yah really, she's still online but she's not posting!
I should prob. state that all my poems are written b/c of things that happened to me--they aren't made up.
The good old days
My good old days
Weren’t all that good
Their relationship was just a phase
She gave him everything she thought she should
She tried to raise me best
My sister tried to care for me
But after a few years they both lost interest
And that’s when my daddy began to see
Secrets, lies, and nothing’s right
My daddy knew he wanted me
I’d hear them fight in the late, late night
So he fought to win custody
I was scared with nobody to comfort me
Questions were asked and pictures were drawn
I told them all that I loved my mommy
I was their little game piece, their little pawn
My daddy finally won the fight
And to my mommy I had to say good bye
I would silently cry in the middle of the night
I didn’t want to leave, but I see now that was a lie
I miss my mommy and love my daddy
I hate my daddy when we fight
And I think of how my mommy treated me badly
But then I thank God before I fall asleep at night
He got me out of that Godforsaken place
I see the past and look to the roads ahead
He has helped to put a smile on my face
I thank him for where I have been led
So my good old days my not have been great
I’m sorry that it had to happen
I was going down hill at a fast rate
But I think of how much worse it could have been
I look to the future and forget the past
My good old days weren’t the best
But my future days are going to last
I want to go on living, and forget the rest
oh wow...I feel sad for you about that poem
lol I'm getting all these PMs...
It's ok...I'm a stronger person because of it, and I wouldn't change my past b/c I like the person I've become b/c of it.
This is a poem I wrote for my friends (The one that was my teacher, that was in most of my embarassing moments lol)
Missing
There is an emptiness inside of me
It never goes away
I hope that nobody else can see
The void is here everyday
I want to feel this loneliness no longer
In the past my feelings I have told
But trying to ignore it only makes it stronger
This feeling is really getting old
The day will come when we meet again
And I just cannot wait
Let the reminiscing begin
I am already starting to anticipate
The pain of missing you is terrible
I just want to make it go away
It’s becoming almost unbearable
But I know that it is here to stay
You have left your mark on me
It is here forever
I’m not crazy, I hope that you can see
You are going to get rid of me never
You’ll come
I know you will
Then we’ll have some fun
However, I will miss you still
No matter how bad things get
Or how far the distance between us
I will be a friend to you yet
And even if they think I’m nuts
There will be an emptiness inside of me
It will never go away
I don’t care if everyone can see
Then they’ll know the void gets bigger everyday
omg, I think you're really good at writing poems! That was deep! Have you ever thought about writing showtunes? :)
Why are u getting PMs? Lol that's funny...if you put PMs but make the S capital it's PMS. *whoops* ok, i thought it was funny.
I know, who's idea was it to make the messages called pms? thats really embarassing. ok, since I sent everyone a pm, they're sending me back pms! I luv it! I'm doing the quote idea tomorrow, i think, but i bet people will get annoyed.
No, I haven't thought about that at all...Maybe I should try my hand at it, eh? These really aren't that good lol. But thanks!!
This is one of my favs:
My Dream
Who has the right to tell me what’s right and wrong?
Who are they to tell me what I can and can’t do?
What and what not to dream
To set boundaries around my capabilities
There’s a whole new world out there!
God, just let me go!
I’ve got to break free
And see what’s waiting for me
The lengths of my sweet anticipation
Have turned into whirl winds of bitter anguish
If I could collect all my tears and drown my insecurities
I would not need their precious reassurance
The vivid daydreams in my mind
Make it all seem oh-so real
So real that I can almost touch it
And as my fingers wrap around it
It slowly slips away
And the vicious cycle starts again
they *are* really good! I like them because I can realte to a couple of them
Well, I know I won't get annoyed. I love quotes...specially inspiring quotes!!

I'm aliiiiiiiive!
Sorry, I had a private emotional moment.
I need those to allow me to maintain a level of buoyancy during the college process and dealing with my parents.
but those poems are wonderful. :)
I don't know, but I want to bring more people to this thread since sammy left us!
Sammy's back!!! Did u'r private emotiona moment involve a man-skirt by any chance? lol
Broadway Legend Joined: 5/10/04
no... I really really wish it did.
It involved staring at an application and breaking down in tears. Man-skirt not included.
yay sammy ur back!
oh, I'm sorry
Aww...you should have 'called'. I've always got a shoulder to cry on. If u've got Instand Messanger we can talk where the world of broadway lovers can't horn in lol. But thank God u'r better--atleast for the moment right?
*here* Have my man skirt...it's pink!

awww thanks :)
I just need it to be next year when I'm settled into college and don't have to be here being stressed.
*counts down days*
Well there's always Broadway, the ultimate escape!
sammy, didn't you love winokur's poems? (had to leave for a second but now im back)
I can't even concentrate in school because I don't need math or science, etc for broadway! u know?
My favoritest quote is "If you know it's going to happen there's no need to call it a dream". I have it as my signature along w/ many other poems in my e-mails. I sent an e-mail to Marissa and she's like "I love that!! I'm gonna put it up in my dressing room!!" I felt special! *loved*
