Poems written by *me*
Written by Nick Ervin
It's a feeling that noone can explain
A description that sounds lame
What can you tell someone?
When they laugh and turn their back around
They point the fingers and the vision clings
Because of knowing that you know things
What can be said, have any thoughts?
Is there a lesson to be taught
This world is sucky enough as it is
Why can I do this
I look into my mind and see these things
Knowing that you know things
I used to think that I knew what I needed to know
I had it figured out and so
Noone could take away my knowledge
But I was proven wrong and it pushed me to the edge
And I wobbled there just looking
Knowing that you know things
It's a scary thought by itself
And for some reason I don't allow myself
To reach out in the darkness and find a hand
I'm scared of being shot down, left there and
hearing the fat lady sing
Knowing that you know things
I'm waiting in the hole
Of eternal darkness alone
There's no light in sight
I just might pick a fight
With noone but myself and my happenings
Knowing that you know things
When the help comes along and reaches near
I wonder if its better to be left here
And suffer for the rest of my life
With nothing but my brain and rock as sharp as a knife
What happened to me and my seeings
All because of knowing that you know things.
It started with a small flame
grew into a love which was not a game.
Our love we thought, would last forever,
but in reality, we knew it could never.
Love letters, filled with words of joy
we clearly knew that love's not a toy.
Our young minds could not be told
that through the distance our love would not hold.
We knew it would be difficult
but we thought our love had no fault.
There's no doubt our love's not real
for it's true and that's how we feel.
"I'll always love you" is what you said
But how can I love with you in my head
while knowing that you are no longer mine
and still try to pass through the time?
Years from now when our lives are stable
maybe both of us will be more capable
to have a relationship that we can handle
and we can relight our love candle.
Now is not our time to be together
But please don't forget that I'll love you forever.
A tear fell as the time came
The time to say goodbye.
All I could think is that I love you and all the reasons why.
The words couldn't come out as I tried to speak,
As more tears fell from my rosey cheek.
I swallowed then said, "I have to say goodbye"
Then you tried to calm me down, but I began to cry.
The tears kept falling although I didn't care
I just wanted to hear you,
To see if you were there.
I didn't want this time to come and I wish it had not.
My heart felt extreme pain and my stomach was in a knot.
I'm going to miss our talks and I don't know what to do.
As I lay in bed each night I'll look into the night sky
And know you're sleeping safely too.
It's going to be difficult to do
since I already miss you!
Where there is love there is life,
and if I know what love is,
it is because of you.
I love you not only for who you are
but for what I am when I am with you.
Love does not consist of gazing at each other,
but in looking in the same direction.
Earth is the right place for love.
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
To love you is a choice,
a choice I make from moment to moment
The best choice I can make.
You learn to speak by speaking to run by running,
and just so you can learn to love, by loving.
Those who think to learn another way,
deceive themselves, for,
whoso loves,
believes the impossible.
This smile upon my face is there because of you.
This love in my heart has never felt so true.
When I look into your eyes true happiness is felt
As your smile gleams, my heart begins to melt.
The minutes spent with you are more precious than any.
Especially since the distance doesn't allow too many.
But no one said it would be simple,
loving you from a distance.
So I promise I won't let go and ruin this only chance.
I'll unconditionally love you forever,
that's promise I will always keep!
I woke up to a bluebird's song
Refreshed from a good night's rest.
I ate the breakfast my mother made
Was dressed and ready to look my best.
I took a walk to the sandy beach
Under the sun where the children played.
I greeted my love with a meaningful kiss
Together we walked, on the blanket we laid.
I told him the words of my loving heart
As we walked along hand in hand.
We talked for hours into the warm night
And wrestled around in the soft sand.
He walked the long way to my home
Through the flower fields of open space.
He kissed me softly in the moonlight
And I went to bed with a smile on my face.
The fresh smell of a summer's storm
sitting outside while the evening's still warm
streaks of lightening seen miles away
the sun is going in after a hot day
numerous clouds pass over my head
as I sit outside before I go to bed.
The moon rises as darkness falls,
lightening bugs twinkle as nightime calls.
rolling hills continue for miles afar
in the dark sky stands a solitary star.
I wish I may, I wish I might,
I wish my wish to come true tonight!
The smell of the air and the taste of the kiss
evolves around me in the evening bliss.
With this I call, the Passion of Love.
His strong hands are the safest place
to be held so close in a sweet embrace.
With this I name, the Passion of Love.
A tender kiss placed on the breast
as his heart is kept close to my chest.
In this I find, the Passion of Love.
I feel so alone and no one's there,
to listen to me say that no one cares.
The thoughts and fears erase from my mind,
and suddenly I seem as though I'm blind.
The world fades away as his body draws near.
As he opens my soul and removes the fear.
I deeply love him for which he may not know,
That I care so much and I'll never let go!
Please don't judge me by my face, by my religion or my race.
Please don't laugh at what I wear or how I look or do my hair.
Please look a little deeper-
Way down deep inside, and although you may not see it
I have a lot to hide.
Behind my clothes, the secrets lie
Behind my smile, I softly cry.
Please look a little deeper and maybe you will see
the lonely girl that lives inside me.
Please listen carefully to her-
She'll show that she's insecure.
Please try to be a friend to her and show her that you care.
Please just get to know her and maybe you will see
that if you just look deep enough you'll find the real me.
