Poet Introduction
<~~~~Does not play well with idiots......
No Feeling
Sitting back watching
As life passes by
Numb to all feeling
Just not sure why
Wanting a life
Preoccupied by death
Never sure where I will end up
From one day to the next
My life has no meaning
My heart has no heat
A soulless being just floating by
Never noticed on the street
Sometimes I wish
I knew how to cry
Maybe then I would be human
And feel before I die
As life passes by
Numb to all feeling
Just not sure why
Wanting a life
Preoccupied by death
Never sure where I will end up
From one day to the next
My life has no meaning
My heart has no heat
A soulless being just floating by
Never noticed on the street
Sometimes I wish
I knew how to cry
Maybe then I would be human
And feel before I die

These Scars
These scars on my arms
That turn you away
They mean nothing to you
But to me they mean a lot
Each one tells a story
Each has its own tale
Each one is about a battle
That within me I have fought
They prove Im a survivor
They prove I can overcome
They show me I have courage
To get through what, in life, Im brought
That turn you away
They mean nothing to you
But to me they mean a lot
Each one tells a story
Each has its own tale
Each one is about a battle
That within me I have fought
They prove Im a survivor
They prove I can overcome
They show me I have courage
To get through what, in life, Im brought

Ivy Rayne
I have never seen someone as lovely as you
Vibrant and beautiful in every way
Your are our heart and soul; we love you more every day
Raining love from us to you
Always smiling; you take our breath away
You are our heart and soul; we love you more every day
Never alone will you ever be
Every day we will hold you close; you will see
Vibrant and beautiful in every way
Your are our heart and soul; we love you more every day
Raining love from us to you
Always smiling; you take our breath away
You are our heart and soul; we love you more every day
Never alone will you ever be
Every day we will hold you close; you will see

Wedding Anniversary
To You I gave
Myself for life
On this day
I became your wife
I walked down the aisle
And took hold of your hand
I promised you love
With our wedding band
We kissed our first kiss
And my dreams came true
And after 40 years
It is still me and you
To you my wife
I gave my love
You are my angel
Sent from above
As you walked down the aisle
I thought how could this be
How did I get so lucky
That you are walking to me
We kissed our first kiss
Amd my dreams came true
And after 40...
Myself for life
On this day
I became your wife
I walked down the aisle
And took hold of your hand
I promised you love
With our wedding band
We kissed our first kiss
And my dreams came true
And after 40 years
It is still me and you
To you my wife
I gave my love
You are my angel
Sent from above
As you walked down the aisle
I thought how could this be
How did I get so lucky
That you are walking to me
We kissed our first kiss
Amd my dreams came true
And after 40...

Ivy's Morning Song
Open your eyes
You sleepy head
Its morning time
Get out of bed
The sun is shining
Through the window frame
The birds are chirping
Singing your name
Wake up Ivy
Now rub your eyes
Stretch your arms
Time to arise
Come lets wake
My little one
Time to go outside
And have some fun
You sleepy head
Its morning time
Get out of bed
The sun is shining
Through the window frame
The birds are chirping
Singing your name
Wake up Ivy
Now rub your eyes
Stretch your arms
Time to arise
Come lets wake
My little one
Time to go outside
And have some fun

Before You
My life before you was empty
No reason for it at all
No reason for my being
No matter if I were to fall
You picked me up and carried me
Into your world of light
And ever since that day
I have seen a brand new sight
A sight of love and happiness
One of peace and glee
A sight of hope and freedom
And you gave that sight to me
I can’t begin to thank you
For all that you have done
And I really need to tell you
For me you’re the only one
No reason for it at all
No reason for my being
No matter if I were to fall
You picked me up and carried me
Into your world of light
And ever since that day
I have seen a brand new sight
A sight of love and happiness
One of peace and glee
A sight of hope and freedom
And you gave that sight to me
I can’t begin to thank you
For all that you have done
And I really need to tell you
For me you’re the only one

