"I'll Tell You a Tale"
Oh how grim. Isn't that the most morose you've ever been?
I'll tell you a tale dipped with folly.
A refreshing tale of melancholy. You'll shed a tear but want to hear more.
As soon as the grizzly eats the family whole.
As soon as the fisherman gets lost at sea.
Because the best tales are those of tragedy.


"Searching"
What is it we're searching for
In a piano piece
In a kiss
In holding someone's hand

In a pill
Is it a thrill
An escape to a magical nowhere land?

A little drop of potion
Running through our veins
A potion so potent as to take away all pain

A tinkle of high
A carefully crafted lullaby
As each note hits a higher nerve
Progressively speeding
The heavenly fumes that send our heart reeling

The rush of belonging
Of finally being free
Being loved the way it's meant to be
Having all your dreams come true

What would you give?


what would you do....
If I said it's already inside you?


"The World is Much Better in Verse"
The world is better in verse

Let’s traverse
All of humankind,
With the swipe of a pen

Let us sweep
Through every human mind
With the hint of a spark
That lights a fire in men

I know not
What I’ve seen not
I feel not
What isn’t a part of me
And this is the tragedy,
That you might not see
what I see
In my poetry

Words plucked right out from the air
So much so they’re barely there
Each little line so very terse
Yet the world is still much better in verse.

"Endless"
I never realized how endless the sea looked
How vastly the night sky stood
How grand the world was
The floor such an open space
The turn of a corner such an exciting place
Until I longed for each inch of it to be
Where next I'd walk into your embrace

"Love Bug"
There's a hurt in my side
There's a pain in my spleen
It's an invisible little bugger, most painful thing you've ever seen.

He's crawling around. Now he's exiting my rib
And crawling right into my heart, thumping something mean
He won't leave me alone
He won't let me be
He makes my body ache
Soon as it's you I see.

He tickles my tongue
And makes me trip up
He tickles my knees
And won't let me stand up

He grows wings and flutters around in my tummy
He sends a shockwave through my veins
Makes my arms numb
makes my palms wet
And makes me feel like a dummy

He gets in my eye and makes me blink really fast
Goes in my mouth and
Gives me pursed lips soon as you pass

I've tried to get rid of that little guy
But he quickly comes back
soon as you walk by
Making me dour

And nothing will get rid of him
Except a cold shower
A good night's sleep
Or studying for hours.

So before you wonder what happened to me
Just realize the little guy loves finding other people to bug
So I'll fix my hair, look posh as I can, smile your way
And if you walk by again, you might catch the bug!

I see your writing is a way to express yourself. I found a fair few of these pieces beautifully constructed. I would say i'm sorry for the pain you've been through, but then that's what comes through in the writing, for a lot of us. Not just pain, the whole spectrum of emotion.

Thank you very much for sharing, I will check out your deviant art collection.

"Because that’s what love is, and I’ve felt it before
And this here
This here, is not love."

Hey but everything is love, everything...

...thankyou so much for your artistry

You said: Sleepless nights up studying then going to bed tryina fall asleep .....should be easy but its surprisingly hard. :P

Which was the hard part...? trying to fall asleep? (just kidding!)

I know that capturing words can be just as hard as the job of falling asleep sometimes... but sleep is needed!

What I think is hardest... is to be "struck" somewhere inbetween the two! oh, arrrgh!!

Woo! Thank you Randall

Here are some more for those who missed the deviantart link http://singingspindle.deviantart.com/

Pain
Deep inside the dark of hell
I hear a voice i know as well
The hounds bark loud
But ne’er pray tell
They remind you life just once was swell

A painful cry
A frightful sound
I hear them calling all around
The drip of blood
The beauty of pain
How hearts can squeeze out all they gain
A monstrous hole
A gaping wound
How i wish i was now in June
A fatal stab
Right in my jugular vein
But here the sputtering
Still remains
As happiness i find in its joyful pain
And while from self destruction i still refrain
I see that being hurt can only cause me one thing
——forgiveness.


Fake
The world is cold
It’s been since times old
We’re sinners by nature
Looking for pleasure
To make our pain lesser
Sexual addiction
Drug addiction
Pleasure addiction
Mind over matter
Mind over manners
Follow each other
Wherever other goes
Just to have friends
We’d throw out our soul
Just to feel cool
We’ll support almost anything
Mind over matter
But who’s in control?
Where will you be when you can’t find love
From all your mind numbing
And reckless decisions
The allure of the thrill
Experience over innersperience
Shock value over reality
That happiness you’re seeking
——-is it real?


But You Showed Up
Today was supposed to be a wonderful day
But you showed up
With your sadistic ways
Today was supposed to be beautiful and free
But you showed up, with some mean comment for me
Today I was supposed to feel carefree and anew
But you came with your seriousness and made it blue
Today I felt happy, just being me
And I thought you might celebrate, too

But being happy isn't happy with you.
