Pretty much just come here to post your own poetry and post works by your favorite poets and such.
PostPosted: Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:11 pm


This is one of my very early works:

She sits in a fetal position in the corner of her cell
I feel she knows when I dream of her
Always a few seconds into the dream her gaze snaps up to meet mine
I have not ever been able to see much of her face
The reason a cause of her face always being covered by her hair
But I have seen it once for a fleeting moment and oh how beautiful it is!
If I could, I know tears would strem down my face
The reason is because whenever I dream of her, near midnight she is beaten
It is the guards, they beat her with swords and other cruel weapons
I have the strongestof desires to charge at them and slay them allbut I know I can't
I feel asthough, as though I know this woman
But it would not be in this lifetime but another, it felt as if we were in love
Love... This word kept replaying itself in my mind
The word, I know, means much more than I could ever comprehend
When the guards begin beating beating her, her gaze hold on my and her eyes become pleading
I always feel the urge to look away, but there is a force holding me so that I cannot look away
Then, I knew, when I had these 'dreams' of her, I knew she could see me

A very old poem I'd written, but it's one of my favorites.

What Happened?

Straighten up and smile
You can see for a mile
Night mares flash before your mind
and suddenly your pushed from behind
This unexpected hate came
from the one you love dearly.
You twirled as you fell down and down
From a cliff of happiness
yet,below was not comforting
Uneasy surges of pain
shocked your little body
Pull up!Some one called
You let out your wings and
slowly drift into neutrality
You soar up and up
from the uneasy feelings
and into happiness once more
Your chest pounds with indignation
Now the actions are done,
but the memory will remain
for eternity.

A more recent one. Again, the same theme as the first.

Upon Thy Binding Sings

Ananymous feelings benine,
to those uplifting wings.
Love forever yours to keep,
Upon thy binding sings.

Sing-song Lullably,
Frightening Death below.
Hoping you survive the thrusted drop,
'Pon my rocky soul.

Ananymous feelings benine,
taking no heed to the feelings of mine.
Distinct upon a drifting climb,
so I may return to mine and only mine
who smelled so sweetly of dear thyme.

Sing-song lullaby,
I hear you comforting cries
that answer mine and only mine.
Twisted deed took it's toll,
stitching 'pon my rocky soul.

Ananymous feelings benine,
Sing-song lullaby
along with who smells of thyme.
The one that is mine and only mine
I return to with a drifting climb.

Cast me up with silver strings,
Upon thy binding sings.
May it take a deathly role,
lying here 'pon my rocky soul.

One of my most recent ones. Once again it's about a bird. XD

The Eagle soared above in a midnight slumber,
scanning below the pine tree tumber.
She awaited for movement to hatch,
Indeed this would be a successful catch.

Down below she watched the foragers go,
their pace steady but still quite slow.
With a swoop down and a shrieking call,
she saw a look of horrors befall.

Sharp talons worked to take away
a small rodent who did sway.
Inside her claws he did squeek,
yet his efforts were too meek.

Back to the nest she did carry,
who hid in her talons oh so hairy.
Her claws soon began to sweat,
and she did drop the little pet.

His eyes closed in a midnight slumber,
falling down towards the pine tree tumber.
Frail frame rapidly drifted below,
his pace not quite slow.

Eagle as she might be,
taking off in a downwards flee.
With a shriek and a lift,
the eagle caught the mouse quite swift.

Flying off into the deep sky,
her claws would not pry.
Eaglets squawked from their nest,
just awaking from their rest.

Mother as she was,
dropped the small ball of fuzz.
They squawked happily in joy,
comtemplating what to do with their new toy.

Lyrics for songs are a form of poetry so i decided to post the lyrics i've written here.. most of them date back to 2003 so please don't laugh at them.. i was a terrible writer back then. The dates listed here are the ones stamped on the files i have on my computer.. so when they were actually written is a mystery to me. If you want my other poetry go see the other Poetry section in the bag o' tricks area. 3nodding

Drifting Away(from the Light) written June 14, 2003

Drifting away(from the light)

You’re drifting away
I’ll stay
And find a way
To make you see
What you’ll be leaving behind

Chorus: You’re drifting away
From the light
Heading into night
Hold tight
I’ll bring you back to the light

There’s something about you
That tells me just what your trying to see, the light.
so I’ll fight and find a way
To bring you the light

(Repeat chorus)

How can anybody live,
Away from the truth, the light
I just don’t understand how they might
Find a way to survive
But I know someday
You’ll find the way
Back to the light

