In the wind
Laura Spain Jul 2011
lost in the wind
we've yet to begin
this life means nothing
yet it means everything
breezing through on a single cloud
perched  precariously on the hopes and dreams of lovers
Close your eyes when it moves to fast
sleep through when it moves to slow
Don't blink or its gone
where's your umbrella when it rains?
lost in the clouds of your broken heart
but how do u mend the ache with a tear drop?
Singing to the tune of the thunder and hail
humming alone when it dies to a single tone.
Is this what you were accustomed to?
This life is more than just a read through
Or so you thought you heard in a passing song.
Unless your just passing through this time around.
Float your cloud to mine and i'll ease your pain
sooth your hurts and mend your heart
Mother time has left you here
alone with your single tear.
Floating by on memories
lost in the wind.

The Virgin
Laura Spain May 2011
Vague notions
Sliding, soothing, softly touching
Tempting, teasing, abrupt emotions

A wide eyed woman in the distance
Left behind for the new and extreme

A trembling man behind her
Watching and hoping for the serene

Coming together, it seems
This is what they waited for
All along hoping for the passion alone

Moaning softly, exploring fingertips
Gentle trembling fingers hovering
Hesitantly, they touch

Explosions of sensations
Unexplored devotions

Quickly roving faster
A need that consumes them
A clashing of wills
No longer two, not quite alone

He whispers sweet notions
She moans her emotions
Sliding, feeling, grabbing, twisting

The blood drips between them
She trembles still
He wraps her in his whispers of forever

Vague notions no longer
Wrapped in the emotions of the other
Lost in the extreme
The serene

This is forever

A Stray
Laura Spain Nov 2010
Laughing as the dawn approached
She called to me from the shadows
“Will you follow?”
Dare I not?

I was once like them
Going on about the day
Until I ventured off the path one day
She caught me there, like a stray

She owns me now
It does not matter
She has my soul
My heart
My life
My love everlasting

Do I dare to follow her?
Do I dare defy her?
These questions I ask
Though I know not why

I’m already gone,
My mind wandering free
She has stolen me
And buried me beneath a tree

I’ll wait here forever more
For my life, my love, my heart
My soul
Gone
Forever more

When Death Comes
Laura Spain Nov 2010
Death comes calling quickly now
Running running round and round
You dare not swallow nor make a sound
But simply fall swiftly to the ground

Your bones are aching falling fast
All your thoughts trapped in the past
"You dare defy me!" he screams at last
You've left your body for the past

Death has won you now, you see
Simply 'cause you could not let it be
Soon you will swim eternally
Swiftly swiftly in his sea

Death and I
Laura Spain Nov 2010
I was conversing with Death one day
While walking on along my way
When he told me to forsake the day
And I sent him sadly on his way

He seemed aghast at what i said
And determined then to see me dead
He ran me over, Left only tread
And then pronounced my body dead

Upon my grave, he sat 'till dawn
And tried to keep the soil on
And then till eve he sat upon
My body still fresh buried on

He pulled me out late at night
Pronounced my figure a sure fright
We then began to fight
Long past the end of night

The Bottom of a Bottle
Laura Spain Oct 2010
The bottom of a bottle.
I know you well.
We've had fun, sometimes too much.

Other times we've been in trouble.
Done things I would never do.
Things I regret.

Sometimes you gave me courage.
Like when I kissed her.
We both knew it wouldn't happen sober.

Occasionally I still visit you.
Mainly when I'm feeling friendly,
Or just out on the town.

Though I'm happy to say, dear bottle,
You never could make me sway.
I always had to do it my way.

Though I see so many fall before you.
I know that I'll be strong today.
Because in the end....
You're only half a beer away.

Be Happy
Laura Spain Oct 2010
Wake up; be happy
Wake up; be happy
The sun is shining above

Wake up; be happy
Wake up; be happy
Can't you feel the love?

