Finally

Info: Yet another poem meant for performance. I loved it so i read it to my two aunts, and my mother. Everybody's liked it so far. I haven't gone through it to edit it yet, so there's a misspelled word here and there. So, in reading...i can't really help cause its so....unstyled, moving from one beat to the next every few lines. But at the beginning, its just like it says, suprised and nervous. Later on talking fast. The at the end, breathless and, amazed. smile I did it so that in the last few, single, lines, i was completely breathless, like i really was going to have an attack. Probably not too helpful. But i hope it helps somebody.



There...over there
its you
oh its you
your coming towards me
holy gods
you smile
i melt
it cant be
that this
wonder of the world
is directed
towards me
Your talking to me ((O.O))
I melt in your smile
and drown in your eyes
And secretly love that thing you do with your hair
every once in a while
Your asking me a question
...
...
Oh god....
have i answered?
oh no
i'm so close to you i can smell your cologne
i'm distracted
no!
think think think
i answer quickly
trying not to let myself sink
into this hole i know
i am digging myself
afraid that you are ancious to go.
And so i start
rambling
rambling
rambling
on and on
about the weather
and laugh
while i ramble about the junk e mail i get
selling items
for a sex life i dont have
oh s**t
did i just mention my sex life?
oH!
I squeeze my eyes shut
afraid to open them and see the look on your face
feeling embarrased at myself.
annoyed and disgraced.
But wait
whats that noise
your laughing
at me?
My eyes peel open
little by little
your laughs are getting louder
as your holding your middle
You say you agree
...((O.O))
you agree
agree with me?
wait.
is that an insult?
something implied against my sex life?
no...i dont think so
i dont want to ask
i smile
nervously
unsure
and doubtful
you look at me
your eyes sparkling
with a type of glee
my heart fills
i feel...amazing
i was so worried until
i figured out
that that world wonder that is
your smile
really was meant for me
and now
and now
at last i see
We spend a while discussing
the crappy emails we get that are
in a single word; discusting
and then, as i confess
that i have to go shop for some
stupid dress
you
ask
for
my
number
my number
I'm breathless
i swear
my mind is a mess
I try and i try
and finally all i can do is nod
and take the pen you offer
scribbling my number on
a slip of paper on the back
of your ipod
You smile at me
i think
im smiling back
oh i hope im smiling back
my body feels so stiff with shock
it could crack
with one last smile and a quick goodbye
As you walk away i wish i could lie
down
somewhere
someone
help
i think
im going
to have
an asthma
attack
just
from talking
to you
finally.

Catch Me If You Can

Info: Um...i'm not entirely happy with how this is written...and the words are kinda...icky. but i like it. so i thought i'd share. *shrug*



Catch me if you can
find me under this heap of emotion
I have buried myself under
find me in the storm
of sadness i wander through
hear me through my minds thunder

Catch me if you can
pull me out of this hole
i have fallen into
pushed by constant thoughts of you
grab my hand and heave me out
hold me tight and whisper
tell me what to do

Catch me if you can
search for me in this jungle
of thoughts from my own mind
help me search this forest
hold my hand as i break down
looking for this calmness that i myself must find

Catch me if you can
please at least understand
I'm here inside my mind somewhere
fighting for control
i've been lost inside my heart
since first i saw your face
but now, being next you and will never have that chance
I've become lost inside my soul
and i feel so out of place

So here I am inside myself
lost without a hope
Afraid for you to find me
so sure that i cant cope
With the thought of your perfect eyes
being the source
of my final demise

So you, my great friend
my eternal dream man
i beg of you to search for me
and catch me if you can

Writers Block

Info: please R&R this. I really like it, but im not sure if others do. So please tell me what you think and let me know what i can do for it. please please please. oh, once again, meant to be read aloud.


I stare at a blank piece of paper
Maybe, a white, glowing, computer screen
My fingers twitch
itching to write, type, click
something
A few lines come
I hasten to bring them down
recording my thoughts before
they dissapear
like a wisp of smoke
The page is no longer blank.
Half empty
Half full
However you want to see it
I see it as....pathetic
but a start
i hope
But then...my thoughts faulter
Once again Im faced with a blank
This time in my mind
I stare into space
thinking hard
My many emotions flood me
spilling over the brim of my heart like a wave
over the docks in the storm of a lifetime.
So many things to say
to think
to feel
to express
But none
to write.
I lean back
in my chair
braindead
When suddenly a thought seizes me
Is this all i can do?
When heart comes to heart
and i need to free the thoughts that form
by transforming them into words
that will flutter from my lips like butterflies
Am i doomed to fail?
Making rocks instead that
tumble from my mouth
resentful
pointless
silly
or ugly
with no true, felt emotions
That instead of freeing me
confine me
torture me with my own insecurities.
Terror grips my heart
as my hand trembles.
A few more letters
words
lines
are put down upon the page.
I stare at them
unnerved
Its no good
I hate it
I start to hate myself
For the lack of
beautfiful
birdlike words that should be
slipping off my tounge
smooth and delicious like ice cream
yet crisp, healing, and amazing like fresh cold water.
I try some excercises.
Taking words from my surroundings
describing them as.."poeticaly" as i can.
It usually goes great.
Blending words together like a smoothie
Ryhming every once in a while to make it
extra smooth
But today...
it isnt working
What i can get down is thick
sweet and sticky like childrens medicine
With that bitter aftertaste of sucralose
that attaches itself to the back of your tounge
makes you sick to your stomache
and gives you a headache like no other.
I have so much I want to say
Why is it so hard
Piecing together my emotions like puzzle pieces
That just wont fit
Those are my words
On my paper
As I sit here
My mind filled with nothing
but rocks
But my heart
filled with every feeling there could possibly be
But no way
to set them free
