"tori" poems
FIR AAYI HOLI
Fir aayi Holi ek baar, fir le gayi mere dil ka karaar;
Puchhna chahti hu, kyu rulateho tum mujhe yuhi, baar baar.
Itne rango ke beech bhi hei tan man feeka; aankhoki pichkaarise behte hei aansu zaar zaar
Saalo beet chuke firbhi nazar dekhti hei teri raah, lagaataar.
Radha ka pyaar hi hei kuch aisa, maanta nahi yeh kabhi haar
Jaise kanha ke beena Radha adhuri aise hi, piya- milan beena, Holi hei adhuri.
Kanha tere beena rang feeke, Chand feeka; soona lage mohe sansaar.
Aa bhi ja Mohan, itna ne tadpa, raah niharu tori; kab aayega tu jamuna paar.

Tori sang it so well. . .
I'm a Fire On The Side
He comes to me for pleasure
But sleeps next to her every night
I don't know when I started caring
Nor if I even should
But one thing I do know now
Is that I wouldn't leave him if I could
I love the feel of his arms around me
I love waking with his skin against mine
How long before we're alone again?
What can I do to pass the time?
It's evil to be this, this ***** this *****
It's wrong to think he'd feel anything more
I'm just his Fire On The Side, burning his soul
But she has his heart, I, just this gaping hole.

I can always count on that blue sky
you have helped through things all my life
you have healed immense wounds
that pierced through my heart like a knife
when nothing seems to go my way
you are always there on a sunny day
when I feel as if I have lost all my might
you always make me feel like its alright
your beauty is known throughout the world
you warm the heart of every boy and girl
your always there to watch over us all
and you never ask anything of us at after all
maybe I love blue skies
because it reminds me of Tori's eyes
my poor deceased sister
lord knows how much I miss her
whenever the world has done me wrong
you were always there all along
as long as your above me I have no fright
when the sky is blue I'll be alright

Melodramatic
Aryan
the waspy waspy
for Tori Amos
Go, go, go, go now
The car is here
But I forgot to leave the light on
But I too have never seen Barbados
I only want to keep your red head dancing
as you've kept my blonde head
dancing
a happy phantom
from China to New York City
a dancing girl
for so many years

The bigger person.
That's what is expected.
Don't be childish.
Show some disipline.
Stop whining.
You're to old to be a child.
When was i young enough?
When?
I don't remember.
Just the comand,
Be the bigger person.
Don't cry.
Don't be angry.
Don't whine.
Don't feel.
Be a rock.
Let them hit you.
Don't retaliate.
I raised you better.
No.
You didn't.
You weren't there.
She took the job.
She tried.
But i was a rock.
Like you want now.
When did you turn back into a child?
Back?
BACK?
I was never a child.
Never.
Not once.
You ruined that experience.
I try.
I try to do what you wish.
But I need memories.
Sad.
Angry.
Happy.
But no.
I'm not allowed to feel.
That's what your words say.
Don't feel Tori.
You don't need feelings.
They make worthless consequences.
Like you.
You break my heart.
When I need to cry.
Scream.
Celebrate.
Now.
All I have are words.
On a page noone will read.
If they do.
They wont care.
Wont know the truth.
I do.
Always will.
Be the bigger person.

walked upon your avenue 'bout a thousand times before
ironically, wasn't looking for a score
only had a pen as my sword
it's a shame
but good to know, some things remain the same
don't know what sounds were ringing in my ears then
but the beers and the tears made me a brave ten
guess I didn't feel enslaved then
guess I knew when turn the page when
someone enters your life's story
and you think you're better, cause everything seems boring
when you got neil or tori spitting wisdom in your lobes
and the poor **** is jammin' to that gangster **** that runs the globe
illuminati, glitterati, they don't want your body
it's just an echo of nevermore
used to know a girl named Lenore
until the birds poured into her head
stolen first were the memories and things unsaid
next came the dreams from a solitary bed
might as well have been in the middle of the ocean
I don't pretend to know your pain
or what it's like to lose or gain
I only know that I can conceive the notion
of waves crashing, so soothing, so earth-shattering
the infernal pressure felt from above while you're barely floating
and God seems to be gloating, like he created something in his image
so hold on, no matter how sinister
and of course, they all tell you it's in your mind
it's the devil doing paint by numbers in disguise
it's a gift-wrapped present with nothing inside but lead
but you know that crazy is just a term for the clock in your head
so you listen to his rhymes that flow, so lightly but so heavily
that they become your desire
so you use your last match to blow your best smoke ring
and never notice that the bed's on fire
and now you're back walking on the avenue
it took quite a few spins of that **** for you to get the gist
cause even the sages wouldn't know what side to be on
when it's you against the world, outsider vs insider, and on and on
it goes, so you rub elbows with a stranger
next move could be heaven or be danger
but this is your least favorite life
so you say **** it, hello, my name is, welcome to the show

