Creative Writing

Mainly from high school and junior high. Please don't stoop low enough to steal my writing.

The cheesy story that was here has been deleted. Don't worry, If you didn't read it, you're not missing anything! Enjoy the poems!
Love, Pepper :)

Very depressing. That was about my skater boyfriend when I was um 14 I think, maybe 15. We actually ended up being really cool friends. But after awhile we didn't hang out as much. The deal back then, was he was too wrapped up in drugs, skating and his other girlfriends. I knew he LOVED his skating, but I was pretty clueless to the other stuff. Anyway, he's pretty far gone now because of all the drugs he did when he was younger. But I still have cool memories and think he's a sweetie. He taught me to be myself. And even though I went through a lot of depression and blamed it on him, in the long run it all helped me not be so dependent on guys. Well more creative writing to come, that was pretty lame example of my "talents" really it was just a teenager and the everyday shit they deal with. I'll dig out my poem books or old journal entries.. and of course you'll then hear about my husband. HEE HEE HEE :)

The Perfect Man
To me the perfect man would be
Understanding as can be.

Hed have a heart so big and wide
He wouldnt have any room for pride.

His loving arms would gently hold
And melt away heartaches foretold.

His lips would speak such soothing words.
A lie from him would never be heard.

Advice hed give when you would ask
No help from him is too big a task.

Now you may wonder if such a man exists,
So let me tell you who it is.

In heaven Gods the perfect man
No doubts are in my mind.
But down on earth,
My husband is the perfect of mankind.



Pepperbird

A combination of Red Hot Chili Peppers,
Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band,
and good old Dr. Pepper.
A nickname of Jilly Bird.
A combination of things I love.

My personality shines through the gloomy clouds and comes out through my nickname.
I sing to Red Hot Chili Peppers when Im mad, hyper or just plain feeling good.
I sing to The Beatles when Im sad, depressed, deeply in love, or when Im happy.
I sing to Rod Stewart when Im feeling romantic, sexy, lovely, or wild, or while Im driving.
I also sing to all kinds of other music while I clean, write poetry or while I do just about anything.

Dr. Pepper tastes best with friends, but hell, Ill drink it anytime.
I obviously like to write poems,
and I hope to get better at it as I write more about life, death, daydreams,
lovers, friends, and all that this groovy world has to offer.
I try so hard not to judge people, so I get along with mostly everyone.
Of course there are those few that no one can really get along with.
So, love me for me and take me for who I am.
Because deep down, I really like myself, and dont wish to change.

Grass

Earth, do you realize that you have green hair that often gets cut without your permission?
What is it like to be green hair?
I often wander atop of you, pondering out loud.
I like to lie down on you and feel you tickling my neck.
The only blade I know that wont cut my skin.

Life
The Beatles say we live in a Yellow Submarine.
And yet the Dead Milkmen say were members of a f---ed up world.
I say we live in a world in-between.
Somewhere in-between a Yellow Submarine and a very f---ed world.
And all I want is someone to understand me.
Understand that Im human.
No matter how hard I try, Ill never be perfect.
But as long as I try, everything will be alright.
I dont think like you, because Im me.
I dont see through your eyes, because I dont have 20/20 vision.
But I will try to see things your way.
I wont judge you, if you wont judge me.
Dont tell me how to live, and I wont tell you how to act.
Let me be myself, but if you see something for me to improve on,
Dont hesitate to mention it to me.

Love (My Cat)

I looked out my window and saw such a sight.
The snow had been falling forever last night.
I thought of my cat sitting out there all night,
Meowing at my window from cold and from fright.
So I opened the door and she came running in.
Then she meowed, but it wasnt a meow, let me in,
It was a meow, thanks, now I love you again.
Then she purred and she meowed all the morning inside.
And then she ran down to my bedroom to hide.

People

People are different in so many ways.
They do different things with their long, lonely days.
Some people cry,
And some sit wondering why
And some sit being bored till they die.
But others have fun,
Running out in the sun,
Wondering what the next day will be like.
And others are home, sitting there by the phone,
Wondering where in the hell is my wife?
Some try to be good, doing all that they should,
While others dont care what goes on.
And some are lost souls,
In their head there are holes
And they walk around singing dumb songs.

Poems

Im sitting here writing a poem about poems.
Just sitting on my floor, in my room, in my home.
Im listening to Led Zepplin, and thinking of what to write.
I love writing poems, I could stay up writing all night.
I have written many poems in my long and lonely life.
I write about many things- from heartaches and pains to being a wife.
So now I shall end with a thought and a kiss,
And I really love the one that I miss.

Drifting

In my imaginary world,
Things are perfect as a rose.
With nothing to worry about,
And no one hating their nose.
My life (for all its worth),
Looks brighter than the sun.
And no matter how boring things are,
I always seem to have fun.
Its as though Im like a child,
Always wanting to run away,
Even though I truly know,
Things get better day by day.
And then I come back,
And Im in the real world,
Riding on the worlds famous rollercoaster,
Where someone else has hurled.

Ice Cream Cone

I seem to have lost my top. But what can I do?
The sun melted my milky-white goodness
And now Im here all alone.
Drip, drop, drip, drop,
Drip, drop, drip,
Drop, drip,
Drop,
Drip
!

I Guess You Could Call This A Love Poem

Love is a word,
a feeling,
an emotion.
Love is my friend.
Love is the setting suns reflection in your eyes.
Love is the way I strongly feel for you.
Love is the smile so often upon my face
as I think of a memory of us or even the sound of your name.
Love is the birds singing a song about you and I in the midnight mist.
Love is my pounding heart in my chest
felt upon yours.
Love, my friend, is you.
Love is the loving way you look into my eyes to tell me you love me.
Love is the tears that trickle down my cheeks
as I realize how lucky I am to have someone to love.

Once in a Lifetime

For the love of my life
I would do anything.
I would grant any wish,
Help dreams to come true.
For you only get one true chance to love,
To share of your soul
And press yourself to the limits of eternity.
You start out trying to impress your mate
And end up impressing yourself as well
Doing things you never knew
You had the capability to do.
My love is the most beautiful thing to me
Doesnt matter what anyone else thinks.
Hes beautiful in so many ways
Its so flattering to think he chose me.
And you may try to put him down
When I try my hardest to keep his hopes up.
But you cant hurt my lover
When I stand up for our love.
I stand amazed
Gazing into the clear blue ocean of his eyes
And I see the tears he tries to hide.
But love has no hiding place.
He admits his tears of love
And makes me feel like the queen of his heart.
I dont exactly own him
And hell never own me
But we freely give each other our hearts and souls.
And well always have our love,
The love that happens only once in a lifetime.