Drifting away
Now you’re here to stay
I was right
You would find the light

Drifting(back to the light)
Drifting(you’ve found the light)

You achieved your goal
You found your soul
Help me reach mine
So I’m not drifting away
I don’t want to be drifting away
Drifting away, drifting away
Drifting away from the light
The Light

Thank-you Written Feb 28, 2003

It was dark and lonely
forgot what light looked like
but you came and showed me
all I needed to see
you brought me life
and took away the pain

Thank you
for showing me
what I was missing in my life
what I could be
what my life should be
thank you

My life was incomplete
then you appeared
and not it’s complete
you don’t have to compete
no other guy could make me feel alive
you what i’ve been looking for
your what I need and now I.....

Thank you
for showing me
what was missing in my life
what I could be
the colors I needed to see
what my life should be
Thankyou

You gave me a reason to
be alive
you gave me life
a way to survive
when I had lost all hope
you shone through
and brightend my day
and no I pray we’ll never go our separate ways
cause I know i’ll neve live
without you there by my side


Thank you
for showing me
what was missing in my life
what I could be
the colors I needed to see
what my life should be
Thank you

Thank you(Thank you)
for showing me(for showing me)
what was missing in my life
What I could be (what I could be)
the colors I needed to see(all I needed to see)
what my life should be
Thank you(thank you)

oooooooo....
Thank you

Life Written March 13, 2003

hurt fear pain
lose and gain
never the same
go insane
play your part
lose your heart
break apart

Your running from all you know
you’ve seen pain, your runnin in fear
all you know has all been a show
now that you know you shed a tear

Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

you try to hide
you think you can’t survive
no one’s at your side
you wish you could feel alive

Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

lost your pride
no one’s at your side
always compromised
come along for the ride
look around
see what I found
now fall to the ground


Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

you try to belong
doesn’t seem wrong
it takes so long
hurry before your chance is gone
your precious world is fading away
you want it to stay
it’s going away

Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

Life is what you make of it
don’t lose your chance
make something of it
don’t let it pass you by
get up and try
don’t take a second glance
cease the moment
and make it yours

Life is what you make of it
fear and pain are just circumstance
everything and everyone is part of it
wether we choose to be or not
take a chance
live your life

LIFE!!!


To Good To Be True Written April 6, 2003

You said you loved me
When I looked into your eyes
I believed it was true
And now I can’t believe
How I was such a fool
To actually believe it was true

Chorus:
Anything that seems
To good to be true
Always is.
It always ends
Then you have no where to go
The he asks can we just be friends
So don’t believe everything ya hear

So I guess I learned my lesson
You’ll never be trusted again
And you’ll never be messin’
With my head twice
So say good-bye
This is the last time you’ll see me
So I hope your happy now

Repeat chorus x2

It’s always to good to be true
Whoa oh oh
you were to good to be true
Yeah
You were to good to be true
To good to be true
To good to be true
Oh whoa oh
To good to be true


Fool written March 7, 2003 (never completed)

walking down the street
stareing at my feet
look up for one second
and see you with another girl
now it all must end

Played for a fool
you think your so cool
you treated me so cruel
i'm ashamed i ever once loved you

Running home
to be alone
don't you know how much you mean to me
the moon and the stars could never compare
you hurt me deeply and

I was played for a fool
you think your so cool
you treated me so cruel
now were through
so now who's the fool?


Believe Written September 29, 2005 (well at least typed up)

I’ve been sittin’ around
Doing nothing
Thinking bout what you said
Everything I dream of
You say I can never achieve
well why don’t you leave
‘Cause I believe in me.

Chorus:
Anyone can do
What they set their mind to
It doesn’t take much
If you believe in yourself

Your supposed to be my friend
Or that’s what I thought
You hate everything I like
And dismiss everything I do
What can you do?
Do you know what I’ve been through?

Repeat Chorus

It doesn’t take much
To make a dream
It may be hard
But someday you will achieve
If you believe

Believe (set your mind to it)
Believe (concentrate on it)
Believe (there’s nothing to it)
Believe (you can achieve it)
If you believe

Repeat chorus x2

Just Believe in yourself

Too Late Written Sept 9, 2005

I’m sitting here alone,
thinking of the times
when we were together
you said you’d call on the phone
what were those lines
when you forgot
you broke my heart
now we’re apart

You left
said we were through.
You needed a break.
now it’s to late.
I’m not taking you back
you had your chance
don’t lose your balance
It’s to late

The light is gone
never to be found
though I see you time and again
it’s been so long
I feel so bound
memories seep
and I weep
we were in so deep but...

