take away the war let us live in peace
make the world a happy place let the killing cease
let us love again and we can live as one
together hand in hand we can make our lives go on
cast the war aside and put it in the past
let us live in harmony and live in peace at last

Dont let a heart like yours be enclosed by walls,
because every man who climbs eventually falls
The insecurities of yours shouldnt last,
you cant always live in that past
cause im different i dont aim to climb
I aim to steal your heart... is that a crime?
but dont worry ill keep it safe..
i know of a very secret place
a place so exculsive
and just a little elusive
for this place is my heart
and you robbed me of it... from the start

I do not feel you in my heart-
that which drums on endlessly
and dull, devoid of most art,
struggling in spineless pulse
to find hemo-globe and not a hearse.

Sometimes I do not even feel my chest
hurtling blood into my veins
though I'm sure it rushes, while I rest,
at near hundred miles a minute-

No, i do not feel you pound in my heart.
I only feel you in my lungs,
breathing steadily through my nose
or heavy by my tongue-
you rush through my neck,
you rise and fall in all my bronchi--

and soft you travel in my body.

I hate you
but you love me
and all you wanna do
is please me.

Your shaking up my head
twisting my thoughts
into tiny pieces
that can't be read.

"But i love you baby"
is all you say
Just go with it
it'll all be okay.

We waste time
like a broken clock
Tick...tock.

And when the time comes
I won't be there
Cause i've been lying too...
but you were always too drunk
to even care.

Our lies that were exchanged
never meant a thing
Especially when i used to say
"of course IM in Love with You darlING"
and you're my everything.

Now I lay me down  to sleep
For a wishful peaceful dream
Of you and me
To capture a vision what it would mean
Having you lay next to me
Warmth of your body
Close to mine
Holding me so....heavenly divine
I feel your breath upon my neck
Something stirring inside.... oh what the heck
oooh, now I know this is just
Ah.... dream

Just a dream

Acting in fright

Wishing one day

It will be alright

Hoping it’s all just a dream

Open and close my eyes

Is there little more than

Mistakes and fights?

Is this because of where I come from?

Who am I?

The mirror doesn’t lie

Just a sad excuse

For the wannabe daughter

Trapped inside

Slowly dying

Why can’t I just be somebody?

Two bodies,
Beneath a waterfall.
Drenched,
Dripping,
The water pours down in a torrent,
Flowing,
Splashing,
Upon our bodies.
Wet hair streaming,
Drifting,
Like sea ****,
Like watercress,
Mingling,
Blonde and brown.
The water upon our heads,
Roaring,
Laughing,
Our laughter mingles,
With the laughter of the water,
Three voices.
Hers like bells,
Ringing,
Resonating,
Echoing,
Carrying,
Light,
Metallic,
J­oyful.
Mine almost silent,
Ghostly,
Breathless,
Pure.
The water’s loader,
Overpowering,
Loader than load,
White noise,
But loader,
Like a storm,
Deep,
A pounding in my ear.
I run my hands,
Over his body,
Under the water.
Smooth,
Silky,
Wet.
He clings to me,
Holding me,
Trying not to be washed away,
Like our laughter,
Lost in the torrent,
The water,
Ever flowing,
Away.

Imagine yourself holding a gun,
Pointed to a love one.

Not on a family but a friend,
Someone you knew way back when.

Now Imagine you pulled the trigger,
That bullet made you a killer.

We get so attached
not only to ourselves
but the people
that surround us.

The time that we spend together
just can't be captured into a photograph
All the memories that we remember
won't last forever.

At some point in our lives
we have to let go
Just let the person that you love the most
slip right through your fingers
only to turn into a ghost.

What was your perfect future
is now a dark past
you never know
when it could be the last.

Whether it's a last kiss
or a last goodbye
forever and always
will you be dearly missed.

Take chances while you have them
don't let them slip away
Speak the words that you desire
'cause it'll be the last words
that I'll hear you say.

So tired of the back and fourth
To many thoughts I need to sort.
I stray here wandering lost.
My heart won't let go no matter what the cost.
I love your presence.
Hate your lies.
This is the last time.
Last chance.
Prove my doubts are truly taking a wrong glance.
I won't let you play me for a fool.
I no longer can stand being so confused.
Be real.
Be you.
But at the end of the day don't let me say we are through.

