
don't dare bring young men to the sea where she sings
for to keep new men she is always willing
Those We Do Not Speak Of
Nose long like a wolf
but the tip like a boar
teeth like a saber tooth
yellow and stained
red cloaks cover their eyes
but their ears poke out
and turn from side to side
their backs covered like porcupines
holding the cloak snug
with claws even longer than their nose
and more stained than their teeth
guarding in the woods
guarding the far off tall wall
you'll never get through
but the tip like a boar
teeth like a saber tooth
yellow and stained
red cloaks cover their eyes
but their ears poke out
and turn from side to side
their backs covered like porcupines
holding the cloak snug
with claws even longer than their nose
and more stained than their teeth
guarding in the woods
guarding the far off tall wall
you'll never get through
Dull Gray (a color poem)
The car had driven off
gray skies mourned for the girl
her pale gray face staring up
at the few dark clouds
that reflected in her eyes
the yellow of her dress
has faded to flowers
she now blends into the tall grass
she once played in
the forgotten shovel at her side
her face and eyes
now emptied of soul
gray skies mourned for the girl
her pale gray face staring up
at the few dark clouds
that reflected in her eyes
the yellow of her dress
has faded to flowers
she now blends into the tall grass
she once played in
the forgotten shovel at her side
her face and eyes
now emptied of soul
Not Alone
Voices sights and feelings we get
we can't explain them so we regret
ever believing that they were real
though deep down they do appeal
feeling that dark sensation of loss
or hearing the voice talking of the cross
lost in a world all alone
they communicate with no way home
demons or angels we can't tell
but we do know what we experienced well
for who's one to forget
that one moment it hit
you that you are not alone
Man
The piercing dark blue eyes
the way he perceives himself is lies
looking really sweet and kind
making you want your hears to bind
he looks over to me
and the look he gives, he knows I have the key
to the secret he keeps
that with his heart he beats
not what he seems
he's only a dream
a figment of our imagination
the evil figure of our whole nation
the devil lives within his soul
which is what makes him so bold
he looks over to me
and the look he gives, he knows I have the key
to the secret he keeps
that with his heart he beats
not what he seems
he's only a dream
a figment of our imagination
the evil figure of our whole nation
the devil lives within his soul
which is what makes him so bold
Lost Boys
Sometimes fairy tales aren't so nice
not all fairy tale creatures are sugar and spice
have you ever heard of boys gone missing in the world
stories you've heard that made your mind swirl
my name is Dante and that's what I am
one young missing boy who was brutally damned
tricked into drinking blood of a different kind
thankfully not devoured but demonic in the mind
not only draining your every drop of life
but tearing you apart with teeth like a knife
it's not like the life I would have chosen to live
but it's the only on they had chosen to give
so if you ever wonder where those lost boys go
if only you'll think of me and then you'll know
The Fair Princess
Her skin as fair and white as winter's snow
Her lips so plump and red like spring's new rose
Her far off prince is who she must find
Though being held back by her life long foes
Into the death filled woods she ran a muck
A small wooden cottage found unkempt there
Was soon to be the place f much great luck
Seven little men came home to their lair
They let her stay but soon her fate to be
A which a foe disguised was soon to come
a trick was plotted and she could not see
the danger of the plan that had become
an apple bitten into by this miss
only to be reversed by love's first kiss
Her lips so plump and red like spring's new rose
Her far off prince is who she must find
Though being held back by her life long foes
Into the death filled woods she ran a muck
A small wooden cottage found unkempt there

Seven little men came home to their lair
They let her stay but soon her fate to be
A which a foe disguised was soon to come

