Elysia's Poetry & Self-expression

I try to laugh, live and play Inside I feel I’m living a joke today I try to join the fun and smile I feel so much turmoil all the while I wonder how many others know the joke I try hard not to cry so the tears and sobs I choke How many see me and laugh from knowing My feelings I bury deeper to keep from showing I try to eat and throw all my food away Instead of joining others I go and watch children play How long will these fears and feelings last I’m still unsure if it’s something I can get...

No one else could ever hurt me like you do You say you love me and still tear my heart in two My head aches and I feel all sick Part of me wants to give you a swift kick How could you do this? We were supposed to be together for life That’s how it’s supposed to be when you are husband and wife I so badly want to scream but just can’t let it all out You just sit there with your head down and arms crossed in a pout I am hurt, ill, upset and angry, and really don’t know what to do Despite all of...

When we first met I was left in awe and surprise. Maybe it was your voice or something in your eyes. I felt as if I was floating in the air. When you spoke, I could do nothing but stare. When you’re nearby my heart starts to race. I don’t need to touch you or glance at your face. In your eyes there’s this curious gleam, That helped inspire many an interesting dream. I’ve never known such a great desire. The slightest brush sets my skin afire. Yet we just have this incredible bond, And a... Sign in to see full entry.

We all rush through life in a great hurry. Every new corner turned adds more worry. We think we have all of this time to press, Over-scheduling things and over-loading with stress. Walking through crowded corridors with a push and a shove. Not taking time to notice someone that we love. Quickly grabbing a doughnut, candy bar or coke. Passing by a friend as they’ve started to choke. Taking anti-depressants to make us happy. Popping other pills that make us feel crappy. Making money holds our sole... Sign in to see full entry.

I wasn’t even looking for anything; We fell together just like the rain; It started with your gentle touch and a kiss, Now it’s grown to something I’d more than miss; There’s nothing in the world like being in your arms so tight; When we’re apart I can hardly sleep through the night; I’m falling, falling, oh so hard for you; I hope against hope we never say we’re through. (Never be through.) As we make love I stare at your face; Together we soar to a most beautiful place; You’ve helped me... Sign in to see full entry.

I loved you since I first saw you playing in the school yard, Even though you and your friends called me the stupid retard. I asked you if I too could play; You answered, “Hell no! Just go away!” You and your friends thought you were “all that,” While you teased and tormented me for being too fat. You’d curl your hair and put makeup on your already perfect faces, Then you’d turn around and laugh at me for my pimples and metal braces. When we were in Junior High I thought I just might stand a... Sign in to see full entry.

I knew there was something about you that I’d miss. I could feel it from our very first kiss. I felt a cold shiver from my head to my toes. I started to sweat as my temperature rose. I reminisced over happy times in my life, Then I wondered how it’d feel to be your wife. The night before I wished on a star, Went for a walk and there you are. I wished for a love that’s true, Someone to love who’d love me too. Thought your style was first rate. I could have dreamt our first date. When I’m hurt you... Sign in to see full entry.

You said when you first saw her she was your dream come true. Then look at what you just had to go and do. You had to cheat, lie and break her heart. You tore your own hopes and dreams all apart. Now you’re just hanging out alone and feeling blue. That’s what happens when you hurt the one who loves you true. You feel like you’ve lost your greatest of dreams. No other girl can take her place no matter how sweet she seems. Every once in a while she’ll wonder what’s become of you. Now she’s living... Sign in to see full entry.

Have you ever been ashamed to look at someone, Because of who you are and not for what you’ve done. Share with someone what you feel. Let it all out and be real. Does forgetting your makeup fill your heart with terror, Because you truly fear you’d break the mirror. Stop trying to be something artificial. You should know you’re somebody special. Have you ever cried at night thinking “I’m too ugly,” Hiding under the covers squeezing something snuggly. Or maybe you feel you’re too fat, Wearing too... Sign in to see full entry.

You’re my one ultimate desire; You set my heart, soul and body on fire. The hint of your cologne on the breeze; Is already enough to bring me to my knees. I can see the passion and fire in your eyes; You hide your true feelings behind black lies. I’ll show you I’m the one you really want; Let me tease you until your dreams I taunt. The strength of your will I want to test; Let me smooth your hand across my breast. I’ll send a shiver down your spine; You’ll fear you might want to be mine. You’re... Sign in to see full entry.

How does it always happen like this? All I want is a little peace and bliss. Everyone wants to be Just a little closer to me. I can never see the reason why. Maybe every word is just a lie. I’d rather be all alone, Than constantly hanging up my phone. I can occupy myself, you see. Why don’t you just let me be? I need my own time, you understand. But when you need a friend, just take my hand. Men I hardly know tell me they’re in love, I say, ”No, it’s only kindness from God above.” When I’m... Sign in to see full entry.

Nearly every time I turn around I’m slipping and falling down. I feel like I’m breaking apart. The only thing that hasn’t weakened is my heart. It doesn’t matter what I try, The pain’s so strong I have to cry. My every muscle seems to ache. The sharp pains and spasms make me shake. I start to worry as I close my eyes to rest. How I get up in the morning is the real test. Sign in to see full entry.

How can you say that you love me If you can sit there and make me cry How can you say that you need me If you can ignore me no matter what I try It feels as if you are always worlds away Can’t you stay on Earth with me just one day I feel so alone that I could just cry again As much as I love you I feel we’re hardly friends When you come home it’s as if a stranger walks in the door You say “Hello,” then disappear just after the bags hit the floor You say you still love me, but it feels as if you...

Sometimes people that you hardly even know Can help the world seem so dark and cold. Every other word can cause your heart to break. No one seems to care for mankind’s sake. You might as well travel the world alone. You’re forgotten a week after you’ve left home. No one cares if you’re here or there. You’ll never truly fit in anywhere. No one even cares if you’re alive or dead, Just as long as the rest of us are fed. Your life’s worth nothing but a job to a man. He gets by in whatever way he... Sign in to see full entry.
