Pie
You are the apple of my eye sweet as pie I'll love you until I die.

To me you are the Center of My Universe the sun rises and sets just for you.  Poem Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Pile of bones buried beneath the ground with an unknown story that needs to be told.

Their pain their suffering and love story that could Rock the ages.

This is a mystery that Lies Beneath us. poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary Apr 2017
What is the point of breathing With Every Breath You Take you fill your body with life but fills your Soul with poison with the hatred that has filled the air like pollution it is harmful to your Soul.

it is harmful to your mind and sometimes can be harmful to your body.

What is the point of speaking when most words that come out of your mouth are filled with hate like Venom we spit because we are like vipers always targeting our next prey and because we have nothing better to say.

We are wolves in sheep's clothing mean and cruel our words are like daggers to the heart making life in this world almost unbearable sometimes I wonder what is the point why do we go on?

Why do we push forward?

Maybe it's the light that shines in on us every once in a while that keeps us afloat Could That Be Love?

I don't know all I know is that I'm still here still moving forward trying to find a reason for living in this place we call life. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Stress and pressure can turn a person mad and made you question their insanity.

A lot of times we are put in a situation that we cannot get out of because so it's like running in quicksand and when the last shred of Hope vanishes before your eyes you snap.

And turns you into a tornado of pressure crushing everyone in your way.

And when the storm dies down you realize what you went mad over wasn't worth it in the first place. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
Drive mad and you will get a ticket straight to hell.

Where you'll Race the devil for your soul.

And hopefully win if you have the Right Moves but if you're too slow you'll be too late and you'll become a prisoner of your own rage. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
You destroyed my life and gave me mental issues you made my young life hell.

The damage you did tried to destroy my future.

Every day I went to hell and back because of you.

how cruel could you be?

I may forgive but I'll never forget.

you made me hate my life and I wanted to die and that just made me cry as I fell asleep and had nightmares of you running through my mind.

But unfortunately for me you we're not the only villain in my life they were all around me.

Most tried to destroy my mind and others broke my heart.

Now I hear your words echoing through my mind like a song on replay.

It Causes flashbacks and panic attacks and outbursts that I cannot stop.

I cry and Shout and rhyme about everyone that tried to take me down.

Now I'm dealing with my issues as my doctor has got me on meds to keep me right in the head

So it's not my fault that my nerves are bad.

it's not my fault that my heart is sad.

it's not my fault that my mind is full of cracks.

it's not my fault that I was born in this world of pain

I tried to fight the demons within but it's like trying to hit a ghost that turns into smoke and reappear

But I'll keep fighting until God calls me home in spite of the abuse I endured ill try to stay strong

And not let the anger inside of me destroy the peace that my life can be.

so stop the bullying it doesn't make you tough it just makes you a punk who's out of luck. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
I dream of an unknown land across the sands

A place where humans dare not go

Filled with Immortals who seen the beginning of time

Their world is pure and not filled with pollution like ours.

They take care of their Earth because they know it's a part of them.

Elves hunting in the forest with bow in hand.

They are healers, Warrior's, Hunters and leaders.

They are bound to the earth so they know her desires.

Fairies who make the flowers grow in spring also fills the world with snow in winter and their magic makes shooting stars.

They love to pull tricks on the ones who don't know.

They're tricksters but sweet down to their soul.

Werewolves hunting in the forest for their mates and pups to eat.

Family is the most important thing to a werewolf if you mess with one wolf you get the pack on your back nipping at your heels.

Vampires recording time in their books so the young May learn what the old has known for centuries

Witches and warlocks in the castle on the hill made out of Glass.

They cast their spells to keep the world safe and so dark Forces can not enter their realm from the dark side but beware if you mess with one the wrong way you'll have a hex on your back before you can blink.

Dragons flying overhead teaching the newborns how to fly it's quite a beautiful sight.

Mermaids greeting Pirates after a long journey at sea.

They keep the ocean pure and protect their world from beneath the waves.

But I am invisible to them I get to see their world but never will I live in it and I guess that it will be enough for my soul.

So I will watch and love this beautiful world from afar I dare not change a thing about it.

It is perfection in the most natural form. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Purple skies and blue falling stars.

