chubbie-bunny - Hello Poetry

As I lay in the dark, a glow appears to my right Never seeing this before, I am ready to fight the bewitching sunrise begins to appear a ball of fire gets larger and my world becomes clear While fear is still there, happiness takes over me as I am overcome by its magnificent beauty Colors so new, I am at a loss for what to say the sun simply introduces itself, and we begin to play we dance and sing in the lovely heat I lose myself in a warmth so deep I find a home under its comforting rays we laugh for hours and the sun promises to stay I never want to leave now that my world has changed light is normal, though it once was strange but suddenly I sense the end of our time drawing near as my glistening sun starts to disappear I beg in not to go, it's lonely and dark "If it's meant to be, then it will" was the suns only remark Our promises faded like the colors in the sky lies blinded my soul like the light in my eyes The glowing gets smaller as the sun leaves and long with it are pieces of me Stuck in this place, now lost and alone Wishing for that sun, wishing for my home I should be okay because life was this way before but now, on my soul, the sun has burned a sore and knowing the warmth I hate the cold you can't miss a story if the story is untold Maybe the next sun will not be as warm as the past I can only hope for a temperature that will this time last

A Day in the Sun

As I lay in the dark, a glow appears to my right Never seeing this before, I am ready to fight the bewitching sunrise begins to appear a ball of fire gets larger and my world becomes clear While fear is still there, happiness takes over me as I am overcome by its magnificent beauty Colors so new, I am at a loss for what to say the sun simply introduces itself, and we begin to play we dance and sing in the lovely heat I lose myself in a warmth so deep I find a home under its comforting rays we laugh for hours and the sun promises to stay I never want to leave now that my world has changed light is normal, though it once was strange but suddenly I sense the end of our time drawing near as my glistening sun starts to disappear I beg in not to go, it's lonely and dark "If it's meant to be, then it will" was the suns only remark Our promises faded like the colors in the sky lies blinded my soul like the light in my eyes The glowing gets smaller as the sun leaves and long with it are pieces of me Stuck in this place, now lost and alone Wishing for that sun, wishing for my home I should be okay because life was this way before but now, on my soul, the sun has burned a sore and knowing the warmth I hate the cold you can't miss a story if the story is untold Maybe the next sun will not be as warm as the past I can only hope for a temperature that will this time last

I stare at blank pages and laugh at our similarities Emptiness A blank slate could be something admired But what is paper really worth without some sort of marking Whether they be markings of seemingly irrelevance, marks give meaning But empty is a cup filled with nothingness My pages may be blank but they are not clean Them They each have left their marks just not with ink My book is mine but they have added in their part Marks, sure, I can hide at first glance But glances become stares when the story is intriguing enough In what appears disorganized damage, there is an order First She took my book in her hand without asking Skimming through the pages of unauthorized territory She leaves behind a crinkle on every page from her careless game But I suppose the book is my responsibility What might be worse, I handed the book to the next Second We wrote together the present and the future Forever leaving an ambivalent past I don’t know if she ripped pages out completely leaving a hole A gap where promises once were She may have simply removed the ink Magic A simple flick of the wrist and the words are faded How can a page filled with hidden words hold more emptiness I try to begin to write over these pseudo blank spaces But my body is crippled from what I see as I stare, and I laugh

Emptiness

I stare at blank pages and laugh at our similarities Emptiness A blank slate could be something admired But what is paper really worth without some sort of marking Whether they be markings of seemingly irrelevance, marks give meaning But empty is a cup filled with nothingness My pages may be blank but they are not clean Them They each have left their marks just not with ink My book is mine but they have added in their part Marks, sure, I can hide at first glance But glances become stares when the story is intriguing enough In what appears disorganized damage, there is an order First She took my book in her hand without asking Skimming through the pages of unauthorized territory She leaves behind a crinkle on every page from her careless game But I suppose the book is my responsibility What might be worse, I handed the book to the next Second We wrote together the present and the future Forever leaving an ambivalent past I don’t know if she ripped pages out completely leaving a hole A gap where promises once were She may have simply removed the ink Magic A simple flick of the wrist and the words are faded How can a page filled with hidden words hold more emptiness I try to begin to write over these pseudo blank spaces But my body is crippled from what I see as I stare, and I laugh

Sometimes the pressures of the world are too much to handle the weight just crushes down on you and you don't know if you can get back up With every push upward you gain an ounce of hope but your foot slips and you lose your grip you want to scream in pain curse the Lord's name in vain but nothing but empty air leaves your lips You want to disappear inside your soul cut out the wold and attempt to fix your gaping hole but don't let them see you without a smile on our face Trick them into thinking you believe you are more than a disgrace or that you don't feel small build up that wall Standing at the corner of lost and lonely I wish I could leave my own mind pack my bags and throw an "out of order" sign on the door you meet someone who gives you hope but deep down you know hope is as far as you'll get "she's out of your league" you're right so lay down and act like it doesn't bother you tonight Punch out a few crunches hope the sweat will wash away the insecurities because they told you it would make you feel better both on the inside and out so why not use the chemicals to scrub your brain You feel dark and twisted and that the poems you write should have a happy ending as if it will make you feel better but not every story has a sunrise you can only hope yours does

