Misconstrued Thoughts : Yesterday's Misconstrued Thoughts Today

I repress emotions like little kids who can't swim,
while you express devotions all my christmas lights grow dim.
I don't believe in wicked ways to deceive,
but it still drains my thoughts like a sieve.
Normal I'm far from that,
cause I'm losing my mind like Jared lost his fat.
I'm like a record without a sleeve,
scratched and repeating picking fights with Steve,
like Captain Obvious and Doctor Definitely,
I defend truth until we reach the sum of infinity.
You want to understand me,
then go get an encyclopedia, turn off the mass media,
start at A I'll meet you at Z.
What more can I do or even try to say,
I'll season this thought like hay,
or better yet Ms. Dash,
because I'll sell out like T-Boz only for less cash.
Am I making sense? Is that what you expect?
I never finished elementary cause I'm a reject.
My education level ain't level at all.
I'm like that kid playing DDRMAX at the mall.
My whole life is lights and movement,
And as far as I'm concerned there's no room for improvement.
Now I'm sore and its more than how I feel.
Its just this man with no teeth struggling to keep it real.
Reel to reel wall to wall and up to the ceiling.
Reread what I wrote if you know how I'm feeling.

The Squirrel Crossing
Sitting at the squirrel crossing
trying to catch up on some flossing
Jumping around the trees
Oops i ran into some bees

The Happy Song.
You put me down the drain
I'm holdin to the main
You put me down the hole in the wall

We could be happy
We could get married
And I'll call you mine- inspired by somebody moore

This one's called "Finally Alive"

Someone tie me down
before I float away
I'll hold my breath
in hopes that time will stand still
It's been so long
since I've felt this way
A feeling so refreshing--
I'm like a giddy child with a brand new toy
Bubbling over with excitement and joy
Stop the world from spinning
so I can slowly savor this moment
And enjoy it before it fades away
~JAE~

By the way Jerm, nice usage of Radiohead song titles. Very creative.

floating..
seemingly unknowing
grateful for temporary ignorance
certian of speculated bliss
ooh shakalaka..ooh shakalaka
all i want is chocolate

ohh i dont hate it

An Ordinary Conversation in My Life

"hey let me try that"- somebody new
"ooooowwwwww"- somebody new

The Madness Never Sleeps

Go stand by the funeral tree,
no closer than the background..
go there and look for me,
see if I can be found..
know that one day
when the sky’s darkening,
on a hilltop far away,
you’ll see me walking..
shuffling feet through
autumn leaves..
I won’t speak a word,
but you’ll know it’s me..

go walk along the mountain road
under that certain patch of sky
where the sun always seemed to fall
and though you’ll hear my sighs
know that I’m not troubled
by the coming night
I see that same sun climbing
from the corners of your eyes..

go down to where we skipped
stones across the grey lagoon
go there and look for me
and wait by the fallen bridges
I’ll meet you there soon
I’ll be there soon..
I promise.

This is a poem I wrote when I was four for school, and it's called...

THE ROAD

Going down the road
Going 94
Going so fast
I fell out the door

just wanted to say that was some great work guyz n galz keep those creative thoughts goin!

when the poet has no more rhymes to say
and the children have grown too old to play
and a sailor has found a wave he's satisfied with
to end his time and his place with his portion of wind
theres a climber who's feet are a solid stone
and his eyes that have seen now wander and long
for the scenery that lives now far with its own ideas and conceptions of right and of wrong
now you sit in a silence with a wish to the phone
then it rings, there's a voice, but you're still all alone
