Here are some of mine...
In My Dream
So swift I fly
Never fail never die
I'm the conqueror I'm the queen
Of my everlasting dream
I write the story of my life
The ending changes every night
On my journey I'm the pilot
Destiny unknown some new spot
There was a little girl who was very bright
She never tried to do anything right
There was a little girl who believed in herself
Her own value was her greatest wealth
There was a little girl with many a happy day
Spent doing things she loved in her own way
To society's expectations, should she conform?
To lose her self worth would be the norm
When she grows older who will she be?
I’m not sure, but I think the girl is me
To love and please oneself is a privilege of youth
As we mature we learn a different truth
To love and help others can be a unique pleasure
Why be ruled by time spent in leisure?
To go through life never lacking a need,
Is that the way to truly succeed?
Or does fulfillment come from sacrifice?
Working hard and paying the price
It’s hard to know when things fall in my lap
My head hurts from wondering, I guess I’ll take a nap
Do you feet hurt?!
God's gift to womankind
Who fed you that corny line
You must be angel?!
For yourself you don't think
Don't you know your lines stink
What's your sign?!
You must be joking
From your stench I'm quickly choking
Come here often?!
Never again to hear your tired
Recycled speech you filthy liar
are you a feminist?
idk i never thought about it. def not in a political way. actually i think im pretty traditional on gender relations, but tend to be wary of personal involvement myself.
also, i was trying to avoid posting more personal stuff until i got to know the crowd a little more.
thats cool. your poems are very good. enjoyable.
thanks! i have a ton, but dont show them around often. i tend to think they run to two categories: fanciful and dramatic. im not sure what others make of that.
Smiles that light up the night
Of my soul…I blush
Miles of feelings break through the sealing
Of my soul…I blush
Denials of truth expressions uncouth
Of my soul…I blush
3 Haikus on Closure
Away bared souls packed
Undeniable impact
Enduring friends pact
Memories sweetened
By the passage of some time
Rewriteable thoughts <-OK so REWRITEABLE is not actually a word – give me a break
Musing wonderful
On how the unexpected
Seems predictable
Destructive decisions bad choices
Listening to all the wrong voices
Telling you the wrong things to do
Why do you do this to you
Are you as smart as you look?
Or are those glasses a front?
Is your gaze into the distance pensive or vapid?
Nails all bitten to the quick
Fingers tap tap tapping
Are you as nervous as you look?
Your curves are impossible to hide
There must be a hundred ways to hold you
Are you as sexy as you look?
You posture is erect
And you appear unafraid of strangers
Are you as confident as you look?
Are you as happy as you look?
Your smile never stops
And you seem always to be dancing
With your wide eyes
And blush spreading like wild fire
Are you as innocent as you look?
Can anyone know you?
All these fragments of a being
Do you know yourself?
I feel you slipping, slipping through the fingers of my mind
Did I not hold you tight enough? I tried
You were unreplaceable
Now you are unembraceable
A connection once so thick
Evaporated like mist
I don’t know what to do
Except say good-bye to you