You left
said we were through
you needed a break.
Now it’s to late
I’m not taking you back.
You had your chance
don’t lose your balance.
It’s to late

So I hope your happy
you’ll never see my face again
don’t give someone else the blame.
did you ever once really care about me?
it was always now, never then.
don’t bother tryin’
cause I won’t be buyin’
you’ll just see me cryin’

You left
said we were through
you needed a break.
Now it’s to late
I’m not taking you back.
You had your chance
don’t lose your balance.
It’s to late

You left
said we were through
you needed a break.
Now it’s to late
I’m not taking you back.
You had your chance
don’t lose your balance.
It’s to late


It’s to late
(accept yourfate)
It’s to late
(my heart breaks)
It’s to late
(am I just second rate)

You left
said we were through
you needed a break.
Now it’s to late
I’m not taking you back.
You had your chance
don’t lose your balance.
It’s to late

Your to late
Accept your fate
oh it’s to late
To Late

You Written Sept 29, 2005

The world fades from view
Someone’s standing in front of me
But it’s not you, it’s not you

why did you leave,
Leave me behind
I thought I could love you
you said you loved me
What made you change your mind?
Can’t you see, you’re the only one for me
‘Cause all I want is you, all I want is you.

Why do I bother?
You haven’t a clue
What I’ve been through
It was always about you, always about you.

Why did you leave,
Leave me behind
I thought I could love you?
What made you change your mind?
Can’t you see, your the only one for me
‘Cause all I want is you, all I want is you.

You were always there for me
Whenever I needed you
Don’t you see?
Please tell me
When your coming back
‘Cause I’ll be waiting for you, for you.

Why did you leave,
Leave me behind
I thought I could love you.
What made you change your mind?
Can’t you see, you’re the only one for me
‘Cause all I want is you, all I want is you

Why did you leave,
Leave me behind
I thought I could love you.
What made you change your mind?
Can’t you see, you’re the only one for me
‘Cause all I want is you, all I want is you

I need you, I love you
I’m waiting
for you
(Repeat till fade)

For all my life(the one i love) Written Sept 29, 2005 *this was a song i was going to use for a movie i was writting the script for, that i never finished writing.. and probably never will *

Ever since i can remember
It's been you and me
side by side, best friends
and now i realize
the truth buried deep inside

For all my life
never thought you'd be the one
that i would love with all my heart
your the one i love

There were oh so many times
wondering if it was really true
if i truly did find
the one i'd love for all my life

For all my life
Never thought you'd be the one
that i would love with all my heart
your the one i love

Cause you were there for me
and i was always there for you

Whoa oh whoa, hey hey hey

For all my life
Never thought( All my life)
Your the one
with all my heart(the one)
your the one i love
oh yeah
the one i love
mmmmmm
yeah-e-yeah

Do you see me? Written November 17, 2005 *odd.. 3 days after my 17th birthday .. hmm.. *

You see me
and yet you don’t.
Feel like I’m frozen in time.
Out of sight and out of mind
that what I am to you
you look right through
Why do I mean nothing to you?

[Chorus]Do you see me?
Here’s some news for you
I’m standing right in front of you
I’m yelling in your face
standing in place
but you don’t hear me.
Trying to find something to say
that’ll get your attention today.


Well why do I try?
Am I supposed to cry?
Why do you keep looking through?
You know I’m standing there
do you even care?
What am I supposed to do
to get through to you?

Repeat Chorus.

You see right through me
no matter what I do
What am I supposed to be
to get you to notice me?

Repeat Chorus.

Do you see me?
Here’s some news for you
I’m standing right in front of you
do you see me?
I’m yelling in your face
standing in my place
do you hear me?
I’ll get through to you one day
you can count on someday
I’ll find a way.
I’ll get your attention one day
someday
oh yeah,
but by then
it’ll be too late.


Believe Revised Dec 8, 2005

I’ve been sitting around doing nothing
just thinking about what you said
everything I dream of
you say I can never reach
So why don’t you get up leave
I don’t need to hear it from you
I’ve got a lot riding on this
No more Procrastinating
My time is now
I have to see it through

‘Cause I believe that anyone
can do what they set their minds to
Why can’t you believe in me?
It’s not that hard
I’ve come to far
to quit
‘Cause I believe in me.

you were supposed to be my friend
I guess that’s what I thought
you hate everything that I love
and dismiss the things that I do
why can’t you face the facts
I’m not turning back
oh no

‘Cause I believe that anyone
can do what they set their minds to
Why can’t you believe in me?
It’s not that hard
I’ve come to far
to quit
‘Cause I believe in me.

