    Just A Chance

    Just a chance is all I'm holdin' onto
    To keep me goin' over the edge
    Just a chance that you might take me back
    That you might love me once again

    Just a chance to have another chance
    To prove my love for you
    A chance to show you finally
    My love for you is true

    Just a chance is all thats keepin' me
    From givin' up on love
    Just a chance to once again
    Hold you, my beautiful dove

    Just a chance that my wish could be granted
    Though it never will come true
    Just a chance for one more time
    To fall asleep with you

    Just a chance is all thats holdin' me
    From movin' on with my life
    Just a chance, even one in a million
    That you would take me as your wife.

    Teenage Dilemma

    Torn between love and lust, a teenage dilemma

    My sister has told me stories of such bad luck
    To be tricked into lust instead of love
    Losing it to someone you barely know
    You're blinded and thinking you'll stay forever so

    To not know the truth, saying love instead of like
    Silent victims wonder, reaching their own plight
    A tunnel of darkness ever so confusing
    When it feels like you're winning you seem to be losing

    What a teenage dilemma... (sigh)
    Lock up innocent hearts, throw away the key
    Trade it in for "appeal", that's what bothers me
    Why would people do this... like it's so special?

    I swear, my friends and their buds were going out
    They told me what they did, and in contradiction did I shout,
    "What do you think you're doing, what's wrong with you?"
    They think they have such little to lose

    Still... how could graduated children be in such a dilemma?
    I used to think the world was safer
    But I hear bad words on the TV, see bad things in real life
    Barely anyone these days even takes the time

    What happened to fairy tales, where have they gone?
    Why are people in these illusions?
    The story's turned out wrong
    If only people could make their love strong

    Instead everyone seems to think making it will have people stay
    No one seems to notice this is just a little game
    Get them for an hour, have a one night stand
    People think it's cool by the media's demand

    I'm telling you, you need to know for sure
    You and your lover as BF/GF should be pure
    If you'll love them forever, you should at least love first
    Get married, move out, be experienced to own a house

    If you've been dirty and tainted, it's okay
    There's always new, fresh starts
    Just forgive yourself and purify your heart
    So that there's room for true love to stay.

    5. Memories of disgrace

    This love, this passion, this endless kiss,
    This socalled perfect love shouldn't be like this.
    He was supposed to be the best, supposed to be great,
    How could he do this? Was this my fate?
    On this trip to Hawaii, this warm summer day,
    When she walked in the room, she had no words to say.
    She ran, and the ran, but he didn't come far,
    She felt like he opened her every scar.
    This was supposed to be amazing, perfect,
    Now he's lying there with another, has he no respect?
    Without her luggage, she went back,
    Without him she left, and her world went black.
    Now she is happy, she can barely remember his face,
    Yet deep down inside, there are memories of disgrace.

    17. Hear Me
    Hear me please; hear my soft cries through the night,
    Hold me tight, no matter what, and say, “Everything will be alright”.
    Hear my screams from under my big fluffy pillow,
    Tell me not to cry, tell me not be a weeping willow.

    Hear me please; hear that everything I do is fake,
    Know that even when you think I’m sleeping, I’m really awake.
    Hear me lying, saying that everything is, “Just fine”
    When my puffy, raw cheeks, should really give you a sign.

    Let me hear you, saying that you finally care about me,
    That you’re sorry for all the years you’ve made me gloomy.
    Let me hear you love me, so I know death isn’t the answer,
    Take me by the hand, and make me feel like a ballet dancer.

    Forgive And Forget [Triolet]

    I will not forgive and forget,
    It is not that easy to do.
    I've lived all my life in regret,
    I will not forgive and forget.
    Everyday you make me upset,
    Because of what you put me though.
    I will not forgive and forget,
    It is not that easy to do.

    ````````````````````````````````
    A Triolet is a poetic form consisting of
    only 8 lines. Within a Triolet, the 1st,
    4th, and 7th lines repeat, and the 2nd
    and 8th lines do as well. The rhyme
    scheme is simple: ABaAabAB, capital
    letters representing the repeated lines.
    Make each line 8 syllables in length.
    `````````````````````````````````

    -Like fire- By jessy

    You look at me
    With those eyes like fire..

