Every time I hear you voice
I know I made the right choice
Writing my fist name with your last making me you’re Mrs
Every day I can’t wait for one of your kisses
You light up my life when things get dark
Our fingers intertwined strolling around the park
If the day turns to night, I’ll love you by candlelight
When our eyes met I knew my heart was sold
Together we’re going to make a teen love story with a happy ending
Because when I’m with you my heart doesn’t need mending
Whoever said dreams don’t come true
Hasn’t seen me when I’m with you

Poem: Love Is Overrated
StandardLove is overrated
In the end it’s only your feelings that will be obliterated
My feelings are left stranded at the door
Yet I’m still left wanting more
I can’t get it into my head
That what we had began and ended in your bed
You’re turning me into a whore
Because our love is becoming a chore
I might well be poor
It was your love that I needed to make me rich
Go ahead, keep cursing my name
We both know that won’t make me your bitch
Sleeping around is how you got your fame
But somehow I got it into my head that your soul I would be able to tame
I’m working day and night
To reach a new height
Each day the bar is raised
All I’m asking for is some praise
I need a wish, I’m on my knees ready to prey
Hoping that tomorrow will be my day

Poem: Just Me And You
StandardI’ve never stopped believing in us
Forget everyone else
Just know that I believe in you
And all that you do
Apart but together
I know this will last forever
I’ll be with you
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
Just know that I’ll be there
And be aware
My heart is with you
So whatever you do
Know that it’s us against the world
Even if I’m not there
Just you and I
Forget the tears
Forget the pain
Together we’ll see it through
Just me and you
Let me know what you think.

Poem: Just Makes Us Stronger
Standard
Close in my heart
But in reality far apart
Together we’re meant to be
I know you agree
With you by my side
A feeling I never want to hide
Together is how we’re meant to be
Nothing can be left unsaid
We’ll be fine
Just make sure that you stay mine
Let’s do this together
At least then we know we’ll be forever
Let me know what you think.

Poem: Just Be Content
StandardKeep knocking at the door
You never know it may just need one more
There will always be opportunities
Being embraced with controversies
Look into the future
It’s your dreams you need to nurture
Live the moment
There’s no problem with just being content
Let me know what you think

Poem: Jailbird Love
StandardI can listen to you lie
But every time another part of me will die
And another tear I will cry
Just like a gunshot to my heart
A bullet to my brain
But by your side I still remain
I’m told I deserve better
More than a jailbird and his monthly letter
Locked away for his violence
Without him around the house is filled with a deathly silence
No crashing plates
No drug taking mates
Just me and my bruises
I know people think you’re abusive
I know people think I’m stupid
Maybe even deluded
How can you help who you fall for?
But I can’t withstand this love anymore
I am stronger than this
Not taken in by your kiss
I’ll tell it to you straight
But I’ve left it too late
Now I am the reason you’re in your cell
Accompanied to my farewell
Maybe it was just a possessive love
Now I can only be represented by a white dove
Let me know what you think.

Poem: It’s Time
StandardWatch the rainbow paint the sky
Don’t let time pass you by
Memories are created by families and friends
Forget all the arguments it’s time to make amends
Try and find a way back
It’s time to get on the right track
Never let your dreams slip away
Because tomorrow is a new day
The future is in your hands
Turn the page; it’s time to make some new plans
What do you think?

Poem: It’s A Lie That I Fear
StandardI’ll always be beside you
In whatever you go through
Our love will last
Forget the past
I’ll give my hope to you
And long for the day you do to
Say you’ll be there
Say that you care
I need to know
As you never let your feelings show
Is it me that you need?
Is it me that you long for?
Is it me that makes your heart soar?
Just tell me the truth
Even if it’s not the words I want to hear
It’s a lie that I fear
Let me know what you think

Poem: Is It Out Of Place?
StandardCan’t you see the tears running down my face?
Don’t they look out of place?
Can’t you see the bruises on my skin?
Your only sin
Can’t you see the pain in my eyes?
It shouldn’t be a surprise
Raise your hand
Turn it into a fist
Strike me hard
Day and night
Do it at your will
I can’t change it
One day you’ll see the pain in my eyes
One day you’ll see the tracks on my cheeks
One day I won’t be blue anymore
Let me know what you think?

