Take My Hand"Take My Hand"Take My Hand8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Please take my hand
And look me in the eyes
Make me understand
That I wasn't born to die
Don't say those last words
Please don't say its time
I can not concur
Its not time to say goodbye
I feel broken and alone
On many, many nights
But you make me feel at home
Like the stars in the sky
I've watched the world change
I've seen people come and go
Longing to stay the same
But this is never so
Just when things are stable
And at least one step I can take
That's when the cables
Yet again always break
So don't make me sad
Let's run away and hide
And no matter how bad
Together we can cry
Don't bring me down

The Death of MeThe Death of Me8 months ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
I cry into my sheets
And cry into my bed
I cannot stop crying
And think of instead
Where else to go
To forget about you
I'm scared so deeply
That you've become a tattoo
You make me crazy
You make me insane
And almost always
You're my reason for pain
I can't escape you
You're always there
It's like you're watching me
But you really don't care
If I try to love you
You just run away
And if I try to help you
There isn't a way
No matter the cost
No matter the pain
No matter what I feel
It's always the same
This cycle of anguish
It won't ever end
And by the time dawn hits
It begins again
I scream at you now
And you'r

Give me a soft kiss
Stay with me till the end
Let's stop playing pretend
Don't let my heart break
Let's learn from our mistakes
I'll let your love embrace
Mend me with your lovely grace
They never leave my mind
Your cherry colored lips
The roses that I have picked
And the sweetness that one day I'll kiss

Faces Of Mine
A smile once so true
It changed direction over time
I knew it was there because of you
But it was just belief based from a lie
Hope cannot be granted
And then stripped away
You have left my core tainted
With these wicked games that you play
May it be a lesson
Or turn it into fact and truth
Love won't be as important
As I use these scars as my proof
-
These eyes were once so hopeful
It was considered the rise after the fall
But my tears became unfaithful
As pain plunged out of my skull
No passion for the heart / No light for the dark
No love for the liars / No guilt for the defilers
No truth for the corrupted / No solace for

Different For a ReasonEver since I was young,Different For a Reason1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
I was the one,
At the back of the class
Different from the general mass
When I was bashed beyond repair
I never gave into despair
I told myself it'd be just fine
That I was special, not like those awful swine
I told myself I didn't care
What they said about me, but it wasn't fair
When their words still cut through me
Using my fists didn't help really
Little did I know
The people who ruined my childhood
Didn't have a decent future
Unlike me
Though now times still get rough
I am tough
Enough to survive
Not like the others who lived on other's pain
The thing that is insane
There are people who'll

Love's CrueltyThis is not a poem of love, but rather of love lost.Love's Cruelty1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
This is not of love's burning fire, but rather of its frost.
Love is neither kind, nor is it yielding.
It must be learned through experience, not by teaching.
Love messes with your brain, and with your heart.
It will take your pain, and turn it into a form of art.
Love gives you a glimpse of happiness, and then yanks it away.
Yet, still, it tries to keep you from running astray.
You thought you were happy, meeting the girl of your dreams.
But love is fickle and conniving, and so is she.
She'll steal your heart, and then your mind
Leaving only your physical self behind.
And while

The Art of SeductionIt dribbles down her lips,The Art of Seduction3 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
Dark and running,
Catching the corner of her mouth
Before slipping down to the curve of her chin.
She always gets frisky when she eats chocolate
She smirks at me,
Wrinkles her nose as she approaches,
Nips the soft skin on the side of my neck,
And slinks towards the bedroom door.
Seduction is like war mixed with roses, she knows that
Her hand catches the frame of the door,
She turns and cocks an eyebrow at me,
Beckons me forward with a finger,
And begs me to follow her into the room.
Saying no to her is as fruitless as an inter-city Eden
So I follow into her playground,

I'm the mouth of the sea
unsure, stuttering
over the needed words
like waves I groan, on your neck

I always seem so paralyzed
A soothing yet enchanting stare

A Cold LoverIce is a seducer,A Cold Lover5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
A lover with a slow smile
And gentle kisses that find every hidden place.
A World that knows the battering fists of Cyclone
Or the unguessable temper of Lightingstorm
Cannot be blamed for succumbing to Ice's advances
As he draws the cloud curtans and murmurs in her ear.
He is gentle, he is flattering,
And when the World wakes in the morning,
It does not matter so much that she wakes next to a stranger
Because of how handsome he looks on the other pillow.
He is even more beautiful in the light of morning,
And he makes her feel beautiful too.
Everything is beautiful,
Until the day she finds that his embrace is su

The cruelty of words REVISEDThe cruelty of words REVISED9 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
It starts with a whisper
and turns to a scream
the story of a girl
that is no longer free to dream
The gossip spreads like wildfire
and caught up in the lies
no one stops to notice
the tears filling her eyes
This poor, forsaken girl
tainted in the eyes of her peers
They can't understand her hardships
She's become a victim of her worst fears
The cruel words whispered behind her back
they don't know me and they never will
their words begin to be to much to bear
and the girl she wishes words could kill
The girl she sees the people stare
constantly fighting back tears
their words are like a hundred stabbing knives

That’s what I do, that’s who I am
Question me, try me
Hurt me and kill me
But know this, you won’t bring me down
Giving threats to make me frown
I’ll give a smile for your trouble
But I won’t trip on your rubble
Hurt me, kill me, I dare you to try
You won’t go no where
Your brain will only fry
Girl this life aint fair
So buy a ticket out of here
Or you’ll land in the very place you fear
