When I hear something dire,
I feel like I'm on fire.
I'm trying to burn away
Everything they say.
I think those words defile
My mind for just a while,
After hearing words,
Words of someone else's death
Knowing they weren't close to me
But still that they were family.
Yes, now my life is awry.
Since then, my life has changed.
My life has been rearranged
In many different ways.
In lots of different parts,
Those little parts,
They break my heart.
So won't you be there to comfort me?
Support me till the end.
So fend off all my enemies.
Just don't hit them with a bludgeon please.
And when I am disgruntled,
Please come up to me and mumble
Something sweet
Something humble.
Please be disarming
Very charming
Not alarming.
So please don't let me find you harming
Our relationship
By not being here with me
Because being with me is where I need you to be.
I think that I'm a prodigy.
Depends on what's inside of me.
Maybe someday
I'll have renown.
I'll be a famous actor
Or a famous painter
Living in a famous town.
Thinking about my future
Makes me feel like a silly goose.
Sometimes, I think I'm a recluse
Cause I'm all alone.
No one's here but me,
But that should change.
You should be here with me
To comfort me
Please, please please.
Unauthor's Notes
I DID NOT WRITE THIS! This is my sister Isabel's poem.
I never knew she could write well because she is a horrible reader and it takes her an hour to read ten pages, unlike myself, who burns through good books like wildfire.
This was a homework assignment for her and I decided to put it up here because it would be cool for her to get some good feedback. In case any of you guys did not notice, this has kind of shifted from an Inu Yasha poetry section to just a poetry section. So if they have nothing to do with Inu Yasha and gang forgive me. I'll be giving her the reviews and she is only like twelve so be gentle if you don't like it because she has never really written a poem in her life. But she is surprisingly talented, I found out.
(The first few lines were about my cousin Rebecca I think. She died a year and a half ago in a bad car accident and we did not really know her well but my whole familiy cried for an hour when we found out. Death has a way of doing that. Well, this is with the exception of my brother, who at first cried for an hour, and then he found out that it was his cousin, Rebecca, and not his babysitter, Rebecca, that had just died. Then he cried more. A strangely fitting mood lightener for a heavy situation like that.)
