| Dreams to Dust My dreams die hard I hold them in my hand But I held on too tightly Now they've turned to dust Once so full of light, So happy and free Darkness surrounds me And it won't let me be.. I picked a rose for beauty Forgetting about the thorns I'm running out of faith And feeling so torn. Our lives are what we make them Yet mines become undone I turn to you for answers To watch you turn and run. If only to be young again, Innocent, free to play But that time has ended Just a mere exhistance, living day to day. Tribute to J.F.K. You were destined for greatness But that fates made you fall We all mourn your abscence Since God made his call. As a nation waits... In silent prayer You are now with your parents' I know you are there. Your flame it burned brightly For so many a year Even though the "hunk" flunked We still held you dear. As your father before you Your Uncle Bobby too We shall remember you with fondness Our tears are still new. Such a sad little boy, One single salute, Twas a dream that you gave us Now that dream is moot. The tears fell like rain When I heard yesterday, noon I'll say a prayer for you John As I look up at the moon. Song of the Snow Owl Oh, Owl on your majestic wing Fly to your Snow Owl Make her sing She sent her call out So long ago But it was lost In drifts of snow Through summer winds You hear her cries She's perched on a branch Sits and cries While flying over railroad tracks He heard a call Stopped and turned, Then he went back He found his Snow Owl In a tree Wrapped his wings around her Now she's happy Spellbound Tormenting my soul With thoughts of you I'm spellbound and captured Don't know what to do You bring out these feelings That I thought I forgot A passion so raw It cannot be bought Your image it haunts me Blows me away You make me smile On rainy days I'll probably never kiss those lips Or be held in those arms But always know this I'll always love your charms. Dark Skies As raindrops fall The day looks bleak I'm out of faith And feeling weak I gave myself And gave it all Was not prepared To take the fall. How you've darkened my soul You will never know Why does it seem To bother me so? I've shut down my heart So I no longer feel Pain that needs mending, So that I may heal. This story needn't Be so tragic Too much LOGIC And not enough magic. Sweet Nothings I think of you Throughout the day You make me smile At things you say Such sweet nothings Whispered in my ear If only I could always Hold you near... Your golden skin next to mine Described as "heaven" 'Cause you're so fine I hate this distance That keeps you so far.. I'll make my wish One the next shooting star. Two of a kind Are you and I Without you my love My inspiration would die. Intoxication Intoxicating my spirit Permeating my sould You're always in thought It's taken it's toll.. I sit silently suffering To have these wounds cleansed Thoughts of impurity I must make ammends New heights of pleasure Through true gift of prose You've given me everything Including a rose! You are my best friend, And my favorite mistake I feel like I'm dreaming Yet I'm wide awake! Justification Justify my existence? Why does it bother you You've no right to ask that of me So, you must not have a clue For I am not your puppet Your own personal slave Your life I have not taken, But a life to you I gave. Please give credit where credit is due, Is really all I ask I do everything with kids in tow 'Cause I can multti-task! Compain about my faceless friends It's ok, you have that right. But do not battle wits with me You'll be in an umarmed fight! Life Will Go On Jealous of another I do not have that right Did not meant to get involved Yet, it's falling tears I fight. You were only showing kindness Something not received of late, Still alone when you're not here Why do I sit and wait? I knew better than to do this For, my heart you'd surely break But when I lay me down to sleep I'ts tears that I will take You have a life thats far away And you must live it too! I cannot be so selfish 'Cause I fell in love with you. Do not leave with heavy heart Just be yourself-loving, warm and kind You need more than I can give You'll be always on my mind. Connections The connection is down With no ICQ I hate my server 'Cause I can't reach you This totally bytes In fact it sucks! To rely on this access We're all sitting ducks! Nothings been done On my page today Don't really care Just wanted to play. I've resest my connections Everythings right Why does this thing Always give me a fight? It's teaching me lessons On just what is where Learned whats on my hard-drive I didn't know that was there! By