Everybody Says Don't, please and thanks! :)

Sweetheart, i have to confess please

Sweetheart, I Must Confess

I must confess;
Ive loved you from the start,
Ive missed you when we're apart,
Ive left you and turned to go back.

ive regretted every moment,
to know it isnt the same.
I need you as much as they do.
Yet i wonder,
do you feel the same?

Ive heard you
Speak of things relevant to the issue,
Ive wondered if you were thinking of me,
I hoped you had me in mind.

Its tearing me apart,
Hearing of days gone by without me,
By your side, Im happier than ill ever be
But it just isnt the same.

I wish it never happened.
Although i hoped it would.
Confusion is my guard,
envy is my sin.

Sweetheart, I confess
I love you, my friend,
my lover, I need you.
But I dont think you feel the same...
tell me now
end my sorrows
and leave me all the same.

They asked me why I believe in you

Your words crawled from the beats of my heart,
and ran with the heat of my blood toward
the tip of these fingers.
Lingering your presence with me
if even over a journal..
For I had you roving with joy inside
my head today.
Just like the day before it,and the day before.

Drawing a smile on my face I recalled
precious moments;like when my heart leaps
the second my eyes catch your face..

How your presence makes me passionate,
how through your absence I turn to
be a poet who knows precisely how and what
she longs to say..

Dipping my pen into these emotions
that are beating insanity beyond
control;beyond distance.

For if a bit of time is not enough for us
to know each other, then neither would
eternity be adequate.
My beliefs and faith in you already
crossed the barrier of knowledge,
and the illusion of time.

And I remember that in my dreams I have
traveled some green miles, and some other
flowery ones to reach you.
The sun never departed the sky then-
and the breeze gently held me all along this journey;
even when I came back to reality..

Yes, I found heaven there.
Still I had you roving sweetly inside
my heart today, just like you never
had before..
And it only took few more words from
your heart to gain my trust-
no my whole attention too
Yet they asked me why I believe in you!

Can i have i guess this is good by pls

My I please have :They asked me why I believe in you?

If its only in your head and listen to the rain on the road please!

Well, although this hasn't generated much interest, it's generated more than I anticipated it would do :)

Now, deadline...I have a bunch of stuff coming up soon and am still constantly busy with my son..so..we'll say end of November?

That gives everyone plenty of time, and gives me time to get everything in order.

Have fun!

I would like Sweetheart i must confess please

Everybody Says Don't ~ Kimberley B.

If you ask her why she is still fighting,
she will tell you it's all that she has left.
Between the darkness and the suffering,
the scars are all she has truly possessed.

We all learn to make mistakes and run,
run from them in haphazard directions.
We learn how to fail ourselves so easily,
after years of failing others expectations.
She says hurt is the only inevitable thing.
That in the end pain is only a compromise
in life just to get what we wanted out of it.
At least that's what's written in her eyes.

If you ask her why she's still trying now,
she'll tell you it's all she knows how to do.
Every broken dream and shattered heart
is a reminder of the shit she's been through.

We all strive to find our place in this world.
I'm just another person traveling aimlessly,
through this place to find where I belong.
She says that we're all searching endlessly,
following rules that hinder our only goal.
Well everybody says don't, according to her,
there's no way we'll ever find what we're
looking for as long as we follow what's proper.

And if you ask her why she's determined to win,
she will tell you it's because people say she won't.
And if you ask her why she still hurts sometimes.
she will tell you it's because everybody says don't

Smiles of a summer night, plz

"I guess this is goodbye" and "smiles of a summer night"

Please, thanks =]

Smiles of a summer night

Radiating through violet shadows
resplendent rays of moonlit charm
Smiles of a summer night.

Velvet moss on pavement grey
elegant shimmer of crystal stream,
Radiating through violet shadows,

Maple adorning colors of Fall,
bedecking a world, still and calm,
resplendent rays of moonlit charm.

Butterflies engaged in spirited plays
Gently rings the memory bell, like
Smiles of a summer night.

Poetry Form - Cascade
**Cascade, a form created by Udit Bhatia, is all about receptiveness, but in a smooth cascading way like a waterfall. The poem does not have any rhyme scheme; therefore, the layout is simple. Say the first verse has three lines. Line one of verse one becomes the last line of verse two. To follow in suit, the second line of verse one becomes the last line of verse three. The third line of verse one now becomes the last line of verse four, the last stanza of the poem. See the structure example below:

a/b/c, d/e/A, f/g/B, h/i/C

To make the Cascade an even longer poem, use more lines in verse one. For example, if verse one has 6 lines, the poem must have seven stanzas so that each line of verse one is reused as a refrain in each following stanza (a cascading effect).

Just a reminder that there's only two weeks left guys :)

Running, Just to Stand Still

It ends today, this life I know.
For I feel I just need to leave
I know in my heart to get up and go
I know in my mind, just have to believe

I pack a bag, minimal possessions
for where I'm going I don't need much
running's become my eternal obsession
because this world I'm in is beyond my touch

I'll hop a train, hitchhike or run
my destination? anywhere but here
I know where I'll go, I'll follow the sun
my destiny? It's now become clear.

Run away from the problems at home
just leave them behind, rotting away
I'll push them back, I'm on my own
I'll deal with them some other day

I'll find a place where no one knows me
so I'll catch a plane, bike, or bus
I'll start a new life, and you will see
I won't have to ever think of us

.......

Or reality will hit, I wake from this dream
to find I haven't moved, standing still
I'm stuck forever in this place it seems
someone get me off this treadmill.

Look Into Their Eyes and See What They Know

I see with my eyes, I feel with my skin
I smell with my nose, and hear voices within
But what does he see, with his eyes so blank
for this mutilation, he has God to thank

He sees what he knows, and he knows more than I
he knows red, and green, when he thinks of the sky
He knows about beauty, more than we'll ever see
he knows about joy, much more so than me

He knows of a land that's vast and wide,
and he knows the feeling of total pride,
he knows of a place where we've never been
he sees the glory of a place we've never seen.

It can only be seen through those eyes of his
where the objects and faces are imaginative
where the sounds and smells reveal whats real
and for what he can't see, he can taste and feel

He knows wisdom, through the eyes he owns
because when you are blind, you seek the unknown
He seeks beyond, with every breath he breathes
what would I give, to know what he sees

I would like to do There's something about a war.
I've been really busy lately (and sick, ugh) so Im going to try my hardest to get it in on time.
Omit me from the contest if I don't please :)

I feel kind of bad for doing this but i havent had time to write and i just cant come up with anything so take me off the list. thanks

I guess this is goodbye..

"Best Friends Forever,
Wasn't that what we said?
Sisters at heart,
Past the day that we'd wed

Always together,
No one could tear us apart,
Always forever,
Cause we were sisters at heart..

What happened to you?
What happened to us?
I wish I could tell you
But I don't want to fuss

You think I don't care
You think it's a game
I want to know what happened
Cause nothing feels the same

I told you to always lean on me
Didn't you tell me to lean on you to?
Cause lately I've really needed you
But your not here, what do I do?

I never thought this would happen
I didn't think sisters could get so lost
But we both wanted different things
And our friendship was the cost

I couldn't tell you face to face
But I do miss you everyday
I miss my sister, I really do
In every single way

So I guess this is goodbye
But the memories we still share
I miss the friend you used to be
I hope I find her one day...somewhere

Always together,
No one could tear us apart,
Always forever,
Cause we were sisters at heart..."

sorry this i'snt great but it came from the heart =] hope u enjoy

May i please request listen to the rain on the road?
