Mirroring reflection of one's old self
ripples when the tiny speck drifts into
water.
Side by side emotions cripples like debris,
in a distance, they go farther.
Acceptance is all you ever wanted in life;
but instead you tore open your own wounds.
Staggering an uneasy breath, with knife in hand.
You just needed someone who'll understand.
One without all the strife.
Sink into you as if he/she were sand.
This poem is an understatement...
of words that had needed to be said.
No need to make a commitment.
I am but a mere, if humble, friend.
A listening ear.
Yes, I am here.
Cry onto me.
Then you'll see...
I've always been here waiting ever so patiently.
Cry, rant, and gloat my dear.
Hush now.
Nestle your arms about me.
I shall not turn away.
Promise me, before you have a second more to think,
will you stay?
Can’t you feel me falling?
Down. Again.
See the open path of spring.
What’s the point of stalling?
Take steps to begin,
It’s the joy that you bring.
The distance keeps you calling.
That’s what makes you more than a friend.
Lingering presence of the past,
Normally wouldn’t last.
But from the contrast,
Too much. Too less.
The times were a blast.
The layers of thorns that had been filled with venom of vile words spoken,
and to the poison that struck me down with actions that could only described
as scars left onto my fragile state, and to have me tied down to the ground. . .
Where this budding rose never could see enough of the light of rays from the sun
to blossom into something much more than what it already was. . .
It was the gardener who cut the branches away, revealing the flower.
I love your poetry. Reminds me of Romantic era very much.
Why, thank you Xox.~
I've got a few more older poems lying around
here somewhere. I'll try to post them as soon
as I find them. I've always had a knack for
writing some poems, essentially ones that
deal with love, but what can I say? I'm a
hopele---hopeful romantic.
The inspiration for this one was actually from my friend. I found it wonderful that she had found love and felt it best I write her a poem to better herself to confess to the man she loved. Of course, it didn't work work out, but let's leave that little detail out, shall we? lol

A bonfire was built from a gathering of friends we know.
In patience, the hearth grew nice and slow.
How, even now, we were amazed from the tangerine glow.
Trails we picked through an open fire,
Swinging on our tree with a rusty tire,
Risen deep like a dirty desire.
We were having fun that day.
Full of wonder and play,
I saw you glance at me in a different way.
The tire stopped in your hands.
Silently as the sun set over the lands,
Now I truly understand.
We stared at each other for a moment or two.
Finally now it has come true,
I realize I love you.
We promised to meet on the full moon.
Down, by our tree house, near the lagoon.
My innocence will be lost here soon.
You softly whisper, my dear.
So coy and beautifully clear
And told me things I wanted to hear.
Tenderly your arms grasped me.
As we join as one to be.
You are all I see.
My hair fell into my face.
We went a steady even pace.
A memory, that forever, we could retrace.
Before our good-bye we enjoyed a sweet kiss.
Lost in my own bliss,
More than anything I wanted this:
I find myself sitting alone , in my room.
I just want someone to call my own, to be my groom.
Why do I even bother to persist,
in my mind, thinking he exists?
His warmth, is felt on my lips.
Never met him, never kissed.
His touch on my face, his fingertips.
For all that I yearn, I declare a wish:
"Meet me, you lecherous man, you foul one.
You have what you want, you've stolen my heart.
What did I lose, what have you won?
Can't you see you are tearing me apart?
Every day I see you are not here.
Every day I shed a new tear.
I was told by my true birth mother,
"I grant you this, I've made you a lover."
Why then, my dearest, are you not showing your face?
Do you not know, that without you, I feel out of place?
I smiled yesterday, at that of a miracle, my mother bestowed.
After my fun, I had frowned when it melted, my beautiful snow.
"Things never last forever", if not found, my heart will be coal.
Your eyes pierce into my naked soul.
Knowing more about me, than I'll ever know.
I want it to blossom, I want our love to grow.
It's just another dream....
Until you wake me up from my sleep.
It's just another dream....
Take a flying leap,
Believe that I'm real too...
Most of these poems I have no idea when I originally wrote them since I added new lines in them each time I went back to read them. Some are when I was absolutely random or felt out of sorts.As for the rap logs, those where purely for fun when Flash Chat still existed and I tried to give it a shot.

The Chalkboard
You face in front of a board with words you know are scrambled.
First you are fascinated what sentences could be formed from it.
Yet frustration soon takes over after the many failings of the meaning.
Left with no choice but to leave it behind or you’ll be left seething.
The farther you walk away from it, the more a weight carries on you.
One glance back and you knew you’d be back to wondering if it is true.
Taking a step forward and you have already taken two steps back.
An eerie silence has taken its toll but all you care about, is on the board.
An Epiphany While Sipping Tea
A curse, a gift, from the sky
Ask yourself ‘cause your wondering why
Sip your tea, time to say goodbye
Jump off the cliff, it’s time to fly
Forget regret, and start to try
Live forever, long after you die
Have happy memories when you cry
Let love flow in when you give in to sigh
First Rap Log
To the west, to the east,
Here them chanting from across the sea,
Never thought you’d hear a rhyme from me
Got tension coursing through my shoulders,
Here’s hoping I can move some boulders.
I’ll give it a shot, not much that I got.
Not my best plot.