Now It may seem hard
but it’s not
you want to make your dreams come true
just stick to it, and see it through
there’s no telling what you can do
just have some faith
and always believe in you
Oh yes Just believe in you

Believe
(set your mind to it)
Believe
(concentrate on it)
Believe
(you can do it)
Believe
(you can reach it)
If you believe

repeat chorus 2X
just Believe in yourself


and lastly my most recent written just over a month ago Dec 29, 2006. I've written many songs in between the previous and the following.. i just have no idea where they are.. at the moment.. if i find them i'll add them.. in the mean time.. yeah..

Hiding

I’m hiding from the world
Hiding from the pain I see
Hiding from what it deals to me
Safe inside this place I created
Where I can’t get hurt
The place no one can get into

Won’t you come find me?
Can’t you hear me screaming?
Are you there?
I’m calling
Calling out for you!
Heal my pain
The hurt I feel
Let me be me
Please set me free

I’m hiding from those around me
Pretending I don’t care
So I don’t have to face what’s really there
Hiding how weak I am
Hiding it all
Wanting to be strong
All that’s expected of me

Won’t you come find me?
Can’t you hear me screaming?
Are you there?
I’m calling
Calling out for you!
Heal my pain
The hurt I feel
Let me be me
Please set me free

I’m hiding from myself
Hiding who I really am
So I can simply belong
In the world I’m hiding from

Won’t you come find me?
Can’t you hear me screaming?
Are you there?
I’m calling
Calling out for you!
Heal my pain
The hurt I feel
Let me be me
Please set me free

Won’t you come find me?
Can’t you hear me screaming?
Are you there?
I’m calling
Calling out for you!
Heal my pain
The hurt I feel
Let me be me
Please set me free

'Numb' writen... just now.

Reaching out for someone,
Someone non-existant who is
Whispering in thy ear the tales of Death
Soft carreses meeting tear-stained cheeks
How can one move
When numbed?

Darkness swims slowly overhead,
Eyes half open, half shut.
Lying motionless on the chilling earth,
Attempting the faintest of whispers
How can one breathe
When numb?

Made up just now! Unrefined and everything! Enjoy.
A tale of a mistress, afraid of losing the thing hurting her the most


Hot and heavy
You bear down upon me with those menacing eyes
But I smile
And move my body to better fit yours
Giving you pleasure
While I receive pain

Tears can't touch your icy heart
Nor can pleas or anger
So I smile
And let you tear me apart from the inside
Wanting to catch your eye
But afraid of what they hold

As we reach our climax
I grip you in a death hold
Wanting you to stay
Knowing you'll leave me behind
This is a destructive love
A one-sided bonfire to which I am used as fuel

I lie in bed
Watching you dress yourself
Leaving without a word
I turn over and bathe in the scent you left behind
Trying not to think of you with your boyfriend
Wanting you all to myself

A shower
A nice homemade breakfast
And a mask I place upon my face
And once more
I am nothing to you
Nothing to anyone

At work I smile at my boss
My eyes dry
I enter the meeting room
A crack in my mask quickly glued back together
I greet your boyfriend with a firm handshake
And a warm smile

I know who he is
I see the look in his eyes
The one given to him by your tender love
He does not know me
I am your pet, kept in your closet
Hidden from the world

You come to pick him up
Not even a glance in my direction
I do not flinch
For my mask protects me
At home once again
I undress and go to bed

An hour passes
Once more you are on top of me
No discussion
No mention of him
Just your weight daring me to disobey
Pushing all but want from my mind

Again you leave
Again I go through my day without you
We repeat this needless dance
And you always come back
With his scent adorning your body
And his love surrounding you

This unrequited love is so painful
But I daren't tell you to leave
Afraid that you'll never come back
That you will replace your heat
With the Icy chill of your face
Turned from mine

Celestial Lullaby

Hmm...I wrote this one last year. It doesn't have a name because...I don't know why...

It's not me to blame,
I tried to play your game.
In the end I lost,
And my heart was the cost.

It's not my fault I couldn't make it all the way.
I gave up, I broke.
I eventually had to say...

