A Silent Goodbye

Alone and laying on her bed,
Releasing words from her head.
A lonely girl writes a letter,
To the ones who knew her better.
Trickling down her cheek,
Her tears begin to speak.
The story of her pain,
Of loss without gain.
Ink flows along the page,
Freeing words from their cage.
From her wrists a liquid flows,
A painful mark which nobody knows.
A stain forms upon her bed,
Hiding words never said.
Fluttering slowly, her eyes begin to glaze,
As she enters a dreamy haze.
Her hand goes limp as her pen falls,
Her eyes go dark as death calls.
Black curls rest around her face,
An eerie silence deafens this place.
A whisper is heard in the night,
Giving truth to this deathly sight.
A life has been taken to end the pain,
A memory has been left in a blood red stain.

Roses and Wedding Bands

Alone in the shadows
Head in her hands
She dreamt of roses
And wedding bands.
A family who cared
A mother who was there
A man who would love her
And treat her fair.
But her heart has been broken
Her mind has been betrayed
Her home was left empty
And a father had strayed.

Alone in the shadows
With her silent tears
She cowers from affection
Running from her fears.
Confused and dazed
She cannot understand
Why there are no roses
And no wedding bands.

I wrote this one on the back of a biology test ^^..back when I was in high school lol ^^

Tuesday Morning

There I say,
At the table.
Eyes all around me,
Looking with regret.
"I've got bad news..."
They spoke.
"Its about Jake."
My heart sank,
Became one with my stomach.
Pounding, aching, heaving,
I knew it then,
No need to say more.
But they persisted,
Turning my thoughts into words.
Spoken aloud,
Confirming my nightmare.
"He took his life last night..."
"Your mother found him."
Oh mom, I'm sorry,
I heard my heart speak.
Amidst the anguish,
I wasn't at her side.
Oh, why did I not go,
Why did I stay when he called?
We spoke the night before,
"I'll call back" he said.
Assuring, I knew he was there,
But the phone never rang.
Never again will I hear the voice,
Of a dieing father.
Never again will we say,
I love you...

Touch of a Soul Reaper Part. 1

Shadows
Surrounding me
Long slender claws
Snaking their way across my skin.

Brushing over the light within
Working towards my soul
Pain oozes from the digits
Probing my being.

Touched by poison
Falling from reality
Fading, my eyes weaken
The shadows come in closer.

I feel their touch
My skin teased by a revolting caress
Retching my body convulses
I need to be free.

Fluttering sight
I can not see
Swaying vision
My mind is slipping.

Probing deeper
The ooze drips within
Small dark blotches
My being is staind.

Touch of a Soul Reaper Part. 2

Straining
I try to fight
Aching I press on
Refusing to give in.

Shivering in discust
Slowly being tainted
I scream in frustration
Tears trying to flow.

Blackened
My eyes can not see
Blindly urging
Strength I once posessed.

Lost I cry
I do not know what happened
Where did I lose myself?
When did the black dove take over?

Wings pertruding
Black tattered feathers
My whole has changed
I have lost to a dark past.

I recognize the feelings
The wings a faint memory
A victory I thought once won
Now a defeat.

Forsaken Rose
Hidden in the shadows,
A girl lays lost and shattered.
Somewhere down the road,
Her life was taken and tattered.
A voice calls from the darkness,
Sending shivers down her spine.
A heart has been broken and family destroyed,
Still she smiles like everything’s fine.
Her mother never calls and her body’s been forsaken,
Her father’s never been there and she’s never had a home.
Always moving from place to place,
So she writes her poems.
Knowing she’s not the best at it,
She tries anyway.
She writes her thoughts, her pain, her fears,
But the pain forever stays.
She feels unwanted…alone…insecure,
Always thinking she’s to blame.
Forever wondering why she feels this way,
Yet hoping things stay the same.
For all she knows is pain and confusion,
It’s just how her life goes.
Hidden in the shadows,
She is a forsaken rose.
