DreamerMarshmallow white and grey seem to float upon the shy
As she lays on the soft grass, dirty blonde hair sprawled around her

Gazing above her, weird shapes and pictures dance across the blue expanse
Sometimes a pig, others a shoe, and even a boat

Lost in her own reality of ever changing objects
Too happy to notice her crumbling life

Hours and hours spent on the ground, looking up towards unresponsive heavens
And wishing upon unforgotten dreams

But with her life in the clouds all happy and sweet
And life on the ground, falling to pieces

She's becoming a dreamer when she should be a doer
And she'll be living a life full of pain and so

WheneverWhenever I smile at you
I see the frown that passes by.
I know its silly,
but I still smile
As I cant cry to your face.

Whenever I look in your eyes
I see the mock inside.
I know Im clumsy
But seeing that look in your eyes,
makes me want to die.

Whenever I hear you speak of me.
I can hear you laugh.
I know I am stupid,
But knowing you think so too
makes me want to quit life.

I know its crazy
But I thought you knew,
I had always been this way
Because
whenever I look at you
I cant help but be silly clumsy stupid and crazy,
All at the same time.

TabooWhen I first met you...
you revealed your dark ideals.
Yet, others don't understand...
the way I truly understand you.

Your ideals are considered taboo.
You interest yourself in dark things...
like a cult performing dark magic...
under a black and sinister moon.

Your mind is dark and dirty...
to those who do not understand.
Yet you submerge yourself deeper...
into that deep dark taboo.

You search for one to understand you.
Yet, nobody chooses to listen to your taboo.
You're being forced down a long and dark tunnel...
one deeply full of darkness and hatred.

Yet, I am one of the few who understand you.
I understand your deep an

It's the Wrong Time and Placejust burn all the waste and the stains of the past
hold the orb in your hands for the wrong and the sad
it's the wrong kind of place to be walking on glass
feeling teeth sift through sand in the shadow of the wrath

it's the wrong time
to be still holding back
it's the wrong place
for the piece of the last
it's the wrong time
to be trapped in the dark again

with the skin feel it crawl through the tears and the bone
churning black and the dawn in the gray of the stone
hold your gaze to the stars fight the curse of alone
bringing joy to your hands while you stand on the throne

it's the wrong time
to be feeling this cold
it's the

High School Romancemoving through girls
like they're only
fashion trends

when they get
in a fight
or get tired
of each other

no one tries
to fix anything

just break up
and move onto
another girl

leaving behind shattered hearts
that have to be
picked up
by good souls

who
in turn
get hurt
by their bitterness

while the one
that moves on
laughs
because
he doesn't see
why anyone would love

when they know
the other's intent
isn't love
but lust

guess they only saw
the big "L"
not the rest
of the word

Alone In The StormI’m no angel, just a
Weary traveler in this lifetime
Searching for the missing
Piece of my soul…
Will I ever find it, and as I search
Do I turn a blind eye to every
Other human experience to be had?
Do I let the tempests of the past damage
The untainted future? And when
Does it all become worth fighting for?
So many questions, of which I may
Never find the answers, nevertheless
I find myself resigned to my fate
Alone in the storm, scarcely
Treading the surface…
Perhaps it was always there in front of me, if
Only I opened my eyes.
Perhaps the skies have always been clear, and
The wind was simply crying my name.
Perhaps it has been worth it all along, and all it took was
One word from you.
Please…

Distant StarWhere would I find thee distant star?
Where do you shine from way afar?
How could I know thee truly?
Would I know freedom with thee?
For you do not shine so ruly,
as this morbid moon.
If I were to sit beside thee,
Would you open my eyes to see?
If I were to gaze at your countenance,
Would you illuminate and comfort me?

How would you greet us,
The wanderers of mankind, the poet and his pen?
For we are dust and shadows.
Would you let us drown in the water's shallows?
Thou wise and eternal star,
How may I dwell in this heavenly kingdom,
Which the sons of god take part?
Would thou contend with the Seraphim?
His blazing fire, his

Society's feat.When childhood memories go running away.
When you've grown up, and it's not ok to live off your dreams you once held so dear.
The innocent times, we all seem to cherish.
When is it ok to live them again?

Society looks down on us, for trying to return to those times.
For trying to live a life filled with innocence, but we find joy in killing this thing callledinnocence.
Or maybe that's just me.

Purity is gone by the time the clock strikes twelve, or maybe sooner.

