I went to the ball and met the prince we danced and dined and I had a grand old time.

That's until the clock hit 12 and I went running out and dropped My Shoe on the way

Now I'm locked in a tower waiting for him to rescue me hopefully he sees his princess underneath these rags

And when he did we lived happily ever after Sealed With a Kiss. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Calling all the monsters come enjoying the party at the Boo Brothers Club.

We will dance all night and it will be out of sight just do the monster dance to the witches scream.

Everyone's going to have a wonderful fright.

We Will party till the sun comes up and then we'll rest in our coffins for the day and party the night away once more.

What a scary good time it be. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

The Stars fell, the Earth crumbled and cracked beneath my feet.

I ran to the edge of the world but end up seeing the sea ****** into a wormhole.

I started to fall but I was pulled into loving arms of an angel and that is when I realized it was the end of the world. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

A feast of the year when we all gather around and tell the world what we are thankful just being around and not in the ground

“Where” we break bread with the ones we love and tolerate the ones with don't.

“Where” the smell of fresh-baked cookies are in the air followed by laughter from a good story that lifts everyone's spirits

And by the end of the day we say goodbye with a hug and promise to keep in touch until next year when we do it all over again. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Good Times Gone Forever More so get low or hit the floor

I'm the one to set you free it's called a jail break from your hell we will jump off a skyscraper and hopefully land on our feet

This game of love is overrated but I still enjoy the thrill of the chase.

Almost told you that I loved you against my better nature.

You will always be the man who lassoed the moon just for me.

My moon baby and no one can take your place or drive you out of sight because I can always find you in the dark of night. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

The Road Not Taken is full of mysteries and Avenger's we will never know.

All because we decided not to take that path and venture outside our comfort zone. And maybe we'll learn a lesson from this one day that we should go to an unknown land and Conquer it with our courage. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
I once was told that the night sky was a reflection of Heaven and all the stars were really Souls that shine bright and a shooting star is really a angel coming to Earth To save us from ourselves and the demons that lurk right around the corner ready to pounce at any given time

They're just looking for a weakness or a desire of something that we truly want.

So they can stab us in our backs or ****** us in the dead of night

But we won't fall for their tricks we will fight until the last of our light leaves our body and our soul returns to our true father who will Embrace us with open arms and show us we should never fear death because he will be waiting. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Don't let me down because Everytime You Lie I start to cry now when crying is easy as it is for me it tells you that something is wrong but you don't noticed you are clouded by your lies so you are too blind to see.

Pain turns to anger and I Want To Burn It to the Ground you're addicted to your lies that you tell and that you believe in everything you say


Don't you remember with the lies didn't get in our way.

So you turn my heart to Stone hoping that I would overlook your flaws but not anymore I'm going home.

I'll see you again when you know what the truth is.  Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

The moment I woke up I felt the need to go to the Sea I wanted to be on the beach but the moment I walked into the water I realized it was cold water and it Rock me to my core so now I'm sitting by a roaring fire to warm my soul up along with my fingers and toes.

It's such a beautiful Serene place that it gives me peace of mind as the waves crash against each other and the seagulls dance in the sky oh how I wish to never leave and spend eternity with sand between my toes and a smile on my face. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

The world is on fire and is burning before your very eyes.

But you just sit there and do nothing like a lump on a log

If you continue to do nothing all that will be left is Ash at your feet and smoke in the air

So speak up one voice will turn into many and before you know it you're a symphony fighting for the future of this world and the souls who occupy it. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Time is a fickle thing. It is never on our side of course it's never against us even though we feel like it is sometimes.

Sometimes we feel like it moves too fast when the ones we love have vanished from our lives and other times it moves too slow when we have nothing to do.

but time is not against us or for us.

It just does its job Counting down the hours The days the months and years. Its job which is to move forward that is all. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary Jun 2017
You got the devil in your head so don't leave me this way.

You're stronger than me even if you don't see it that way and all you see is a side of a bullet go flying by.

That's my kind of night when the gates of hell are at our feet threatening to open up the door to the dark abyss.

“Where” War of Change can alter the reality of this world.

And white walls are the very thing that keeps you sane it drives you mad all at the same time.

Time of Dying has came to past now we're all sitting in the grass.

