Hey Fabulous Idea College Prep Poets!
When you post your poems you need to include the author, source (where you found your poem), and the type of poetry. Don't forget to check the criteria we copied and discussed in class Tuesday and Wednesday BEFORE you write the type of poem. Also, review your SAT Plan and make sure that each poem is related in some way. You can tie them all together using similar subjects, themes, time frames, cultures, or regions; like we discussed in class. Refer back to your MYP Unit Plan - SAT Intructions if you have questions about the anthology project and what you need to include.
If you have already posted your lyrics and ballads, then post your free verse and epitaph poetry. Any and all poems submitted can be written by you. I've enjoyed the free verse poems and epitaphs you wrote and submitted last week and look forward to reading more of your original work.
Your next post is due Tuesday, January 30. Check out each other's poetry and don't forget to post your poems on your own blog as well so your classmates and friends can post comments.

The Rose That Grew From Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else ever cared.
by Tupac Shakur

AND 2MORROW
Today is filled with anger
fueled with hidden hate
scared of being outcast
afraid of common fate
Today is built on tragedies
which no one wants 2 face
nightmares 2 humanities
and morally disgraced
Tonight is filled with rage
violence in the air
children bred with ruthlessness
because no one at home cares
Tonight I lay my head down
but the pressure never stops
knawing at my sanity
content when I am dropped
But 2morrow I c change
a chance 2 build a new
Built on spirit intent of Heart
and ideals
based on truth
and tomorrow I wake with second wind
and strong because of pride
2 know I fought with all my heart 2 keep my
dream alive

Not So Good At Baseball
Whenever we play baseball, I always try to hide
I'm always last to get picked, when its time to choose up sides
'Cause's he's not so good at baseball, Can't hit or pitch or throw
He can't run fast so we pick him last; It's something we all know
One day I'm in the outfield; I'm out there all alone
The ball was coming at me; I heard my team-mates moan
I held my mitt up to the sky and rose to meet the test
The score was tied; I knew that I would try to do my best
The game was mine to win or lose, I heard my team mates call
They cheered me as I made the catch...and then I dropped the ball
Ballad: Barry Louis Polisar http://www.barrylou.com/lyricsBaseball.html
"Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack,
I don't care if I never get back,
Let me root, root, root for the home team,
If they don't win it's a shame.
For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out,
At the old ball game."
Lyric: Jack Norworth http://www.niehs.nih.gov/kids/lyrics/ballgame.htm
Caged
Alone i moan
in the darkness of home
were you don't care
alone i bear
But you just stare
with eyes of rage
I'm stuck in this cage
I ask why I'm here
But you don't hear
i sense your fear
i cant strike
these bars are cold as ice
so i growl
you fall down
but now i know
why i am not in my real home
for they are weak
and cant hear the call
so they run in fear
and cage me in here

TEDDY GEIGER LYRICS
For You I Will (Confidence)
Wondering the streets, in a world underneath it all
Nothing seems to be, nothing tastes as sweet
As what I can't have
Like you and the way that you're twisting your hair
round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you
What I feel about you.
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
and cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
Forgive me if I stutter
From all of the clutter in my head
Cuz I could fall asleep in those eyes
Like a water bed
Do I seem familiar, i've crossed you in hallways
a thousand times, no more camouflage
I want to be exposed, and not be afraid to fall.
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will
For you
If I could dim the lights in the mall
And create a mood I would
Shout out your name so it echos in every room
I would
That's what I'd do, That's what I'd do to get through to you
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
And cannon ball into the water
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
You always want what you can't have
But I've got to try
I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will
For you I will

This is my ballad Mrs. Basham
School makes her wanna go smiming,
her school makes her feel like floating.
she goes home at noon with so much to do,
she never has time to try something new.
She cant wait till her mom gets out of there,
she doesn't want anybody to feel any fear.
So she walks to the near lake.
Hoping that it will erase what she really hates.
I want to swim out as far as i can.
Oh, I cant wait to leave this land.
I cant wait to leave this land.
I cant wait till i stop breathing.
My pain will end soon, mom stop crying.

