Though I know we�ll need to part ways,
I hope to look back on these days,
When we�re all with each other,
And be so glad we were together.
Although one day we�ll be apart,
I�ll do my best to keep you in my heart,
In gratitude for all you�ve done,
Every time together fun,
The small things that show you care,
Memories and stupid jokes we share,
Everything that we ever do.
I�ll try to keep those words true.
I want to really thank you all,
With you there I don�t feel small.
I�d list here every friend,
But then this wouldn�t end,
I�d have way too much to ever say
About each one of you, it�d take all day
To list everything I know.
Well this poem goes to show
That I did have sweet words to write
While I contemplated you tonight�.



There are regrets from the past
That everyone seemingly has
Healing from them doesn�t last

Trying to move on is as
Impossible as almost anything
Can be or ever was

Things not easily gone, like a ring
Are lost forever or broken
Flung further than possible by wing

Hurt by every single word spoken
Hearts are extremely sad
Happiness is no longer their token

Everything�s so lost and bad
Everyone�s face is board stiff
Never again is there a happy lad

The pungent odor, if one may whiff
Is saddening and makes hope lost
Then no one ever wonders what if

We tried to get back what was tossed
Away like it was only nothing
And covered now in thick frost

To get it back is the hardest thing
In the world to even attempt to do
The effort is greater than everything

Everything ever even attempt to
Harder because of its impossibility
More than the greatest demon ever slew

To try and get it back takes an ability
Beyond what most can boast
Like a free wild cat�s agility

It can be desired by many or most
But it�s not likely to happen
Like bread coming toast

But it�s possible to try and then
It can turn into something good
But also bad things might happen

You begin to wish that you could
Go back again and change something
Oh how nice be it would

Oh one it�s lost that one thing
It never comes back the way it was
It�s amazing the changes it�ll bring

When you try and get it back because
Once it�s gone it�ll never be the same
It will never be the way it once was

Even though it may have the name
Or essential meaning as it used to have
But even with that it�s not the same

Now it�s pointless to try and save
It�s lost and will always be
Say goodbye to it with a quick wave

Even though I know that see
I don�t want to try
To move on truly, really

I sometimes think I can fly
Fly above, get the best of it
Then I realize I can�t and sigh

In this role I now must fit
Give up hope and just exist
Live on in spite of it

Give up my one true wish
Go on without what I want
Instead of perhaps a twist

That gives a chance, a flaunt
Of what might be nice
Instead I�ll run away, jaunt

Flee across the very thin ice
Testing my luck tempting fate
To try the same thing twice

But the safe way is barred by gate
So on ever thinner ice I tread
Will I fall through? Guess I�ll wait

Nervewracked so much my head
Is ready to break in two
If another sad thing is said

To be heartbroken again, What�ll I do?
How can I go on like this?
How can I actually make it through?

How can I give up on this?
On what I thought would be best
What I now know I miss

Never will I let it rest
Until things become more
That they are at the present
It doesn�t matte what for
I do it, it only does
That I�m trying to free that door

But the reason is because
It�s what I want really bad
I don�t know the reason, cause

Why not having this makes me sad
Why this emptiness makes me mourn
Why him not seeming to care, mad

Yet even in me I�m torn
Which way to go I do not know
It leaves me even more forlorn

How is it that I can grow
Right now, the way I am
How can I get up and go

Again after so rudely Wham!
I am knocked off my feet
And swept away by a broken dam?

Broken now, because of defeat
Of what once was firm and true
And now is taking back-seat

To what I  really want to do:
Have it work out with me and you.
�Follow your dreams!� they always say.
�Why�d I tell them that dream?�
She thinks to herself, wondering.
�It�d not how they make it seem,�

�I wasn�t trying to take his life,
Although that now seems fun,
In that dream so long ago
He annoyed me, I wanted him gone.�

In that dream she tried to
Get away form him, but still
He persisted and tagged along,
Until she finally lost her will.

�I put my hands up to choke him,
And after a moment I ran,
Ran away because I was afraid
Of what I�d done to that man.�

You see, �that man� was her friend
Except now she�s a little mad
At him, and is now tempted
To follow her dream, oh so bad.

