Hey so I am a poet who didn't even know it! :P Totally cheesy, however I consider this place like my blog, and any and all feedback is awesome! If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear it. Not a great poet, but still want a poem of some sort? Give me the details and I'd love to write some for you. I find it challenging to write on the fly and most of my poems are first drafts, if you think they need editing tell me. I am not afraid of criticism. would love feedback. Thanks for checking me and my poems out, and I hope you enjoy. :D
I don't like this reality I live in
I do not like it with its "Fox News"
I do not like it with any false facts
I do not like this President Obama
I do not like his ad campaign
I dislike having my rights revoked
He does not care
here or there
I don't think he cares anywhere!
I want my rights
right here
and right now!
I do not like Obama's Change
I do not like this Uncle Sam!
I do not like the rules or ways
Look out world here I come
with diversity and wayward thinking
This is my flag
these are my new ways
If I don't like the change in the world
then I will be the change that I want to see
so let me be
Let me live
in the land that was once free
Obama can keep his change
I can provide my own

How do I say
that I am sorry
For the words
that I've said

It's such a far away dream
It seems like just yesterday
we were
hugging
kissing
and cuddling
under the mistletoe
Now I just don't know
It seems so far away,
like an old forgotten dream.
We were close
you and I
Now we past by like strangers
in the wind
I look up at you
you stare back at me
We both remember
the old forgotten dream....
We both once shared....
both shared this...
Dream

I forgot the lyrics
I forgot the melody
to the song called love
Sing me the song
old lover
sing me the song
old friend
How did they drown
that night?
the two lost lovers
did drown at midnight.
They drowned in the middle of the night.
they fought for love
they fought for life eternal.
true love brought them together that night
they took each others hand, said lets go skinny dippin
for the very last time.
See they were rebels,
they were fighters
who wanted for their love.
And they got caught,
skinny dippin at night
they held each others hands tight
and Never let go...
You see I forgot the tale
of the two dead lovers
that were starry eyed
Held fate in their hands
and decided to swim for love.
Yet they both drowned
holding each others hand.
Lets remember not to fight
lets remember not to love
for the two dead lovers
did sadly drown
at night
I want to live
not for you,
or anyone else
I am greedy
I am selfish
lets forget how
to love and never look back
at the two lovers
who did drown

I used to believe
in the land of liberty
and the land of the free
There once was a place
where there were no laws
for none were needed
in this magical place
called America
Where English was spoken
there was no "dial one"
Where God ruled the land
with his firm hand
Where people trusted each other
where did this land go?
Where did the people go?
Where are my brothers in arms
that fought beside me in 'nam
We worked at the barns
and we worked with the cattle
We stayed up from dawn til dusk
The cowboys who used to roam
now sad and alone
do they sit
Singing to the blue corn moon
Telling tales of days now old
This country now gone
and wasted
Corporations outgrew the family farm
Greed overtook love
and the country that used to have
morals
freedom
liberty
justice
now all corrupt
due to
Televisions
wealth
cellphones
laptops
random things
we really don't need
over took my land of liberty
This is a song of sorrow
lost love
and how one nation under GOD
is now a nation without

Each person still free
to be the person they want to be
To fly and to grow
to flourish and to learn
For this is ideal
this is perfection
Within a relationship
one hides the skeletons
puts on a show
Yet when the truth is revealed
will you hide?
...From me?
Each night I lie awake
thinking
pondering
hoping
that someday
I can show you
Myself
Unapologetic
This is who I am
I am no longer ashamed
I am proud of who I am
No more baggage
no more chains
Together lets fly free
of this world
create a new passion for life
and liberty
and free will
lets find out the truth together
and we will fight our demons
Lets fall in love
with all our imperfections
and all our flaws
Lets get this on
and get through this
together we stand STRONG

Here I am
Lost and confused
wanting to quit
wanting to give up
give up
Searching for my inner strength
Searching for my Identity
who am i?
Who am I?
That I'd give up on me
When everyone's gone
and abandoned
when hope seems to be all but lost....
you just hold on
hold on
to hope
to love
to life
to God
one must believe there is a purpose
to all this chaos
There is no book
nor manual
or directions to this life
mistakes shall be made
We'll turn around
and I'll find you
and you'll find me...
Together life shall be
in perfect harmony
It will be beautifully
distorted, with images
and ugly scars
but that's not the reason
why we chose each other.
I love you
and you love me
We look past all of this
and together we live
in perfect harmony
like a garden
left and abandoned
with no sun or rays of hope
with a lack of water
The plant should dwindle
Yet the magic is found within
because that's where the beauty appears
So don't give up
and don't lose hope
Don't forget
to love and forgive
This is your life
write your own tale
make the mistakes
find the hidden trail
own what you can
give when you can
Just don't give up
and don't lose hope
Don't forget
to love and forgive
I know its cliche
but since we only do live once
make it count
own your story and your problems
and together we can become one of the
Greats

Senior year filled with bliss
Senior year full of lists
life lessons we've all learned
no Qur'an to be burned
acceptance and tolerance is taught
things we ought not do
and things we ought to
skipping classes oh what fun
getting lots of essays
never done enough
We've all got pretty tough
after four years time
spent on
homework
friends
experiencing life
is defiantly sublime
getting ready for the future
yet we still cant see the whole **** picture
kind of nervous
kind of scared
at the end of the year
when we'll really see who really cared
to be true friends til the bitter end
through all our ups and all our downs
clean out the friend list
get ready for the plunge
each day is another last
memories we shall forget
names that used to have purpose
are now found meaningless
find a purpose
find a place
society dictates
this is our anthem
that although times are bad
working is all you have
each election getting meaner
every day a little harder
HOPE MY ***
this is all a clever lie
high school teaches us so much
yet none is remembered
none is obtained
vague concepts taught to the blind masses
When will the people learn?
To STAND UP
Stand up against corruption
and illegal government spending-WHOOPS
guess that was left outta the text books
Stay civil
stay sane
Follow the "American culture"
Eat fat
stay thin
this is hypocrisy we now live in
Vote for Republican
Vote for Democrat
doesn't matter in the end
they are the same
Abercrombie and Fitch
VS
Hollister
Same brand
different label
Don't you see?
Can't you see?
This hypocrisy....
is real
as real
as you
or Me
End of line

this is a poem dedicated to those who have finished with their story
This is for those who lost a dear friend
this is to those few who finished reading
a beloved book
To the happy endings
to the sorrow that is ever lasting
Until you open a new book
This is for those who don't read the last chapter
hang on to hope for all its worth.
this is for the dreamers
and the believers.
I hang onto hope
and false beliefs
and lies
hypocrisy
just to be happy
for one dwindling moment
a fleeting second
gone.
the last sentence read.
where to begin?
Where to begin?
I start to write my own tale
one that will never end
add a sentence here...
and there
pass it on to my prodigy
have them add their twist to the tale
here is to the ever lasting
here is to no more endings
Lets write
never forget
never give up
hold onto the pen
never stopping
hardly thinking
letting the characters flow from the pen
just write
write
write

This is me
a girl whose trying to fall in love
The girl who forgot her way
I want to love I do
There's just no spark
no fire
nor flame
He is here
He is good to me
So why can't I fall in love tonight?
There's nothing here
emptiness
