I've written poetry most of my life, and for a while, I stopped because I was too busy with school, kids, life, etc.

This is something that I wrote recently. This is the first time in a while I've posted poems on the internet, so please be kind.

CONTROL FREAK

Why you trying to change me?
Why can't you accept me as I am?
I'm not like you, I've never been like you
And no matter how hard or how bad you want it
I will never bend to your will.
You can berate me, beat me, shun me, hate me
I will not change myself to suit you
I will fight you, battle you, spill my blood
To live my life my way

Why you trying to fuck me over, screw with my mind
Berate me and belittle me,
To get me to behave the way you want me to?
I will not conform to your reality, control freak,
Because your reality is a lie based on lies.
Why can't you accept me the way I am?
And why must you say, "my way or no way"?

I've had enough of your threats and your lies.
You've cause me a great deal of pain, and I
Am through with your bullshit facade
Get out of my face!
Get out of my life!
Forever! Be gone!
I've learned to stand on my own again
And I don't fuckin' need you any more...


(I'll post more as I have them to post...)

It's Killing Me!

I've got it bad, baby
and I don't know what to do;
how to act, how to speak.
I manage to make a fool of myself on a daily basis,
because I am having trouble
keeping it all inside me,
until the proper time
(which I know will never come)
and it's killing me!
I'm scared to mess this up, to ruin this good thing;
My insecurities will out me and I'll blurt it out at
the entirely wrong time, and
that you will be horrified by my indiscretion
because...

I am hopelessly in love with you
and you are not mine to have.

And it's killing me.

That's how I've always written my poetry. As if they could be song lyrics. I get a rhythm in my head and write to that. It's kind of hard to explain. I've been writing since I was old enough to hold a pencil, so most of my life. But now, I actually have a good body of life experiences to draw from.

Thanks for the props! Maybe when I get done with my fan fic, I'll post more poems.

And maybe you could take up playing an instrument and make some very learned and awesome songs. Reading these sure as hell made me want to go write some lyrics, but I suck at it. Fortunately you and other poets here on the forum are inspiring me to take a crack at it anyway, so I just may.
