It would prolly be cheating if you already have a poem about this huh? Since it wasn't off the top of your head? so I won't participate with this topic.

Loss

Last night as I was ooking up at the stars
A tear ran down my cheek
As I compared you to the Northern Star
Along with each reason why
I wondered why you had to die
You made me laugh, you made me cry
But most of all deep down you made me smile inside and out
With undeniable reasons
I am who I am because of you
You told me not to cry and be sad
Not knowing that you had saved the very best for last
Without you here by my side
It is like I am not really living
I wont stop loving you
Not for what it is worth
You made me believe in something far greater than I ever imagined
That something was me.

Loss
He was beautiful.
His eyes were great diamonds
Or great things of sea
Either way, it was easy to get lost in them

He stood by my door
"Are you ready?"
I let go of her hand and walked
We walked and walked and walked
A silent condescending tone
It all came over us
Quietly
Softly
I let go.

I watched them weep
There was no going back
I couldn't jump into their arms
Kiss his lips
All human feeling was gone
I floated past them
Knowing
Praying they would get over me
And forgive him for their loss.

Hope

I hope
That we all can cope.
Have optimism,
In the face of pessimism.
Seeing the ray of light,
and know it's worth fighting this fight.
When all else fails,
set your sails.
towards your one true goal,
because you'll always know.
That everything will be alright.
That you might actually win this fight.

I don't really like mine either, next topic: loss

Life and Death

There in the hospital bed he layed ready to die,
I couldn't help but stand there and cry,
I heard a tap at the door,
And I knew the time had come as my eyes stayed on the floor,
I wasn't ready to let go of him,
"Good-bye and rest in peace," I said to Tim.
I gave him one final kiss
To end this bittersweet bliss,
In like a lion the nurses came,
And out like a candle went my heart's only flame.

that sucks. the next one should be about Hope.

Chaos. i think that was the best one so far!

apologies, i have writers block. so i'm afraid i'll have to skip myself!

Shallow

She's beautiful, she's amazing.
she has thoughts beyond her years.
Her spirit soared like a bird
leaving behind a trail of tears.
her laugh bubbled like a waterfall,
and her smile glistened like the shining sun's reflection
on the ocean.
and you thought you knew her.
you didnt look beneath the surface.

crap that sucked. next topic: life and death

WAR
It was cast in stone.
Everyone could feel it coming
Taste it's horrid stench.
We watched in momentous pity
A tv sat in every room
People gathered around it
The 1950's reborn.
We watched in sheer horror
Every move
Every sound
Every breath
Of the lost
The wounded
The dying.
There was no help for the dead.
The towers crashed down.
With it went all human thought
As human emotion took over.
The President spoke calmly
Rationally
Comforting
And like that it happened.
One bomb.
Two bombs.
Three bombs.
All in a blink of an eye
And then it was over
But for them
For them it was just beginning.

Yikes. i'm going to embarass myself.

lost love

it was perfect
nothing came close to the feeling
i could fly, i could soar, i could dream
because he loved me
i was invincable with his love
nothing came close to me before he struck it down
then it was gone, sweet demise
just out of my grasp my fingers felt nothing but pain
emotionless and hard, all i could feel was the cold
the sun went down, the clouds were grey
the birds stopped to sing, the warmth turned to cold
when love leaves your grasp, leave the grasp of love

wow that was sad, i'm on a sugar high, what can i say.

Betrayal

I saw her
she smiled I didnt understand
she took me by the hand and spoke to me
I didnt know her
I thought she was my friend
We walked
how far we walked I dont know
but we glided on the floor
and we danced.
I didnt know her
I thought she was my friend
she took me to a fountain
a bubbling blissful fountain
and we laughed
I didnt know her
I thought she was my friend.
The fountain broke: the water was gone.
The dancing stopped: the movement died.
The talking ceased: there was only a cold silence.
the smile changed: it was now a frown.
The darkness trapped me, and the cold evelopped me.
I didnt know her
I thought she was my friend

man that sux but next topic: Lost love

Partying
You said you would be there
And I listened to you
I saw you sneak into the room
A quick flash of blue
What you didn't seem to understand
Is that it's what you do
This party is the end
That's it; I'm through

You always tell the jokes
And the people gather round
You never stop and see
My face bears a frown
I don't know why I come
To feel part of the ground
It's you who does this to me
Without making a sound

And yet once again
A party's going on
I start to leave--
I won't be gone long
You catch me leaving
And sing you're calm song
I don't know what to do
This party's all wrong

(I HOPE this has to do with partying...)