Skylar,
What if you were told that I
Killed myself?
Ashley,
What would you do?
Maddie,
Would you miss my fake smile?
Mom,
Would you cry?
Dad,
Would you care?
Macky,
Would you miss me?
Tori,
Are you glad?
Bryce,
Would you miss our
Doctor Who days?
Trace,
Would you miss
Cuddling with me?
Mike,
Would your
Lessons be quieter?
Hellopoetry,
Would you miss my words that
Meant so little?

[Verse 1]
Teach me how to love You
Show me how to trust You
More than with my words or with a song
No, it's not been easy
To live life down on my knees
But with faith I know I'll carry on
[Chorus 1]
There is more to see than with my eyes
But fear sometimes can leave me paralyzed
I realize that I'm not in control
Yet it is well with my soul
[Verse 2]
The enemy's against me
Arrows all around me
Never knew the fight would last so long
In seasons of depression
I plead for Your protection
Make me right, I'm tired of being wrong[Chorus 2]
Every time there's hope, it seems to die
And the voices all around me feed that lie
Everything I see tells me to let go
Yet it is well with my soul
[Refrain]
It is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
It is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
[Tag]
Soul, my soul, woooh, my soul
With my soul, my soul, woooh, it is well with my soul
With my soul, my soul, woooh, my soul, woooh
[Chorus 3]
This fight I'm in is not of flesh and blood
The weapons that I need are in Your love
Lord, don't You ever let me go
You make it well with my soul
[Refrain]
It is well (It is well)
With my soul (With my soul)
It is well, it is well with...
[Outro]
Soul, my soul, woooh, my soul

I just wanted comfort
somewhere to lay my cold
body
before I leave this plane.
She ran so fast up those stairs
He was there at the top
to stop her and
make her wait
for me.
So we could go together

Her name was Tori
She ran like a cheetah
Spots speckled her body
Her hair blew in the wind
Soft laughter escaped her
She ran for enjoyment
T was for talent
She could do anything
O was for odd
She was her own person
R was for radiant
She emitted an aura
I was for intelligence
She had a mind of everything
She fit her name like a glove
Silent awe in her wake
No one could stop her
Something always burned within
She never stopped running

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Jake and Brita were searching for not just a mouse.
Their stockings were hung by the fridge with care,
In hopes that mom Laurel would willingly share.
In just a short time they were snug in their beds,
While visions of chipmunks danced in their heads.
It wasn't just chipmunks they dreamed of that night,
But also the rabbits who they made take flight.
In a short time there arose such a clatter
They jumped from the couch to see what was the matter.
And there to their wondering eyes did appear
The spirits of others that used to live here.
First, there was Josie who made the most noise,
Chasing the others, especially the boys.
But Ari and Teddy would not let her run
Because they decided she'd stifle their fun.
Tori was circling to see what to do
When Kobie and Liver quickly ran through.
Then they ALL came together to join in a song
While Brita and Jake, wide eyed, looked on.
The message they brought on that night of a birth
Was of PEACE and GOOD WILL to all on the earth.
This message was clear to those who would listen,
As clear as the snow which often would glisten.
And then, in the distance, was the sound of a whistle
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But they were heard to exclaim as they flew out of sight,
"Peace to all of God's creatures, and to all a good-night!"

I have a friend
One who I'll ask anything
I call her
"The all knowing Tori"
And laugh as it goes to her head
I trust her with my life
And my deepest darkest secrets
She watches me
When I'm at my lowest
And calms me down
When I'm at my highest
I love this girl
As a sister
And I'll never let her go
Even if I have to fight
The voice in my head
Every time I tell her something big

I lean back on my factory-fresh
Couch (that still smells of IKEA)
And turn that Jeff Buckley's Grace
Up so loud the cat escapes under
The bed; ears flat, wide eyed...
And remember. I flip through
My own history -forgotten love,
Nights of such beauty they
Forged themselves onto my
Mind. I see myself stronger;
Dumber. Rougher hands and
Mind.
I hear Chris Cornell and Tori
Amos in shared recollection.
I walked Oslo's paved streets
From a job I loathed.
But it was summer.
I was free.
I was a rock star waiting
To be.
I see hopes I had that remind me
It's not too late for that.
And begin to resonate with
*This is your time.
This is when you choose your
Future. Choose.
It's never too late for
Anything*.