Alejandro Zuniga from chris brown
Young love, love love.
A teenage love.
Young love.
A teenage love.
Young love, young love, everything I need, I got my young love.
Young love.
A teenage love
Tell me what's the definition of love.
It seems like everybody thinks they done figured it out but everytime they fall up in it,
They fall out, in and out it again
Tell me how they gonna know about us, telling me and you that we ain't even been around long enough
We can prove 'em wrong, show 'em how it's done, I know that we can do it
Cause it's wild'n out (we got that)
Forgiving (we got that)
If it's talk'n bout how we feel'n (we got that)
If it's hanging out, keeping it real then (we got that)
Me and you know what the deal is
Since we ain't 21, they be trying to say it ain't love
Cause we can't hit the clubs, they be trying to say we too young
I ain't saying that we trying to be grown, I'm just saying that we old enough to know
We got that young love, young love
We lucky cause we got that young love
It's crazy how all our friends say, that we gone, they still tryna figure us out, babe
'Cause we always together, and we don't gotta front, we ain't pretend, girl
And you know a couple of them gone hate, talk behind your back, smile up in ya face
Girl we can prove 'em wrong show 'em how it's done and girl I know we can do it because
'cause if it's wild'n out (we got that)
Then forgiven
If it's talk'n bout how we feel'n (we got that)
Just hanging out, keeping it real then (we got that)
Me and you know what the deal is
Since we ain't 21, they be trying to say it ain't love
Cause we can't hit the clubs, they be trying to say we too young
I ain't saying that we trying to be grown, I'm just saying that we old enough to know
We got that young love, young love
We can hit a show,kick it on the block, everywhere we go, we know that we got that young love, young love, young love
Just talking on the phone, laying at the spot, no matter what we do, they know they can't stop that young love, young love, young love
(you're my young love baby)
Since we ain't 21, they be trying to say it ain't love
Cause we can't hit the clubs,they be trying to say we too young
I ain't saying that we trying to be grown, I'm just saying that we old enough to know
We got that young love, young love
Young love, young love everything I need I got my young love
Young love, young love everything I want I got in my young love
[2x]
and my ballad
Love and hate and you and i
Am i to be loved by you a day,
and lost for your heart the other?
Know that if you walked away,
i will never love another..
Even if i killed my own heart,
and stopped it from it's right to beat.
I swear i'll tare it apart,
if it longed to who is used to cheat.
How have i ever fell for you?
in no time you had all of me.
How didn't i know what's true?
that you never felt for me.
And i saw more than a sign,
but yet i stayed so in love.
Thinking that you are mine,
i flew all the skies above.
And they told me but i didn't believe,
it will end soon for it had no start.
But i heard nothing, trying to achieve,
the dream of my life to reach your heart.
What was ever on my mind?
if people lied to me, will so my eyes?
How was i so blind?
and hiding from all those lies.
I guess that no words are enough,
to describe the pain inside me.
I thought i am your only love,
and i'm your star and reverie.
Can't help but to stare at you,
and stare back at my weary life.
Can't help but to hate you,
and in this gale i won't survife.
Love and hate and you and i,
why did you have to lead me on?
I can't believe those tears i cry,
i can't believe i was never strong..

Hey,Mrs.Basham this is Alma Duran and here's my lyric.
By:Joy Williams
From a CD
I'm In Love With You
I've been waiting all my life for this morning
Just to wake up next to you holding me
And your head is resting gently on my shoulder
Like your whispering to me
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
So glad I found you
I'm in love with you
When were leaving dreams and rolling back the covers
All at once were getting ready for the day
It's when you look at me in the mirror while your shaving
Before I go on my way,you say
I'm in love withyou
I'm in love with you
Your the one I choose
'Cause I'm in love
Love is joy love is pain
It's kissing in the rain
It's doing dishes when it's late
Isnt't it,baby
It's the art of compromise
It's hellos and long goodbyes
It's the picture of our lives
Isn't it crazy
So I'll call you when I get to where I'm going
And I'l tell everyone we know you said hello
And without fail they'll ask me if I miss you
Of course I do,you know I do
'Cause I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
You're the one I choose
I'm in love
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I love you just the same as I did the day
I fell in love with you

