EvanescenceYou told me I was the only oneEvanescence3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
You used to be my immortal, my tourniquet
An imaginary anchor to hold on to
While I'm being crushed by the weight of the world
I am now haunted by your once gentle voice
Missing is the love I once had for you
But I shall not lose control like you did
No longer your star, but your sweet sacrifice
The lithium carries me farther away
Until I breathe no more
In my last breath I shall whisper softly
That I was good enough for you
While the doctors try to bring me to life
You hold my hand, look at me with dry eyes
And call me your snow white queen
Your Hand In MineThe meadow whispers a hushed sighYour Hand In Mine2 years ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Caressed by a gentle breeze dancing by
Blades of grass shiver then rest
Rise and fall like a dreamer's chest
The hum of crickets singing their song
A night of peace that won't last long
There we lay, alone with our love
Stars from heaven hang just above
Your lips so soft, brushing my skin
Its feathery touch makes my head spin
I look into your eyes, deep as the sea
You hold my gaze as you smile at me
The beauty of our love made us appear to shine
We'll always have each other, your hand in mine
True LoveSee her lying on the hospital bedTrue Love3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Doctors rushing, knowing it's too late
Holds her hand, says he loves her
Flatline ringing in his head
Tears fall, splashing on her lifeless body
Harsh lights, cold, blinding
Driving home, thinking of her
Empty house, lonely silence
Agony, heartwrenching pain
The closet, hidden deep inside
Searching, frantically searching
Grab it, load it, walk to the nightstand
Her smiling face, captured in photograph
Closed eyes, don't think
Next to his head, hands shaking
Deep breath, in, out, in, out
Look at her face one last time
Smile, say they'll be together soon
Pull the trigger, collapse, never to ri
Is It Love?It feels as though we have been friends foreverIs It Love?2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Though I barely know you
You're the one I always talk to
The only one who will listen to these words I choke on
I always wait for you to start conversations, though
For fear that you don't want to talk to me
Can you see what you've done to me?
Can you see my heart break a little more
Every time you walk into the room?
This love for you torments me
Until I can barely think
At least, not about anything but you
Maybe someday you will see
That although it seems like I don't care
I'm terrified of you leaving me
I let you in, now please don't try to tear your way out
Please don't make
GoodbyeThe earth, she waits for many yearsGoodbye2 years ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Through the bloodshed and the tears
She's seen the hate and poisoned things
Listens as the death card sings
Waiting for a certain day
A lonely path where flowers lay
Two paths will cross, eyes will lock
Time stands still on true love's clock
Hand in hand, they walk along
They face their fears, love keeps them strong
Finally, they stop and turn
Tears so loud, they streak and burn
A final kiss before they part
Rose red lips, a broken heart
The earth, she breathes an empty sigh
And watches as they say goodbye
Crimson LoveMy heart is broken, beaten and batteredCrimson Love2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Shattered like the most delicate of glass roses
It lies next to you in your bleak and desolate grave
The solemn hole you fell into when you took your final breath
Our life was sound, our love pure
Then we watched our walls come crashing down
As fate intervened in the form of reality
We heard the death clock's chilling chime
I'm left forlorn in this tragic world
I try to live but all in vain
It's not living without you
All that's left are my memories, my illusions, my delusions
The ominous blade, a reassuring friend in which I trust
Glistening with the tears I cry for what could have been
I
Golden MorningAnd in this darkness, never fleeting, always with meGolden Morning1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
You bear a flame, drawing nearer
To spirit away these lonely tears
Love so dear and tender, gentle warmth
Scare away the fighting demons
Before the dawn, dark and vile
Stay, my love, always near me
Cross all borders, fences shattered
Don't leave, walk into the evanescence
Of the sighing, swirling mist of morning
Oh, gentle love, formed of sun's golden light
Take us far above the sorrows of this sad night
Truth and FalsehoodOne day, Truth and Falsehood met at an inn, both weary from their travels. "My old friend!" cried Truth, "Come, allow me to buy you a drink." So they drank and exchanged stories of their travels. As they talked, Envy walked into the inn. Upon seeing Truth and Falsehood, Envy grew jealous of their friendship. Envy decided to find a way to make them hate each other. Now, it so happened that Greed was staying at the same inn. Envy met with Greed to form a plan. "Look at those two," Envy hissed. "They can't be friends, they never agree on anything!" Greed was only half listening. Envy knew this, but was ready for it.

Corpse BrideGirl so sweet, only seventeenCorpse Bride2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
A prettier sight you'd never seen
Long raven hair, soft pale skin
A heart every man wanted to win
Clear blue eyes, deep as the sea
As gentle a soul as there could ever be
Then one quiet winter's day
She ventured to where she used to play
A forest so thick, not bothered by light
But not too far in she was given a fright
For before her stood a man so strong
His piercing eyes watched her far too long
She turned, a sparrow in flight, too late
He held her fast, told her to wait
He meant no harm, he looked so sweet
And so they agreed from then on they'd meet
Every day they were together in secret
She f
Fallen StarLying on the ground, head throbbingFallen Star3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Opens her eyes, looks up at the sky
Confused thoughts overflowing in her mind
Tries to sit up, head begins to spin
Aching body protests, injured from the fall
She looks to the shining stars, her sisters in the heavens
Daughters of the moon, glowing like fireflies in the summer
She begins to remember, like a memory long since past
A rip in the sky, a passage between Heaven and Earth
Curiousity grabbed hold of her, enticing her to look within
Stumble into it, plunging into the land under the moon
Where humans walk in the shadow of places forgotten by the sun
A dark place, not the grand world she w

Sky Of FireThis morning I woke up to something wonderfulSky Of Fire3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
The very sky itself appeared to be on fire
So beautiful was the sight that my soul wished to cry out
And my heart sing to the heavens
Do you think this strange?
I beg of you to hear me out, for I don't
What I find strange is the wonderful gifts of nature
Being ignored all around us
Yet far worse are the people
Who acknowledge these beautiful things
Though are unmoved by them
It makes me wonder how we can live
Through our lives of pain and misery
Without the little joys in life to keep us sane

We knew that our love was true
Living in a dream
Our love was proven
By the wedding bands we wore
'Til death do us part
Then one dreadful day
When bombs fell and the guns roared
You had to leave me
I woke each mo(u)rning
Alone and scared in our bed
Pillow damp with tears
Inside my notebook
I write, 'When the rich wage war
It's the poor who die'

Wish upon a falling star
To see you again
At last, late one night
I can see you from the porch
Where I sat weeping
I run to you and
Under moonlight we embrace
I smile through my tears
The stars all watch us

He can't find her,
She's been gone since yesterday,
He told me,
That when she left,
She said she wasn't coming home,
All she took,
Was pen and paper,
So that she can say goodbye,
When her words leave.
Have you seen her?
She's needed,
And missed,
He can't find her,
But he will,
Because he has to,
He loves her,
So he'll find her,
And he'll be okay,
Because she'll be okay.
Have you seen her?
She went down the darker road,
You might have seen her on the way,
I hope she's happy now,
He loved her so dearly,
But she has what she wanted,
He'll miss her,
When he truly knows she's gone,
Though she still lo
