Right Here

I'm a city boy looking for a country girl
But I've searched all over the world
Who would have thought you were right here
When I thought I had looked everywhere

You never know what you have until it's gone
I was lucky I never waited that long
I never realized how much you meant to me
Until you were about to leave the country

I drove to the airport to convince you to stay
You had gone so far there seemed to be no way
I grabbed your arm to stop you from going through
I kissed your lips and I told you I loved you

You stood in silence and waited a while
When you turned around you had a huge smile
The words you've waited for finally came
Gazing into my eyes you told me you felt the same

I had traveled all around the world
Looking for that one special girl
All of them seemed so wrong
But you were right here.. all along

Randy,
I appreciate the poem but it can't be considered for
the competition here because only people who won auditions
last night can post poems here. Please post your poem
on American Poet Second Stage. You have a real chance
of winning there because hardly anyone has posted there.
The second stage title is up for grabs and the winner there
takes on the winner here for the title tomorrow.

Kitty's Dreams
I so quietly await your lonely fall
,,,hear my call.........................M.

I hear your call
as through the night I fly
my kitty along beside me,we try,
I see you waiting,
I feel your pain ,
a beacon to thee,
it guides me,
I weep for you ,
my tender soul,
I wish to take your pain
for in your dreams,
I'll always be ,
to you my kitty shall guide me. *her words*

As I Flew,through my rhyme of Dreams,
we felt unfolding search,Sweet Theams,
Like th' Eagle,on his perch,we seak Dreams,
Flying the valley,far beolw,
my spirit eyes do show,

Lost Souls who look for Love,
Lost Love,looking for Souls to Love,
Givers,Takers,Dreamers and Fakers,
My Spirit Brothers Know,They're Soul Makers,

This rhyme was meant as a Tale of Dreams,
an Intruder,was only Ruder,
as any Intrusion as is known,
My Dream Story,is not his worry,
may be Windy,but he broke my story,
if he don't minds,stay from my rhymes,
please give me time to get on with my story,,,(Contd.)

Confusion in my world,didn't mean to be a liar
Confusion for the children,I just wanna get higher
Confusing to the people,but what have they done
Confusing to myself now,cause I am the one

In the dark,underneath the stairs
A world of excitement,a world of beware
The master is watching,the slave has begun
she's under my spell,cause I am the one

She talks to me quiet,can't see her face
a time will come,a time will be replaced
The time is getting older but the light is new
The dark is forever,who the fuck are you

World of confusion,world of the night
pleasures fall upon us but not in the light
I am here forever,I am here to stay
I am there in the night,lost in the day.

-My Oath To You-

When a soul is made in the heavens above
It is made with two halves
Sent down to this Earth seperately
It journeys to find its other half
Sometimes successfully
Sometimes not
It is a true gift from the heavens above
When the soul finds its other half

You are my other half
Completing my soul
Making me whole
Giving me the gift of love daily

As the sands of time pass
Grain by grain
I am by your side
This is my oath to you

When the waters rage
Pushing aside and scattering all the other grains of sand
I will steadfastly remain by your side
This is my oath to you

I give to you my lifes blood
Completing the circle
This is my oath to you

I give my heart my soul
To you and no other
I pledge my love to you on this day
This is my oath to you

From this day forward
Till the sands of time run through its course
This is my oath to you.

**Written for my dear friends Al& Pam for thier blood ceremony

Kity's Dreams(contd.)
Lonely Soul

My Dreams of Love True,
for Lonely me and You,
are th' way to my Heart True,
if you be True,
and follow this Dream through,
You just may find True Me for You,
and this was my Dreams story for You.......M.

I know you wrote your rhymes to me
and to them I was true
I did seek thee out within my dream
following my kitty along the way
I found another
this I told to thee
in the beginning true
a whore I have never been
to have you say this wounds me deep
I never lied or tried to mislead
I am more sorry than you can know
I miss our dance of poetry
In dreams I seek you my tender soul
I only hope someday.......................*her words*

I did not call you names my Dear,
you may have me mis-read,I fear,

What I said,in my poem to you last,
was that I had found You my True at last,
to him who broke into my story,
his ways were what was "Whorey"...
he did not wait,he made it late,
he broke my Dreams Tell,
broke my Spirits Dream Spell,

Just had to go again,to squeeze it in,
and finish my Dreams story,
no hurt was meant for you,
I just wrote him out of our story,
Beware this Jackel,
who intrudes our Dreams,
he may be not, what he seems,

to True You I beg,
no I do not pull your leg,
my only hopes and dreams for you,
ring from my True Heart to YOU,
I seek you, in my dream,for you,
by our stream,we share our dream,
to enfold into your Loving Arms,
Love and Passion,are my Lucky Charms,
I have no wish to do you Harms,
I only wish to be in your Sweet Arms

I am sorry,your heart is torn,
without you near,I feel forelorn,
please hold me tight,Love Me Tonight,
Feel our new Love, be True as is New Born,
because without you near my Dear,
My Hearts Dream is Truely Torn,my Dear.............M.

