Death Of A Poet

Something happening to my brain,
feeling numb, feeling pain.
Blood dripping from nose and eyes,
feels like a blood baptize.
Coughing blood through the mouth,
maybe I'm on that highway going south.
Falling to the ground,
head spinning round.
Blood pouring out my ears,
it's time to face my fears.
Immortality has escaped my soul,
i can picture my six foot hole.
in and out a state of consciousness,
I was just another victim that's anonymous.
Nothing can save me now,
no encore, no final bow.
I'm too young to die,
blood is all I ever cry.
No tunnel, no light,
my body isn't taking flight.
Just laying in the dark,
above my head is a question mark.
Not the way I wanted to go,
so painful, so **** slow.
Wanted to die in my sleep,
counting some innocent sheep.
I guess it was just my turn,
my body, I want to burn.
Ashes spread across the land,
while millions of people salute and stand.
Remembering the good old times,
a brain tumor was my ultimate demise.
It happened so very fast,
all I can see is my darkened past.
Drug Addict

I drink beer, I drink liquor,
doing shots makes it quicker.
I smoke a bowl, I smoke a joint,
is there a problem, get to the point.
I take acid, I like trip,
I love the trail of a moving whip.
I like ****** sugar, I snort coke,
no wonder, I'm so **** broke.
I pop pills for stress, some for pain,
you'll never hear me complain.
I shoot ******, then I dose off,
my life is just a total loss.
I make and smoke ****,
hoping it takes my last breath.
Special K is my favorite tranquilizer,
I use it as a drug appetizer.
I smoke crack, don't ask why,
don't knock it, til you try.
Ecstasy makes me feel so good,
it always puts me in a special mood.
I sniff gas, I sniff glue,
then I ask, who are you.
Sometimes I smoke hash,
I live a life of white trash.
Morphine can't be beat,
my brain has suffered a defeat.
I even take ****** and steroids,
***** big, ***** small and I'm paranoid.
Been to counselling, been to rehab,
last time I went, I ended up with *****.
Now finally, I'm clean and sober,
been that way since mid October.
I admit drugs are more fun,
but in the end, God finally won.

one year ago, today
i was unable to put
my feet on solid ground
for awhile
i used the bodies of those
i called lovers
to hold me up
but that day
late that friday night
my last hold slipped away,
and i realized
that there was never anything solid
to begin with
so i drank
indulged on ***** and blood
laid down for eternal sleep
but instead was awoken,
minutes from oblivion

you asked me
why you should believe
that i won't do it again;
i said that i learned something
about myself that night:
i will take the pain over oblivion
any day
Another finger tip,
another fine gentle brush of your skin.
Like a canvas you have painted this master piece.
Yet the pieces are made of me.
As the water colors start to run,
So do my emotions.
Or what is left of them.
I've really ****** up.
I've really ****** up.
I've really ****** up.
And now,
the canvas is complete.
First love,
gone.
First ****,
gone.
First soul mate,
gone.
I'm in pieces,
and soon I will be gone.
when you're in love with a poet
be wary
you will become either the
world
or a
warning
i was so distracted
by everything in front of me
that i didn't notice
you sneaking behind me
and engraving yourself
into my bones
now
i don't have a choice
you are in my
veins
Well crap, game is over and they beat us.
I write these words with sadness as Michigan State wins the game fair and square, no tricks, no bad calls just man on man beat us.

My Team, My Dream, My Buckeyes

The Ohio State Buckeyes
Each year their games I view
My team still undefeated
And ranked at number two

We now must play a team up north
But not the maize and blue
We beat that rival of our school
Now we'll beat the green ones too

With the game this week that we must play
We know one team must fall
With Buckeye Pride and heads held high
We will sing our victory song

The champion who will win this game
Will wear the Big Ten crown
They will give to them a trophy
And a parade for all in town

Then one more game that we must play
To be the number one of all
As college football champions
We will raise that Chrystal Ball


Go Bucks.... O. H. _

Yes I know this poem is very regional and it more then likely will not get a bunch of hits. Still this one is for me.  I am obviously from Ohio and Obviously a fan of The Ohio State Buckeyes. The victory over Michigan was fantastic and hopefully we can defeat a strong Michigan State team as well. If we win this weeks game we will play for the national championship and the crystal ball trophy. Such a great year for Buckeye Football. Go Bucks.
i watched a movie last night
coincidentally,
i was confused over you
but i can point fingers
all day long
and say that your
indifference and silence
cause our problems
but i know that it's difficult
to deal with me, too
this is how i realized
that i'm not ready
to give up
because i still remember
the first time i talked to you
and i thought
"i'm going to fall in love with him"
and if my entire being was erased,
and i was born again
i would choose you—
and all your *******—
all over again
I have a crush on you
Sadly
I am only a bug
And you are a garden

I have a crush on you
Sadly
I am only the moon
And you are the milky way

I have a crush on you
Sadly
I am only a human
And you are a skyscraper

You have crushed me
Sadly
For I am only a bug
And you are a garden
i got this idea from a post i saw on tumblr so i decided to make a poem of it
