So I have a talent show on Jan 10th and I'm reading 2 poems and the guy who I practice with told me to find music for in the backround. I told him I would and he said it would help keep the audiance's attention and help with the mood and stuff. So here I am now 9 days from the show and......I can't find any songs that sound right with the 2 poems!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

So now I get to sound stupid and ask that if anyone is bored and really good with music if they can help me out and comment this blog with a song or 2 that might fit. Both poems are slow-ish when being read. They are also posted below. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE HELP!!!

amor gravatus

I love you so,
You are my breath,
You are my soul,
My life, I live just for you,
Can't you see,
You are my everything?

When you didn't show,
I was sad yes,
But I wasn't mad,
I wasn't ever hurt,
When you broke promises,
I didn't cry,
I wasn't hurt,
I wasn't upset.

When you played games,
You said you liked me,
You asked me out,
Then you ignored me for days.

Well honey this is just for you,
I need to tell you the honest truth,
That night you asked,
I couldn't answer,
I told you I couldn't breathe,
I told you I would pass out,
You thought I was happy,
But I was just laughing too hard.

You tried to break me down,
You played your games,
You had your fun,
You thought you could break me,
You thought you could hurt me,
But I moved on and I am strong,
I don't need you as I thought I did.

You're still my breath,
You're still my love,
You're still my soul,
Still I live just for you.

But now things changed,
And I have seen the world,
Through the blood tinted,
Glasses of pain,
I don't need to breath,
I torn my heart,
Boxed it up,
Puked it out,
I've already died,
Completely inside,
I have no soul,
I lack control.

I made you jealous,
You admitted,
You did have feelings,
Don't you see honey,
I'm just a teenage girl,
Who once loved,
Who once lived,
Who once had control,
Who once had a heart,
Who once could smile,
Once could laugh,
Now I see that it was fake,
And just how fun life can be,
Once you play around,
With jealousy.

She loved him

She loved him,
Like never before,
Though her lay shattered,
On the kitchen floor.

She loved him,
With all she had,
Though towards her,
He was always mad.

She loved him,
All the more,
Even though,
Her heart was sore.

She loved him,
Through it all,
Though with him,
Her life did fall.

She loved him,
Wth everything,
With him near,
Her heart would sing.

She loved him,
Like no other could,
Never letting go,
Though knowing she should.

She loved him,
And she could only mourn,
For the love of her life,
Her heart was torn.

She loved him,
more and more,
Though she lay dead,
On the bedroom floor.

She loved him,
Then and forever,
Though his answer was always,
"When hell freezes over".

or instead of "She loved him" I might do "Beautiful, Simply Beautiful"((see below)) which ever I find music for.

Beautiful, Simply Beautiful.

 

I could watch him for hours,

As he sketches unaware,

He asks me what I think,

“Beautiful” I whisper unknowingly,

Mesmerized with the crystal ponds,

That are his hazel eyes.

I watch his hands,

As they guide the pencil,

Carefully deliberately over the page,

Seemingly soothing the unknown pains,

The paper bears with it,

Those very same hands,

He holds me so lovingly with,

And I envy that pencil and paper.

“What do you think?”

My friends ask,

About their sketches,

“Awesome” I reply not looking,

Satisfied they walk away.

His hands stop,

And I wonder why,

I look up and there I see,

Misty eyes looking at me,

We hold up our sketches,

Mine I think blank,

His…

Of me watching him.

“Beautiful” we both say,

Looking at my paper,

I see him looking back at me.

I drew him,

Drawing me,

“Beautiful,

Simply beautiful.”

We say again
