LostHippy's blog: "Poems"

People are lonely- Because they build walls- Instead of bridges- People are caring- People are sharing- People are friendly- To one and to all- So no one can see their frayed edges- People hide their pain- By acting sane- When they feel insane- People are blind- When they're weakening- Until they find Serenity.

Watch those with the sad eyes- Trying to hide their pain- Putting on a happy disguise- So no one will ask them to explain- Always ready to run away- If not tomorrow- Then today!

I THOUGHT WRONG I thought you were my friend- I trusted you not to tell- All the secrets- That I kept hidden so well- I thought you cared about me- But you made me see- How much you betrayed me- I thought I could trust you- But I can play your game too- I thought you loved me- I thought that you would never hurt me- But you almost killed me- I thought I loved you- I guess I thought wrong.

WORDS OF WISDOM You always knew the prefect words to say- That made all the problems go away- You're so wise- But you keep it in disguise- Sure you said things that I didn't want to hear- But I always stayed near- We live separate lives- You have yours- And I have mine- We've had our share of problems- But we always worked them out- Sometimes I felt like your mother- Even though I wanted to be your lover- You've told me so many times how you feel about me- But can't you see- All the love that I feel for you- You mean so much to me- In my eyes and in my heart- But I chose to play the wrong part- Your Words of Wisdom- Mean so much- Maybe one day I can return them.

WISDOM Rest assured in his stare- And let him melt away the chill- But when the time must surely come- Go on and leave him- Grow as the trees of freshened spring- Learn as swift as the eagle flies- Carry always the lamp of the future- Until the day it dies- And you will know when wisdom comes- For it will soothe your tattered soul- And lend it wings to make the flight- Through the night back to it's maker- Love will light your dawn- And burn your face with passion- Wrinkle it with age- And lead you down the path to- Tomorrow.

WHAT HAPPENED Was it me- Did I do something wrong- Where is our love- that used to be so strong- Tell me everything- Everything that I did- What Happened- We used to be so close- Like two lovers nailed to a cross- We used to talk everynight- Now you're no where in sight- Where did you go- When I needed you so- I love you so much- But you've disappeared from my touch- What happened to all those nights we shared- Holding each other close- No one cared- I miss the sight of your face- And the warmth of your body- All I want to know is what happened.

WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT Everynight I miss you more- I long to feel you hold me tight- As I dream of the morning light. Soon we will be together again- That's when it will all begin. I take your smile everywhere I go- Because it makes me glow. When the time is right- You will hold me tight- All through the night- Until then... Everyday and Everynight- I will miss you more. Everytime you tease me- I feel you really want me. That makes me feel secure- I Love You- I know that for sure- When the time is right- You will hold me tight- And shower me with tender kisses- All through the night. Until then... I will miss you and love you more and more- Every Day and Every Night.

WHAT I FELT ! What I felt last night- Was just what I wanted- But it didn't seem quite right- I felt as though it pushed us apart- I was told the exact opposite- I wanted so much- To tell you, " I Love You "- But I didn't want to scare you- I couldn't sleep all night- Wanting to wake you up- And make everything just right- I want so much to be with you- But only if you want that too- So when you know what you want- Please tell me- So I'll know when to stop- before I get too far- Ahead of myself- I don't want to push you away- I've done that too many times before- This is what I felt- And how I'll always feel.

WHAT YOU DO It hurts so much when you don't- touch us the way you used to- You don't know what to say- When we tell you how much we care- The sound of your voice- Makes us shiver- So how are we supposed to feel- Those feelings, we can't even see- When you ignore us- We get sad- When we ignore you- you get mad- Even after we break up- You still fuck us over- It's our turn now- So when you wonder what we're doing to you- You'll know exactly what to expect- And you'll know exactly what to do- Because this is what you do.

VALENTINE To remember those of a time not long ago- Is to bring to mind many pleasant memories- These days were such happy ones- So simple, so delightful- What fun to cut out hearts- And crooked arrows- Or scribble the words, "Be My Valentine"- With crayons that always kept breaking- Images obscured by cobwebs- Have to be shaken free- To bring to light the faces- Of my teachers beaming with pride- Or perhaps dying of laughter!
