~Own Two Feet~

Trying to stand on your own two feet,
is a difficult task that we all must complete.
To be living at home, when you don't have to be,
is the worst of tortures, I'm sure you'd agree.

I would hate to be under someone else's rules,
that's why when your younger, you must build all the tools.
To use when you're older, to live life on your own,
you should follow the path, that you've always been shown.

Imagine dealing with parents for more than 18 years,
just that terrible thought, brings me to tears.
I would hate to be locked up again in that cage,
I have to live my own life when I come of age.

Nobody to yell or tell you what to do.
Nobody to ground you right out of the blue.
Nobody allowed to push you around.
Let's all be honest, how good does that sound?

All you have to do is follow three simple rules,
don't drink, do drugs, or make fun to amuse.
As long as you have respect for others and you,
you will live life on your own, as most others do.

Just a little Chapstick

A pair of lips intertwined
Lost beyond life, beyond time
A simple kiss shared, a tremendous meaning
A desperate plea to hope you are not dreaming

Soft lips, caressing
Ebbed with love's flow
Smoothly sending shivers
Down your spine

In the morning, just a little chapstick
Made its way to your lips
And then the chapped lips faded
To be replaced with soothing care

A quick flavor of cherries
The scent drenching the air
Just a little chapstick
To aid one in despair

The blood has faded, the cuts are gone
From the once soft lips that had turned cracked and rippled
Pop off the cap, twist a distance
And there is the prescription to your ailment

A little kiss that didn't hurt
Smacking cherry chapstick.

Scab

A big scab on my knee
I put on pants so nobody can see
It holds back all the pain
All the tears that pour like rain

My scab is red as can be
But it just can't hurt me
It heals me when I hit the ground
and it doesn't even make a sound

Scabs are different in everyway
they can be red,purple,or even gray
They didn't come to hurt me
They just came to heal for free

I look one more time to see it
But it dissapeared and I couldn't believe it
My scab was gone and so was my cut
My scab left everything looking uncut!

Pickle
By:Poonam

emerald green, oblonge
strips of white paint
spattered on a deformed
body, strangly humane
placed in a clear sarcophagus
with others of its kind
drowned in preserving liquid
suffocated, airtight
hidden in frigid air
alone yet surrounded by many
waiting to be taken
a satisfying gift
stuck in a tomb
stuck in ice air
stuck in a pickled body

Is anyone else going to enter this contest

Im gonna close this contest on April 22, so if anyone wants to enter you have 2 days!!

Running Foot
------------------------

Slamming down upon the ground
The foot that runs, proud and fast
This foot barely makes a sound
As the runner streaks on past

Naked, without it's running shoe
Blistered without its protection
Cold and wet, foot turns to blue
Through the scars, seeps infection

This single foot needs little aid
To make it through the fastest race
A lot or a little may be paid
To stop this foot from losing grace

Bandaged, plastered ready now
Once again, it starts to run
Pounding, flat against the ground
The running foot has won!

Heh - reading through everyone's poems - they were great by the way - I think it's funny how different people have written different poems. For example, I would have personally written about a scab, from the scar of a slit wrist. Maybe I'm just emo lol.
