Paralyzed traveler
You've got a beautiful heart
And a beautiful mind
But your beautiful face
You'll have to see in time

As strong as an anchor
As gentle as a feather
When you're with me
I can withstand any weather

The faith you put in me
Must now you withdraw
Have faith in yourself
I have all along

Now use your beautiful heart
And use your beautiful mind
There are far better things ahead
Than any you leave behind.
I've always written about loss because that's all I've tasted, but I wrote about you this time.

I love you without
Pride, vanity, callousness,
Or jealousy.
I  love you without
Money, beauty, chastity,
Or sanity.

Call my name,
Call my name,
Call my name,

Make me resent everybody until I feel ashamed,

**** me over,
**** me over,
**** me over,

Til i give up , and never show restraint,

I hate you,
And you,
And you as well,

You can relate to an artist if he comes from hell.....
Call it now

You're such an ***
I hate your ego
I love your smile
I think you're evil

You make me laugh
Now I want to cry
I know truthfully
You can never be mine

I bury you alive
Or stab you to death
Or cuddle you close
And take a deep breath

Of that scent that you have
That never fades
I say it's annoying
But it makes me swoon and sway

I think this is bad
I shouldn't feel like this
Your my best friend's ex boyfriend
I'm ******* with this ****

Stop being perfect
And imperfect at once
Stop being so funny
I shouldn't have fun

With you 'cause she'll **** me
There's no doubt in my mind
You're ******* me over
And taking your time

So slow yet so fast
You pounce at your prey
You bring me in close
And I count everyday

That you're going to be here
And sigh in between
I'm missing you slowly
And you're killing me

You washed up
with the waves
last winter
with the
rejected corpses
of jellyfish
and rotting seaweed
pulled from sandy
trenches

you rolled in
with the sea foam
who birthed
Aphrodite
and the glass orbs
from sunken
ships,
gone by

in with the
driftwood
and the cawing of
seagulls
dipping down
to touch the
haggard surface
of your chariot

and with a gypsy "hurrah"
and the clank of my zills
my arm up
and my orange skirt hiked,
I ran into the under-toe
to save you

I will take you from the waves,
my love,
and carry you off into the night
(if that's what you want)
but I am not
the Pacific
or the full moon who
shows her face each night
who pulls you to the shore
when the
tide is high
I will shine a light on you,
but
I can't be your caravan.

It's the flow of poisonous ink
The way you think
It's deadly
It's the sound of a beautiful scream
The way you dream
It's poetry

Your words are a dagger
Only stronger
Piercing through hearts
Touching a lifeless mind
Pain in some parts
But not difficult to find

It's the rain after lightning
The way your words pour
It's rhythmic
It's the heat of the sun setting
Powerful like never before
It's electric

Written or thought
I care not
Just that it's preserved
Because
This life is a song
**What will be your verse?
I am nothing more than the shadow of humanity;
the silence of the voices that got lost in calamity.
The memory of oblivion in what some thought
the essence of all their dreams and goals
and the trails of those who bet and lost their souls.
The statue of some heroes, martyrs and poets
and the shame of those who borrowed victory but owe it.
The ink marked in the pages of history
and the tears of those who lived its misery.
The silence of the howls that no one could hear
and the echo of the voices that brought us here.
The faded illusions of the ones that lost the fight
and the ashes of the ones that have passed by.
The ghost of those who were and will no longer be
and the legacy of those who lived and left a path for me.
I am, here and now... and when I turn into I was
I will be forgotten, just like everyone else has.

Hp posting,
Fall in love every evening,
I would rather be coasting,
On the coast of succeeding,
I can feel my respect for you is reseeding,
I hated the way you turned out,
With these new found feelings of pure breeding,
Flowers and roses and tulips,
Just plant then repeating.
garden of betrayal

Not often have you faced so much betrayal,
Look em in the eyes, and say I'm hotter than your hell,
Everybody wanna know,
I dont show and I don't tell,
Good thing you could tell,
Words coming out your sack,
But I don't quite repel,
Your actions just may get you killed,
I'm not always nice,
But after awhile with so much anger,
I takes some pills,
Wish i didn't have to live...
Yeah

brown leaf
whirls  along
the  road
disturbed
by golf cart wheels
heads turn
just long enough
to register
it was green
once
2006 poem  , edited today.Lived near  a  golf course in the Houston area and   saw a lot of folks  running around in golf carts  on our subdivision roads.
I've got this
religion building up inside
I need to let go of the outside
though I know not which
voice is mine to find
I've gotta drive home
without a vehicle to ride
I've got to drive home

Where was it you sang?
I felt your low resonance
I felt you in the blood pumped
through my lungs
at one time
your breathiness
absorbed in my dreams
watching me sleep
Today, I'm gone

Today I am completely ******* gone--
I got this