-Forever Lost-

The ancient ones speak of the prophecies
Yet I see no signs of what is to come
Wandering forever lost among the ruins of my people
Outlasting them all
The ancient ones speak of the child to come
Yet I see no woman with child
All that is left ...the only one
Me...
Alone and wandering through the ruins of my people
The ancient ones speak of the dead arising
Yet I see no one, nothing but my own reflection in the small pools of
rain
Wandering forever lost among the ruins of my people
Outlasting them all
All that is left.. the only one
Me...
I am not the prophecy they speak of
I am not the woman with child they speak of
I am not the dead arising,how can I when I have never died Alone,
forever lost, wandering through the ruins of time forgotten.....
A light burns for others
In hopes that I am really not alone
Look out, seek me
I cannot be all thats left..
I cannot be alone.........

The light is coming right through
these walls are holding me
The bars which lock me in now,are
which through I can see

I don't know why they're coming,
they could be coming for me
I don't know what I've done,I don't know
how to be

A sudden flash is blinding me
I look into the light
I can see the door opening,they can see
my fright


"Walking behind us,they cannot see or hear us cry
Talking to Jesus,I am not afraid to die/
What did I tell you,I am the one
My secrets will sell you,just look at what I've done


In here I was the master,my servants they did try
to keep me from this night..the night I'm gonna die
They are leading me away,walking down the hall
following the priest,the demons voices call

~Blood Destiny~

Bound by blood
Bound by eternity
Bound by love
The blood makes us one
You are my destiny
My eternal destiny

Bound by blood
Bound by eternity
Bound by love
The kiss of death
So sweet
So vile
So final

Final for whom?

The kiss of death
So sweet
So vile
So alive

Bound by the kiss of death
Bound by the blood of life
The blood makes us one
Your blood is mine
My blood is yours

I made you
You made me
We are one

Together we feed from the mortal scum
Together we sleep in the darkest caves
Together we kill in the name of life

Bound By Blood
Bound By Eternity
Bound By Love

LETTING GO

Some things grab ahold of us-
It seems they wont let go.
Feelings can torture us
Even tho it may not show.

Cigarettes destroy our bodies
Drugs destroy our minds;
Predjudice separates us,
All into different kinds.

Political differences-
On which very few agree,
Can turn casual conversation
Into a heated frenzy.

The kind of house we live in
The kind of cars we drive,
Even the depths we go thru
Just trying to survive.

Can all make us prisoners
And its hard to enjoy life
Leading to health problems
Rooted in bitterness and strife.

Theres is one thing Ive learned
Its something we all know-
It is easier said than done
to let some of these things go.

So just turn to your neighbor
Your friend, brother or wife-
If you peel the surface off,
We're all the same inside.

When someone is less than kind,
As we all can sometimes do,
Just remember we all have things
We must let go of too.

Sorry I didnt mean to post that one again.(oops)\
Copy and paste boo boo

~Angelic Freedom~

Her soft laughter fills the air
I cannot see her
Yet I know she is here

Taunting voices from the past
Angry feelings become unleashed
Seething rage fills my heart

Her soft laughter fills my ears
Calming my rage
Soft whispers of comfort fill my soul

Laugh it away says she
Let them think they won
Let them think they own you

Close your eyes
Look for the key
When you find the key
You will find me

Salvation and peace
is what you need
I am the key
to what you need

Seek me and you shall be free

**Dedicated to my Momma, I miss you more and more each day

Green I love the new pic, you are absolutely beautiful!!

Thanks CCP figured it was time for a change..

This is the one I was trying to post when I boo boo'd....


Toxic Lips

Her mouth writes checks her ass cant cash,
She says things that she cannot take back-
She’s told so many lies her life is a mess;
There are holes in her heart she can’t patch.