The sky may be cloudy,
The weather windy
But i will warm you up

Though you're tired
A little achy
I'll fix you with my love

So wake up; be happy
Wake up; and be happy
Give me all your love

Wake up; be happy
Wake up; be happy
Don't mind the clouds above

Its all in your head
This dream you were dead
I'll hold you safe and warm

Wrap your self around me
I'll make you happy
Forever and ever my love

Just wake up
A little
Wake up
Be happy
My love

I stand here waiting
Simply alone in my glory
Swaying in the breeze

As the days grow older
My heart grows colder
I tire of waiting for thee

I once was young
I once loved with a heart so pure
I once would have given you the world

Now I've been left to see
Simply standing
Hoping you'll come back to me

But few come just to see
And none of the few are ever thee

So though I've loved
And though I've cried
Now I know
That inside

I've simply died

Republicans
Laura Spain Sep 2010
Tick tock. Tick tock
The clock is never stopping
Never slowing
Never ceasing
Never moving

Drip drop. Drip drop
Blood is flowing
Tears are falling
Sweat is dripping

Its something horrible that they've done
Destroying many
Not just one

Could they not think?
Not see?
Never understand?

Sitting in a palace so grand
Watching the peons scramble about
Never even pretending to give ****

Now the successors lie to us
Try to appeal to the nothing left behind
Try to force themselves upon us

Can you not see it?
Feel it?
Know it?

Tick tock. Tick tock
Goes the last few precious minutes
Our only chances at recovery

Drip drop. Drip drop
The blood is flowing from a pointless war
Our lives swiftly following....

If you should die before I wake
I promise not the blame to take
Nor dance upon your grave
Or run about and rave

If you should die before I wake
I promise not to leave out the rake
Nor the the scratches uncovered
Or pretend that you were smothered

If you should die before I wake
I promise not to toss you to the lake
Nor leave your body in my room
Or remove evidence with the broom

If you should die before I wake
I promise not to party 'till after the wake
Nor waste your favorite alcohol
Or admit that i hate you after all

Angels
Laura Spain Sep 2010
Angels by my eyes
Surrounding me
They stay by my side
Waiting for my last breath

Angels whispering in my ears
Hidden in the corner of my mind
Praying for me
My dark angels of death

Angels flying over me
Stretching their black wings
Licking their white fangs
Hoping for my soul

Angels' dark eyes staring
Their darkness overwhelming
Angels feeding on my life
They have stolen my soul

Angels smiling and happy
Soaring away from my coffin
I am one of them
Waiting for another's last breath of life

My Girl
Laura Spain Sep 2010
"You don't need a soul"
She says to me, so sweetly
"Its only in your way"
She whispers, oh so neatly

My brain develops droughts
As I go about my day
These dark and deadly thoughts
They leave me feeling gray

But they way she calls my name
At night when I'm in the grave
Leaves me feeling whole
But never feeling sane

And though she comes to me at night
I often feel her presence in the light
Will she come to me again?
Or will she leave me to my plight?

A Dance
Laura Spain Sep 2010
faster, faster, faster
moving, roving, spinning,
dancing, swaying, flowing,
never stopping, never slowing

stepping this way
stepping that way
always careful,
never ceasing

This dance that we do
Every time we're near
After every breath
every sigh
every laugh
every touch

can you feel it?
our hearts beat louder
our breaths come harder
our bodys move faster
our hands rove slower

touching, feeling, caressing
kissing, licking, nipping
is it everything you wanted?
is it everything you hoped?

moaning louder now
desperate anticipation
arching, screaming, biting
slamming, squirming, begging

exploding into oblivion
Every sense is gone
numbness
relaxing
slowing

Hold me tighter
make the moment last
caress me
touch me
love me

dancing, twirling, twisting
slower now
our steps fading
our moves stopping
is our dance over?

do you care to dance again?
its only a little ****** :)- From The Mind of a Me

Like Sheep
Laura Spain Sep 2010
Tossing and turning
Spinning and yearning
Flowing and fusing
Loving and leaving

Does this feel?
Does that hurt?
Does it flow?
Is it dirt?

We're following along like lost little sheep
We don't stop and think
We're so obsessed with being different
We end up all the same

Spending a lifetime playing follow the leader
Calling the ones who branch off a cheater

Like small children on the playground
Playing games with useless rules
"Tag your dead!"
Is all I hear
All I feel
All I see

But I try to change it
To feel it
To steal my own way along the road

I'll take the long way if I can make it my own
I'll see you at the end with a smile on my face
While you wash the blood off of yours

Even if its harder or wrong
At least I can always say I did it on my own...