Tragedy
Tragic,
We cry in sorrow
For the dead,
who suffer s long
but fly
n angels wings
to a special place
For the lonely,
with no love
or caregiver
in their time of need
For the lost
who have been gone
forever
wandering
We cry in pain
At the emotion
that takes over
day by day
in chaos
dramatic and confusing
At the physical
causing screams
cries for help
escape
At the shameful
burdens of guilt
wrong paths
life ruined
We mourn for all
The missing
wandering
lonely hungry scared
wanting to be found
The envious
driven
to do wrong
to be safe
from themselves
The cruel
treatment learned
from their past
and can't help
the way they act
We mourn for all
The depressed
hard times
needing help
from others
not willing
The pained
waiting
for healing
of scars
and apologies
The poor
working hard
trying living
family first
We cry in sorrow
We cry in pain
We mourn for all
Who act in vain
Tragic
Expectations and Lies
The truth has never been what you've told me
the words that escape your soul are lies
you are NOT who I expected you to be
you're not just one person but three
every day you hear me cry
The truth has never been what you've told me
and the way you hurt me you'll never see
every lie causes my soul to die
you are NOT who I expected you to be
never letting me have a bit of glee
and when you get angry I realize
The truth has been what you've told me
don't you ever sweetly call me honey
or try to bat your little eyes
you are NOT who I expected you to be
deep inside you know you agree
I know that I have not fantasized
The truth has never been what you've told me
you are NOT who I expected you to be
the words that escape your soul are lies
you are NOT who I expected you to be

every day you hear me cry
The truth has never been what you've told me
and the way you hurt me you'll never see

don't you ever sweetly call me honey

The truth has never been what you've told me

MEN
Smile as wide as I possible can
but only to hide internal pain
unfaithfulness consumes every man
and it is driving me insane
but only to hide internal pain
unfaithfulness consumes every man
and it is driving me insane

Sunk
The tide is high
in your relationship
don't want to say goodbye
but we're sinking
feeling worried
as sharks circle
rescue needs to hurry
or our love is sunk
in your relationship
don't want to say goodbye
but we're sinking
feeling worried
as sharks circle
rescue needs to hurry
or our love is sunk
Everyone Else
I was always left hoping
for more that I was getting
my life spinning downward
my heart such a coward
told i'll never amount
and only fill with doubt
about myself
never to feel happy
I wander lonely
always giving in
to my heart eating sins
to never be loved by
anyone who tries
never to know anything
about myself
always to hear everything
about everyone else
for more that I was getting
my life spinning downward
my heart such a coward
told i'll never amount
and only fill with doubt
about myself
never to feel happy
I wander lonely
always giving in
to my heart eating sins
to never be loved by
anyone who tries
never to know anything
about myself
always to hear everything
about everyone else
The Need
Boys always have the need
to give in to their greed
to make you cry
and wonder why
you thought it was truth
past the youth
knowing that his lies
were his "tries"
no love being felt
just being dealt
and you fall
for his games and all
girls never learn
that it will never turn
to love
for his games and all
girls never learn
that it will never turn
to love
The Pain
I sleep through the days
just so I can waste away
all those feelings
I'm still healing
from the last one
and I'm so done
with all that pain inside
it pulls my heart like ocean tides
and I can't take it
so I just loose it
I'm done sleeping through the days
and wasting my life away
because I love you
and my heart goes out to you
Tyler Gray
He didn't mean to leave but the way he did hurt
though he didn't bleed he wore a soaking shirt
he said he'd always be with me always by my side
but then he died in the waters the ones with out a tide
never again will he hold me and tell me everything's alright
never again will he love me or hug me really tight
I know he went to heaven to live a better life
I know he didn't want to leave me all the pain and strife
he's up in heaven now living happy and free
though he can't be with me he's part of God's family
though he didn't bleed he wore a soaking shirt
he said he'd always be with me always by my side
but then he died in the waters the ones with out a tide
never again will he hold me and tell me everything's alright
never again will he love me or hug me really tight
I know he went to heaven to live a better life
I know he didn't want to leave me all the pain and strife
he's up in heaven now living happy and free
though he can't be with me he's part of God's family

