Indigo Member	posted 12-25-2000 01:53 AM I blanket you with inconsistencies. Choke you with arrogance. And yet you stayed. The ceilings crack under the weight of my petulance. The walls bleed my abuse. And yet you stayed. Your body absorbed my passion. Your soul absorbed my ache. And yet you stayed. If I tear, will you bleed for me? If crash, will you bruise? You stayed when I couldn’t . Are you still there? Indigo IP: Logged

Indigo Member	posted 12-25-2000 02:17 AM On a hot dusty Monday I step to the edge of a life I can no longer command. I stand alone braced against the winds of ignorance. There is no room for pity no time for jealousy. To jump into the void would be an end… or a grand beginning. Okay I think I'm done now... I think. Indigo IP: Logged
richbo Member	posted 12-25-2000 03:13 AM Indigo- that "blanket with inconsistencies" poem is ROCKIN' girl! (or guy, sorry) IP: Logged
Indigo Member	posted 12-25-2000 03:21 AM Thanks richbo, I'm a girly type person... I think... Hold on a second... yep, I'm all female. And I throw the compliment right back at ya. Nothing moves me like poetry. Indigo IP: Logged
dh Member	posted 12-25-2000 04:16 AM Yes, the dead have told me of your child. Yes, I shall protect him, as you nurture him now with your milk. I will kill his enemies, should they strike. For that I will pay a price. IP: Logged

richbo Member	posted 12-25-2000 10:00 PM Hush now, don't you cry... Wipe away the teardrop from your eye You're lying safe in bed... It was all a bad dream Spinning in your head Your mind tricked you to feel the pain... Of someone close to you Leaving the game of life... So here it is, another chance- Wide awake you face the day Your dream is over... Or has it just begun? There's a place I like to hide- A doorway that I run through in the night... Relax child, you were there- But only didn't realize it and You were scared... It's a place where you will learn- To face your fears, retrace the years And ride the whims of your mind... Commanding in another world Suddenly, you hear and see This magic new dimension... IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII will be watching over you- IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'm gonna help you see it through... IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'm smiling next to you... In Silent Lucidity... (Queensryche) IP: Logged

Indigo Member	posted 12-29-2000 08:54 PM We slide through life a a rate to blur the pain. To stop would be unthinkable. We have been running for eons, yet no one knows why or where to. Religions crop up now and again with an answer-of-the-hour mentality to save our hereafters and their stock options. We speed to the cross roads hoping for the red light we know will never come, praying against the mack truck we know is right around the corner. All this in search of the simple things in life... Like Beer & Cigarettes. Just a fancy little bump for a thread I like. Indigo IP: Logged
richbo Member	posted 12-30-2000 08:57 AM Indigo- Just where DID you go-? (okay, i know that sucked, but i'm not gonna let a bunch of slack jawed faggots who are screaming for BenAfflecks attention to flush my thread... Jeez, if i had a dollar for every person on this Projectgreenlight messageboards vying for a response from him, i wouldn't have had to enter this damn thing to begin with-!) i mean- Ben's great and all but COME ON_!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lostfairytales Member	posted 12-30-2000 08:23 PM Somewhere he sits He takes to pondering the years A smile fills his face Great joy of the many memories His life fills his soul Somewhere he stands He just leans on a post Fears never seem to mind He doesn't let them near His life fills his soul Somewhere he walks He walks freely in cold night air His head down low Great pain rises from the dark night His life fills his soul Somewhere he talks He talks to the wind He claims she's his only friend Never ending sorrow flows from his tongue His life fills his soul Somewhere he cries "What's the matter with this race" He grabs his chest and falls to the his knees No one can help him now His life fills his soul Somewhere he misses His love he sends out to me He longs to be with me Great sadness blackens his vision His life fills his soul Somewhere he lives Life is after death But not a mere mortal is he A spirit is who he is now His life fills his soul Today and somewhere he lays Sleeplessness is filled in his body Tired, but too much awak "Why me" whispers through his mind His life fills his soul Somewhere he waits He waits patiently for me Someday we'd join together The day of the end of his hell His life fills his empty, empty soul!!!! What do you guys think of that? IP: Logged

