through pain
or laughter

your smile
Zoe Feb 2012
so gentle your smile is
so shy as well
i don't know what you're hiding from
but i think it is cute

so warm your smile is
so timid as well
i want you to face the music
but take your time

so beautiful your smile is
so free as well
i want you to always smile
but also be happy

so wonderful your smile is
so day-making as well
i want you to be mine
but it's your decision in the end

conflictions
Zoe Feb 2012
inner thoughts
clouding what needs to be done
outer influences
preventing me from going anywhere
your just perfect
never change
inner thoughts
containing my wants
outer influences
tightening my leash
your just perfect
never change
inner thoughts
never ending
outer influences
dragging me away
your just perfect
never change

your effect
Zoe Feb 2012
heart racing
when that bell rings
body ready
when the crowd moves
mind jumbled
when those people get in the way
fingers fumbling
when i see your hair
temples sweating
when i see your eyes
voice silent
when first in contact
act totally normal
when the impulse is gone
disappointment in myself
when we're talking
sadness in my eyes
when we're done
anger at myself
when that moment is gone
eyes twitching
when the bell strikes again

we loved
Zoe Feb 2012
we loved each other
and we were proud of that
we didn't say it much
because we just knew
it was a fact as much as the fact that humans can't breathe under water
we loved each other
and nothing could stop that
we were always there for one another
because there was no place better to be
it was if we were at disney world at the age of 5, begging our parents for us to stay
we loved each other
and you took yourself away
we weren't together anymore
because you completely left
it was even written down that you would forever be gone
we loved each other

ticking
Zoe Feb 2012
the clock ticking
our hearts beating
the pens tapping
our brains dreaming
the feet stomping
our hands joining
the bell ringing
our hearts pounding
the lips kissing
our faces flushing
the feeling impulsing
our love increasing
the bell ringing
our lips separating
the clock ticking

troubles
Zoe Feb 2012
troubles all around
clumping about
never leaving
people suffering
from their troubles
but time will give them freedom
distance
clarity

troubles all around
terrorizing
the not so innocent people
suffering
from their mistakes
but time will let them go
let them learn
and be free

troubles all around
for everyone
we all get by
with the time given to us
to enjoy the freedom
the relinquishment
of troubles

I planted a flower for you
Zoe Feb 2012
I planted a flower for you
you took care of it
watered it
nourished it
talked to it

I planted a flower for you
but then you got mad
and you stomped on it
drowned it
didn't love it

The flower kept growing
while the neglect was doing the same
but it fought
and would keep fighting
till it was completely grown

you forgot about that flower
so i took care of it
nourished it
watered it

you came back one day
and saw the magnificent flower
bloomed to its fullest
and stronger then ever

the flower didn't need you
and so don't I

play time
Zoe Feb 2012
I hate the games we play
as if im cat
and you're holding onto string

you keep pulling away
but luring me near

playing my hopes
and thinking its all for fun

i will get that string one day
and hold it till the end of time

i love that string
and will one day make it mine.

i don't enjoy the games
but i can't help but still play

all i can do is love
Zoe Feb 2012
when that smile rises
and that laugh cackles
all i can do is love

love the way you tell jokes
or share a sad story

love the way you may laugh
or even shed a tear

love the way you talk
or while we sit in total silence

when i hear that laugh
and see that smile
all i can do is love

best prize
Zoe Feb 2012
so close to the winning

no ribbon
just a goal to be diminished;
the best kind of prize to be won

I know I sound crazy
Zoe Feb 2012
I saw you from afar
in a crowded place
with little silence

I wanted to know your name
your name was called
from what i think was your friend

I called for you
but no answer in return
I called again

You looked beautiful that night
and i know i sound crazy
but i wanted to know you

We never said hello that night
for the place was crowded
and the silence was too expensive

I think about you
now and then
and know i'll see you again
Zoe Feb 2012
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I love poetry
just not as much as you

those lips
Zoe Feb 2012
I love your lips
so smooth
and fragile

even when we talk
i can't help but to look
at those beautiful lips

I would kiss those lips
till i could no more
for those lips are amazing

I would caress those lips
till you were tickled
by the way i love you

for its not only the lips
that i truly love
since those lips have to belong
to someone that deserves them

Where do i look
Zoe Feb 2012
Where do i look
to find you
i don't even know your face
your laugh
your jokes

Where do i look
to find you
i don't even know your name
your past
your possible future

