"prettiest" poems
Sitting on the corner while Starring At the glances of your smile all over Cover the room by your face unveiling Up to this moment, I want to be near, (you were a mile from here) Thinking It was cloudy on my mind, But when you are here by my side You are making my day as bright Showing the beauty behind, (They have nothing to hide, nothing to hide.) How deep is the ocean trenches? How far is the stars throughout the abyss? How much warm is your embraces? How much cold Is your lips to kiss? l don’t much care about counting all of these, As long as you are with me, you are my bliss (I could tell,) heaven’s gate is not the place of happiest And angels are not those prettiest, Indeed, God is always be the wisest, For sending me a fallen angel, I’ve caught the brightest, the brightest Lately, You stole what between these lungs You open my chest, You let it pour, my bleeding heart I cant deny, how i feel, you are my crush I have been stunned on Your eye lashes, (glances, perfume scents, and blushes) How deep is the ocean trenches? How far is the stars throughout the abyss? How much warm is your embraces? How much cold Is your lips to kiss? Do I have to care about all of that anymore, As long as you are with me, what should I have to ask for? Emerald, jade, diamond, gold and silver, I guess nothing is forever, unless me and you In this world of deception, anyone can be a liar Just remember, Nothing is to fear, I am always here. .......I am always here.

Sonnet for YOU
A pink kimono yukata Adorned with velvet flowers Standing there in the Springtime mist of Japan, Guarded by Sakura trees. Skies are blue, Singing a beautiful song, Pink lips like adorable flowers on a spring day, A most beautiful, kind and loving princess to ever walk Japan. Your beautiful face, Your kindest soul, Your adorable lips, You smiled at me. You have the prettiest voice, that calms my soul. You're the most beautiful and loving princess, ever to walk Japan... © 2014 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Princess Sakura (Regional Japan)
i’ve never fallen in love before but i’m telling you if i did, my bones would screech and creak and crack to build you a home that doesn’t fight back and i would shower you with love until you drowned because i don’t know how to love unless it becomes too much someway or somehow and you would become all that i breathe and need and see and the very sound of your name would be enough to cause another relapse because i’ll get addicted too soon and too fast and you’ll think it’s great at first until i’m publicly on my knees aching for your velvet kisses back and i've never cared for someone this way before but i'm telling you if i did, my lungs would collapse and inflate again and again because you will be the only thing i'll ever breathe in and the people in my life would never amount to you, and maybe that's a little messed up but i wrote it felt it bled it, so it must be true because i don't know how to let someone in unless i push every other person out and you'll love my attention at first until you're throwing glass plates at my following figure until you're yelling regrets and things i should've considered until you hate me because you don't want to be the only one even if i want you to be. i’ve danced with the devil because he has the prettiest eyes i’ve ever seen in my life but i didn’t love him i’ve kissed the hands of god because he smells like my childhood home and i liked that a lot but i didn’t love him i’ve cut open my skin for my first girlfriend because she promised to stay and that drove me insane but i didn’t love her and i’m telling you if i did i would write a poem convincing her that i didn’t because i’ve never loved in a way that doesn’t became some form of a burden. and i don’t love you yet but i am going to scrub my words into your naked body and i am going to promise that there’s nobody but you and you are going to love every second of it because you’ve given in to destruction and seduction and you already understand everything about pain you already know there’s everything to lose and i’m the only thing you’d gain but that’s okay because you’ve never fallen in love before.

before i fall for you
i’ve never fallen in love before but i’m telling you if i did, my bones would screech and creak and crack to build you a home that doesn’t fight back and i would shower you with love until you drowned because i don’t know how to love unless it becomes too much someway or somehow and you would become all that i breathe and need and see and the very sound of your name would be enough to cause another relapse because i’ll get addicted too soon and too fast and you’ll think it’s great at first until i’m publicly on my knees aching for your velvet kisses back and i've never cared for someone this way before but i'm telling you if i did, my lungs would collapse and inflate again and again because you will be the only thing i'll ever breathe in and the people in my life would never amount to you, and maybe that's a little messed up but i wrote it felt it bled it, so it must be true because i don't know how to let someone in unless i push every other person out and you'll love my attention at first until you're throwing glass plates at my following figure until you're yelling regrets and things i should've considered until you hate me because you don't want to be the only one even if i want you to be. i’ve danced with the devil because he has the prettiest eyes i’ve ever seen in my life but i didn’t love him i’ve kissed the hands of god because he smells like my childhood home and i liked that a lot but i didn’t love him i’ve cut open my skin for my first girlfriend because she promised to stay and that drove me insane but i didn’t love her and i’m telling you if i did i would write a poem convincing her that i didn’t because i’ve never loved in a way that doesn’t became some form of a burden. and i don’t love you yet but i am going to scrub my words into your naked body and i am going to promise that there’s nobody but you and you are going to love every second of it because you’ve given in to destruction and seduction and you already understand everything about pain you already know there’s everything to lose and i’m the only thing you’d gain but that’s okay because you’ve never fallen in love before.