This is the world we dream of.

Our Haven.

Where dragons live and fairies fly.

Where nothing is impossible and everyone gets a happily-ever-after. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Some of us have never been lost before and for the lucky few whose compass always points to the right direction you are truly blessed.

Unlike most who spend most of their time lost in this crazy world wondering why the fates curse them

Just puzzled by their unfortunate luck maybe one day the wind will turn and good luck will finally be in your favor. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
You think you got game but I'm the master

I made the rules that you most obey.

So stop going behind my back I got little birds who love to sing in every corner of the city So I know your loyalty ain't true

Actions speak louder than words

You think you're a big shot but you're not your nothing but a two-bit Hustler and I am the boss who has got the respect all you got is a nose full of crack

I started out underground and worked my way up and now I rule this city

So back up I'm the queen bee and you ain't Jack

You better step aside and learn your place or get a Bullet in the Brain.

Living in this house full of pressure and negativity has turned me into a volcano that will erupt at any second and when I finally blow my top.

it'll be too late to say I'm sorry.

“Because” I will be permanently gone to the land of insanity.

“As” my rage destroys everything in sight. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Change the Reapers fate he's more than death and loss he is the end to the beginning

He'll guide you with a loving hand to the promised land

So Just give him a chance and he'll be there when you need him the most .

I'm shining like a diamond in the Sun because my soul has been saved by God from above.

the road I'm on is straight to him

I once was told I'm going to hell because I sin all day but it wasn't me it was the old me I have been Reborn in God's love.

He is my true father and I will try not to disappoint him but hopefully he can see the good in me even when I can't.

And will always bring me back to the light when I am lost in the Darkness.

And forgive me like fathers do because he loves me like no other and that alone makes my soul shine bright. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Your wings are red and your eyes are white what are you?

Are you an angel or a demon?

Do you come from heaven or from hell or somewhere in between?

are you good, are you evil or somewhere in the middle

Please let me know everything about you I want to know you

I feel like I need to touch you

As I touch your chest I realize you are real And not just in my head Thank god I haven't gone insane yet and your heart beats like a hummingbird on crack

I wish to know you and the secret you hold

Take me for a ride we will fly around and never come back down and spend eternity soaring in the clouds. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Romance is beautiful.

Romance is simple.

It is dancing the night away and a dozen wildflowers you picked just to say I love you. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
Never go into room 209 on Hell's Road.

Once you enter there is no escaping with your soul intact

The Demons of Hell call it their playground

Where no rules apply and everyone dies

They say once you enter you hear the screams of the victims that came before but it is too late to escape you're already through the door

So don't go through that door I beg of you please don't.

Once you're in you won't ever get out and You'll wish that you had listened to me I'm trying to keep you sane and your body in one piece.

Once you do what I beg you not to do.

They will paint the walls with your blood and laugh in your face as you scream in pain and beg for mercy.

Mercy does not exist where you are at.

And once your reported missing it will be too late.

But you can't blame me I did warn you.

Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

I itch from head to toe it's from all the stress that consumes me

It is like I have poison ivy in my soul trying to destroy me

It's eats me up inside and like a fungus it's trying to turn me rotten. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
“When” anger runs through me like a wildfire.

I have these Twisted thoughts come into my mind making me wonder if I'm rotten to the Core.

I'm a monster in a cage and that cage is called my skin and I'm itching to get out and to play with your mind as Revenge. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Searching but never find the meaning of life.

It's hard to find with the chaos of this world it is like a fog making it almost impossible to see what is right in front of you and what is behind you.

So you never truly know what directions to go or are you just moving around in circles. Poem Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Secrets and lies can be like a double-edged sword.

“When” Secrets come into The light of day.

Not only can they be harmful to the person you kept the secret from but they can be just as harmful to yourself as well.

And when the illusion of lies are broken the trust that someone once had in you has vanished then you have to rebuild the Bridge of trust all over again Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Dangerous woman walking down the street she's on the highway to hell and she can't be beat

Misery business is her game

She got locked out of heaven for doing things her way

She loves New York with the city lights and the fact that it “never” sleeps

She spends her time chasing Shadows of the day and drinking her fear away she has a obsession with death and wonder why he never comes for her

She thinks that her soul is so tarnished that death himself Would not touch it.

