Afternoon drive, so rushed yet slow.
I feel your warmth invading my soul.
The sound of chaotic cars and insidious alarms.
You chase away all the mess with just your charm.
Slowly fading, yet not done invading.
Your embrace takes away all that is degrading.
I smile and laugh as I fear what you will say.
For I know that night will always meet day,
And that your warmth will leave and my heart will bleed
because my love for the sun was more than just fun
It was the place in time and space
where I existed without a trace

Why is it only you?
Why you?
Even when I think of all the things I could have,
I think of you.
Why is it that it is only you?
Defying all that I know to be true.
I think of you.
Why is it that it is only you?
Defying all that I know to be true.
You stand higher than most,
but really you're just as lost as the rest.
Making my heart stop is really what you do best.
but really you're just as lost as the rest.
Making my heart stop is really what you do best.
I want you,
in my sheets, pulling my hair;
doing everything that makes me feel scared.
in my sheets, pulling my hair;
doing everything that makes me feel scared.
I need you,
to take me away into the night:
to wish together on stars that shine too bright.
to take me away into the night:
to wish together on stars that shine too bright.
I know me,
I want to reach for what cannot be mine.
Straying off paths with thin lines.
I want to reach for what cannot be mine.
Straying off paths with thin lines.
I wish I knew you.
You stand as if a god in a light too good to be true
but fall on the ground like a dog worn and abuse
You stand as if a god in a light too good to be true
but fall on the ground like a dog worn and abuse
Why is it only you?
A Thousand Days
A Thousand Days
For an eternity of false peace,
I had given the very essence of my life.
I cried and begged for the aching pain to cease
In my head I could only pray for the gentleness of a knife-
My soul remained intact but was shredded with every gust of wind.
Scared, broken, and abused, I clung to everyone like a lost kid.
I knew My love was not mine to give.
There was a point in where I realized it almost never existed.
For a thousand days I was angry,
I was angry- terrified of having nothing.
I cried and breathed for the need to feel something.
For a thousand days I prayed.
For a thousand more my heart would sway.
In those thousand days,
I had finally found that only the memory would stay.

When we were friends?
When we were friends
Do you remember all the days in the sun?
Do you remember all days of so much fun?
It was never meant to last,
but we laughed until we forgot our past.
We forged ties under hidden lines,
and cherished the time, believing that everything
was fine.
Did you know that I knew?
Did you know the pain I would go through
for you?
When we were friends,
our path was already pre-determined.
A soul contract waiting to be broken.
The ties between me and you,
were fading all too soon
Your soul was meant to soar,
and mine was aching to be adored.
I knew not of what love was or could be.
I reached my hands out waiting for you to
come to me.
Do you see the emptiness in my eyes?
Do you feel the pain from all the lies?
When we were friends,
your path had intertwined with mine.
It was only for a split second as I
realized that I was the one who was not fine.
All the memories are in the past.
I have forgiven and left everything to
settle in shattered glass.
When we were friends,
I realized that was our end.

Today's Poem #8
Today's Poem#8
Today is September 26, and the morning brings nothing, but reminders of lost sleep
It is 9:57am , and I wish it were already 8pm
I see the images of dreams almost forgotten
I hear the dark music filling me with words worth mentioning
I smell nothing in the air, my nose seems to be still asleep
I taste the cough drop in my mouth as it dissolves slowly
I wonder when I'll get off of work tonight
I want a day of rest
I need a day to just work on my homework without distractions
I have little time
I know its my own fault, and that I must deal with it on my own
Tomorrow will be another day, and it will different from today

Today is September 25, all is in the air
It is 9:13 am , not too early, not to late
I see the teachers rushing to prepare for the day
I hear music flowing softly through the air
I smell the distinct smell of onions, and garlic mixed together
I taste the bean, and cheese taco I had for breakfast
I wonder what work will be like tonight
I want another taco really bad
I need to eat healthier food
I have the means to do so, but I continue to put it off
I know I need to do it soon, but when will I find the will
Tomorrow will be another day of thoughts, and delayed ambitions

Today is Monday September 24, 2012
It is 9:16am , a time almost all divisible by the number three
I see the cars rushing outside, with no true honest destination in mind
I hear the music flooding my ears with peace
I smell the distinct smell of bubble gum escaping my mouth
I taste the flavors of a morning breakfast mixed with the gum
I wonder what my work will be like tomorrow
I want my body to heal, and for my voice to return to normal
I need a cure for the aches, and pains my body wields
I have water, and instructions to stretch
I know the instructions are just there to help
Tomorrow will be a day of work, and I will earn up to the job I have been given

Today is September 21, a friday like no other
It is 3:12pm
I see the children anticipating the end of school
I hear the cars outside honking, and people shouting through the traffic
I smell the fumes from the exhaust of cars, only I wish they didn't give off such fumes
I taste the dryness of my mouth
I wonder when is the last time I drank water
I want something cold to fill me with sensations of being calm, and collected
I need to worry about how I will deal with the anxiety of my job today
I have to go tonight, its my first job
I know that I have the courage to face whatever stands in front of me
Tomorrow will be another day of work, and I'll face it like I did the day before

Today is September 20, 2012
It is 3:40pm, a time I wish I was sleeping
I see my vision going blurry, and refocusing
I hear hear music playing softly in my earphones
I smell the scent of home, but I know I'm must return to reality
I taste the lunch I had hours before, it warms my body a little
I wonder why we humans need so much sleep
I want to sleep for eternity, but that's for the departed
I need more time
I have someone who make my world worth living
I know that my deprived sleep is my own fault
Tomorrow will be a Friday that will bring ease for the coming of the weekend