Do the flowers mourn when one is picked? I know that question is kinda morbid and sick. But I’ve always wondered if they somehow know, Like for weddings and birthdays that it’s their time to go? Do they feel sorry for lovestruck dames, That pull off petals whilst saying their crushes’ names, That pulled the last petal on “He loves me not”? Do they feel bad that she’s distraught? Do they compete on who’s the prettiest? Each person has an opinion of which flower is the best, Of their looks are they actually aware, Do flowers even care?

Do Flowers Mourn
Crows and corn chips, Squirrels and beer sips… Lazy hammock and Hemming-way, our rabbits mowing the grass today... A nap under the advancing stars, A Paradise in our Backyard! Raccoons love the chicken bones, everynight, a fox visits our home, Fish guts and crab-leg shells, opossum out there giving-‘em-Hell, Casting corn and some bird seed, for Mother Nature everything she needs, God’s aces and a Wild Card! A Paradise in our Backyard! Ohhh! In summer a Bar-be-que, and you the prettiest girl I ever Knew! Couple ‘o kids and a swimming pool, mini-van and Cadillac-cool, Love the beaches and mountains, of Carolina and my country-kin, Wouldn’t trade it for the whole of Mars, A Paradise in our Backyard! You and me under the stars, our home, children and a dream of ours, Leo, Virgo, Aries and Mars, I thank the Lord for your tender heart. Our life amazing, though a, rough start, A Paradise in our Backyard! Oo-oh -a paradise in our Backyard! You and me under the stars, Our home and children; a dream of ours, Leo, Virgo, Aries and Mars, I thank the Lord for your tender heart... ...a Paradise in our Backyard! Some people say it’s just a yard, ...this paradise under the stars, Leo, Virgo, Aries and Mars, you, me, children of ours. Our home, children, a dream of ours, I thank you Jesus for your tender heart; Paradise in our Backyard! A Paradise in our Backyard! Oooh -a paradise in our Backyard! You and me under the stars, Our home and children a dream of ours, Leo and Virgo, Aries and Mars, A Paradise in our Backyard! Praise Jesus and NAS-CAR! You and me under the stars, our home and children a dream of ours, Leo and Virgo, Aries and Mars, some people say it’s just a yard? You and me under the stars -and a Paradise in our Backyard! *A Paradise in our Backyard! A Paradise in our Backyard! A Paradise in our Backyard!* <musical break> I love you, heaven: Hea Anna

I want to be your abacus baby,Oh you can count on me. I wont say that i love you, or i heart you, I less than 3 you. Your molecules must be moving fast,girl. Cause your really hot. Are you igneous sedimentary or metamorphic? All i know is baby you rock. And if god existed I'd thank him for you, but I'm rational and read a lot of Sam Harris. Your beautiful like the font garamad,but i want to see you sandarac, take your pants off. I want to be your abacus baby, you can count on me, And i observe your quirks oscillating, and I'm formulating, a g-string theory.. Like an archeologist,I'm gonna try and compute your age. cause i really want to date you. You make me feel like a male giraffe. I want to nudge your **** and make you urinate,and mate you. Scientific fact,thats what they do. The value of my love for you cannot be expressed exactly. More rational then Pi. Hey **** is a legitimate word in scrabble, just FYI I want to be your abacus baby, you can count on me. You can **** me into your super massive black hole, the center of your galaxy. Im talkin ****** I may not be the strongest or the prettiest, but my knowledge of grammar shines. I know how to use the words  further and farther..correctly. Every fricken time. Example:farther indicates physical distance and further a depth or degree example: the moon is getting farther from the earth about 4 centimeters annually. Fun factoid,take it home with ya. You just keep getting further into my heart. You just keep getting farther into my heart. I want to be your abacus baby, you can count on me,and if the situation is ambiguous, further and farther can be used interchangeably. Just a fun factoid. I want to be your abacus baby, you can count on me. Baby i less than 3 you. So please take off your pants.