Laugh, and your day will be brighter,
laugh, and your burden will be lighter.

Laugh, and make it contagious,
laugh, and become courageous.

Laugh, and the pain becomes bearable,
laugh, and anything is wearable.

Laugh, deep down from your belly,
laugh, till your legs turn to jelly.

Laugh, and tell something funny,
laugh, and don't worry about money.

Laugh, and create joy around you,
laugh, and touch if only a few.

Laugh, and create an instant bond,
laugh, and even pygmies will respond.

Laugh, and if you don't remember how,
let me know and I will teach you now.

Laugh, and if you need some inspiration,
laugh, and try anti-frustration.

Therapy is for the weak
Though it is something we all seek
For our voice is to be heard
Problems to be consoled
Sometimes an ear is the best thing
Clears up the teary eyes
Whips away the saddening cries
You can’t always hold it in
Doing that just doesn’t make you win
Go out on a limb
Let your problems be heard
So we all don’t get to be absurd

When lies make it better
but make it burn worse

when friendship denies you
true comfort and safe

Where trust is planted
doesn't always make the flower grow

compassion and belief
shrink and die beneath the snow

defeat controls you
and that final feeling of loss

the dryness of feelings
too dry for tears

heaviness of heart
ache in mind

what would you do?
when you loose your step?

Lies.
A word, maybe two
A slip of the tongue
To save your skin
These words
Once found untrue
Can slice through a person's heart.
These lies ,
Once people find that you were telling a lie,
It affects both.
It stabs the person you lied to in the heart
And you, in the back.

Life is really such a strange place
You have different issuses and problems
You don't know how to face

People tell you "take one problem at a time"
By then, you've lost your marbles and your **** mind

One minute your learning to talk
The next your learning to walk
Just when you think you've mastered all the task
Life turns around and kicks you right in the ***

It's really a strange life we all try to lead
But somehow, it's really a life we all seem to need.

A pair of converse
Simple enough
Ratty and torn
Lying on the ground
Missing half of a shoelace
Holes near the toe

In some eyes tattered and trash
To others it is a statement of love,
But also caution
A step into the highly guarded soul

White dotted lace lines
Swerve and curl along the sides
As if they were the life lines of a palm
With each turn bringing one closer to its memories and tales

If only our shoes could talk...what would they say?

Listen closely

I shall long for you
As my lungs long to breathe
Without thought
Without conscious effort
And I shall long for you
As ocean waves long to crash upon shore
In and out the tide goes
Yet constant are the waves
As is my love for you
You that I hold so dearly
You that dream of
You that I love

What is love without affection?
Is it still love?
Or a similar feeling misleading the needy in the wrong direction. .
A common disease proclaimed infectious.
If so, let me know cause my heart needs a contraceptive.
What is love without affection?
Because if you love me then what's to question?

love it is a nature and it lies within
when you meet that special one your love it will begin
you will feel emotions and a beating in your heart
to let you know that love is just about to start
its such a lovely feeling and there to let you know
something that you feel when love begins to grow.

The melody of your voice moves me

When I’m with you I feel like I’m in a movie

You’re my poetry in motion my second chance

You’re my standing ovation the center of my plans



I believe in interest at first sight love

At first glance

I wanna make love to you boy I’m not

Talking about getting in your pants

The thought of sharing your beauty with the world is so exciting

I wanna show you a relationship with more passion and less fighting

And

When we look in each others eyes

We see no lies just euphoria that makes us high

you have been hurt and so have I



Anybody on the outside looking in

wouldn't understand what this is about

But I don’t have a doubt

Yea this is real

It happened so fast but still

I feel

The anticipation of my heart getting to know you better

And us being together

yes it’s too soon

To say forever

But I won’t be too quick to say never



My past life I would let it go for you

If you don’t know anything else know

I’m true



Cause the melody of your voice moves me

I would lose my sane before I let

You lose me

God put me in your path for a reason

I wanna be in your life longer than a season



Your my melody

You sound so good every time

Let me be yours and you can

Be mine

I can be your lyrics and I can

Be your rhyme

I have loved the world countless times
I've fallen for the same sun
Each day that it rises again.
I can't help but see the potential
In anything that could posses it.
And I love the feeling of loving.
Of holding the warmth of someone else
inside your soul.
Like a cozy blanket
And a warm mug of comfort

I've taken a lot of happiness
And broken it into a struggle
only because I refused to believe
that happiness wasn't there.
Or, at least not for me.

