Well since I have an excess of poems, I've decided just to dedicate a thread to my poems/short stories. This will be updated when I find old ones on my computer or write new ones. Please comment and tell me what you think.

'Friends'

Another good day.
Another bad night.
I'll trade one bad habit for another
Are you watching?

Sitting next to me,
I know you can see everything.
Why do you ignore it?
It's so obvious.

We're back in this familiar place,
Where death and life collide,
And I'm about to fall off the edge.

No reason to stay,
Yet plenty of reasons to leave.
Won't you watch me as I destroy myself again tonight?
~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is an older one:

'Romeo And Juliet'

Glistening pearls fall down my cheek
And moisten your once crisp shirt

I cradle your head one last time
Hoping that you'll tell me once more
That everything will be ok

Looking at what I've done
I cringe
I've lost the courage to follow you

Our headline
Was supposed to say
"Romeo and Juliet have died again"

But now
My romeo
I'm sorry I can't.

What's that?
I can hear you right beside me,
Whispering for me to join you.

I lower your head,
Stand,
And look at your forever peaceful face.

I smile my last smile,
Put the gun to my chest,
Take my last breath,
Pull the trigger.

Immortal forever

'Killer Instinct'

It takes a girl of little faith,
To blind you for days.
It takes a seduction of your greatest fears,
Just to rouse your interest.

You've got the one thing they all want,
But hate yourself for every minute of it.
Making fears and dreams,
Into the most bitter lies and lust.

Babe you've got the killer instinct,
To live through your drug-addled haze.
Babe you've got that killer instinct,
That makes me want to melt away your sins.

I'll throw my proclamations of desire in your face.
Turn away with disgust.
Let me down to the lowest level.
Decrepit creatures are we that feed off of the other's anguish.


Babe you've got the killer instinct,
To tear me down time and again
Babe you've got that killer instinct,
That smashes my hollow heart into pieces.

Deep toned sorrow laces its' way through my heart
Acknowledging that this is ******** hopeless.
Sick of being delusional,
Blinded by that killer instinct, babe.

I'll laugh as I cry,
And dance as I fall.
I'll stop as I plead.

'Let me be blinded by that killer instinct,
Babe,
I love you.
Please, just please,
Let me wash away your sins.
I just want to be blinded by that killer instinct.......
At least once more.'

This is an old one..

'Fade'
Sadness reaches out to me
From the recesses of my mind
An embraces me in it's cold grasp

I've been dreading this day
Ever since we parted
Those many months ago
The day I regret

All the things I have done to you

I cry for you,
Remembering your sweet embrace
I cry for me,
Remebering all the hurt I caused you
I just want to forget you
But my memories of you
Will never fade

Please just leave me!
I scream
But that won't help
The things I feel for you
Fade.

I still remember
All the good times we shared
And all the times we were in despair

I want to return to you
I'll welcome you back
But you won't accept me
I know you won't
How could you

I've done horrible things
Broken your heart into pieces
But I can fix it
If you want me to

But you don't
You avoide me at every turn
My soul cries for your warm embrace
To surrond me once again

Please come back to me
Before I....
Fade.

And I'm about to fall off the edge.


Lots of emotion involved. I like it. "Fade" gave me the chills. Nice work! 3nodding
