Newest Poems (Continued)
Why do you sit there and stare into space
Not a care in the world, no expression on your face
Don't you have feelings about anything
Don't those words you say ever sting
Do you have regrets about this
or do all those pains just get dismissed
Why do you linger there after you say goodbye
Are you expecting something special
Expecting something great
'Cause it ain't gonna happen
Not today, not tomorrow, not ever
Why don't you just leave right away
And stay away forever
That is wnat you want, isn't it?
Then leave... leave me, leave us
We won't mind at all
So go ahead, Goodbye.
I can't get you off my mind, babe
Your face is inscribed into my eyelids
Your voice plays over in my ears
The scent of you lingers below my nose
And I can still taste your lips
My hands still feel the warmth of yours
My heart is full of your love
When my mind drifts, it's you in my dreams
I still shed your tears with mine
Your love is stuck inside me,
Taking over me
And babe, I can't let it out
Even the words I write are yours
You may be gone, but you're still here
There's nothing I can do now
Because all that's left of me has become you
I have become you...
How do you take the conversation
That is completely serious
And *flip* turn it around of me?
You make a silly joke
And I laugh out loud
The conversation is now light-hearted
And the subject has swiftly changed
I am left speechless
Not even sure if I am glad
...Or if I am mad
That you took off all the pressure
But you never fail me, never!
Later on you bring it up
Once you've had a chance to think
And even why you find out
You "take it like a man"
You understand me completely
...How do you do it?!
You know me too well
You're meant for me
I still can't believe I lost you
As I sit here and reminisce
I look through old letters, poems
Wonder was it all a lie?
But it couldn't be... not those words
Then why did it diminish
How did
that turn to this?
Will I ever figure it out? I doubt it
Only God will know, if even
Maybe he's stumped, too
How did his angels sent from heaven
Turn their friendship to this?
The devil must have done it, but how?
His angels know better...
They know better
Then how, then why?
There iwll never be an answer
Because it isn't the answer that's important
It's the memories...
It's the laughter, it's the tears
All that compiled over the years
That's what's important now
I look at you and I see a great guy
My best friend, the best I've ever had
I can tell you things I can't tell anyone else
You have the same thoughts about me
I like you a lot now, this you know
You feel the same way, but you know you can't
You're committed to your girlfriend as you should be
But you see me, and you know there's something there
You say I'm different than all the other girls
I am, and I try hard to be
I don't like to gossip, and you noticed that about me
You say if you had "best friends," I'd be one
You know the same goes for you
We've let this get by us more than once before
But it's okay 'cause we're the best of friends
And baby, that's all that matters to me
You're a great person, and I'm just glad I know you
You're the best, and you know it
You know it, but you act like you don't
When you look at me, you think of all those times you liked me
And you wonder what i'm feeling
Well, now you know...
I'm thinking the same as you
Some people say that they
Would like to know the future
But I think that it could only end
In fear or bad interpretations
Others say that they would
Want to hear people's thoughts
But in my opinion that's no good
It's an invasion of their privacy
I tink that many "super powers"
Really aren't that "super"
Most just cause you pain
And you end up regretful
So I'm quite content to e
Just a plain old normal person
Because I have my personality
To make me stand out in the crowd
Sure, sometimes I dream
That I could fly away
But flying would undoubtedly
Leave me crashing in the end
So although it might seem nice
To have these so-called "super powers"
There are consequences to them
So please, just be happy with yourself
Let your heart be loving
Keep your mind quite open
Peal your eyes and you will see
These are just as good as any "super power"
Sleep is not an option tonight
My mind is full of unwritten words
Poem after poem pour from my soul
And the supply is endless; infinate
I wonder where all this is coming from
Why am I so full of words tonight
When I've been starving for so long
And I find this explanation:
I'm lost in a vast ocean of nothing
Where I don't have to feel anything
The sea is my never-ending supply
And the ship caption shouts out Land Ho
The wind picks up, filling my sail
My ship glides upon the smooth water
Until it hits the sandy shore
And the cargo of words is unloaded
The words are placed together
Creating one line after the next
Lines annex, filling the pages
And in the end, my poems.
