Banana Sugar Plane | By Maryanne

With their wild imagination
Someone thought that it'd be fun
To create a fruity treat
That could fly instead of run

So here I am today
With my wings stuck out each peel
My sugary coating to help me
Your hunger I am to heal...

Unwanted | By Maryanne

My disenchanted heart
longs for the love of another
My untouched soul
cries for the kiss from the one
But all along I've felt as though I'm alone
For I am.
And no one longs for my heart,
for my soul, for me

Murderous | By Maryanne

Are you afraid to admit your fears
Just speak the truth and make it clear
For we can see behind your mask
I know your hiding all your past

Were you afraid to set her free
The girl you're now thinking is me
But I'm not her and I must go
I can't leave you in this state though

What happened back then with that gun?
Don't try to tell me some "highschool fun"
It was tragic and horrid, I can tell that much
You've truly lost your secretive touch

Everyone can see past your fake little grin
Your just opening up and letting us in
There was romance and horror and murder and lies
You plotted her death and smothered her cries

[murderer's point of view]

Ok, I'll admit what I did was wrong
I started to feel as if I didn't belong
So I bought a few things that would help to insure
That she would go through some extreme torture

She was not truly happy with me anymore
She had no thoughts or ideas as to what was in store
I had the equiptment, atleast what was needed
To make sure her life would become so depleted

I followed her out to a dance at a bar
I stayed very close, but still somewhat far
As soon as she got in a car with that guy
Something inside of me totally died

I pulled out my switchblade and ran straight ahead
I bashed her up on the side of her head
I know people think that I'm such a disgrace
For messing up her pretty little face

I pulled out my gun and next shot that man
It was not really a part of my plan
But he made the choice, and I did the time
I am not sorry at all for commiting the crime
A Love In Hell | By Ron
When I heard her little gasp
I knew I did it right
When her fingers couldn't grasp
I knew she wouldn't fight

When he hit me on the head
I saw a bright white light
When he figured I was dead
He really was right

When I threw her on the bed
I didn't know what to do
Her head should not have bled
I meant to stun, it's true.

As I approached the gate
A heavenly figure I saw
Go back child, don't hesitate
He said, with it's heavenly jaw

Some guy left her on the street
And her pulse was slow
I started CPR because I felt a beat
The street light showed a crimson glow

I felt a blinding pain in my head
It hurt so much I was crying
I knew that i was not dead
But that I just might be dying.

She started to breathe
And her pulse quickened
It made me so relieved
I was starting to feel sickened

I opened my eyes and saw my hero
With eyes the shade of blue
He had his cell phone to his ear oh!
He knew just what to do.

I called an ambulance over
I told them where I was
Told them I was holding her
She'd been beaten by some scuz

They lived their life together
They were happy and grew old
The girl did get better
And love gripped them in it's hold

Lonely | By Ron

I lived in a town full of people
Their eyes were wide open but never seeing
Their ears were clear but never hearing
Their fingers were sensitive, but never feeling

I lived in a town full of people
Their eyes were clogged by lies that the ears heard
Their ear were deafened by sights that the eyes saw
Their fingers were numb from the pain of it all

I lived in a town full of people
Their mouths were always set in a grimace
Their heads were always hung low
Their brains were silenced

I lived in a town full of people
Their creativity was squashed
Their hopes destroyed
Their humanity removed

Where is this town you ask?
It’s everywhere
In the places where murder happens
In the places where everyone is defiled, just for being a person.

Mysterious Blue Depths | By Maryanne

As I stare out at the endless sea
I wonder who's out there watching me
I know of no end to the ocean
It's constant sway and waving motion

It pulls us out until we're too far
To make our way back to the sand bar
We scream for help, but we go unheard
The ocean's beauty sure has us lured

I'm out here stranded in the mysterious blue depths
Wondering about the number of deaths
Will I be just another on the chart
Will this tear my family's lives apart

I'm reaching out but no help is showing
I feel my heartbeat severely slowing
I hear voices beginning to sing
I see a glimpse of an angel's wing

And when I feel I've lost too much
I suddenly feel a caring touch
You reached out for my outstretched hand
and pulled me back onto the sand

But there is where it all went dark
Your caring hand had left a mark
Upon my heart, where it will stay
For you saved me on that dreadful day

It Hurts | By Ron

A Fear Inside
This burning wonder
Of curiosity wrapped in fear
Of things you do
Of things you don’t say
Of painful things you keep at bay
Of painful memories washed away
Of thoughts you never wished you had
Of things you always wish you’d done

A Painful Fear
It makes your nerves burn
With thoughts from in your head
With worries left unsaid
With a secret kept inside
With horrors no one
But you can understand
With hopes only two can comprehend
With things that might be forced to end
All caused by a governing hand

Tear | By Ron

I just want to let this void
Close
But I always feel
Worthless
Because of you I
Know
It’s not
True
I always try to
Please
But acquaintances still hate
Me
I wish I could just tell you
Everything
But someone who has
Never
Hated themselves just wouldn’t
Understand
Breathe | By Ron
I am now free
Not a worry at all
Loss is an old concept
I have no way to fall
I am let go
Not a worry in my mind
Fear is an old friend
Now my future is defined
I am lighter
The more I think
Hope is a new emotion
An intoxicating drink
I am fighting
To keep my clear air
Life is a thing to live
Not something at which you stare

Trees | By Ron

I've always wondered
If tree felt every leaf lost
Every branch snapped
Every limb severed.
I've always wondered
If the grass felt every blade cut
The weeds every plant pulled
The tomatoes every fruit picked
The fruit trees every fruit taken.

I've always wondered
If they worry about their seeds
Whether or not they'll grow
Or will another plant stop them
Or if the farmer will pull them
I've always wondered
If the plants in this world
Are bitter
Or angry
Or depressed about the fact there is nothing they can do
For plants last forever, but for us, it's a one way ride
