Here's my little collection of poems all written by yours truly. Enjoy!
----------
The Feeling of Love
You can hear the thump of my heart
You can see the sweat gliding down my forehead
My face is flushing slowly as you move closer
The feeling of love
Love can bring you joy for the rest of your life
Or leave a scar marked on your heart
The feeling of love
An inescapable feeling
A feeling of great content
But when taken away from you
A feeling of sorrow
The feeling of love
Don't break my heart
Don't throw my compassion away
Don't leave my side ever again
Due to this feeling of love
----------
Never Again
I've made the worst possible choices
And I ignored all of the little voices
telling me to turn back
I betrayed those who cared about me
I couldn't notice that I couldn't see
That my life had gotten completely off track
But never again will I hurt the ones I love
Never again will I do the things I've done
For it will only bring me to the wrong path
Never again will I turn to those who'll use
My talents to only hurt and abuse
This sacrafice represents both my love and wrath
I understand if you can't forgive me
What I did was low and foul
But find it in your hearts to see
Never again will I let you down
----------
Don't Turn Back
There are too many things
That you've already done
For you to just take a step backwards
I'll give you a push forward
Hold your head up straight
What will people think
When they see you slouching down that road
To victory?
You're going down the right path
Don't even think
Of turning back
No one knows their destiny
So create your own while you have the chance
Give yourself the courage
To get up when you fall
Always know that you're not alone
You'll have friends watching you're back
With all these advantages
Don't even think of
turning back
So many sacrifices made
So many dreams molded together
To set you down the path
Have confidence and trust
And whatever you do. . .
Don't turn back
---------
Destiny
A funny thing, destiny
No one knows what it is
Yet our lives is set by it
Some don't believe in
destiny
Some make sacrifices to
know what their's is
A funny thing, destiny
It can mean finding who you love
Or facing your greatest tragedy
Some don't get what they expect
And spend the rest of their
lives without confidence
A funny thing, destiny
I believe that destiny
But I don't believe that people
Can't control their own
Stop griping about fate
Do what you want
You can create your own destiny
Just do what you want
Do what you please
You'll find your destiny
Soon enough
But for now, be released
From these chains of sorrow
And be free to do what you will
Destiny. . .
It's all yours
---------
These Tears Fall For Them
In bed crying again
Tears roll onto my pillow
Sobbing for them again
Too bad they can?t see
Feeling sorry for them again
Trying to push the thoughts out of my mind
But they won?t budge
Struggling to get over it again
These tears fall for them
It?s just too bad they don?t know
Saying ?I love you? again
But the same position remains
Shouting to the darkness again
And just like last time
There?s no response
These tears fall for them
It?s just too bad they can?t hear me weeping
Doing the same routine again
But it doesn?t make any difference
Why can?t they listen?
Why can?t they hear?
I?m tired of crying in my sleep again
These tears fall for them once again
And forevermore
---------
Live
Love the life your living
Live while you still can
Try your hardest to become
What you've always wanted
Do whatever you please
And please whoever you can
Give to those who gave to you
Love those who loved you
Forget your troubles
Forget your worries
And feel free anytime you want
Close your eyes
Take a deep breath
And feel yourself flying
Question those with answers
And answer those with questions
Make mistakes
Do your best
Do whatever you want
Without fear of perfection
Bring joy to those who need it most
Savor the good times
And learn from the bad
Create wonderful memories
For many years to come
See what couldn't be seen
Hear what couldn't be heard
Touch what couldn't be touched
Do the impossible
And dream of the possibilities
Live

R. R. R.
The chains of the swings of our joy
That we adored playing on so much
Have rusted beneath our fingers
And have left us to fall in the mud
The fences of greater days
That we climbed in laughter
Have toppled over and left us with a mess
The homes of our childhood
Of which we treasured whole-heartedly
Have been washed and blown away
Leaving us on deserted ground
Children's giggles have turned to sobs
And their smiles to frowns
Lives of the ones we loved
Lay at our feet in eternal rest
Broken boards of depression
And stolen goods of greed
Straying in the dark for days
Only memories to light the present
The proud who used to stand tall
Have collapsed in tears
Bewildering the young that looked up to them
The media displaying our crushed dreams
With the songs of misery
Bring us a smile
Bring us hope
Bring us the joy we long for
To rebuild is to have faith
So bring us your faith
Enrust it with us
Rebuild, relief, renew
----------
The Son of Rage and Love
Many nightmares will haunt you
No matter where you turn
You made these mistakes yourself
And now the concequences taunt you
You were living in hell to start with
Running away didn't seem to help
You came back with a broken heart
You had on your face, a broken smile
And now you're trying to fix your broken home
The tales of your journey are filled with lies
Lies of yourself, lies of your life
Trying to double your true person
And the lies were trusted by your "friends"
The underbelly of your temptation
Your nameless love
The one you treasured greatly
Was forgotten
Burning in your face
Turning into smoke and vanishing
Too late to say goodbye
It's already gone
Your footsteps wander aimlessly through your past
Your true home was never found
All that waiting
And you found nothing
Just your own mistakes
All your screaming was never heard
Pretending it never happened
Will only create bigger nightmares
Wake up from your daydream
This is reality
Make the best of it
Before you miss it
Welcome to the story of your agony
Hope you found yourself
