Poca's Anthology

"Her Majesty, Lady Poca"

Hidden behind the walls...of her secluded mountaintop estate...
Lives "Her Majesty.."Lady Poca"...guarded safely by its gate.
As she strolls about the grounds...she waves to those below...
Some she's only met..and some she doesn't know...
With a subtle motion of her wrist..the butler brings her stool..
He takes "The Lady's" things...and walks her to..the famous "Poca Pool"...
The "Poca Pool"....for those who know..has seen its share of sights....
With "Lady Poca"...and the others....her parties last all night!!
But it seems when all is said and done.."Lady Poca's" had a real good time!
Her favorite hangout.......in "The Art"....whenever she's "on-line."

Ghost

Like a ghost,
He floats through my mind.
His words are sharp,
His love is blind.
He does not understand,
What he does to me.
Or just how harsh,
He tends to be.
He sees only that I always return.
That my love is always there.
Not that he slowly kills me.
Not that his actions be-lie his care.

If only he could know,
That he's slowly killing me.
That one day "My Love,"
He'll no longer be.

Jake

A lonely little boy,
Missing so much in his life.
No one to love,
Only people to fight.

Pain in his eyes,
Shown to a select few.
Trying to make them see,
His point of view.

Trying so hard,
To make himself known.
Never noticing,
That now he's grown.

That little child,
Is hidden so well.
If he's still there,
He'll never tell.

A lonely young man,
Missing so much in his life.
No one to love,
Only people to fight.

To Remember

This is dedicated to a friend of mine. She was full of life, but taken from us before we were ready to let her go.

I look at the shallow hole in the ground,
Wondering why you were taken away.
You had so much to give, so much to share,
But it was all lost on that fateful day.

A speeding car, gone out of control,
Took your life, so quickly, from me.
Just one foolish act, one stupid stunt,
Just one moment of horror when you hit that tree.

Your lifeless body, like a simple rag,
Lay motionless among the leaves.
You no longer feel the pain,
While those left behind grieve.

Though you're gone forever,
In our memories you'll stay.
I hope others will remember the lesson,
You taught us that winter day.

That precious thing called life,
Can be taken so suddenly.
And the moment we're not looking,
Is the moment a friend will cease to be.

I pray everyone will come to understand,
Even though life seems long,
With one foolish act, one stupid stunt,
Your life, your dreams, will be gone.

For You

Wrap your fingers around my heart
Take it in your hand
I know love's not in your mind
That I understand
But I cannot help myself
I can't back away
I can't change my feelings
Or wait another day.

I know you'll never love me
You'll never feel the way I do
You won't let me in your heart
And I'd never force you to
But keep my heart in your hand
That's where it belongs
The love I have for you
Will never be wrong.

Poca 1997

Dreamers

In the dream world,
Where as a child I played
I no longer find release or joy
No happy thoughts have stayed.

No more happily ever after
Fairy tales are untrue
The Knight in Shining Armor
Is the man I never knew.

There's no one to wake me
With a gentle, loving kiss
So the bright wonders of life
I will always miss.

The real world exists
I cannot run away
So in this sad unhappy world
I am forced to play.

Poca 1997

Fear

Wreaking havoc on my soul
Ignoring my cries of pain
Laughing at my agony
Letting me feel afraid

Watching as I suffer
Enjoying my tears
Invading my thoughts and dreams
Drowning me in fear
Never giving mercy
Every moment the same
Relishing the terror I live in
