"The Unwanted Guest"

"I know you are in there.
I saw your car pull in the drive.
You then dashed swiftly to the house
And crept your way inside."
The dog is barking at the door
The bell just won’t stop ringing.
We don’t want this unwanted guest
And the devious acts she is bringing.
"Please go away!" we are silently thinking,
But we mustn’t utter a word.
We want this annoying person to go away
And leave her thoughts unheard.
She peers through the window,
Standing up straight and tall.
Her hair is getting drenched in the storm;
But we still won’t answer her call.
She rings the bell and knocks on the door,
Trying to find us there
But, of course, we are all hiding
On the basement stairs.
She finally shouts in frustration,
"Please let me in!"
But we mustn’t answer her;
We mustn’t let her win.
After what seems like hours,
She finally shouts from afar,
"All right, i give up," And then climbs in her car.
We hear the car’s engine start up
And the tires crush the driveway’s stone.
We breathe a heavy sigh of relief
When our unwanted guest is gone.

"Hate"

It is an unfeeling word
Harsh and cold.
When said to someone
It scars their mind and soul.
I don’t understand the point of the word
And we will never know why
There is so much crime and murder.
Let us please give peace a try.

I fear the day we finally see
All the damage this word has done
To not only people, but creatures of Earth,
But until then the war won’t be won.

The people in this world must learn
That all hate must go away
In order to have love
And peace in our world today
I cannot reassure you
That it will happen overnight,
But until the day of judgment comes
We will probably continue to fight.

This world, however, must soon learn
Before it’s all too late.
I pray that soon we will realize
That we must end hate

"To My Friend"

You have been my friend for many years
And I can’t help to have a few tears.
I think of all the time we have spent
Together, and how much it’s meant.

It seems like not so long ago
We met and a friendship had grown.
Through the years you’ve always been there
In good and in bad you have still cared.
You have been like a brother to me,
And this is what anyone can see:
That you are clearly my best friend
And how our friendship will never end.

This may sound strange, but it is totally true;
In my darkness your guiding light shone through.
You have always been a true friend
For when I was in trouble, a hand you would lend.

I can’t believe how the time flies,
And now we must say our final good-byes.
I know that we will keep in touch,
But I’ll still miss you very much
I still remember the first day we met.
I don’t know where all the time went.
I love you, Sean, and you’ll always be
The friend that means the most to me.

"Tears of Love"

Just like the rain pours from the skies
The tears flow swiftly from my eyes.
The river of pain I have cried for you
I nearly drowned in when I swam through
. I need to have you here with me.
I still love you, can’t you see?
I hope that you feel the same way
Because the pain increases each passing day.
I may seem like a depressed little girl,
But your love means more than all the world.
Everything we have had has meant so much
From your loving words to your gentle touch.
I know that God sent you away;
My feelings, however, in my heart will stay.
My heart feels so scared and alone
Ever since you went to your eternal home.
It still wants to hold you close
For you are the one it loves the most.
Please make my heart happy again,
Somehow your love you must send.
Tell my heart what it wants to hear…
The three words from you it holds most dear.
I know that you can’t say it in words,
But you can tell me in nature, that is for sure.
I have no other things to tell
Except to please get my life out of this hell.
Show me somehow that you will always be there.
Show me somehow that you will always care.

"To the One I Love"

I love you with my heart and soul.
You fill my life with light.
Yet I cannot help to wonder
Why we always fight.
I know that we are close
Because love is what I feel.
Through your life you have seen
The "me" that is real.
You have always been there for me.
Not only through thick, but through thin,
But when we have an argument
We know I’ll always win.
However, my heart is heavy and hurt,
And the pain grows each passing day.
To relieve the pain I take it out on you,
"But I really love you," my heart will say.
You are a kind and gentle person
(Not to mention good at heart).
I hope that not even death
Will ever keep us apart.
I hope that we both will share
Many happy years.
You know that I’ll always be there for you
To comfort your sadness and fears.
Though there are times it seems I hate you,
I love you nonetheless.
Let me say before I end this poem,
"Lynn, you are above the rest!"

"Confusion"

Mixed emotions
Are running through my mind.
"Lord, please," I pray,
"Get me out of this bind"
I need your guidance
To tell my soul
The choices to make
‘Till I am frail and old.
My heart wants to remain
True to my lover,
But this letter I received
Shadows my mind like a cover.
My feelings are jumbled;
I am totally confused.
Someone please help me…
Just tell me what to do.
My heart has been broken
So many times.
The end of these rumors
I soon hope to find.
It is really and truly
A crying shame
That I can’t go a day without
Pointing the blame.
I don’t want this wonderful
Relationship to end.
For he is my lover
As well as my friend
But I can’t help to have
These debates in my head.
At this rate I won’t have
Peace until I’m dead.