...(stop child abuse)
I held my teddy really tight
my daddy is coming home tonight
he'll march right through that front door
then yell and scream at me some more
then hell say i ruin his life
I made her leave him, her, his wife
he'll come towards me sauntering drunk
telling me his life's ship has sunk
then he'll hit me hard and fast
only because of his horrible past
he'll hit me again and I'll fall to the ground
hurting inside and not able to make a sound
I try to crawl away from the beating hands
but then again his fist on my cheek lands
I can taste the blood almost choking
my dress and my skin completely soaking
there is no one here to save me tonight
and I'll never be able to see the light
he looks at my body lying helplessly on the floor
he kicks me over and sprints out the door
he's scared now because I am not rising
nor am I breathing after his hard striking
on the floor my body lays still
I died at four against my free will
my daddy is coming home tonight
he'll march right through that front door
then yell and scream at me some more
then hell say i ruin his life
I made her leave him, her, his wife
he'll come towards me sauntering drunk
telling me his life's ship has sunk
then he'll hit me hard and fast
only because of his horrible past
he'll hit me again and I'll fall to the ground
hurting inside and not able to make a sound
I try to crawl away from the beating hands
but then again his fist on my cheek lands
I can taste the blood almost choking
my dress and my skin completely soaking
there is no one here to save me tonight
and I'll never be able to see the light
he looks at my body lying helplessly on the floor
he kicks me over and sprints out the door
he's scared now because I am not rising
nor am I breathing after his hard striking
on the floor my body lays still
I died at four against my free will
Ode to Adam
In the February of 2008
Adam walked solemnly through his front gate
only 16 and a growing boy still
he was going to fight for our countries free will
and thought he loved me with all his heart
he had joined the army and we had to part
while yelling through tears of anger and sadness
I told him that what he was thinking was madness
leaving me here all alone was wrong
just sitting around listening to sad songs
a few days later I got quite a shock
I was waiting to tell him watching the clock
when the time finally came
and the phone rang
after talking a while I told him the truth
but he avoided the comment and asked about my Bluetooth
I told him again about the baby inside me
this time he accepted and cried with glee
we're having a baby I hope it's a boy
we'll buy a bigger house new clothes and new toys
he was very excited that I could tell
everything was really going very well
till the day he flew home and the plane broke down
it fell into the ocean and everyone drowned
except for my Adam he was still living
and when rescue came they were so giving
now Adam is home and happier than ever
he swore not to leave me or his child not ever

Power to Women
Love means nothing if it's not felt both ways
you begin to waste time moping and eating away your days
when really if he didn't love you
he never really deserved you
you have the power to keep yourself going
keep yourself happy and always laughing
need to understand that everything is meant to be
and all the girls will find their true loves eventually
you begin to waste time moping and eating away your days
when really if he didn't love you

Depression
With understanding come to know
what laughing lips never show
how pain and torturing distress
can masquerade the happiness
My First Love
I'm deathly afraid of water
but I have my good reasons
being someones daughter
I know they don't want me to drown
Tyler called me on my cell
and asked me to the river with his friends
I declined because of homework, hell
if I would have known I would have gone
ten minutes later I get a call
Tyler had gone swimming
in his attempt not to fall
he had gone under, and not come up
I miss Tyler bear
and wanting him here
I'm telling you it's not fair
1/4 of my heart is still in his hands
Songs
The sweet song of love
tells you all you need to know
about the world and how
when your hear breaks you cant sew
it all back together
like you wish you could
even with the help of others
you know you would
try your hardest to get better
make your life happier
but it won't ever happen
because we are doomed to be sleepers
and play with the devil
you can never get back
never make your way to heaven
your mind lacks
the knowledge that is needed
to find those certain kinks
that the brain produces
and one begins to think
it's the end
tells you all you need to know
about the world and how
when your hear breaks you cant sew
it all back together
like you wish you could
even with the help of others
you know you would
try your hardest to get better
make your life happier
but it won't ever happen
because we are doomed to be sleepers
and play with the devil
you can never get back
never make your way to heaven
your mind lacks
the knowledge that is needed
to find those certain kinks
that the brain produces
and one begins to think
it's the end
My Fault
I could have been there
I could have saved him
my big Tyty bear
I could have gone
I could have convinced him NOT to swim
my big Tyty bear
I would have made him promise
I would have called faster
my big Tyty bear
he wouldn't have died
or we would have found his body
all I want is closure
whatever did happen to
my big Tyty bear
Fun
One night here
another night away
there ain't no sure place
for me to stay
all glamed up
with nowhere to go
waitin for a boy to come along
so I can drop low
dance for a while
then grab his cash and run
that's enough for me
I can't handle much more fun
another night away
there ain't no sure place
for me to stay
all glamed up
with nowhere to go
waitin for a boy to come along
so I can drop low
dance for a while
then grab his cash and run
that's enough for me
I can't handle much more fun
Away
I think I've given up
your always too busy for me
I require the attention of a puppy
and I get the attention of a mortgage fee
I love how I can talk
to you for hours on end
but you answer short
and my heart needs to be mend
I don't think anything can fix this
I think we're falling apart
I love you more than anything
but your tearing apart my heart
Commencement (a poem when given random words to use)
Being in love is grand, Furthermore
Reaching for the highest point
makes you shine like Aluminium
It's a Treat
to see a Flicker in the woods
to speak the Latin language
colorful like a Peacock
and now I am Hurried
to end this poem. Tragic

