Captain Midnight by Jennifer Cohn ([email protected])

Tell me, Captain Midnight,
How I got here -
Telling stories with you on this big black bed
and rain outside your window.

You say you can't sleep,
But I can't either -
And I wore a green dress to see if you'd smile
I brought two packs of smokes and a candy cane
Even though I don't do that stuff.
I will if you teach me how, though,
Seeing how I've reached the age of prolonged suicide.

Why won't you just sleep
Instead of trying to make me laugh
(It's working, by the way)
And that story was so stupid, sweetie.
Ooh, you're warm,
which is nice in this weather.
Maybe we should get drunk together
And go around searching for Dolores
on this hazy night,
or maybe little Josephine.

But you know, Captain Midnight,
I could be Josephine if you asked me to
I might even be Dolores
If I tried
But I can't be Paige so don't even ask.

See, I was too scared to ask for a hug
But you gave me two anyway
And it was like burning, like fire,
The heat almost killed me!
I know you didn't feel it, though,
cause you're too cool
for that.

I need to sleep, Captain Midnight,
But I can't because of you.
Blue eyes seem darker than this night
and a warm touch is colder than ice -
If you would only stop laughing,
stop singing,
I could sleep.




This is from my friend: thats him over there kissing Peter (long story)
Surface Dweller By Marcel ([email protected])
I'm tired of taking the easy way out.
I'm tired of faking what life's all about.
before you try to control me
You must quit trying to take my soul from me.
I want to be one with the world
I long to be one with myself.
The day isn't done until my life has come (and gone)
Not once did i ask for your apathetic help
Yet you lend your hand wrapped in pity
Not wanting to touch the real me
Wishing my skin were candy
So you won't be forced to see the real me
Not caring to find out what's behind the
SURFACE


Also from Marcel: the next two

i n e v inot woRth it
a b l e
all that you have to hide just sweep it under the rug
In all that you confide just lock them in a room
without a view soundproof/ no where to hide/ out in the open
and vulnerable to all-- not many things you can change
destiny's a bitch who can't be bribed so hide
hide yourself and all that seek to tell what's really
inside to whom you confide just hide/ to what you trust
just let it rust under the rug you'll be safe under a
platinum umbrella/ that is, until lightning strikesIT'S INEVITABLE

dlet me be lonely v i d
u a lall you needed me to do was be you
because I am my own manI don't follow your rules
what you hate I think is cool/ you turned ran/from me to be one of them
you're him you're him you're him you're himyou're one of themalone
conformity's not my bagI'M AN INDIVIDUAL

A Reflection By Joyce E. Dean ([email protected])
Why am I so out of breath?
Why my feet and hands so tired?
The punishment is not enough
to let me rest in quiet?
The mode of darkness consumes my way
Til many deaths move ore me
The plans are many and more there'll be
to take us swiftly onward
Cry hard and loud but they never quite hear
My love, he never doubts me
Birds fly freely, branches sway
Earth devoures her children one by
precious one
Oh, can't the one that loves me most
Give me hopeless, dreaded day?
A beginning would be for many
Wonderful, lasting rest
But for my tormented soul
My peace died and flowers grew overhead


In Love w/Love By Phillip Keeling ([email protected])

I'm in love w/Love
So in love, I write
Her name on my book.
I say her name to
All I meet, and have
Her constantly in my heart.
I'm in love w/Love
And her fever burnsMy heart, my soul
My gut, my brain.
She meets me
Wherever I go.I'm in love w/Love
And she appears
In the faces of
Those that she chooses.
Her beauty often changes
And changes me.
I'm in love w/Love
And she knows I am.
She teases me
With all of her maidens & Patrons.
I love Love becauseShe loves me too.

Far from Hope By Phillip Keeling ([email protected])

Far from Hope
Close to you.
But far from holding you,
Tasting you.
I want to be you.
I want to be with you.
Forever.
I call for you,
But the wind carries
My voice away
And whispers my words
Into your ears.
So you go to love the wind.
Horrible fate, it is
That a man borne of
Walking shoes should love one
So rooted in the ground.
I will miss you when I am gone.
And you will forget eventually
Who I was.
And that I carried any identity at all.
But when I must leave,
Steal a kiss from me
And lock it up in
A box of Hope.
And if you find yourself
Needing me again,
Just open that box,
And remember...
