Hi! This subpage features a few poems I've written...nothing good but I thought I might put it on here. Enjoy! (I apologize in advance for the huge gaps in the text. It was either that or paragraph form. Trust me...it looks a lot better now...)

[edit] 18 Wheels Up the Stairs
There she went, Just like that,
In that ole '96 Cadillac.
Those 18 wheels rumbling down the street,
Smiling like Satan,
Death at her feet.
Now I stare at that old stone,
Friends and Family,
Phone and phone.
Rain falls from my eyes,
I stare up and ask why.
That semi pierced my heart,
Now I have no life,
'Cause we're apart.
I fell into the abyss,
And there's no way out.
There's no hope and no love, no doubt.
Darkness and hatrid are only found,
The loss of hope is the sound.
The echos of misery tend to shout.
And the unilluminated scent is a warning,
That you'll be face to face with Heaven or Hades in the morning.
Broken-hearted, I stand on that double yellow line,
Two lights shine, my heart drops,
50 miles per hour, no stop.
The metal crushes and I fall,
My love has broken heaven's wall.
Her blood was here and now is mine...
And there I went, Just like that,
Killed by an ole '96 Cadillac.
[edit] All Aboard the Stairway!
The birds sing and the sun greets,
Just as the ancient takes his seat.
He waddles triumphant on his throne,
And babbles to stone.
He thinks of memories past; his whole life
How long will he last?
When will he meet the scythe?
He hasn't lost his vow to Mary,
Although he'd like her shadow,
Not a halo.
No more is the stairway scary,
Now his love has ended his restlessness,
And his voice fades away,
His joy will finally live another day...
[edit] Our Lady, Through Her Eyes
Her singing voice signals Lord's love,
Her pulsing walls enlighten all,
Her bells greet the lands of Paris*,
As the morning sun rises,
Hear the Word of Mary,
Love,
Love,
Love,
The outer wings carry evil away,
Let Her heart say,
Love,
Love,
Love,
Her caring heart and loving souls beat as one,
Her love builds a stairway leading towards the sky,
Climb up,
Climb high!
See Our Lady through Her eyes!

[edit] Our Lady, Through Her Eyes (edited)
Her singing voice signals Lord's love,
Her pulsing walls enlighten all,
Her bells greet the lands of Paris*,
As the morning sun rises,
Hear the Word of Mary.
Love,
Love,
Love.
The outer wings carry evil away,
Let Her heart say,
Love,
Love,
Love.
As you stare up above you might see a halo shining like morning sun,
Her vow is never done,
Love,
Love,
Love,
The walls are stained with memories past,
They seem like they've been carved by angels,
So don't blink,
'Cause their beauty may fade fast.
Love,
Love,
Love.
Her shadow lays restless like a toddler plus five-pounds of candy,
Because she's an angel coming directly from the Lord,
Whom has only a few goals in her passionate life,
To prevent the use of the dark coat's scythe,
And to spread joy, to be filled with glee.
Love,
Love,
Love! Her caring heart and loving souls beat as one,
Her love builds a stairway leading towards the sky,
Climb up,
Climb high!
See Our Lady through Her eyes!

[edit] Why Can't You See?
Father, why do you hate me?
Father, why can't you see?
I've always tried to please you,
Be who you want me to be.
I look back and remember the stare in your eyes,
As you watched me sob,
You struck me with a smile,
Although all you heard was my cries.
Your heart is black and vile,
So you curse me with this scar,
And banish me from my homeland,
So very, very far.
Why is she better?
Why am I not enough?
Why do you always taunt me?
Is it because I'm not tough?
Or is it because your blind?
Because you can't see,
You've never had the heart and mind,
To love me.
I was only trying to save our men,
Why can't you see,
That's not a sin?
Now I'm stuck out here in sea,
And the only chance of return is a fee.
Now I have no love,
Now I have no life.
All I have is Iroh,
And now that your deed is done,
He's the one who comforts my sorrow,
Because you've lost your son!
(This one was in honor of Zuko...in case you didn't know.)
[edit] Lost Upon the Ground
In the moonlight her smile shines bright,
Like fireflies soaring on a summer night.
As I come up to her my heart pounds,
Then the lights hit and the angels sound.
I give her some roses and she smiles,
I say, “Today, can we go out for just a little while?”
She giggles, agrees and then I faint,
For I’ve been blessed by the Valentine’s saint.
[edit] The Curse of Cupid’s Arrow
Every time I look upon her eyes,
Or anytime we exchange our hellos and good-byes,
My heart flutters like a bee,
Her beauty is more beautiful than anything I see.
I sing the song of single sparrow,
And praise the teachings of the arrow.
For now I’ve been caught in Cupid’s hold,
My love for her is more priceless than gold.