Beautiful
Her sweet blue eyes
as bright as the skies
and her round button nose
shows no foes
her blonde curly hair
and her skin so fair
freckles are scattered
like little paint splatters
make her never dull
but always beautiful

Sorry
You say your sorry
well so am I
you shouldn't try to change me
well now I'm done
it's completely over
aren't you glad you won
I won't bother you
no more disappointment
you can do whatever you want to
no more being mad
you won't have to worry
about me when I'm sad
get over it
I know I am
the pieces just don't fit
You and Me
I thought we were more than sex and lies
out of all those stupid ties
those things will only hurt me
you don't understand I'm not ready
I want my dreams to keep
but your words always seep
through the cracks preventing me
from making a decision to be happy
I'm always trying not to disappoint
but the fingers always seem to point
I never thought love felt this way
I always feel like I have to pay
you don't realize how much I care
and how I find it so unfair
that one day you will have to leave
and I'll be left at home to grieve
I'll end every day in tears
and slowly pass away the years
until I can't take it anymore
and die from deep inside my core
just to be with you again
so my heart can be in zen
out of all those stupid ties
those things will only hurt me
you don't understand I'm not ready
I want my dreams to keep
but your words always seep
through the cracks preventing me
from making a decision to be happy
I'm always trying not to disappoint
but the fingers always seem to point
I never thought love felt this way
I always feel like I have to pay
you don't realize how much I care
and how I find it so unfair
that one day you will have to leave
and I'll be left at home to grieve
I'll end every day in tears
and slowly pass away the years
until I can't take it anymore
and die from deep inside my core
just to be with you again
so my heart can be in zen
I can't draw!
Oh! what a lovely princess
Oh! what a lovely tree
Oh! what a lovely fish
Oh! what a lovely bee
Is that a little boy?
Is that a tonka truck?
Is that a large castle
or a silly little duck?
It's a pair of boxers fighting
but maybe I'll just stick to writing

Freddy Crougar
Just the sound of it will make your limbs quake
and when you hear it it's better to run
because when he finds you he'll make you break
Freddy loves people and he loves to make
them into corpses it's his way of fun
Just the sound of it will make your limbs quake
his claws are sharp and are waiting to take
flesh off your bones nobodys ever won
because when he finds you he'll make you break
he wont stop his fun for anyone's sake
clawing at everything until h is done
Just the sound of it will make your limbs quake
he's stealthy and deadly just like a snake
look for survivors but there will be none
because when he finds you he'll make you break
claws screech against chalkboards they are not fake
look for a safe place but there isn't one
Just the sound of it will make your limbs quake
because when he finds you he'll make you break
and when you hear it it's better to run
because when he finds you he'll make you break
Freddy loves people and he loves to make
them into corpses it's his way of fun

Home
Sitting on the front steps of my new home
quietly watching the waves crash on shore
knowing I will no longer be alone
waiting for my love to walk through the door
gone for so long we hadn't talked in years
still I waited for the one I call mine
then washer away were all my darkest fears
and suddenly a noise came from behind
running towards him as fast as I could
I jumped into his arms and he held tight
I knew that I loved him and always would
and even after every single fight
my eyes filled up with tears and then I knew
that this sweet love would forever stay true
quietly watching the waves crash on shore
knowing I will no longer be alone
waiting for my love to walk through the door
gone for so long we hadn't talked in years
still I waited for the one I call mine
then washer away were all my darkest fears
and suddenly a noise came from behind
running towards him as fast as I could
I jumped into his arms and he held tight
I knew that I loved him and always would
and even after every single fight
my eyes filled up with tears and then I knew
that this sweet love would forever stay true
Lulliby
Now is the time for precious sleep
may all your dreams you closely keep
my dear little son
I hope you've had fun
for now you must not make a peep
may all your dreams you closely keep
my dear little son
I hope you've had fun
for now you must not make a peep
Stupid Boys
There once was a girl and a boy
the boy thought the love was a toy
the dumb boy had lied
the small girl had cried
and whos in the grave now? the boy
the boy thought the love was a toy

