Gods Garden 3 weeks ago

God looked around his garden,
and found an empty space.
He then looked down upon the earth,
and saw your tired face.
You see God knew that you where suffering,
and that you where in pain.
He knew that you would never be well on earth again.
God knew that the road you often traveled was getting rough,
and the hills where getting harder to climb.
So he ever so softly whispered in your ear…
“piece be thine”.
He then gently put his arms around you,
and lifted you to rest.
Dad on that sad but glorious day,
that god took you home.
A part of me went with you.
You see Gods Garden must be Beautiful,
For he only takes the best.
Dad you will always be loved and remembered by many,
because you touched and filled so many hearts with your love.



Heaven has a name 1 month ago

Whom ever say’s heaven does not exsist they should be put in a black abiss. With personal experiance from my hurt i have seen heaven walk on earth.

Who ever say’s heaven is white and paved with gold
they have not seen the heaven i know.

people may have to dream of seeing heavens beautiful sight.
For me i have laied beside it in the dead of night.

When i wake what do i see.
long beautiful brown hair and two gourges
brown eyes with heaven holding on to me.

People may ask me what do i mean.I tell them
that heaven has a name Tonya Hensley



Now 6 months ago

Now
At first, there were no tears.
There were no feelings.
There was nothing.
Just one emotionless teenager.
Who needed to let herself live.
Well, she did.
But there was no upsetting days.
There were no ways you could bring her down.
The last day for the seniors she was happy & cheerful.
She smiled & laughed as usual.
She was herself & her friends were the same.
They laughed & joked with her.
They showed her happiness over again.
They brought her back to herself.
Yet, the day after.
All of her emotions are hitting her.
Bringing her down.
Hitting her like a water fall, pushing her under.
The tears, they swell up inside.
Almost coming out.
Yet still in there.
She just doesn’t understand it.
It is killing her!
She can’t take it.
She just wants to burst.
Sitting here, thinking.
God!
Help me!
When they come out they won’t stop.
They will keep going until she feels she has cried her life away.
Depression, going through her mind.
Telling her to give up on everything & everyone.
Not understanding anything.
She doesn’t know how to react.
It’s tearing this poor teenager apart.
Someone, anyone.
Help, she’s gone.
Her life has vanished, right before her own eyes.
Just like her hopes & dreams.
Flowing away.
Gone, in the blink of an eye.
No one understands the way things work anymore.
Stuff just sort of happens.
One’s life is gone in 60 seconds.
One’s happiness is gone, & it may never return.
One’s actions causing everything.
Why, must all my emotions hit me now.
She gives up.
Let the tears fall.
Let her dreams die.

Leave her be.



..::I Wish::.. 7 months ago

I wish I had wings
so I could fly away,
I wish that I knew
all the right things to say.

I wish for a miracle
to happen to me,
I wish for a lifetime
of happiness and glee.

I wish for a friend
that will always be true,
I wish for a chance
to know what to do.

I wish for the pain
to all go away,
I wish for a time
when I’d know what to say.

I wish for this life
to be everything I need,
I wish for my heart
to never again bleed.

I wish that the world
will one day be clean,
I wish that some people
wouldn’t be so mean.

I wish that all kids
will one day get along,
I wish for the day
when we will all join in song.

I wish for the sun,
and the moon and the stars,
I wish that everyone could find
who they really are.

I wish that one day
there will no longer be a beast,
But most of all I wish,
for the world to have peace.



The Tragedy of Our World 8 months ago

Suicide, death
It’s all so grave
Rape and crystal meth
It’s utterly insane
Yet we smile and wave
And act just the same

We’ve grown numb to the world

Hatred, starvation
They tighten their grip
Murder and molestation
Will give us the slip
Yet, we say it’s not fair
And pretend to care

We’ve grown blind to the world

Love, innocence
The sentiment of the age
Forgiveness and deliverance
All that’s needed to assuage
Yet we turn our backs
And mock the facts

We’ve grown deaf to the world

Lust, conceit
Overwhelm our hearts
Anger and deceit
Pierce like darts
Still we watch this disaster
And keep walking faster

We are dead to the world



Living Death 8 months ago

Fragments of life passing, every second
decaying before our eyes. Emptiness begins following
minds insurrection with destruction ahead.
The lonely road we walk, no talk just the silence
covering like darkness hovering as ends the day.

The question who I am builds in, creeps in
not knowing how to pass it, we yield to the need to know.
death the cheat to the question awaits. Who am I, i ask again
Am i not the fort of who I am. Why? Why this suspense till I am
six feet under to know who I am.

I’m a mortal living in an immortal hell,
where i feel no feeling, where i see no meaning
where am i, i seek answers with no questions asked.
May this be my eternal cry, may this be my last breath i cry.



Poem 10 months ago

I wrote this one recently but ive written over 200…never tried to get them published but i might!!

I’d love to spend a day inside your mind,
you’d need to spend a year inside mine.
And maybe we could compromise and begin,
to feel and show the love that we put in.
And they said time could make it better,
but time can tear you down,
time will make it old if we dont turn the tables round.

Open your windows to the lonely winter night,
feel the stars and hail their light
and we’ll cry no more, yeah we’ll cry no more,
love is a drug that will ease our strain,
carry our souls and kill the pain
and we’ll cry no more,
itll be alright,
we’ll find redemption somewhere in the night.

I’d love to write a song that’d make you smile,
i wanna be the one in a little while.
But if u want it u can have it now,
some compromise and ill show u how,
you say your letting yourself down,
but thats not true,
deep inside you know im right,
itll always be me and you.



Beautiful Fire 10 months ago

This was my first poem. I’ve written many others but I still like this one a lot.

I’m like an ant under a stone,
A leaf under compression.
A particle in a universal wind,
A void filled with rejection.

In a hole with transparent stone walls,
Anger echoes all around me.
Your words pierce my heart,
Flaws I cannot find compassion for.

Your blunt hands are my trauma,
Your blunt words are my life.
These blunt feelings,
My disability in a social realm.

Yet I have a beautiful fire,
It longs to venture out.
Its suppression is untamed,
And a loophole in my essence,
Begs to bring onslaught upon your hostility.

Somehow I know it’s too late.



My first poem ;] 10 months ago

The snow outside is falling,
its you my heart is calling.
I feel so cold and alone,
waiting for the beep of my phone.
You broke my heart in two,
but still I can’t replace you.
And everything you said,
Just replays in my head.

You used to say forever,
and that we’d always be together.
But since you said goodbye,
it turned out to be all lies.
You broke my heart in two,
but still I can’t replace you,
and everything you said,
just replays in my head.

And now the days go so slow,
why’s this? I don’t know.
Because as I look into the past,
it seems the days used to go so fast.
You broke my heart in two,
but still I can’t replace you.
And everything you said,
just replays in my head.

Now a year on,
and finally I’m strong,
I’ve got over you,
like you wanted me to.
My heart is no longer in two,
and I’ve learnt to replace you.
And everything you said,
is no longer in my head.