You have the prettiest eyes and I'm sorry I made them cry You always tell me about the story of your childhood, why you have crooked teeth, but for me I saw how beautiful that smile was and I'm sorry if I'm the reason why it fade and turn into frown. I know you don't like your body but it doesn't matter to me I saw how beautiful you are when you talk about your passion, your dreams and your goals I'm sorry if you feel bad about yourself again You have the biggest heart, it's pure and fragile And I know it would be an understatement to say sorry for breaking it As some people are better off as friends before turning into lovers.

Sorry for the Friendzone
Life is a rose Sometimes it showers you in its petals Sometimes it makes you grab it by the thorns But even when you bleed the rose is still the prettiest gift you'll ever recieve My favorite flower will always be the radiant sunflower, But my life sprouts from the seed of a rose And I may never be as tall or happy as a sunflower But I still refuse to walk away from the sun The beams like glitter dancing off a dream A dream I'm too small and scared to reach I am not afraid of being and accepting who I am This little garden patch grows despite going through the harshest summers, dryest droughts, and most desperate winters Other roses wilt and wither away I make this garden shine with the sunflowers in my eyes

The rusted belt is tight in our hometown city. Black smoke masks the lights In one gaseous setting; the permenant fitting Of our hometown city Trees exchange steel In our hometown city. You’ve never seen the wheels churn and the deals burnt In the factories that take pity On the nitty-gritty of our Own hometown city. The last laughs with us In our hometown city We don’t’ ride the Cali bus, But yea, I'd say we are witty, cause al'the prettiest girls Live in our hometown city. The river’s been burnt In our hometown city. Yea we’ve learned a lot From our own ad(e)missions; And now, clinics fill prescriptions in ourown hometown city In my own hometown city We’re slicker than you, Even though our York’s isn’t new… Why? Watch my city revive in Front of your eyes- then ask me; Why is this your hometown city?

The Underestimation of Cleveland
Like a gazelle she ballets with gracefulness Like a ballerina Dancing to Dance of the Little Swans With beauty and grace Oh let me see thy fair face, Sweet sister of mine Let me watch you ballet gracefully Through woods, fields, and meadows She sleeps soundly in a bed of ferns Oh sweet sister of mine With the most prettiest satin wings you ever saw And a pretty pink flowing gown And soft pale pink ballet slippers With the most pristine pink ribbons Tied around her delicate ankles She ballets, Oh sister of mine With a crown of baby rosebuds on her Head And rosettes on her gown She dances with delight, Oh, fair sister of mine She dances even more beautifully And gracefully Than the yellow sunflowers Of gold that waltz in fields and meadows Dance for me, Oh fair sister of mine Dance to me on hills of sublime green Dance, Oh, beautiful sister of mine Ballet for me gracefully like the Lotus ballets upon the sapphire lake Ballet Oh, sweetest sister of mine Waltz for me in a field of dancing flowers Waltz for me, Oh, dear sister of mine I love you, oh, graceful sister of mine ~Marian~

I Disappeared Inside Your Smile
I recall from some time ago a pink plastic tea set a white plastic rocking chair and a yellow plastic pony with blue plastic hair,      which was impossible to untangle except for with the green plastic brush that belonged to my blonde barbie doll out of her plastic vanity cabinet beneath her plastic vanity mirror,      which she checked her makeup in before meeting her plastic boyfriend in his plastic van to go to a plastic diner that served plastic pizza,      which was really just a sticker on a tiny plastic plate that would get lost in the bottom of my plastic toybox,      which had a plastic lid that was also my sailboat that brought me to a plastic castle with a plastic princess who had the prettiest plastic eyes and the most elaborate plastic dress and the shiniest plastic crown,      which was the envy of all the plastic women in the entire plastic kingdom,      which was really just a plastic castle surrounded by an enchanted plastic forest filled with furry plastic creatures all atop a clear plastic box,      which held the plastic dishes and plastic glasses and plastic food in case a feast should be thrown for an unexpected plastic guest from a plastic kingdom in the far east,      which was really just a plastic plate placed on the plastic-coated windowsill,      from which I would peer into the blue sky through broken plastic binoculars while standing on a yellow and green plastic step stool,      which when turned upside down became not simply a make-shift plastic sailboat, but a glorious, luxury plastic cruise liner for my pretty plastic dolls      and I would board my toybox lid      and we would sail into a perfect plastic horizon      which was really just a white plastic baby gate that kept me from tumbling into the world downstairs where things are wooden and glass and cloth but not plastic for plastic is synthetic and plastic is superficial and plastic looks bad against gilded wallpaper but plastic is cheaper and plastic is safer and plastic is durable and childhood is plastic