Winnie the Pooh
There once was a bear named Winnie the Pooh
he loved his honey more than anything
but he awoke with no honey. what to do
but look for honey and go wandering
he found a tree with bees buzzing above
and tried to climb it but the limbs did quake
he needed to fly like a little dove
to reach the honey for his stomach's sake
Christopher Robin lent a balloon
and that little black rain cloud he did pretend
to be to reach the top that day in June
into the hole he reached adventure's end
and stuck inside the hole his day was sunny
for he had finally reached the precious honey
he loved his honey more than anything
but he awoke with no honey. what to do
but look for honey and go wandering
he found a tree with bees buzzing above
and tried to climb it but the limbs did quake
he needed to fly like a little dove

Twenty Little Poetry Projects
1) The earth was born into the universe like a stone being thrown into a pond
2) And the sun shone above all filled with millions of light bulbs
3) On earth the smell of the bright green leaves rustling in the cool wind was sweet
4) In plain sight the song of a small bird sounded
5) From this song was made Jessie in the lost forest
6) And the forest wasn't lost
7) Meanwhile in the jungle Aydyn was made from the wild roar of a tiger
8) The earth and everything inside
SHUT UP
9) Because everything shut up all was quiet like in the beginning
10) "Peace' frog land hoe!" said Aydyn breaking the silence
11) Jessie replied with " the sweet singing bird of depression and love sings the song of marriage"
12) Then the moon shone bright changing night into day
13) At this moment Jessie and Aydyn rode the sun around the moon until the night was once again present
14) Because of this a girl named Ashers was born from the moon
15) Earth and everything knew that she would be the creator of the new world for humans
16) The large world in the small universe was soon made and held in the hands of the small child
17) The child then placed the universe into a bowl of water and it slowly expanded into the place we know today as earth
18) "Mi Amore!" Ashers would say
19) And every so often the earth would speak back to the child Ashers
20) The care of the earth again placed into the hands of a child
2) And the sun shone above all filled with millions of light bulbs

Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Rock
I.
a man sits on a rock
resting after his long trip
though he knows there is more
ahead
II
the small child
lost in the crowd
chooses the largest rock
and looks over the crowd
at his family
III
a small rock is carried
and set into place
as a room begins to form
into a house
IV
scampering quickly
away from the bird
the bug hides under
a rock
V
a deep hole
hidden by a rock
provides a safe home
for an animal
VI
a rock is shaped
and placed at the end of a stick
to help the family gain
their daily meals
VII
a rock raised
above her head
she chased away
the stranger
VIII
knowing that this would be
their spot forever
they placed a rock there
with their names upon it
IX
sitting in the car
a log road trip ahead
using a rock to write
on the dashboard
X
a rock was used
to crush the berries
for the Native American's
Paintings
XI
after jumping in the river
she striped
and set her clothes
on a rock to dry
XII
the foot print was saved
the rock held it inside
making the fossil
that we have now
XIII
the rock was broken
after the little girl had thrown it
only to find
the gems that had formed inside

resting after his long trip
though he knows there is more

Brother (based on the painting Nighthawks by Edward Hopper)
I sit at Phillies with Gray
It's dark and almost midnight
All is quiet except for the sound
Of the coffee being made
And the quiet mumbling
Of the handsome man
Who is sitting across the way
From me and Gray
Then the question finally comes out
"So why'd you do it?"
I get no answer from Gray
And the handsome man
Who is sitting across the way
Turns his head up to look at me
His eyes almost begging to hear
The story Gray had to tell
Earlier that day me and Gray
Walked through the park
later that night I get a call
Gray asked me to meet him at Phillies
I get there fast and sit
Gray walks in calm
But with bags hanging under
His eyes as they glow a reddish color
He sits next to me
And tells me
That the handsome man
Who is sitting across the way
Is the dead man's
Brother
Magical (mash up with given vocabulary words)
By the end of the day Anne felt MAGICAL
earlier we had gone to the CASCADES
and every moment contained something SERENDIPITOUS
everything we ENDURED ended well
we had only gone for a CIVICS trip but
along the way we met a strange boy, ABANDON
he brought us to his cave called SHINE
Anne and ABANDON began a COURTSHIP
but the ending of our trip INTRUDED
their state of EQUILIBRIUM was off
until ABANDON was chased out of his cave by a MONSTER
he came to Anne like a scared MOUSE
Anne was in SCIENCE
but she smashed her EXPERIMENT
and ran off with ABANDON
when I told Anne of our trip
she said simply, "PREPOSTEROUS!"

