Remember Me

July 18, 2008 at 9:19 pm (poetry)

Death comes for me one day

So I beg of you

Remember me

The woman who’ll be a girl at any age

One who could not not give

Optimistic to a fault

Someone who, though not always successful

Tried always to do the right thing

A beautiful creature inside and out

Who adored being the cause of someone’s smile

The woman who loved the world

Evermore

July 18, 2008 at 9:18 pm (poetry)

Overwhelming, prostrating
I feel you in my head
Obsessive, engulfing
You confiscate my heart
Flooding, drowning
You fill me up in kind
Intriguing, counfounding
I long to know your mind
Scrupulous, endearing
I need discern your core
Audacious, alluring
I crave you evermore

Sweet Solitude

July 18, 2008 at 9:18 pm (poetry)

Come to me sweet soitude

Take away all the attitude

Create for me an empty vessel

For me to slumber, for me to nestle

A place for me all on my own

I’ll sit there with no light shone

Contemplating upon my madness

Without feeling all the sadness

Looking back on times gone by

Thankful for the Lord on high

Charting out the coming course

Searching within to find the source

Oblivion

July 18, 2008 at 9:17 pm (poetry)

Take me to oblivion

Where there’s not even light

Bring me home into your arms

Hold me with all your might

Gather all the broken pieces

Unbreak me, make me right

This is what you do to me

When you hold me tight

True Love

July 18, 2008 at 9:16 pm (poetry)

I’ll spare us all the pain of lies

That love-sick idiots tend to spout

Whilst so afflicted

I give you rather unbridled truth

You’re not perfect we both know

Nor do I bode claim to such a title

But for all our little tendencies

The quirks we have adopted

I love you not in spite of them

Instead because of them

It’s made you who you’ve come to be

Neverland

July 18, 2008 at 9:16 pm (poetry)

Drag your haggard soul to me

For I shall lift you up

Bring forth your wayward thoughts to me

And I will snatch them up

I’ll take you away

I’ll kidnap you to Neverland

Where life is fun, love abundant

And all I need is you

I Await You

July 18, 2008 at 9:14 pm (poetry)

Before the clouds gave birth to a storm
Before darkness penetrates the light
Before the doors close forever
I will look into your eyes once more.
This silence is giving me a headache
Its waves are no longer soothing.
The unbearably sweet smell of eternity
Has made me ill again.
All my senses have bled together
My eyes, they feel your heat.
Heaven help me, I can’t tell
The dreamers from the dream.
Is isolation an emotion?
I’m feeling it now.
Millions of tiny, flaming needles
Tumbling down a velvet carpeted hall.
Memories on fingertips
Flesh that doesn’t bleed.
Hearts the beat on black or white
Never in between.
And hands that build cannot destroy
The walls that they have made.
Armor made of paper hearts
Protection from your rage.
Mourning filters through the cracks
And in a
Timeless
Placeless
Place
I await you.

Untitled poem

July 18, 2008 at 9:09 pm (poetry)

The rain slams down upon the ground
And all I think about is you
I walk outside to feel the life
Hearing the splashing of my shoe
As it falls I can feel it all
The pain I’ve wrought upon us two
Consuming me until I’m free
Freedom will come for I amĀ  true
