Pedestal
nash May 2013
i want to put you on a pedestal
shine a bright light upon you
because i know what your going through
been there my self too
you don't think your beautiful
you think you'll never amount
i want to put you on a pedestal
to show you your just brand new
your hands may tremble and you feel insecure
you don't like all eyes on you
but that's what were really here for
all eyes on you all lights aimed high
so uncover your scars and break your binding bars
you have always been on my pedestal
you just never knew
petty little poem

feel.
nash May 2013
reach into my soul
make me feel brand new
pull my heart strings
break my bones
leave me out to dry
let me blow in the wind
all i really want is just
to feel something again

graduation
nash May 2013
i graduate in a week
planning all of my party and who to invite and greet
it hit me that you are gonna be there
its been 11 years
since you passed
it just hit me
you never got to see me grow up
you never got to see me at my lowest  of lows
my highest of highs
my crys my sighs, my laughs and my ability at my terrible math
12 years of hell the worst and best 12 years old my life,
and its all just passed me by
and it
just
hit me
your not going to be there with me
the day i take my diploma and am legally considered independent
not only does this scare the hell out of me but
you wont get to see me this day walk onto that stage,
how unfair can that be?
i was just thinking about graduation and my grandpa, its kinda all over the place i know.

The earth and outer space
nash May 2013
Do you think, the earth and the outer space are lovers
She asked
Do you think even after all of the meteors that outer space hurls towards earth
They’re still lovers?
Do you think they still enjoy each others company
Even though they're killing each other?
When all is said and done, the earth and outer space
Do not care what anyone says at the end of the day they love each other
They let their stars shine rather than their black holes show through
Are we, like the earth and outer space?
Although we scream and fight and throw awful words at each other
Are we still lovers?
Are we as stronger as two opposites?
Because no matter how much space we may endure my magnetic force
Always brings you closer…
So I ask are we like the earth and outer space, or are we a lost cause, an ending race?

Within my Heart
nash May 2013
I saw him that day  lie in the dirt
i could
see his face struck with hurt
come back to this earth!
cold as ice they put him in the ground
i wait and just listen for the sound
there was no rhythm
was no beating
just an assurance
this really means your leaving
this poem has traveled with me since i was about 14 years old about my grandfather.

Just for a Day
nash May 2013
If I was a bird
Just for one day, I’d have to learn how to fly
And I take off, far away
I would keep flying, until my arms changed from wings to arms
Until I was in mid air, just falling, no longer flying
Because that’s better than here
Than what I’m doing
Because ‘once I learn how to fly I’m never come down”
I’ll have to fall from the sky.

Away
nash Apr 2013
My head feels like exploding
From the aching its receiving
Everything is so ******* overwhelming
That’s just my everyday life
Growing up only gets harder from “here”
Take me somewhere no where near “here”

I Came Here to think
nash Feb 2013
I come here
To walk
But all I do is think
I come here to rejoice
But all it does is hurt
I want to be happy
But my mirror is stuck with an obscene
Image, in its path
It’s just a reflective sticker on a piece of glass
Revealing to me who I am
So the sticker is not whats obscene,
It’s my own thinking
So here’s my first step toward
Making myself happy
Revealed and open
I’m breaking those mirrors
Until I can look with joy into
One
So I came here to walk,
I ended up thinking

what happened to poetry?
nash Feb 2013
what happened to poetry?
of a mysterious nature
what happened to poetry of a joyous perception

when did our thoughts become so Disgruntled
that all we write of
is
love and hate
being one

what happened to stories,
that showed us
images in our head

wheres our modern day
Edgar Allen Poe
or
our William Shakespeare

it strikes me with grief to be a part
of the poets who play sad records
and shine no sun through my poetry

what happened to me?

Please Don't Break
nash Feb 2013
Beautiful girl
what have they done
turning the butterfly back into the caterpillar
Beautiful child
what are they doing
calling names,playing foul games

when will it stop
the hatred they sport
the rhythm of lies
they can not support

don't let them do it darling
don't budge an inch
for if they catch you breaking
receive yes of what they want

beautiful girl what have they done
beautiful child i thought you would hold up
i did not believe
they could
they would break you

beautiful girl don't you
wake from that floor!
cause' where you are now
their names will not hurt anymore

beautiful child
did no one tell you
you were, you are beautiful

The Drop
nash Feb 2013
Her heart sang for a lovely soul
like a canary search for love
someone who would make her world
and then
one day
one meet
one hello
and her heart was hooked
like bait

running with high speed
he always caught her in safe arms
but life's not That easy

out of the blue
the deep blue sky
she came running,
he let her fly
off that cliff
drifting in mid air

she still wonders if love was
ever there
now everytime she gets close to anyone
she fly's off that cliff
again,again and again

That love
nash Feb 2013
it's hard to just
stop

to just stop loving
someone
who doesn't love you back
so do not stop
keep loving
but not that someone
put that love into something, pick up
a pen
a brush
a anything
but do not let that love you have
go to waste on someone who doesn't
love
you