I have seen her a stealthily frail flower walking with its fellows in the death of light,against whose enormous curves of flesh exactly cubes of tiny fragrance try; i have watched certain petals rapidly wish in the corners of her youth;whom,fiercely shy and gently brutal, the prettiest wrath of blossoms dishevelling made a pale fracas upon the accurate moon…. Across the important gardens her body will come toward me with its hurting ****** smell of lilies….beyond night’s silken immense swoon the moon is like a floating silver hell a song of adolescent ivory.

I Have Seen Her A Stealthily Frail
~The prettiest butterfly flew into my window, She had spots on her wings, beautiful spots, She flew with a certain flow. The beat of her wings, lifted my heart. I love this butterfly, no doubt. She's been there for me, when I've fallen. She's been there to help me out. I've known her for five months now, I love her, that I do. She's the best thing that has ever happened to me, I just wish she could see it, too. She's dying inside, her heart melting. I wish I could save her, if I only knew, That that butterfly, The best friend I could have, Went back out my window, and flew~

~Goodbye my butterfly~
Meet me at the place where the sunrise and sunset are joined by the prettiest clouds. A tranquil place where times stood still for more than one eternity. Stretch out your limbs with Lotus hands and play the spoons for me. Breath out your life, then breath it in expanding endlessly. The mother of creation, the atomic act, the divine self, a metaphor for hunger. A life filled with space gaps, dust, prophecies and jars. A universal love that's born of dreams and fallen stars! The proprio-ceptive tools that launched the ships to voyage within ourselves. To seek out that illusive and wilful spark within our hearts and souls. Stretch out your limbs with Lotus hands and play the spoons for me. In that tranquil place where times stood still for more than one eternity. Meet me at the place where the sunrise and sunset are joined by the prettiest clouds. Stretch out your limbs with Lotus hands and play the spoons for me. Don G

Poem for Don G
Charming the word first comes to mind, Hey the word comes out of my Mouth, A smile on my face, That cant be removed behind my mask, As I try to play it cool, A brawl of rationality in my mind, No right words comes out of my mouth, As she wears that black dress, She's the prettiest girl I see in that crowded place. A date that is not a date, wishing it was THE date, Every minute on that day, Locked on my memory, As my first date with you, It was the best I ever been with, As your ride arrive, No words comes out of my mouth, Only "I enjoy the day" Hoping it is more than a friendly date, for the next one I ask you out.

First Date
Green eyes I thought the color of eyes was just the color Until I laid eyes on his His green eyes Became ordinary and beautiful Oh his green eyes The eyes that make me feel safe The eyes that makes my heart feel warm His eyes are not just eyes His eyes are the most powerful His eyes became my home From thousands of miles away His eyes as he looks at me through a screen Manage to make me feel so special even with the distance Oh the man with green eyes The one that made my brown eyes become so much more Since he looks into mine like I am the prettiest girl in the world The man with green eyes that saved a brown-eyed girl like me

