This one I wrote for my Semi-Ex gf (don't ask :loco: ) a while ago.

The need of you

Lying in my bed, I could see the moon thorough my window
I felt emptiness, darkness surrounded me, I was all alone
Tears in my pillow, with nothing but the sound of silence to drown my cries
With you in my mind, your name, your face, your voice
So close, yet so far, from my reach, from my arms, from my lips
Accepting life as it is, but hating it at the same time
Time is slow also. Seconds feel like minutes, and minutes feel like hours
Wondering how long will it be, until I can have you at my side
When will it be no more dreams, but reality?
When will I hold you?
When will I kiss you?
When will I look to your eyes and say, "I love you"?
I wait for the silence of the night to be no more
When it will be replaced by the sound of your breath
I wait for the cold of the night to cease
When the heat of your body will give warmth to mine
I wait for the day in which my pillow will be dry
Because I’ll you know I have you
Because I’ll look at you in your sleep
And think of how much I love you
And how much you mean to me
I wait for the emptiness to go away
As you will fill the void within me, making me whole
I’ve experienced many emotions in life
Yet, I know something is missing
There is one emotion left for me to feel, I need you, beside me
To embrace you, get on my knees
And cry in your lap, to tell you how much you mean to me
Just by looking into your eyes, no words needed
Yes, I know this is true love
I know you are the one
But there is a test left, which we must endure
Then and only then, we will be together always
Not until death do us part, as true love goes beyond death
It lasts all eternity, then, time will not matter
And I know you will be mine forever

Love's a big irony, isn't it?

Alrighty, I wrote this today after an experience with my girlfriend...

Nailfile

Padded walls all around
A straight jacket covering my body
One little window, for the world to look on,
while I rock back and forth, back and forth.
Always one tune in my head, as I rock to and frow:
Jug Jigga Jug Jigga Jug Jigga Jug Jigga JAH JAH..!

Um...
*cough*
*smack*
ouch!
*Kissityness*
*Huggle*

Yup, that's it. She was trying to use a nailfile on my nails, and I can't stand the feeling it emits onto my nails, as well as the horrible sound. So, I crossed my arms to protect my nails, and just started shouting out random stuff, and what was produced was what you just read...
 
How about a haiku? here are two:


I.
In Bliss I am lost--
having seen the rise and fall
of seven summers

II.

In your pain I writhe--
an angel imprisoned in
her own hate and tears
 
I challenge you all to write haiku poetry. :D

Here's my few lines:

I.

Imprisoned by snow
Frost creeps into the flagon
No more wine - Despair!

II.

Squirrels look at me
like I'm a giant acorn.
Time to flee, I guess...

--

III.

Like grains of sand fall
in the hourglass, so too
fall my tears for you.
