A large number of my poems from the 20th Cent till today. Enjoy my emotional release. |
Why must I watch this beauty from afar? I wonder can she heal the scar Upon my weary heart Could healing she start But alas you belong to another man So admiration is my plan. I'll adore you from a distance. That way I get no resistance. Your face is a beauty with no equal To bad for true love there is no sequel. Your hair was spun by angel's fingers. Your voice is wished for by all singers Soulful giant eyes, When I lose myself in them all I hear are sighs So this poem is the closest I'll get And NEVER you'll read this, I'd bet. By ERIC Z FOX When is it that you stop the battle? Is it when you hear the ghostly rattle? Perhaps it's when hope is lost And the price does cost Greater than your heart can give And you know it's not worth it to live Yet I am no coward But my heart feels devoured So will someone please tell me what must be done? Because fighting is no longer fun I can scream and cry And eternally I can try But will this ever be resolved Will my case ever be solved? Will I ever save the one I love from purgatory? Will I get a happy ending to my story? Will promises ever be fulfilled? Or is the unhappiness what God has willed For me to fight may way through Is the thought of heaven that untrue? By Eric Z Fox 03/21/08 The Vampire Lestat The moon is above me bright and full I'm a hunter with body and soul as my tool With immeasurable senses I stalk upon this city Look for evil doers and people without pity. Because those are the hearts upon I feast. Every morning I hardly fear the east. Cuz it will take more than the power of the sun. Cuz Saint Lestat Is having to much fun. Fighting monsters, and easing suffering these I do. And the Catholic edict I hold true. And once in awhile I do give the dark gift. But to stop me you better be swift Cuz I can cloud your mind. and you'll think your desires you'll find but it will only be my dark embrace Cuz I am the brat prince of my entire race. By Eric Z Fox The City Of Sorrows It is a dank and awful place Not held by any one race It has us all in a melting pot Just ready for the right spot A situation to light the fire To start off the bombs higher But this land that time forgot is the feeding grounds for the juggernaut It is a world that God misplaced Or sent here all the waste Because here it is horror And the hour never reaches half past quarter Yes the days go by but time does not It is the land of the Devils rot So this city of useless tomorrows Is the famous city of sorrows.

My words It is something special to find her Something that is the all cure It heals old wounds and opens new doors It is something I would always want by scores It is something that fuels all my words And I know its something you've heard Still though I'll say it again You are my stain, the goodness Of my heart is due to your bliss So you I'll never want to miss And this you should take in stride I still wish some day you'll be my bride! By Eric Z Fox My Dilemma What makes a man a good dad? Is it that when she's in trouble he is sad? Perhaps it's that he chooses to be in her life Even though her mother is not his wife But what if that puts her in danger Because she's around a person worse than a stranger And what should her father do To prove he loves her true It doesn't help to be in constant mourning And that his eyes keep pouring But he has exhausted every resource Could anyone help him set his course? Well if it's giving her everything he never had Then perhaps money is more important than a dad Because this dad believes in morals But that doesn't help his quarrels And the fact this his child might be lost So evil has a cost But this dad can't bring himself to break the law So he hopes this visit won't be the last he saw Of his poor little daughter Because that will bring his heart to slaughter So in his heart he'll hold to hope That her mom will not bring her around dope! By Eric Z Fox Justice There is something I once heard But today it sounds absurd Even though it's only a two syllable word I thought there were laws to protect People and things from harm and neglect But I think this system has broken down Well perhaps it's because we are slightly brown Or maybe it's because I am a man But that's ok cuz I have a plan And it's such a doozy Because the mother is an evil floozie Who's taught her kids to fear cops And that drug dealing pops So hopefully the world will see How bad certain mom's can be And even though my reproduction tool- Is exterior- I am no fool. Nor am I inferior. By Eric Z Fox IMMORTAL LOVE FOR EONS PAST- AND TIME SO VAST I LOVE YOU UNCONDITIONALY AND THOUGH WE AREN'T TRADITANALY HUSBAND AND WIFE WE WILL ETERNALY HELP MAN THROUGH ITS STRIFF FOR WE ARE KINDRED CREATURES- UNDYING TEACHERS AND YES OUR KISSES PINCH WE NEVER TAKE MORE THEN An INCH JUST ENOUGH TO QUENCH OUR THIRST AND WATCH MAN WHOS CURSED BY THINGS MUCH WORSE THEN US AND WE DON'T PUT UP MUCH FUSS UNLESS U TRY TO KEEP US CORNERED. TRAPPED! THEN OUR FANGS PROCEED BLOOD