All Things Beautiful...

Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God's handwriting-a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

I couldn't find the words...

I wanted to say I'm sorry
To tell you I was wrong
But you didn't catch my drift
I couldn't find the words

I wanted to write a sunset
Forever trap the sky
But my pen isn't magic
I couldn't find the words

I wanted to sing some moonlight
Turn silver into song
But I let my moment go
I couldn't find the words

I needed to say I love you
You're a treasure in my eyes
Instead I tried to show it
I couldn't find the words...

Now you're gone, it's over
The moments have all past
I should've tried much harder
but I couldn't find the words

Madness

This is a poem I found scribbled on a desk in my highschool English classroom...:P I thought it was good so I copied it down:

The bright horizon turns dark,
My life squandered by those who wish me ill
The cries from my heart laughed into oblivion
He/she took my heart then struck me down
through all, the longing of my soul still sings
thoughts, feelings, running through my fevered brain
the insanity welling up inside a maddening to swallow
the deep menacing depths of maddness
It stares at me, the stare of death and pain
I am standing on the edge of a cliff
the darkness billows below me
I reach out for him/her, I reach out for love
He/she laughs, malicious, evil, and pushes me off the edge
I am falling, my screams lost amidst the
broiling maddness that consumes my soul
I look up and see his/her face a thing of love and evil
Smiling as I fall and fall...
