I think I’ll be ok
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost
Away from prying eyes
Where nobody knows
He hides.
Fighting the bloodlust
In the moonlit night,
Falling upon him, a vampric dust
Shimmering darkly in the moonlight.
Finally setting out
Not meaning to kill
He followed an unplanned route
Hoping to heal.
Then he saw her; walking alone
So beautiful, so peaceful
She never could have known,
He had tried to be careful…
it hurts that they don't see me
whay am i tortured this way
it hurts that i see them,
looking the oposite way
it hurts that other girls are pretty,
and i'm awkward and plain
it hurts when i walk by them,
and they don't know my name
it hurts that i feel like this,
have some self respect!
it hurts when i tell myslef this
it doesn't have the same effect
as a boy who'll walk you home
everyday i walk alone
it hurts to be unknown
i live a fake life
nothing is real
there's a mask on my face
and all i speak is lies
no one knows the real me
and neither do i
you can see it in my eyes
they don't ever smile
because i'm never really happy
though i may laugh at the joke
i don't think its funny
i live a fake life
all i speak is lies
no one knows me
and neither do i
What is the purpose of love?
besideds mushy notes and a hug?
and its tales like how the princess
made a prince out of a frog?
What is the purpose of a kiss?
tell me this
girls wanting a boy so perfect
even making a list?
what does it mean when one says,
"she's so hot, she made me melt"?
is that why his cheeks are so red?
because hottness he felt?
is is true the intent of admiration
is to force a heart to love you back?
excuse me, please...correction?
that cannot be a fact!
what is it with an envelope
and a picture of a lip on it
that makes on shrink?
so...will you answer my question?
Don't worry, i'll give you time
to think
Cruel is the clock
ticking away
slowly i wait
fot it to say
i can get out
of words i can't understand
and confusing number problems
i have to write with my hand
"Hurry up!"
i say to it
but bad is the clock
i still sit
impatiently
as it tacks
and i can see its teasing grin
mock
me
soft, bright and fragrant
petals bloom with the promise
of beauty and hope
unfolding and maturing
towards an idealized form
that is simultaneously unattainable and
ultimately fulfilling
compelling the beholder
in a state of grace
to cherish every possible moment
the gift of miracle
which by design and necessity
is only a fleeting moment
as the rose passes through our dreams
I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you -- Nobody -- too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell they'd banish us -- you know!
How dreary -- to be -- Sombody!
How public -- like a Frog --
To tell your name -- the livelong June
To an admiring Bog!
I wrote without feeling
Until I met you
I dreamed of nothing
Until I met you
My thoughts were a cast
Until I met you
Feelings were lost
Until I met you
My life was like…poo-poo`
Until I met you
After I met you
Life was like a box of chocolates
Filled with surprises
After I met you
I dreamed of things like never before
That really opened a door
After I met you
My thoughts were wild
Like a grown up child
After I met you
My feelings ran free
I was always happy for me
After I met you
My life was lived true
Thank you
Why am i floating here?
in between it all
i've lost my power to steer
my life is in a stall
i liked whats behind
but not anymore
i had hopes for this time
but i'd never seen this before
i feel kinda hurt inside
more like a regretfull ache
because someone must have lied
those comforting words were fake
i don't know where to go
i've been set adrift
i want to see the snow
but someone must have fell
cuz i'm stuck hanging here on the lift
My life is a sea of confusion, there’s so much I don’t understand
Like why do I carefully schedule my day when NOTHING goes how I planned?
And why does my mouth crave a burger when my head know an apple is best?
And why should I strive to be tiny and thin but ample and full at my chest?
Why’s it ok for guys to smell bad but girls should smell like a rose?
And why must there be a shine on my lips but never a shine on my nose?
The clothing I wear should be sexy but my attitude chaste and sweet
I’m told to be independent and free – but a boyfriend will make me complete.
We know that the Earth is polluted, yet we hop in our hugh SUV’s
Drive a few blocks to go talk Earth-friendly strategies.
My school can’t afford new computers, yet a bomb costs about 80 grand.
Peace never lasts, war never ends…
There’s so much I don’t understand.
she lived in a world all her own
so she couldn't hear the pitifull moan
of the decaying streets that surround her home
or see the beggars, who silently roam
so she was happy at least
her world was all a jolly feast
but she couldn't see the misery inside
because when asked to look, she never tried
she didn't mean to hurt her friends
she couldn't see past where the road bends
she never wondered why they were mad
never realized what she did was bad
it wasn't her fault, the thihngs that took place
although it was right in front of her face
wake up pretty dreamer,from your beauty land
place your feet into the slippery, sinking sand.
The boy that sits in that chair,
does he even know how much i stare?,
day after day, night after night,
i wish he would be my shining knight,
to whisk me away to a beautiful land,
and softly kiss my hand,
whispering sweet nothings in my ear,
that is what i'd like to hear.
But that boy, sitting in the chair,
really doesn't know how much i stare,
he doesn't know how much i dream,
that someday i might be his queen,
so i will just sit here hour after hour,
dreaming i could be his beautiful flower.
someone forget that i am so-called perfect
someone forget that i am sweet
someone forget that i am a darling
someone forget that i am a treat
because just for once i want to be
noticed as a girl not perfect
someone see
that i am not as perfect
as people see me to be
someone forget
happiness was drained from her eyes
when she spoke to him, she spoke lies
she could not admit he had won a heart
her heart
and as everyday pass them by
she kept on hiding inside
she was afraid he could make her cry
this was her first secret she could not tell him
it took a girl to make her realize
she wanted the boy that she always cried
and laughed with, but all she could do was sigh sadly
and now that she likes him so
she did not want to confess
of he might go
always, never to be friends again
i'll try to move on
starting today
becasue no matter how hard i pray
i know everything just can't work my way
this secret he cannot know.