the time I'm connected I'll be a technician THey don't need fiber optics They need a magician. It takes them forever To fix one dumb mistake I think they have taken One too many a break! This had better be fixed When I sign on tonight 'Cause if it ain't They're in for a fight. Cry of the Raven Tears are shed, The Raven is dead. It was the grand illusion All in her head. She soared too high And didn't know It was all in Her mind A real big show Decided to come backe To the safety of ground She flew over water...... No earth to be found. So sad to know That she'd made a mistake Plunged into the sea Lost in it's wake. All is not lost Her spirit still flies On a moonlit night You can hear her cries. She cries for the love That she thought she once had A beautiful person and handsome young lad. Her life will move on As his will too She's said her farewell, A final adieu..... |

| Sparks to Flame Heart races, Knees grow weak.. Palms are sweaty I hear you speak Soft whispers In the dark You are the one I fell sparks... Before the flame The sparks must fly I pray this feeling Doesn't die. So enchanted Am I with you Very special You haven't a clue Totally captured My spirit soars Don't let go I'm always yours. Darkness Surrounded by darkness I cannot see Momentarily numb In a vault I hid Or so I thought Then you appeared Out of the blue The light burst through The drapes I had shut Rays of sun They shined at night Once again The darkness calls This time I'll stay And build up the walls The drapes are closed The doors are locked I looked at the light And thought it was real So foolish to believe That it could be right The night it beckons Fro me to sing it's song It is there that I'll go 'Cause it's where I belong You got what you wanted I'm torn in pieces The lump in my throat From tears that flowed freely It's still there I don't think it will leave me For my eyes haven't dried yet From your hurtful words I've tried I can't block them That double edged sword Has now pierced my heart Inserted and twisted Underground I must go I don't want any light This battle I've lost I'm all out of fight. Oceans Away The tides are changing I'm pulled out to sea Earth truns to sand Swept away, I could not let it be. The waters are calm As if they might know To a higher plain I long to go Plunged into the darkness As black as my soul A voice that is distant One thats taken it's toll Held powerless to fight the sea takes it's hold Had I not been so foolish A different truth would be told New senses awaken I try to struggle to the top The awakening too late Soon this life will stop An new life awaits On the other side of the dark One filled with happiness A new light will spark Once so very carefree I ventured away from the light I desperately hung on But I lost the fight Random Thoughts I think of you throughout the day You make me smile at things you say Your goldenskin next to mine Described as Heaven 'cause you're so fine Such sweet things whispered in my ear If only I could alwyas hold you near. I hate this distance that keeps you so far I'll make a wish on the next shooting star Two of a kind Are you and I without you my love, My inspirationg would die. Soaring Beautiful dreamer Come unto thee A passionate spirit So wild and carefree Soaring so high You're scared to land Come to me now, Please take my hand. Together we'll walk By oceans great shores Take down those walls, Stop shutting the doors You only see what your Mind says is so Was this all a game Or a wonderful show? Your lack of trust Shows how much you care I've no fear to tread Where others don't dare Your aware of my feelings Yet, still you tease Look into you heart Put me at ease. I wrote this for Lerk of the Unwashed Villagers, due to the fact that we never get to see him much anymore and we all miss him ..:) Lerk Lerk the evuncular He talks to trees We ask your forgiveness On bended knee. True, we don't see Too much of you these days Your boss is demanding He must change his ways. We miss getting *bopped* On the board now and then The contests so good Please pick up your pen Although your not picked As someones butt of a joke You should pick up the pointy sticks And give us a poke We need small reminders To remember those dear So get back on the boards Get it in gear! A mentor and friend An Oak standing tall We miss you Lerk I speak for us all. This was Lerk's response peom, it was so cute, I had to put it here. Thanks Lerk! No finer wench we have, I think Than lithsome lass, that pixie Tink! Oh sure we've other that would work But none have penned a poem for Lerk. All poetry on this page is the property of D.L. Thorpe.
