Whatever happened to the moments
we lived for
the moments we lived from
electrifying lives
currents of passion
high voltage that knew no resistance

what do I have to do?
to feel the surge
to feel the spark
to feel alive again?

Is it in the tomes?
Is it in the songs?
Do the muses hold it in the walls?
Is it inside of me?

Searching for the switch
to send me back to passion
To make me feel charged again
to make me feel in charge again
"My heart always timidly hides itself behind my mind. I set out to bring down stars from the sky, then, for fear of ridicule, I stop and pick little flowers of eloquence."  -Edmond Rostand
My fav. quote
I am the snow, may bring joy or pain.
May want me gone or want me to stay.
You're caught in the blizzard yet you still don't know...
Leave now, I know you wouldn't like the show.

I'll leave a trail for you to know my presence
Don't take it the wrong way that I'll always be cold
Spring will come and flowers would bloom soon
First thing to do is the weeds, to prune.

I know you're a flower and I was your sun
But you see the moon ruled and took over.
The night was young, but seemed so hazy
Got lost in the fog, goodbye my daisy!
So I decided too quickly...

I never thought I would ever see a beautiful face with a kind heart.
When I look into your eyes, I feel happiness inside my heart.
Are you an angel that came before me to wipe the tears in my heart?
You are a gift from above, how I wish to be your friend and never be apart.

Your beauty amazes me, you are my inspiration.
I know I'm not worthy, but you can count on me on any situation.
You can trust me, I'll make you happy, here's my shoulder to cry on.
I'll do everything to make you happy, look at me you've got my attention.

How I wish you could give me a chance to prove my worth as your friend.
You're my dream come true, I hope to walk with you along the road with no end.
'Cause to be with you brings happiness in my heart.
An angel that brings me joy, please don't break my heart.

A dedication poem by: Hans Quintanilla
Every time you sigh,
a little of you goes by
And every time you cry,
you always think it's time.

Flower in the wind,
where are you going?
You may have sinned
and stopped growing.

Why are you so afraid?
Always shivering and bickering
You always have a maid
Why aren't you listening?

Words don't mean a thing
Or do they?
You're just a fling
Hurts, nay?

Staring at the daystar,
why is it so afar?
Does it hate the way we live
Or is it because in the wrong we believe?

Notorious it may seem,
fixing at the seams
Why is it notorious?
You're just oblivious.

Thus, would I hate
Doesn't have an excuse.
It may be too late,
You lose

How much it annoys!
Where is that voice?!
Boys will be boys
But the girls, who knows?

A poem made by my friend, Jerrika. (It's her first poem!)
23W
Two hearts within a man
As he found out, he ran.
Went away, hid in shame
Now he knows it's all a game.

I ask and you say nothing
You only tell me when it's late.
And the same thing kept repeating
Until I stopped and said no more.

You'd pass by me like time
And easily see right through me
Guess that's what I deserve,
To be treated as nonexistent.

Was I the first to avoid? To ignore?
I was always there for you.
I was your blue curtain
Now I'm just your dusty shelf.

I changed because you told me to
Followed the tracks to who you are
Now that you see what I've become,
You left me longing and wondering.

Here I am now, silently watching
As you enjoy; grinning and laughing
While I'm hidden in a faded corner,
covered in dust, insane and crying.