Where do i look
when i know your near
but too far to see

Where do i look
when i want you
but don't know who you are

Where do i look
to find the one

nothing
Zoe Feb 2012
i see nothing
coming to mind
coming to the tips of my fingers
that are oh so tired

i feel nothing
coming to me
seeking my hand
letting me fly

i hear nothing
coming to find me
looking for me
bringing me home

i smell nothing
coming from the one
who i was looking for
who let me go too far

the lies you dug
Zoe Feb 2012
from afar
many people may see
the beauty
the grace
the feeling you've left for me
but i see
what is true
what you've hidden
and now what i need to say
is that we're through
i thought this was more
then just a game
i thought it was care
and not a gift of shame
i held you high
while you were digging low
to the pit of my heart
just to let go
im done with the lies
that you speak so well
im done with the face
that locked me in this cell

spiraling
spinning
out of control
everything mute
everything blinded
colors swarming
like bees to their hives
head pounding
to the beat of an unheard drum
the colors turn black
the mutes turn loud
the blinded turn sightly
spiraling
spinning
out of control
head slowing down
body slowing down
only the color black
and no more sound

our memories
shared for teaching

puppet master
Zoe Jan 2012
play the part
the part of your character
the character
which the puppet master has created

we all dance
and laugh
simply putting on a show
for the evil puppet master

he watches with a giggle
creating new ideas
to entertain
his sick puppet master mind

as we laugh
and cry
to the demand
of our puppet master

we enjoy when he's happy
and suffer
when he is down
for he is the puppet master

we cannot fight back
for he calls the shots
and if he senses a rebel
scissors will be in the hand of our puppet master

don't irritate him
he has a temper
and a sick sense of humor
for he is our puppet master

Jenny
Zoe Jan 2012
I want to take it away
wipe away the sad
and make your day
I hate to see that face
with great disappointment
and disgrace
You're so pretty
but so much pain
and too little pity
I don't want to see the pain
that lives in those eyes
that cause so much strain
You are loved by many
and missed by little
don't go away my Jenny

wait
Zoe Jan 2012
i see the child in your eyes
crying
waiting
for the next disguise
you feel as if you have to hide
from the ones who hurt you
or the ones who have yet to die
the hatred seeping down each tear
growing
and progressing
by the year
the child who is waiting
won't wait much longer
too much to fight for
and only so much degrading
the end will come
where you can be set free
to find your peace
just wait for the next beat of the drum

stumped
Zoe Jan 2012
stumped
nowhere to go
nowhere to turn
stumped
un-relaxed chains tightening
un-relaxed brain imploding
stumped
no place to understand
no place to be free
stumped
nothing coming
nothing gone
stumped
understand
that i am stumped

a non received message
Zoe Jan 2012
sun drops tickle the backs of children's necks
as the adults are cold with bitterness

winds flow through the children's hair
as the adults worry about tangles

clouds pass the smiling children
as it wants to rain on the adults

trees shade the sweaty children
as it keeps the adults cold in their bitterness

the grass plays along with the children
as it grabs and wants more from the adults

the children and adults share one thing:
oblivion of this magic secret message nature is trying to send

enjoy being young and old
have fun

with you
Zoe Jan 2012
A place to be
to see
to feel
feel comfortable

A feeling of warmth
of solitude
of peace
peaceful sleep

A sleep like no other
uninterrupted
unified
un-alone

Alone
is what i’ll never be
when im in that place with you

stages of grief
Zoe Jan 2012
denying
what a beautiful distraction
a nice escape
a magical far away place
depression
what a dark place to be
a moody cloud
a unlikable state of mind
anger
what fury may come
a red hot steam
a uncooling rage
acceptance
what a sigh of relief
a loving way to be
a wonderful end
Jan 2012 · 335
i'll do what i can
Zoe Jan 2012
if you want to ask
simply ask
if you have a comment
don't hold back
if you need anything
inform me about what that is
i don't play games
i want you to be happy
just tell me
and i'll do what i can

Zoe Jan 2012
that one time
where we hugged
where we kissed

where you sighed
where you smiled
that one time

where i was holding you
where i was yours
that one time
we were happy

the way to go
Zoe Jan 2012
looking into the sky
for answers
is not the way to go
looking deep into the earth
for pity
is not the way to go
looking ahead
and down the road
will show you the way
to what you hope for
dream for
and
what you'll work for

for once
Zoe Jan 2012
no pity
no thought of mind that no one understands
no dwelling on whats happened
moving on
new year
no more of the old stories

as much as i wish all this can be done
it wont
there will be dwelling
and only slight moving on
people may understand but that doesn't matter

we all know whats good for us
but we dont want to listen to ourselves
so for once
listen

like no other feeling
a volcano erupting
in the very pit of sanity
boiling
boiling
no cooling system around
just piles
and piles

like a tantrum
wipes out all who is around
no where for them to go
just let the ashes envelope them
and **** them
boiling boiling

with lips of roses
and cheeks that have been flushed
