poem--- it's part of me

And is this it?
Can this be all?
Silently screaming-
Torn in two

I need to wait-
Wait this out;
It's going to end;
Soon... right?

Just help me--
Just help.
Thats all.
All I really need

But now I look.
I look,
And I see-
It's all so very clear

I can't forget,
But I just-
just won't remember.
All that pain

It clings to me;
Burrowing in.
Inseparable.
It's part of me

Will there be...
A new arrival-
A new part-
My completion?

Pain must flee;
Flushed out-
Replaced
From now on

Love sits in
But will...
Will it stay?
(Please stay)

Yet there's more-
Love fights love;
for that part.
Can both be?

One from the past-
Yet I can't see
If it's wrong.
Or my future

And is this it?
Can this be all?
Silently screaming-
Torn in two...

poem--- strawberries

Is this beginning the birth of me?
Or merely a pass through death?
There are many things I wish I could see
That are hidden by my breath.

I Want to venture all round the world
But I'm chained forever here
From this cage I wish I were hurled
But I'm locked in by my fear.

You stand outside with eyes of gold
And shining heart to match
But as I look in, I behold
A gaze I cannot catch.

But I observe and remember
A forgotten time untold
When fueled by love's lone ember
Your being i would hold.

Now you turn and walk away
Giving your hair a toss
How I wish you would please stay
My fear replaced with loss.

poem--- peachy

Why can't he just get a grip?
His life will continue to slip.
Now with friends at his side,
Why must he incessantly hide?

poem--- get a grip

Rapids disrupt my calm flow of life,
Changing tides cause me much strife;
Now a boat torn to desolate shreds,
I'm a spinning wheel without any treads;

Watch as we continue to stare and fawn,
God grant that this river may crawl on;
Lost within infinite gaps and spaces,
I can't remember all of the faces.

poem--- feign

Approach me,
Dictate your pain;
Reproach me,
Insults like rain;
Please don't lie,
Your interest so feign;
Hate must die,
Let's kill my pain.

poem--- forgive me father

In the name of God,
They repent their sin;
With their kin unshod,
How can they grin?
