Shoebox Poems #7

Dedicated 2U

Could you ever touch me?
Could you ever feel me?
Could you ever kiss me?
Could you ever hold me?

Care again! Love again!

Please come back to us,
You are all of the above!

Shoebox Poems #6

~Part 3~
Love me like you used to
(Complete my empty soul)
Love me like you care
(I want you back 10-fold)

You looked through a window
(I swore I'd never show)
My self-imposed wall crumbled
(Left in shambles below)

Love and intimacy in the form of graffiti
Heartfelt fantasy now made a reality.

Everyday I realize your truth.

Shoebox Poems #5

~Part 1~
Just stop it.
Stop your lies and your deceit!
Stop your shit and your greed!

No more hate; No more cries
No more screams; No more goodbyes

Quit the calling
Quit the denial (I see it!)
Quit the following
Quit the trials (I feel it!)

Be a man - Show me your true colors!
...they're fading gray with these troubles.

RESPECT ME!



~Part 2 ~
Love opened my mind with a blindfold
Making me strong - Heart and soul!

I left you alone (so dark and cold)
I left you in shambles (pieces are sold)

I was your Sunshine: your Morning Light.
You were my Darkness; my Fearful Night.

Powerful together in this great Universe
Beautiful no more, the star has burst

Move on and be whole again!
Don't search life with pain!

The hurt is too much (I'm brought to my knees)
"This too will pass" (the future is foreseen)

I have loved you more than I could fathom
Yet you have left me overcome with sadness...

Shoebox Poems #4

Date Unknown (rev.6/09)

They said I was crazy,
I said I was in love.

I pretend nothing (feeling everything)
I wanted to see him, now and forever...

They said I was blind,
I said I was in love.

I hear him softly (faintly mistaken)
I felt his heart like no one else could...

They said they're worried,
I said I was in love.

A victim of ignorance (growing pains)
Hopeful dreams that would never come true.
