sorry I have them all typed up, and I sent them to my email address so I could post them on here while at school, but it seems I can't find them! So, tomorrow or later today I'll post two of them. I promise. Their titles are "My Sky" and "Broken Toy".

Here is "Broken Toy" 10/6/2006 I haven't read it since I wrote it...

I stepped off the ledge today
I never realized
That every pain I felt
Others, too, had cried
Why warn me about tomorrow
When I'm stuck in yesterday?
Why try to pull me closer
When I'm just too far away?
A single mistake was made
But it was so much more
Slamming everything in my face
By closing every door
What am I supposed to think?
How am I supposed to act?
I'm lost in confusion
And don't know how to react
The things I wish I had,
The things I wish I said
Keep haunting my dreams
And creating chaos in my head
A stupid mistake'
A second of joy
Created havoc and pain
And made my life a broken toy
"Please fix this toy, it's broken,"
Says the small boy to his Dad
"Sorry, darling, it's too broken
To be fixed like what you had."
"But, Daddy, if we try real hard,
Maybe it won't be so bad."
Dad replied, "Son, I'm sorry, butthis toy
Will only make you sad."
See how that works--
A broken toy is a broken toy
And all the things that make me cry
Are the things that once gave me joY
A wrongful mistake;
A moment of coy
Created pain and sadness
And now my life's a broken toy

Here's another...it's old, though...:
"My Sky" written May 2nd, 2006
The sun is a deep black
The sky is blood red
The animals all cry
And the flowers are all dead
Look up into my sky
And tell me what you see
Look into my eyes
And see the real me
I'm holding on to reality
But my grip is not that tight
I want to stop making mistakes
But I can't do anything right
Sometimes I feel so lost
Filled with empty hate
Sometimes I fight against
The thing they all call "fate"
My sky is not blue like yours
Or even a pale grey
My sky is red like my blood
Even as night turns to day
My sky is very fragile
It shatters with the rain
My clouds are soulless emotions
Distraught to death by pain
My sky has never met a jet
Or even a parachute or kite
The air is still and cold
Well after dawn's first light
My sky belongs to no one
And yet I call it mine
It lets me hide when I'm pretending
That everything is fine
I'm trying to find YOUR sky
But mine is all I've found
So why don't you come to me
And see MY sky from MY ground?

Untitled (I haven't come up with a title) written September 17th, 2006
I watch you all the time
I see the lonliness in your eyes
I recognize the pain you feel
I sense your desperate cries
So you must know now
That I'm saving you
I want to stop your tears
And start you all anew
I want to make you smile so
I'll fight away your fears
I want to make your pain leave
And wipe away your tears
I care about you deep in my soul
And you know I always will
Even if it means hating myself
I'll love you even still
When you need someone to tell you
That everything will be alright
And when darkness tries to enter your heart
I'll be there to fight it with my light
And when you need someone to hold you
And gently touch your hair
And let you cry into their shoulders
Know that I'll always be there
Because you need to know
And also need to see
That you life has meaning
Even if you're no with me
For, if you ever died
You know that I'd die, too
My life would be empty
If it did not contain you
My heart beats because of you
And because of you I take a breath
I live only because of you
And without you means my death
So when you're sad and lonely
I will be by your side
I'll eliminate the pain you feel
Even deep inside
So one day you will realize
That you have no more tears
You won't ever be afraid
Because I've fought all of your fears
The only thing that makes me happy
Is your smiling face
I could be anywhere and if
You're there, it's the perfect place
I'll hold you in my arms forever
And listen to your troubles all night through
And when you go to face them
You'll know exactly what to do
I'll tell you that I love you
And with a kiss, close your eyes
Wrapping my arms around you
And melting away the lies
The only wish I have is
That when I say "I love you"
I want to look into your eyes
And hear you say, "I love you, too"
