So, I write a lot of poetry, and I'm compiling it here. :] Enjoy. Critique is welcome.

Writing Just For You


Many moons have passed since I’ve been alive;
Not once has my heart missed the crash dive,
Freefalling into a bliss so surreal that I find a high,
Leaving all my love bone dry.
I couldn’t have known what I was missing,
Because I couldn’t bring myself to stop reminiscing.
Letting go of my bright and shining sun,
Is something that I now know I should have never done.
But what is done and past I should not regret,
Because you can’t always win at Russian roulette.

Sometimes I trace the not-so-old scars she left,
The precision she used was all too deft.
I never thought she would tear me apart,
I never expected her to carry that art.
So I lay here dieing in a pool of my own blood,
Sinking at rock bottom and down through the mud.
I had no hope, no light, no fear,
I couldn’t bear to shed another tear.
I had given her up, but she had long left me,
Why stick around when I’m only a banshee?
I watched her leave once more, without a tear to show,
Sinking into that mud, oh-so far below.

It felt like so long before life changed,
I was beginning to feel deranged.
But then a hand clasped my wrist,
Oblivious to my wounds it seemed they did persist.
Air rushed my lungs,
But I must have spoken in tongues.
Because my freedom was met with regret,
To his stone heart I was a threat.
Broken merchandise isn’t worth the crusade,
And he pushed me into the blade.

Another needle pierced my vein,
Another blade relieved my pain.
Another broken heart, another love lost,
Seemed I couldn’t live no matter what the cost.

Love could only fail,
When a heart is so frail.

But something went right when the world was wrong,
And you finally made me strong.

it's-an[addiction]


All it takes is one more shot.
That’s all it takes to be caught.
All it takes is one more beer.
So let’s revive all that fear.
C’mon, c’mon, just one more break.
Just one more line for old time’s sake.
One more pill and bombs away.
I can feel the Eve today.
Now the Smack infects my veins.
Now only my death remains.
What a lie that has been told!
A betrayal so cold.
I take another puff.
It will never be enough.

dead.


I screamed into my fear for you,
But I was begging to deaf ears, that I knew.
What's this? Another note in my hand?
What's this? Another lie to tell my band?
You claimed that a monster could never love,
That angels aren't the only things who come from above.
Another kiss you grant to save the day,
My sobs now stolen away.
It was perfection, serene and bright,
I never knew it would feel so right.
I knew it was too good to be true,
Because you were gone when I turned to you.
I screamed your name from that waterfall I shed.
I couldn't live without you, now I'm dead.

FINAL NOTICE: Payment Overdue


Shaking and breaking, I need my fix.
My hands tremble so I count to six.
One, precious air rushes my lungs.
Two, I begin to shout in tongues.
Three, I need to stay away.
Four, I might be dead today.
Five, I'm losing the fight.
Six, please kill me tonight.
I doubt I'll survive.
Here comes the high dive.
I jump and plunge to my death.
I take that last line of Meth.
No, the light, it's flooding me.
I'm losing, I can't be free.
My sweet release will never come.
Death can't seem to get the job done.
Here comes the E-R to save the day.
Now I am the one who has to pay.

broke up.


She destroyed what we had.
Not too much, just a tad.
I can feel it crushing me.
I'm losing control, now I see.
I need you by my side.
Can't you see how she lied?

This One if For You, Tiff


Away she slipped, peaceful in sleep
Down she went and into the deep
The ones you love are only a thought away
Their souls will always shine like a brand new day
But we are forced to let them go
All the time we stay far below
So we watch her fly, away she goes
Up into the sky, like no one knows

Sweet Sixteen

others think they understand
but right now i must demand
in 6209 days
i never loved in so many ways
i never thought i would say
those three words without delay
i pray you love me as much as i do you
and maybe one day we'll say "I do."
