james-cook - Hello Poetry

I sit here Every person who walks by I look up and wait for a word Seems like forever here in this chair The thought of losing you Well it just brings me to tears I couldn’t go on the rest of my years I’ll just sit here and pray I pray that god wraps you up tight And he gives your body the strength to fight Watching these people go in and out The uncertainty makes me want to shout Finally the nurse says let’s go sir the Dr wants to see you. I listen to him and a smile comes back to my face Because none of this would be possible without gods loving grace.

The thought of losing you.

I sit here Every person who walks by I look up and wait for a word Seems like forever here in this chair The thought of losing you Well it just brings me to tears I couldn’t go on the rest of my years I’ll just sit here and pray I pray that god wraps you up tight And he gives your body the strength to fight Watching these people go in and out The uncertainty makes me want to shout Finally the nurse says let’s go sir the Dr wants to see you. I listen to him and a smile comes back to my face Because none of this would be possible without gods loving grace.

A thought so grim I looked down the barrel and pulled that hammer Did that animals life matter? I say thank you for your life A poets mind is endless It jumps from one thought to the other In an instant It’s a new poem December has come and gone A bitter sweet ending The beginning of something new My heart is broke and blue. A poets life is words It’s what I do.

A poet’s life

A thought so grim I looked down the barrel and pulled that hammer Did that animals life matter? I say thank you for your life A poets mind is endless It jumps from one thought to the other In an instant It’s a new poem December has come and gone A bitter sweet ending The beginning of something new My heart is broke and blue. A poets life is words It’s what I do.

My mind is like a black hole nothing but hurt and dispare every time I get something that is good I throw it away because I don't know any different. my heart wants to love but the anger that pulls at my soul want let it In. Like feeling nothing but the numbness that my mind has become feels like that light at the end of the tunnel that is 2 miles away and your stuck in mud and can't move.. it's never ending

Light at the end of the tunnel

My mind is like a black hole nothing but hurt and dispare every time I get something that is good I throw it away because I don't know any different. my heart wants to love but the anger that pulls at my soul want let it In. Like feeling nothing but the numbness that my mind has become feels like that light at the end of the tunnel that is 2 miles away and your stuck in mud and can't move.. it's never ending

My heart on my sleeve I can barely breath You broke it in two I’ll sit here and wait for you My soul is blue Tell my heart we’re through I’m dying slowly here Girl I love you!!! Day after day It doesn’t get easier My heart bleeds My soul cracks even more I keep watching that door Like you’ll walk through any minute Wishing for a genie in a bottle My one and only wish my love Would be you.. My heart broke When I hear your name I choke I can’t get in my head That you’re gone and never coming home I just lay here feeling really low Minute after minute I’m slowly dying How could you do this You said you loved me I guess this is bye I’ll just hang my head and cry. I’m dying slowly here But you don’t care.

Slowly Dying

My heart on my sleeve I can barely breath You broke it in two I’ll sit here and wait for you My soul is blue Tell my heart we’re through I’m dying slowly here Girl I love you!!! Day after day It doesn’t get easier My heart bleeds My soul cracks even more I keep watching that door Like you’ll walk through any minute Wishing for a genie in a bottle My one and only wish my love Would be you.. My heart broke When I hear your name I choke I can’t get in my head That you’re gone and never coming home I just lay here feeling really low Minute after minute I’m slowly dying How could you do this You said you loved me I guess this is bye I’ll just hang my head and cry. I’m dying slowly here But you don’t care.

Imagine Imagine a world where all can be one Imagine a world where we don't need a gun Imagine a world where we need no drugs Imagine all you need is a hug. Imagine waking to peace and no senseless killings Imagine what a feeling Imagine there is no black or white. Imagine just doing wright. Take pen to paper and imagine the possibilities Imagine owning your responsibilities Imagine the smile on your kids face when no bullies push or call them names. Imagine your life with no pain.. imagine taking your loved one and dancing in the rain. Close your eyes and imagine Open your mind and imagine the possibilities Imagine saying hi to a stranger Imagine a day with no anger.. Imagine if we stood together as one Imagine how that will feel ? Imagine if we loved instead of hated one another Imagine that feeling my brother Imagine all as one Let’s make it a reality And then we all win.. Imagine my brothers and sisters. We all can unite we can all live as one. All we need is the faith of a mustard seed. Faith moves mountains. Written by James W Cook 07/18/2020

I’m Nervous !!! Girl if you only knew I’m shaking over here That pretty smile has me feeling like a little boy A little crush with the passion of a million dreams My heart screams Let me be the one The one that has that sweet goodnight kiss Or that pretty smile when we meet eyes It’s no surprise You already know My crush is you I just wanted you to know.

My mind so dark and cold Torn apart piece by piece My life has no peace Just ******** and madness Life full of sadness Thoughts of suicide are my norm Take that blade and cut my arm To feel the blood so warm As it spills from my arm My thoughts are of only death I can smell the breath of the demon Sent to bring me to hell The devil rung his bell The fires burn so warm It’s like being back in my mother’s arm Reborn into hell My dreams full of lies I dream to escape this life So my friend hand me that knife.

Screams

My mind so dark and cold Torn apart piece by piece My life has no peace Just ******** and madness Life full of sadness Thoughts of suicide are my norm Take that blade and cut my arm To feel the blood so warm As it spills from my arm My thoughts are of only death I can smell the breath of the demon Sent to bring me to hell The devil rung his bell The fires burn so warm It’s like being back in my mother’s arm Reborn into hell My dreams full of lies I dream to escape this life So my friend hand me that knife.

One day at a time We as Americans have been blinded Broad sided we are puppets Strung up by lies With Every hate crime our country dies more. If you care don’t shut your door You’re scared to say your life matters No matter your skin tone You matter Stop the Racist chatter We are not animals We my brothers and sisters have the power We can change this Pray with me. My father in heaven Please protect our lives My black brothers and sisters My white brothers and sisters My Hispanic brothers and sisters And the rest of the brothers and sisters From all corners of our planet I’m on my knees begging For the miracle We need your power So my lord at this hour My prayer to you is to heal the hatred Ask yourself do you want your kids to live this in the future? Our children are the future We as a whole need to change. My brothers and sisters From all corners No matter your color I love you and you matter. So I say to you if we Stand united as one We can stop all this hate and chatter.

I sit here Lost in thought A battle hard fought Love can’t be bought Day in and day out I pour my heart out My feelings flow like a river My depression gets deeper That shadow in the corner ? Is it the keeper of death The grim reaper Deaths sweet keeper Every word the blade goes deeper Every breath harder then the last Soon this will pass I’ll be free Alone to walk the streets of hell My nightmare replays over and over I wake up in a cold sweat Man it was just a dream!!! Bet. I lay in my bed with a tear in my eye I just want to say bye. I want to feel peace I want to smile and be happy I don’t like feeling low Until that day comes I’ll lay here all alone.

Joke Am I a joke? I am only human I have feelings to. I might look tough on the outside But on the inside I have a heart too You probably think I don’t care Deep inside I do I had to do what I had to do So girl we are through Deep inside it hurts I’ll get up day by day I’ll put my right foot in front of the left That’s all I have left As we move forward I wish you the best I feel like I was a joke You say you loved me Then why treat me like I don’t matter I’ll say to you Thank you for the good times We had one hell of a ride I’ll dry my eyes I wish you only the best I hope you find what you’re looking for But as far as you and I I just shut that door.
