Hey, If this was a year or two ago, this page wouldn't be on here. I would've thought poetry to be totally uncool and lame. But now my views on poetry have changed and I have come to enjoy both reading and writing it. This page includes poems written by me, and poems written by fellow peers and other poets. Hope ya enjoy! Email me with any comments or suggestions. Thanks, Heather |

"It Was You, It Was Us "I was dreaming awake one night When I envisioned the most wonderful sight It was you We didn't say a word Not a sound was heard It was us Then you smiled And my heart went wild It was you You kissed my lips With a sweet tenderness It was you When we touched It was just to much Baby, oh baby You were driving me crazy Crazy in love Chorus: And though you are no longer mine You are always on my mind And though I want to forget you I can't although I want to Because there was once a time When you were mine And you and I Were so in love... It was us Heather Laurel Serpico |

"Your Gone" "We arrived just after midnight I asked my father, "Are you all right?" He said, "I'm so sorry, but it was time for her to go." I responded, "Daddy, I know, I know." I looked at the body, it was so paleI I touched her hand, it was so frail I didnt speak a word and tears began to flow It seemed so unreal that she had to go We packed up the last of her things I realized my angel had gotten her wings I held her hand one last time And then realized she was no longer mine Heather Laurel Serpico This poem was written by me in loving memory of my mother. Rest In Peace. I love you mommy. Carol Angel Serpico December 5th, 1945 - September 5th, 2001 "Only the good die young..." |
"Friends" I got carried away, I guess you could say 'Cause when you called To apologize I could tell by your voice That there were tears in your eyes I didn't mean to be so harsh I didn't mean to be so crude But when I wrote that letter I guess I wasn't in the best of moods My heart gave in To your endless plea How could I refuse? For you've always been a friend to me I told you not to fret or even cry Over the heartless things I may say or do 'Cause when worse comes to worse I'll always be a friend to you" Heather Laurel Serpico |
"Each Night" "Each night You lay in bed Tears streaming down your cheeks Each night You lay in bed Feeling so hopeless and weak Each night, as you cry You wonder why you feel this way Why you have to pay Each night You lay in bed As your heart breaks As you lay there and shake Each night You lay in bed Pages of memories Turning inside your head Each night You lay in bed All that is running through your mind Is the question why you can't leave the past behind Each night You lay in bed Knowing one day You to will be cold and dead Heather Laurel Serpico |
