Give me a chance
Just to show you

Loving AngelsLoving Angels7 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
There are angels among us
They all come from above
Angels that bring us
Pain, suffering and love
Is it wrong to love an angel ?
Can we even dare ?
Cannot hope that
They will ever care
Not worthy of their beauty
Never to recieve any passion
They may only sometimes
Show us compassion
We all have our angels
Making our hearts beat higher
Burning in our hearts
Scorching like fire
Deep in our heart they will live
Make us face all of our fears
Walking upon shattered dreams
We walk and shed our tears
But do our angels know
Do they suspect ?
A tiny place in their hearts
Is all we ever expect
Like the air for my heart
I tell

I Write Sins Not TragediesI have told tales of my past tragedies…I Write Sins Not Tragedies7 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
But alas they do not make for great stories…
They're only purpose is to sadden, or to enlighten…
No one really wants to hear stories of your sorrows,
Nor do they wish to hear of mine…
So I shall tell them tales of what they want to hear,
What everyone wants to hear…
So why tell a tragedy…
When I can tell a tale of an exciting sin…
Why tell a tragedy …
When I can tell a tale of stupidity…
Why tell a tale of a tragedy…
I'll tell you why,
Because maybe my sad story,
Can keep someone else from having experience it…

where all men are not created equal
and marriage does not equal love.

Cold steel
Binding you to your actions.

I Remember YouWhen I hear your nameI Remember You7 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Darkness surrounds my mind
My heart starts to break
My soul begins to ache
I see your face
I start to cry
Think to myself
Why did you die?
When I think I hear your voice
I look around in hast
Then I realize it's not you
And I get a stone cold face
When I remember you
I see your face
I hear your voice
And I scream out loud
Why did you leave me?
I don't know why you left
but you left me all the same
All alone no one around
No one to keep me sane
I miss you so much
I cry all the time
Going out of my mind
The pains to sharp to deal with
I know I'll see you again

and fell out and then we could see
outside our round straight lines
you who try to crush the underdog
we'll bite you back and make you scream
don't make me laugh
I find you hilarious but I do not laugh
what would you say if I did?
would I care?
you live for the blurs you see and call it fun
you live for the fog you feel inside you
you live for the sake of being a dumb ass
and I live for the sake of being everything you'll never be
you sit and take it in and fade away
and I will burn strong
while you burn out
and when you're gone I will laugh
not because I am still here
but for the fact I was not stupid

Deep thoughts
Fill up my head
Where did it go wrong
Was it something I said?
I said sorry a million times
But no matter how hard I try
I can't bring you back to me
All thats left to do is cry
You took your life
Thats when you took my heart
I knew nothing could last forever
I knew that from the start
I sometimes think I'm a fool
Maybe we shouldn't have met
Then maybe you'd still be alive
Should this I regret?
Now that you're gone
Nothing can bring you back to me
Nothing can and nothing will
Because you have set yourself free
Maybe someday I'll meet you in heaven
And everything will be ok
Everything will be back to normal

To wait for you,
to fill what I lack.
Always a day closer,
always and emotion farther.
All I can think of is you,

Days always seem longer,
Weeks travel slower.
Slowly falling for you,
my heart only needs you.

I never felt
Haunting eyes that
Cause me to melt
Pursued by a dream
That will never be
Heartache chains
That no one can see
Ghostly caresses that
Tingle my spine
Whispered wooing,
A tired, old line
Tears behind smiles
And kisses and charm
Tears behind laughter
And friendship and harm
Dragged down by love
To his feet and his will
Sold slave by my heart
Until he had his fill
Mind betrayed by heart,
By body, by soul,
Pulled back into
Female's "traditional role"
Sweet sorrow in parting
Yet relieved, in a way
A chance to forget,
To start a new day
Yet here I still am
Locked to him all unknown

In all of Equestria, there's no pony quite like the Mail-pony of Ponyville. Her name is Derpy Hooves, and as the Ponyvillians say "Derpy by name, Derpy by nature." But they love her all the same, despite the mail sometimes being delivered late or to the wrong pony, because Derpy is the one pony you can tell your secrets to, and expect them to be kept.
Sometimes a pony of Ponyville needs to get something off his or her chest, but they don't want anyone to know about it. So they write it in a letter and give it to Derpy to deliver. And Derpy can tell, by the wistful look on the pony's face as they hand her

I pretend like I've seen him for the first time. I examine his outfit from under my eyelashes. The clothes I've seen in so many surroundings, his and mine. Bedroom floors and on toilet doors. His lips, eyes. They have a lot of tales contained within them, so many he's recollected to me, and so few he's held back so I don't get bored. It's a concern of his, that I may run away. I pretend he doing the same isn't a concern of mine.

RelativeMoney will not make you happy. Accept it and move on.Relative3 years ago in Philosophical More Like This
You will still feel depressed and lonely whether you're a millionaire or got enough for a weekly shop and rent every month if your human contact income has hit a wall street crash. If those kind of numbers don't add up, well. You don't have a lot left, now do you?
Make yourself happy. Have a good life with what you've been given. Learn. Shine. Inspire. Imagine. Never give up. Life is dreadfully short, and money is much more plentiful than that. After all, you could disappear from existence tomorrow, and that money in the bank will still have all the zeroes intact. Keep those best friends

There were only seven others on the deck with him, two of which he knew, but he didn't feel like socialising today.
