Dust in the Wind - Page 2

Indescribable

You are the one
Who is always there.
My rescuer from the dark
That tangles and ensnares.
You are who's hand I grasp
To pull me from my dreams.
Into the reality
Of your love for me.
When I need you the most
You hold me close.
You are my only
Shadow of hope.
You are the shoulder
That i lean on to cry.
And i want to be with you
'Till the day that I die.
I Love You.

You and Country

I'm ridin' in the car
On my way to Northwest Florida.
Thats right, you guessed it.
I'm still thinkin of ya.
Drowning out the noises
Of the child and the tunes.
Trace Adkins is pretty good,
But he just cant replace you.
I really dont like this song.
But thats why i have your memory.
It is what i hold onto in the dark.
It keeps me company.
It's getting dark.
So Ima needin your light.
I need you here
To hold me tight.
The other company is good,I guess.
Jose is pretty cool.
But Ten Rounds aint what I want.
I think you can guess what I do.
I'll Wait For You. Heh,
That's pretty good, wouldent you say?
But shouldn't it be
Around the other way?
Never Wanted Nothin' More.
That's right. You said it Kenny.
And I think you feel
The same about me.
All of the stations are all breaking up!
We are in the middle of the freakin woods!
Thanks a lot mom.
You kinda ruined my peaceful mood.
Well were are almost there
So tis time to end this rant of rhyme.
As soon as im there im going to sleep.
For it is just about that time.

yes yes oblivion my man, i like it. I also like the poem your friend wrote, alot, about knowing about the girl who tries to be somebody else.

thanks alot! i love gettin positive reenforcment on my poems.or hell,even negative.i would like to know if i need to improve on anything.

Write some poems without saying "I." If you write in an active tense, you can express ownership without saying I. Also you can create a more poetic feel if the raw feelings and emotions are the center instead of the personal experience.

Good stuff though.

thanks Wyote.do you mean like using third person instead of first person?

Well not necessarily, but that is also something to consider. It is just good to break away from your conventional way of doing things from time to time. I just observed that pretty much all of these poems say "I" in them and it's important to remember that poetry can go just about anywhere and do anything. That's why it's poetry

you are right.i will try that next time.thanks.

Lets Try This Again

I need to start over.
To begin something new.
I need to forget
What i just went through.
I need a new touch.
I need a new smile.
I need a new one
Thats not so wild.
Experience comes
With a price I must pay.
Live and learn.
Thats what they say.
Was i being desperate?
Or was i being stupid?
What was i thinking when
I thought could trust cupid?
I'm starting over.
I began something new.
I just forgot
What i just went through.

your first poem about driving down a country road actually happen to me i missed the deer by about a inch going probly over 80 but that poem really speaks to me.

wow.thanks alot.but you are probably the only one.i didnt even like it that much.lol.but thanks.im glad not everyone thought it sucked

it just really captured what i was feeling in the situation thats why i liked it.lol but yeah your welcome

"There will be many more", she said.

Yes, I started over.
Yes, it is something new.
But i guess that i didnt
Forgot what i went through.
Instead, i learned.
I realized my mistake.
The trials of experience
Are starting to take shape.
I have found my new kiss.
I have found my new smile.
I'm glad i found one
Who is not quite so wild.
I have found someone
With my thoughts and views to share.
I have found someone
Who really does care.

Rape

I had no idea what had happened.
I haddent known what you went through.
I just want to scream and cry.
I want to take it all away for you.
I cant imagine the fright
You must have went through That Night.
If i could take it all away,
I would try with all my might.
No one deserves such a thing.
So why did it have to happen to you?
I swear on my life that it wont happen again
That which you have been through.

It's Not Regret, It's a Lesson

I wish i could go back in time.
I know what i'd change or undo.
From a silly bellyflop,
To an unspoken "I love you."
From an 'F' in school
Or a broken bone,
To not asking her out
And spending Valentine's Day alone.
I'd change that lost breath
Into a stolen kiss.
I just wish i knew
There'd never be another chance like this.
But whatever happens, happens.
Whats done is done.
That poem has been written.
That song has been sung.
