OZZY714's blog: "POETRY"

Looking through the seeing glass I see the light of what will pass Hover cars and techno tones Refuge holes and human bones New pets, marks, fish, and cheers Pictures, art, food, and beers Robots watch our little kids Ruined math and screwed up grids Computer games and viruses Extinct and dying irises No sun, moon, stars, or grain The future holds so many pains Looking through the seeing glass I see the light of what will pass Wars with weapons undefined Guns, bazookas, born in mind Songs with curses new and old Porno art that’s over-sold Living on the moon is great A million new verbs to conjugate No water, soil, land, or love No God, worship, friends, or dove Dumber dogs and smarter cats Annoying birds and fatter rats Looking through the seeing glass I see the light of what will pass The future’s going to be great But let’s think of the rest With all the problems now, you think The future is the best? Now there’s wars and angry gangs Then there’ll be arrests Now there’s crappy haircut stores Then there’ll be contests Ponder this; if we can take How long will it be until it breaks? Everything has got to go But do we guess or do we know? Looking through the seeing glass We wait for all the world to pass

GOODBYE Watching the stars fade from the sky, the leaves falling down, the robin's last cry, the grass turning brown, I utter a sigh. The hardest part when watching love die, is whispering softly the final "goodbye".

Always Loving You In the quietness of the moment I wonder how you are; We may be far apart in distance But from my thoughts you are never far. I don't know what tomorrow holds The future I cannot see; So I will take today for what it is worth And be glad that you love me. Tomorrow does not stand apart a shiny brand new day; It is the tapestry we weave Made up of yesterdays. Thank you for sharing with me A portion of yourself; I know you will never be mine But the part you have given to me Will never belong to anyone else. So I will try to live my life Separated by the two; Doing the things I am supposed to do And yet always loving you.

Thoughts Of You Thoughts of you have drifted near I sense them in my heart Along with all the sorrows not being with you has brought My tears are no longer empty they are filled with pain and such The sea they form is lovely yet deadly to the touch. When peaceful sleep encloses me I only dream of you These dreams are what hold me when my wishes don't come true This longing never ends and will never be satisfied Until my life is over and my heart and soul have died

Oh death may say of dreams in youth - "You never knew her private truth." So much we weren't prepared for, Hearts should be nurtured and cared for. I stepped into this dance with you, I chose to take this chance with you! Facing risk, I knew the dangers . . . For when the dancing ends, Though many remain friends, Some become Strangers!

Love in my life is like sand, I give it care and attention, Then a strong gust of wind sifts it through my hand, I lose yet again

She walks along this lonely street no one to dry her tears massage her tired feet or calm ever present fears Seeing life through tainted heart making everything gray Alone, her life, anew to start Always searching for a way But life goes on no matter what That fact she cannot quell Memories ne'er to be forgot Within her heart they dwell So she keeps walking this lonely street Keeps searching to find her way Every night she lies down to sleep And prays tomorrow's a better day

Childhood Pretty little ponies All lined up in a row. Mother comes stumbling in Kicks them and flying they go. One glance at her tells me She drunk, let the fun begin. You see in my house, Being seen is a big sin. She gets in my face Tequila on her breath. I sit there and tremble Five years old and scared to death. A raised hand I flinch, I know what comes now. A black eye And it's my fault some how. Outside the world moves on Inside my childhood is gone. I cry in bed later that night I cry in bed and tremble with fright. I am hungry, I've not been fed I wonder how long it will be until she gets her wish And I am found dead. Isn't childhood fun? Long lazy days, playing in the sun? Yes, it can be, but not for me. I was never alive, at birth I ceased to be.

There upon the foggy night A dark and dreary, solemn sight And we with simple words that bite Did lie alone that somber night. There upon the foggy night My soul, it yearns for something bright These aches, I pray, perhaps they might Soon disappear to healing light. There upon the foggy night I hear you crying, an awful sight While tears of pain in downward flight Cascade along your cheeks of white There upon the foggy night The moon-rays shone from starry height And as I held you near and tight I whisper words so never trite: “I love you” There upon the foggy night.
