This is my poetry. I've been writing since I was about 8 years old. I hope to get my stuff published someday.  I'll be building up on this page as I go along. Hope you like it!
This poem is about my dog, Koko. He's my baby. :)
My Best Frie
nd

His eyes seem to see
The inner depths of my soul
His loving gaze to me
Is like the mending of a hole

A soothing touch of fur
Could calm a nerve of solid steel
And end all pains that were
So love is all that you would feel

Those cold, wet kisses mean
He loves you without any end
And gestures that can go unseen
Mean always that he'll be your friend


And when there's no one there
To turn to when you're all alone
There'll always be someone who cares
Whose understanding goes unknown
Eternal Life

The earth stood still
The sun grew dark
The rain fell down
But left no mark

My heart beat on
As fast as time
My soul lived on
Much like a rhyme

With melody
So beautiful
Like angel wings
So criminal

Too lovely still
To be the truth
Yet truthful in
Such lasting youth

No evil live
Nor no good die
But infinite
My love stood by

Through spacious voids
And light-year miles
Through glowing stars
Along the Nile

As long as love
Exists in me
I shall exist
And always be

My body die
The world may end
My always
By love, will mend
My Secret Love

You'll never know my feelings for you
You'll never know the sadness I do
I try to endear you, but you just ignore
I can't take this pain from you anymore

Why can't you love me and always be mine?
Why must you constantly make my heart pine?
All I desire is you in my arms
To hold me forever and keep me from harm

Please kiss me and tell me you care for me so
Adore me for always and say you won't go
I'm crying for you with heart-wrenching tears
Because of my need to have you so near

Though you ignore me as if I were dead
Though you don't notice the tears that I shed
I will still love you and hope that someday
You'll love me as well, the same special way
The Rain Forest Of Peace

I hear trees above
That whisper music softly
Admiring my love
Of life and all its beauty

I feel the cooling rain
Upon my smiling face
Abolishing the strain
I felt when out of place

The forest creatures sing
And lull me into sleep
The memories they bring
Will all be mine to keep

The gurgling of the brook
The chirping of the birds
The way the forest looks
I can't describe in words

My heart is swelling fast
With such enlightenment
And all my thoughts of past
Become just puzzlement

As I surrender to
The calling nature sends
And silently undo
The scars my life won't mend
I

My love has died
My love is gone
My heart belongs
To dusk and dawn

My body dust
My soul is sand
In the hourglass
Of blissfull land

I don't exist
I do not live
My love and hate
I cannot give

I am the hate
I am the love
I am the fire
I am the dove

I did not live
I did not die
I cannot laugh
I cannot cry

I merely am
I'll always be
As long as there's
A world to see
My Longing

My heart is screaming
You can't even hear
My hands are searching
You can't even feel
My lips are craving
You don't even know
My eyes are loving
You don't even see
My love is wanting
You don't even care
I'll keep on trying
And soon you'll realize
What I've been saying
To you this whole time
My Secret

No one knows
No one cares
I have a secret
Would you like to know?
I can fly
Without wings
Without a thing
I can catch a star
And lock it up inside
Where no one else
Can find it
Deep inside my heart
Do you know why?
Because I can
Can you see it in my eyes?
The star shines even brighter
Dancing to and fro
Hypnotizing, enchanting
That is my secret
Do you believe me?
No?
It doesn't matter
No one does
My Baby

Faithful and friendly
Someone I can't live without
Soft, cute, and loving
I love my baby, Koko
The sweetest dog and my friend
