THIS FEELING

i dont know how it started,
or even where it began,
but this feeling deep inside of me
has something different planned
i feel as sometimes i dont know you
and you couldnt care less
and i am paranoid about losing you
this i must confess
but then how can you really blame me
as wonderful as you are
you couldnt and wouldnt bother seeing me
not even with a new car
you complain whenever i try my hardest
something you could not see
but every painful word you said
has eaten away a part of me
i love you with all my heart and soul
you know for you i'd die
but when i try to show these feelings
you somehow make me cry
all i need to know
is if you still feel the same way too
because baby, you hardy tell me
and the times you do are too few

SHATTERED DREAMS

she watched him walk on past,
holding her breath as he did,
shed seen him everyday
since she was a little kid
at first it meant nothing
they were much too young
but now they where both adults
and something needed to be done
tomorrow she told herself
like all the days gone past
then she'll do something about it
just like the days that were last
then tomorrow came,
and she took a great deep breath
slowly walked up to him and said
there's something i must confess
he looked at her smiling
waiting for her to speak
and as she continued
her knees began to feel weak
she told him how she liked him
and wanted to speak to him before
and asked him to a date soon
hoping he'd say 'sure'
but his gentle eyes flickered
and he innocently spoke
i would love to get to know you
but on a different note
i am getting married
this weekend that is to come
im sorry but you;ve missed your chance
and with that he was gone

Death in Life

Poem by Heather Iriye

I am nothing but a shadow

A silhouette from distant parts

I creep around in darkness

And hide in many hearts

I’m nothing but a memory

A deep and ominous thought

I consume the souls of many

Refusing to be taught

Destruction follows in my path

Death walks by my side

We leave our scars around the world

Upon the wind, we ride

I am here amongst you now

I’m bitter as the snow

And if I enter in your heart

True love you’ll never know

My name is Hate, I take my toll

The thought of love, I mock

And if you cease to shut me out

Away from God, you’ll walk

So hear me now, and listen well

But once will this be said:

If I rest within your heart

Accept your soul as dead
