Sometimes I write poetry when I'm feeling blue... or when I'm feeling happy...

JOURNEY TO THE STARS

The stars gaze gently down on me,
Do they here my silent plea?
My wish to fly high and free.
I heave a sorrowful sigh,
As I watch the moon enter the sky,
I would go there if I could fly.
Oh, to feel the wind in my face,
To trace the galaxies with fingers of lace,
And challenge a comet to a race.
Oh, I wish this could be so,
But not in the world we know,
If you have an imagination though...

SOMETIMES

Sometimes things happen that are not ment to be
Things that do not really come from me
Like waves they crash not to be stopped
I cry at my best
And hide my tears
When it comes to the worst
I hide my fears
Sometimes things happen that are not ment to be
Do not use those moments to judge me

WHAT IS PAIN?

What's Pain?
Aching heart
Terrible loss
Tears
Hurtful memories
Infinite remorse
That's Pain

YOU SAY

You say you known how I feel
You say you want to help
But you don't know how I feel
How can you help
When every time I look at you
Tears spring to my eyes
Does that help?
Every time you glance at me
I feel my heart shattering in my chest
Does that help?
I wish I could sit in your lap again and cry into your shoulder
I wish that could help but it won't
I suppose the pain is inevitable
It comes with life
So instead of morning
Cherish every moment you have to live
Because you won't live forever

THE RAIN

I hear the thunder,
Sound of wonder.
I feel the rain on my face,
falling down soft as lace.
I see the lightning in the sky,
Magical fire way up high.
I smell the damp earth,
as the rain falls for all it's worth.
I taste the cool fresh air,
So full of beauty so rare.
I know monsoon season is here,
I know the rain is near.

YOU KNOW THAT FEELING?

You know that feeling?
The feeling of uselessness?
The feeling that whatever you do you won't make a difference?
You may not
But I do
I know that feeling,
That feeling of uselessness,
That feeling of not making a difference
I know it well
Too well
Do you?

I WISH

I wish I was a river
A sparkling blue gem
So I could go around the rocks of life
Instead of going through them

I wish I was a mountain
Sturdy and strong for all to see
So people would not tell me who I was
And I could be who I wanted to be

I wish I was a cloud
Flying high and free
So I could look in a mirror
And see the true feelings inside of me

Don't we all wish?

YOU ARE SPECIAL

Never forget,
You are special,
There are so many people in the world,
Like all of the stars in the sky but...
Never forget,
When you look closely each one is a brilliant sun.
Never forget,
You are loved,
At times you may not feel like it but trust me,
you are.
Never forget,
You are individual,
One of a kind,
Like a snowflake,
No two are alike.

This poem is for those who forget
This poem is to remind you life is worth living
This poem is to remind you the world can be forgiving

They are pretty short...