Title:"My Life After You Left"
I knew you would break my heart
from the day we broke apart.
You wanted nothing to do with this little boy
the four year old I now call Troy.
There are times I see you walking the street
when I pass by you look down to your feet.
You only come to me when you want some money
calling me names like baby,boo,and honey.
At night I lay down in my bed and cry
wishing I could just curl up and die.
I want you back so very bad
being without you makes me feel so sad.
But I have to admit I am doing so good
I am doing all the things you said I never would.
I found me a new man who has entered into my life and today he asked me to be his wife.
Of course I said yes
and I wish you the best.
Now I must give back the pearl
because I am not longer your girl.

Free verse poem:
Brand New Little Daughter
~ by Linda Lee Elrod ~
She´s your brand new little daughter,
so enchanted, sweet and smart.
With a coo, she´ll have you smiling
With a laugh, she´ll own your heart.
It´s the time for hugs and kisses,
Reassurance when she cries.
It´s the time for making moments
Full of love and Lullabies.
For these golden days of childhood
come and go so very fast -
Hold her tight and love her dearly.
Make these preciouse moments last.
Epitaph:
The allusion is to Niobe turned to stone yet ever weeping; Ovid, particularly X, lines 303-1331. The stone refers back to the marble of the child and is also his monument.
I KNOW I DIDN'T DO SO WELL
I know i didn't do so well
The little time i had.
But though I've lost my only dream,
You were the first reeal date for me,
And i made my mistakes,
I'm still crazy about you.
How much is a love like mine,
Worth to you right now?
Other guys might know the ropes,
But i'm still crazy about you.
So what if you would be a little
Crazy too like me?
And go far it just one more time,
"Cause i'm...well, you already know".

Life Poem
Little kid birthday
© By Nora E. Atkinson
I want milkncookies
And I want to believe in the toothfairy
Because I feel old now
And I've lost the tingle of youth
Because when you're my age,
You don't hear, You're it! often enough
And you don't see the faces in the clouds
And kooties have become AIDS.
And no matter how many bubbles I blow
The world isn't new anymore
And when I walk, one foot on the curb and one on the street,
Updownupdownup,
They look at me funny.
And I don't feel littlekidbirthday anymore
And I don't feel santasbringintoys.
They've all grown old, married, gone away
They've lost their boyish grins,
But I want to play hide-and-go-seek again.
I want to chase the icecream man.
And I don't fear the monsters under my bed anymore
Because the real world scares me now
I used to be able to hug my teddybear
And everything would be ok,
Or mom would kiss the tears away...
But not anymore.
Whirling in the grass till we fell down laughing
Playing dress up in mom's clothes
Days when I didn’t know how to read a clock,
Walking barefoot in the grass.
Those days are gone now.
And I'll never feel littlekidbirthday again
And I don't feel santasbringintoys.
I feel old and grown up now.
I feel old.

