except maybe susan :lol:

in which case,



putting holes in my heart
with your fist with your fist and i
can't tell you apart
from the one that i kissed
putting holes in my head
with your laugh with your stare
when i look away
doesn't mean you're not there
you're my nightmare
but i miss you
you're my nightmare
and you're gone

blackness falls and there you are
burn me with your shooting stars and i
can't look away from it
i just can't seem to feel missed
you're my nightmare
and i kissed you
you're my nightmare
and you're gone
you're my nightmare
but i miss you
and the truth is
i don't care

It's a flat world
The words you fling
Meet no friction
Keep their sting
And I'm exposed
To what you say
My covered ears
Hear anyway
Can't build hills
Can't dig holes
In this machine
Of faceless souls
And I am stripped
Of myself too
And I fling words
Right back at you
And we are equal
Each one alone
In two dimensions
Throwing stones.

:uh:

Good rythm(sp?), it gives the poem a very nice effect.

You set off to the deep blue sea
I’ll miss you but don’t mind me
Some day we’ll be back together again
I’ll be alone without you

Take some photographs of Stonehenge
And laugh when you see something strange
But don’t forget that I’ll be here
I’ll be alone without you

I’ll think about you every night
Hoping for you return safe and sound
I’ll close my eyes and see you around
Please come back real soon




Wear a jacket when you get to the pole
Light some fire with some matches and coal
I’ll be looking for your fire tonight
I’ll be alone without you

Send me a letter from the jungle wild
And I hope you finished and you smiled
Some day we’ll be back together again
I’ll be alone without you

I’ll think about you every night
Hoping for you return safe and sound
I’ll close my eyes and see you around
Please come back real soon

Kinda lame poem I'm working on for English class. One of the lines is a near total rip of a Matt Good lyric, sowwy. Comments appreciated though *hinthintnudge* And I wanna know what people think it's about. Not the meaning or anything, just what it's describing.

deepest pools of secret blue
above an arc of pearly light
that irresistably draw a seeing few
remove the world, make broken things right

feathers of gold above the arc dawn
falling away into sapphire air
a map of her divinity that goes on and on
in a moment far too rare.

Destiny's Imposter..?

We dance along the moon's shadow
dark spaces crossed by trembling hands
flirting with the sneaking suspicion
that something is here to take us away
that something is nestled deeply
between your tie
and my heartbeat.
it grows as you come closer
to my domain of insecurity
filling this gap of ackwardness
that has taken me hostage
since my eyes decided to appreciate
your lips
which
breathe
life
into this lingering medium of lust
and my not knowing what to do
you say so much without talking
I'm afraid that a word may
throw me out of touch with love's miniscule target-a heart
mine ablaze with Eros's flames
I have been shot accidently with cascading light
that has paralyzed every part of my body
except for my eyes
and all they can do is look up and try to see
if the windows of your soul are hazy as well
nobody will ever know
that the racing rain
has beat my tears


to the


groud

only to be exposed to the harsh world
which keeps it's passion stashed away
beyond the moon's
shadow.

I ddin't write this but my little 9 year old sister did and i thought it was really good and cute for her age and wanted to share :

A Poem Called:Where are you?

I sit here on my bedroom floor
Wondering if I will see you again
Because I haven't seen you for a while
I just wonder if I'm still your friend

I just want to know where are you?
I miss you very much
If there's something I can do
Please tell me anything is not to rough

When people smile
It makes me go wild
When people frown
It puts me down

Where are you?
I see you when the sun shines
I usually see you all the time
all I can say is I miss you

i am once agin impressed by your poetry lol. i honestly wish that i was literate enough to write like that. contrary to Michelle's beleifs, i can't produce anything good story-wise, let alone a poem.

Oh, come on, Caitlin! You can write a poem about anything... Like maybe you could talk about your run-in with that securtiy guard at the ACC that one time...

Twas a cold night when I saw OLP
And there was a security guard running after me
I didn't know what to do
I didn't know what to say
So my little legs ran
far, far away.


hahaha. spam.

phoenix wings

the sunset bleeds red
over the horizon
saturating the sky
in a fire of gold

here I am in flame
being in your presence
blood, flowing quickly
in the heat of desire

fire consuming all
phoenix wings
fly me to heaven

the sunrise comes again
a bright and shining halo
the earth crowned in glory
in a burst of light

here I am in love
cradled in your arms
I want you here so much
in the fire of your touch

fire consuming all
phoenix wings
fly me to heaven

Inhibitions thundering in the distance
agony awakens me again
and I feel
or I think.
I perceive your hand next to mine
and I realize that lust is for the innocent
Love is for the foolish
And mutual acceptance is only for the wise
I can falter from your faults
And it seems as if the weaving of immaturity and happiness
is finally unraveling from your face
and you're starting to realize that you tend to lead tme to water
helplessly drinking your charm and free spirited ways
until I realize that the reflection is not of mine
but rather an imposter in my dream
then I snap out of this daze
I didn't know I was dreaming until I realized
That you were exactly how I wanted you.
With your bright eyes foreshadowing a future of love
And your asinine remarks striking a chord in this supposedly intellegent girl.
I don't know why it hurts to know you lied
after all it's just a game we play
and only keep score when we know we're winning
I thought it was the cold night that slapped me
until I saw the faint outline of your hand across my face

I just spontaneously wrote that. So much for keeping the exquisiteness factor in play.
