You don't need to be Alan Poe
Just write what you know
It doesn't have to be great in the end
It doesn't need a rhyme
Just one word at a time

You shouldn't be alone
Since your thought are your own
Your writing is your friend
It'll stay till the end

Don't lie or conceal
Just  writing can heal
If you don't already you should pick a pen and just let it flow. It really helps alot

Butterfly

A caterpillar needs to die
To become a butterfly
Only then can it fly
Death may be the only way you can evolve and be able to fly

There are stories in the mirror
I read them everyday
Each day a new story
Different from yesterday's

Each day I read something new
But some stories turn out blue
Each mirror tells a story
To a stranger or friend
The stories they tell
Are different but never end

Each mirror tells a story
When it's in the light
But grows quiet and cold
If the moon is in sight

There are stories in the mirror
I hear them all the time
Just look in the closet
They are waiting to be told
there is always a something new about us each day and you'll find out if you look in the mirror everyday

Epicedium

My voice is cracked from crying
Who then will sing your dirge
It's hard to speak or say goodbye
Or stop my hands from trembling

Tears roll down as we shared the grace
I try to sing but start to cry
Now I stare at a soulless face
Hoping that somehow 'tis all a lie

Dressed in white, your arms by your side
The door is closed as you take a ride
To an Isle that lies beyond the road
A road there is with no return
A place that someday even I will follow

While I can't tell you how I feel
At least I can write you a song
That those who hear ur Epicedium
Will cry for then they know
An angel had left for home
Trying to write poetry based on willful inspiration. Hopefully it'll go pretty well

Lost

I ( Think! ) I

Do

I do marry you on the subway

From manhattan into Brooklyn   (!)

)(

When I was a kid I thought

YA KNOW

I THINK

If YA DONT MARRY A BAG LADY

YOU ARE  WASTING YOUR LIFE !

& I was so right !

)(

Gene diversity is very high in these

Sorts of unions

And the kids are so superior

Because of if

)(

)(

Lost

In the madness of conformity

We squander our precious consciousness

To repetitiveness

And sleepiness

//

Ah

Me and my babe !

Holding hands

With each other

And you too

My friend

Love* may be a feeling
But
Love is not just how you feel,

I love you may be the right words
But
Love is not just what you say,

Love is a decision
And
Love is what you do.
