LONELY
Am I the only one
who is lonely?
The only one
who has
no one to love
nor love them back?
Everywhere
there are people
who have someone
to love them or love.
Why don't I have someone?
I am human,
I need to be loved.
I want someone,
someone who cares,
on the days
I am sad and lonely..
I want someone,
someone to hold my hand
when the sky is dark.
I want someone
who will love me too.
(We wrote each part separately, but they just fit together)



IN MY DARK BLUE ROOM
In my cold dark room
I sit and snuggle
In my warm bed
Thinking of you
Remembering your sweetness
And smiling face
But now our time has past
Thinking of you will do no good
And through my tears
I had screamed
And asked myself
Why did you do this to me?
Why did you make me love you?
And you don't love me back
Why did you leave and
Give me pain
And still I am here,
In my dark blue room,
I sit and snuggle
In my warm bed
Thinking of you
Remembering your sweetness
And smiling face

UNTITLED
He came smelling delicious
How strong and slender
his body feels in my embrace
How warm his skin, how deep his eyes.
He is beauty
I didn't dare dream before I saw him
I didn't dare to hurt myself
But now I sing his beauty both
spirit and body, my soul content.
He looks, speaks and listens the
way he writes.
It is heaven to me to see the
shape of his lips as he speaks,
The curve of his ears as he listens
The eloquence of his palms
on my shoulders
To hear the quiet rumble
of his voice
that slayed my fear
Now I have more than
my life to love.

O&O
Beyond the love of any lover
There is the love of her.
She's always there.
A hand to hold, a shoulder
to cry on.
There's kind words, and caring eyes.
Encouragement and a hug.
Sisters, not by blood,
By choice.
Separated by distance
Connected by friendship.
Better than a soulmate,
A forever friend.

SUGAR
By: Lisette Costanzo
I love my white cat Sugar
She is so sweet and kind,
I love to lie down by her side
She's my little Valentine
Sugar is so cute, and
A real good mommy too
Because she takes good good care
Of my little Jamie pooh
I love my white cat Sugar
And I'll never say goodbye
But when she's gone
I'll think of her
And probably start to cry
I hope that we will meet someday
The day that I go too
And together we'll be for eternity
Because Sugar
I love you


DADDY
By: magickal@highschoolclub.com
Where have you been?
I miss you so much,
I sit here in my room and cry,
Asking my self why?
Why don't you love me?
Why do I cry?
Why don't you care?
Why do you lie?
Sometimes I hate you;
Sometimes I miss you
Some times I think of you,
Sometimes I dream of you,
For dreams are the only thing I have.
I have them to remember you,
But I wish I didn't,
Cause all I wanna to do is forget you,
But I can't cause your my daddy,
So for now I will keep you in my heart,
For I love you to much to forget,
And daddy I will always be your litter girl,
And I will always love you.

RESET PRIORITIES
a friend says
a hello
i receive her email
so this got me
to muse
still writing
is something i do
with more of a
fit in
or a poetic letter
each new day
some days
good
some
days tired
each new day
a difference towards
less anxiety
personal
get beyond
the questions
unanswered
and the road
that journey's
path
since now
with the
dearly depart
my father
my mother's
partner
more than a son
i have become
adjust
to this
new duty
strap
it tight
backpack
i rise
for a break
a few minutes
some hours
of my own
the email inbox
backs up
it is great
i have more new
friends
risks i do take
now it seems i
read on the fly
for those of you
who have not heard
nor have heard from me
it is not to
ignore
that is not
my core
to ones i speak
as best we meet
i listen
still
there are
questions
since we have this
time
let me
ask
have you ever been
shot
bullet rip through
the sinews
cartilage
cartridge
eject
miss the spine
miss the heart
shatter top of left
shoulder blade
to tell you the
truth i have not
though
the one thing
i compare
which i will not
go into too much
detail
we take so much life
for granted
i wish you to tell me
one not relate to the other
just thank you
for this
for you to listen
time
there are those feelings
to sort
it would have been
one thing
to just have my
father
expire
in a setting
i would have
been prepared for
he had been in the
hospital
and the doctor
tells me it is a matter
of time
to find him
dead
yes dead
is another
no breath
no chest movement
to look like he was
asleep
his mouth open
i do not hear the snore
it is great to trust
that life will
continue
have fun
i do
then there are
other days
so i say i have another
badge on my armor
that slowly turns color
from black to green
when the rage is relieved
to bury someone
is one thing
to find the unexpect
the life expired when
a few moments before
he was alive is another
so even though
you may never have been shot
have you just opened
the door
to find
a loved one
depart
