Alcohol

Snow Feb 2015

Alcohol

Running outside under a quiet moon,
Moments stolen in a crowded room.

Gentle curves over table edges,
Absolut-ly visual perfection.

You long for a touch more intoxicating than everclear,
Because all you want is whoever is near.

Ghost

Snow Feb 2015

Ghost

I could be a ghost,
but then they'd never see
I could be so much greater
than a ghost could ever be

Sometimes I wish
you'd hold my hand
but I'd never let it go
So please just stand by me,
until it starts to snow

Then I can be the one
walking strongly on my own
who takes upon myself the world
and makes my presence known

But for now I'll be a ghost,
perhaps it's meant to be,
until we stand upon the hill
and set our ambitions free

Nothing

Snow Jul 2014

Nothing

You aren't the moon to my sun
Nor the sun to my moon
But you are human to me
And I am human to you
Neither of us are what we seem
But we are real beyond a dream.
In darkness swells the great recess
Of mind and thoughts thought in excess
One even, both odd and sometimes askew
Being everything and nothing is all we can do.
Do not fret over lack of rest
Or else you might miss what is truly best
For you, for him, and even her
Sometimes a *** is best left unstirred
But lest our chase is ever forgot
We will always remember what our hearts once sought.

Moonlight and Daisies

Snow Jan 2013

Moonlight and Daisies

You remind me of moonlight and daisies.
The warmth of your smile
and the kindness of your heart
the ways you love music
and the way you appreciate art

You remind me of moonlight and daisies.
The shine of your eyes
and the sturdiness of your hands
The brightness in your voice
and how tall you always stand

You remind me of moonlight and daisies
The way you greet me each day
with your hand on my shoulder
such a warm and wondrous embrace
I’ll be alright as it gets colder
We’ll be alright as we grow older.

Lyric Poem

Snow Aug 2011

Lyric Poem

You give me your hand, we start to dance,
for the first time in years I think I have a chance.
I love you more than ever now,
but could you love me somehow?

Just a kiss on my lips in the moonlight,
to tell me I'm lucky in love with my best friend tonight.
I'm tired of all these lonely lullabies,
always bringing tears to my eyes.

You pull me close, I feel your heart,
beating with mine like they could never tear us apart.
I love you more than anything,
but could I be your everything?

Just a kiss on my lips in the moonlight,
to tell me I'm lucky in love with my best friend tonight.
I'm tired of all these lonely lullabies,
always bringing tears to my eyes.

You Called Me Sweetheart

Snow Jul 2011

You Called Me Sweetheart

You think I'm important and kind, incredibly skilled and sweet.

You were the first to say that everything I am is amazing.

You don't think I'm weird, just seriously different.

You take me for who I am without complain.

You encourage me to be me and nothing else.

You hold me up high, and you make me feel like a princess.

You understand me and my quirky ways.

You say you'd die before you'd ever leave my side.

When I say I love you more than you love me, you say it's not possible.

You called me sweetheart.

I Wasn't Made For Your Goodbye

Snow Jul 2011

I Wasn't Made For Your Goodbye

The blood on my nails is from,
trying to take back my heart.
I tried to pry it from your hands,
but ended up tearing it apart.
The bruises on my arms are from,
just trying to survive.
But now that I have a life,
doesn't mean I feel anymore alive.

Was I just made so you could say goodbye?
It isn't fair. I deserve a love that doesn't lie.
Well hello!
I'm the one walking beside you,
it's not just your own shadow.
There is more to me than you can see,
so why can't you just stay with me?

The scars on my legs are from,
trying to walk through life,
But the longer that I can't find love,
the more things end in strife.
The tears that run down my cheeks,
are from being blinded by the light,
that shown when you walked in,
and I thought you were my armored knight.

But was I just made so you could say goodbye?
It isn't fair. I deserve a love that doesn't lie.
Well hello!
I'm the one walking beside you,
it's not just your own shadow.
There is more to me than you can see,
so why can't you just stay with me?
I wasn't made for your goodbye.

Questions Answered.

Snow Jul 2011

Questions Answered.

What are you when you've got nothing?
Who are you when you've got no one?
Where do you stand when you're standing alone?
Where do you go when you've got no place to call home?

Well, you're only human and I can't blame you for that.
And you've always got me, and that's a fact.
I'll stand by you even if you're standing alone.
And you'll always have my heart to call your home.

Nature Beat

Snow Jul 2011

Nature Beat

I like to walk to a different beat,
So I can feel the earth beneath my feet.

