First things first is what he said
I'll lay out how your day will start
(just great I thought with dread)
and what you'll do before I depart
So up you'll be at 5am
to welcome the day and me
60 minutes working out then
its time to get ready
shower, shave, and fix your hair
and dont forget to put make-up on
(nothing to say I sit and stare
I'm nothing but this man's pawn)
Don't have to cook breakfast
but it sure would be nice
(ya I've heard that in the past
and know if I don't I'll pay the price)
the children will then be woken
so he can see their sleepy faces
and his words will be spoken
so they forget not their places
then after a kiss at the door
he'll be ready to leave
(I'm just happy he won't want more
and so filled with relief)
to be continued.... | |

Now for a run down of what I'll do
and how the week will go
when work is through
is what he said... just so you know...
He'll play basketball on Monday
and Tuesday is set aside for golf
he'll have friends over Wednesday
and I'm to watch my mouth
Thursday he'll stay in
(but I won't being going out)
and Friday night his friend
will once again be about
Saturday and Sunday
he'll do what he wants
(regardless of what I say
there won't be any arguments
I'm to smile and look happy
after all he worked all week
'tis only fair of course I agree
as for me... my life looks bleak)

Posted: 12/9/2006 7:25:08 PM | I loved reading the poems. I have one of mine to share if that's ok?
I always stand tall,
I see it all.
Alone in the park,
In light or dark
You whisper and cry,
I'm empty inside.
I can't do a thing,
I can't grow wings.
Your laughter and pain,
a pathway to insane.
I hear it once more,
you hold a key to that door.
You think I'm strong as steel,
your heart lets your hand feel.
In my silence is my screams,
In your scream were your dreams.
I can only be here,
for your fears.
as for me, not much I can do,
as you see I'm just a statue. | |

PAGES OF PROMISES,AND THE PAGES OF SIN,
WHERE DO THE WORDS OF MY PAGES BEGIN
WE LEARNED TO SURF,AT AN EARLY AGE,
THAT FOR ME ,WAS A VERY OLD PAGE,
TO SKI DOWN THE MOUNTAIN,AS FAST AS THE WIND,
THE PAGE OF LIFE, WHERE ADULTHOOD BEGAN,
TO THE LOVE AND THE JOY,OF TWO DAUGHTERS I HOLD,
THE PAGES OF THAT TIME, ARE WRITTEN IN GOLD,
A HOME IN THE MOUNTAIN,TOWARDS THE BACK OF THE HILL,
A PAGE IN MY LIFE , THAT WILL NEVER BE FILLED,
TO NEW LOVE,OLD LOVE,AND LOVE WITHOUT MEANS,
THE PAGES OF MY LIFE,HELD IN MY DREAMS,
MY WORDS THAT ARE WHISPERED, TO NOW ENPTY WALLS,
TO PAGES OF LIFE,WHERE MEMORIES ARE CALLED ,
THE TIMES THAT I SMILE, AND TIMES THAT I CRY,
JUST PAGES OF LIFE,AND THE YEARS GONE BY | |

Now he says we'll talk about
you and what you must do
so there aren't any doubts
of what's expected of you....
First things first
I must quit school
(for me that was the worst
and utterly cruel)
find a new place to work
where I'll get more hours
(then he said with a smirk)
what you make won't be yours
its mine to keep and do as I see fit
and I won't complain or whine
I'll be home no later then six
he'll expect me to be on time
I have to make dinner
and take care of the children
(boy did I marry a winner
more like a warden)
no more baths every night
he says its way to excessive
says once a week they might
(isn't that impressive)
no more tucking them in
just say goodnight and send em to bed
and no more cleaning
after seven he said
but I'm not to have a dirty house
I must also lose weight
(oh he is such a louse)
and no more staying up late
I'll go to bed when he does
so no more using the computer
no reason he says, just because
(basically I must act better)
I must also have a tan
no matter the time of year
(yes this is my life, his plan
he's made that very clear)
and no more evening shopping sprees
he'll give me an hour once a week
he’s says that ought to be a breeze
(I think I've married a freak)

The Final Chapter
I listened to all he had to say
and took a few days to let it sink in
it was time to decide if I would stay
and give this marriage a shot again
what was wrong with me that I ended up here
I thought to myself as I considered his demands
and finally my answer to him was clear
my life was finally within my own hands
no longer did he have a hold on my heart
and I was sure I could never go back
should have known it from the start
but confidence I sorely lacked
so I drew up the courage to give him my reply
but first there was a question I just had to ask
before I knew for sure I could tell him good-bye
then perhaps it would be my turn to take him to task...
what about you I said, what will you change
to help this marriage work and be strong
he looked at me with shock as if I were strange
and pondered his answer but not for long
then he told me "I've nothing to fix,
the problem isn't me, its always been you!"
and I thought to myself men are such pricks
so please forgive me but I'm through
be it a sin or not I'll no longer stay
in a marriage with a man such as this
not for another year, not even another day
I don't care how much everyone insists
I need not your money, I will make my own
doing what I want not what you say
I don't need your so called friendship I'd rather be alone
and well the sex... it was never that great any way
my children don't need you their fine with just me
you were never around to be a father
and I'm sure you will agree
we were always to much of a bother
so get the fvck out don't sit there and blink
I'm telling you now this aint leave it to beaver
and regardless of whatever you may think
I won't be your b1tch; I'm no June Cleaver!!!
The End... for now...
Sorry if anyone was offended... not often I swear in my poetry but sometimes... well its just the way the words come out....

