Some poems...if anyone cares to read

[maryjanemama]

OK, first off, they don't all rhyme, some are just random thoughts from my mind. I don't even know what some of them mean. And they don't have names, just numbers. These are just a few:

#68

What frustration you must feel when I do now fall in line

This is not how you expected me to be

That was then - haven't I grown up yet?

You don't seem to understand that I am 100 years older than you

Raise your voice and maybe I will obey

Refuse to speak

Then I might see the error of my ways

How could I?

Very easily

This is MY life

I'm not sorry if it doesn't match your white ideal

Try to bend and shape me until I think like you

Somehow...you'll make me fit

As if I am something that you try on

Just try to fold me into a neatly gift wrapped box

Then maybe you can give me away

#69

I am fingerprinted

I have smears and scatches

And a few stains

I am not new

I am hardly clean

Forget about pure

I come as is

No exchanges

But you may be able to return me...if you hurry

#79

You twist and turn away

As if my words were
f
a
l
l
i
n
g
rocks

I can't say anything that you haven't heard before

Believe me

There is nothing that you can say to change my made up mind

This day will turn into night

That will collide into another useless day

And I will always feel the same way

#15

There comes a time when you can no longer fake a smile

When your mouth aches from forcing your lips to curl

Just to make him happy

Because you know he's watching you

ALL THE TIME

You're not sure just how far his rage may take him

You are scared

Somewhere there is a voice screaming inside you're head

"Just get away!"

Before you are in too deep

But you are already trapped

You're sure that someday you'll walk away

But for now you stay

Your mouth hurting worse than ever

#21

I looked away because I thought "They are all the same"

He fell and broke like glass

I just tip toed home

Careful not to cut myself on a sharp piece of him

#25

Once upon a time, I cared

Once upon a time, I'd wait

Once upon a time, I tried

Now it's just too late

So run

Run away

That's the only thing I could ever count on anyway

Thank you very much.

Maybe love will never return

Maybe sorrow will be eternal

Maybe I'll melt the next time I see you

Maybe you're not worth it

Maybe I'll burn all of your letters

Maybe life will never be the same

Maybe you'll always laugh while I scream

Maybe I'll never find another you

Maybe I'll phone and you'll hang up

Maybe I've forgotten what day it is

Maybe I can't remember my own name

Maybe you don't even know know who I am

Maybe I don't either

"I do love you," he says. But his words swirl around me...somewhere..Maybe they are only in my head..but his words are there. Getting louder, shouting. Then suddenly, they are gone...they are abstract.

I cannot fathom love. I can not imagine the word or see it's form...but I know it is there. Floating. It may be trapped inside of me..whirling around, knocking me from side to side. It may be locked with me, inside of this old car.

Or, I may have imagined him... and his words and I'm all alone. Love may be coming from the mouth of the insect beating itself against the windshield. Or this constricting seat belt...squeezing the life out of me.

No, no, he is really here..but love is not.

#51

As you dance through my head, you rip at my heart

Feeling high is feeling good

But it's not feeling you

You always creep up on me

Just when I think I can stand

Only to knock me down again

[duppy man]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts ..with me ..Its like falling asleep in a room full of strangers you can only do that if you feel comfortable here is a thought of mine.. I was left with not a lot, and all I've left was left me, when I die I'll leave all I've left because all I've Left was left me !!!

[maryjanemama]

Duppy man, no, thank you, I thought only a handful of people read this thread. That was a good one, my brain is still sorting it all out.

as im falling down these stairs,
i cried fer help but noone cares,
i keep on tumbling down the open flight,
no sense of heaven in my sight,
the walls lit up by this creepy light,
and hell fires that burn bright,
i have realized im already dead,
all around me death and bloodshed,
horrible thoughts a going fast,
as they race right through my head,
i hit the ground and feel the heat,
rising from this demons feet,
he lets me know how i ended in his domain,
an all about how i came,
my life was shit an i hated it,
an i couldnt take anymore of the pain,
he sends me to eternalviolence,
an not 1 split second of silence,
i hear the screaming an the cries,
but i noticed that im alive,
but the year is 85,
ive started over in this cell,
and i realized that life is my hell.

jus made this one up so it meight not flow,


peace n' bagz

sad facts
we all gonna face
you wake up dead
at the end of this race
your money in stacks
all in place
left for the living
too kick up the pace

what it ends up as
is all up to you
a waisted breeze
dont die on ya knees
saying mutha fuk'r please
let them luagh
and let all sing
choose ya path
but sunburns sting
scream your joy
your hellish rage
get that vioce
out of its cage
dont worry if you think its all crap
cuase trust me i know
i do not rap......

if
yaw can decipher that i will give ya a gold star on ya report cards
haha