Poem: Inspiration
StandardA hero comes along
Without a fear knowing where they belong
With every step they take
Another heart may break
But they search inside themselves
To follow the dreams the desire
Each a hero becoming an inspiration
To the whole population

Poem: I’m Not Afraid
StandardDon’t stereotype me
Please don’t tell me who I should be
In my head I know
And that’s how my personality is going to grow
I see all the problems you see
Don’t try and blame them on me
The streets have a voice
Every person has a choice
Decide what path their going to take
What laws their going to break
Nobody will force the weapon in their hand
Buts lets join together and make a stand
Guide them to the right way
It’s your turn to be a role model today
Take some responsibilities
Don’t be blaming us for all the controversies
We drive you to the brink
Day after day you see another turn to the drink
I’ll stand up for those without a voice
I’ll stand up for those without a choice
I’m proud to be different
Not like all the others up the duff you know, pregnant
I’m at college everyday
Are you getting what I’m trying to say?
I’m not like them
Most of their choices I don’t condemn
Not smoking, not ever
Have I taken drugs? No never
Don’t judge what you don’t understand
That’s why I’m making a stand and raising my stand
I’ve got a voice
And I’m making my choice
Let me know what you think.

Poem: I’m Glad We’re Through
StandardYour love is like a fire
Once it was burning and strong, built to last
Now it’s dying, dwindling in its ashes
All I want is for a way to blow the smoke away
A brand new start
Is that too much to ask for?
You send crazy thoughts through my mind
Someone I once needed so much
Turned into someone I can’t even trust
As the words tumble from your mouth
I’ve leant to let them just slip passed
I deserve more
You’ve left my heart shattered on the floor
I believed in you
But there wasn’t anything you could do
One thought in your mind,
It wasn’t love
Now all is said and done,
It’s just the memories left behind
I’m not tied to you
You’re a closed door
I’ve found someone who gives me more
And now I’m happy to say I’m glad we’re through
What do you think?

Poem: I’ll Never Be Alone
StandardI could look into your eyes all night
You captured my heart at the first sight
Your lips so soft
In you I’m lost
A love that could last forever, I don’t know
He’s a gentleman who insists on walking me home
Exchanging numbers he can’t believe I’m alone
Five years later, I have a ring on my finger
Our baby’s laugh as my ringer
We have a house to call our own
And a promise from him that I’ll never be alone
Because we have a love to last forever
As we are a couple meant to be together
What do you think?

Poem: I Pray
StandardI see where you last lay
And then I pray
If I knew what brought them to do this
But that wouldn’t change what I miss
What if I was there?
Would you still be here?
Why have you been taken from us like this?
Is it like some cruel test?
Everything passes in a haze
I’m living in a daze
All I can see is where you last lay
And then I wish
I was with you on your last day
You’ve gone and won’t be coming back
All I ask for,
Is one more day.
God, please reunite is someway
What do you think?

Poem: I Can Always Live With The Memories
StandardWe are done
But let’s not be forgetting
All the memories
And the making of the melodies
We’ve had our fair share of
Arguments, fighting and fussing
You take a step forward
But I’m quite happy staying back here in the past
I might be blind
But baby understand
I’m willing to let you go
If you let me stay here
With all of our memories
I might sit up all night
But it’s not the daily fights that stay on my mind
Remember how we used to be
But I guess the world just got in the way
Every day you had to work really late
Each night I was willing to wait
Don’t tell me you were just chillin’ with your mates
See where we end
It’s just like where we began
Remember the days when I made your world go round
It’s hard to watch you go
But I can always live with the memories
What do you think?