Posted: 12/12/2006 6:33:30 PM | I'll smile and wink to draw you in
tell you how pretty I think you are
and when you talk I'll pretend to listen
I'll open up doors and help you into the car
and send flowers just to say thinking of you
I'll call you each night and we'll have long talks
and I'll ask you about your days when there through
I'll take you for romantic late night walks
make wishes on the stars beneath the moon
and I'll whisper words of love in your ear
and be patient when you say its too soon
and I'll make it sound completely sincere
I'll say and do anything I must
'til your completely absorbed
and I've gained your trust
just so I can get you into my bed
but now I'm through so run along girl
all I wanted you for was the sex
you were just a toy that I gave a whirl
so run along girl I've gotta see who's next..... | |

Posted: 12/12/2006 7:12:09 PM | Tenz honey... thats enough to give an epileptic a sezuire...ugh!
Hey caly, promised i'd be over..here i am, smiles. lets see what i can find in my magic book for your new home..
"Two Roses"
She asked for a rose for Christmas
nothing more did she want to have
and as i looked all around me at the snow
i began to feel really bad
Where was i to find a rose for grandma
at this dismal snowfalling time of year
I didnt have the money to buy one
and granny wouldnt understand i fear
for granny was in the hospital
for those who cant care for themselves
and unfortionately it wasnt the eggnog
that made my grandma think she saw elves
the snowfall began to fall heavily
as i made my way slowly to work
i really didnt make very much to live on
and lately my boss seemed like a jerk
when i arrived at the front door
shaking off the snow and the cold
my boss was sitting quietly at my desk
looking like he felt very old
Whyspr we have to talk he said
i'm afraid i have to let you go
there just isnt enough money
you know business has been very slow
i left the office in a daze
things had just gone from bad to worse
i now had barely enough money
for the rent left in my purse
as i walked the streets in shock
not knowing quite what to do
i found myself outside the church
i'd gone to with granny, a time or two
i entered the house of the Lord
and found a quiet place to sit down
I bowed my head to pray to God
with a smile on my face, not a frown
Dear God i want to thank you
for another year with my grandma
i know its been hard on her lately
especially since the death of grandpa
and Lord if you could take the time
would you do what you can for my boss
he worked hard all his life for his business
and i hate to see him suffer such loss
and thank you God for this lovely warm church
where i can go when im feeling a bit down
and thank you for the life of your son Jesus
and the ever lasting love and peace i have found
before i go Lord, if i could ask a favor
could you help me find a rose for my gran?
and if ones not to be found dear God
can you help me make grandma understand
i sat in the church a little longer still
it seems i had fallen asleep in the pew
and when i woke a bit later with a start
laying next to me.. was not one rose..but two
a note lay next to the roses on the bench
i looked around me to see who was there
not another soul was inside the church
at the roses..all i could do was stare...
i picked up the note that lay with them
and read the simple words on the letter
one rose for your dear loving grandma
the other for you, i hope things get better
the next morning was christmas day
and i took grandma her beautiful rose
her eyes filled up with tears as she said
grandpa always gave me one like those
I went to the church after my visit
and listened to the Christmas service
after which i went to talk to the father
feeling more than a little bit nervous
He didnt know anything about the roses
but when he heard i had just lost my job
he said he was looking for a receptionist
and asked would i like working for God?
i dont know how you feel about religion
i know some things just cant be explained
i now had a new job for a great boss
and my old boss is doing business again
those simple prayers being answered
are easy enough for all to comprehend
but the appearence of two roses in winter??
welllll...all i can say is..........Amen | |

Posted: 12/12/2006 11:37:22 PM | hello my so-called father
do you know who i am
do you recall my mother
or what you did back then...
did you really enjoy
the pictures you saw
of what you created as a boy
when you broke the law...
does the burden of your sin
way heavily on your soul
does it torment you from within
or have you forgotten your role
and the part you played
in my conception...
are you ever afraid
they'll learn of your deception...
just what would you do
if I knocked upon your door
and made my debut
to those you adore... | |

Under the warmth
Of the sun
And the blue
Of the sky
Or the black
Of the night
By the light
Of the moon
My love forever
Grows for you. | |

Posted: 12/13/2006 11:08:45 PM | First doctors visit
First immunizations
First night slept through
First airplane ride
First words uttered
First time to crawl
First steps and stumbles
First lost tooth
First emergency room visit
First day at school
First conferences
First plays
First concerts
First crush
First dance
First vacation
so many firsts
you were never
a part of
moments in time
lost to you forever | |

brain in such a mess
nothing but emptiness | |

Posted: 12/17/2006 12:06:28 PM | Dear Caly,
Dissapointed be not!
Sometimes we have no thoughts nor words to share
when at the bottom of our souls
new food is being cooked.
"Celestial Jewel"
Once I had a dream
that I was real
until your smile told me
it should be more than an ideal
My soul overloaded with worries
and from life a thousand of stories
can only be graciously carried
by the lightness of these words
Show me that love even when
tentatively it carries pain
it is not a heavy story
as to be heard time and again
But let yourself be more than
a beautiful tale
and unto me unwrap your heart
as the offer of a precious gift
for me to exclaim in awe:
"This treasure is a celestial jewel
more valuable than the one in my dream!"

Posted: 12/17/2006 9:26:40 PM | thank you PoetFriend for once again stopping in, for your words of encouragement and your beautiful poem =) almost feel bad tainting it by following it with one so dreary :/
I'm nothing.....
my strength is gone
I've nothing left
no reason to go on
love I cannot feel
he darkened my soul
carved out my heart
left nothing but a hole
though I try and try
I've nothing to give
nothing to share
no reason to live | |
