Lost Voice

Location

I've never had a discussion with my class

Or even an input.

I might as well walk right out of her classroom

They wouldn't notice.

I hide in the corner of the room and they don’t know

I’m there.

The students have their own groups, ones where

I don’t belong.

Sometimes I wonder if it is just

Favoritism.

But it’s not, and I am just that person that is

Forgotten.

She, the teacher, leaves my hand to dangle in the air

Ignored.

How can a teacher get away with being so

Cruel?

I thought discussions were about

Equal opportunities?

All I want is a chance to

Speak.

It is too much to ask for to just

Be heard?

Dream Catcher

      

Be my sleeping guard 

The soldier of my dreams 

Hold me in your arms 

Wake me when I scream. 

Be my protector of uncontrolled unconscious thoughts 

Lead me through these things I've fought 

This mind can bring me wonders untold 

But only through the beautiful contrast of the darkest fear it holds. 

Be my cradle from all things within.

Pull me back from where my mind has been. 

But when I smile in your arms, and you feel my love.. 

There's no need my darling, I've already woken up.

The happy job

One job......May change my life

One job could make things all better

One job can help me forget my struggles

 

With one job I could get away from

My alcoholic father and support my young sisters

One job that will let my creativity shine

but at the same time let me

go out to dine.

 

One job that will let me travel, meet new people

and develop new cultures and traditions.

A job I could eat all the rice and drink all the tea

that I can devour. Most of all The job that

will make me,

Happy

Memoranda

Proverbs 17:10 

10 A rebuke makes a greater impression on a discerning person
than a hundred blows on a fool.

 

A picture is worth a thousand words

 

Memo

 

Pictures bring back memories … glimpses of sorts

Vivid impressions that never lost the source

Slightly covered edges to trigger imagination

But all in all reality as it runs its timely course

 

Deep within our structure memory resides

How it computes for sure is everyone’s guess

Seldom it represents what I want to know

For that part develops through habits at best

 

Is it a picture or a thought that triggers a moment of recall?

Maybe it does take both together to makes sense of it all

What part plays the heart in the freedom of being caught?

Is it somehow for the better as inside the vision is sought?

 

Freedom of expression is that only one’s own right?

To simply address within what without can’t understand

Continuous conclusions as feelings are protecting the pride

That is waiting to be the kingpin with just a lousy hand

I write.

Thu, 09/03/2020 - 13:22 -- G.S.

I like to write,

It help's me think.

Why my life,

Is incomplete.

I calm down, 

And start to write.

I write about, 

My life's fight.

I write about hope's,

I write about plan's.

I write about thing's,

I don't understand.

I write about fate,

And it's strange little way's.

Of creeping up,

And making me pay.

But I hold on,

By making time.

Trying to clear space,

For my mind.

So that mabye,

I could see.

The step's I feel,

Ahead of me.

                                  G.S. / 88

Pain Induced Poetry

Location

I love you so much that I sometimes have to pause and tell myself.. “get a grip.” 
But see the crazy thing about it is that, I don’t mind losing my mind over you….
I’m a huge contradiction that stands between silly metaphors and similes because my love for you… is indescribable.
See, every since I have met you, being without you is nearly unbearable. And the feelings I have for you are immeasurable. And if I could jus.. stretch out my arms and have them expand to the fullest lengths of this earth or even this universe, that still wouldn’t be enough.
See the image of you has been pinned up in the back of my eye lids so that all I see is you. 
And.. with you, the sky isn’t even blue anymore. Coz being with you has made me see more.. “no the sky isn’t blue, dammit it’s periwinkle.” 
And now I find beauty in even the strangest things.
Like the minor wrinkles in the figment of my idea of perfection don’t even matter. 
And once again I find myself questioning the smallest things.. and even the big things like the rings on Saturn.
And I know that seems crazy and probably doesn’t even make sense and can stand to be irrelevant but since I’ve met you, things no longer jus… click.
And frankly, I don’t mind that one bit.
See, I don’t need things to click or make sense because when you are around, you are my clarity.
When my vision becomes blurred and I’m not quite sure, you are the prescription prescribed to me.
And I know these words that I speak root deep but this is what I feel for you.
Like the rose that grew from concrete, you have manifested inside me and scrawled from my mouth and uttered sweetly across my lips.
And I knew.. I knew if I ever encountered love, I’d be able to recognize it with my own eyes and stand to be my own witness so that whenever it was brought up in conversation, I could speak on my own behalf on the subject.
So now whenever I’m asked about my first real encounter, I tell them “I’m currently in it.”
And if you need me to break that down or make it more clear…
I can do that.
Because what I’m saying is that, like an 808 drum, my heart beats loud enough for a deaf man to hear it because I get that rush from the thought of you.
My hands, they tremble because they yearn and long to touch you.
And I st-st-stutter because you simply make me nervous because of all your amazing graces.
And women no longer have faces and songs don’t have endings and words don’t hold proper meaning and this is simply because…. I found you.
So now whenever people bag on love and how stupid the shit is..
I bring up this.
Simply because you’ve given me a new found belief in what it really is.

Thank you.

The Other Me

In public I hide,

I mask myself,

They think I'm all kind,

Just a smart nice kid,

Little do they know the other me,

The one that comes out when nobodies around,

The me that they would never like,

He's negative and sad for all his life,

He comes and goes,

But somehow always stays,

He is the other me,

The me I don't like,

And the one that can't stay.

Asleep Under Stars

Thu, 07/16/2015 - 07:57 -- Grumpy
Drifting towards sleep, surrounded by stars
An open bewildering sight up above
Amazed by the beauty as the moon lights the sky
Lost in the arms of the one that I love
 
On a warm autumn evening, the campfire aglow
Whispering words to each other, 
Mentioning all of the signs that we know
Treating the night as a welcoming brother
 
We eventually give in to the feeling of calm
And in sleep, our eyes close
Like the stars in the sky, an enveloping balm
Keeps us safe, until the welcoming dawn