Poem: Homeless
Standard
Cold and lonely
I know for sure he won’t be the only
No bed or food
Is it a wonder he’s in such a bad mood
Passersby narrowing their eyes
No words pass their lips, not a hello or goodbye
Rejected by society
Not trusted with any responsibility
Neglected and alone
Without a shelter to call home
Roaming the street
Trying to survive in the extreme heat
With one companion, man’s best friend
Just to live, every law he has to bend
Written one like this before… what do you think?
- Esjae x
Poem: Guiding Me
StandardTake me in your arms
Away from all harm
Pull me into your chest
This is my only request
When I’m down
You always find a way to be around
You whisper words of reassurance
It’s becoming a common occurrence
Your words pull me through
All the time so true
I long for the day I’m there for you
And all you go through
As always let me know what you think!
- Esjae x
Poem: Helping You
StandardWhen things happen to you
There’s so much more I wish I could do
You and me will battle through
Especially now, so much has been taken from you
The support we get
I’ll never forget
Especially all of the upset
But there’s still time yet
For us to forget
All of this pain and upset
The things that happen to you
I know we’ll muddle through
Together we’ll change this trouble
To something so much more cheerful
This was written a couple of years ago when there was a lot going on in my family and I wanted to help but didn’t know how to.

Poem: Footprints On Your Heart
StandardMaking footprints on your heart
Is just like walking on untouched snow
Taking baby steps, until we can watch our love grow
You’ll always be more than and nothing less
Than I could have asked for
The blue sky surrounds me
Since the day that you found me
Look into your heart
And that’s where I’ll always be
Just let your love reach me
What do you think?

Poem: Every Piece Of My Heart
StandardStars are falling
Everyday my heart is calling,
I know I acted dumb
And now my heart is numb
I’m trying to figure out a way
To make you understand that,
I don’t want you to go astray
I can’t take another day
Without you knowing
Every piece of my heart is on the ground
Waiting for them to be found
Let me know what you think please.
- Esjae x
Poem: Each And Everyday
Standard
Each day I see the rain
And I’m reminded of your pain
Every day you told me you couldn’t cope
And I told you we would work it out
Every day you said of all you’re hurt
And I said one day it would end
Each day I visit you
And tell you about my day
Each day I think of what you never had
And I wish you were able to cope
Every day I visit your graveside
And I say the words only I know how to say
Every day I say this for you
And I know one day we’ll be together
Every day I ask you to wait
And I think about your fate
Let me know what you think.
- Esjae x
Poem: Don’t Forgive And Forget Anymore
StandardI wish you could see
That what is happening to you isn’t right
Each time you forgive and forget
I live with regret
You are worth so much more
One day you will open your closed eyes
And the haze will rise
You will see what we know
Then you will realise
You are worth so much more
What do you think?

Poem: Directed By Our Dreams
StandardThere’s you and me
We all strive to be the best that we can be
Different but so similar
We all want to be loved
We all need to be needed
Full of ambition
Directed by our dreams
You can’t change who you are
It’s time to raise the bar
It’s time to succeed
And exceed all expectation
Without confrontation and contemplation
Fulfil your dreams
To every possible extreme
Let me know what you think.

Poem: Crying For Help
StandardThe streets are littered with so many teenage pregnancies
Along with many other dangers and obscenities
Knives and guns carried for pride
Cars not owned, just used while on a joyride
Lives filled with drama
Police head to foot in armour
The people you hang with is a statement
Flowers and crying eyes a constant reminder of the bereavement
Pouring into the street day after day
A society crying for help
Instead sent into a shock everyday
As another town is on its own
Let me know what you think!
- Esjae x
Poem: Changing Times
StandardChocolate, sweets and treats
Falling from the sky
The sound of children’s laughter
Right into the distance
This is how it used to be
Guns, knives and violence
From the hands of teenagers
The sound of victims screams
Right into the distance
This is what it’s turning to be
The time is changing
The sound is changing
The lives are ending

Poem: As Good As Ours
Standard
Everybody is looking for love
Their guardian angel sent from above
Someone to whisper their name in the dark
Longing to feel ‘that’ spark
Heart skipping a beat
Every time their eyes meet
Laying under the stars
One thing we know,
Their love will never be as good as ours
- Esjae