    They glint with rage
    And so much anger
    So much evil
    You stare at me
    As I lay there on the floor
    My mind gone blank
    My breathing fast
    My ribs broken
    And my head bleeding
    Bleeding forever more..

    You have attacked me
    You have abused me
    You have destroyed me
    You give me one last look
    With those eyes like fire
    And walk out the door

    You know someone will find me
    And I will be fine,
    You just needed to take out your anger
    And the body you used
    Was mine..

    That’s what I’m for
    Always have been
    And always will..
    A punch bag,
    A way for you to release anger and pain
    Just pass it on to me..

    But what you do not know
    Is that
    This is the last time
    I will be attacked
    Be abused
    Be destroyed..

    As you walk away
    My head bleeds and bleeds
    Leaving a puddle around me
    My heart rate gets slower and slower
    My eyes flicker open and closed
    And then
    Suddenly
    I am lying in the dark
    For the rest of eternity
    Forever to remember
    Those eyes like fire..

    Alone To Fly

    Growing up with morals and
    Guidance from the ones whe love.
    School, Friends, Family, loved-ones
    Helping to make us who we are.

    As we graduate today, I belive
    That most of us are still in shock
    That we all made it this far together!
    I am proud of each of us!

    Together we have faced tests,
    Hard Teachers, laughs, fears,
    And a lot of heart-break, but that
    My friends is what happends as Teenagers!

    After this most of us will
    Depart from this town, these people
    We have known for so long, departing for
    A future, a new beging, yet facing a closeing.

    Alone to fly, so spread your wings.
    Alone to soar, so aim high.
    Alone to make our futures bright,
    Yet not so alone!

    Keep god in your heart, and
    Your family in your mind!
    Remember all of the lessons learned,
    But dont forget to have fun!

    Yes we are alone to fly now,
    This moment we have all dreamed of.
    We are all scared, scared to fly, scared to
    Soar, bust mostly scared to fall.

    We will make mistakes, its expected.
    But we will get ourselves out of them!
    Congrats! Class of '06........you did it!!!!
    Alone to fly, Alone to soar, Alone together!

    ~Illusions~

    Illusions I have
    Of you in my life,
    My mind is tricking me
    Were ever I go.

    Illusions of you being
    By my side
    I thought I saw you
    Walking past me
    On that dark night.

    Illusions of you
    No matter were I go
    I even thought
    You were the leaves
    Dancing and swirling
    In the spring breeze.

    Illusions all around me
    Of you and only you
    My mind is tricking me
    With my immense imagination.

    Illusions of you
    I sometimes can not breath
    I hate this tricky mind
    Of that I keep.

    I feel like my Illusions
    Are getting worse
    I look to the left and
    There you are.
    When I look to the right
    You standing next to me
    You hold a tiny box
    Of which holds a ring.

    Darn the Illusions
    They are taking over me
    I know you will never
    Be here with me.
    I wish this was true
    And you would smile
    For me
    But these is only Illusion
    These are only a dream.

    ~The End~

    I feel disconnected,
    like a plant uprooted.
    Thought I was good,
    but was not the best suited.

    Swept off my feet,
    like a leaf off its tree.
    How things have changed,
    now the rest, memories.

    Why did I miss out,
    what didn't I see?
    Could things have differed,
    if it weren't me?

    I used to be great,
    the best of the field.
    What has happened to me,
    and the weapons I'd wield?

    Now, that I am disarmed,
    and left unprotected,
    this mirror emits
    an unfamiliar reflection.

    A person unknown,
    to my family and friends.
    A person alone,
    the means to an end.

    The end of all arguing,
    and upset in life,
    I've changed my ways,
    without the help of a knife.

    Why is this not enough
    for all of you to see,
    that I want my own life,
    without the help of therapy?