Green eye love story
I'm six years old. I'm six years old and my favourite colour is green because it's the colour of my eyes and I think my eyes are the prettiest things I have ever seen. I'm eight years old. I'm eight years old and I had a nightmare so bad I felt like my eyes were deceiving me. My favourite colour is now the same pale blue as my Mum's floral bedsheets because they make me feel safe. I'm ten years old now. I'm ten years old and I'm a big girl because I'm allowed to walk to school with my friend instead of my Mum. We walk past fields of buttercups and other pretty flowers but my new favourite colour is the peach of the rose in my front garden. I'm twelve years old. I'm twelve years old and I can't stand the colour green anymore because the meaner people in my school decided my self worth was less important than their jokes. I don't have a favourite colour anymore, but if you ask I'll say it's purple. I'm fourteen years old. I'm fourteen which means I've been a teenager for a year and I still can't stand the colour green. My Mum let me dye my hair for the first time and now it is red and red is my favourite colour, but if you asked I would still tell you it's purple. I'm sixteen now. I'm sixteen and I think I know everything, I met a boy that I like for the first time, my Mum doesn't know, but I think he makes the colour green a bit easier to look at because he told me he loves my eyes and that they are the most beautiful things he has ever seen. He gave me a pair of rose tinted glasses and I'm not quite sure why, but for now my favourite colour is the deep brown of his eyes but if anyone asks, my favourite colour is still purple. I'm eighteen now. I'm eighteen and I can finally drink without it being illegal, and I have started drinking to forget everything except the colour of my Mum's pale blue floral bedsheets, the peach of the rose in my front garden, the bright red of my hair and the green of my eyes but most of all I'm drinking to forget the purple of the bruises that litter my skin, the purple that I always insisted was my favourite colour for reasons unknown to me. I should be twenty years old now, and my favourite colour should be the orange of the sunset, the pink of the sunrise or maybe even the yellow of the buttercups in the fields I used to walk past on my way to school, but I did not make it to twenty years old. My favourite colour was never purple and I never asked for my skin to be constantly tainted that way, but you made sure I never healed and now my Mum is laying purple flowers on my grave and she's wishing she fought more to get my favourite colour to be green again like when I was six years old and in love with myself and the world around me, because if I still loved the innocent green then maybe I wouldn't be suffering my greatest nightmare as a child with the only comfort being tucked up in the seemingly endless sea of brown. I always tricked myself and everyone else into thinking things were perfect with rose tinted glasses but the lenses shattered and the last flower you laid on my grave was the peach coloured rose from my front garden, and now the petals have wilted and all of the colour has been drained from me but this new world has more hues than I could have ever dreamed of.

I can't remember when we first met Neither can you, I'm willing to bet. That weekend I didn't really notice you Clearly the future wasn't something I knew. But I do remember believe it or not The first time I thought you were hot. We played cards and you gave me a smile I hope to remember that for a while I also remember when I finally saw That you are a girl, without a flaw. It was early on that New Years eve But even then I did not believe That one day you would be the one and without you I'd be coming undone. When we met at the beach, I remember You'd gotten prettier since December It was in that park, the day I asked you out You were at your prettiest without a doubt Isn't funny how I love you and yet... I can't remember when we first met

When we first met.
Barbie has the prettiest face says the little girl to her reflection how could I reach such perfection? If only somehow I could trace Barbie's outline and take her place And so this became her obsession to doubt herself and fear rejection So there, her life became a maze. Barbie's really only plastic. The realization comes much too late. All these years have been wasted. Ideals shouldn't be so drastic. A stressed out model is about to break, "Don't worry, we'll Photoshop" they said.

Plastic
I am not who you think I am It may seem to you that I am weak But believe me when I say that I am stronger than what I seem And I am better than you could ever imagine. I may be not an A- student But I am smart Smart enough to know that I can beat you in anything At any time soon Today, Tomorrow, or the day after I may not be a marathoner But I can run the distance I might arrive late to my goal But I will be there I cant assure that I won't win the race But I will try to do the best I am not the prettiest girl in the class But I am not Barbie either I don't expect to be skinny I don't expect to be fat I do expect to be happy I expect to feel safe with my self I am not the one who will always be right I am human not a robot If I am wrong I smile because I know it was a mistake I might not be the best in Biology But i can do better the next time I won't Win today But I will try again tomorrow And if I die before I win I will die happy. Today is one day. I wont stop Now. I wont look back Not because of pride But because I wont dare to fall I wont trip again Especially not with the same rock I know now that I am not Perfect BUT I AM WILLING TO GIVE LIFE MY BEST SHOT

My best shot
For my 11th birthday I bought myself the prettiest gift. A paintbrush. It was a shiny silver. When I used it for the first time, I felt relieved. The burdens fell off my shoulders onto my wrists. I created the most beautiful crimson artworks. I packed my burdens into fine lines, drawing the red of their weight. I am an artist. I am covered in my creations, from my wrists to my thighs. Now, forever.

Paintbrush.
I wanna **** myself in a thousand ways. I wanna feel nothing but pain for days. I wanna lose my ******* mind, and never think again. I want you to rip up my pedals, my roots and my stem. I wanna die and be dead forever, I wanna be plucked of every feather. I want no one to sit around with, to feel horrible together. This feeling is best felt alone, it slips in like a crisp breeze, frosting your bones. Then it warms up your heart, but it doesn't make you better. It ***** with my head, and makes me write you these letters. Until i want nothing else, then to be able to forget, the prettiest elf. But you can relate to how bad this must be, accept that every day, there's no one Loving you more than me. And now there is nothing but fate to steal. But i have faith, that I could heal. This terrible affliction, you're forced to feel. I love you, and I want your life. To be filled with love, and free from strife.
