hello, my name is Kirimi, and i wrote this for my siblings...

Brand New Day


Hello,
The beginning of a day,
Before the storm comes this way,
And wreaks its havoc,

Good bye,
Before the storm can get you,
I feel it’s all I can do,
And still you’re hurt,

Sorry,
I wasn't there to catch him,
And now I’m rotting in my skin,
I feel so decayed,

Fearless,
Something I cannot be,
In this tide of uncertainty,
But I’ll try,

Living,
That’s all I’m doing now,
Still wondering why and how,
Boy you know I miss you,

Brother,
The day you died I got lost,
What’s living if pain is what it costs,
That was what was wrong with me,

Sister,
I know you'll keep him company,
And protect him from what I can't see,
On top that cemetery hill,

Today,
I know you want me to live it,
I’ll avoid deaths trap pit,
Even if I cry every step of the way,

Maybe,
We’ll be together,
Maybe for now and forever,
Your big sister loves you

Emi,
A beautiful china doll who died,
A little infant girl with confusion in her eyes,
Only nine months old,

Jamie,
A nature boy who was full of life,
So sweet and loving to all alive,
Was 13 years too young to go,

Kiri,
Older sister of the two,
Who has lost her closest friends its true,
And yet she goes on living
.

Hello, I am Tabitha Noir. This is a poem about a man who wants his lover back.



-Needed-


You were so nice, so kind,

But we have just fallen apart.

How could I have been so blind?

I loved you with all my heart.

I don’t know where to go now,

We needed one and other.

I don’t know what happened and how,

Just one more chance, give me another.

Together we were strong,

Apart we are weak.

I don’t know where I belong,

I forgot how to speak.

Won’t you call me on the phone?

I want to hear you say hello.

I want my mouth to be unsown,

I want to see your face glow.

I thought our love was all lies,

Like a face hidden in a masquerade.

But before our love dies,

Let me sing you a serenade.

I question myself,

Will you and I ever be needed?

Do you think that yourself?

Will I be loved no matter how much I pleaded?

Do you know what I need?

In this darkness, in this fire

I need you and me to lead,

Like two birds on a wire.

Static




empty silence fills the world
a hollow little crackling noise
that brakes the silence from within
and irritates the girls and boys
no matter where the dial turns
the frequency remains the same
it drives the people up the walls
as it has driven me insane

lin-lin sexy

The Forest

The boughs of green hang overhead,
all is silent as can be.
The leaves are crunching as I tread.
As a bird nearby does sing to me.


In this forest so full of trees,
So full of birds and other friends,
It is so empty of manmade things.
So empty of all that are as fiends.


It is there that I find peace,
Surrounded by the beautiful trees.
They spead so far without cease,
You will not find the end with ease.


These ancient trees expand so far,
It brings peace and wonder to my mind.
To see how yet young tress are
Sprouting amongst the oldest you’ll find


And as I watch the sun go down,
I see the leaves of green catch light.
The clouds beyond of fleecy down
Catch fiery colors in the dying light.


The forest becomes so dark and gloom,
Without Sun’s light it is not seen
What make rhe sounds which around me boom,
And with those sounds, so drear it seems!


So now I come away from here,
With tomorrow’s dawn will I return.
But now it is a time of fear!
Until light returns, I care not learn,


The mysterious places of this world.
For in this forest of enchantment,
The stunning powers beyond any word,
Both ancient and new would surround and encamp me.


So now I will leave this forest of wonder,
To return again with the light of day.
The leaves my feet do crunch asunder,
In this dreary dark forest I will not stay.


The boughs of green are far behind,
The darkness chased the peace away.
But tomorrow again the quiet I’ll find,
For away from the forest I will not stay.

Here in the Light

Here in the light,
it shines so bright
Up in the night it is dark,
it is so poor
& it couldn't be more
Now back to the light
it is so nice & beautiful

~Love far away~

Every day I walk to the same mailbox...
To find a letter...
From you...
I'd smile and cry
Tears of joy
I rush into the house
Stumbling across torn envelopes on the ground
Almost tripping on tons of letters
He sits down on his old wooden desk
Piled with old letters
He reads...
"My love when will you get here?"
He grabs a feather pen and parchment
He writes...
"My amour,Love is like air...
You can't see it but you can feel it
You need it to live
It is powerful
And it will always be there
For somebody else to come along
To share it with you
"Darling We'll have the life we knew we would"
"I'd walk to you if I had no other way."
"Just close your eyes...
Because I'm already there~
~Epilogue~
The next day the girl comes back from work,tired and stressed.She finds a bouquet of flowers on the table.
Suddenly the man comes out and hugs her.She drops everything and hugs him.They will share an everlasting embrace.
