Summer Fled by Will

Tue 10/03/06 01:02 PM
Summer fled before my footsteps
Like night from coming dawn
Her hair trailed out behind her
As autumns baleful song
Winter fell as rustling leaves
In the darkest woods
Covering all of natures needs
Like a lover should
By spring my steps grew heavy
My feet turned red with rust
I was shackled to the memory
Of what became of us
Cold time it ticked and
Time it tocked as
Heaven passed us by
Still when I'm in the present TENSE
I stop and wonder why
See the book blow in the wind and
Try to mark the turniing page
As seasons change with all contempt
While I am still locked in this cage
All these thing ran through my head
I tried to give chase
But Summer Fled... WILL

My Desire/BY Sweetcountrygirl

My body is filled with an all consuming fire
I yearn to feel your touch
I encourage the desire
Oh so much
Thoughts of you resuming your life without me
fill me with rage and jealousy
you are not destined to be alone,
we are one
come and take my hand
your heart I will clutch onto
I will not crush you
I'll not leave you in the mulch and mire
I wont tear you as the barbed wire
I may not have the courage to say "I Love You",
so listen closely to what I tell you
through these words of poetry
my heart is bare for all to see
a glimpse into our destiny
I am filled with desire
come and fan the flames burning higher
higher than I've ever dreamed
need for you tears through me
I am torn inside out

How many times have I asked myself "WHY?"
It doesn't matter cuz eventually I start to cry.

How many times have I thought about doin somethin?
It doesn't matter cuz I just end up doin nothin.

How many thoughts of death echo through my brain?
It doesn't matter cuz they'd just label me as insane.

How many people do I think that I can help today?
It doesn't matter cuz it doesn't take the pain away.

How many people point and laugh and try to ridicule me?
It doesn't matter cuz those stupid people never rule me.

How many times will I make changes in my life?
It doesn't matter cuz its just a pointless sacrifice.

How many times will I want to take a green bud hit?
It doesn't matter cuz you're still a f*ckin lunatic.

How many people are trapped up inside my head?
It doesn't matter cuz eventually they'll all be dead.

How many drugs will help me keep my sanity intact?
It doesn't matter cuz the future's painted all black.

The Mirror/By Chubbycherubpoet

Fri 10/27/06 01:20 PM
I stand before the mirror
Trying to see
The angel that is trapped deep inside me
So many say they see he shining out from my eyes
All I see is the sadness that resides

I stand before the mirror
Trying to see
The beauty that is deep within me
So many say it shines from my personality
All I see is the insanity

The mirror cracks
Crumbling to the floor
Shattered by my fist
I can see no more

Blood covered shards
Laying in a discared heap
This is all I see of me

Dream Spell
CCP one of her best.


Lay down on the soft bed
Close your eyes
Let the days worries drift way from your head
Breathe to relax
Let the days tensions flow from your body
Let yourself drift away
Float upon a cloud
Shh now lets not be loud
Thats it now
Drift away
Let the dreams take you
Far far away
Dream of times past
Dream of times yet to come
Slip silently into your fantasies realm
Hush now fear nothing
In the dreamland you are safe
In the dreamland you reign
Hush now my love
Angels come from above
Guiding you tenderly
Rocking you gently
Singing soft tunes
For your ears only
Whispering you are never lonely
Come with me now my dearest
We shall fly the sky
Flitting to and fro
Shhh dream sweetly now my love
For when you wake
I will be by your side
As I am in your dreams
The day we will face
Two hands holding tightly
Side by side
Nothing can divide us
Nothing can conquer us
United in love and dreams
Everything is as it seems

JustBE by SCG
A new aquaintance
is what you are
yet familiar from afar
through other friends
near and dear
brought us together
and here we are
You helped me through hard times
thick and thin
when i thought i'd not go on
You made me laugh when I wanted to cry
and when I cried
offered your shoulder
and refused to let me hide
now here I abide
in your good graces
you'd travel the world for me
it seems
It's not for me to understand
but just accept it for what it is
I'll take your hand
if you keep reaching
and I'll give you all I can
above and beyond
I want to be a true friend

Another Angel....by.....michael

As the Angels sing,Bells do ring,
forever within our hearts to sing,
Angels watch over our human being,
as our lonely souls true seeing,
angels fly to protect our fleeing,
as we try to forget sad feeling,
forever in our hearts appealing,
forever in your love revealing,
give us now your truest song,
help us grow and not do wrong,
GO WITH GOD AND RING THESE BELLS,
SWEETEST WISHES FROM YOUR WELLS,
SOFT SWEET KISSES FROM YOUR BELLS.....Lonely Soul

Friends......by Txsgirl

Friends come to us like strangers in the night
They bring with them sunshine that is so bright
At times they seem to just appear out of no where.
They touch our hearts and souls and are so dear.
There smiles and words come across so vey clear.
Every morning, noon and night they make our day.
The laughter they bring with them they send our way.
But for some reason before we even have time to blink.
As we look for there name its gone we can only think.
Was it something that I did? No, that I do not believe.
At times there is no reason,It was just time for them to leave.
Friendship is something you give like a special gift.
We strive for it and cherish it for the rest of our life.
Some how they have managed to touch your heart to the soul.
When they leave it leaves dark hole that burns like coal.
But, don't let it bring a dark shadow to your day.
Remember they did make you smile and this is just there way.
At times they could bring and instant smile to your face.
They felt as if they were home, finally they found a place.
To be with friends so far away and yet so very near.
But then there comes a time to leave even those so very dear.
As we go through life we look back and wonder why?
Did they have to go, and why did they not even say bye.
Life it but a journey a road we all will travel down each day.
We never know what we will find or what might come our way.
Never forget the ones that cross our path each time.
For they make our hearts shine like a brand new dime.
So when the day comes do not bring a frown to your face.
Just a smile and to know they have found a new place.

Your pain I felt
with only a few words
I understood how bad it felt
for I was going trough the same
I will never forget your words
words that made me understand
how powerfull is the love you felt.
he was gone, and in your heart he stayed
for that was real love
the love you felt.
now I just pray to the lord
to take a look in to your heart
and see how strong is the love
the love you felt.
now there is no more pain
and no more hurt
for now you are with him
telling him the pain you felt.
hugging and kissing and telling
him how much you missed him
now your together telling
eachother the love you felt.

WATERFALL - by Jimi366

I couldn't believe it when I heard it.
Couldn't believe that you said it.
My heart beats just knowing.
I am yours for the taking.
Girl there's so much
I wanna do with you.
There are places I
wanna take your loving soul.
I wanna walk along the beach,
get lost in some city streets.
I wanna lay in a field with you
and look into the starry sky.
Can I steal a kiss or two?
I know you feel the same way too.
Let's make love in the rain,
let the clouds be our waterfall.
Let's dry off and do it again.
We can go the whole night long.
Ever since I heard that you loved me.
All these things I just think about.
You drive me crazy.
I wanna love you out loud!

Buffalo Spirit

I stand above the plain of many grasses
Seeking out my spirit brother
You feed my people
You give us shelter
I hunt and only take what I need
Leaving many of your women and young
To carry on so I may hunt again another day.
I am old now
I stand above the plain of many grasses
Singing my death song
Seeking out my spirit brother
White man has come
Hunting you until there are no more
Leaving and wasting precious food to this people,
I call to you now my spirit brother
Buffalo come to me now and take this old man to the spirit world,
Where the people will know no hunger
Where the people will know no violence
Protect us now in the spirit world my spirit brother,
I stand above the plains of many grasses,
Singing our death song....