Indigo Member	posted 12-30-2000 08:35 PM I'm here. Which is to say not there. But still within reach of your voice. You throw out a sound, bouncing it off the stars I catch it and pitch it right back. IP: Logged
richbo Member	posted 12-30-2000 09:09 PM lostfairytales- i know your searching becuz i've been there- Indigo- you are always welcome... IP: Logged
JulieMallen Member	posted 12-30-2000 09:18 PM Great, great poem! IP: Logged
lostfairytales Member	posted 12-30-2000 09:31 PM Thanks. But the poem isn't about me. I felt like I wasn't myself and another person just wishing I was here. I don't really understand this poem to the full extent it really means. Does that sound funny to you guys? I don't think I'm saying what I really mean right. IP: Logged
JulieMallen Member	posted 12-30-2000 09:36 PM We write what inspires us, what is deep in our heart, sometimes a thought triggers words we do not even understand as we write them. It's all good~ IP: Logged
lostfairytales Member	posted 12-31-2000 06:27 AM Thanks again, Julie. It is true that words sometimes just seem to float from the air and one has to pull them down and write it on paper or it will never get done. Thanks. IP: Logged
lostfairytales Member	posted 12-31-2000 06:51 AM Here's another: In the corner of the naked eye You're standing there wondering why Things have to be Why you can't stay It's only a lifetime away In the corner of the naked eye A tear is falling from the sky No one really knows why Till a phone call reports it in It's only a heartache away In the corner of the naked eye A soul is born A soul does fly Sorrow is often forgotten Yet, a tear is alll that remains In the corner of the naked eye A girl falls to her knees A scream "why" comes to be It has to be or it can't see It's only a breathe away In the corner of the naked eye Two souls are joined as one Screams can be heard in the ear Of the naked eye, of the naked eye It's only a moment away In the corner of the naked eye Tears are falling from the sky He was with you But now he's gone Oh, what can you do What can you do when the storms are raging And the people are screaming Your life soon to be taken For a life better left to see And through the corner of the naked eye Two souls are joined once again Never to be forgotten Never to be forgotten Only through the naked eye Through the naked eye !!!!

richbo Member	posted 12-31-2000 06:22 PM YaY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FOUND MY SEX POEMS!!!!!!! oh, sorry. i don't mean to sound too excited. okay here goes (FrederickCleveland are you in the house?- just wanted to be sure you would MOCK me-!) IP: Logged
richbo Member	posted 12-31-2000 06:56 PM okay- here goes... this one is dedicated to Isabel (becuz i said IT WOULD BE-) "Romeo & Maryjane" a poetry/play Alas! The sweetest of all temptations is the one whose never tasted. And so the story of Romeo & Maryjane is unrolled- As to the hearth and to the stove- A blessing of treachery, quick to unfold: We court to find young Romeo- Awaiting his beloved with a fine row Of a tastely bitter herb; listen-! Listen, but if you will, unto his blight A story still; ROMEO: Oh, Maryjane, my beautiful and most lovely flower! Thou art my teacher, mother, secret lover; come cast thy heavenly glow Within me thine, and feast thy lips upon My soul divine! And inhale did he 'ore the drench'd dew As true love did stand outside to stew 'gainst the window all alone. The veils of a curtain arouse her to spite-! Upon so solemn of a night. Listen! Listen, but if you will, unto her plight a tempest swill; JULIET:Alas, what's this, O sweet aroma of Romeo kissed, wherewith his lips lie perched caress? thinks she; For by this news i have received T'was I who was the more deceived. Away! Away this moment aught! For I in vain And thus cannot Such tradegy bear as this within The bosom of my breast-! Thus did Maryjane betray, Nay-! Nay- But did forsake her lovers true love of All; and for what, the sake of a secret Fall. And as far as cometh the day to The night, and thither the night to thee rend; This slighted tale of woe is again at it's most pernicious end. (Isabel- i hope you don't hate this poem- it's doesn't reflect you in any way- i just thought you'd like it...) [This message has been edited by richbo (edited 01-01-2001).] IP: Logged
theblondewritr Member	posted 12-31-2000 07:05 PM quote: Originally posted by richbo: Okay, now that i've downed a few- here's one about ants (which ironically has an incredible coincidence) FELIX AND THE ANTS- The ants. The ants, man! The ants get everywhere, man! They keep coming. You can kill some of them. You can kill ALL of them- It doesn't matter. The ants, man! The ants keep coming back, man. Today, I killed some of them. But don't worry- They'll be back. Because they're ants. They're ANTS, man. (I wrote this poem when i was on ACID, and an ant crawled across the page while I was writing it- I SHIT YOU NOT- dude! I killed him and taped him to the page- i'm lookin' at his little carcass right now...) This is my personal favorite! "They're ANTS, man!" Luv it luv it luv it! You've inspired me to write about ants!!!!!! IP: Logged
richbo Member	posted 12-31-2000 07:22 PM i always enjoy linking up with fellow writers. Do you have a problem with ANTS, too???? (just kidding) IP: Logged