We cannot tell anymore..
The media filling our thoughts, with images that haunt our nights.
With fate around the corner, to rape us of the childhood,
to kill it.
Kil

Into the dark no moreNo more dives into the deep
Let me stay in the shallow
I'll dive into the deep again
But not now, not today

I'll stay away from the dark
and the dangers down there
Let me stay inside the light
Where I can restore again

Let the light touch me
The dark won't get me
I've seen enough of it
turned my back at it

The sun can warm me up
To the inside of my heart
No more darkness inside
what I call my mind

Maybe a spark left behind
To remember how it was
So I don't want to return
To the darkness ever again

UnaccompaniedAre you tired of hiding it
Of exhausting yourself
You don't know why you do it
It's not for anyone else
You're not much more than a hollow shell
Going through the motions in your awful hell.
Sure, you can put on the infamous fake smile
And you're strong enough to leave it there for a while
You don't even have to think, it comes with ease
If you don't want to cry, you don't have to squeeze
Those tear ducts shut, you just tell them no
And you go back to the life of taking it slow
It's actually quite impressive, how much you can take
And I'm really quite astonished on how much you can fake
But before you give up, and just go jump i

You're My Subconscious MemoryI wish I could remember.
I wish I could remember the way it felt to be in your safe embrace,
I wish I could remember the way you taste,
& That buzzing that was left on my lips after we shared a kiss.

I wish I could remember your eyes and their color-
That bright, vivid green that's impossible to describe & forever embedded in my subconscious memory.
{But I know that memories aren't photographs, & I know my memory is not doing you any justice}

I wish I could speak to you again, {Your voice always calmed me down}
You always knew exactly what to say,
& You knew how to make everything seem okay.

I wish that you'd come back to me,
I wis

FallenAnd though I crave to know he loves me,
at the same time I'm afraid,
Knowing the words that I'll have to say,
because there is simply no other way.

We cannot be together
from the start, we knew that
yet we continued talking,
so much not to cross the line.

I tried hard not to fall for him,
faking deafness to his beautiful words,
striving for nonchalance,
yet succeeding at none.

Because just as I know we have no future,
I couldn't have stopped it before it was born,
the feeling of loving, and to be sure of that love.

And still I cannot change it,
even if the pain becomes too much.
Because that means that I've been happy
so m

GoodbyeThere in the shelter,
down the very last row.
An old dog sits,
He's waiting to go.

His ears are drooping,
his tail won't sway.
He's been like this.
Since she walked away.

He doesn't want life.
He doesn't care.
He has no reason,
Without her there.

They come for him.
He holds his head high.
For the first and last time,
There's a spark in his eye.

He's led past the pens.
Silence falls.
Not one sound is made,
As he exits the hall.

A quiet room.
One needle marks his death.
He shudders and cries,
He takes a last breath.

And then it erupts.
Howls for the fallen.
He goes with a smile,
He heard them calling.

Chaos in the k

Falling

Falling farther and farther
Crying out
Not a sound escapes my lips

Being watched, being lost
Help me find my way back
Back to where I came

Where am I from?
Frightful questions
Horribly petrifying

My words still don't break the silence
Living while falling,
Falling while dying

Trying to find the ground again
It's slipping away
I'm slipping away

Please hear me
Answer me

Questions flooding
Drowning in my woes
Help me breath

Hear me
Answer me
Save me

Please
Please
Pleas

Falling farther and farther
Crying out
Yet not one sound escapes my lips

Forever YoungIf you could live forever, would you take that chance?

Imagine, watching your own life from afar.
Remembering the heartbreak and the tears,
Seeing all the people who left you with scars;
Coming to terms with your hidden fears.
Remember the day when you said to me,
"I want to die young or live forever."
Surely after all these years, you can see
You cannot simply wish for whatever.
Because every time I see you cry,
I'm reminded of just how much I love you.
How could you possibly wish to die?
If only you knew, if only you knew…

Do you really want to live forever?

Brighter Than the Spotlight

Literature / Poetry / General Poetry / Traditional Fixed Forms

The downbeat starts the show
And every time we turn a page,
You're louder than the music
For your smile fills the stage.

The melody is playing
And the beauty may befall,
You're closer than the audience
For your face can move the hall.

The song begins right now
And with the other actors gone,
You're brighter than the spotlight
For your eyes keep beaming on.

I never hear the words
Because the figure there is you...
You're stronger than the curtain
For your voice just shines right through.
