| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/24/2006 4:42:04 AM | I was inspired by someone in here to post one of my writings...I feel if they can voice their feelings then i could do mine...Although what I wrote isn't really a poem..I'm not sure what it is...it was in my head and i needed to get it out...Hope someone takes something from it.... Thanks for reading.....

And you're sitting here staring at his picture...wondering what it'd be like to have him....
Have you ever wanted something so bad you could feel it running through your veins like blood from your head to your toes...not wanting it wouldnt feel right...there'd be something missing..you know??
Well I wanted something that bad..I wanted someone..well at least it was what I thought I wanted.
He was the man every girl dreamed of...the boy next door, who was somewhat of a rebel with a great head of hair. ..............................NAIVE
I suppose he was the man of my dreams then. As pathetic as it sounds I thought I needed him. When you think you need something ..and I mean really need something you'll do anything to get it.When you work that hard to get it, you never wanna let it go.Well I got what I needed..what i thought I needed...but it wasnt what i needed at all...it was different.
Things arent always what they seem.
Dont ever think things are what they seem coz they're not and they'll come back to bite you in the end.
He first started with the drinking "Only on the weekends during nights with the boys" .......LIE Then came the gambling "Only the spare change I have honey" ..........LIE Then came the Hitting "Only when you make me do it" .........LIE?????
You try to tell yourself this is what you wanted what you asked for...what you needed. Then you find yourself drifting away. Imagining the reality you dreamt of instead of facing the reality you have. Remembering when the hurt wasnt there, the lies and the bruises,inside and Out...................You always do scar worse on the inside
And you're sitting there staring at his picture wondering what it would be like to have him. For one brief moment you remember what its like to want something so bad you cant breathe.Then you wake up and you still cant breathe.
Dont ever assume things are what they appear to be because they're not, but maybe someday in this place you go, this world you make as you drift it'll all be right, even for one split second it'll all be perfect.The way you thought the way you dreamed.
Then You Cry. | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/24/2006 6:18:09 AM | In love with the dream Of what it did seem Holding onto the lie from within
As the bad is justified All the things we deride Holding together baron dreams, with a string
It's easy to walk away from the pain Easy to face the new door But harder still to let go of the dream The dream we hold onto within
The dream that we built Justifies the guilt Thrust upon us by all of his blaming
Unable to face That we chose this disgrace So we lie to ourselves and walk lamely
But the dream was a lie The lie we kept loving No matter how hellish it got
The hell was the truth The dream was the trick Time to let go hun, it wasnt true loving

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/25/2006 6:25:22 AM | Hmm here's another......
Every ounce of you shudders with pleasure every time you think of him. You can feel him, inside you, in your head, in your mind, in your heart. This isn't right
You can't stop loving him even though you should. Why would you give anything to feel his hand on your face, his arms around your body and his lips on your mouth? This isn't right
You Dream ...You're there entwined in something that makes your heart melt. Everything he says and does makes you weak, every touch makes you gasp for air.You can feel the blood running in your veins through every part of your body. This isn't right
You realize it won't be right until you're with him.
But you love another.....Is This Right? | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/25/2006 11:04:50 PM | Where would i be without you? Where am I with you? Why do i hurt others to be with you, Why do I hurt myself to be with you? Can you touch my face? Can you hold me close? Can you call me love?
All these questions in my head, you cause so many questions but yet I can't stop being drawn to you. Everything about you makes me question everything i already know.
I want you to be that person, you know, the one who make's me feel like woman, who makes me feel alive. I don't know if they exist, sometimes i don't know if I exist. | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/27/2006 10:20:51 PM | Repost from Nightmares thread...as i want to try to keep these together..:)
I have suffered from incredible horrible nightmares most of my life. I remember being about 14 and getting panic attacks knowing i would have to go to sleep soon.I always felt that someone or something was coming to me at night and putting nightmares in my mind.A black shadow i once pictured...This is for him.
My Nightmare You know I'm afraid and still you come. You know I can do no harm to you and still you come. It feels like some kind of game, how bad can you make me wanna wake up and run away, how much fear can you inflict on a poor girl.
All these visions in my head at night. I'm innocent, I should'nt have these thoughts, these pictures, these words, and feelings.
You haunt me, showing me things no young girl should ever see. You trick me into thinking what i see is real, that what has caused fear for so long can actually come and harm me.
Please stop, please go away, I cannot stand to see anymore shadows, anymore death anymore harm. These things you show me are from the darkest deepest pits of evil's soul and I cannot bare witness to them anymore. This should be done.I am afraid. Afterall that is what you wanted..wasn't it?

