Shy
I don't know what to do anymore
She just seems to far away
I still try to get closer
But I keep pushing myself away
I knew I should have jumped for it
When I had the chance
She would have gave me an answer that
Ended in a "Yes"
But everyday I saw her
I couldn't grab that courage
To walk right up and ask
Something without wordage
It has now ended
Thus she's with a another guy
I wonder what could have been
I guess I was just to shy
Joe
A Teardrop
A teardrop rolls down his cheek,
rain pours into a puddle,
calm water splashes it's way down the stream,
the river rages along it's path,
and the ocean's exploding,
not looking back.
The water so warm,
it's like a volcano busting without regret,
and his anger is bursting as he tries to hold back,
but he can't.

Cold Morning
On my way to all my dreams
I can see all the bright lights
I can taste the fame upon the air
The fear and the dreams.
On my way to happiness
An overdraft abroad
Leave the world without a care
The fear and the ambition.
One way ticket to acknowledgement
Ticket with no return
Become a superstar of the underworld
Follow me to fame.
No return from the 59
Bus driver take me home
To the tall can fires and the dirty streets
Where everyone knows my name.
Mondracon
Dream Catcher
I fly right up into the face of the sky
pass through its nostrils
shoot through the stars
past crumbling planets
With wings made of paper and brass rings
shadow inside, fire outside
mating together
into ash and soot
I carry a web of glass and iron
and a heavy silk-bound book
that writes itself
in embroidered sigils
weaves spider pathways
across the mouth of the cosmos
shutting up the patter of feet
stilling the rotations of galaxies
silencing the universe
So that words can be dropped
like silver coins
pearl earrings
squirming ants
Into the still cold waters
of Wishing.

A priests Epiphany
I led a long life of regret,
Following that "Book of Death".
I first read it in that motel room,
After my girl left me to live in a pit of doom.
Waiting, waiting, forever waiting,
For my prayers to come true.
Waiting, waiting, forever waiting,
To have what withdrew.
As I read it page by page,
I felt as if I was freed from a cage.
The Prodigal son promised my prayers would come true,
So I prayed to gain back the girl that said adieu.
Waiting, waiting, forever waiting,
For my prayers to come true.
Waiting, waiting, forever waiting,
To have what withdrew.
As I laid alone on my deathbed,
Alone, malnourished and underfed.
I realized why I felt such grief,
It was all because I followed those illogical beliefs.
Haroken
Eternity
Cold, rumbling stone
Echoes among the clouds
Peering throug endless eternity
I can only leave myself
Soaring high and into freedom
Feelings long since forgotten,
Now return gracefully.
As I saw love in the rise
Now is nothing but hate
As I spiral downwards.
Cold, Rumbling Stone
Peering through existence
Feeling lost, now gone.
...I have returned.

Pulse
For Misty,
Do you feel my heartbeat?
Blood gushes through my body,
it beats for you and only you.
I feel your touch,
excitment warms my fingertips as they glide down your sensuous skin,
my lips pucker and moisten as they draw closer to yours,
muscles tighten as you pull me close,
my mind flutters as your hips heave against mine,
eyes like the October moon penetrate my very essence,
they close slowly into the night.
Am I dead or am I alive? Or is this happiness?
My heart beats to the rythm of your voice,
saying yes, yes, yes.
OMG, way too many good poems this month, I'll lose for sure. Anyways, vote for your favorate.
