Tanka Poems

Pain
darkness surrounds me
I sit alone in so much pain
no one can see me
I run the blade across my vain
I lay and pray for another day

Parents
I hear screaming once again
blaming me for nothing I have done
I want to run away
Please God make me disappear
for I don't want to be here

Sleep
I close my weak eyes
the sound of the night surrounds me
my loving God protects me
in my dream I feel no pain
for that day I hope to gain

Patrick
his face so very soft
hugs from him make my heart pound
I love him so much
I thank God for giving me him
our future will be amazing


Haiku poems

Babysitting
screaming in my ears
running around and never listening
patiently I wait

dreams
An angel stands above me
she says everything will be OK
Jesus opens the pearly gate

friends
always by my side
helping me when I need you
fun times are still ahead

birthday
happy day to me
a fun time is what I need
lets get this party started

war
time to say goodbye
I hold my baby one last time
I walk away and cry

vacation
going to New Harmonie
beautiful cabin to stay in
pretty sights are all around

engagement
pretty trails were everywhere
he knelt down on one strong knee
of coarse I said yes

Hair
I sit down really nervous
I wonder what the results look like
the mirror stands behind me
