"poetry!!"

I have been trying and trying and trying to get to this page for the longest time. I have some poetry that I wrote last night and this afternoon that I want to put up here. Please beware, there is one (it's the second to last one) that is anti-America (actually, anti-war) and if we don't have the same views and you wish to tell me that, then do so politely. And Joshua, when you read this, don't make fun of me because some of this stuff is pretty not normal me. (o:

(written 03.15.03 - untitled)

I love you
She whispers
And shifts her eyes
To the side
Because the commitment
She's just made
Is too much for him to handle.

(written 03.15.03 - love)

I can't control you
But I feel your every move
And I know you'll never
Look before you leap.

I am the one who hurts when you falter
Because you feel no pain
And while I nurse my wounds,
You jump ahead of me.

You don't always make mistakes
But you can't sit still
Even when I'm content
And so you run off yet again.

I wish all your facets
Could shine at once
And then maybe I'd understand
All the complexities of love.

(written 03.15.03 - the kiss)

The kiss
Started out
As a simple event
Between friends,
Close,
And each with a hidden interest in the other.

It began just like
All the other times they had shared,
With laughs
And the cheapest meals
From the local drive-thru
While they stayed in his car.

She wanted him
And his blue eyes
Stared
As he wanted her
And her brown eyes
Stared back.

And while shaking off her childish fantasies
He showed her his desire
And while their lips met
She closed her eyes
Knowing that she'd stop seeing stars
And they'd be friends.

(written 03.16.03 - america?)

America, what have you done?
You've given into your temptations
And shook the baby
And painted it in red, white,
Blue and depressed
And when the seed sprouts
You'll send off the destructed
Just to cause more destruction.

And while the mothers scream
For their babies, strewn about
You'll close your ears
And look the other way
Pretending you can't see what you've done
While you expect the blood shed
To merge into our flag
And then be glorified.

(written 03.16.03 - untitled)

I love you
And I'd give anything to hold you
Anything for you to be mine
Again
Because I don't want you to slip away
And join the procession,
The parade
Of my memories
And my past.

I know, I know, I am just a little strange. All of that came out of the same mind... All of that came out of the same mind within a 24 hour period. Anything written 03.15.03 was written late at night, around 12:30 am, so it was really written today, but.... Yeah. Time for dinner.

I love Joshua. <3 Chelsea
