love

love is great
love is good
well go on a date
and well be in a good mood

Differance

Their was ups and downs
Simles and frowns
It was cold and hot
But our gold was never bought
Our relationship would stick like glue
And we would be given clue

Lonely at Sea

Lonely At Sea

He swims in murky shadows
Of ocean deeply blue
While searching for a stranger
And for a love that’s true

He croons sweet songs of passion
To lure his maiden fair
Hoping that she will answer
To save his soul from cold despair

His life lived in isolation
Too many moons alone
His heart grows cold and bitter
Withering on his lonesome throne

So he journeys across the oceans
A thousand miles of briny deep
Wandering shore to shore
For the soul he plans to keep

He calls out in desperation
And he longs for the reply
But the night is deadly silent
And no voice returns his cry

His ballad soon turns to anger
Wrought with rage of love denied
And to all who risk a passage
Shall feel the fury of his tide

When the sea stirs above him
Who dares to choose this path?
To interrupt the solitude
Is sure to know his wrath

He rushes to the surface
Arms onward to the sky
Churning clouds of boiling anger
Howling wind resound his cry

To ships that risk these waters
He’ll cast upon great waves
To send them crashing downward
Into their watery grave

His heart has turned to stone
And his soul no longer cares
Now all who chance a meeting
Will share in his despair

Sonnet 264

Sonnet 264

I played with her, this stranger I had found
drifting as I was in the circus crowd.
Within an hour she looked up and glowed,
to say I had her puppy in my pound.

It made me shudder, though I was also proud.
She was a pretty specimen, a thing
I now possessed. It made my innards sing.
From then on I became a little loud.

This is no ballad. We found our lovers’ lair
in nearby squalor at the edge of glare.
Her frightened thighs were chilly, wet with smell.
I pitied her poor garments where they fell.

Somewhere along the way while I was in her,
I realized I was the only sinner.

Edward Wright Haile

Betrayed

My last night as a full-time child
I didn't want to sleep, for fear of
Waking up in a rustle of too-crisp sheets
And a creak of inadequate bedsprings
With a lightly snoring virtual stranger eight feet away.
And also I didn't want it to be tomorrow,
Because then it would be time to do what
I've denied for three weeks of subsistence
And oblivion--ignoring is bliss.
And I saw everything I never did
Lying around me, pieces and steps of the
Success I never got, reminders that
Whatever I planned, I never got far.
But in the middle of these broken promises
To myself, I could see for the first time
That I have not been broken.
And I must keep myself, all that is real,
As daybreak does, and nightfall.
I exist to others, but all I need is me.
I will be the last promise, when all is said
And kept.

Sin

Hey Mrs.Bashem this is my epitaph



There I lied
That was a sin
Now i hide
For now I can't win


this is my epitaph

lora said...

Two men
They started walking
Started talking bout better days
One says to the other
We do it all again
Seems I knew I would

And now I found it
Found I got it
I didn’t want this
Somebody help me see
Now I feel it
Feel like I’ve been there
I didn’t need this
Somebody help me breathe

Here we are again
Just face to facing
Each other another day
Who wins
Well who cares
It always ends up the same
Seems I knew I would

And now I found it
Found I got it
I didn’t want this
Somebody help me see
And now I feel it
Feel that I’ve been there
I didn’t need this
Would somebody help me stand
And now I’ve told them
Already warned them
I didn’t want this
Somebody help me breathe

If I was them
Then I wanna be
What I see
If I could drag my life in a moment
Wanna know do you want me to go
Gonna keep it all from ending
Never stop myself from pretending
That you always knew that I never could

All I ever really wanted was to be the same
Equal treatment never ever comes
And there they go again
All I ever really wanted was to be like you
So perfect
So worthless
If I could take it all back think again
I would

And now I found it
Found I got it
I didn’t want this
Somebody help me see
Now I feel it
Feel that I’ve been there
I didn’t need this
Somebody help me stand
And now I’ve told them
I didn’t want this
I didn’t need this
Would somebody help me breathe
Would somebody help me breathe
Would somebody help me?