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/27/2006 10:24:18 PM | As time goes by, I sit and wonder....am i waiting for life to catch up with me or am I trying to catch up with my life. Everything happened so fast, you know, not that I didn't want it, but did I want it so soon?
Did you ever have something happen to you, where you sit back and say, wow, this is my life, this is something I did, I commited to this...and then wonder why?
Sometimes great things disguise themselves in ugly masks, same can be said for the opposite. What do we do when we find out the truth. Surge ahead, not looking back, find something with great face value....or stay where we are and hope it all works out.
I love being loved..but is that enough? | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/31/2006 1:32:55 AM | It's 5:28am and I can't sleep...Maybe because these thoughts are in my head. It seems recently everything I've been thinking and writing have revolved around the same type of idea or scheme...no sense ignoring it..it does exist..here's what I'm thinking......
I should'nt be thinking of you right now.
I should'nt be thinking of your smile. The smile that tells me how beautiful you are. How happy you make me feel, how incredible it is to smile along with you.
I shouldn't be thinking of your eyes. Those eyes that let me see deep within your soul and tell me there's so much more to you than one person could ever know..it makes me wanna be the person to learn more and bring you away from the things that make you sad.
I should'nt be thinking of your hands. Those hands that have picked up the phone and have called me, just to say I miss you. those hands that with one touch would send my body on fire.
I shouldn't be thinking of your heart. The heart that has opened up and let me in and shown me what it's like to feel alive, excited and wanted more than I ever have before.
I shouldn't be thinking about you..... but I can't stop.....
Are you thinking about me too? | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/31/2006 1:49:02 AM | Awww thanks so much...I appreciate that...Sometimes it's hard to just let out your true feelings, but i've never felt more free than i have since i started writing...
I look at your writing and JD's and Bobby's and Rays, and they all have so much passion and heart...I'm trying to get to that stage..I think right now I'm just trying to sort things out in my head.
Thank You Again..it's muchly appreciated! | |

Posted: 7/31/2006 3:23:42 AM | If I had a dime for every time you walked away i could afford to not give a shit And less think of this over drama shit So i come up empty from your broken shell And i think that i come of it , with an open armour sit So If your gonna be defensive then try Try to see outside the line , Well there you go , you did again Should I apologise with what i say burns the wheel , its dangerous Or should I crack your shell ... With what i say is we exist as well | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/31/2006 3:45:23 AM | 5571 Light of Taurus 31 July 2006
Light of yonder Taurus a dragon to the daily bread Where life has an opening or was that the final door to shut
For who was in charge were rules those to partake As to the Titanic, upon an endangered wind
From the shores of Halifax and those ghostly cries Ever closer, ever louder to hear neither deafness does stir
A night never to forget the Mayflower symbolic This province of Canada and that of Halifax her Canadian home
On 10 April 1912, the RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton, England, on her maiden voyage to New York City, USA. At the time, the Titanic was considered the largest and most luxurious ship ever built (and unsinkable). At 11:40 PM on 14 April 1912, the RMS Titanic struck an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
The loss of the liner Titanic on her maiden voyage was also to involve the people of Halifax, Nova Scotia, located on the eastern coast of Canada. With Halifax, playing an important role during the tragedy’s aftermath and becoming the final resting place of many of her unclaimed victims.
Where once victims were returned to Halifax, a temporary morgue was set up in the Mayflower Curling Rink. When following the Titanic tragedy, 150 Titanic victims were buried in Halifax cemeteries. Nineteen in the Mount Olivet Catholic Cemetery, 10 in the Baron de Hirsch Jewish Cemetery, and 121 are in the Fairview Lawn Cemetery. Of these, 44 remained unidentified.

