The Haunted... What?
Any style
Poetrymom1992 in Comedy

Shrooms

I saw the dresser move

It moved up and it moved down

I though it started to talk

I saw movement

I heard things

There was light and there was sound

I saw everything move with a cackeling voice

That came from the great beyond

The only question that came to my mind?

Was it haunted? Or was I wrong?

I saw my plate of mushrooms

It was then I knew

That the dresser was not haunted

Just my thoughts from mourning you

One Star Review
Any style
Poetrymom1992

No stars

If I had to give my marriage

Any reviews at all

It wouldn't be one star

There would be none

No star not near or far

I would warn people far and wide

To avoid feelings and bottle them so

And like the wind makes the river boat move

Drown your feelings and let me go

Let not you go astray

With your feelings or your heart

If you marry the wrong person

It can't be undone from the start

I met another fella

With whom was already wed

We both had that in common

So I drowned my feelings instead

what did you think would happen?

My facial expression says it all

I glare at you with my face fuming

Steam piling up and going out my ears

You can't do anything to soothe me

What do you think would happen?

When you yelled at me all night?

I was at your beck and call

When our budget was broke

And I lost all my might-

Still I kept on going

Though our money was almost gone

That fact that you're not working

Makes me seeth with angry

No, I'm not wrong

What do you think would happen?

When everything was gone

I wanted to be mad and I had a good reason

So I write this sad willed song

Yes I still am in love with you

Yes I still cry my tears

What did you think would happen?

When you yelled at me

I was and still am in tears

The Kiss-Ass
Any style.
Poetrymom1992
10 reads

The story

It was never supposed to be like this

I never wanted to enjoy this day

My clothes scattered everywhere

Everything by everyone on display

I did the deed and sealed the deal

Where lust lies now in time

I enjoyed every minute of it

My virtue gone before nine

Then the sun came rising up

It was summer and it got dark later

Every thought I tried to block

I ended up acting like a marriage hater

I didn't mean to start the affair

I asked my husband if it was okay

Then he said yes and cheered me on

My virtue gone by the end of the day

I don't know if I should be sorry

I know nothing about what to do

So now a kiss ass night I've had

Will transform me into ruin

I know that I can't tell my friends

For it was them that I cheated on

I gave into peer pressure and sin

Now I don't want my friends to be gone

If I tell and if I continue

I wont be able to stop

If I admit to any of this

Then my life will start to flop

I don't want anyone to think

That this is anything I actually do

I'm brighter then most may think

But it's a kiss ass tale I'll tell you

So now that I've got you all wound up

All filled with lust in bed

Try to get this story out of sight out of mind

And rest your sex filled heads

"There were a lot of gods...

The fall

I knelt before the throne

Where the almighty sat and stared

One waiting to smother me

The other with a sword above my head

I didn't know this is what it would be like

To have the gods mad at you

For someone I thought who was my friend

They spoke of the wrongs that I committed too

I slept with many husbands

The wives all hate me now

I walked naked through the towns square

Everyone laughed and then I bowed

I read some dirty stories

I acted once I read-

And I guess you all can guess what they were

The books are on the night stand by my bed

Then when I tried to go to sleep

The Gods took me in the night

Where now I stand in heaven

Trying to toughen out the night-

I pray that they don't hurt me

I would rather be a slave

Wipe the poop from all our enemies

Have sex until the end of days

So now I beg and plead

For my soul, my life, my all

Then I watch a silver light above my head

My life flashed before my fall

Prevailed

The ritual was set to produce ashes from the bones

Cleansing by the fire for a sin they need to atone-

I didn't understand what was happening

As the body rose and bled

Where once was a living person

Was burned by fire instead

I didn't ever wish to be them

I hoped that no one else ever would-

I wouldn't wish this upon anybody

and I Don't ever want to sacrifice flesh and blood

I heard the fatal cry

As she left the holy veil

From this world into another

Cleansed in fire

We then prevailed

The trouble is, you think you have time. (Buddha)

Aren’t mine

I thought I had the moment

I thought I had the time

I thought I had the words to say, but no they were lost- yes mine

I thought I had the moment

I thought I had the day

I thought I would see you take your last breath, but no time got away

I thought I had the moment

I thought I had the time

I thought that I could awake from this night mare

The one where you aren't mine

Whispers in the Nighttime
Poetry or prose

The wind

I thought I heard a whisper one day

They were voices inside my head

Don't do it! Don't do it! I heard it say

It's something that you'll always dread

I thought I heard a voice one day

I know that I heard it right-

I dreamt of what would happen next.

The voice whispered to me late last night

Don't ruin what you have now

It's forever good and true

You know that you are truly blessed-

Don't ruin what's good for you

I don't want everything to be in ruins

But no structure can stand forever still-

Just like the choice I had to make-

Do I stay miserable, or do I leave at my own free will?

It's not a choice that I would ever wish

Upon anyone alive-

Don't ruin what you are blessed with

You're family will help you thrive

You set goals that are well within your means

You'll get there soon I know it-

If you quit now-

That's it- you quit-

And no reward to show for it

You have people that love you

Don't let the mean whispers win!

I thought I heard a voice that night

Now it's drowned out by the wind.

Dum spiro spero.
While I breathe, I hope. Prose or poetry.
Poetrymom1992

On my own

While I breathe, I hope that I don't give myself away.

I no longer have the thoughts or feelings, felt from yesterday.

Yes, one day I loved you and now I had to choose.

I just didn't want to loose you-

But there was nothing else I could do

So I write my secret shame here

I exhale my every breath.

I hope that no one close can hear-

Myself beating in my chest

I was treated like a charity.

Like a project for the poor

I told you that I could pay

But all you did was ask for more

So I donated my time.

My every blood sweat and tear

My feelings aren't a crime

But that's just what I fear

I don't love someone elses husband

I just love my own

If this poem isn't enough to show that

Then I hope and breath on my own

"One day, photos won't be enough."
Poetry or prose
Poetrymom1992
21 reads

The slash

I watch as the model struts naked in the living room

Her head held high; body shown in full bloom

I won't be enough

Is what I think and how I feel

Photos wont be enough, I'm mad at him and that's real

Why does he need to flaunt everyone else around?

I don't understand why temptation brings him down

I don't believe it when you say that you don't want to do things with them

I don't believe it when you say, that you don't want to be more then friends-

So now I sit and wonder

What you think while cameras flash

Photos just wont be enough

All of them I want to slash