So she stands alone in a world of misery and her own self-pity if she keeps it up she'll never find happen and the release of death. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Shadow's in the corners of my mind are filled with spiders and cobwebs and demons that creep through my mind without leaving a trace but always taking something with them. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
She
Shelby Mccrary Apr 2017
She
She has eyes that can see the good or the evil in people.

They are so intense they look into your very soul.

Her emotions are like a raging Storm That Never Calms.

Her heart is made out of gold.

She's sweet and loving when she wants to be but it's so hard to find her heart she locked it away.  

Like a hidden treasure buried on a Mysterious Island.

She speaks in rhyme because poetry is her true language.

Her hair as black as night. Her eyes are as green as the forest, her lips are shaped like a little heart, beautiful and soft to the touch.

And she can say a thousand word's with just one glance.

And her wild emotion's are controlled by the moon like it control's the tide's.

She wears her heart on her sleeve's so she's easily hurt.

And she could feel the world's emotions with her soul that shines so bright. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

I go from hot to cold in seconds.

All I want to do is go back to bed I feel like I ran a marathon in my sleep.

I'm wobbly and feel like I could drink water like a fish.

All I want to do is rest.

So goodnight world I'll see you when I'm good once more maybe chicken noodle soup will be my miracle cure. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Anger, violence, outrage and being offended by every little thing.

This is the sign of the time

Once we accepted a man's word because his word was his bond but now we can't trust anyone.

There's too many people getting killed and ***** hundreds and thousands more each year.

When did it become so normal for us to see ***, drugs and death on TV that we no longer see the Horror in it.

And when someone is killed people become outraged and think they should take it up in their own hands but all they are doing is cause more trouble more violence leaks out more people get hurt and the person whose death they March for never gets their Justice.

Of course how we take every little thing now offensive and spin it out of control.

It's like turning a molehill into Mountain and that turns people angry and more people get offended and then they turn angry and that anger turns into violence it's a vicious circle.

Why can't we just go back to when the world was simple and people weren't blowing other people up.

There weren't riot in the streets that ended up with more people hurt.

Good cops weren't getting persecuted because the action of the rotten and the world was so much better.

You know your neighbors.

You could leave your doors unlocked and you didn't have to worry how the world outside your home was going dark. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Sky

Oh how I love my son. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Solitude is good for soul-searching.

It is a way to discover the true you without the noise of the world around you to distract you from self-growth and expanding your mind with new possibilities and getting back to the roots of nature.

That will help you bloom like a flower in the middle of spring. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

You cheated on me and I'll let you live now you owe me payment for your life.

Didn't your mom ever tell you do not play around girls with broomsticks, black cats and pointy hats.

I am going to put a spell on you and you will become my slave and I will be your queen so get on your knees and worship me.

I put a spell on you and now you are mine until you die.

The colors and beauty of life blooms all around us through spring.

It's like we are walking into a fairy Garden where the colors were once drab are now beautiful, bright and bold.

Lost and Stranded on an island hoping for a rescue ship that may never come.

Barely surviving day-by-day by all the knowledge and quick thinking I learned over the years

Sweet and colorful is what you are.

Your mind like a maze and your heart like a jewel.

Your lips are sweet as strawberries and your smile is as beautiful as a sunset, Your skin is as white as snow and as soft as silk.

Your eyes are full of Fire more fire than a phoenix and in my eyes you are perfection. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

How can you say you loved me when you treated me like dirt you are mentally abusive and made my heart hurt.

Now I have Demons Inside my mind trying to destroy me all the time with the words you once said like a ghost in the night

They haunt me and taught me all the time And now I'm struggling to stay sane so I don't explode and cause a supernova that will destroy the world around me and leave my mind broken. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Sweet Misery My Love Is What You Are.  

You are as sweet as nectar but as poisonous as a Viper.

You are like a deadly drug always getting a sweet high but slowly poisoning your soul and you're so high you don't even realize how truly low you are, You ruin lives with a single kiss because you are nothing but trouble.

Always leaving misery Sweet Misery where you go.

some can even say that you are the devil walking on this Earth causing misery wherever you please. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