Like the rest of you,
Hope this’ll do,
‘Cause now I’m through.
Pitter Pat Putter
Pitter Pat Putter
Would always cuss and mutter
When she farted another
But, alas, she could not compare to her brother
Or for that matter, her mother. . .
I really do wonder,
What might he think, her lover?
He might start to stutter
As the revolting smell drifting even further. . .
Into his nostrils.
Till then, as her best friend, I’m the one to suffer.
The End
Man-Whore
Even with your lip-closed smile,
You make all the girls go wild.
Give one flip of your hair,
And all the girls want to stare.
Make a girl’s knees start to buckle
When they hear you chuckle.
Speak softly into someone’s ear.
Calling every girl you know, “Dear.”
Rap Log, Act Two
Seeping what I sow,
Gotta’ hang on this flow,
Don’t really know,
If I can beat that damn crow
Try as I might, I can’t fight it
Someone ‘bout the throw
Some serious dough.
Yeah, I already planned it.
Don’t giv’a shit,
If ya start a lil’ hissy fit.
I’ll shove you down an endless pit.
See if that’ll save you with your sharp tongue
And your useless wit
Naw, it’s true, I haven’t even begun,
Won’t act like I won,
I’m only rappin’ for fun.
Taking out the big gun’s alright?
See me soar from
After Listening To "Aren't We All Running?"
It’s not enough to make your pain and sorrow.
Feel the breeze and clean air, as you open the window.
Amongst the vast sea, past the exotic trees, is your destiny.
Sprint forward in the unknown, your true face never shown.
Your lanky legs, slender arms, and tight-toned body…have grown.
Yet even though you keep moving you’ll soon find your heart has turned to stone.
Spoiler for ALERT 2::
Is it me or from the order that I put the poems in, is it in the a shape of a lamp?
Even with your lip-closed smile,
You make all the girls go wild.
Give one flip of your hair,
And all the girls want to stare.
Make a girl’s knees start to buckle
When they hear you chuckle.
Speak softly into someone’s ear.
Calling every girl you know, “Dear.”
I love them all, but that one just flows really well, as does the one before it.
That this is actually a song rather than a poem. it's probably the longest song and without the bridge, chorus, and pre-chorus, it would've been the second longest poem I've ever written. So, here you go. Enjoy.
[Verse 1]
This will soon be turning into a major foreseeing complication.
There’s just no way to saying this is some new unique fascination.
I must figure out how to deal with this unexpected trawling equation.
Saying that if we added you and I together, wouldn’t be a good vindication.
My point of view is obscuring an abnormal size of extreme distortion.
Your heart and soul couldn’t fit very well into this compact proportion.
I thought I could use your weaknesses for some mischievous extortion.
I find myself slowly opening up to your expression of contortion.
[Chorus]
I know you can see right through me.
At times it can be a little scary,
At other times it helps me see more clearly
It’s all because I know what you’re feeling.
It’s true; I know what I feel for you.
Your eyes are as deep as the ocean blue.
I know before this song is through,
I’ll admit that I’m in love with you.
[Verse 2]
Feels like I’ve been hit a line of fire filled with radiation.
I’m on my knees, begging for this to be your cruel creation.
Ready for you to say this was all your idea of imitation.
That way I can wipe clean this sick and twisted fixation.
It’s finally come down to me asking out of sheer desperation.
Why won’t this feeling go away like my very own hallucination?
Is there, any way you can conform to being my salvation?
I no longer want to be held by the restraints of this tribulation.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Bridge]
You’ve hinted we could become more, once before.
I’m not one to give into this kind of conceited exposure.
I never can be quite sure, how long I’d remain yours.
This was never a game to settle all the scores.
The passion in your eyes I could no longer ignore. . .
There’s only one excuse that can make this all practical.
In reality, it left me with a way of behaving irrational.
[Verse 3]
There’s just some satisfaction by seeing your reaction.
I’m starting to think this is more than just a silly infatuation.
It all began with when we did a little bit of flirtation.
You smiled at me as if it were an open set invitation.
I’ve been contemplating an uneasy feeling of anticipation.
While all along, in turn, it became a total feeling of elation.
Took me long enough to finally admit to this absurd revelation.
It was hard for me to be upfront, which was what caused this hesitation.
[Pre-Chorus]
I know before this song is through,
I’ll admit that I’m fallen for you
And to the fact no other person will do.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 4]
You spent most of your days proving to me your undying devotion.
This is what substantially had me come to alarming erosion.
By now, I’m sure everyone can see you caused this commotion.
Within time you would finally be lead to this newfound notion.
It’s been way too hard to not fall under your wicked spell of temptation.
I don’t want this to form into my own drawn out foolish expectation.
There’s no use in denying, I can’t go on with this ridiculous protraction.
It’s about time I cave in to admit to the boundless Laws of Attraction.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now that this song is through,
I’ll admit that I’m in love with you.
At this point, no other person will do.
Know that the words I speak are true.
You’ve hinted we could become more, once before.
I’m not one to give into this kind of conceited exposure.
I never can be quite sure, how long I’d remain yours.
This was never a game to settle all the scores.
The passion in your eyes I could no longer ignore. . .
There’s only one excuse that can make this all practical.
In reality, it left me with a way of behaving irrational.
