John
It seems it's always rainin'
But the Suns out today
And I ain't complainin'
Today I just wanna play

So sit right down next to me
As I press down on the gas pedal
The flowers in your hair keep blowing
The more I push the pedal to the metal
Your smile just makes everything better
And I smile when you smile
Never really was the biggest go-getter
But, babe, you put me in overdrive
Wanna go to the creek at the top of the hill
Step to the edge, hold my nose and dive

The words that keep spilling from your mouth
Like milk on the kitchen floor
No matter how mad, no matter how happy
I just keep on wanting more (and more)
I mean, I know you've got a boy
Waiting for you at home
I'm just like a ******* toy (to you)
And I really don't mind
I don't at all, really I couldn't care less
Because even if you're not mine
I still feel like the one who's blessed
But when the time comes just gimme a sign
Because when you and him are over
I'll be there, I'll be there with open arms

Oh, babe, this is all for a reason
I can go, I can so go
With you it's so pleasin'
And if you want more just let me know
I'm just overflowing with ways
To talk, to be, to stand next to you
I'm probably a little selfish
But it seems I'm stuck like glue
And I can't help these feelings
You just **** me with those big eyes
Your soft hands and milk and roses skin
I just wish, I just hope, I just wait
For the best to begin

Confession time,
Where's my priest?
When I was little I had it all planned out.
"In the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit, Amen.
It has been six months since my last confession and these are my sins."
I fought with my family.
I swore.
And I lied.
That is what I said for seven years.
I loved to throw a wrench in the machine.
When I was fourteen I added in a little tid bit to my routine.
"I am gay".
It was the longest pause I had ever heard.
And then it went completely ignored.
How rude of me to try and provoke you, father.
As the princess reached the clearing
she was stopped by a command
that did say
I am the knight of Day
who goes this way.

Princess Darling she did say
please let me go on my way
and what a strange name for a knight any way.

W   H   A   T  !    T   H  E      KNIGHT DID SAY?

well the princess went onto say
how can you be the the knight of Day
for you must be the knight of night

W   H   A   T  !    T   H  E      KNIGHT DID SAY!

What makes you think that?

the princess did blush and say well your armour is black as night
and if it was day your armour would be made of  G  O  L  D.

A T   T H A T  THE KNIGHT       O    F       D    A     Y      
G O T  S U C K E D into his own head   :-)

NEVER MORE to be so BOLD.
Think this would make a great rock song, and would be able to write more, maybe about the gilt the princess did feel about, the knight, that she did slay. **( shine on my silver diamond)**.   he he he !

Should have listened to my teacher more in the sixty's.  but still have love and peace for you all.

My skin from
Arrival gifted through DNA donors
Don't hate
I want to be haunted by you.

Want you to...

Sit down beside me, 'til I feel your presence in the air.
Watch me remember you, So you can see I still care.
Caress me in passing, leaving chills on my spine.
Visit my dreams, make me believe that you're still mine.

     Haunt me daily, and keep this loneliness at bay.
     Haunt me nightly, until my desire goes away.

I want to be haunted by you, so I can ignore the pain
Haunt me please, so I can pretend that nothing has changed.

Pieces of you linger
  In my mind, causing random smiles and outbursts of laughter,
   But sometimes I cry

Pieces of you reside
   In my heart, placing me in sentimental moods and reminiscent flight,
   But sometimes I just cry

Pieces of you remain
  In my nose, creating fragrant blissfulness
Pieces of you stay
  On my skin, triggering spontaneous quivers
Pieces of you survive
  On my tongue, causing cravings for sweet things

  But sometimes I still just cry
  
Pieces of you are indelibly ingrained
   In my soul, intensely reminding me of love and love lost
   And I cry :'(

My Heart is forever in your hands
     Do with it as you please

I pray that you Love it...
                              Hold it...
And...
                                Desire it near.

I will hope it brings you Joy...
                                   Fulfillment...
And...
                                     Peace.

Should you decide to keep it
   I will rejoice everyday.

You will have made me whole.

Should you decide to return it
     I will forever cherish your touch.

A simple pleasure

     Never forgotten.

Sir B
Anything with love hurts
My friends talk
And say.
You do like me
I refuse
Thinking I understand you
better

I know that's false
No one wants to
Show their real selves
They don't believe me
I always have my true self
When talking to nearly anyone

But again
I know
You don't like me
And I suppose
Its fine
Because the sadness
Of one person
Is nothing
Considered to the
Happiness of someone else
Especially your loved ones
I guess I need to move
And get out of your way
So someone you
Believe to be worthy
Finds you.
Midnight poem... Hope you looks it. Sad like my other ones
Nothing new there... also I am not someone you'd like
On sight like a few other people
Like my friend "Jack" (He wrote the other poem)
I guess... Time for me to leave.
Gnite and sweet dreams.

Also could use a title suggestion!!!

When I'm here without you baby.
When I'm afraid of us failing & falling.
When I'm thinking about our connected fates.

But someone rushes to rescue me from myself.
It's an Angel who helps me overcome.
I think it's you baby - my Angel.
My HP Poem #394
©Atul Kaushal
A famous artist took his painting,
which commenced life as beach driftwood,
whipped it with a chain.
Made it all
chipped and nicked,
and called it, antiqued.
He liked the way it looked,
and had it put in a museum.

God looked down and thought,
"****, I do good work,
Just look at the human race!"
Not a poem, but stray dog thoughts after reading 180 new poems on HP. Originally titled, chipped and nicked.
