Glenda's Poems

[girlfriends actually]

Hi everyone!! My name is Glenda. I’ve been reading all the beautiful poems that some of u kittens have written. So I decided to show u all some of my poems. Please be gentle.





The Edge



Like chocolate that tastes to rich and sweet

you enter my senses, attacking my system

I want to be with you, but I just cant

take the overload of pleasure and preassure

building and building… until finally I explode

in exstasy and collapse in your arms

where you kiss me tenderly and tell me

everything is going to be all right.

[SJ]

[girlfriends actually]

Thank you SJ, Yvonne, Dee, and Sam and everyone else who liked my poem. This one is a little differnt but I hope you like it.



A word of explanation about this poem. When my x gf broke up with me several months ago. I was left feeling angry and hurt. This poem is what came out of that. I’m still feeling a little vulnerable and bitter towards love. I thought she was the one and she just broke my heart.



The Fool



Feeling like a fool

heart broken

ego bruised

anger flashing

how can you be so cold and callused

to not even consider

what your doing to me

not a word of apology

not a kiss of regret

just nothing.

how i envy her

and how i hate you

but i dont really hate you.

I just try so hard to hate you

but it doesnt work

i feel so weak and powerless

youve done a number on me

and made me feel like a fool

[SJ]

Powerful words,great poem

[RaiStarr]

nice work





Rai

Forgive me now! Tomorrow I may no longer feel guilty...

[girlfriends actually]

Thank you SJ and Rai for your words. Here is another poem. I’m trying to get all of my negative poems out of the way first. I promise I have some better ones that I’ll get to soon.



Hatred



Starting out as a pebble, hatred grows in the heart little by little,

slowly eating away at everything sacred, everything healthy, everything good.

Unnoticed at first, the pebble is just a small discomfort

that hardens as the shell is polished.

Waiting quietly, cynically in the recesses of the heart

to collect deposits of malice and abuse

to grow stronger and harder until it becomes so large

that it consumes everything you love and value.

[onyxsundrops]

Didn't get a chance to comment on 'The Fool' but I really enjoyed that one as much as 'Hatred'. Really great work.



Yvonne

[SJ]

Thank you Yvonne, SJ, and Dee for taking the time to read my poems and leaving me such nice feedback This next poem is still kind of a downer, but I hope you like it anyway. Enjoy!



The Roller Coaster



In the throws of depression, I feel all alone. Like time has stopped for me, but the world keeps moving along… without me. I want to get off this roller coaster, but I can’t seem to. Tossing to and fro like the raging sea. I’m tired of this life. I want to be free. I’m tired of these mood swings. I’m tired of my life. I’m tired of you playing games with my heart. Falling, falling… further and further until I can’t get up. I can’t get out. I can’t turn around. I just want to fall back into your arms, but then I remember… your with her now. I keep hoping that I’ll wake up from this nightmare. That my life will start over. Sometimes I wish I had never met you. Nobody is worth this much pain.

[SJ]

Like that poem,great writing

[sam darls]

These past few were amazing..really emotional . Love sam xx

Dee - you are really sweet. Thanks.



krazy - thank you for reading my poems. I’m glad you like them but surely they dont compare to yours.



Okay now here is my latest poem. I hope you like it.



The Sultry Sparrow



In the early morning hours

I can hear the sultry sparrow

singing her song of love



my eyes have not seen beauty

nor my ears heard such rapture

as the sparrow in her delight



my thoughts drift slowly from the present

to a time not so distance

when you sang beautiful love songs to me



but now that time is come and over

ripped from my heart forever

as you strain to reach the notes of another



and so I sit here all alone

waiting by my telephone

for a call that will never come.

Genuine Molded Plastic



Long black and sleek

My eyes stay transfixed

On the unnatural sheen

Of your outer defence.

And just as I’m wondering

How to break open your shell

To get to the moist, gooey center

The phone rings.

Great poetry

[LunaMuses]

poems after a breakup were rather theraputic for me too. I like your stuff, espically the creative analogies you draw. glad to hear that writing them helps you deal

things will get better ^^

The Cheese Stands Alone...

[girlfriends actually]

Thank you Dee and SJ.



tk and LM its nice to know their are people who understand what I’m going through and have been though the same things. My breakup was real hard but i'm starting to do better. tk im me. I’d love to chat with u. Just look in my profile.



Okay I can’t take full credit for this next poem. I colaberated with another kitten who wishes to remain anonymus in writing it. Let me know what u think.



A Second Glance



That dream you had all those months ago

The one you thought was about her

Well, that was really me, don’t ya know.



I had the same vision.

We are connected in ways

You cannot even imagine.



That empty feeling you get inside

That you try to fill with her.

Did you ever wonder why

You never feel complete? You need me.



Sweet nothings you whispered in her ear.

On cold winter nights

Did you think I didn’t hear?



The one you have been searching for all this time

Is right before your eyes.

Are you too stubborn and blind?



I’m the one you’re looking for. I’m the one you need.

The only one who can heal your pain.

So stop looking right through me.



I’m not asking for all that much.

Just take another glance.

Give us a chance.

[onyxsundrops]

Really wonderful poem. Thanks.



Yvonne

[girlfriends actually]

Hey Yvonne thank you for the feedback.



Today I ran into my x gf and alot of pain resurfaced. So tonight I wrote this poem. And I really do feel a little better just getting this off my chest.



Darkness Reins



I’m walking through the shadows of darkness tonight.

Stumbling over the ruins of my shattered heart as it pumps anger,

thick and heavy, coursing through my blackened veins.

I hear the melancholic cry of the owl in his predatory moan.

The way you made me feel so all alone on the night that you left me,

I cried until dawn. But now all I feel is tired and numb.