"Daddy's Little Girl"
[Verse 1:]
He drops his suitcase by the door
She knows her daddy won't be back anymore
She drags her feet across the floor
Tryna hold back time to keep him holding on
And she says
[Pre Chorus:]
Daddy Daddy don't leave
I'll do anything to keep you
Right here with me
Can't you see how much I need you
Daddy Daddy don't leave
Mommy's saying things she don't mean
She don't know what she's talking about
Somebody hear me out
[Chorus:]
Father listen
Tell him that he's got a home and he don't have to go
Father save him
I would do anything in return
I'll clean my room
Try hard in school
I'll be good
I promise you
Father, Father
I pray to you
[Verse 2:]
Now she hasn't slept in weeks
She don't want to close her eyes cause she's scared that he'll leave
They tried just about everything
It's getting harder now
For him to breathe
And she says
[Pre Chorus:]
Daddy Daddy don't leave
I'll do anything to keep you
Right here with me
Can't you see how much I need you
Daddy Daddy don't leave
The doctors are saying things they don't mean
They don't know what they talking about
Somebody hear me out
[Chorus:]
Father (father) listen (listen)
Tell him that he's got a home and he don't have to go (don't have to go)
Father (father) save him
I would do anything in return
I'll clean my room
Try hard in school
I'll be good
I promise you
Father, Father
I pray to you
[Hook:]
Please don't let him go (don't let him go)
I'm begging you so (I'm begging you so)
There open his eyes
There ain't no more time
To tell him that I love him more
Than anything in the world
Is Daddy's little girl
[Chorus:]
Father (father) listen (listen)
Tell him that he's got a home and he don't have to go (don't have to go)
Father (father) save him
I would do anything in return

Him The Sacrament Lyrics
I hear you breathe so far from me
I feel your touch so close and real
And I know
My church is not of silver and gold,
It's glory lies beyond judgement of souls
The commandments are of consolation oh
You know our sacred dream won't fail
The sanctuary tender and so frail
The sacrament of love
The sacrament of warmth is true
The sacrament is you
I hear you weep so far from me
I taste your tears like you're next to me
And I know
That our prayers are not enough to give
Oh the ancient runes so deep and so dear
The revelation is our patron fear
You know our sacred dream won't fail
The sanctuary tender and so frail
The sacrament of love
The sacrament of warmth is true
The sacrament is you
The sacrament is you
The sacrament is you
The sacrament is you
The sacrament is you
You know our sacred dream won't fail
The sanctuary tender and so frail
The sacrament of love
The sacrament of warmth is true
The sacrament is you
You know our sacred dream won't fail
The sanctuary tender and so frail
The sacrament of love
The sacrament of warmth is true
The sacrament is you

The shadow of Love
Josh Galvan
It’s Hard to believe that our hearts were meant to be broken by love, there is a shadow that love casts it creeps through the hearts, the shadow makes the decision of love, it can take you through a maze that breaks you down, it can lead you to a fortress of solitude but sometimes it can bring you to your one true love
-DEAD

Confusion
Inside Joy outside sorrow outside sorrow, Inside blood outside pain, Inside white outside black It’s all so sad even that will turn bad
Joy turns to sorrow, blood turns to pain, white turns to black and black to white, Death to life and life to death

Free verse
The Hypothetical Baby
While it sleeps, there is peace,
In my heart and head.
What if it should wake up in the night,
Steal my sense with its longing,
Make itself present with a tiny bit of desire?
Who will comfort it then,
Stop the wailing of a soul unfulfilled,
Keep it from feeling unloved, alone?
Better to ignore it, let it learn
There is not always room in the big bed.
It will stop crying in a while.
It always does.

I Crave Your Mouth, Your Voice, Your Hair
DON'T GO FAR OFF, NOT EVEN FOR A DAY
Don't go far off, not even for a day, because --
because -- I don't know how to say it: a day is long
and I will be waiting for you, as in an empty station
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don't leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
the smoke that roams looking for a home will drift
into me, choking my lost heart.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Don't leave me for a second, my dearest,
because in that moment you'll have gone so far
I'll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying?

WHEN WE BROKE UP, YOU SAID YOU'D ALWAYS LOVE ME
When we broke up, said you'd always love me.
always, you said want we'd be friend
But soon I saw you wanted noting of me,
And then I understood that's how it ends,
You said, "well, its much harder than i thought"
I guess it's always easier to lie.
You said "Well, ask me anything you want"
But I was much too frightend to ask why
I guess it's doesn't matter why we failed,
Or, why I love after what you're done,
Or why the hashest truths must be unveilid.
After the last train has come and gone,
I miss you and I love you, ever though
What happened lies too deep for me to know.

