Poems Dedicated to People
*This
is what I believe.....*
You act so stupidly
Trying to be funny
Instead of being funny
Funny
Like so many people I can name
You have to analyse life
Put it under the microscope
Argue every last point
And even if its my life in question
You have an opinion which
Of course is automatically right
When its you thats hurt
Its okay to run away and cry and sulk and whinge
But when you hurt someone else
You act like you are a perfect little angel
Who could do no wrong
When inside you are fucked up
Lost and insecure
Well don't take your crappy life out
on me
I can help
But not if you are a hypocrite
Or expect things of me
That I just can't give
Don't laugh at me this time
Or call me an idiot
Just listen please
My words are spoken from the heart
This is what I believe
Perfect Christian?
I've no idea what God is
But you can't have seen his light
Or that of Jesus
When you still make fun of people
For what they look like
Leave it alone
Leave her alone
Its not her fault she left you
She thought you'd hurt her
And look now.....
You do everyday
This is what I believe
You need help
But more than what I can give
*You*
Are as graceful as the night
Think of me as foolish, or at least a bit delusional
Dont know me
Why
Do you cut yourself each day
Do you relive your worst moments
Should you stand up and do what other people want you to do
Dont you care
How
Can you live a lie like this
Do you want me to act
Do you fit into this world
Do you sleep at night
Cry
Even when you are happy
For what you have done
Yourself to sleep
And let yourself shed your sandpaper tears
Who
Are your friends
Are you crying for
Loves you more than me
Sees what you suffer
Stand
Tall and straight
Up for what you believe in
On your own two feet
Where I can see you shine
*For
Karina* (Mk. 1)
Girl
You startle me
You surprise me with the way you think
Beautiful
Inside where no-one can see
Outside which you try to hide
You
Could be anything
Are special to me and all who know you
Beauty is never on the surface
But you are beautiful outside and in
Ugly people are those who hate
For small peculiarities
Or no reason
Never change for anyone but yourself
The world would be more frightening without you
Karina,
Girl,
Beautiful You Are
*Magneto*
Can't keep my eyes off you
Your swaying hair
Blows in my face
I am within sight of you
I am drawn to you
A beast to food
Your beautiful eyes
Reflect in my own
So much better
Than I deserved
And your white hands
Within my own
So cold
But so delicate
So much purer
Than my own
Coarse
Hands
And Soul
"Oh I'm not that pretty, Richard."
Yes
You are
"I think the same as other girls, I want
the same things as other girls"
And yet you are so different
So unique
So special
"I just learn how to hold on"
"I'm watching you watch over me, and
I've got the greatest view from here......"
Watch over you
While you sleep
and while you dream
Your soft breathing
And while you sleep
Much like awake
You are a magneto
Drawing me to you
Never wanted to let you go
But I had to
In the end