STRAPPED CLAWS BIGHTING SLASHING ALL THESE YOU'LL GET TRY ME LETS BET Eric Z Fox 4/25/07 The ending falls out huh? I am Immortal Do I know from the things I smell? Or should I know cuz it truly is hell Is it because this hunger I feel It's because this things kiss did seal A bargain from the depths of the pit And this evil just won't quit She made me drink upon her soul After one taste I had no control It was the sweet nectar of God's fruit And I loved this thing to boot And her kiss pulled gently upon my heart And that's all it took for this evil to start So unless I will step into the fire I will forever be a weary vampire. By Eric Z Fox 4/25/07 For most people does the good out way the bad Maybe that's why I am so sad Because I am unworthy of happiness So I'll wish for a God bless To get me through the trying times And really only love is my crime Because I've felt it to strong Or held on too long But a father to daughters bond is eternal Well that's the definition of fraternal But sometimes the darkness is so alone And my hearts beats to a dreary tone From my friends I lost To true love that turned to frost But for my daughter I have to fight And push back a horrid night But sometimes I wished someone could carry me And help me live happily But that's for dads to do Because my daughter I love you BY Eric Z Fox Father Hood Being a dad is not a part time thing Or some weekend fling It's vigilance on going And we are supposed to be showing How a functional adult acts And to teach young minds the facts That life is a beautiful experience And that friendship is held with diligence That we love those whom are deserving And forget them who are unnerving To respect thy self and all And that someday they will grow tall Teaching how to read & write How to walk & talk and facing the world with might But most important are kisses & hugs And night time snuggs Into beds of warmth and love So I guess Father Hood fits me like a glove. By Eric Z Fox 04/14/08 "Beware the Ides of March," isn't that what the Etruscan said? About the day Julies Caesar bled Could that be the day liberty died? And the day that justice cried? Or could it have been simply balance With the equality of malice Two wrongs don't make it right But it does make it an even fight Do I know what justice is? Do you know what you did? Who is worse Brutus cuz he was first? Or Augustus because democracy he made burst? So if in these words you see my truth and implication Help me in saving justice from starvation. By Eric Z Fox Avatar So I sit here thinking of thee. And how we could live happily. How you are a beauty that should be worshiped. And to ETERNITY you should be UPED. A Goddess of true divinity. That's what you happen to be. On my knees I'd pray to you. Just to hear you say, "Me too." But alas I'll worship you from afar And forever I'll be your avatar. Your prince of protection and love. In thy name ill release two dove. Representing both you and I. Within those feelings I could never die. Immortal Goddess that you are, Please allow me to be your avatar. By any name you chose for me I'll respond Because of you I am fond. Of the Simpler things in life, And anything I'd do for you to be my wife. So to ancient elder God's I'd pray. For your hand in mine to stay. And a kiss from your lips I'd steal. Because I know then my heart would heal. But even two words to you I can not utter I think it's because I know I'll stutter. So again I'll watch you from a shade. Because cowardice must be my trade. By Eric Z Fox Amanda I sit here trying to write words A simple poem no one has ever heard But no amount of rhyme And no amount of time Could ever do her justice true But she I've always knew From the day that she was born I have always sworn That I would be her protector From our parents home to the grown sector And when we were young we played a game And God gave for her the perfect name Cuz in her life I will never miss Because she is my lil sis By Eric Z Fox • The poetry of ????? Eternity For thousands of years it was only you Yes, as Egyptian slaves my heart was true And as Romans we danced through ancient wonders In Iceland we worshiped Thor god of thunder For you countless times I've died And for me I know countless times you've cried Yet, still I fight to go on Because I know you'll never be gone So once again in purgatory I wait For three sisters to decide my fate Just like three times before When I gave my life so you'd have more Several times I gave my Gods for you Just to hear you say you love me too Yet now we live apart And I wish for a start Truly though I know it will come Because eternity has just begun. Last night I dreamed of watching the sunset with you Together we watched the disappearing color of blue Then you placed your hands inside of mine And I lost track of all time Slowly bright stars came to life And from my heart I lost all strife The bright moon caused your dark hair to gleam Then I knew for my broken heart you were the seam Leisurely you looked into my eyes and held my heart in your arms