Isn't it kind of funny..
How everytime you said I love you, you were lying through your teeth?
Where exactly do you hide the knife when it's safe back in its sheath?
And I think it's kind of funny...
How you thought you knew everything,
And in the end you don't know anything.

Maybe I'm just fooling myself
With the broken promises,
And the empty words.
But I know I'll never love another,
Just like the stupid birds.


Ahem...ya...A little rough. Heheh.

And then there's this song I wrote...again it doesn't have a name.


Where did the love go?
When did pain rear its ugly head?
The silence of love is my only light.
The tears are cutting the empty space of night.
They both hurt me like the sharpest of knives....

And you said you'd never leave me,
And that our love would never die.
But if it's supposed to last forever,
Then why did you have to lie?

-chorus-
You weren't there when I needed you.
You were never there when I cried.
Our love was my only anchor,
My will to stay alive.
So why should I keep on living,
If our love has withered and died?
-end of chorus-

My heart was in your hands,
I put it right into your grasp.
Now all that's left is shattered fragments,
Like broken peices of glass.
You used to be my dream worth dreaming...
My heart used to be a heart worth beating....

And you said you wouldn't hurt me,
That my heart would never break.
Now tell me why you smashed it,
On this darkened day.

-Chorus-

And you said you'd never leave me,
And that my eyes would never cry.
You said my heart would never break,
And that our love would never die.

Our love was my only anchor,
My will to stay alive.
So why should I keep on living,
If our love was only a lie?

Oh, so why should I keep on living,
When my love has withered and died?


Mmm....Ok...So...here's some more I guess....the rest are poems.

Silence in the shadows
Killing me slowly with your words
Your, "I'm Sorry's" and "Goodbyes".
Life escapes me everytime
Everytime you say goodbye.
Everytime you say it's time.

Bleed with me.
Over the bloody hills I'll go.
Over the bridge into the night.
Tears will call to my bleeding heart.
Here is where, tonight, we part.


That one was a name poem...And then there's this one. I guess it's kind of graphic so if you don't want to read it then you can skip it...

He loves me, He loves me not.
He loves me, He loves me not.


My friends say you don't love me,
I know this isn't true .
Your actions may be deceiving,
But your eyes tell me you do.

We're bound together by marriage,
A holy unbreakable vow.
I swore I'd never leave you,
And I don't intend to now.

My love for you is pure & real,
& yours for me is just the same.
When your fists do hit my cheek,
I know it is I to blame.

My heart is not broken,
And my soul did not die.
My ribs may be broken,
But atleast I'm still alive.

My wrists are cracked,
My eyes are black.
My lips have bled,
But you've never said,
"I love you not."

So beat me, tape me.
Cut me, rape me.
Hit me, break me.
Cuss me, take me.

Do with me what you wish.
I will take whatever you dish.


Bind me, gag me.
Whip me, bag me.
Throw me, turn me.
Kick me, burn me.

He loves me...

Kiss me, love me.
Touch me, hug me.
Hold me, mold me.
Teach me, learn me.

He loves me not...?

Slam me, sock me.
Damn me, clock me.
Scar me, bruise me.
Make it a doozy.

Make me scream, make me yell.
Make my life a living hell.
I'll never cheat, I'll never lie.
And I'll never leave you,
Until I die...


Sooo ya...then there's this one too....

You said I wasn't sick,
That I've just been in a slump.
But now I'm standing on a bridge,
More than ready to just jump.

I tried to tell you sorry,
For all of my hurtful lies,
But you just wouldn't listen,
When I tried to say goodbye...


And this one too.

You take everything I have,
Until there's nothing left.
You awaken the beast inside,
When I feel your hands upon my chest.
I'd like nothing more,
than to kill you in cold blood.
For everything you've done to me,
I'll drown you in the mud.
I'm bleeding even more now,
More than I ever have before.
I'm not listening anymore,
When you call me a fudgin whore.

My homicidal rage is calling,
My suicidal love is stalling.

The harsh words that you call me,
When you have me on my knees,
Makes me wanna cry,
But I won't ever let you see.
The pain that's in my heart,
Hurts more than the welts on my skin.
But I'd rather be torn apart,
Than feel tears drip down my chin.
You can beat me all you want,
Until it's all my body can take.
But let me tell you something...
My soul will never break.

My homicidal rage is nearing,
My suicidal love is clearing.


Ya, that one's not exactly done yet. And that's all for now.