�He-he it�d be fun to do now.
After all, why shouldn�t I?
If I only follow that dream literally,
He�ll live on and will not die!�
There once was a girl who lived
In a life of despair, so sad.
She lived from day to day.
No one seemed to care, �Well too bad.�

She thought to herself.
�Oh well, I should move on,
My heart�s broken, so what?
Without any healing it�ll be gone.�

Then someone else came along.
Along he came, so much the same
As the one who had broken her
Still she was glad that he came.

Even though sometime not too far off
He�d break again her weary heart,
She till was oh too happy
To move on again with a fresh start.

Her life seemed bright, her step light,
A constant smile was on her face.
Until things horrid and awful
Came, put her back in her dark place.

The love she had for him
Was hers alone, he joined not it.
She wanted to sink down, down far.
Her face is blank, not that goofy grin.
~ Following My Dreams ~
~ Heart Broken One Too Many Times ~
I wish I had sweet words to write
While I contemplate you tonight.
To all my friends, old and new,
All my friends, tried and true.
Some seem far away, that�s okay.
Others I see nearly every day.
Even though I may not act this way,
There�s one thing I know I need to say:
Thank you.  Thank you all.
Having you helps me stand tall
All of you care, care about me
You�ve helped open up my eyes to see
The beauty this world has,
All it is and ever was,
All that it one day will bring,
From the smallest to the largest thing.
I now see how wonderful they are.
Though it may grow dark, I�ll see a star
And I�ll remember you are there,
Standing right behind me here.
Though I may seem to ignore you,
I never am blind to what you do,
The many ways you show you care,
I appreciate them the way they are.
I know sometimes I make you mad,
But I hope you never are sad.
I wish your world bright,
Never a cold bleak night.
As good a friend I�ll try to be
Like what in you I can see.
I hope to do better now,
Be better I know not how.
I want to be nicer, more caring,
Kinder, less selfish, more sharing
Than I am.  I hope to be
Full of the traits I see,
I see in you all.  I know
I don�t deserve you, yet how
Could anyone ever deserve a friend?
What kind of message does that send?
You can�t earn what can�t be bought.
It�s priceless, though may seem naught
To many that have it
And don�t show the know it.
Friendship is the best thing ever.
I hope to lose you never.
I wish it to go on forever,
Never begin to sever.
I could write hate poetry
But I won�t
I could think of revenge
But I don�t
I might want to cry
But I try not to
Although it seems I
Should hate you
Way deep down
There�s no way I could
Yeah so what
You say I should
It�d make sense
Or so you say
Because of you
My world should be gray
Yet though it�s bad
I�ve been through strife
Beyond what I should have
To deal with in this lifeYet I know it�s not
As bad as it could be
If you go beyond outside
There�s much more to see
Deep down inside of me
So much more is there
Many times I don�t
Know how I can bear
What I�ve thrown down
Down into my heart
How to get rid of the darkness
I hardly know how to start
Yet already I feel better
My heart�s a little light
Things are better
I know it�ll be alright
It�s not your fault
You didn�t do this
I did this now
My own fault it is
You couldn�t help it
Nothing could you change
I guess it was meant to be
This though it�s strange
Just keep being
Exactly who you are
Thank you, for you
I now love the stars.
THANKS
FOR
EVERYTHING
when something is broken
like a pot or a plate
there always is the crack
even if it is fixed
it's never as strong
weaker in one spot
ready to break again
but when other things
become broken, split
when they are alive
a strength comes from
deep down within
and if they're given
a chance to mend
themselves they will
like a broken bone
or a shattered heart
or now useless wings
the bone becomes stronger
than it was before
it won't break there again
the shattered heart trys
futilly at first, but soon
it learns to love again
useless wings, like i have
heal and will once again soar
now higher than before.....
useless wings
sigh... i can't write much anymore.. where have my poems gone.....
other poem...
*** wow, I am just reading over some of these, and I really miss the days when I was writing them, not only for how I felt, but for the fact that I made the time to actually write about my feelings....
