I hate writer's block!
Why can't I come up with something
beautiful,
deep,
and thought-provoking
on a moments notice?

Sometimes you gotta,
Shut off the lights,
Kneel at the foot of your bed,
Clasp your hands together,
Pray for God's mercy,
All for a good night's sleep.

I am an unanswered prayer,
Resting upon the hearts of,
The weak and wounded,
Like a seed that falls,
Flat on the earth,
Never to be,
Seen again.

Do you ever wake up,
Curl up into a ball,
Clench tightly at your pillow,
Hoping for a better day?

A real hero wears his scars on his sleeve.
Like a rockstar for all the world to see.
Even though I seem fine,
I'm crying all the time.

I first dreamt of you
when I was nine years old.
You looked at me
and I gave you my heart.
It was confusing,
but now I understand.
A wish upon a shooting star
doesn't always come true.
There isn't a *** of gold
at the end of every rainbow.
Santa Claus doesn't bring gifts
for all the boys and girls.
Sometimes people don't love you
the way we dreamt they should.

She felt like home.
A warm place with
no panic, terror, or
fear. That I could
escape to when things
turned sour and my
blood ran cold. Only
she was my home.

Hope is quite,
It comes late at night,
When the screaming stops,
all you can hear is silence.

Hope is quick,
It lasts for a moment,
After you've finally given up,
And need a second chance.

Hope is bright,
It's a shooting star,
As you walk through the dark,
Illuminating the path before you.

Hope is everything,
Becuase it's all,
We truly need.

Why is life so hard?
Fate draws like a card,
After the hand, I'm dealt,
I write a poem about,
How it felt.

I can't sleep tonight,
(Hoping)that she's,
Somewhere out there(waiting),
For our destinies,
To merge into one.

I weep for joy,
On warm restless nights,
In the middle of Summer,
With no escape in sight,

I weep for joy,
With the crushing of dead leaves,
In the beginning of fall,
Suffocates the soul,

I weep for joy,
When the lack of snowfall,
In the dead of winter,
Makes fools us all,

I weep for joy,
As the cool wind blows,
In the rebirth of Spring,
Brings hope once again.

I am Clare,
She is I,
We are together,
Bonded in love,
From life to,
Death and beyond,
I am death,
She is rebirth,
We are one.

She's the shooting star,
That all men seek,
In the night sky,
Hoping for a miracle,
But to no avail.

Me,
You,
Were two,
Now one,
I heard words,
Wrote a poem,
Called it a love letter,
Sent it to her,
But it was all wrong,
Now it's a distant memory.

Sometimes I wish my life,
Were a film playing ,
90 minutes long with,
Beginning, middle, and
End,
Things would make sense,
I would fall in love,
I'd beat the bad guy,
Happily ever after,
Right?

You don't miss me yet,
That's OK,
You haven't thought of me since,
Well that's OK too,
Your name is written on my heart,
That's OK,
You won't read it now,
Well that's OK too,
You once held my hand,
That's OK,
You held it os-so tight,
Well that's OK too.

Your love is always, always, always,
Ok.

I remeber seeing you,
I just saw you,
By yourself,
In a crowd,
Wearing all black,
With a sundress on,
In the middle of fall,
In the beginning of spring
I like you,
I love you,
Where'd you go?
I used to feel alone,
Your my one TRUE love,
Thank God I've found you.
I used to want you,
But now I need you.

I feel Clare,
Like a seed,
Planted from birth.
Who blossoms in Spring,
Then dies in Winter,
A kind girl,
***** blond hair,
With ready smile,
I hold her hand,
As she fades away.

Felt it today,
that’s all I can say,  
Resisting daily,
And it feels like I’m lying,
But I always take the risk,
Along with the harm,
I hate this desire,
Like wild fire,
I was once in control,
But now on a roll,
The sum of all my fears,
Takes it’s toll.

Mincing words left and right,
I might cry tonight,
Can you call me,
Before I sleep,
When darkness gnaws on my feet,
Tell of better things,
New songs to be sung,
Old memories and having fun,
They roll one by one,
Off the comforter,
Down the sheets,
Through the mattress,
To the floor,
Tears of blue pour more and more,
Like riptides inside my chest,
I need desperately to get some rest,
...please call soon...

Tonight, I stare into the abyss,
I miss true love’s kiss,
Feeling a chill run through my bones,
You are the phantom of my soul.

I never saw my redhill dawn,
Now we break in song,
For once I was trapped to long,
Joyfully, I found a home,
Nothing good is set in stone,
Burning coals which was my tears,
Radiate colder than my fears,