Stay a while and smell the flowers,
Waltz my way through an april shower.

I like to run with a different stride,
So I can feel the sand inching out with the tide.

Hear the wind over distant lands,
Listen for nature's calls as I lay in the sand.

I Miss You More

Snow Apr 2011

I Miss You More

I miss you more than the stars during the day,
I miss you and I wish you never went away.
I miss you more than the moonlight.
I miss you more each day, each night.

I miss you so much, I am nothing but sad.
I miss you more than the life I had.
I miss you more than words can say,
I miss you more each night, each day.

Dark of the Night

Snow Apr 2011

Dark of the Night

The tree's dark limbs twist
in waves of cool, damp, mist,
and beckon you through the dark.

No clear path lies ahead,
guided by only the things you dread,
walk on, into the dark.

Only a silent call,
the sound of the fall,
to greet you in the dark.

See the dark of the night,
in all it's great light,
and cherish its mystery.

A Friend Most Dear

Snow Apr 2011

A Friend Most Dear

Friends can come in the strangest packages,
All torn up and scratched and sealed with red tape.
As his friend, my hugs are his bandages,
I’ll teach him to fly and sew his new cape.

Everyone must find their joy and their peace,
And now that we’ve met, we are more than fine.
T’is he who’s my joy and my missing piece.
May he never leave, this true friend of mine.

He will always have a place in my heart,
Let it be his home, always free from pain.
And even for long times when we’re apart,
I know that soon enough we’ll meet again.

He is there for me, all brave and tough.
I lean on him when I’m Not Strong Enough.

Almost a Shakespearean Sonnet. I have the main structure down but the word flow isn't quite what I'd like for an iambic pentameter. Anywho, I needed a sonnet for school and this is what I came up with. The topic means a lot to me right now so it'll be nice to get some credit for my expression of friendship.

Alas, Have No Fear, I Will Still Be Kind

Snow Apr 2011

Alas, Have No Fear, I Will Still Be Kind

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

I will try to stand tall and see,
not judge before knowing,
and listen to everything you say.
Tell me everything that you want to be,
and I'll help you make it there.
But I can't leave other's on the way.

Even as my heart begins to swell,
from all the pressure building,
We'll keep marching onward and out.
I can almost see the light and see it well,
just a little farther yet.
We'll make it through without a doubt.

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

Forgive or Forget

Snow Apr 2011

Forgive or Forget

You knoW I wear my heart on my sleeve,
but could you ever make it up to me?
For stealing it away, knowing It was my only vice,
and leaving me with a hole as cold and dark as ice.

But inside I want to forgive you,
Because the probLem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I want to forget you.
Because the scars are stilL from what You do.

Can we just sit here in silent nOthing.
Let my pUlse slow to a stop.
From you I don't want anything,
You took my hEart then let it drop.

But inside I want to fogiVe you,
BEcause the problem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I wish I had foRsaken you,
Because the scars are still from what you do.

Can we just lay here in the light,
Let my eyes adjust to the fire.
Your Soul is burning through my night,
though you are not my hEarts desirE.

So inside I want to forgive you,
because the problem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I wish I could forget you,
because all these scars you see,
are what you did to me.

This Is

This Is

Ugly* as ashfall,
Harsh as a white wall,
Cold as the dark night,
Sad as a fading light,
Pretty, but it all depends,
Kind as an old friend,
Warm as a new heart,
Happy as a fresh start,
**Love

You're Getting Low

Snow Feb 2011

You're Getting Low

You were always on top, you always knew what to do.
Until your brain seemed to stop, and all the pressure’s on you.
Life spins in circles, you’re out of control.
All the wasted time is taking its toll.

You don’t see it coming until it hits you head on,
Stressing all night until the break of dawn.
You feel so ashamed, you can’t let it go.
There are so many things you feel you should know.

You’re life is getting low again, darker days are coming.
But all you hear in your head is the constant noise and drumming.
You never even knew you had gotten so high,
until your beautiful life decides to say good bye.

You feel like a failure, but nobody knows.
Some things in life you simply refuse show.
Your life is falling apart, the outside is only a charade,
the endless deterioration is always raining on your parade.

You can’t even concentrate, pointless are the attempts,
When you get this way, all you feel is self-contempt.
You’ve got so many problems, its too hard to be tough.
Once the strongest, you’re not even close to strong enough.

Don't Ask, Just Know

Snow Dec 2010

Don't Ask, Just Know

Some say I've got a dark past,
but boy you haven't got a clue.
'Cause yours is tarnished by the pain
that's caused by loving you.