The Unconscious You

Sometimes the pressures of the world are too much to handle the weight just crushes down on you and you don't know if you can get back up With every push upward you gain an ounce of hope but your foot slips and you lose your grip you want to scream in pain curse the Lord's name in vain but nothing but empty air leaves your lips You want to disappear inside your soul cut out the wold and attempt to fix your gaping hole but don't let them see you without a smile on our face Trick them into thinking you believe you are more than a disgrace or that you don't feel small build up that wall Standing at the corner of lost and lonely I wish I could leave my own mind pack my bags and throw an "out of order" sign on the door you meet someone who gives you hope but deep down you know hope is as far as you'll get "she's out of your league" you're right so lay down and act like it doesn't bother you tonight Punch out a few crunches hope the sweat will wash away the insecurities because they told you it would make you feel better both on the inside and out so why not use the chemicals to scrub your brain You feel dark and twisted and that the poems you write should have a happy ending as if it will make you feel better but not every story has a sunrise you can only hope yours does

I don't know why they say you broke my heart when really you broke my brain because my heart keeps beating but my mind will never be the same Broken promises you were supposed to keep stuck in a wave pool with anchors tied to my feet put my hands up try to grasp for air but when I reach the surface I see no one is there and for a moment I let my hands rest to my side sinking under, as I let myself disappear with the tide. It seems I can only get a glimpse of the sun when it comes around Maybe I am meant to live in a house with the shades all down But that's what it is, always a house never a home with the occasional visitor, but inevitably alone You took a piece of me just an incomplete puzzle remains I don't know why they say you broke my heart when really you broke my brain

Broken Brain

I don't know why they say you broke my heart when really you broke my brain because my heart keeps beating but my mind will never be the same Broken promises you were supposed to keep stuck in a wave pool with anchors tied to my feet put my hands up try to grasp for air but when I reach the surface I see no one is there and for a moment I let my hands rest to my side sinking under, as I let myself disappear with the tide. It seems I can only get a glimpse of the sun when it comes around Maybe I am meant to live in a house with the shades all down But that's what it is, always a house never a home with the occasional visitor, but inevitably alone You took a piece of me just an incomplete puzzle remains I don't know why they say you broke my heart when really you broke my brain

Dark clouds roll in over the calm waters Winds howl and signs tilt and totter As I sit and watch the big storm roll in Waves crash hard onto the sandy beaches Bright lights strike fast on the water it reaches As I sit and watch the big storm begin From the black sky, mounds of rain start to pour And boom crashes fill the open shore As I sit and watch the big storm hit peak Lights begin to dim, thunder grows quiet As nature starts to storms the storms riot As I sit and watch the big storm grow weak The seas calm and the black clouds disappear A sight of beauty to all who are near As I sit and view the storms creation

Storms

Dark clouds roll in over the calm waters Winds howl and signs tilt and totter As I sit and watch the big storm roll in Waves crash hard onto the sandy beaches Bright lights strike fast on the water it reaches As I sit and watch the big storm begin From the black sky, mounds of rain start to pour And boom crashes fill the open shore As I sit and watch the big storm hit peak Lights begin to dim, thunder grows quiet As nature starts to storms the storms riot As I sit and watch the big storm grow weak The seas calm and the black clouds disappear A sight of beauty to all who are near As I sit and view the storms creation

Air on my skin World under my toes I'll walk down this path Unsure of where it goes The darkness all around me I fear I'm running out of time Can't see where I am heading Nor sure that I'll be fine Hiding my wounds Deep down under my coat Hold back the words That try to escape from my throat My scars of the soul May dull my shine It's like a disease that weakens the body Not sure that I'll be fine Still I'll always have hope And keep my dreams on my mind Searching for nothing But maybe everything is what I'll find The doubts in myself Could stop my on the dime Forever questioning myself Not sure that I'll be fine Being around the ones I love Will help ease the pain Making others smile Always does the same So maybe there is a light, cure, and an answer Tho this life of mine With the help of my neighbors Maybe, just maybe I'll be just fine

Air on my skin World under my toes I'll walk down this path Unsure of where it goes The darkness all around me I fear I'm running out of time Can't see where I am heading Nor sure that I'll be fine Hiding my wounds Deep down under my coat Hold back the words That try to escape from my throat My scars of the soul May dull my shine It's like a disease that weakens the body Not sure that I'll be fine Still I'll always have hope And keep my dreams on my mind Searching for nothing But maybe everything is what I'll find The doubts in myself Could stop my on the dime Forever questioning myself Not sure that I'll be fine Being around the ones I love Will help ease the pain Making others smile Always does the same So maybe there is a light, cure, and an answer Tho this life of mine With the help of my neighbors Maybe, just maybe I'll be just fine