Portrait Poem #2 Water
I AM poem
I am exuberant, and caring
I wonder when the world will be cleanse
I hear the birds flying above me, searching for a home
I see humans destroying our homes, and designing a new image of fear
I want this world to revert back to where it started, from the beginning
I am exuberant, and caring
I pretend of one day walking along side the ones I give life to
I feel the touch of energy traveling through every organism that takes from me
I touch the air and embrace it, knowing we have been friends since our creation
I cry over the one's who forget where they came from
I am exuberant, and caring
I understand that know one hears me
I say one day I'll make them all hear my voice
I dream of better tomorrow under words of wisdom
I try to reach out those who seek comfort in me
I hope to change the mind of others

Daughter of the earth
Who needs, love, nurturing, energy
Who loves, my job, my friends, my purpose
Who sees, dawn to dusk, people, fishes
Who hates, ignorance, hatred, pride
Who fears, littering, waste, drought
Who dreams of a new world, less waste, time
Who has found poems of hope, dreams, love
Resident of the third planet from the sun

It's time for children to all go to bed
Rest is needed for every lil sleepy head
So put on your PJ's, and close your eyes
It's time to say goodnight to all fireflies
You played all day
And now the time has come to say
Goodnight to your friends
But make sure to make amends
Come on, let's count sheep all together
1,2,3, now that's better
Every sheep sigh's, for at last
Its time to say our goodbyes, and goodnight
It's time for children to all go to bed
Rest is needed for every lil sleepy head
So put on your PJ's, and close your eyes
It's time to say goodnight to all fireflies
You played all day
And now the time has come to say
Goodnight to your friends
But make sure to make amends
Come on, let's count sheep all together

Every sheep sigh's, for at last
Its time to say our goodbyes, and goodnight

Today is a September 19, 2012 , and all is quiet to me
It is 7:14am the morning has just begun, with the cold air sweeping in
I see the darkness of his jacket, and the morning light appearing beyond the distance
I hear his breaths surrounding me, carrying me into another world
I smell the early morning air so cold, unmoving, and the scent of leather fills my nose
I taste the lips of my beloved one once more
I wonder if he knows how much I feel for him inside
I want to tell him every thing that crosses my mind, but I hold my tongue
I need to concentrate more on my future, but for now I just see him
I have the knowledge to do more though its not what I desire
I know that the answers will present themselves eventually, but for now I'm lost
Tomorrow will be another day awaiting the next

Love Poem Upon awakening
Love Poem
Upon awakening
We met long ago in world so lost in its passions, and desires
Upon awakening I see your smile, striking the deepest part of my soul pulling me in
Upon awakening I feel your touch as warm as the awakening sun
Upon awakening I hear your breathing in sync with mine
Upon awakening I taste your lips once more afraid they will no longer linger on mine
Upon awakening I touch your face and hold you close to mine
We were disgusted by what we saw before us
Upon awakening you saw pain in the eyes of our neighbors
Upon awakening you felt my touch bring you back into reality
Upon awakening you heard my heart beating like a humming bird
Upon awakening you tasted the tears that had ran down my face moments before
Upon awakening you caressed my face, and got up to face the truth
We created a world of own, and held each other up to face what would be our new future
Upon awakening we saw love in our new world, and shared it with others
Upon awakening we felt the sun rays surround our souls, and rejoice
Upon awakening we heard the sound of birds singing songs of love
Upon awakening we tasted the foods that were hand grown from a ground now fertile
Upon awakening we held on to what made us create this world, love
We departed this world slowly, but not without saying our goodbyes first
Upon awakening our neighbors said goodbye with flowers, and presents
Upon awakening the world said goodbye giving us warmth before our depart
Upon awakening the birds sang a song, not out of sadness, but giving thanks
Upon awakening we tasted the foods we were gratefully given
Upon awakening I kissed you goodbye, and we departed together still in love as the day we first met

Today is September 18, a tuesday like any other
It is 9:40 am and I wish it was already another day
I see words lifting from their pages, and finding new homes in the mind of others
I hear the music flowing, escaping from my instructors computer, soothing our minds
I smell the sweet scents of another's late breakfast
I taste the remains of my breakfast from early in the morning
I wonder on whether the sun will remain dormant in it's sleep or awake, and scorch the earth upon its wake
I want some water to quench my thirst, and clear my conscious of it's desires
I need some caffeine to eliminate the feelings of falling into a deep slumber
I have only the music to keep me awake, and focused
I know that I should sleep more at night, but why sleep when I'll rest enough after death
Tomorrow will not be the same, and will be different from today, just as any day is

Just Because...
Just because I'm kind
Doesn't mean I'm weak
Doesn't mean I don't know how to stand up for myself
And doesn't mean I will back down
Just because I care
Doesn't mean I will baby you
Doesn't mean I'll always be by your side
Doesn't mean you can walk all over me
Just because I'm me
Doesn't mean you know me
Doesn't mean I always like you
Doesn't mean I'm the person you remember
Just because I'm kind
When is someone truly kind?
Does someone really ever honestly care for someone?
Just because I care, and I'm kind doesn't that mean you understand me?
I believe we don't even understand ourselves.