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 7/31/2006 4:31:53 PM | Stopped by for a visit. You have passion deep inside, as is noticed through your words. Follow your heart.
My advice to you my friend Is let your heart speak For the head is filled with lies Look in your heart for wisdom you seek
Close your eyes and feel Feel it way down deep in your soul And write the picture that you see Let truth take over control
Choose your words that you say Let each one be true And tell the story that your heart speaks The one inside of you
Do not worry or have fear Of what other's think or say For there will be people That enjoys to hurt and run away
Not everyone will like you Those that are filled with hate and lies And try to hurt and bring you down For pettiness does despise
Remember some are scared of others That pose a challenge or threat For shallow hearts and souls Have not learned how to love yet
Feel the words, live the words Bring what's inside to light Because when you are finished Honesty will paint a beautiful sight | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 7:04:30 PM | Something like this then.
Would you love me on a log? Would you love me in a bog? Would you love me in a truck Would you like some making...
No I would not, could not stand this ceaseless rip off, poet man...d.
Would you like love on a page? A portion of my daily wage? A simple painless, frugal hug... I will not bite, I will not bug.
I hate you, I hate you poet man, a pox on all yours spawned from hand. I wish you banished from the land. Stupid stupid poet man...d.
Come on now give me a chance! I'm a knight in armor, complete with lance, I bow, I scrape, I twirl, I dance. Your beauty makes me surrender, Just like France.
No never, ever little slime, Your days and life are wasted time, No never, ever, even in Paris Perhaps you should look up that popular heiress.
SO you see I will not ever find my love, A heartless heart, a burlap glove, No flight for this cemented dove But when it all comes push to shove.... Who needs her anyway? WHOO-HOO!
( Basho! Banana tree! )

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 7:37:00 PM | ---Thanks for the poem weaverof...very different...creative..i liked it. Still searching for what it means to me...but that just means i get to read it over a lot more times!!:)
Here's one I've had thought about for awhile..my mother and I never had the greatest relationship..here's a poem for her...
Mother..why do you pick up that bottle, instead of hugging me at night? Why do you do the things you do that you tell me aren't right?
Why must I clean up the mess you made, while taking so many pills? Why am I the one to blame when you say you are ill?
Why did you hurt me so bad on my very special day? Why did you do the things you did to push me and my sister away?
Why can't you stop this and cast those addictions aside? Why can't you pretend you're our mom and act like you have some pride?
So many things unanswered, so many bad things are true I just hope when I have kids, I won't turn out like you. | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 7:45:48 PM | wow tina, you inspired me to try to write a poem, dont make fun at me its my first try lol :D.
=====================================================================
Once I came to see Then I came to be A long came a mind I couldn't leave behind Deep thoughts of hope Shows I could have controlled Some actions ill never know Some thoughts I never show Soon to be free Living up to me From trusting my morals To looking good at formals ===================================================================== | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 7:55:57 PM | | cassidy182--Thought provoking words. You speak for many persons with those words. Both mother and daughter and father and son. I suspect that that was difficult to say due to the personal nature of it. You seemed to have acknowledged the error of the ways of your mother and since you recognized them you stand a better opportunity of not repeating it. A suggestion is if you have children, take five minutes each day and dedicate it to thinking about your actions for the day to see if you are beginning to follow in your mother's footsteps. It does help to do that. | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 8:02:10 PM | Wow postmark.....it's very good and meaningful. I really enjoyed it and would never make fun of someone for posting a poem.. I am honored that you said I have inspired you to write a poem..didn't even think that would happen. Thank you again and please keep posting.
JD - You always make me feel so good about my writing..i can't thank you enough for without encouragement from you and some other posters on this site I probably would've given up. I appreciate you taking the time to comment and let me know what you think..as your opinion does mean something to me. Thank You. That writing was hard but had to be said..I will take time when i do have children. I have learned alot from my mother without her even knowing. | |

| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/1/2006 10:55:18 PM | | Good..keep em coming...and *ahem* yes i am pretty cool aren't I?? *shines nails on shirt* HAHAHAHHAHA Nah I'm just a normal ol Lame-O | |
|
| So I was Inspired by Someone..... Posted: 8/2/2006 8:48:38 AM | So here goes, as I said i would.
If I were a fruit I would be, the weirdest thing you ever did see. Big, round, with spots all all about, when you taste me you lose all doubt.
I am good, but not overly so, So here is a bit i think you should know.
I am tall and have a working brain, as some already know i love the rain. I hate people who think that they are all that, but there is probably more personality in my hat. I love to talk with all my friends, helping them to cope, and make amends. They are my life, my true family, what I love the most is they see the real me. They look past my deficiencies, most of all my looks. To get to know me, you need to know little about books.
I love movies, and hanging out at clubs. I enjoy a fine night out at the local pub. I appear at first a little bit shy, but if you get to know me, I am a good guy.
So I guess this would be inspired by me, and peoples reactions to myself. *told you it had to rhyme Tina* | |
