cops suck----

so i was at the bowling alley
cause i wanted to bowl con mis amigos
but it cost money JUST TO WALK IN THE DOOR
and plus they had hiphop/rap music playing which is gay so i was like screw this
so walking back to the car there is this awesome wall
which was formulated like especially for wall runs and jumps
so i did...but then bein stupid i was like hey i wonder whats on the other side of this here wall so i climbed it...not realizing till i was on the roof that this was as i said connected to the roof
so an officer of the law says to me "get down!"
so i immediately did, being a good law abiding citizen, or so i think
were getting ready to leave but the cop yells at me "i said get over here!" as i didnt hear him the first time he said get over here i apologized and stated this fact. he asked me what i was doing, and i flat out told him, climbing the wall (duh!) upon when he told me to put my hands behind my back and spread my legs, by this time i was utterly confused on why this police officer was getting ready to arrest me, until he made his opinion known that i was going to rob the place. wanting to avoid confrontation i merely denied this accusation (without pointing out the open back door with no one standing guard which would have made an even easier robbery), and told him my true buisness merely thinking that it was an unconnected wall, like a dumpster wall or something of that nature, but i guess he was too stressed or something to care about what i was really doing
"get outta here!!" he yelled at me
"go where?" i asked seeing as the car was clearly in the opposite direction he was indicating
"just go that way! i wanna see you walking down west vista way!"
i began walking in the way he was pointing towards, barely keeping myself from commenting that this was vista village drive and he had no idea what he was talking about. i felt that this wasnt going to go over well, with him seeing as he was already perturbed. so theres my lifestory tonight

a poem

as i call out to you in the darkness
i scream your name
but my cries echo in the abyss
and evaporate into nothingness
before they ever reach your ears
i stand before your face
although i am naught but a phantom
a specter, invisible to the senses
i reach for your hand
but it is like grasping air- immaterial
your scent tingles my nose
i remember your sweet fragrance
now it seems to mock me in my sorrow
as does every other aspect of your being
what has happened? what made you go?
was it something i said? something i did?
or is it simply fickle nature, not something
i am able to control, i will probably never know
i can do nothing but weep in this blackness
this coldness that eats at my very soul
loneliness is like a parasite, devouring my spirit
sorrow overtakes me like a bandit
leaving me for dead, a victim to love's cruel torture
emotions whirl like a hurricane, a destructive force
tearing away at my inmost being
did you feel this way at all?
no remorse when you released my hand?
no pain when you turned away?
do you have any realization of what you have done?
you have toyed with my heart like some sick game
treated it as nothing, shattering it within your hands
those soft hands that grate me to shreds
and i can do naught but weep - weep!
i am behaving like a girl and this-
this is what i sob over - a girl!
and you do not cry? how reversed this is
not even a tear is shed concerning me!
if i could make you feel an ounce
of the pain i experience- my agony
you would surely cave under the pressure
what keeps me from going insane?
to tell absolute truth i know not
perhaps hope; hope that we have a future together
it is what i desire and what i thought you did as well
am i wrong? please say it is not so...
loving you is torturous, what a pathetic man am i
just tell me what to do to make it right.
i will do anything you ask of me
do not trample upon my broken heart
it only desires to beat for you

i took the road less traveled by

I saw two paths divulged in wood
This will never work
You are different than I
We cannot walk hand in hand
I am called to much higher
Higher than you
Tears burn my cheeks
But I brush them aside
My heart is broken
But it still beats
Don't you see
You are the one
Who must change
For I am already changed
And that has made all the difference
Silence clamps my tongue
And so it must remain
I must walk away from you
And I am unable to tell you I love you
Lest I fall

Black,
Cold,
Death
Is all life is to me now
Since you were taken
I remember
Looking at your eyes
Closed, Covered with the
Frost of death
I remember
Kissing your pale lips
That never again
Could kiss me back
I remember
Clutching your hand
Limp and frail
Only wishing your fingers
Would clasp mine
One more time
Where there was light
There is nothing but shadow
The doves of peace
Have become ravens of carrion
As I stand here
Now I know
You will never cry again
Feel no more pain
Yet while your joy
Is now complete
Here my heart hurts
To the point of breaking
I can't contain my
Tears of sorrow
That pour forth from
My burning eyes
My God
My God
Take me away now
Carry me in your arms
I don't want this
World anymore
But yet I must remain
But one request I make
O Father, kiss her everyday
And say it is from me

bam!

Oh how it comes on again, these emotions like rushing water
But alas, rivers only flow one direction, so it is with my love.
These emotions weigh like a boulder inside my very being.
This is the stone on which my heart is shattered
Day by day I reassemble the shards only to break them once again.
When will I ever learn the lesson that makes me a fool?
When will I put on the mantle of ignorance and be free?
For without these feelings of infatuation and adoration, I am liberated
From the chains of un-returned love, yet I am a dull and pointless creature
Without them...
What point is there to life if I cannot love?

How I long for the one who will share her life with me...
How I eagerly await the day she will fall asleep in my arms as we lay together
Whispering "I love you" in my ear as she slowly closes her eyes succumbing to slumber while I stroke her hair.
How long will I have to wait until I awaken to her smiling face in the morning as she kisses my lips to rouse me?
How long until I hold her perfect hand in mine, memorizing the creases in her palm until I know their pattern as well as I know my own self?
Oh, God! How my heart breaks! Take my heart, Oh Jesus, and make it fully Yours! You are my first love, and I will not forget You. Hold me in Your arms to keep me from falling into the depths.