I Dreamed
I dreamed about the stars
as they covered the dress of Aphrodite
and she danced
I dreamed about the sun
as it warmed the homeless and hungry
as the wandered with nothing more
I dreamed about the moon
as it lit the way for the ship
bringing soldiers home to their families
I dreamed about the trees
as they made shade for the workers
as they sat through the evening in rest
all of us living unappreciative
wandering over that which feeds us
that which shelters us with no thanks
the mother of us all slowly dying
waiting for her hard earned thanks
and we walk on
dreaming

There is a Place I Know
There is a place I know
that makes me feel the happiest
I have ever felt
though the location is never for sure
and the climate tends to change all day long
it is always my favorite place to be
I can choose to be all alone
or have my friends and family around
I can decide to be silent or loud
able to scream at the top of my lungs
and able to curse and swear
at all that angers me
I am able to have snow or storms or sun
and can be on an island a mountain or in a forest
I can be anywhere be anything be anyone
be in any whether and saw whatever
and no one would ever know
there is a place I know about
that makes me feel the happiest
that I have ever felt
though the location is never for sure
and the climate tends to change all day long
my mind will always be my favorite place to be
that makes me feel the happiest

Water Baloons
I sat on the pavement
soaking all over
as the rain falls
colored bits of rubber laying everywhere

The Sane are the Insane
The sane and the insane are all but the same
already decided what you are for
no meaning has that which you call your name
all of us born to play the little game
never able to find the exit door
The sane and the insane are all but the same
the insane seem to have so much more fame
the words they speak seem to matter more
no meaning has that which you call your name
the sane have little time before they're tame
minds and thoughts are lost and forever gone
The sane and the insane are all but the same
all the minds are overtaken by the game
and lost in thoughts searching for something more
no meaning has that which you call your name
for weather you are smart or you are lame
or work as the rich or beg as the poor
The sane and the insane are all but the same

Life
Life should be lived to the fullest
and everyone in life should enjoy
the people the things and the happiness
that surrounds every girl and boy

I am
I am the small arachnid in the corner
with my tiny web
waiting for my lunch
I am the two small black buzzing bugs
flying around the clear window
unknowingly
peacefully
I am the two bugs that do not know
that miss spider waits
closely and intently below them
hungry
I am the light song of a bird
hidden in the bright green leaves
on the tree that I am
outside the window
I am the leaves beginning to rustle
and down my trunk
suddenly
scampers the squirrel that I am
I am the sound of a car
coming slowly closer
and I am the squirrel running back
up the trunk
of the tree
that I am
I get out of the car
shut the door
and lock myself up
with a beep
I then walk
to the calligraphy room across the way
I am the room
seen through the window
in the back of the classroom
I am the people whispering
and the writing utensils
clicking in all different ways
as they begin to touch
the paper
which I am
I am the chairs
creaking
as the people that I am
turn and try to observe
other parts of the room
that I also am
I am the tapping of feet
and the slight jitter
of a hand
trying to find
the right words to describe
the thoughts
that I am
in greatest detail
I am the person turned
away
looking down
fiddling
I am another heel tapping
against the hard ground
I am the seekers and sandls
on peoples' feet
I am the bare feet next to me
I am the ant on the floor
next to the bare feet
crawling towards the small arachnid
that I am
sitting in the corner
with my tiny web
waiting
for my lunch
with my tiny web
waiting for my lunch
I am the two small black buzzing bugs

There once was a small boy named Jake
He wanted to buy a cupcake
Many miles away
With no money to pay
He went home with out his cupcake

