Running Out of Time

You can't wait for the Big Day
There are so many preparations
But it seems to you
That there just isn't enough time

You're running out of time
You can't stand the lack of it
But there's nothing you can do
Just work with what you've got

Time is racing by, speeding on past you
So soon, too soon, it'll be time
Life is like a speeding bullet
It just doesn't know when to slow down

You're running out of time
It'll be too late
And before you know what hit you
The time will be upon you

When you're really excited
Time slows down
When you're just not ready
Time speeds up

You're running out of time
And finding it hard to catch your breath
As you run to catch up
You're running out of time

Kiss of Nature

Wildlife is everywhere
Beyond the road
It is natural
Siberian tigers in zoos
Kangaroo rats, kit foxes
Mice and wolf spiders
A seal called Star
Little scents of the world
Exploration most wanted
Change the storm force
The bird chases dragonflies
After the daring chatter
Ready for double hits
Most want to see the white-tailed tropic bird
The sleek grey bird turned out to be a red-footed falcon
"The bird of the century."

Note: this is copied down from a "found poem" done in one of my school classes

Dragons of Forever

The magnificence of their majesty
They're mystery and terrifying beauty
Soaring in the blue sky
Above the clouds of day
Among the stars
In the black sky of night
Eyes that with hold
The wisdom of years past
Wings that have felt
The winds of time
Talons that have held
The treasure of ancient wealth
Dragons are made of
The dust of the Earth
They've always been here
And they'll be here Forever.

(Note: most of my poetry that is written comes out of boredom.)

Forever In Grief

I can hear the repetitive sound of your heart
I can smell the flowing sweetness of your blood
I can feel the soft texture of your skin
I can taste the salty liquid of your sweat
I can see the complete fear in your eyes
I can sense all of the these as I take your life away
As I drain the thick liquid of your life
I feel regret, I know the sorrow
You'd have been a sweet toy
I would have loved you to the end of your days
But I can't stop, I lose control
You grow heavy, you've lost your strength
I pull away and lower you gently to the bed
Where we made love
My tears fall to your face
you remain still you are gone
My heart is heavy
I run out and fare away
Your memory will remain with me forever
Though tonight will be repeated
And my grief will be increased
My life will never end
I am immortal, living off the blood of others
I'm a Vampire, Forever in Grief


Note: I wrote this out of boredom and no it has nothing to do with the Twilight Saga

Agony and Pain

The agony consumes
Thoughts are incoherent
Burning nerve endings
Scream in pain
Exaushtion seeps in
Eyelids grow heavy
O! to sleep in bliss
Without fear
Without the waking dreams
But the release never comes
The fear remains
With the pain
If only
I could be released
Of all my agony

The Stress of the Day

The day goes on
Minute by minute
Hour by hour
Time to me
Seems to crawl by
My classes drag on
weary minute by weary minute
All I get from this
Is more stress
Plopped on my plate
I feel like I've taken a bite
Too big to swallow
Every day
Is just a stressful event
All I want to do
Is hide from
The stress of the day.

Day Dreaming

Listening to people
Talk away the time
My mind starts to wander
And my eyes begin to close
When my eyes open
Far below me
I see bloody fields
And many people
Fighting for their right to live
Shocked at the sight
I close my eyes
Everything goes quiet
Opening my eyes
I see a magnificent castle
And small people
Dressed in robes of black
Some laughing and waving wands
Stars of multiple colors dance in the air
My lids grow heavy
And then I jump
I'm back in the classroom
And everyone is looking at me
"Well?" my teacher asks
I reply "Huh?"
