Stand up for what?
To collapse back down
my ankles turn to water
whenever you're around
I can't stand up
when i don't know what i stand for
like my brain is in the clouds
but my heart is on the **** floor
or a platform
my face is in a sandstorm
and i can't form words
with my lips between your teeth
our bodies now declare war
and my throat begets a siren
that your backbones can't ignore
your shoulders hold me down
while i beg for
just
a
little
bit
more
I've mapped this house out for months now;
praying you'll kiss me against every joist holding                (in & exhale)
I'll breathe out
all the lives I have lived without this
my chest will beat the tale of you over and over to my ribs & my legs will never stand again without aching

Spending my time like pennies, *waiting
I feel like a MIST
MISSED by the gently kissed
not seen by the loving EYE
I blow away and i drift

it's hard to find PEACE
PIECE by piece, I fall apart
I SOAR to release
every SORE on my heart

I SEE the SEA
there's comfort in my fall
as I SINK in SYNC
I am a part of it all
Hear the boat CREAK in the CREEK
where the water flow was WEAK for a WEEK
we couldn't set SAIL for the SALE
I might look PALE because I needed a PAIL

see, my WHOLE boat is full of HOLES
when it SEES the SEAS it always rolls
I can see THEIR boats over THERE
I just stand on the STAIR and STARE

I wish TO be out there sailing TOO
there's something DUE that I must DO
I don't KNOW how to say NO
never say NOT and let the KNOT go
I tried to make some sense. LOL
I did my best to make you smile
I even put my heart on the line
I was willing to go the mile
I never mentioned the scars of mine

now I know, it's all about you
my feelings don't exist
even though my heart is true
the blood I give is always missed
they are only strong in groups
they follow rules made by their leaders
it's one for all, or attack that one
they can be the most brutal creatures

they use bullets instead of thoughts
shoot now and ask questions later
it's all for none, except the strong
they have such a violent nature
The concept is that a single alien from another planet has landed on earth, just to observe and journal his experience here.
This is the next to last one I will post in this series.  I think you can see where it's headed. I plan on restarting the series, with more of a storyline. Like my facebook page please... Www.facebook.com/Garyspoetrypage
string along, string along
pull the twine you have me on
use my heart as your pawn
dragging me right into your con

string along, string along
play me like an old sweet song
string is weak, I am strong
I break away and now I'm gone
With so much letters written
And not a word is made
With so much hate I'm aching
Best plan she ever laid
The lies as she cheat is growing
My heart is better off dead
But I kept on keeping me going
Till the end, waited for the time she said
'Sorry we can't be together anymore...I love
someone else and you started to become a bore'
That night is the night where I lost control
I went out on a rampage shutting down all doors
I thought about losing her so many times before
But it really weren't that easy, specially her acted like a *****
The day came where she came back begging
With open arms and a tight hug, I'm grinning
What's in my mind is as sick attempt of ******
Only the sufffering is one can bear forever
3 years of silence a masquerade and a dance
Whispering past echoes saying'this is your chance'
Of what to do with my caged wrath?If she is so warm lying on my arms
I am waiting and hating her loving and keeping her off harm
Only to ripen the revenge sweet tasty and profound
And so I'm still waiting..Kissing her forehead and let her sleep without a sound..
We are young and so wrong
But we are done and moving along
The order, we suffer
They took as in for ******
We are lost and broken
But it made us strong, awoken
Our father, we suffer
You left us sleeping in the gutter
We are old and the lonely
But we are holding so much memory
The gallows, we suffer
Choking hanging ropes getting tighter
Now we are just dust and ashes
Scattered through the wind in masses
The freedom, no more to suffer
Forever we'll journey on as a drifter
When you are not around, I'll look for you
And when you are found I'll snuggle close to you
I'll peck your pouting lips
I'll hold you tight like this
I'll carry you around my back
When your feet's hurting bad
When you are feeling sick, I will tend to you
And when you're feeling cold, I'll be the blanket just for you
I'll bring you water to obey your thirst
I'll be the best among the rest
I'll be the fill when you're feeling lack
Turn your frown around when you're feeling sad