She wakes up hung over and broke,
They invite her but don’t want her to stay;
She uses language like a sailor on leave
And she tells herself its all ok.

The men all want her, but just for awhile-
The women all think she’s a whore.
But that was before all the poisonous lies
Took the future she had aimed for.

They all think that they’re better than her,
With their condescending stares thru the glass;
Riding by in their big fancy cars-
Looking down on her as they pass.

So she walks home to her hole in the wall-
Gathering junkies numbers as tips;
Dreaming of all the visions she had-
Before being destroyed by their toxic lips.

Kitty's Dreams (last night)


a whore he was not
to blame him is unfair
lay it where it truly belongs
at my feet i do despair
he never knew of your true feelings
i knew them not as well
i never meant to hurt you dear
my dreamer my friend
i am the whore of this i'm sure
i loved him before i knew
through your words this i realized
my kitty to you both he led
my love my soul mate
and my poet my gentle dreamer.......*her words*

Blame was not my game,
I was only trying to tell my story,
please forget,
that I ever used such an ugly verse,or word,
was not the intent of this verse you heard,
my flight to find you,all my might to find you,
my words don't bind you,my Lonely wish,is True You........M.

Please do not weap little one,for you did not know,
it was I in your spirits dreams that I did show,
th ONE for you on this plane,as you grow,
and the one who flies the night sky,
your heart was sweet to me,I cannot deny,
and my cat brother,only begs for me to try,
he calls to you,each time you dream,
he's th one who awaits you by our lil'stream,
begging for your lonely soul,
to take my hand in yours,and dream,lil' one,Dream,
you have a skeptic mind, and we all know this is good,
for if you do not question,,, who is good?
continue with your mortal man if you dare,
allow his fingers thru your hair,
and then when your next dreams come,
you will see me stamding strong in there,
for only then will you know,
where your true path leads you now,
as I stand sentry to spirits glow,
for you I give this gift,for you do I seek,
not just for th lonely,nor for th' weak,
you may see me in this world,
but my soul is only for those lonely,
and wondering hearts,and for your love only.......M.

My final entry...Good luck to my fellow poets

-My Flame-


simmering beneath the surface of me
is a deep running passion
that so few see
fear and loathing hold it back

rejection, pure hatred have kept it locked away from the world
only when I think of you does my true passion rise to the surface
smiling and laughing
pure joy and elation
you are the flame that brings forth the boiling passion within me
I fear nothing with you by my side
I loather no more, you teach me love and salvation
No longer do I feel rejection
No longer do I feel hated
For you, my flame, my friend have brought life new meaning...

The Tortured Mans Guide To The Inadequacies Of Life

Right now, in the morning..
Right now, before the whole thing began..
Before it...
Before the flicker...
Beyond the desire..
Beyond all the conclusions to the unfit facts
they pale by..

I can face madness all alone or in scores,
Like legion in the desert..
Shaping the only means to an end necessary
For the benefit of all..

I was young like you once, inescapably naive
Given to flightiness and indecision..
Held abstract and thought like the cherub on the wing..

Wings...necessary to fly...
Wings...necessary to fly away...
Please, is it necessary to die today??
Why is it necessary to die anyway??

Trapped in interkarmic lace
My own worst enemy, my only best friend..
My own worst enemy, my only best friend..
My own cosmic adversary, my own comic end..
A necessary means to a necessary end
A necessary means to a necessary....END WILL

My hat goes off to all of you.... so much emotion in these poems.
Judges have thier work cut out ;) Nicely done!

CHECK PLEASE??

If but for a moment
huddle close and gather
what wisdom if any you can from
what is to pass...
I see ahead of us a concrete jungle.
Steel beams crossing a wasted expanse.
Motes of irradiated dust swirling
against a glowing horizon.
A piteous world this where we have
destroyed ourselves for what we lack,
self control, the ability to truly love.
Debating collectively under a technicolor sky
the possibility of oblivion and the
improbability of time..
A motion to disturb.
Emotion to distress the population..
A people held under duress..
Death without parole..
In those vanished eyes I saw a hunger
spilt upon th table of God..
A veritable feast of laughter
or is it madness??
The two now one and the same..
So finger us now for crimes too soon commited.
Our punishment decided for ourselves,
over burnt toast and curdled milk..
Overlooked by our impatient waiter.....FATE... WILL

Okay...Mikey...whats this Trilogy with your Kitty...I,ve already used up
all my ice packs and advil, please don,t make me send out for more.
