caety-lanel - Hello Poetry

I love the sound each morning When I wake up And hear my hips crack And my toes click And my ankles snap And my knees pop And I feel the ivory bones Stretched out and throbbing Over the arches of my feet Twisting my body into overflexed Overelongated Unnatural shapes Has been the greatest beauty in my life It reminds me that I dance

I wrote all of the words Right O u t Of me And I felt all the feelings Right Out Of Me And I used to cry And bite the insides of my lips But then I cried all of the tears Right Out Of Me And most would stop and think If they bothered to think at all That this left me all empty... N o p e! Quite the contrary in fact Let me Assure You Because when everything was Cried out And Poured out And Felt out Into the ground All that space inside was freed up and Open And there was nothing else that could fill it But happiness And that I am proud to say Is all that did H a p p i n e s s And I'm proud to say I've never been so full Of H a p p i n e s s

Let's join a whistle band And light matches with our teeth Lets ask everyone when they lost track of Waldo Cuz I havent seen that ************ since the 10th grade Let's believe in all the superstitions A little luck is what we've been needing these days Lets eat sushi and climb on rooftops when we aren't supposed to Just so we can look at the white lights and hope that the height will give us a little clarity Lets ask long questions with long answers And know that to talk you also have to listen Let's watch creepy **** and wear socks with high heels We'll be class acts till the day we die Though not in the way everyone expects Let's spend way too much time together And cut through backyards in the snow Lets pay for our café drinks in change And ask for favors because we're close Let's spill our guts and our laughs Because you're the only one who gets me Lets spell out words with pennies And decide life in ****** thrift store dressing rooms Let's cry and be sad With the promise to be happy And healed when the other is near Lets rip up t-shirts And change the radio in each others cars Let's take a million memories And expect the best out of life and gelato ice cream Let's dry up flowers in the summer to look at in the winter And wear too many rings on our fingers Let's hang out with ****** And rent a red convertible for the summer Lets read books and watch Mulan And take walks and get together just so we can nap Lets play assassins creed And listen to Bon Iver (or Bone Eyever) And take a break from thinking too much all the time Lets join a whistle band And light matches with our teeth Because all of this has meant more to me than a million everythings

I ache Because you ache And I feel it in the bottom left corner of my heart I wish there was a way To pinpoint what i want to say But truth is i cant describe you Words could never do enough Because The right ones haven't been created yet And i don't think they ever will be So i just wanted to say BREATHE your life god ****** Because if you don't the world will fall on its knees God I wish you could see How much you mean And never doubt it for a second Realize And know how special you are It tears me up When you are down And all I wish for is you to be happy Recognize And know that sadness is not something to hide But happiness is what you deserve And I want you to believe and see and feel And know as the truth, in pure and complete honesty That a better person has never been made And another truth is You're more different than anyone has ever expected Youre realer than anything this world has ever seen Either believe it...or I'll just have to do it for you

Remember When I Said I'd Write You a Poem?

Sadness came to me today And stared at me with shocked eyes Come away with me She said Her lips curving around the words As if chewing on broken dreams Fade away into the background Make them realize how much they've missed Through your silence And wish to have you back When they realize it was their fault Come away with me She said And I looked back at Sadness The skinny arms The glass legs The fragile heart Barely stuttering With her pointed features And tiny frame Ready to be outcast At the slightest whip of tongue How her shoulders bowed! And her mouth sagged! And I felt a pity for her But also a blind trust A cocoon wrapped around my heart then Closing it off as I leapt after her And wondering if I was really following Revenge

Sadness Once again

Sadness came to me today And stared at me with shocked eyes Come away with me She said Her lips curving around the words As if chewing on broken dreams Fade away into the background Make them realize how much they've missed Through your silence And wish to have you back When they realize it was their fault Come away with me She said And I looked back at Sadness The skinny arms The glass legs The fragile heart Barely stuttering With her pointed features And tiny frame Ready to be outcast At the slightest whip of tongue How her shoulders bowed! And her mouth sagged! And I felt a pity for her But also a blind trust A cocoon wrapped around my heart then Closing it off as I leapt after her And wondering if I was really following Revenge

There is a girl Across from me Who goes running Barefoot At 5:00 Every morning And you can see her trail As she runs through the dew Green imprints in a field Of silver And you can see How she lives For the sun To touch it's new rays Upon her back As she runs into a new day And now I see her Across from me Standing at her window Looking at the world With cautious hope But not going out To run barefoot At 5:00 Every morning Because of the rain That blocks her From the dawns rays And I write this as she stands by her window I sit on my porch In broad daylight A clear blue sky above And wonder what her rain could be

I wander down to the stream Turned pastel in dawns light The light shines through the trees Magnified by their leaves As acorns turn Like the trees in fall From green to brown The moss grows on rocks Mushrooms spring up Their tiny heads the size of a child's finger The grass grows along it's banks Long stalks of glistening life Feeding the doe as she wanders close I pick a blade Feet bared in the stream Serrated hairs on the blade Bury themselves in my finger I surrender to the imperfection That digs into me like a thorn And spend the whole day Ridding it of it's flaws Making the grass smooth Beautiful Whole Perfect If only to do this Were as easy in real life

Easy in a Way

I wander down to the stream Turned pastel in dawns light The light shines through the trees Magnified by their leaves As acorns turn Like the trees in fall From green to brown The moss grows on rocks Mushrooms spring up Their tiny heads the size of a child's finger The grass grows along it's banks Long stalks of glistening life Feeding the doe as she wanders close I pick a blade Feet bared in the stream Serrated hairs on the blade Bury themselves in my finger I surrender to the imperfection That digs into me like a thorn And spend the whole day Ridding it of it's flaws Making the grass smooth Beautiful Whole Perfect If only to do this Were as easy in real life

Blank streets Roses in the street below. The street below And the walking signs Waving hats Paper avenue From the balcony above
