[Morningstar Rising]'s diary
I wrote this poem for the Christmas Poetry Competition on Elftown.
A full moon passes bringing winter at its heels
The days grow short as the nights grow long
The clouds grow gray with the promise of rain
The land grows cold bringing forth the first snowflakes
The streets turn white as the storm passes by
Tiny stars glisten bright on the snow covered ground
Snowflakes melt breathing their last breath of life
There mission is done the snowflakes one by one
Become part of the whole to create this christmas wonderland
HER LIFE
Its not what it was meant to be
She got married, had a child plus two
A cat, a dog and a gray bunny too
Her sadness overwhelms her
She doesn't know what to do
The road stands before her divided in two
The left path will take her
To a life that is new
The right path swings back
To the place that she knew
Her burden is great
Her soul is to heavy
Her mind it is clouded
She doesn't know what to do
For her husband there is no love
Their time has come and gone
Its her children that keep her rooted
To the place that she once knew
Still her life is filled with sadness
Even when the day is done
And her dreams of happy endings
Their time has come and gone.
My Brothers Bed
[A Halloween Story]
Devoted to his country and his family
Yes ma'am, no sir, polite as can be
A credit to his country is he
He volunteered for war
To keep his country safe
He left the home he knew
His family and his friends
The comfort of his bed
To sleep in distant lands
He tried to keep the peace
In a land where he is hated
But tall and proud he stood
A credit to his country
He came home with scar's
Unseen by human eyes
He's shed a tear or two
For those he left behind
He tosses and turns
He has sleepless nights
The memories of war
Crowd his helpless mind
Carefree as a lark was he
Devoted to his country and family
A credit to his country is he.
MEMORIES
Memories of you keep me awake
Turning, tossing, screaming out your name
My room is bathed in darkness
Shadows dance on the walls
A nightbird calls for its mate
The moon shines through my windowpane
Like eyes peering in through smokey haze
I see you walking towards me
Your arms outstreatched to hold me
I rise to meet your warm embrace
Longing to hold you close to my aching heart
But you desolve into the night
Like a spidery mist caught in the rain
I fall down to my knees
I cry out loud to you
Why my love did you leave me
Alone in this world filled with painful thoughts
Memories of you they are killing me
Slowly each day as darkness fades away
One more day without your warm embrace
Filled with memories of yesterday

MY LISA
My Lisa she is a living doll
Her voice is soft, like a ringing melody
Her green eyes sparkle brightly
When she says she that she loves me
Her smile touches her eyes
Giving her face a beautiful glow
I long for the touch of her hands to caress me
I long for her lips to press gently against mine
I long for her arms to enfold me
To hold me all through the night
My Lisa she is a beauty
Her gently soul is kind
She loves her son and daughter
For them My Lisa would die
My Lisa how I long to be with her
To hold her close to me
To whisper baby I love you
Until the end of time.
Written 8-19-06 By [Morningstar Rising], for [lost innocence] the love of my life.
ALTER EGO'S
I show the world my faces
They are never quite the same
My alter ego's rock
Each one has a name
They live their separate life's
Crammed within the same space
Careful are they
Not to mix their life's in anyway
They write little stories
About each and everyday
They love, they cry, they sing, they die
They are reborn again with each sunrise
My alter ego's, my saving grace
Without them I would surely go insane

LIES
Lies people tell them all the time
Hurtful, painful, full of rage
To your face, behind your back
Whispered here, shouted there
Swirling around without a care
Hidden secrets cloaked in darkness
Shadows dancing on the walls
Crying, grieving for all thats lost
Lies they break a heart made out of stone
Suckers are born everyday
Innocence is lost without any grace
Sadness bubbles like moltan lava
Streaming down across your face
Your soul it cries with every lie
Whispered from lips smiling sweetly
Proclaiming love thats never ending
Lies they cut your heart just like a knife
An open wound that hurts like hell
That never heals no matter how hard you try
That tears you apart from the inside out
So deep the jagged edge does cut
Right through your heart down to your soul
Lies to many have been told
By you, by me, by all
Lies they never go away
They linger till the end
Lies they lead you to your grave
Becareful what you say
Lies, Lies, Lies,
Please make them go away

I don't know why I keep coming here, I don't think anyone reads what I write anyways. It seems to me that life sometimes takes twist and turns that send us into loops and dives that we would be better off not taking. So many roads to choose from, how does one know that the path they have taken is the right one.
I had a friend who I am told passed on, he was a nice guy and feel in love and got burned. He tried love but it did not work for him and it made him so sad, it broke my heart. Now his bro is looking for answers, but I have no idea what the questions are. Hope he finds what he is looking for, but most of all I hope that my friend is finally at peace.
Everyone should live by this code.
two of my cats died today, were put to sleep casue they ate car oil. By the time the Vet saw them it was to late to help them. Had to put them to sleep. Its so sad. I loved them so much. All I can do is cry.
TO ALL MY FRIENDS
A Poem I found on the net
FRIENDS ARE LIKE ANGELS
Our friends are like angels,
.....who brighten our days.
.... In all kinds of wonderful,
.... Magical ways.
.... Their thoughtfulness comes,
....As a gift from above.
....And we feel we're surrounded,
....By warm, caring love.
....Like upside-down rainbows,
....Their smiles bring the sun.
....And they fill ho-hum moments,
.... With laughter and fun.
....Friends are like angels,
....Without any wings.
....Blessing our lives,
....With the most precious things.
I love this, this is how I feel some days. LOL