Why
It’s not about pain
It’s not about hurt
It’s not about life or death
It’s about feeling mortal
Knowing that at any moment I can choose to leave this hell
where I am not meant to be forever
All the while knowing that I am strong enough to survive
everything in my path
It’s about winning each battle one at a time but leaving a
“mark” to tell its story
Some use art
Some write
Some tattoo
I cut…
I cut to live
I cut to survive
I cut to tell my story
Each scar tells a story
A story of a battle...
It’s not about hurt
It’s not about life or death
It’s about feeling mortal
Knowing that at any moment I can choose to leave this hell
where I am not meant to be forever
All the while knowing that I am strong enough to survive
everything in my path
It’s about winning each battle one at a time but leaving a
“mark” to tell its story
Some use art
Some write
Some tattoo
I cut…
I cut to live
I cut to survive
I cut to tell my story
Each scar tells a story
A story of a battle...

You Will Never Know
There once was a time
When all I could see
Was a beautiful vision
Of you beside me
Something then changed
In the blink of an eye
Now that is gone
And I still don’t know why
I sit here and wonder
What could have been
The thoughts make me cry
Again and again
The build up of pain
With no end in sight
The sadness that haunts me
In the dead of the night
I lost your love
And just don’t know why
Letting go of you is impossible
So I wont even try
The time is here
For me to go
Just what you...
When all I could see

Losing You
I don’t know how to live
Without you by my side
It feels like since you left
A part of me has died
I cannot take much more of this
And don’t know what to do
Since every waking moment
I sit and dream of you
How do I win you back
How do I win your heart
The constant pain of losing you
Is tearing me apart
Without you by my side
It feels like since you left
A part of me has died
I cannot take much more of this
And don’t know what to do
Since every waking moment
I sit and dream of you
How do I win you back
How do I win your heart
The constant pain of losing you
Is tearing me apart

All I Wanted
I wanted you as my lover
I wanted you as my friend
I wanted you forever
I never wanted us to end
I wanted you in my arms
I wanted to hold you tight
I wanted you to love me
I didn’t want to fight
I wanted your lips to kiss me
I wanted to feel your touch
I wanted you to believe in me
I didn’t ask for much
I wanted you by my side
I wanted to see this through
And now I feel so stupid
Because I can’t stop loving you
I wanted you as my friend
I wanted you forever
I never wanted us to end
I wanted you in my arms
I wanted to hold you tight
I wanted you to love me
I didn’t want to fight
I wanted your lips to kiss me
I wanted to feel your touch
I wanted you to believe in me
I didn’t ask for much
I wanted you by my side
I wanted to see this through
And now I feel so stupid
Because I can’t stop loving you

Alone
No matter who there is around me
I will always be alone
No one understands me
Or the thoughts that I have known
I live a life of sadness
Full of eternal pain
Im forever stuck in madness
My life is just inane
My thoughts go round in circles
So Im in a constant spin
Thoughts of death surround me
And eventually they'll win
I can find no reason for being
This truth is bottled up inside
I do not belong, I cannot fit in
And my heart has long since died
I no longer feel
It is this life that I...
I will always be alone
No one understands me
Or the thoughts that I have known
I live a life of sadness
Full of eternal pain
Im forever stuck in madness
My life is just inane
My thoughts go round in circles
So Im in a constant spin
Thoughts of death surround me
And eventually they'll win
I can find no reason for being
This truth is bottled up inside
I do not belong, I cannot fit in
And my heart has long since died
I no longer feel
It is this life that I...

Here
Look and you will find me
Within the shadows on the wall
Try and you will feel me
Catch you each time you fall
Listen and you'll hear me
In each bird who sings
Reach and you will touch me
In all your favorite things
I am no longer by your side
But know one thing is true
Never will I be truly gone
I always watch over you
When I look, I see you
In every smile on every face
When I'm alone I feel you
Your comforting embrace
I listen and I hear you
Your voice is all around
I...