So now I've lost the ability
To trust myself
I can't trust myself to feel genuinely
When I have spent my life convincing myself to feel
Potentially genuine feelings.

I'm hoping this time it's different
Than all of the times before
When it was different.
I'll finally use that memory of mine
To tell me what my future holds
So that I can avoid it at all costs.
But I won't avoid you.
I trust you to force me
Into a genuine happiness

I know the difference between need and want
And you're the strangest mixture.

I don't know anymore if I'm real
If this is real
I don't know if my memories are real
either, really.

So let's hope.
Let's hope I'm really me
and you're really you
and we really do mingle
like the gold and pink
of the setting sun
So beautifully
Because you really are
a wonder.
And I really am hoping.

You say the sun shines just for me
But the moon with its majestic glow—  
It lingers through the starless nights
and patiently awaits the morning,
bringing peace among all who meets it,
Just for you.

You aren't another mug of comfort
and a cozy blanket—
You're a home.
You're a fitting piece to massive complication
You are the sigh of contentment.

And this time,
This time,
I've been falling for the moon
each night it rises again.

The Movement of our legs

one, lift, two, lift.

Such complications in a simple step
Naturality known since our first baby steps,

one, lift, two, lift.

Once the movement becomes right
walking becomes so much more

one, lift, two, lift.

It's a time to think,
to talk
to love the fall

What if we decided to walk?
Slow down the world.
Slow down ourselves.

Some people can't do it because
they are out of shape,
or have no time,
but that's not why.

Some people can't slow down.
Can't let life go by.
Can't pause for but a moment.

We take a stroll every once in a while
(actually more than just a while).
Several times a week
and every walk
is a new adventure.

It's a time to think,
to talk,
to love the fall.

You are a frog in the well

And you can’t see beyond the wall

But I am a fish in the ocean

Nobody can stop my lively motion



You think the water in your well is the pacific

And don’t understand the wise counsel of a critic

I travel as long as I can

Swimming is really my fun



Only the dolphin can match me in the run

I feel why I can’t fly like a swan

I can go deep into the sea

The eagle flies very high with a spree



I really pity you , Mr  frog

Your thinking is really vague

And your movement is a mere hop

You will never come to the top

Reasons being shame, regret, and trouble,
You all became miserable
which made it double,
With thoughts as clear as clear itself,
The time was near,
I swept the shelf,
Downing the bottle,
The Tylenol to follow,
My heart was full,
My mind was hallow,
The body claimed,
My soul remained swallowed,
They all knew I disappeared,
So funerals canceled due to the weather,
Because I'm gone everything will be better,
My reasons being shame, regret, and all your trouble.

imaginary lines form
people feel like ghosts
wandering around halls

the love of life
you don’t seem to be real
upheld
unwanted
this sprit grows weak

my love you are imaginary to me

if I am to reach for you
I know my hand to pull through
To touch on the other side

the things you say are my minds truths
And truths I cannot
you are only apart of me
never to be your own
I am all consuming
my thoughts are all I know

I have given this a lot of thought,
and soon I will tell the truth,
the girl you see before you,
isn't the girl you thought you knew.
She is shattered like the mirror glass,
and lying open on the floor,
the girl you once loved,
has ceased and is no more.

She is replaced by another Spirit,
that was created after years of hurt and pain,
she was broken and came undone,
has nothing in this life to gain.

I'm not who you think I am,
just trying to escape.
But still trying to keep my eye on you,
so everything is fake.

Here I've found some dusty knots
I forget how they were tied
I wish I'd written diagrams
So I could break them when I tried

Instead I left them tangled up
So tight I'd pulled the lines
'til every one was all the rest
Each one another entwined

I pushed, I pulled, I clawed and bit
Each of the knots held strong
And now I know why here they stayed
Hidden away so long

I'll box, I'll hide, I'll stash away
Once more without a trace
But deep inside I'll want to know
Why I tied the **** things in the first place

You tell me you love me
I wish it where true
You tell me you've missed me
I use to miss you

When you walked out the door
I thought I would cry
But you just kept right on walking
Without saying,  good-bye
So now that you've come back
It isn't the same
With you it was only just a game
I once truely loved you
But that was before
Now you say you love me
It doesn't matter anymore

Cause you fooled me once
Shame on me
May think you can fool me twice
But this time the games won't be nice
From me
I can forgive, but not forget
But...darling,
Once is enough of your ****

Our love was a flower,
but somebody came and plucked all the petals off.

