Ode to Poetry

February 14th, 2005

Carefree rhyming as you go
Changing words to and fro
Poetry is what I do best
Need help and I’ll be your guest
No need to even rhyme
Some think it’s a waste of time
I’m always writing away
A poem almost every day
Writing out the words to your heart
Poetry is such a wonderful art

My Heart

January 25th, 2005

I wish I could hide how I really felt
Yet everyone knows without a doubt
It’s like my eyes are clouds about to rain
It’s like I have gone insane

It’s not that I’m in love, I think
It’s only you’re there every time I blink
Although I’m not one of your kind
Will you just make up your mind

My heart skips a beat when I’m in your class
If I see you in the hall I will just pass
I hate when our eyes meet at times
I hate using these stupid rhymes

You make me cry, I have no clue why
You’re a part of my life, this is no lie
Tear drops neither happy nor sad
This heart of mine has drove me mad

Catching rain as it falls to the ground
I left my heart in the lost and found
And when you think there’s nothing left to do
Just remember I fell for you

Misunderstood

January 19th, 2005

You never know when it’s going to happen
But when it does you have no idea what to do
You’re falling down the steps of pain
Though you don’t even have a clue

Oh why did this happen to you
The thought keeps running through your head
Thinking this might be a dream
Yet you aren’t waking up in your bed

Your friends are the ones by your side
When you are ready to talk
But thinking they might turn on you
You’d rather take a walk

Hoping it’ll get better
Misty skies fill the air
Screaming at the top of your lungs
Wishing things would be fair

Turning on life itself will not do you any good
Everyone thinks you’re just misunderstood
Feelings as deep as hell itself
And though you’re falling you aren’t reaching for help
