I know you
love me.
But you don't.
I see it in the
words you don't
let yourself speak.
You keep me safe,
hold me tight,
the way you hold her.
You call me
darling, call me
dear. Why?
I'm not what
you want. Not
what you need.
I'm not her.
Not yours.
Not even mine.
But me, well, I'll be okay.
I'll be okay.
I'll be okay.
I watched as they killed a stranger
On the night of a thousand dreams.
I'm afraid that I am in danger
After all of the things I have seen.
That night of a thousands dreams
Has sent me spiraling to hell.
After all of the things I have seen,
I'm caught in my fear's magic spell.
And while I descend into hell
The perps will surely give chase,
And to see that my guilt is dispelled
They'll see that I too am "erased."
I know that they will give chase,
And I wish that I could run away,
But they'll always want me erased
Until the end of my days
Oh, if only I could run away
But I know there'll always be danger
Until the e
The soft sun rises as I sleep.
My dreams are not persuaded.
The skies outside are looking bleak.
I am a broken antique.
My body has degraded.
The soft sun rises as I sleep.
I feel cold creeping for my feet.
It is never satiated.
The skies outside are looking bleak.
Curled up in my bed, I look so weak.
All my visions remain jaded.
The soft sun rises as I sleep.
The sweet virus has me beat.
My dreams of wonder have faded.
The skies outside are looking bleak.
Unconsciousness and I don't meet.
My dreams tonight are belated.
The soft sun rises as I sleep,
But skies outside are looking bleak.
Poetry, as a whole, is a craft
Best left for people with glasses.
They can better see the moon shining
And can write of it shining silver,
Albeit cryptically, with big words
So the rest of us can listen.
However, I've noticed that many don't listen
To the learned peoples' craft
Because they don't see the silver
Hidden behind the big words.
Maybe they are the ones who need glasses.
Then they too will be shining
Under a moon that is shining,
And then finally they will listen
To the old folks with glasses.
And they should. Their craft
Is full of big, important words
Worth their weight in silver.
And these people collect silver
The silence between your words
Tells more than you know.
As you pause, think,
Say,
I think, and think, and think.
I see your eyes flutter
Between sentences
And between thoughts full of
Spaces.
Where you have no words,
I find your true meaning.
And between
Our bodies while we embrace
Lay all the things we've never said.

I lied down to sleep.
Didn't know how it would work,
Tapping into something powerful,
Frightening,
Not mine to harness.
So tired
Dreamland.
What do I dream?
I want to dream now,
Escape, run, leave into
A wandering existence.
Can't be alone
Where did I go?
Lost, always moving towards
Nowhere. Always going, never
Here. They don't want me
Intruding on their reality.
Two?
It's me, but it isn't
Really me, unpacking myself,
Things I'd never thought
I'd say, never thought I'd
Think. A mirror of my thoughts.
I'm afraid
What will come out?
I want him gone, the

20 Reasons Why I Hate Twilight
1) It's poorly written. Stephen King can back me up on SMeyer being a horrible writer.
2) Those are not vampires, they're sparkly fags. And by fag, I don't mean gay, I mean fag.
3) Edward is a 107 year old virgin. Can you say pathetic?
4) Bella has no redeeming qualities; she's a very weak main character. Physically she isn't strong. She can't run away right even; she trips too much. She's not smart, either, she's almost brain dead (come on, how long did it take her to figure out Edward was a vampire again?). She's not very pretty. She's not nice; she treats her friends horribly, and wants nothing to do with normal boys who aren't monsters
Her pitter-patter makes me wonder
Why did I kidnap the kitty-cat?
Do I hear her meow amidst the silence,
Or the silence amidst her meows?
The pawing at the door
Is like the pounding of my heart,
Against my heart,
Begging to be let in
Or out.
She cries in the darkness,
Like me, my words lost into the night.
And her misery, her entrapment,
Makes me feel that much less alone.
More time goes on, more time I spend doing other things and mostly lurking here. Ah well. If you contact me, I'll respond, but I don't upload much anymore.
I know we used to talk pretty much every day but I don't even remember about what. Just thought I'd say hi after who knows how many years of silence. This is Nemitzu, by the way.
