Poetry

Here are some songs and poetry I have written.

Without
I wish I could have told you
and whispered from my heart
my love for that tender laugh
and your smile - a piece of art.
They spread lies about your past
and I believed them all.
My heart crumpled like a piece of trash
and my world began to fall.
I miss you twirling my hair,
and making me laugh & smile.
The trembling first kiss
that literally drove me wild.
I miss your soft hands
that would intertwine with mine
and the soft soothing voice
that would put ease to my mind.
It all seemed like a dream
of course too good to be true.
But I'd rather have eternal nightmares
than another night without you.
I don't know what my point is
or what I'm trying to ask -
I just wanted you to know
that this will be my task :
I will love you til the day I die
And then even a little more.
I don't care what they have to say
I just want my heart to soar.
You were the kindest I could ask for
the proof that chivalry's not dead -
I just became so confused
I would lay awake at night in bed.
Every time I see your face
and we say not a single word -
I remember how it used to be
and my heart takes flight like a bird.
I don't want to say goodbye
but I don't know what else to say -
You see I can't see what you're feeling
and my heart's growing stronger by the day.
So until we know what we want from life
And I know my heart inside out
I'm not going to beg and plead with you
Just know that it's you I can't live without.
a new nightmare
in darkness she lies
with demons surrounding
feeling hopeless she weeps
tears that are unheard
her heart is racing
as her mind is pounding
hellish thoughts that she wishes
would bring her
to an end.
her cries are penetrating
as she creates her desperate pleas
that go unnoticed.
people pass her by
not caring to hold out a hand
but as soon as someone
tries to mend her heart
she assumes they are just another...
another someone to break her heart
another someone to tell a lie
another someone to
try to love her.
but she won't let them.
so she wraps herself up
every night
in a tight little ball
crying herself to sleep.
just so she can continue
to dream her constant nightmares
that she will never fully wake from
because every day
is a new nightmare.
Sometimes.
Sometimes I wish I were blind,
So that I wouldn't have to gaze
into your sparkling sapphire eyes.
Sometimes I wish I were deaf,
So my heart wouldn't melt
at the sound of your voice.
Sometimes I wish I were mute,
So then I would have a good reason
to be speechless.
Sometimes I wish I weren't here,
So that my life wouldn't have become tangled
by playing this game of strategy
they call love.
Sometimes I feel that everything...
every tear, every painful word, and every heart-breaking moment
is completely worth it.
Even if you never
knew
my
heart.
I Love You
My thoughts wander back to the time
When my eyes first saw your smile
And I think of how God could have created
Such a perfect creature as you.
I longed to whisper sweet somethings in your ear
And to tell you of my love,
But fear was holding my heart back,
Trying to protect me from
The pain of a heartbreak.
But I sucked in my courage,
And let my heart fly,
Just to tell you that
I love you .
I love you
More than the stars in the heavens
The flowers in the fields
And even more than the sweet smiles on children’s faces.
More than a hug when I’m feeling down
And even more than a dream filled with
Good wishes...
I love you.
You hold my hand and gaze at me
With eyes so full of love,
Yet I can’t believe nor understand
How a prince like you
Could give you heart to me.
I hope that this fairy tale never ends
Because you’re my knight in shining armor.
You pick me up when I fall down
And when I feel my worst.
I love you
More than the stars in the heavens
The flowers in the fields
And even more than the sweet smiles on children’s faces.
More than a hug when I’m feeling down
And even more than a dream filled with
Good wishes...
I love you.
I
Love
You.
No Straight Lines
Unknowingly being chased through a labyrinth
Not knowing if the end is there
Not knowing whether to go on in hope
Repetitive signals pointing in different directions
In confusing directions.
So many distracting observations
Yet inevitable thoughts
So many objects to bring to a halt.
They could either stop you or bend your thoughts.
Is it better to be stopped or bent ?
Angel of Mine
You're my angel My one and only star
That I wish would guide me
Straight to your heart.
And when you hold my hand
and whisper in my ear
I cannot help but wonder
How my life would be
Without you right here.
The Devil's Dance
I'm confused by the way I am.
My thoughts never seem just
And my heart can appear cold.
I am seen as a bubbly blonde
With sparkling sapphire eyes,
But what lays deep inside me
Would even frighten the devil;
Or rather make him rejoice.
The "If" Barrier of Love
My heart would melt if he held me
and I would love it.
My lips would tingle if he kissed me
and I would love it.
My legs would lock if he danced with me
and I would love it.
My mind would jumble if he said he loved me
and I would love it.
I use the word would because it would
never happen.
I use the would if because I know it
won't happen.
Katie Lynne
There is only one person I can think of
That has thoroughly touched my heart
That has given me another reason to live
and has truly loved me
for who I am inside.
I can remember she and I laughing
at endless nothings that meant something
and inside jokes
that only our twisted minds could comprehend.
But then my face saddens
and my heart grows cold
When I recall the last time we laughed
Was the first time we cried.
Untitled 1
Just when my heart could have sunk no deeper
It seemed he found a way to plunge it to a new depth.
Just when a needful prayer to put my heart to ease was whispered
It seemed he found a way to make God deaf to my pleas.
When I questioned if I were to have dreams while I slumbered
He found a way to give me endless nightmares.
He shattered my hopes and gave me fears.
He broke my wishes and kept my dreams.
He tore my love and granted me tears.
Untitled 2
My lips are the portals of heaven and hell;
One gate cannot be opened without the other.
So why did I let him know ?
Why did I show my weakness
and give him my heart ?
He only took the remaining pieces of it
and threw them to the air
Just to amuse himself
like they were confetti.
Untitled 3 (thinking of the title to be "Again")
I wish I could tell you how it felt -
knuckles and fists
leaping onto my face like rabid dogs
a face of amusement reflecting my face of terror
the heels of hardened shoes
grounding into my side like a raging stampede
a face of amusement reflecting my face of terror
a pointed, kicking, maddening knee
jabbing into my back like a sharpened sword
a face of amusement reflecting my face of terror
a face so unearthly-
a beast raging from underneath
::sigh::
then it was over
he smiled
he kissed me
a kiss of soon death?
::sigh::
But, it was over.
until he felt the desire
to show me his love
again.