At this moment, it's our time At this moment I'm allowed to think you're mine We can joke, laugh, and smile But I know that just in a little while I'll stand and watch It's just about that time I fear The time I realize soon you'll no longer be here And I'll have to choke out the word "goodbye" As I use all my strength trying not to cry Because soon I'll stand and watch So now it's time for our famous hug You squeeze me tight so I feel all your love Now you get into your car and drive away I open my mouth but I don't know what to say So now I just stand and watch I watch you drive down the street As the world spins violently under my feet The car slowly goes out of sight In my heart I know something's not right But still I stand and watch I'll stand and take the blow Only thinking of how I never wanted you to go The hug lingers and I know you're not to blame I know you feel the same It's more time we wish we had So I stand there and whisper "I love you dad"

Stand and Watch

At this moment, it's our time At this moment I'm allowed to think you're mine We can joke, laugh, and smile But I know that just in a little while I'll stand and watch It's just about that time I fear The time I realize soon you'll no longer be here And I'll have to choke out the word "goodbye" As I use all my strength trying not to cry Because soon I'll stand and watch So now it's time for our famous hug You squeeze me tight so I feel all your love Now you get into your car and drive away I open my mouth but I don't know what to say So now I just stand and watch I watch you drive down the street As the world spins violently under my feet The car slowly goes out of sight In my heart I know something's not right But still I stand and watch I'll stand and take the blow Only thinking of how I never wanted you to go The hug lingers and I know you're not to blame I know you feel the same It's more time we wish we had So I stand there and whisper "I love you dad"

I’m falling off a bridge into the mouth of deep, black body of water It smacks my body Cold depth surrounds me Tries to pull me under First my ankles now my wrists I fight for the freedom of my wrists Knowing, hoping I could use my arms to keep me up The sounds of sirens turn to emptiness It’s just me and the monster of the sea Salt burns the wounds left open Icy water stings the remaining scars of my body Ironic how the darkness pulls out the light Loves lost and life given The vicious cycle never end Number given and taken I tried to give mine But warm alien hands throw them back Another task failed Or an opportunity given You judge

You Judge

I’m falling off a bridge into the mouth of deep, black body of water It smacks my body Cold depth surrounds me Tries to pull me under First my ankles now my wrists I fight for the freedom of my wrists Knowing, hoping I could use my arms to keep me up The sounds of sirens turn to emptiness It’s just me and the monster of the sea Salt burns the wounds left open Icy water stings the remaining scars of my body Ironic how the darkness pulls out the light Loves lost and life given The vicious cycle never end Number given and taken I tried to give mine But warm alien hands throw them back Another task failed Or an opportunity given You judge

Sometimes I watch “superheroes” And think just how lucky they are They can spin a web for the one they love and become New York’s superstar When I think about these characters And the powers they can use I can’t help but wonder Which powers I would choose If I had superpowers I’d speed up time We’d have a place of our own And you’d be all mine We could stay up all night We could watch the sunrise I’d tell you you’re beautiful And get lost in your eyes I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly Some heroes don’t have powers Rather a pocket full of money They buy all their gadgets To defeat jokers that aren’t so funny Only their true loves know Who they are behind the amour But I don’t have the cash it takes To be that dark knight charmer If I had superpowers I’d speed up time We’d have a place of our own And you’d be all mine We could stay up all night We could watch the sunrise I’d tell you you’re beautiful And get lost in your eyes I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly I would fly around the world a million times Just to keep you by my side I would hold you in my arms and fly up high Just to take you for a ride I will always be there I will fight your fight I will never let go Because losing you is my kryptonite I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly

Superhero

Sometimes I watch “superheroes” And think just how lucky they are They can spin a web for the one they love and become New York’s superstar When I think about these characters And the powers they can use I can’t help but wonder Which powers I would choose If I had superpowers I’d speed up time We’d have a place of our own And you’d be all mine We could stay up all night We could watch the sunrise I’d tell you you’re beautiful And get lost in your eyes I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly Some heroes don’t have powers Rather a pocket full of money They buy all their gadgets To defeat jokers that aren’t so funny Only their true loves know Who they are behind the amour But I don’t have the cash it takes To be that dark knight charmer If I had superpowers I’d speed up time We’d have a place of our own And you’d be all mine We could stay up all night We could watch the sunrise I’d tell you you’re beautiful And get lost in your eyes I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly I would fly around the world a million times Just to keep you by my side I would hold you in my arms and fly up high Just to take you for a ride I will always be there I will fight your fight I will never let go Because losing you is my kryptonite I’m no superhero But baby you make me fly

Like my eyes, the clouds open up The sea begins to part My stomach drops And my heart starts. My lungs try to breathe in But there is no air How perfect you are It almost isn’t fair. To everyone in the world Who isn’t like me Who will only get a taste Of what I get to see. Looking at you Is like gazing at the stars My heart races faster Than the fastest cars. Your eyes Are something I get lost in To explain the power they hold I can’t even begin. I want to squeeze you so tight You can’t get away So forever in my arms You’ll just have to stay. The softness of your skin alone Is enough to make me melt And your touch Is like nothing I’ve ever felt. Just one look at you I’m in a better mood From being cranky and down To an instant better attitude. When you are around Nothing else seems to matter I’ve climbed as high as I can go With you as my latter. You are the sunshine to my life The princess of my castle I don’t know why You put up with me and all my hassle. You are The air that I breathe The warmth that I need The better part of me. You are My world my sun my sky You are My personal lullaby.
