| FLAWED Writing by Kali Jones |
|
| POEMS The Break Up/My Ex was an international poetry contest semi-finalist and published in "Eternal Portraits" and some poetry book in the U.K.. This has also been made into a song. You Told Me So: This poem was a great release for me. It got a lot of things off my back=). Clouded: This poem was about someone who has so much to offer, so much talent, and so much intelligence, but he let drugs get in the way. There Is A Stranger Haunting Me: Did you ever think that you knew somebody better than you know yourself and then you find out you really never knew that person at all and you can't stop thinking about it? Well, obviously I did. Boiling Point: I wrote this poem during a hard time in my life. Everytime I would try to talk to people about it they would tell me that it's ok and getting over it is so easy if I just accept it and move on. The same people telling me this were the ones that aren't doing anything with their lives and lost sight of the dreams they once had because they came to the conclusion that life sucks. I guess I just got really tired of hearing that. I Hurt To Know: This is about wanting someone to look at you and find the same passion and beauty that you see in them. You Taught Me How To Feel: You never really know what pain is until you can overcome it and learn from it. It makes a person human to be able to feel and hurt and I appreciate that someone could teach me that and make me a stronger and wiser person because of it. Be thankful that your life isn't all sunshine. Sunshine is shallow in that it can only reach certain places when so much of the world is shaded and you have to seek depth to have a full experience. A Cold Future: Some people just give up caring for anything but themselves. They become close-minded and fake. All the lies, deception, and betrayal are becoming a disease that corrupts everyone and brings on hate that eventually turns people completely numb. |
THE BREAK UP/MY EX
I HURT TO KNOW I hurt to know Fallen to one knee I secretly whisper for a truth to prayer and proof of granted desires It doesn't hurt to hope for one sincere kiss meant only for me But it hurts to not receive and be left to wonder what if A chance for one moment in his eyes For one pleasant thought in his head For one cause for one smile I hurt to know what if And if--then when If when--then will Will I be presented with another chance for hope To hurt to know again You Taught Me To Feel
A Cold Future Passion drained All dreams contained Love is lostTrust will cost Hope expired Pain admired Blood turned blue The cold condemned you A tear will grant you one more year A smile every 1,000th mile What is the word coming to? Cover yourself or suffer the flu |

STANDARDS To be the one that you adored, that you adored (chorus) MORE THAN JUST A LOOK Underneath is dark long hair are virgin eyes of pure poetry I catch a glimpse And I love the way they look at me with curiosity A desire to know and understand Eyes of compassion that lend out a hand
(Chorus) (2x) (Repeat Verse 1) MY GOODBYE I could taste the herbs on your lips And I would trace the calluses on your fingertips Stare into the smoke glazed over your green eyes You were my favorite, my sadest goodbye My parents didn’t like you My friends weren’t impressed You were a skater And an artist at best Strong feelings on politics and you love to get high You were my favorite, my sadest goodbye Chours- So Goodbye, MY goodbye(4x) We would waste away the day flipping channels in the dark We would laugh and we would fight, sleep into the afternoon sunlight And you knew exactly what to say to make me cry You were my favorite, my sadest goodbye Chorus PERFUME AND CIGARETTES (part 1 of 2) (intro) Monday morning comes and she’s off to class Fights her eyelids while the books kick her ass She’s daydreaming She’s not listening (verse1) She’s a waitress in a bar working till 2am In a mini skirt and a tight shirt she’s got drunk old men Walking on broken glass, the guys are grabbing her ass But she just smiles and laughs, she just smiles and laughs (Chorus) Can’t wait till she is home Where it’s silent and she’s alone Candles burning, thoughts are turning She’ll get what she gets A life beyond perfume and cigarettes (verse2) The second, the second hand smoke The image is a joke The beer stains The headache remains And every night another cheesy line “How much money to make you mine?” “I’ll take you to Vegas” “I’ll make you famous” (Chorus) (soft-repeat verse 2 part one) (Chorus) MINI SKIRTS AND TENNIS SHOES (part 2 of 2) (verse 1) This might just be her favorite place To get away Where she can dream and just let go Of everything (Bridge) Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Don’t have to think cuz it’s too loud Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Sweat and bruises when she looks around (Chorus) Mini skirts and tennis shoes And Faux Hawks and color tattoos (4x) She says this is home Tonight In the concert spotlight (verse 2) She wanted to fit in, she tried so hard But she didn’t look the part No piercings, short dark hair Or body art But her heart is pounding to the beat It’s in her blood singing freely Her hair whipping thru the air Her lyrics write don’t judge me (she says) Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Don’t have to think cuz its too loud Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Sweat and bruises when she looks around (Chorus) Mini skirts and tennis shoes And faux hawks and color tattoos (4x) She says this is home Tonight In the concert twilight (verse 1 repeated) This might just be her favorite place To get away Where she can dream and just let go Of everything (she says) Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Don’t have to think cuz its too loud Maybe it’s the lights Maybe it’s the crowd Sweat and bruises when she looks around (Chorus 4x) She says this is home Tonight In this concert spotlight She says this is home Tonight In this concert twilight She is home