    Defying Gravity

    Kiss the nymph and melt the funnels
    Of logic, manners, common sense
    As the chariots flow through underground tunnels
    Dust the gold and glory from false pretence

    Bathe me bare in the veils of the sea
    Salt my skin and strip the stars
    Ignite the organs and twist the trees
    Thread dragonflies into these prison bars

    Blacken the sun with dripping ceiling wax
    Drape dreams into the pallor of gold
    Redden the cheeks and the curls I'll flax
    With toads and princes sweep away the mould

    Shadow the glade and live for the light
    Braid gossamer toadstools flakily
    Trek with trolls to never-ending plight
    Levitate me honey-defy gravity

    #12 Angel Wings

    Laying on her death bed
    With flowers all around
    Balloons touching the ceiling
    Nothing making a sound

    The nurse checks on her
    Every once in awhile
    She has no family but me
    And she lost her unborn child

    She is only twenty seven
    And she was so full of life
    But now shes half dead
    And no longer a wife

    Her husband left her
    And doesnt keep in touch
    He must not have cared
    Or even loved her that much

    Her pulse is now weakening
    As a tear goes down my face
    I whisper to God
    Take her to that one special place

    She is now gone
    But to a better place
    I know she is watching over me
    From somewhere way beyond space

    And in Gods choir
    I hear her as she sings
    And I can imagine her
    With beautiful angel wings!

    13 Years Down the Drain

    My best friend of 13 years,
    if it weren't for my good strength I'd be in tears.

    I can't believe it was that easy for you to throw us down the drain,
    you'll realize what you've done but the close as your ever going to see me again is through your picture frames.

    I can't believe your doing this to us,
    you were always the one person I knew I could trust.

    When were kids our peers always picked on you,
    so I was always in trouble cuz because hurting them was all I wanted to do.

    Growing up we had to split parts,
    but the distance between us didnt change the fact that you were always on my mind and in heart.

    We always kept in touch,
    and my hands stiffed in pain from writing you so much.

    Phone calls lasted till our phone batteries died,
    and visits so exciting that we both cried.

    Best friends since 1st grade!
    conversations from dolls to the first time we got laid;

    from picking colleges to go to, and being there for each other to help get things through.

    Now I'm getting married, I want you to be my maid of honor
    but where are you?

    You only call once in a blue moon,
    and there's no excitement in your voice anymore when I say "I'll be in town soon"

    As a matter of fact when I'm there you never answer the phone,
    Your car is in the driveway, yet, your not home (?)

    If you had a problem, you should've talked to me about it in the first place,
    now it's to late cuz I dont want to be best friends with a two face.

    The reason of you doing this I just dont know, cuz I dont understand the actions that come from people whose level is so low.

    i feel this poem relates to "the end" because this friendship i thought would last forever, has ended.

    #2 (a companion)
    My Hearts Decision

    At times I desperately want to tell you goodbye;
    for all the countless nights in my room where I cried,
    from hearing your painful words that shattered my heart leaving me with feeling like I'd just rather die.

    I'm your fiance, so why did you let me feel that way (?)
    Is it because your love for me has faded away (?)

    Or did you get to comfortable and thought it was okay because my love for you is so strong and knew I was here to stay (?)

    Thoughts came into mind,
    maybe its not impossible to be a better person out there to find.

    Someone who love me the way I loved you,
    but never imagine to hurt me the way you do.

    But how will I find this person and who will it be (?)
    I just can't wait for him to take away the pain and make me happy.

    My heart interrupted speaking louder than my thoughts,
    saying "what about all the good times that he brought(?)"

    the many ways he helped you and all the good he has done,
    after thinking about it, do you honestly feel that he isn't the one (?)

    how else could your close minded self, find someone to easily spill your guts to till there's nothing left to say,
    while falling in love with him in just one day (?)

    Who else will put up with your extreme heart of a child personality,
    and at the same time, share so many likes and dislike similarities (?)

    Who else will sing to you every night before you go to sleep (?)
    although through all the ups and downs, his heart you know you want to keep."

    I've had more smiles, than I had cries, I love you so much and I'm not ready for any goodbyes