Proud to just live one more day. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
The world is one big jungle some of us are prey and others are predators.

We live just to survive because it is in our nature to go on.

We're always fighting to get to the top.

To be the top dog in this fight and trying to fight the agony of this world

Remember keep your guard up there's always a snake in the grass trying to bite when you have fallen on your knees and are struggling to get back up. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

I was so in love with you.

You were my drug of choice so addicting like *******.

I feel trapped on this roller coaster we call life.

so I'm going to break away and no longer let the strings bind me to a world full of chaos and drama.

I'm going to make my own path and shoot down every bit of Chaos and drama that comes my way.

And never be ruled by a outside force ever again. poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Why does mankind do such evil things?

Some are just evil and enjoys the pleasure that hurting others may bring them.

Some are forced into evil acts against their very will

Other's say they do it for God they say it is his will

Many do it out of desperation

But it does not matter if you have a good reason or not evil is evil

Have you ever heard that the pathway to hell is paved with good intentions.

“If “you think you're doing something good by hurting others you're really doing something evil you're just too blind to see it. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

So baby back up and check yourself because every time I get knocked down I get back up stronger and better than before. I'll show you True Grit. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

The fields filled with sunflowers and the trees filled with olives.

The streets in the city are filled with so many unique people going about their day.

Some buying grapes from a street vendor and some eating ice cream on a hot day.

There are so many sights, sounds and colors all around us that makes this such a wonderful world Under the Tuscan Sun. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Every day, I wake up and put a smile on my face trying to be happy

I say to myself this is going to be a good day but of course that is when the demon called depression comes around and causes me pain and it knows it is hurting me.

Because it can see the pain in my eyes which happens to be the window's to my soul and my soul speaks my unspoken words it does this because my heart is too bruised to even try. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

An ocean breeze comes Blowing by and sends my wish up to you in the shy And you look down and stare into my Eye's and You can see my soul as plain as day you know it's as pure as fresh fallen snow

You fall from Heaven just to touch your lips to mine

You know you broke all the laws now your wings are turning black

But it does not matter because I have you and you have me.

Together always and forever. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

My heart is breaking and my soul is aching

I feel like there's a storm of pain inside of me

I can't believe someone stole innocent puppies away from their mother And one of those puppies was my Vann Gogh with his cute missing ear

I don't know if I should scream or cry I hope they are found safe and sound

Because I want my Vann back
Please God let them be found I want my cuddle buddy back. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

What hurt's the most is to love you but never be able to tell you it is like I took a vow of silence.

I got Wicked after you betrayed me.

I knew you were trouble but I fell in love with you anyways

just wanted to see Inside Your Heaven but you showed me hell instead

Maybe the Karma Police we'll lock you away for what you have done inside my heart

Instead of Let the Sparks Fly let the bullets fly into your soul and maybe some light will shine in and it will turn your soul white like light instead of black like tar and you'll finally know true happiness. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
The Wild spirits inside us has lost its Edge because we kept it locked up for way too long

Now it's becoming docile and weak too afraid to show its true nature

It believes once it comes out it will be forced into a smaller cage then before and we will eventually become robots forced to fit in today's Society

Drowning from the lack of passion and wonder we once felt about the world.

Now we are dull and blend hoping for a spark of excitement to refuel our passion so we can truly live once more free and no longer caged up. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Stop the crying he is not worth it

No more tears should you shed on his behalf

He is a cheat and a ***** old rat

His game is old and he thinks he has swag but he is a fraud who just got had

And you're an angel that fell from heaven your beauty Your Grace cannot be replaced

you're truly one of a kind So Divine

Once you walk down the street all eyes turn to you and your hair that looks like sunlight and your eyes are Bluer Than The Sea itself you're truly a walking work of art. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
Shelby Mccrary May 2017
My body is shaking my soul is quaking and my nerves are worse than they've ever been

My doctor took me off my meds now I'm detoxing through hell and trust me it ain't swell.

I think he did it just to be cruel I finally got something that helps me with my panic attacks then he snatched it away and now I'm panicking all day.

People say breathe in and out and control yourself but it's hard to control your emotions you can't help how you feel.

So I'm on edge and can't wait to sleep but my mind will not shut off so here I am writing this poem just to pass time.

And hopefully soon I will be right as rain.
