DUST

Do they see?
Do they care?
Can they feel the pain in me?
The Hurt, the fury, the despair?

This pain of rejection
Brings out tears of fury,
For, not only do they lack affection
But also competence as jury.

They know not right from wrong.
They seem not to, at least.
Is it because I don’t belong
Or am considered some form of beast???

I thought they were friends…
People to trust…
But apparently they transcend
To the valley of dust.

Not beautiful specks,
Not even some pleasant sight.
A Haze, as air’s annex…
Something gone by night.

Can’t wait for the night…

Twin Heart

I hear it beat
I feel it pounding
A rhythm so neat
A sound so astounding.

I feel it pump
The vital fluid through my veins
And also feel it jump
At the sound of his name.

That little heart…
So innocent it seems,
But it betrays us and darts
Into the most dangerous dreams.

Dreams of tender joy
Caused by the simplest of beings…
A harmless looking boy,
That awakens those fearful feelings.

With just one look,
With just one crooked grin,
He lounged and took
You’re heart’s spirit twin.

For though one is found
In your chest, beating away,
It’s twin is tightly bound
To your soul with whom it will play.

It will make you hop with glee,
Long with anguish or lust,
Cry for it to set you free
Of that love you blindly trust.

My First Teddy Bear

The sky was gray,
But there was warmth in the air,
On the day
You gave me my first Teddy Bear.

He was all so white!
The color most fair!
With eyes black as night...
My first Teddy Bear.

We'd spend all day
Reading stories and such.
So many games to play
With the Teddy I loved so much.

He was my best friend.
The one I could count on...
But everything has an end,
And, one day, Teddy was gone.

My mom said I was too old
To hold on to such things.
I felt myself go stone cold...
Coldness heartbreak brings.

Life ran along,
IN such a hurried blur!
In Teddy's place, nothing would belong.
Never another toy held any lure.

Alas, one cloudy evening
Up in the attic,
I found my Teddy Hiding
In a box wrapped in plastic"

I hugged him so tight!
I washed him with care.
Now, I cuddle every night
With my first Teddy Bear.

Ghost

Onde day, I was walking around.
Relaxed, day-dreaming...
Singing to my own sound,
Unable to hear someone screaming.

Crossing the street,
Moving to the rythm...
I happened to meet
A scene that messed my system.

A girl on the ground
Covered in blood.
I stopped hearing my sound,
I felt numb.

Poor stranger...
How did she die?
"Shot in the back, what danger!"
I heard the cop, before he sighed.

I felt sad, but relieved.
I would go to my family,
Hug and kiss them, so they'd believe
That they mean everything to me.

I turned and froze
At the new sight I'd come to behold.
The stranger posed,
Standing on her own.

But she was paler than most.
She was staring in my direction.
Oh my, she was a ghost!
Scared, I ran for protection.

I ran along the shops.
She followed right alongside.
I was looking for cops
Or some place to hide.

I decided to stop and confront her.
Who the hell was she?!
I faced her, looking for the answer...
When I looked I wanted to die...
But how could I...?
When the ghost was me

Look, there's the light
Through the tunnel that might
One day, Lead to the magic of flight,
No care if, for man, is right.

See that, in the tree?
A bird, who sings a perfect melody
Which man fruitlessly tries to copy
And who's results are sloppy.

"Hey there, Mother Nature!
How's the fight against Man?"
"Not good... Even you're in danger,
Though I do the best I can"

Life and Death

Life is a gift
Life is your friend
Death is swift
Death is the end

You can wake up today
But you may not tomorrow
Life never stays
And when over, leaves sorrow

Life and Death
Is like fire and ice
When done well the math
None happens twice...
And one gone breath,
For Death, will suffice.

Nightmare

I'm living a nightmare,
Can't you see?
Are you even aware
That that creature that tosses and turns
Is me?

I'm living a nightmare
Mostly because of you.
Because, now, you're my air...
Which you already knew.

I'm stuck in the shadows,
Searching for a light.
A blinded mortal,who follows
A strange path which might
Lead her away from her sorrows.

Is this the right path?
Have I not been tricked?
I needn't find more wrath
Than the one I already predict.

I need to wake.
I need to fly away.
I need to forget my heartache...
I need to keep my nightmare at bay.
