English I have been writing for about 7 years now, nothing serious mostly just having fun and making nonsense poems and such. Hoping to one day become an 11th or 12th grade English teacher. That's about it. :)
Well this old house It moans and creaks And quite frankly darling It gives me the creeps Upon the wood floors You hear no strides The middle of the night Is where the footsteps reside No one awake For a step to take The ghosts and ghouls Cause my soul to shake

Old House
These dreams I dream They come They go These dreams are dreams I can't control The evil visits when my eyes are closed They do things to me that are horrible They make me silent, I can not scream They paralyze my body, all I can do is think The beings that come to me when I sleep I wish they would not When they leave, I feel crazy The balance between visions and reality Blurred and hazy It makes me scared When they decide to let go I spring from sleep Tears and tears stream down my face I want out of my bed And to a safe place

Night Terrors
It can't see you if it has no eyes Reach in your skull and remove them It can't bite you if it has no mouth Enter you imagination and erase it It can't hear you if it has no ears Trespass in your cranium and take them away It can't smell you if it has no nose Drift to your mind and make it disappear It can't grab you if it has no arms Storm your brain and ****** them away It can't chase you if it has no legs Hop into your head and sweep them away Relax, The monster that plagues you is now Powerless Now, Turn things around and terrorize IT

We All Have Our Monsters (Overcome)
When I was young I saw I smelled I tasted I touched Felt And heard I truly lived I saw My grandma Francis Fallen bridge, and Bright green, wonderful trees I smelled Sweet Jell-O cookies Vanilla, and Fresh, Crisp laundry I tasted Horse treats Coarse dirt, and Spinach I felt Excitement My dog, and the Cool, soaking rain I heard Days of the New Nirvana, And Rage Against the Machine I continue to truly live

Childhood
Silly Alice Why do you insist on chasing... That rogue white rabbit? It never ends. It's only begun! You'll fall deeper and deeper Down the hole. Your infatuation, Will be the death of you Join the greats. Janis, Jim, Kurt They welcome you. Wave and cheer Congrats! you're finally here... Whose next? Love this metaphorical trip It only lasts so long. Will you be reborn? Alice...?

Alice...
The kiss of the wind It's like being born again The orchards trees swaying in the breeze Atop this hill The smell of nature Soft and sweet Gentle and calm Impossible to notice A war in progress Half a world away The leaves of autumn Forever Changing Is like the time Never waning

Half a Wold Away
The army of darkness The night's minions Marching above me Their combat boots creating Silent thunder They come in droves Covering my ceiling With shadows of guilt Shadows of unknown They know everything I've done They hide, waiting, watching For something to report To the darkest depths Of my mind They do the same to you And the rest of mankind They feed off our secrets The dark ones fight for your mind To take over, to claim Don't get enthralled in their games Puppets of darkness They will hold you hostage To your own psyche Your cranial cage Will be your home Soon enough The shadows will pass The thunder will stop The guilt will never subside But, A new day will dawn

Puppets of Darkness
Sleeping with scissors The comfort of their contour Bring me sweet dreams Of vivid, cutting edge scenes Sleeping with keys Keep the scissors at bay Lock them together, lock them away Keys, the insurance of my steel Keep me safe, straight to the first meal Sleeping with pins Sharp, straight to the point They lever lead me astray Wit of a jester in a courtyard Jesting And jesting away Sleeping with inanimate objects Cold and dull Keep me safe They fill the null Inanimate objects Keep my bed full

Odds and Ends
Look into your kaleidoscope eyes See visions change Colors blur 'round Reality twists and fades With every shake of our lives Seasons change Slur into oblivion I reach out and turn the hands of time Back to when we were young The summers long Winters cold Our minds ablaze With ideas of revolution Now we're old Wise With hindsight in hand Not a thing I would change All those fights we had I would go through again Just to be with you The autumn breeze now blows Carrying leaves across our feet Chilly with the thought of winter Halloween nears The ghost of you That's all I hear

Kaleidoscope Eyes
Funny men in tall chef hats Marching about so wildly Stone soup and humble pie Main course and dessert delight Give me a dose And that girl two Vanity, her dream come true Narcissistic uncaring and cold A mid-evil blunder So daring and bold Spoiled brats And rotting Brauts Sugared too sweet Not telling the truth The gossip And all The Court jester The village idiot He sinks to the bottom She cheers to the top It's amazing the wonder The high school scene The many things That relate to its sheen The short stout bakers Making profit from weakness Some goods so smooth Some just the opposite The geeks and nerds Hackers and slackers Jocks with jerseys And rebels with rock Serve up course two and three Let's make it a festival Just you and me Vanity and sheen Were just getting started This is high school This mid-evil concert For four years we live it A new melody A new song It's not the end But the struggle Is on.
