I Am
I am creative and complicated.
I wonder what I want to be.
I hear the laughter of my dreams.
I see my future in the distance.
I want to find myself.
I am creative and complicated.
I pretend to know who I am.
I feel defeated when I can't make the right choice.
I touch the clouds, only to fall out of their reach.
I worry about everyone but myself.
I cry when my faults are shown.
I am creative and complicated.
I understand I am not perfect.
I say that no one is.
I dream that one day I can be.
I try to make room for myself in this world.
I hope that one day I can.
I am creative and complicated.
Repetition:
Hello?
Hello?
Is anybody there?
All I hear is the dial tone.
All I am is scared.
Hello?
Do you know who I am?
Do you know what's become of me?
All I want is to be saved.
All I need is to leave.
Hello?
Why am I alone?
Why don't you ever answer?
Why don't you pick up the phone?
Hello?
Can you help me?
I used to be full,
But now I am empty.
Hello?
All I hear is a song
Called silence
For everyone is gone.
imagery:
Stars
Stars twinkle in the darkness,
Glittering, gleaming, golden
They call out to me
Beautiful, bright tokens.
I leap out of my window,
Reaching out to touch the sky
Dancing, daring, dreaming
And it makes me feel
Like the stars will never be leaving.
But daytime comes,
And the sky is bare
But for a shining sun
The stars are no longer there
But I know that tonight,
The stars will come once more
So I may dance with them,
As I had the night before.
FORCED rhyme:
Hourglass
Hourglass
Filling fast
Runnin' out of time
Time's a-tickin'
Sand a-spillin'
Runnin' out of time
Tick-a-tock
Goes the clock
Runnin' out of time
Gettin' dizzy
Goin' crazy
Runnin' out of time
Tick-a-tock
Goes the clock
Runnin' out of time
I Had The Weirdest Dream...
i had the weirdest dream
ONE THAT I CAN NEVER FORGET
it all started one night
and gave me quite a fright
it was set in black and white
a beautiful, classy sight
everyone was watching me
my heart was beating
a man appeared with a gun drawn
the seemingly innocent con
but i woke up before i could see
the plan this dream had for me
limerick:
Broken Heart
there was a young lady whose heart
could just not seem to start
they tried to revive her
but she would not stir
so is the fate of a broken heart
free verse:
Teardrops
Teardrops drip like rain on a window,
Forming sorrow over a darkened land.
I cannot seem to comprehend
Why sadness has become a part of me,
Why I know it better than the back of my hand.
Silence can be the most peaceful thing,
But sometimes it's unbearable
And all I hear now is the
Drip
Drip
Drip
Of the tears hitting the unforgiving floor.
end rhyme:
Hurt
Who do you think you are?
Your words are whispering torment
And leave a bleeding scar.
You smile sweetly at me,
And then leave me with your car.
You used to be so beautiful,
But now you're a fading star.
You said you'd never leave me,
But you're still hurting me from afar.
The End
