Poetry Threat (well ok thread!) mark 2

People come, then people go
Some their life, others their soul
But each and everyone of you,this you need to know
Your missed when your gone and leave a relentless hole.

Don’t make me laugh

You kill me
With your sharp dry wit
Stabbing at the heart of things.
Your clever tongue striking out
Amusing strangers without effort
A word, a line, a quick retort,
A pause and when the words sink in
Laughter quickly follows and then
You smile and walk away
Cocky and content.

Not far beneath the surface
A caustic comment lurks
And god help anyone who prods
The deeply sleeping beast
For when aroused it shows sharp teeth.
I feel the panic in the air
Aware of what they’ve done,
But then you turn to look at me
You tilt your head and raise your brow
And in your eyes I see
Not some great raging beast
But laughter looking back at me.

I can’t help liking that in you
And now I come to think on it
I don’t know what I like the most,
Your constant deep and unseen smile,
Or just the very subtle fact
That whenever we’re together
And wherever we have gone
You don’t ever try to make me
I just do

Why Thank You Mims :)

the darkness is scary all around
its falling so quickly without a sound
a chance for my demons to get a hold
they dont come in the daylight, but in the night so bold
they push me and pull me and haunt me so much
i just want them to leave, go, forever, and not touch
my inner child thats so scared and afraid
and just wants to grow and be totally unscathed.

this is really hard to understand
i really just dont get it
you hold out an olive branch
and its simply just rejected

i love some folks around this place
its full of fun and love
but there are days and times
and I think Ive probably had enough

the hatred spews the fights kick off
but yet I still come back
the folks that are real are worth it
even though they eat their own s/hite

we are all people
we are all human
yes its words on a screen
but could you really live with it?

Cold,
although covered by midnights blanket,
i lie on my narrow bed.
Sinking into its mossy depths,
I contemplate the events which have led me here.

Pale in moonlight, i am the ghost that would walk
shadowy halls, although as far as i am aware
i am not dead.. Not in body, although
perhaps in spirit.

I envy people with faith, the ability to believe,
in an unknown force, by which they live out their lives.
Maybe lack of faith was my downfall, my nemesis, my inability to
give anything a tangible meaning.

Cold,
too many nights spent in the open.
I withdraw deeper, wrapping my blanket closer.
Hoping to emerge from my self made cocoon,
a brighter spirit, with wings of steel.