Everyone around us took one, and they passed it around with whispers.
The wind took them and shoved them in our ears,
and we ignored them.

But our love is nothing without color.

If I come up in life
People are jealous of me
If I am a failure, they take pity on me
I have the guts to face enemies
But I can’t bear sympathies even from friends
I am born to win but not to run away from life’s problems
If there is a problem, I will try to solve it
If there is no remedy, I will leave it
I don’t want to ***** in the dark
but I light a lamp and play in the park

If you were a puzzle,
I'd take you apart
and carefully analyze each piece.
It'd be a challenge to learn every part,
how they fit in together, and why,
a fun little game of you.
I'd begin to know the real you.
The mystery part in which i had no clue
Everything you hide, i'd find
But while I was playing this game,
forgive me if I maybe-
just maybe-
slip a piece into my pocket
(it was an accident I swear),
so that whenever you're being put back together,
you wouldn't be whole without me.

I'm crying,
I'm dying,
I'm giving up hope,
I'm giving my life to a world full of dope,
I'm trying,
I'm trying,
But never succeeding,
I try to hide my pain but it won't stop bleeding,
Pouring out my eyes,
Tears of a broken heart,
First breaks the heart then the life falls apart,
And it's so hard to fix,
When other ******* people just break you for kicks!
Break me,
And shatter me,
When I try so hard,
Birth is a cut,
And life is the scar,
Experience the operation,
Watch the one's that go far,
And the one's that fall down,
Into a life of a frown,
Two arms with no hugs,
Two lips with no kisses,
His mind is on drugs,
So he swings and he misses,
Himself high above the rest,
Only because heaven's near by,
Flying so high that I can kiss the sky,
I'm so close up to heaven I just want to die,
Cause the pain that I feel,
I cannot take anymore!..
Don't tell me you love me and walk out the door!
I would never do that!
And I never ******* did!..
Why don't you talk to me instead of acting like a kid!..
You can't hurt someone like this!
Not without pain,
What do you feel!?
Because I feel shame!
I was born a mistake,
And I'm not good at math,
But you plus me,
Seems like the right path,
I know cause I've learned,
How much I love you in truth,
Real love like this can exist in a youth,
But a youth no more,
And a man come true,
You have no idea how much pain i've endured for you,
And I'd do all ******* again!
All this ******* **** for you!
Tell me what the **** else that I have to do!
To you I have no worth,
With no idea why,
People always ask why even try?
I try because I love you,
And care beyond the love an elder,
A mistake can be fixed,
Ask a teacher or a welder,
Ask how can you fix it,
A problem such as this?
All it takes is a hug,
Love,
And a kiss,
Don't you remember the past?
When you would make my day?
When we talked to each other like always something to say,
Well I got a lot,
And you don't ever listen,
You treat me worse than ****,
But your eyes still glisten,
I look into your eyes,
And you know what I see?
I see what I've always saw,
Me...

The vivid colors,
Through my eyes,
I see.

They remind me of what’s
Meant to be.

If my life were lived blind of
Everything,

Then I suppose I’d only know of
What my other senses bring.

It’s a shame,
The amount of complaints
Each moment summons.

Especially when,
If I started counting my blessings
Right now,
I’d already be in the dozens.

Sadness lives to hollow the heart
Its pleasure is our pain
It abides in darkness and fear
It lives for weakness to gain.
Burying itself within our minds
Trying to steal our dreams
Desiring one tear to fall
Knowing it shall succeed.
Sadness is but a figment
That of which we can control
If we refuse to get lost within it
It cannot deprive our souls.
Our strength and our wisdom
Keeps us standing tall
As long as we fight sadness
We are saved from it all.