Well tonight I know,
I've let you go.
Don't **** me anymore,
I'm already low.
Don't ask what I mean,
just know.

Its been a difficult road just getting to here.
I've loved and I've lost what I wanted to hold near.
You saved me but I was foolish, I've got a silly little heart.
But at least I knew I had to let you go right from the start.

Well tonight I know,
I've let you go.
Don't **** me anymore,
I'm already low.
Don't ask what I mean,
*just know.

Confuzzled Poetry

Snow Dec 2010

Confuzzled Poetry

Poetry can often gravely confuse,
When it's heavy and deep.
Filled with knowledge I cannot use.

A lot of us hide,
behind our own words.
Like poetry is a language
in a whole new world.

But I do not want to hide,
I shall not invert.
If I have something to say,
why hide it with fancy words?

True expression comes when people understand,
so those too-big words must lay out of my hands.

I'll Hold My Head High

Snow Dec 2010

I'll Hold My Head High

Never had a boyfriend,
Never had my first kiss.
I have this heart to mend,
from all the chances I've miss'd.
But I'll hold my head high,
I'll put on a smile,
but only because I'll be
with you for a while.

Dear Friend,

Snow Dec 2010

Dear Friend,

I want you to be happy, even though its hard.
I've wasted my chance, I played my last card.
Now its all out of my hands, and a friend is all I can be,
but that's alright because you're still spending time with me.

If I was a butterfly, my heart could fly away.
Over farms and cities, I wouldn't care what you say.
But I'm not, and thats okay. I want you in my life.
Even through the pain, I won't take this in strife.

I never want to upset you, or make you feel sad.
I want to help you stand tall when times are bad.
I want to be there for you, it's all I know how to do,
Even if it seems there's always more that I can do.

We are beautiful and we are free,
To be the people we want to be.
I'll always be here for you, I'll watch you grow.
I won't hold you back ,I've let you go.

Take These Words

Snow Dec 2010

Take These Words

Arm in arm we were inseperable.
Hand in hand, we are capable
of everything.
Looking for a fight
or laying under the stars
Wherever you go,
I never want to be far.

For once in my life
I don't have to lead,
I've found my knight
and his noble steed
But for now I have to walk the line
between knowing you're hers
and wishing you were mine.

Bulletproof

Snow Dec 2010

Bulletproof

**** boy, look at me now.
I'm all pretty and you look like a cow.
You've got "friends", but I've got more.
I've got a heart when you have no soul.
I'm not stupid, in fact I'm smarter than you,
because I don't make people feel bad,
when they're already blue.
**** boy, look at me now.
I'm bulletproof and
you
can't
bring
me
down.

My Love Will Last

Snow Dec 2010

My Love Will Last

Friend or foe, my heart is yours,
even when we're all feeling low.
Tomorrow a new sun will rise,
to dry the tears from our eyes.
Love is often a backwards game,
because love is the emotion that can't be tame.
Snow, shine, or any weather,
you can stand by me and know we'll always be together.

The Life of an Orchestra

Snow Dec 2010

The Life of an Orchestra

A breath is given,
the others take.
The swells grow more and more.

A bird singing in the tree.
The rushing roar of the sea.
A sunrise breaking through,
A twinkle on the mountain dew.
All enclosed in a melody,
Notes transfered from you to me.

An angel's cry,
a lamentable sigh,
Even the heavens take a breath.

The raging rapids over the rocks,
The piercing love that breaks all locks.
Running from an enemy, running far.
Rising from the earth into the stars.
All enveloped in an epic song,
The beautiful melodies are never too long.

All Hallow's Eve

Snow Dec 2010

All Hallow's Eve

A fading light,
A heroic night,
to come.
To live.
To dance.
To move along.

Shadows briskly walking
In the dark.
We scheme and plan,
to leave our mark.

Every trick is a treat.
And every scream, we meet,
A new ghost, goblin,
and other fools.

Who needs candy
when I know you'll never leave?
My parter in crime,
on All Hallow's Eve.

Cookie

Snow Dec 2010

Cookie

Darling when is this cookie going to crumble?
I'm starting to loose balance,
It won't be long before I stumble.
I can't even sleep at night,
knowing I never had a chance
to even try to put up a fight.
I thought you could be my superman.
You've already helped me take a stand,
against all the false love,
against all the false hope in my life.
Darling, please don't let this end in strife.

— The End —