I heard that there are seasons
To laugh and to cry
I struggle with the season
When You lived and You died
It's hard to play this game
Because the rules, they don't seem fair
If You care, God if You're still there
[Verse 2]
Bombs falling in Syria
A child dying of AIDS
Fighting 'round the world
A daddy lost his girl
Still we kneeled and prayed
But Heaven can feel silent
And the floor beneath gets cold
When your soul refuses to let go
[Pre-Chorus]
But wait, tell me am I too late?
[Chorus]
What happens when the healing never comes?
Do we stand and curse the heavens
Or lift our hands and feel the sun
The mystery's not clear
Just once, Your voice I'd love to hear
What happens when the healing never comes?
[Verse 3]
I know we love the seasons
Like summer and the spring
But I've been stuck in winter
Since the fall of misery
One day I'm full of anger
And the next I'm full of fear
Every year, there's a new supply of tears
[Pre-Chorus]
But wait, tell me am I too late?
[Bridge]
Is there a chance for me to believe
We would dance together soon
If there's a billion galaxies
I'll count each one 'til I'm with You
They say where You are is better
But I want You here with me
Oh, this is for a purpose
But hurt won't let me see
[Verse 4]
So now I must be silent
Your voice is in the wind
The hands that made the heavens
Will heal the storm within
I have so many questions
I don't know where to begin
Since You were there at the beginning
You already know the end
[Chorus 2]
Ooh, what happens when the healing never comes
Do we stand and curse the heavens
Or lift our hands and feel the sun
The mystery's not clear
Just once, Your voice I'd love to hear
What happens when the healing
What happens when the healing
What happens when the healing never comes

Sunday morning
Light, warm and golden
One glass of wine, and Tori
Removing much more than clothing
Inhibitions, self consciousness
Falling to the floor
Dressed in empowerment
The strength of woman
Long time family friend
Memorize my totality
Enshrouded in flesh
One morning, in May

I still ask
myself why
you do the
things you
do, still wonder
if you hide behind
a paintbrush or
smoke blunts on
cliff edges with
pretty girls, wrapped
in bandanas, dust
and Albuquerque
sweat, I still romanticize
you in the back of my
head along with everything
else, and that song by Tori
Kelly winds back up over
the speakers.

She will be loyal
She will always be true
She will always be loving and kind
That smile of hers that melts your heart
Even when you know her a short while she stays with you
Joy and kindness personified
She will be greeted at the Rainbowbridge by a handsone Golden Retriever naned Skippy
I can hear him calling her name
Tori accompanies him and watches over us
We love her forever and always

Peter in the summer morning sun
his cool smile shaded by shadows run
his voice as soothing as coffee’s scent
tell me he wasn’t heaven sent
Peter of Malibu moss and Spanish rose
his lips like light-coral, in kissable repose
his legs slouched akimbo, like a tiger’s limbs
how I long to re-entangle myself in them.
Peter’s quick caress, on windy Tropez beaches
aren’t men the most delightful, of nature's invasive species?
I miss the jeweler’s precision, of his warm and playful hands
and how the sun slowly gifted him, with a model’s golden tan.
Peter sipping coffee under a brittle, New Haven sun,
his rough laugh following something silly I’d done.
There’s no cryptic, localized pathology, happening at the beach,
when the two of us are together, our worlds just seem complete.

I’m feeling old, I’m feeling sick and tired
I hate these people and I hate this town
My car has broken down yet newly tyred
I think I’m gonna burn this mother down
I’m gonna dress up and dry all bars out
I’m gonna win the Tori Spelling Bee
I’ll be like “Britney ***** I’m in Blackout
I’m gonna open my heart with a key
I’m gonna share my love and share my body
You ain’t no ********** ‘till someone paid you
I’ll be the Mary, Jesus, I embody
I am the Burning Paris: ***** I made you
I am not shady, I am simply fierce
Tonight I’m hungry, hairy, hot, and *****
Tonight I’m gonna drink blood, sweat, and tears
For all the ***** and **** with their crowns thorny

it's almost your birthday
you would of been 20
and we would be laughing
thinking back on how
our problems were so small
compared to things now
but we'd be okay
cuz we'd help each other
it's almost your birthday
would you be proud of me?
i've done so many things
that i know you'd love
a lot of the time
i wish you were around
because i need the extra push
and you always gave me one
it's almost your birthday
and it's hard not to cry
thinking about you
always makes me a mess
you would of done great things
but i guess it's done now
i promise i'll do good
for both of our sakes
it's almost your birthday
and i miss you tori
i miss you a lot
