| My poetry that I can't seem to leave off of this site... scroll down...I added more... |
| Not a day goes by, That I don't regret, But You don't care, No You don't give a damn. You've made me Your personal punching bag, Blaming me for all that is wrong in Your world, Asking me for everything, But not even giving friendship in return. I once thought I did not deserve You, But now I see just how untrue that really is, You don't deserve Me, For I would give You the world, If only You would ask, But You don't even want to say hello. But life goes on, And so I must, Say Good-Bye, And wish You luck. Monica Everdyke copyright 2002 |
| Flip the Switch I wish I had that switch, That goes from on to off, And off to on, In the matter of a flick. To be able to turn it off, Leave the room, And You behind, But I can't, Or I won't, I'm not quite sure, Which it is, But life would be so much easier, If I could just, Flip that switch, And become that B*tch.

| It Didn't Have to Be Where did it all go wrong, What did We do that was right, Two friends, Turned lovers, Now enemies, It didn't have to be, But it is. All the harsh words, All the painful actions, The strongest of connections, Now the weakest of bonds, It didn't have to be, But it is. We held the World in Our hands, When We held each other close, We had it all, But it turned out to be dust in the wind, Sand through Our fingers, It didn't have to be, But it is.

| Where were You that night I needed You so badly? I screamed out Your name, But the only answer was silence, Silence had never hurt so badly. I needed You, And no one was there to answer my cries. Nothing except silence. MonicaEverdyke copyright 1999 |
| I thought that I was broken, But I was just bent, I thought that I was knocked down, But I just slipped and lost my grip. My eyes have been opened, And now I am seeing the truth, Oh how that sucks for You, Because now Your the One missing out. I'm smiling more, Because the weight has been lifted, I'm feeling free, Because the chains have been broken. Releasing myself from all the pain, All the hurt, And all the burdens. Boy does that suck for You, Because You're the One missing out now. Monica Everdyke copyright 2003 |
| The One Can You be the One, To make my heart leap, And skip a beat? Can You be the One, To make my tongue tie, And all my words jumble? Can You be the One, To turn my world inside out, But still be standing by my side, When it's all said and done? And if You are the One, Will You promise to hold me up, And push me forward, When I've nothing left to give? And if You are the One, Will You be there for me always, Standing by my side? And if You are the One, Will You always be You, And never try to hide? Can You be the One, That I have been longing, And looking for? Can You be the One, That fills this empty piece, And makes my life complete? Can You be the One? Monica Everdyke copyright 2003 |

| Through These Eyes Through these eyes, I see the pain, The hurt, The confusion. Through these eyes, I witness the unacceptness, The remarks, The threates. Through these eyes, I hope for the future, The acceptance, The freedom. Through these eyes, I pray for the people that follow in my footsteps, For their safety, For their future, To be who they are. Through these eyes, I see the world, Looking forward to the future, And what We have to gain. Monica Everdyke copyright 2000 |
| You have won the fight. I have lost to You. I knew that I would lose. But I still fought. I fought because I have always been taught that You are bad That You are not normal. That I should not be You. But You are what I am and I know. The only question is am I ready to take on everything that You bring? No. But there is nothing for me to do. Everyday I realize more and more that I am You. Last week I was only half of You, Now I am ninety-five percent of You, The five percent that is left is not enough to prevent me from becoming You. But I will not be accepted as you from the people that I should be. Just when I am ready to make a connection with them, You take over. You just make the connection harder to reach, More farther away from my grasp than anything has ever been. But I am strong. I may have lost to You, But I will win in the end. I will be the one left standing strong and looking around knowing what I have accomplished. Happy with being You. Monica Everdyke copyright 2000 |
| I have resurrected a couple from way back (the two directly below).Not sure how they ever got lost off the site, but I'm glad they're making another showing. If there are any that people may remember from way back that got lost somewhere let me know and I will do my best to find it and post it... |