And you, I knew were heavens charms But alas you belong to another Fortunately it's not my brother And so for your love I've decided to fight Yet now I'll enjoy this heavenly starlight. I can't love you any more I can't love you any more. Because you already shoved me through a door I have to let you go My resolve I do have to show I must not imagine how much of you I do adore Because then I know you'll make me soar Into a place it's already been A place that's hard to mend But that is what I must deplore Because I can't love you anymore Yet this I know and this a try and show But you feel the same even if you're hiding in a game From your touch and eyes I can see That I make you sing happily But you probably won't change And my life you'll want to rearrange So I can't love you any more Because you are a whore! Gwen Who can you trust more than I? When surely you know for you I'd die When I would take your burdens upon my shoulder And for your candle I'd be the holder Into your arms is where I wish to be But you think this is absurdity. So with my heart you'd rather play When all I want is for you to stay. Maybe I'm that ugly or awful Or perhaps just pitiful Do you still think I am unworthy? Well I guess that is surely Than tell me what to do And I'll do it times two But this must be done So than just stop having fun Or say goodbye! Jackie/Gwen Were you once called by another name? Because I know you have already played this game For countless centuries you've conquered the strong And you've played a repeating song That! Is how I know you It, is what has shown me true That you are a demoness of several guises And your face is on temple rises Is the fall of Rome upon your head? Is that why evil will never be dead? Because for all time you'll give it birth You are the source of all evil mirth So are you the bringer of all that is leery? Are you the ancient Nefateri? Then why can I not be Pharaoh? Why can the God king not be me? So I could send your heart away unhappily To wonder the endless dessert sands And be broken by a slave masters hands Even if he is deliverance I will destroy him for six pence Even if it is hell that is my destiny Than still I will search for my eternity That demoness who bites me still I will always cherish with all my will So to any god I would pray If it makes my love stay. Two Wrongs or right I know I committed the worst atrocity But why do you have so much hostility All I've done is love you to long and much Thought it's your fault cuz your touch I know you think I'm unworthy But how could you think I'm undeserving My devotion to you has never swayed And how dearly I wish you had stayed But to another man you went So know I'll never be heaven sent Though you too were wrong To push me away when we made our own song So though you love me will still fight Do you think two wrongs make a right? Do you know how hard it was to allow my heart to grow? Do you know how hard it was to let your heart go? And do you believe, that my soul grieves? Do I have faith in a being that is all seeing? Omnipotence The word is quite fancy When I looked into your eyes I saw heavenly skies But you pushed me away, And did you think I would just stay That I would want you any day. There was once a time When I would give all that is mine Unfortunately things were changed And there is nothing that I can do Well 'maybe' I Love You But I bet neither of us would say it out loud Because we are both to proud. But I know its true, Why don't you??? Gwen It's not that I fear straying eyes It's that I fear love dies And I will keep it alive no mater the cost I don't believe ours could be lost My soul shimmers just when I think your name Please don't let this be a game I would hold you even if it weren't needed To God I've already pleaded I'd listen even when you're mad And give you space when you are sad I've broken your wall before So, please, open up that door And let me in, my dearest, Dearest Gwen If the Phoenix rose from ashes gone And exists to times beyond. Can a past love be regained? Can a broken heart be tamed? For several years past my love was away And a tear I dropped for every day Every night I have dreamed, that you were in my arms But every morning you were gone..So I screamed Soon time went bye And still I would cry Then one night you were alone But I was unable to match your tone So I watched from a far And to God I asked for an avatar But I was still alone So this is my testament To a time when I could repent So if you at least read these words Than at least you would have heard. You lied and tricked and fooled me Why would that be? I loved you truly with all my heart Almost from the very start. Oh how I miss you, my dearest, dearest, Gwen. How easy it is for me to think back to a time when I thought that you cared And my heart with you I shared. Without your voice ringing in my ears My heart is streaked with horrific tears Oh, how much I do long for you But you lied, so I guess it's through. Yet still I love you. That is something I hope You already knew. |
