As I sit here
alone and thinking
Distracted thoughts
yet contemplating
All the while
aggravating
This soul of mine
won’t stop debating

It cries to me
that I am free
Through clearer eyes
I should see
Hold no regrets
to the past
Just cause some things
didn’t last

I try to see through
this emotional haze
In hopes of a future
in which to praise
Not thinking of past
as my golden days
I’m living them now
right here, my way!

Turn around,
…runaway
For fear that love,
…may come your way
Emotions locked,
… deep within
Acting as love,
… were a mortal sin

Thought’s of you,
…everyday
These feelings for you,
…won’t go away
My heart yearns for you,
…with every beat
Refusing to accept,
…my ultimate defeat

In time I hope,
…you will see
Just how happy,
…we could be

"They didn't really let me out of the mental asylum, "per se'!" I just kind of kept walking one day."

Very nice write Dragoness, I really enjoyed the flow of it, and the storyline captured me as well. I could most certianly relate to it! Very nice!!

Excited to come home,
…and see signs of my dear
Even though,
…she’s no where near
E-Mail’s, and phone messages,
…I sift through to see
If there’s any notes,
…left there for me

Anticipation,
… “2nd week in a row!”
Waiting to see,
…if my angel will show
I open my e-mail,
…eager to see
What wonderful letter,
…she has written for me

Read the first paragraph,
…that was just fine
The second and third,
…my heart starts to bind
I guess I am not worth
…the time that we seeded
For her to appreciate
…How much she, was needed!

I saw you first,
on a summer's day
You fluttered by,
without delay
To work to work,
you had to be
Does she work,
here with me?

I knew you were special,
right away
Your love of life,
eclipsed the day
Drawn to you,
like a moth to a fire
Visions of you,
brought me desire

I made my first move,
in the walk-in cooler
That pickup line,
should have got me no further
From that,
our friendship grew
It wasn't soon,
until I fell in love with you

My love for you,
is growing strong
If I kept you,
would that be so wrong?
My love for you,
is bitter sweet
You can't give,
what I can't keep

Flutterby Butterfly,
I want to keep you near by
But with that,
you would wither and die
My love for you,
lives till this day
So flutterby Butterfly,
flutter away...
Until the next time you,
...flutterby my way

Ty R.

None of this,
...would I condone
Sitting upon,
...this dusty throne
Spilling feelings,
...into writing
Nothing left,
...that’s worth fighting

Slipping into a,
...depression slumber
Waiting for life,
...to call my number
I gladly opened,
...myself to thee
Obviously more,
...than you cared to see

Sadly I crack,
...another beer
And try to forget,
...why I’m here

My feelings for you
...are on the table.
Do you act on it?
...Are you able?
This next step,
...what comes with it
Not in the past,
...what’s in front of it

What do you think?
...With me on this?
To be closer to you,
...absolute bliss
The distance between us
...melts to thee.
My love for you
...is clear to me.

Both our lives
...are drawing closer
I give to you,
...my love,
my shoulder

My life I want to
...share with you
I can’t imagine
...a better thing to do
In my heart
...I know this too truly
I love you my darling! !
...Come be closer to me!

I liked this write very much. I can deffinatly relate to it. Thank you!!

“Time”

Time marches on,
as much as we would like to,
pinch it,
hold it back,
or just restrain it for a moment
It is unstoppable,
it moves on
Distance,....................... ................from the instance

Feelings fade into a warm bliss
The hurt and pain subside inside
...............................
.................To this I cry!

"Curiosity"

Two souls meeting,
to curiosity's fate
Thoughts of you,
...as I lie awake

Once undisturbed,
in nested slumber
My interest in you,
grows with wonder
Schoolboy feeling's,
when we first met
Your face, your smile,
...I'll not forget

Curiosity,
to the things unseen
What's to come,
what might be?
Down at the park,
sand on our feet
The playful looks,
...you gave to me

Your curiosity,
to that I'm thankful!
With out that,
...I'd never kissed an angel! !

Ty R.

The way I feel

To this,
…to this,
I must appeal
Save my heart,
I mustn't squeal
I'll claim the fifth,
to this ordeal

Iron bars,
or prison chains
Could not have got me,
to explain
Locked away,
deep inside
My feelings,
are mine,
and mine to hide

A relationship,
has come to be
Emotions for you,
none else to see
My heart for you,
is locked and keyed

The love you've shown,
beyond temptation
My love for you,
pure exhilaration!!
I gladly open,
myself to thee
And know you'd do,
the same for me

I guess that's why,
I've got to say
I am so grateful,
for feeling this way

Tygrr

To all, thank you for your kind comments. They are well reveived

Serenity

I’d lost my heart,
...but now I found it
Serenity begins,
...to melt around it
Lessons learned,
...in life’s game
A better man,
...I’ve became

Humbled by,
...my friends and peers
Never expected,
...in a million years
A wake up call,
...was so needed
No more hiding,
...feeling self-defeated

Though my crutches,
...I’ve always enjoyed
To them I no longer,
...remain employed

Tygrr

“Faithless”

Feeling as if,
my heart will explode
Nervously waiting,
...for the next episode

Lacking faith,
in which to repent
There is no God,
...I represent

Leaning on,
myself for salvation
Existentialism,
...of my own creation

With clenched heart,
I try not to fray
As I wander through,
...another day

Tygrr

Summer rain


Clouds whispering by,
on a warm summer day
The sky peacefully,
...turns from blue to grey
Thunder rolls,
in the distant hills
I feel the air,
...is growing still

Clouds engulfing,
the hills all around
From the west,
...there comes more sounds
Soon after that,
I see the first light
A flash in the pan,
...a lightning strike! !

Lightning and thunder,
drawing forward
A rain drop dashes,
...off my shoulder
Summer storms,
they’re like no other
Like old friends,
...and young lovers!

Standing here,
as it showers down

Warm summer rains,
alone, …
standing here

Tygrr Robertson

So much to do, ...so much to see
This once was a country,
...that used to be free
Speaking against,
...our government’s crimes
No one seriously takes the time

They chase the dollar, they chase the dime.
It’s time to stand up, and take the time
and plant a seed, ...and draw a line

From the mouths of our children,
...they has stolen

The Innocents'
...we strive so hard to feed
Voicing out,
doesn’t fill the need

Too much money,
is busily laundered
Our government seems,
...to have wandered

To this, to this,
is my dismay!
What the hell would,
Gandhi say?

To all the Wallflowers,
within my cry!
Ignore this world,
so long, ...goodbye! !

“My heart adores thee”

New love has formed
Paths ahead to be shared
Lives drawing closer
Are you scared?

My
...Heart
Adores
...Thee! !

To this I know
My soul,
...Aches for you.
My mind,
...Thinks of you.
My body,
...Waits for you

My heart,
...my darling
contains all this
...for you

This has already,
...Been given to you.

“Trapped within”

Unsuited for,
domestication
Only adding to,
my frustration
Trapped within,
the skin of this creature
Ever waiting, ...
for the next feature

Praised upon,
from a distance...

“Come closer”...

You’ll be my prey,
...quickly putting up resistance

Untamed heart,
...thunders my core
My spirit left,
cold and sore
Until I can shed,
the skin of this beast
Alone I’ll wander,
till my next feast