Tell me that it's over,
Tell me I'm too good for you,
Tell me I can do better though we both know it's not true.
Tell me you don't want to see my smile or wipe away my tears,
Tell me you don't want to be there to protect me from my fears.
Tell me you don't want my kiss or to feel me in your arms.
Tell me you don't want to be there to help me in a time of harm.
Tell me to go away,
Tell me to find someone new,
Tell me that I'm lying to myself and that I don't want you.
Even though it's gonna be hard,
I love you and I'll do as you please,
But now it's time for your challenge,
Tell me you don't love me.
See that boy,
He is mine
He loves me with all his heart
I am secretly his
I always was from the start.
See that boy,
How he smiles
He smiles just for me
I am secretly his
No one knows but we
See that boy
He cares
His kisses are so sweet
I am secretly his
I love to feel his heart beat
See that boy
I love him
And together we share each other
I am secretly his
And no one else as much matters
Tich Miller
By Wendy Cope
Tich Miller wore glasses
With elastoplast-pink frames
And had one foot three sizes larger than the other.
When they picked teams for outdoor games
She and I were always the last two
Left standing by the wire-mesh fence.
We avoided one another’s eyes,
Stooping, perhaps, to re-tie a shoelace,
Or affecting interest in the flight
Of some fortunate bird, and pretended
Not to hear the urgent conference:
‘Have Tubby!’ ‘No, no, have Tich!’
Usually they chose me, the lesser dud,
And she lollopped, unselected,
To the back of the other team.
At eleven we went to different schools.
In time I learned to get my own back,
Sneering at hockey-players who couldn’t spell.
Tich died when she was twelve.
No one ever said that in life you had to fall in love
But with you it just came naturally
And when you’re outside waiting for me
How I don’t have to force myself to see
How lucky I am, I am
Such a lucky girl
Because I have you
How did I get you?
I still can’t believe you want me.
Many tried to stop you
From asking me
Many tried to tell you
We’re not meant to be
But if something does happen
And you longer want me,
At least I’ll have our memories of
You caring for me,
You liking me,
You actually like holding me,
And I’m shaking inside,
The happiness I can not hide.
I’ve always thought I was different
But you like me this way
And you don’t mind the silence
We sometimes tend to give when there are days
That I just don’t feel like talking
And all I want to do is hear you breathing
You’re breathing next to me,
I love it when you’re next to me
Mother was right,
When you’re in love it shows,
So this is how it feels,
This is how love flows
And we won’t ever have to send each other go.
Oh, I can’t even imagine letting you go.
Does everyone see things like I do?
Are we all the same?
I wish I could hear you
When you call out my name
I hate to see you going
I wish that I could say
Whatever I’ve wanted to speak for so long
I don’t know what it is
That draws me to you
I’ve puzzled over it
A million times through
All I know is that I love you
I guess I think I do
Contradiction all over me
What am I going to do?
A who a what a where?
Does it look as if I care?
Shut up please
You are boring me
Could you give me some peace?
Do you ever stop talking?
I don’t want to be with you!
Now everyone is leaving me!
Go away!
Shut up!
Do I appear to care?
Cuz if I do
Please let me know
I’ll then try to make it more clear
I do not want you here!
You don’t know me
I don’t know you
When did we last see each other?
Was it that long ago?
You’re so different
I must be too
We were friends once
I don’t think we can be now
This hurts so much
I used to love you
But now
You don’t know me
And I don’t know you.
He felt so warm and solid
Like something meant to last
I felt him against my chest
Strong and safe
This hug was brief and simple.
I wish it could be more
To spend forever in his arms
Feeling so safe and secure.
I’m sorry I never told you
How I really felt
Now you may never know
That I loved so
our paths in life are parting
Will we ever meet again?
If we were to come together once more
By some miracle of fate
I’d tell you that I love you
And jump into your arms
Because I know you love me too
And it is killing me to know
That you don’t know how I feel about you,
How I love you so.
Did you know, that you’re ugly?
And stupid too
Did you know, everyone hates you?
And I do too
Did you know, that you’ll never belong?
And you did, didn’t you?
Did you know that you’re miserable?
And as hard as you try,
It always shows through?
I stared at that person
Right in the face
Tears welled up in her eyes
She was a disgrace.
Then I turned from my mirror
So I couldn’t see that loser
Opened the bottle and drank the pills
I felt the world slipping away,
A light coming closer
A knock on the door
They found me on the floor
But I was gone
Too late.
Somehow I’ll make it
It won’t be all fun and play
But I think I can take it.
I’ve done it before
I’ll do it again
This immense chore
Seems smaller every day.
I’ll carry my burden
I’ll shoulder my sorrow
If only I could be certain
It would all work tomorrow
Soon the misery will end
It has to work
Because life will go on
And I’ll be there to laugh at myself
It’s right around the bend.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry i could not travel both
And be one traveler, long i stood
And looked down one, as far as i could
To where it bent it the undergrowth
Then took the other as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
But as for that, the passing there,
Had worn them really about the same
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh i kept the first for another day
yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if i would ever come back
i shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence;
Two roads diverged in a wood, and i
I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference.