I am in love with you
I have a love for you
that's runs deep through.
I paid the price that was not cheap.
My Heart in every beep,
my very being.
That is something that your not seeing.
If you only knew, to be with you... just what I do.
When I am alone and nothing to do all I think is you.
Then you just might know how much you mean to me.
then, only then, you could see.
I would even give up my life to set you free.
You know that how much you mean to me.
so yes it has be true
I am so in love with you.

Here is Alejandro Zuniga,
a man with joy and pride.
He just hoped he wouldn't died.
Here Lies Harry Christopher Carabina
(Harry Carey)
February 26th, 1914 – February 18th, 1998
Harry was a good man,
But He was a Cubs fan;
There is nothing more I have to say about his death.
Epitaph: Gabriel Ozuna
The Astros
I love baseball.
The Astros are my team.
God knows they're not the Yankees,
but I love them just the same.
At least they're not the Red Sox,
the White Sox, or the Cubs.
There going all the way this year,
I can feel it in my bones.
Of course, I have said that many times before.
Until then, I'll keep hoping,
praying, dreaming that my dream will come true.
Free Verse: Gabriel Ozuna
The Prisoner
What is it about you that makes me feel weak,
And gives me the goose bumps whenever you speak?
Why does the sight of you fill me with pleasure,
Like a spotlight that shines on a glorious treasure?
Are you so different from others I’ve known?
What qualities do you have that are yours alone?
What can it be that fills up my heart?
And makes me feel lost whenever we part?
There’s no easy answer for this marvelous bliss,
For the wonder I feel whenever we kiss,
For the fire that rages at the touch of your skin,
For the way my heart pounds for you way deep within.
It must be the power of love that I feel,
That ties me in bonds that seem strong as steel.
I could fight to get loose, but I’d rather give in;
To stay trapped by your charms is how I will win.

EPITAPH by Merrit Malloy
When I die
Give what's left of me away
To children
And old men that wait to die.
And if you need to cry,
Cry for your brother
Walking the street beside you.
And when you need me,
Put your arms
Around anyone
And give them
What you need to give to me.
I want to leave you something,
Something better
Than words
Or sounds.
Look for me
In the people I've known
Or loved,
And if you cannot give me away,
At least let me live on your eyes
And not on your mind.
You can love me most
By letting
Hands touch hands,
By letting
Bodies touch bodies,
And by letting go
Of children
That need to be free.
Love doesn't die,
People do.
So, when all that's left of me
Is love,
Give me away

hey Mrs. Basham, heres my free verse poem:
Washed Away
Nothing's changed except me and the facts
And the sadness I didn't mean to start.
But it feels different now you've said
It's wrong, and I still can't see your point.
And I think as water runs over my hands that
That's really all there is or can be.
The gold is wearing off the infamous ring
And something wears away from around my heart.

Mrs. Basham, here's my epitaph:
Here lies a most beautiful lady,
...Light of step and heart was she:
I think she was the most beautiful lady
...That ever was in the West Country.
But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;
...However rare, rare it be;
And when I crumble who shall remember
...This lady of the West Country?

epitaph
Jonny was a teenager that liked playing with guns
one day his family found out
neither of the parents found the gun
because jonny intented to kill them all
By vicenta
pop,pop,pop a dark tinted escalade
just shot at the nex door house
i hear her yeling and prying to god
please dont take my son
lil tec was just 12 years old
when the people from the west side
drop by his home
I saw u clik
I saw the bullet in you clip
now my hood is looking down at me

From:My Mind
Title: Life is....
Life is what we make it
Through our dreams and through our lies
Life is what we see and what we choose to realize.
Life is How we life what we believe in and what we percieve
Life is How we live it, no one else can live for me......
some choose to play basketball and others want it all
but life my friend who is decieved is just for the for the fall.....
for once we fall once moe we rise to see how things have changed
no matter what you mom may say my child learns from mistakes.......
So stand dear titans and scream it loud no matter what man may say.....
so be the true man who lies in you
is the best that of anyman who lives today..............
