Many poems I read seem so sad
The poems fills your eyes with tears
This doesn't mean the poems are bad
But sometimes a poem should be filled with cheer

There is so much beauty to write about
Not just lost love, fears, screams and shouts

A poem can be about
Flowers or trees
A poem can be about
Crystal blue seas

A poem can be about
a ring of smoke
Or a beautiful girl
Or about the beauty
We find in this world
Now it starts, the game is on
The time is here, it has begun
The biggest game in both our lives
The greatest price if we both survive

The game may bring us happiness
The game may bring us tears
The game may bring us sadness
The game may bring us cheer

You and I we both can win
You and I may tie
Don't give up, give it a try
But if you loose you'll surely die
It's a shame falling for the
wrong people
thinking they were the
right ones.
Passion in the midst,
Hunger is what it is.
Determined to make a change.
Scared for those in pain.
Pride wont let them stop,
Fighting with all they have got.
Acceptance of what is right.
Freedom for those in plight.
Up and down I go
From high to low low low.

Happy in the day
but sad in every way.

Hurting from the inside out
masking what im all about.
You see
the problem is
i'm drowning
in my
ideal of you.
Ive given up
on you,
on me.
On you and me.

For you will
never
Be for me.

And thats
OK.
Or at least
it will be.
When we met that first time.
I fell in love at first sight of you.
You had answered my posting
On the dating site.
You said you had answered because
I had written my heart
Is empty it needs filling with love.
Then you showed me your heart
It was so full of love
it was ready to burst open.
I drank and drank the
love from your heart.
and it was so good.
You told me it was like new.
It’s previous owner
Had hardly used it at all.
Hearts are flying high tonight,
I can feel the rush of wind in mine alone.

I am not a poet,
But a poem,
Just trying to complete myself.
Or maybe,
-I am Completing myself..