Paint my life
Paint it with bright colors
Not with a brush
But with a pen

Write me an epic
Sing me a serenade
Let the words flow like water down a glacier
Pure and free

Wind rushing against the autumn burnt trees
Its voice howling, moaning with warning of Jack Frost in her midst

A piece of me dies
Along with the season
A new phase of life begins
A time to embrace

Vision is amazing,
As essence through our eyes,
Truth is held in vision,
A sight seen never lies,
It's impossible to explain,
Feelings felt when I see you,
Because there entity's unknown,
But my eyes know beauty,
& it's beyond it what you've shown,
My eyes are attracted to yours,
& I dont seem to know why,
What I see in you is beauty,
Endless to the sky,
I've never written a poem to a stranger,
But what do I have to lose?
I don't know why i'm scared to talk to you,
It's just im so confused,
My heart's been beaten & shattered,
Lied to & abused,
The people who hurt me,
Just did it to amuse...
Themselves,
With the tears from my eyes,
I am a girl...
Who tries,
& tries...
& tries...
To find happiness again,
A part of me is missing,
I want to change that to back then,
I'm not an angry person,
My name is Celine,
I don't know anything but **,
But I wish I knew you well,
I am nervous what you'll think of me,
Like if you thought that I was crazy,
But my eyes have seen you in reality,
& what i've seen is just amazing,
I can talk I really do,
I promise it I swear,
I'm a nice person,
Full of love & care,
I think it'd be cool to get to know you,
I just really don't know how,
But when I see you with my eyes...
All I can think is...
Wow...

All this face
With no lace
Running a race
With no place
All this nerves
Rejecting life &
All its space

Looks like this town got the best of us
Like we already dont stress enough
We really aren’t different I do many things
That you do
Maybe that’s the reason I can see right thru you
When I get a chance, I try to make you smile
Take you away and let you stay a while
Because you deserve that, I swear you do
Just like you see the beauty in me I see the beauty
In you
Smile for me
And not that fake smile you give the rest of your peers
I’m talking about that smile you wear when you’re
holding back tears
I love that
I love the real you
The you in pain
The you that is so hard to maintain
Because thats what I see even when you’re not
Trying to show it
Sometimes I feel like I’m your medicine
Matter of fact I know it
Let me please you..
In ways you aren't use to
I wont ever use you
Just enhance the way you think
The way you take it all in
I wanna be in your corner when
You win
Because thats how you love someone
And I love you everyday and night
I’ll go the deepest depths of left
To make sure you're alright

All defined, labeled, identified.
like quiet children who stand aside,
                                                    Silent as a dusty book,
Captivated by their own shoes,
must be pardoned, must be excused.
Those who mumble and avoid your eyes,
they do not mind, they’re just shy.

Imagine if everything still and reserved
Were undermined by such a word.
What would we say of those calm characters
mountains, towers, poetry, flowers?
If perchance one afternoon we met the horizon or the moon,
Are we to say that because often they stand away,
Afar in photos, landscapes, scenery,
off center, silent, beyond the sea,
That these defining features of the sky
Should be cast off and labeled shy?

Those amongst us, who silently
Live largely in their reverie,
Hiding behind their books and journals,
Heard not, but for the scratch of their pencils,
Will name you someday;
They'll have something undeniably brilliant to say.
Should you disagree, consider and think,
Violent, boisterous thunder is the voice of silent-seeming lightning.

I can still smell the lustful intentions of your cologne
in the shirt you once wore.
I regret all the meaningless battles
of a couples war.

I know you will soon be
back inside my arms.
but the voices inside of me
scream with jealous alarms

I argue with the lies
inside my head;
I know one day
we will be wed...

I cry as I kiss the ghost
of you in memory.
I know our love binds and distorts
in tearful symmetry.

Without a promise in this cold world
You carried me
9 months without guarantee for
What the future held
You believed in me before I could
Believe in myself
The core of my soul all started with your love
You reading me books as you as you
Rocked in the rocking chair
You put your life behind you
Just to give me a chance
To see a life worth living
A life that you felt you didn’t have yourself

Without a promise in the world
You raised me for 18 years
Not knowing what the future held
You taught me how to be a woman
How to value my true self
Raised me like a Queen because you
Showed me royalty and loyalty
I can’t ever show you my gratitude
There is not enough gold or money
In the world to pay you back

Now you have a promise in this world
I will always love you I will never abandon you
Because there is no greater bond than
What a daughter has with her mother
No one will ever replace you in my
Heart my memory or my soul
I know God exists
I see it through your energy
Your courage your strength
Your giving nature
Your will to carry on and live life
To leave the past behind you
And to see a brighter path
You give me strength to be the
Best I can be
No matter what I accomplish
You will always be
The best part of me
