Well ya'll, I decided to put a few of my favorite poems up on this site. I'd always love to hear what you think about them, good or bad. As Brainy said on her poem page, please don't copy these. They are from my own brain and a lot of hard thinking and hard work went to create these pieces of beauty. They are for you to enjoy, not copy :)
Thanks!

I didn�t get the chance to say �Good-Bye�
The day you left me for good
I only wish I had the chance
You know I would have if I could
I miss the stories of the good ol� days
How you taught me to dance
I wish there could be more of those times
I wish you could be given the chance
I miss the fights over the television
How we use to make Grandma scream
She would always take my side
Which made you mad, or so it seemed
I miss how you would warn me about boys
They were nothing but bad
But I could always come to you
You would handle things if one made me sad
The only thing I regret
Is not being there that day
But I will always be �Papa�s Girl�
And in my heart, your memory will stay
Dedicated to my Papa � Casey Shelton
I hold the ring in my hand
That you gave me before going off to sea
Never thought I�d never see you again
Oh lord, why must this be?
A terrible storm came
And broke your ship apart
Your body lies deep beneath the surface
Or in the belly of a shark
The diamonds will always sparkle
And the silver band still shines
Yet the wedding bells will never ring
And you will never be truly mine
I sit here wondering
What our life would have been like
Us being wonderful parents
And me your gorgeous wife
The waves gently hit my feet
And my heart knows that you�re there
Touching me one last time
Showing me that you will always care
Your presence pulls me out to sea
And suddenly, I can see your face
You lead me to my watery grave
On my lips I feel the salty taste
Under the waves I go
Not even knowing how to swim
Knowing that we will meet
And forever I shall be with him
Once I took a bite
I was hooked
Was it your charm?
Or your incredibly good looks
You made me sin
Not once, but twice
Oh, should I still talk with you?
Or should I continue not being nice?
You made it clear
That all you wanted to be was friends
As long as we have benefits
Will this friendship never end?
I hope the good lord
Will forgive me for what I�ve done
Please forgive my stupidity
For me, I am even stunned
Looking up at the bright, padded white walls
Looking back onto my life; never knowing I�d fall
Looking back to my friends who were never there
Looking back onto their time they wouldn�t share
Looking back to all of the fights with my family
Looking back onto all of the painful memories
Sitting here laughing at everyone in my past
Sitting here wishing my sanity would had last
Sitting here crying with no shoulder to catch my tears
Sitting here wondering what I could have accomplished in those years
Sitting here pondering who would have wanted me for their wife
Sitting here thinking about the meaning of life
Wishing they hadn�t put me in this place
Wishing I hadn�t turned into such a disgrace
Wishing they would have listened for a while
Wishing I hadn�t walked my last sane mile
Wishing they would come for a small visit
Wishing, for them, I could put my life on exhibit
To show them the hell that they put me through
To show them why I was always so blue
To show them why I hated them so much
To show them why me and reality lost in touch
To show them why I had left them
To show them why they shouldn�t do it to someone else again
Have you ever wanted to talk with someone and they weren�t there?
You�re sitting alone � Next to an empty chair
Have you ever wanted to say sorry, but were too late?
You�re standing there alone � Watching them leave behind a shut gate
Have you ever wanted that person to be more than a friend?
You�re too afraid to ask � You don�t want the friendship to end
Have you ever wanted to introduce yourself to that one guy?
You�re there just watching him - Wishing you weren�t so shy
Have you ever wanted to take back something awful you just said?
You�re stuck with those words � Dancing in your head
Have you ever wanted to hear their voice one last time?
You want that soothing sound � To make everything fine
Have you ever wanted just to see their face?
You�re all alone � Your fighting left you a disgrace
Have you ever wanted to feel their loving touch?
You�re just sitting back � Afraid of asking for too much
Have you ever just wanted them there?
You�re sitting there crying � Their memory too painful to bear

I look into a mirror, and what do I see?
A brilliant young lady standing in front of me
Long brown hair, beautiful almond shaped eyes
From her lips never comes out a lie
Not exactly thin, but far from fat
She never thinks that she is all that
She stands proud at five foot two inches
Hardly complains, and rarely bitches
Shy, sensitive, creative and smart
Not one to be called a nark
Clothes semi tight, glasses upon her nose
Doesn�t care for paint on her fingers and toes
She likes to stay busy, with almost too much on her plate
She�s always five minutes early, hardly ever late
Yet there must be one major flaw she over looks
That stops her crushes from biting the hook
She�s far from perfect, yet still an angel sent from above
But all of the guys must not think she is good enough to love
What is so wrong with her that no one is willing to take that small step?
Would it be something that they would actually regret?
These very thoughts fly through my mind
One day, will I find someone to call mine?
Hello, my name is Shy.
I don�t like talking in front of others, so I�m writing this down.
You will find me in the back of the room, leaning on a wall, with my hands crossed neatly in front of me
I carry the same expression upon my face at all times, which makes me look like a snob.
But if you get to know me, you�ll see what�s in the inside and not just on the outside
I�m a really good friend because I can listen better than I can talk.
I�m usually not the one in trouble all of the time and I don�t say what�s on my mind.
I usually hide what I am good at from people until I am noticed.
The only people that I trust are those who are very close to me
So, if you see me in the halls, smile or say hi.
I will always smile back and I will even try to find my voice to say hi back.
