I don't think I have a poetry style. I'm inspired at a moments notice and sometimes with no paper or pen in sight! I found out a couple of years after my father passed away that he used to write poetry as well! We were'nt very close and now I really regret it. My poetry from 1985 to 1999 were destroyed by my own hands. An act that has haunted me and strengthened me. I allowed a jealous person to influence my decision. From that state of mind and a little bit of healing (ok alot), my very first quote was born: ** Let not a person enslave you with their love but allow you to be a willing prisoner of their passion!** So over the years since the destruction from time to time I have written poetry to increase my collection. And here I am today because of a good friend, Feathersofmoondust, I am sharing with all of you what I have written. I hope you enjoy them. I hope they inspire you and help you if any need lifting up of their spirits! Take care all!

Also, I would like to share some songs that have inspired me and have moved me!

Stabbing Westward

"Waking Up Beside You"

I've been so alone for so long
Forgotten by the world
Forgotten to myself
Your effervescent eyes have awakened me
And brushed the dust away
But I knew you'd never stay

So I memorized the color of your eyes as I lost myself inside you
And I memorized the way our legs entwined as I drifted off beside you

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

At night I cling to you, I'm so afraid
Afraid the day will come
And I'll wake and find you gone
But you promised that you'd not abandon me
And kissed my fears away
But I woke up to that day

But I had memorized the way our eyes
would meet reflected in the bathroom mirror
And I memorized your naked silhouette as you slowly brushed your hair
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

I've been so alone for so long
I forgot how much it hurts
To wake up so alone

But I memorized how warm your body felt
as you lay half asleep beside me
And I memorized the way the sunlight
filled the room and played upon your body

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

It's kind of a slow thumping beat song that talks about longing for the one we have lost!

"#1 Crush"

I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fears

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walking
Hear your voice every time I am talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all The love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I would wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sail ships for you
To be close to you
To be a part of you
'Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you.

Sort of an obsessive passion thing! It sounds really cool, too!

I also like Evanescence, My Chemical Romance, Offspring, Disturbed, Korn and Three Days Grace just to mention a few!
