__Memory Poem :__ Those Days

That's What I actually Miss Those days of unforgettable Bliss The days when before you went to sleep you got a Kiss On the forehead or on the cheek. Nowadays the chances of that are pretty sleek I miss those days when I saw the good in everything The days I cried because I couldn't poor my own juice When I didn't care if my shoe strings were a loose I miss the slick and clean feel of my bicycle strings you remember those right? They hung off the handle, you weren't cool if you didn't have 'em Oh how I loved the way the wind blew on my handle bar tassles I miss running around full of glee Playing tag, climbing trees, playing sill games scraping knees and cutting shins scratching faces and grazing chins Those days in the summer where you played ALL day You did chores early to get them out the way "Here comes the Ice Cream Truck" some kids would say & That would be the great Ending to my childhood day.

__Memory Poem 2:__

Imagine ... A pitbull, a terrier, a Chihuahua, anything! huffing and heaving heavily his tongue hanging out of his mouth as a signal to inform you he was in desperate need of Water, H2O, Agua! Well, That Was Me. It was another 90 something degree day The middle of the afternoon the Sun was at it's highest the sweat covering my face tickled as it trickled down slowly but surely i was soaked in sweat But I wouldn't stop for anyone I was out to prove them wrong, every last one of them My little calves were being flame broiled they were on fire But I wouldn't quit I pushed my self and my bike to the limit I rode down every street just as they did I turned every corner just as they did I rode up and down every hill just as they did I jumped curbs just as .... I thought I could Our Last Lap around the Block I was the Last in Line, It my MY time to shine Everyone Jumped the Curb My palms got Sweaty, liquidy, shivering My handles bars were silk and my hand just slid of of them I had no control On My attempt, I came off the curb and my bike hit the ground As did I I slid, very far, across the rough, gravely concrete Leaving a trail of skin and blood in the street My Knee was now a huge open gash full of blood I looked down and suddenly became as mean as a Lion protecting it's Cub My mouth Agape, I released a Ringing, Piercing, shrieking bellow Everything seemed to stand still The Birds' harmony of chirping was cut short The Cat chasing a leaf ceased The kids' playing was postponed As Me & My Bike lay in the street as still as a mouse but catching all attention

__Ode__

I Hear you calling my name even when you're far away

Your movements Can't be tamed Unless you're in my hand

After Not Seeing you for a while I Run and Grasps my hands around you

Checking you Out To Make Sure Everything Is The Same

You tell me words no one else can hear

You expose names no one else knows

you were by my sides in my times of fear

When you move I light up with a glow

To Be with you is Happiness, especially because you bring me back to reality

One Move, One Name that I don't want to see Then I push you away

When I don't like what I see It bothers Me.

I sleep beside you at night, No You sleep beside me at night

In the Morning, I look at you to see if you're the same as I left you

Late at Night I sit & Talk with you for hours

Even though I press your buttons all the time everyday, you still kiss my face

How could I live with out you I would be so alone

You're the perfect black w/ a hint of blue I love you, You Samsung Rant of a phone.'

Notes: Talk about shape "I press you" or "You Kiss My Face"

__Elastic Love ♥ __

I need a vacation. To another life. Where you don't exist and my heart is made of steel. where my eyes are always dry and my cheeks are waterproof. where love is happiness, i need to get away, away from you. goodbye. for now. for I carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) Intertwined and engaged Engulfed and wrapped a captive, a slave Tangled and trapped In our Love. As of now, I'm packing my bags, everything is coming with me My anger: I'm mad because I want you My depression: I'm sad because I can't have you all to myself My temper: I'm aggravated because of what you and these females do My Joy: I'm glad because you're in my life, and I wouldn't replace you with anyone else

Why can't I let you go I can't stop thinking about you, as much as I don't want to Our hearts are Velcro our minds, bodies, and souls are three things stuck, placed together with lustful glue Your gaze leaves me speechless but your spoken word seeps into the pores of my soul giving me the strength to break silence. I manage making every moment memorable For, I’m almost gone. I think. With each attempt of escaping from you, our love is tested Can our elastic love obstruct destruction? No matter how distant I am, I always snap back into your arms. Our Rubber band love with guitars of happiness and drums of desire Stretching but never breaking No matter far or near, in the end I’ll always be there. In your heart. for I carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart)