Be
There once was a vowel named E

Working together
Like in the word better
And of course in the shorter word be
His best friend was the consonant B
Working together
Like in the word better
And of course in the shorter word be
Puss In Boots
There once was an orange puss in boots
He often caused greater cahoots
With his sword in his hand
And his musical band
He counted up all of his loot
He often caused greater cahoots
With his sword in his hand
And his musical band
He counted up all of his loot
Love
The sun and clouds are meant for thee
The moon and stars shine so brightly
The land and water all at peace
And all their love is sent to thee
Winter Lullaby
Sleep well my darling little child
Let all your dreams and thoughts run wild
The stars and moon shine bright for thee
Outside new winter's snow is piled
Let all your dreams and thoughts run wild
The stars and moon shine bright for thee
Outside new winter's snow is piled
I Saw Today

earth ready for it's second birth
nothing could amount to the worth

I Often Dream
I often dream
about the birds up in the trees
I often dream
about the way my life may seem
about the way my life flows free
and in my dreams friends sing with me
"I often dream..."
about the birds up in the trees
I often dream
about the way my life may seem
about the way my life flows free
and in my dreams friends sing with me
"I often dream..."

I Do Not Know
I do not know
why peace and war go hand in hand
I do not know

to war to fight for our home land
why we wait till we are damned

Happiness
Happiness is hardly ever so real
you can smile and laugh on the outside
and no one will know how you truly feel
the sadness your soul contains deep inside
the small girl comes home smiling and happy
not showing a trace of the teasing at school
not wanting parents to have to worry
when alone she lets her tears fall into pools
the high school boy dates all the cutest girls
but there's no feeling between them at all
the feeling in his heart begin to whirl
knowing that acceptance of him will fall
everyone's happiness is always fake
and depressing is all there is to make
you can smile and laugh on the outside
and no one will know how you truly feel
the sadness your soul contains deep inside
the small girl comes home smiling and happy
not showing a trace of the teasing at school
not wanting parents to have to worry

everyone's happiness is always fake

Death
He lives free within every one of us
and will live forever immortally
he drinks our blood deeply and thus
he eats away at our feeling slowly
he never feels guilt, but makes fear felt strong
and lies within our hearts as a presence
when we feel him it isn't always wrong
no one will ever know how to resent
the wrath he has felt against the human race
he will always pick us off one by one
until all of us have died at his grace
all will be at the fear of what he has done
he will once again rule over us all
and the great heavens then to earth will fall
and will live forever immortally
he drinks our blood deeply and thus
he eats away at our feeling slowly
he never feels guilt, but makes fear felt strong
and lies within our hearts as a presence
when we feel him it isn't always wrong
no one will ever know how to resent
the wrath he has felt against the human race
he will always pick us off one by one
until all of us have died at his grace
all will be at the fear of what he has done
he will once again rule over us all
and the great heavens then to earth will fall
Hell
Life is a dream
truly we are only sleeping
our real bodies
well
up in heaven's heights
on a soft cloud
waiting
to be awakened
by a demon
woken from our dream
only t see
the golden gates
as we are pulled out
of the dream of heaven
and into
the depths of
Hell
truly we are only sleeping
our real bodies
well
up in heaven's heights
on a soft cloud
waiting
to be awakened
by a demon
woken from our dream
only t see
the golden gates
as we are pulled out
of the dream of heaven
and into
the depths of
Hell
The Alphabet
All things have reason
Because they are all made different
Calling them is something
Dawning on them is that idea
Everyone has their own
For them to interpret in any way
God has given them life and living
How you chose to live it
Is what determines
Just what is going to happen
Knowing this and whatever else
Let me know what you
Might be thinking about
Not about just yourself but
Others too
People all think differently
Quietly sometimes loudly others
Right in their own way
Still wrong to others
This is the true thought in life
Undeniying that everyone
Varies because of their decisions
We can make out
Xactly how their life is
Yet to end soon in
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Fear
Fear isn't only a piece of the mind
but it only stays with those who crave it
Fear is truly the second realm aligned
with the realm in which our minds do sit
only those who feel the presences not there
are the ones who can really see through the dark
into the worlds and demons and death where
the vampires thirst and the werewolves bark
all those who see things that we cannot see
aren't insane but have all truth in their words
telling us there is where we are to be
for Fear is in every song of the bords
the idea of Fear will outlive all
and our Fear of death is never to fall
but it only stays with those who crave it
