Almost 8 Year Old Poetry

So, I forgot I had a live journal until someone reminded me via facebook.  LOL!  Forget throwback Thursday.  Throwback Monday.

Is it bad I think I was a better writer when I was younger.  Maybe the angst was kinda okay?

Nobody knows...

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;  does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;  bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.  Love never fails.

Those this verse talks mostly bout Agape (brotherly) love.  Remember you were, at the start, my friend.  And yes, one person will read this and know who I am talking about.  So what?  Here is my solace in life. 

Love suffers long: I would wait for you
Love is kind: I want you to be happy
Love does not envy: Our relationship was not perfect, but I never needed another
Love does not parade itself: I'm not perfect
Love is not puffed up: You're not perfect
Love does not seek it's own: I wanted to give you everything, with no expectation of return
Love is not provoked: I never wanted to start a fight
Love thinks no evil: I never thought badly of you
Love does not rejoice in iniquity: I'm sorry for everything I ever did wrong
Love rejoices in the truth: to love you is not a punishment, to be away from you is
Love bears all things: no matter what you do I will never stop loving you
Love believes all things: I believe in you, that's all that matters
Love hopes all things: I hope you'll come back to me
Love endures all things: But if you don't I won't change or hate you
Love never fails: and no matter who or what happens I will always love you with all of my heart

1 am poetry

There's feeling alone

And where you left me

The only thing I have

Is this chain of memories

The warmth burns me so

And it all smells like you

It feels like someone

It still feels like truth

There's nothing you can do

To make me change

No reasons no signs

Can make me rearrange

The stitchings and inner workings

Of this human heart

Just another sad Saturday

To make my happy start

I hold on the past

Remembering the weight

How hard it is still

To let go so late

I won't move on

For just a moment more

No one need know

The things I'm begging for

There's nothing you can do

To make me change

No reasons no signs

Can make me rearrange

The stitchings and inner workings

Of this human heart

Just another sad Saturday

To make my happy start

The salt still waters my garden

Happiness cools the heart

Another beat, another week

Now to play the part

There's nothing you can do

To make me change

No reasons no signs

Can make me rearrange

The stitchings and inner workings

Of this human heart

Just another sad Saturday

To make my happy start

One more writing for...

I had another dream about you last night
I can't believe what I saw there
You smiled at me like you hadn't in so long
I had to smile in my sleep

I had another dream about you last night
I can still remember the chill
You touched my hand like you hadn't in so long
I trembled uncontrollably til I woke

I had another dream about you last night
You held me for a little while
You held me like you hadn't in so long
I was left breathless and warm

I had another dream about you last night
You can still take my breath away
You kissed me like you hadn't in so long
That I cried for want of the dream

I had another dream about you last night
No more, no less, but sure
You loved me in my dreams like you hadn't in so long
I don't want to wake up again

Another day I just feel like writing

I can say it over and over
Repeat it til I think it's true
Recite it just like it's a fact
I can make everyone a fool

I make my mind believe it
I say it before I go to sleep
I push the thought out of my mind
I ignore the fantasy

I can whisper the word to just anyone
They'll believe it just the same
I can cry out to anyone
I can call out any name

I really haven't lied to anyone
What I say is entirely true
I can love him for the rest of my days
But I just can't keep from loving you

I see his eyes, I kiss his mouth
His scents still sweeter than yours
But I still can taste the bitterness
The still soft bitterness I long for

Bored...sad...feel like writing

I swear it was a dream last night
When I woke up and thought of you
I must admit you have never ever startled me awake
Your image never made me feel so naked and deprived
Couldn't sleep, couldn't dream

I felt so lost when I got your message
My brain couldn't grasp a syllable
Now I am waiting like a man on his last hope
Praying that what you said wasn't true
I'm sorry, I know I did this to you

Couldn't understand you on the receiver
Guess the bourbon rotted your sense away
I still wonder if the bottle was empty after the call
I think I needed to burn out my senses too
Just waiting, I'm just waiting

I just want to hear from you
Just want to hear you were a dream
Just want to think that maybe you were my temporary relief
The short lived attraction to bring me back to reality
I just want to go back to sleep, I just want to go back to sleep

Wow!

I guess just for the heck of it some poetry is necessary...

Welcome to my world
Population one or thousands
Depending on the time of day
Welcome to my daydream
Where the monsters feed
Lusting for my sanity
Welcome to my nightmare
Where all is logic
I feel nothing but numb
Welcome to my mind
Where the daylight
is never shone
Welcome to my world
Where many fear
and never tread
Welcome my dearest weary one
Welcome to the land
Where sanity is dead

Yeah I know it's crap...like I said the PA dept pulls a lot out of me...
